It's More Than a House - Faith, Foundations, and Four Walls: How Catholicism Builds More Than Homes


Listen Later

In this inspiring episode of It’s More Than a House, host Scott Engman sits down with Father Brian P. Christensen of the Cathedral of Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Rapid City. Together, they explore the spiritual and tangible connections between faith, community, and housing. Father Brian shares his journey from Air Force pilot to priest, the importance of home in both his upbringing and theology, and how the Catholic Church is partnering with Habitat for Humanity through the ambitious "Catholics Building on Faith" initiative—an effort to build four new homes for families in need. The conversation dives deep into Catholic theology’s emphasis on home as sacred space, the modern crisis of housing scarcity, and how acts of generosity and community engagement mirror God’s abundant love. It's a moving dialogue about turning belief into action—hammer and nail included.
