In this episode of the podcast I am once again joined by Dr. Maureen Day, professor of pastoral theology at the Franciscan School of Theology. We'll continue our discussion on Pope Francis's 2016 apostoloic exhortation Amoris Laetitia (The Joy of Love), and focus on the pastoral insights the document offers, and the complexities of modern family life. 

In part two of our conversation we explore the following topics:
