​Our world is currently going through an intense crisis of identity and crisis of meaning. As we have continued to conquer the world through technology and effort, we are at the same time suffering untold trauma from the lack of a real foundation of our lives. In a time that demands more and more certainty, we have never experienced such doubt and uncertainty. 
 
This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone of faith. As the Second Vatican Council stated in Gaudium et Spes, “The truth is that only in the mystery of the Incarnate Word does the mystery of man take on light” (GS 22), but our culture has relegated Jesus Christ...

While this great feast of St. Joseph is always an important day in the life of the Church, it takes on even more significance in this year as Pope Francis has designated this liturgical year the Year of St. Joseph[1], recognizing the 150th year since Pope Pius IX declared him the Patron of the Universal Church. ​

PictureChrist's Charge to Peter, c. 1616. Peter Paul Rubens
This past Saturday, Voces was somewhat different. Instead of having a typical formation talk, we staged a “debate” over the Doctrines surrounding Papal Infallibility. This was the first Voces of its kind, and despite that, it was a wild success in my estimation! It goes without saying, this is a very controversial and complicated subject.
​
​The main lines of argument and counter argument taken up during the debate included the following:
