The Quest Atlanta Catholic Radio

“Is it a sin to marry outside your faith?” This question opens a discussion on the nuances of faith and relationships, including interpretations of 2 Corinthians and the concept of being unequally yoked. Other topics addressed include the implications of Matthew 7:6 on sharing scripture, the nature of particular judgment, and the meaning of being poor in spirit.

Questions Covered:

Segment 1: “Blessed is He who Comes in the Name of the Lord!” (2 segments)

This Sunday we enter into Jerusalem with Jesus and follow His paths through Holy Week down the road to Calvary. They’re among the most important readings of the year, and we’ll unpack them with Rob Corzine. Segment 2: Fulton Sheen’s War on Communism (2 segments)

Fulton Sheen’s beatification is finally moving forward. He’s well-known for his extensive writings and teachings, but one contribution that is sometimes overlooked is his refutation of Communism. We’ll look at the book with Paul Kengor.

Was the American founding an Enlightenment invention or organic development of liberty? Liberal or conservative? Secular or Christian? American conservatives traditionally answered “both” to these questions. More recently, new movements on the Right-from national conservatives to neo-integralists to post-liberals to Christian nationalists-have challenged this conviction. Some even dismiss the founding as hopelessly secular. John Pinheiro answers the problem in his latest book, and he joins us.
