Ep. 4 | Should the Church Give Its Money to the Poor?

If a church has marble floors and golden tabernacles, is that a waste of money that should go to the poor? Fr Patrick Cahill tackles one of the most common objections to Catholic church architecture head-on. Drawing on Scripture, the story of David's temple, and the simple human logic of an engagement ring, he makes the case that love is never truly efficient. We give the best to those we love. And the Church gives the best to God, not at the expense of the poor, but alongside generous care for them.🔴 THIS SERIESFr Patrick Cahill | Episode #4This is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with Holy Family Mission.
