Catholic Education: Goals and Challenges (#403)

Greg and Cory explore the foundational principles of education and what sets Catholic education apart. They discuss how true Catholic formation goes beyond mere knowledge and skills to orient young lives toward knowing, loving, and serving God eternally. Drawing on historical and philosophical insights, they examine the challenges facing Catholic education in a secular world. The conversation critiques past shortcomings while emphasizing the need for intentional, competitive Catholic influences in children's lives. This sets the stage for the next episode on practical options for parents. SUPPORT THIS SHOW Considering Catholicism is free and ad-free for everyone, thanks to listeners like you.
