Should you even own anything?

In this final Part 5 of our Rerum Novarum series Jonathan and Amanda unpack what the Church really teaches about ownership, how it applies today, and why it matters more than ever in a world leaning toward extremes.

Pope Leo XIII doesn’t just defend private property in theory, he lays out why it’s essential to human dignity, family protection, and real justice.

They also zoom out to talk about what it means to live Catholic principles in an age of rapid automation and AI. Can we prepare well? Should we fear the future—or step into it with discernment and hope?

This episode will stretch how you think about economics, human dignity, and what faithful stewardship really looks like.
