Liturgical Abuse, Priest Formation & Leadership w/Bearded Blevins & Fr. Anthony | Forte Catholic Podcast Ep 296
Fr. Anthony, Bearded Blevins & Taylor team up for this episode where they discuss liturgical abuse, how priest formation takes too long but often isn't enough & share a story about sacrificial leadership. And speaking of leadership...is Pope Francis retiring soon!?!?
Fr. Anthony is still in Texas so he teams up with Taylor & Jon to discuss a wide variety of topics. The start off with a hilarious video that swept the Catholic internet last week of a priest sharing the most hilarious intercessions at Mass. This leads to a discussion of liturgical abuse and what we can do about it(and what Jon has already done!)
Next, Taylor posits that priest seminary formation takes way too long and yet often isn't enough. The three amigos put their heads together to try and find a middle ground solution.
To close the show, they discuss a recent interview with the awesome head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Mike Tomlin. It's a story about how he held out one of his stars players from a game because it was what was best for the player. A true sign of leadership. And speaking of leadership...is Pope Francis retiring soon?!?!
We hope you enjoy this week's episode!
