On this week’s Prayerful Posse, Raymond Arroyo is joined by Father Gerald Murray and Robert Royal to unpack major stories shaping the Church and culture. The panel examines the U.S. bishops’ Supreme Court brief on birthright citizenship, the role of prudential judgment in immigration policy, and a Vatican investigation into alleged financial misconduct by a bishop in California.

They also discuss corruption and accountability in the Church, Germany’s controversial new bishops’ conference leadership, and warnings of a possible schism as the Society of St. Pius X considers ordaining bishops without Vatican approval. The conversation explores tensions over the Traditional Latin Mass, Catholic teaching and sexuality debates, and renewal within the Church.

Plus: Notre Dame controversy fallout, Pope Leo’s warning about AI-written homilies, surprising developments in Europe, and hopeful signs of faith—from rising conversions to courageous public witness in times of crisis.
