Day 315: The Church’s Social Doctrine — The Catechism in a Year (with Fr. Mike Schmitz)

📖 Follow along with the official Catechism in a Year Reading Plan (https://AscensionPress.com/CIY)

Together, with Fr. Mike, we examine both our respect for the integrity of creation as well as the Church’s broader social doctrine. Fr. Mike emphasizes that we owe animals kindness because they have been entrusted to our stewardship, but also that we must have a balanced relationship with them. He then goes on to examine the Church’s Social Doctrine in our postmodern world, focusing on capitalism, socialism, and communism. Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 2415-2425.

Please note: The Catechism of the Catholic Church contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.
