  • E4 Preaching, Bishops, and Staying Catholic w/Meg Hunter-Kilmer
    Preaching, Bishops, and Staying Catholic w/Meg Hunter-Kilmer

    Meg Hunter-Kilmer, the "Hobo for Christ" (piercedhands.com), joins me to talk about how Catholics can encourage their priests to be better at preaching, the importance of storytelling in the Gospels, scandal in the Church, the failures of bishops, why she's still so excited to be Catholic, six books every Catholic should read, and the incredible story of Blessed Peter Kibe.

    The books Meg mentions:

    1. The Practice of the Love of Jesus Christ by St. Alphonsus Liguori
    2. On Being Catholic by Thomas Howard
    3. To Know Christ Jesus by Frank Sheed
    4. Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist by Brant Pitre
    5. Modern Saints, Vol. 1 by Ann Ball
    6. Modern Saints, Vol. 2 by Ann Ball
    7. You can follow Meg on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook!

    8. E3 Book Club: "A Map of Life" by Frank Sheed
      Book Club: Frank Sheed's Map of Life

      I'm recording from a mobile mic on my office floor this week, so thanks for your understanding on the sound quality!

      In today's inaugural Book Club episode for Creedal Catholic, we're taking a look at Frank Sheed's A Map of Life: A Simple Study of the Catholic Faith.

      I summarize each of the book's main chapters, which together articulate a coherent and cogent summary of the faith that is great for Catholics and non-Catholics alike. The end result: Frank Sheed's A Map of Life earns the coveted "Four Thomases" ranking. It's a great work and definitely worth an add to your bookshelf.

    10. E1 Reasons to Believe, Pt. 1 (Scripture and Ecclesiology)
      Reasons to Believe, Pt. 1

      In this first installment of Creedal Catholic, I (Zac Crippen) talk to the listeners about my choice to join the Catholic Church four years ago, and why it's the greatest decision I ever made.

      This episode focuses on the reasons for my journey from confessional Protestantism (Anglicanism) to Catholicism, with a focus on Scripture and Ecclesiology. Part 2 discusses soteriology and some of the especially "tricky" doctrines for Protestants--purgatory, Mary, transubstantiation, and more.
