What is the book of Ezekiel about? Who was his audience? Why does he do strange and extreme things? Why was he sent to the Lord's people even though he knows they won't listen to his warnings? Do Ezekiel's prophecies support Zionism?

Dr. Daniel Keating joins the show to discuss these topics. He's the author of a new commentary on Ezekiel for the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture Series.

The Classical Theism Podcast aims to defend Catholic Christian ideas in conversation. With the help of various guests, I defend three pillars of the Catholic Christian worldview: (1) the God of classical theism exists, (2) Jesus is our Messiah and Lord, and (3) He founded the Catholic Church. We place a strong emphasis on the first pillar, defending classical theism, drawing upon the work of Thomistic philosopher Dr. Edward Feser and many others.

Stephanie Gray Connors discusses the Catholic case against the practice of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) in great detail. She engages with many common objections, including:

• Embryos are not plausibly persons so IVF is fine.
• Isn't the Church pro-life so shouldn't they want more babies?
• If a building was on fire, would you save a 2-month old child or a shopping cart full of embryos?
