The Real Reason Catholic Colleges Are Falling Apart (and How to Fix It) with Dr. Anne Hendershott
Description
In this episode, we uncover the real story behind the crisis in Catholic higher education with Dr. Anne Hendershott, author of A Lamp in the Darkness.
As a former FOCUS missionary, I saw firsthand how college can either ignite or extinguish a young person’s faith. Today, many Catholic universities have lost their way—but not all hope is lost.
In this episode:
- What’s really happening to Catholic colleges in the U.S.
- Why so many have abandoned their Catholic identity
- How financial and cultural pressures are shaping this crisis
- Which schools are courageously resisting the tide—and forming saints
- What role the liturgy and sacraments play in renewal
- What parents, students, and alumni can do to protect the faith on campus
If you’re a college student, post-grad, or a parent who cares about the future of the Church, this episode will equip you with hope, clarity, and action steps.
