The Pastor's Heart with Dominic SteeleSPECIAL: Will the Pope go to heaven? Protestants understanding Roman Catholicism in a Post-Francis worldThe death of Pope Francis marks a pivotal moment for Roman Catholics.What does this transition mean for the future of Catholicism and how should Protestants respond?From Vatican City, Leonardo Di Chirico offers a firsthand perspective on reactions in Rome, while Rachel Ciano provides historical context from Sydney. Many Protestant leaders have referred to Francis as a "brother in Christ," but Francis's final public act—granting indulgences during Easter—epitomizes the theological chasm between Catholic and Protestant understandings of salvation. His distinctive Marian devotion and frequent requests for prayers further high...

Pope Francis GenerationThrowback Episode - The Dignity of the Human PersonIn this throwback episode (from Season Two) Paul and Dominic discuss the first of the four principles of Catholic Social Teaching, the dignity of the human person. We are all tempted to reduce the value of others, to, as Pope Francis puts it, “despise the limit that another’s value imposes.” Since Vatican II, the Church has emphasized the infinite dignity of every human being and has explained the implications of that belief.
Faith has untold power to inspire and sustain our respect for others, for believers come to know that God loves every man and wom...
2024-04-151h 01Pope Francis GenerationWhat is Abuse of Conscience?This week, Paul and Dominic dive into a specific type of spiritual abuse, the abuse of conscience. An individual’s conscience is their innermost sanctuary where they are alone with God. However, that sanctuary can be invaded and violated by the malicious and the careless. Paul and Dominic give examples of what this kind of abuse looks like and how common it is. So common that, at times, the abuse of conscience is presumed to be the orthodox way of practicing the faith.
“We also find it hard to make room for the consciences of th...

Specifically—responding to some of the critics Pope Francis’s recent apostolic letter, Ad Theologiam Promovendam—we talk about how the pope’s theology fits in terms of the Ressourcement theology that dominated at the Second Vatican Council and its development since then.

2024-03-041h 12Pope Francis GenerationWrestling with FrancisPaul and Dominic start Season Five by going back and doing a reexamination of our name: Pope Francis Generation. Our name was originally inspired by a talk from Bishop Barron, and a play on the term “John Paul II Generation.” It represented a kind of Catholicism shaped by the kerygma with an emphasis on God’s desire to save all people, grace, human dignity, and prioritizing the marginalized. But more recently, as it appears like Francis is failing to live up to his own teachings when it comes to addressing clerical sexual abuse, the meaning of that name has starte...
2024-02-051h 01Pope Francis GenerationSeason 4 Wrap UpThis week, Paul and Dominic wrap up the season by reflecting back on some of the interviews and discussions this summer that have stuck with them. They specifically bring up the interview with Dr. Marcus Mescher and his proposal that there needs to be a new way of doing Church in order to address all the harm caused by the culture of institutional self-protection in the Church. They discuss if synodality is that new way of doing Church.
“In effect, doctrine, or better, our understanding and expression of it, is not a closed system, de...

The second story is about Archbishop Fernández's appointment to the head of the Dicastery of the Doctrine of the Faith, specifically his controversial kissing book and his handling of clerical sexual abuse in his diocese. Finally, we have a personal discussion about how these continued scandals affect our faith, our trust in t...
2023-07-231h 13Pope Francis GenerationFeeling Alienated in the ChurchWelcome to the first episode of season four! To kick the season off, we revisit the vision and pillars of Pope Francis Generation. At the core of our mission is the desire to present the goodness, tenderness, and love of God to folks “who feel like they might not belong in the Church anymore.” Paul and Dominic share about their experience of the times when they felt alienated in Catholic circles where they once felt at home. They then talk about the kerygma, theosis, and the teachings of Pope Francis as experiences of God’s love and goodness that have s...
2023-06-261h 11Pope Francis GenerationJordan Daniel Wood - Hell and UniversalismIn their third discussion with Jordan Daniel Wood, Dominic and Paul discuss Hell and Universalism. Using Pope Francis’s distinction between the role of the catechist and the role of the theologian, they put what the Church teaches about Hell into dialogue with Jordan’s theological studies. They talk about how holding the tension between the solid teaching and the theological proposals that venture further, without letting go of the teaching, can create a space for contemplation and for God to work.

