The Catholic Files - John Paul II Writing on the Family with Father Donnelly - Season 3, Episode 16
from The Catholic Files · host Fr. Sean Donnelly
Join Fr. Sean Donnelly on this week's episode of The Catholic Files as our journey through the writings of Pope Saint John Paul II continues with a discussion of his Apostolic Exhortation Familiaris Consortio. Issued after the 1980 Synod of Bishops, Familiaris Consortio remains one of the Church's most important documents on the vocation and mission of the Christian family. Pope Saint John Paul II explores God's beautiful plan for marriage, the dignity of family life, the responsibility of parents, and the essential role of the family as the "domestic church" in today's world. Whether you are married, raising a family, discerning your vocation, or simply seeking a deeper understanding of the Church's teaching, this conversation offers timeless wisdom and practical insights that are as relevant today as when they were first written. Tune in this week to discover how strong, faithful families help build a stronger Church and a more hopeful world.
