How does Catholic Education Help the Mission of the Church?
Education has been a pivotal part of Catholic outreach and evangelization for centuries. Today we are sitting down with Monsignor James Shea, President of the University of Mary in Bismarck North Dakota, about how Catholic Education prepares us for living the Mission of the Church.
This is our final installment from the The Cardinal Newman Leadership Summit held at the University of St. Thomas in fall of 2024. In our first episode we asked the questions “Is college is still worth it?” We talked with Kevin Murphy from The Cardinal Newman Society about how college is a pathway for the discernment of God’s will for our life. Then Mark Brumley from Ignatius Press shared some of the key things to think about for those who are specifically looking at a Catholic institution.
In the second episode of the series, we asked “How the Catholic Church Shaped Modern Education?” We talked with Kyle Washut, from Wyoming Catholic College, about the History of Education and how it is intimately entwined with the Catholic Church. Then Dr. Helena Orellana, from the Institute for Psychological Science at Divine Mercy University, explained the role mental health plays in our education system today.