2023-05-021h 01Pope Francis GenerationHas Church Teaching Changed?This week, Paul and Dominic discuss the development of doctrine. Has Church teaching changed? If so, how does it change? We draw deeply from Pope Francis, Pope Benedict, Pope Paul VI, and Dei Verbum to answer these questions. We also discuss what Paul calls the Hermeneutic of Traditionalism. This is the false understanding of tradition and authority that proposes that Catholics can use past teachings to critique, or even denounce, current teachings.

The first is that gay men and women are, in fact, relentlessly and tenderly loved by God and have a place in the Church. The second is that gay folks often experience harm in the Church ranging from outright discrimination and bullying to casual spiritual abuse. And, as Eve points out, those experiences are an “anti-catechesis” that proclaims that God is more like an abusive boyfriend than a loving f...
2023-04-031h 13Pope Francis GenerationIs Celibacy Better than Marriage?In this episode, Dominic and Paul talk about what the universal call to holiness can look like in the married vocation. Both of us grew up being taught that the celibate vocations are better than the married vocation. This idea can give the impression that holiness is for the “professionals” and lay people are exempted from living the radical life Jesus invites all of us to. However, since Vatican II, the Church has developed her teaching in this area.

Dave Morrier, a former campus minister at Franciscan University of Steubenville who pled guilty to rape and sexual battery. Liz was a student at Franciscan while Morrier was director of household life. This story felt like a microcosm of the abuse and cover up that plagues the Catholic Church as a whole, so we t...

Specifically, we discussed the toxic and bizarre opposition towards Pope Francis that has emerged in the past decade.

More specifically, we talk about if Catholics can ever disagree with Church teaching and, if Catholic teaching has been wrong in the past, then can’t it be wrong now?

It was a great conversation! So great that we are going to have Jordan on again.

2022-12-231h 04Pope Francis GenerationSolidarityPaul and Dominic discuss the fourth principle of Catholic Social Teaching: solidarity. In this conversation, they explore what the Church teaches about structural sin, the preferential option for the poor, racism, immigration, and care for the environment. These are challenging teachings that call us to envision a world that is healed and transformed by Jesus Christ.
Solidarity must be seen above all in its value as a moral virtue that determines the order of institutions. On the basis of this principle the “structures of sin” that dominate relationships between individuals and peoples must be overcome. They must be p...

2022-12-121h 04Pope Francis GenerationSubsidiarityPaul and Dominic talk about the third principle of Catholic Social Teaching: subsidiarity. This principle is rooted in human freedom and participation, it is concerned with empowering people to be agents in the healing and development of their own communities. Related to this principle is the right to a just wage, because it is through the fruits of our labor that we are empowered to participate in our community and in the world.

They share stories about how they first came across this “best-kept secret” of the Church’s tradition before Paul launches into the history and development of the Church’s social doctrines. Catholic Social Teaching challenges every political ideology and calls for Christians to embrace the “upside down” thinking of Jesus.

This document, while a follow up on the regulations that the Holy Father put on the old Latin Mass last summer, is primarily a catechesis about God’s desire for each one of us and how we can encounter him. The pope teaches that we really and truly encounter God—mediated through material symbols—in the liturgy, and through that encounter with him, he makes us divine.

They explore what it means to chastely love our children, our friends, and our business partners. Dominic and Paul also touch on how religious communities and leaders can love unchastely by manipulating others through fear and shame.

Turning to Scripture and the examples of the saints, they propose an idea of what a Christian’s mission is in the world that’s distinct from culture wars and partisan politics.

Lamp and Light Bible StudyExodus: The OT Tabernacle Bronze Laver-Golden Table Of BreadIt was at the bronze laver that the priests washed their hands and feet before entering into and coming out of the holy place.
Inside the tent, in the holy place, there were three items of furniture. On the northern side was the table of bread.

