Today on “Jesuitical,” Zac and Ashley talk with Olivier Poquillon, O.P., who oversaw the reconstruction of the Catholic Church in Mosul, Iraq, destroyed by ISIS 2014.

On “Inside the Vatican, host Colleen Dulle and veteran Vatican correspondent Gerard O’Connell sit down in Rome to cover the second week of the synod, which covered contentious issues in the church, such as the inclusion of L.G.B.T. people and women deacons.

This synod, more than any other, is built on the premise that realities are greater than ideas.

Yesterday, the participants in the Synod on Synodality made a pilgrimage through the St. Sebastian catacombs, the burial place of at least three early Christian martyrs.

Emilce Cuda, the highest ranking lay woman working in the Vatican, joins “Jesuitical” to explain how “el pueblo”—ordinary, working class people—are at the forefront of a burgeoning synodal church.

The Synod on Synodality has the potential to be the church’s most extraordinary event since Vatican II. Will the synod's critics prevail?
