On Wednesday November 4, Deacon Mike talked with Dr. Francis Beckwith, Professor of Philosophy in Church State Studies at Baylor University, where he also serves as the Associate Director of the graduate program in philosophy, and he is also an affiliate professor of political science. Dr. Beckwith is also a “revert” to the Catholic Faith, and spoke a little bit about his journey back. The major things that brought him back to the Church was his belief in the Eucharist, penance, Apostolic Succession and the Catholic view of grace. Then he and Deacon Mike discussed politics and law through the lens of our Catholic Faith. One of Dr. Francis’s arguments is that religious people cannot simply rely on the law, we have to actually make public arguments as to why our views are reasonable. Listen to this episode for a great conversation, and remember when considering the many ways in which you might share your time, talent, and treasure with God, always round up!