Lamp and Light Bible StudyExodus: The Tabernacle-The Coverings & The Bronze AltarThe tent of the tabernacle had four coverings. The innermost covering was of fine linen with intricate designs woven into it. The second covering was made of goats' skins. The third covering was made of rams skins dyed red.The outermost covering was always covered with the desert sand. But what did all these coverings symbolize?

Lamp and Light Bible StudyExodus: The Old Testament Tabernacle-The Tent And Its BoardsThe tent of the tabernacle is described in Exodus 26:1-27. It was constructed with boards made of acaia wood overlaid with gold. The Acacia not only symbolizes Jesus being both God [gold] and Man [wood]. It also symbolizes the members of the body of Christ today who although human, have been made partakers of the Divine nature.

Lamp and Light Bible StudyExodus: The Old Testament Tabernacle Part 3The wall of fine linen around the tabernacle presented a barrier to those who were not 'righteous before God' making sure that they would not have access to the courtyard. This teaches us that the thing that separates those inside the Church from those outside, is not a higher level of human righteousness, but that those inside are clothed with the righteousness of Christ.
When speaking of being "clothed with the righteousness of Christ, the Church teaches that the scriptures say that we are justified by the remission of our sins,and also sanctified and renewed in...

Lamp and Light Bible StudyExodus: The Old Testament Tabernacle Pt 2God's ways are not man's ways. In the Church this is where we must begin: With God. Not with activity but with God in the Most Holy Place. We must begin with the things that are "most holy" not only in the Christian life, but in our Parishes.

Lamp and Light Bible StudyExodus: The Old Testament Tabernacle Pt 1A large part of Exodus (Chapters 25 to 31 and 35 to 40) deals with the construction of the Tabernacle of God. In our study of Genesis, we saw the origin of the two streams of false and true religion in Cain and Abel. That finally ends in Revelation as Babylon and Jerusalem. The tabernacle is the seed from which the temple of God came later. It is a picture of the untimate Jerusalem, the Church, the dwelling place of God.

Lamp and Light Bible StudyExodus Chapter 19-33: PT 1Immediately after giving them the ten commandments, God gave the Israelite's a beautiful parable in Chapter 21 to teach them the spirit in which they were to keep His commandments. There he speaks of a Hebrew slave who is set free by his master because he has finished his six years of compulsory slavery. God's law had stated that in the seventh year all Hebrew slaves must be released. But if in the seventh year this slave comes to his master and says, “I love my master ... I will not go out free”- no longer as a slav...

Lamp and Light Bible StudyExodus Chapter 15-18: Israel In The WildernessNot only does God already know in advance what problems the devil is preparing for us, He has also made a solution for all of them, in advance! So you can face every problem boldly. You will never face a problem where God did not plan a solution.

Lamp and Light Bible StudyExodus Chapter 12-14After putting the blood on the door, the Israelites were all commanded to eat unleavened bread that night. that is a picture of our feeding on Christ Himself, the Bread of Life. It's not enough that we trust in His blood, we must feed on His life too. "For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son; much more, being reconciled, shall we be saved by his life." (Romans 5:10)

Lamp and Light Bible StudyThe Book Of Exodus: Chapter 1-4If Genesis is 'The Book of Beginnings,' we could entitle Exodus as 'The Birth of a Nation' -the nation of Israel. We saw the beginnings of this nation in Genesis. Now we see it as a full-fledged nation. In the first 15 chapters we read of their slavery in Egypt and their deliverance from Egypt. The rest of the book deals with the giving of the Law, a little bit of their time in the wilderness and the plan God gave for building His tabernacle.

Lamp and Light Bible StudyGenesis 39-50 The Life Of Joseph Part 2In jail Joseph meets Pharaoh's cup-bearer and thus gets an introduction to Pharaoh. You see how God's plan begins to work out slowly. It's not just that God protected Joseph from the evil that Potiphar and his wife did to him. He made the evil that they did to him to work out God's perfect plan. How would Joseph have ever met pharaoh's butler and got an introduction to Pharaoh if he hadn't gone to that jail!?!

