Prayerful Posse: Pope Leo’s Islam Two-Step & Female Ordination Shut Down
Description
In this episode of The Prayerful Posse, Raymond Arroyo, Fr. Gerald Murray, and Robert Royal unpack Pope Leo’s recent trip to Turkey and Lebanon, examining his cautious language on Islam, the rise of Christian persecution, and the Vatican’s struggle to speak clearly about the sources of violence.
They also break down a new Vatican report rejecting the possibility of female deacons and discuss why the Church’s teaching and tradition lead to that conclusion.
The panel tackles the widening tensions over the Latin Mass, kneeling for Communion, and the growing inconsistencies in liturgical practice across U.S. dioceses.
A leaked recording involving a Doctrine of Faith official and an FBI investigation raises fresh concerns about transparency and oversight inside the Church.
The episode closes with a reflection on Advent and practical ways to prepare spiritually for Christmas in a culture that often rushes past the season’s deeper meaning.
