Why are stories so powerful—especially for children—and why do they matter so much for passing on the Catholic faith? In this episode of the Practicing Catholic Podcast, Taylor Kemp and Dr. Scott Hefelfinger sit down with acclaimed storyteller Paul McCusker to explore how stories shape the imagination and open hearts to truth.

 

From audio drama to family storytelling, Paul explains why narrative is such a natural way to communicate faith, form virtue, and spark meaningful conversations between parents and children. The episode also introduces Welcome to Hope Springs, a newCatholic audio drama created to bring families together through engaging, faith-filled stories kids and parents can enjoy together.
