In this episode, we sit down with Father Sean Grismer to talk about the divide between Catholics who identify as traditional and those who identify as charismatic. We unpack the common misconceptions each group often has about the other and explore how both expressions are meant to exist together within the life of the Church.

Rather than being opposing spiritualities, tradition and charismatic renewal each highlight important aspects of Catholic life—reverence for the Church’s rich heritage and openness to the living movement of the Holy Spirit. Father Sean explains how when we embrace both, we begin to experience the Church more fully.

Ultimately, the conversation invites us to move beyond labels and rediscover a faith that is both deeply rooted and spiritually alive.
