Pope Leo XIV and the Road Ahead for the Catholic Church

from FACTS · host Stephen Boyce

In this episode, we take a closer look at the newly elected Pope Leo XIV—his background, his first homily, and the early indications of how his papacy may chart a different course from that of his predecessor. From his missionary work in Peru to his evident traditionalist leanings, Pope Leo XIV steps into the Chair of Peter with a unique combination of pastoral experience and deep reverence for the Church’s heritage. We’ll explore his stance on key contemporary issues, his liturgical preferences, and what his election might signal for the future direction of the Catholic Church.Link to his homily: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYhfqwFaHTcIf you'd like to donate to our ministry or be a monthly partner that receives newsletters and one on one discussions with Dr. Boyce, here's a link: https://give.tithe.ly/?formId=6381a2ee-b82f-42a7-809e-6b733cec05a7 #PopeLeoXIV #Conclave2025 #NewPope #CatholicChurch #ChurchTradition #TLM #PapalTransition #FaithAndCulture
