From video: What I Admire Most About the Catholic Church
Published: March 4, 2026

Video Description

Continuing our series on Lent, we're looking at another one of the core practices associated with the Lenten season: Almsgiving. And to explore that topic, I'm diving into the riches of Catholic Social Teaching. Along the way, we'll pay special attention to Gaudium Et Spes, which I think is among the best documents the Catholic Church has ever produced (hot take?). Get ready to learn from the Deuterocanonical books, Bart Ehrman, Vatican 2, Pope St. John Paul II, Pope Francis, and Pope Leo XIV.
