Gus talks about the Eucharistic Revival we're currently in and goes over some of the statistics of Catholics who believe in the real presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist, body, blood, soul and divinity. He talks about the importance of getting that across and encountering Jesus in the Eucharist. Gus asks listeners to call in if they've ever encountered Jesus in the Eucharist and what exactly that means.
Also, Dr. Matthew Bunson of EWTN News calls in to talk about several Catholic news items of interest, including the Vatican showcasing first edition works by 17th-century philosopher Blase Pascal. Also, the Biden Administration has backed down from attempting to mandate that Catholic hospitals be forced to perform gender transition surgeries and the Vatican has published the Instrumentum Laboris, which is a list of the discussion topics at the upcoming Synod on Synodality. There are several hot-button issues, including LGBTQ+ outreach and the synodal process around the world.
Afterwards, Gus goes over a few more Catholic news items, including the technology company PublicSq. offering a $5,000 "baby bonus" for employees who are having or adopting a baby. Also, retired Quebec Cardinal Marc Ouelette is again being accused of sexual assault by two more women. Ouelette calls the accusations "defamatory" and is part of a defamation lawsuit he has enacted against his accuser.