Lamp and Light Bible StudyGenesis 37-39 The Life Of Joseph Pt 1Chapter 37:3: “Now Israel loved Joseph above all his sons, because he had him in his old age: and he made him a coat of divers colours.” The best way to destroy your children is by being partial to one of them. Jacob had already seen what partiality had done in his own father's home. Yet he repeats it in his own home. The result was that the ten older sons became jealous of Joseph and almost killed him. Partiality can have very serious consequences.

Lamp and Light Bible StudyGenesis 28-36 The Life Of JacobIn Chapter 28 we read of how Jacob goes away from his home. He is sent off by Rebekah to her brother Laban's place to escape Esau's wrath. Jacob was still unmarried and probably about 70 years old at this time.
It says in 28:11, "after the sun had set." Though that is referring only to a geographical fact, yet the sun had indeed set on Jacob's life, spiritually speaking too. He had been living for the world, and had grabbed and cheated. And yet God met with Jacob in mercy and told him that...

Lamp and Light Bible StudyGenesis 26-27: The Life Of IsaacToward the end of his life, Isaac's eyesight began to fail. There is nothing serious about that. As we grow older our eyes will naturally become weaker. But the sad thing was that Isaac's spiritual vision also was dim and clouded.
As we grow older, our outer man may decay. But our inner man should become stronger and our spiritual vision must be sharp.

Lamp and Light Bible StudyGenesis 24-26: Finding Your Rebekah/Giving Up Your Personal RightsTwo main lessons can be learned from these chapters. One, Abraham sending his servant to find a wife for Isaac is a picture of God the Father sending His Holy Spirit to earth to pick a bride for His Son Jesus Christ.
Two, Yield Your Rights to God-Remember that God owns all things. Through the grace and strength God provides for you, embrace the responsibilities that God has entrusted to you, but surrender to God the rights and expectations that accompany your responsibilities. This deliberate surrender of your rights and expectations frees those around...

Lamp and Light Bible StudyGenesis 24-25 Dating And CourtshipBefore Abraham finished his life, we read in Chapter 24 of his concern for his son. He sent his servant to go and find a bride for his son. There are many marriages mentioned in Scripture,but only two marriages that we see clearly as being God-ordained. One was Adam's. Eve was definitely God's choice. The other was Isaac's marriage. Rebekah was God's choice also. If someone asked me if arranged marriages were scriptural, I would have to say “Yes! I believe in marriages arranged by God!” God may arrange it through one's parents (as in Issac's case) or apart from...

Abraham was concerned about Lot. Lot still hadn't learned a lesson. After being captured as an enemy, he went back to Sodom to make more money. But Abraham didn't judge Lot. As a godly man, he prayed for Lot to try and save his life. This is the first recorded intercession in the Bible and it is for the salvation of souls. Lot was saved as a result of Abraham's prayers. But his wife was left...

Lamp and Light Bible StudyGenesis 10-11: Babylon- A Religious System And A Financial System UnitedBabylon is a religious system (Revelation 17) as well as a financial system (Revelation 18). Money and the work of God are joined together, and that's how Babylon is formed. And that's how people are deceived. They think they are doing the Lord's work, but they are drawn towards the work because there is money to be earned in it too! There is fame to be earned there too.

Lamp and Light Bible StudyGenesis 3 When Adam Listened To SatanWhen God sent Adam into Eden, He did not send an angel with him to check up on him. Why?

Adam and Eve were by themselves and could sin without being observed by any created being.

Lamp and Light Bible StudyGenesis 2-What Are The Needs Of My Wife?As a husband, it is your responsibility to nurture and cherish your wife, to instruct your wife in the scriptures, (that is what is meant in Ephesians when it says, “cleansing her by the laver of water in the word:”), and to meet her needs. You are to love your wife as you love yourself. (Ephesians 5:22-29, 33.) As you gain insight about your wife’s needs, it is imperative that you take steps to fully meet those needs. As you love your wife as Christ loves the Church, she will be motivated to reverence you. (Ephesians 5:33.)
