VOX SFX
Welcome to VOX SFX, a podcast which aims to explore the rich history and traditions of the Catholic Church over the last two thousand years. This podcast is designed to educate those who might not know much about the Church, and to those members of the faithful who may be unaware of the significance of our symbolism and ritual. Through study and interviews, we hope to share this vivid saga of antiquity with a new generation of listeners.

E97 - For The Common Good
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
When we build a responsible, responsive world that follows Christ's teachings, how do we ensure that the people He most sought to lift up - the poor, the prisoner, the stranger - have a place and voice in society? For those who fall through the cracks or find themselves in difficult situations, it can be hard to feel the presence of God or know where to turn. We hear messages of charity and consolation at Mass, but how do we bring the light of the Eucharist into the chaos of daily life, especially when daily life is complex or bleak?
Following our discussion with Fr. Mark Hoelsken about the foundations of Catholic social teaching, Nicholas sits down with Lisa Davey of Common Good Missoula, who shares the work done by Common Good Missoula and other advocacy groups, and explores the work yet to be done in order to create more equitable and compassionate communities.
