The Schemmel Lecture: The Future of the Synodal Church in the US

After a long hiatus, the Window Light podcast is back with the final episode of Season 2, a recording of the Frederik and Emma Schemmel Theology Lecture I delivered at Clarke University in Dubuque, Iowa on April 15. The topic of the lecture was “The Future of the Synodal Church in the US,” and I focused on how the proposals put forward in the final document from the Synod on Synodality not only promise to renew the Church, but also can serve as a prophetic witness to a world characterized by loneliness, polarization, and a declining sense of human dignity. Thank you to Clarke University for making a recording of the lecture available to share.

Interview: Taylor Patrick O'Neill

In this episode, I interview Taylor Patrick O'Neill [https://substack.com/profile/134845770-taylor-patrick-oneill], a professor at Thomas Aquinas College’s New England campus and a co-founder of the Sacra Doctrina Project, a community of theologians hoping to revive the traditional speculative and sapiential dimensions of Catholic theology. In our conversation, we talked about the Sacra Doctrina Project and its mission, but we also discussed the 20th-century debate between Thomists and the ressourcement movement, the state of academic theology today, the appeal of universalism, and O’Neill’s work on the doctrine of predestination.

Interview: Kent Lasnoski

In this episode of the Window Light podcast, I interviewed Kent Lasnoski, the president of San Damiano College for the Trades, a Catholic higher education institution opening its doors in the fall of 2025 that will offer students a liberal arts education combined with training in the trades. Lasnoski was previously a professor of moral theology at Quincy University in Illinois and Wyoming Catholic College. We talked about the mission of the college, its curriculum, and how a professor of moral theology came to be the president of a college, among other things.

Interview: Jordan Denari Duffner

Season 2 of the Window Light podcast begins with an interview with Jordan Denari Duffner, a theologian, speaker, and scholar focusing on interreligious dialogue between Catholics and Muslims. She is the author of Finding Jesus Among Muslims: How Loving Islam Makes Me a Better Catholic and Islamophobia: What Christians Should Know and Do About Anti-Muslim Discrimination. Jordan and I talked about her work, Pope Francis’s dialogue with Muslims, how Catholic parishes can promote dialogue with Muslims in their community, and how to raise children rooted in the Catholic tradition but open to religious pluralism.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
