Today we're here with Kevin Ahern, Orbis Books Author and Assistant Professor of Religious Studies at Manhattan College.
In this episode we dive into the challenges and opportunities the Church offers from the perspective of young people as it relates to today's social movements and the current political and religious divisions that exist not only in western society, but throughout the world.
As a young Professor, Kevin truly has his finger on the pulse of young people in the Catholic Faith. Not only from a domestic perspective but from a global one, with his extensive experiences with small Christian communities around the world.
