MORE INFO
Fr. Randy Sly and Kyle Pietrantonio host compelling discussions with influencers for the Church of today as well as the future. The inspiring guests share kingdom-building practices and mutual support in the cultural battle at work in today’s educational climate. Each episode of Follow to Lead is designed to embolden anyone in the ministry of forming the faithful – Catholic school and diocesan leaders, teachers, chaplains and campus ministers, parents, and curriculum partners.
Follow to Lead is a monthly podcast produced by the Duc In Altum Schools Collaborative (diaschools.org) primarily for leaders and professionals in Catholic Education. Our goal is to help our audience listen for and follow God’s call in order that, both personally and professionally, we may lead others to God. Each month co-hosts Fr. Randy Sly and Kyle Pietrantonio will showcase stories of inspiration, observations and insights from Catholic leaders, well-known speakers, school administrators and others active in the educational mission of the Church. Follow to Lead can help each of us know better how God is calling us, and the role passionate Catholic education plays in spreading His message of faith, hope and love.
There has been a lot of criticism of the Catholic Church in the United States, but few critics of the Church have taken the time to really talk with her people. The book “True Confessions: Voices of Faith from a Life in the Church” by Francis X. Maier, fills that vacuum, as he talked with 103 bishops, priests, deacons and lay people from every walk of life.
In this episode of “Follow to Lead,” we’ll be talking about this book with Mr. Maier and what we can learn about the church as well as today’s Catholic educational experience.
As a Senior Fellow in the Catholic Studies Program at the Ethics and Public Policy Center in Washington, DC, Mr. Maier’s work focuses on the intersection of Christian faith, culture, and public life, with special attention to lay formation and action.
