37. That They May Be One: Ecumenism Between Catholics and Protestants (w/ Adriana Gonzalez)

Father Michael and Christopher Trummer are joined by guest Adriana Gonzalez to explore the topic of ecumenism, focusing on unity among believers, particularly between Catholics and other Christians. Adriana shares her personal journey of faith, highlighting her upbringing in a Catholic home, her family's involvement in the Charismatic Renewal, and her father's dramatic conversion from atheism to fervent faith in Christ. The discussion emphasizes the need for humility, the pursuit of unity through shared prayer, and the recognition of the Holy Spirit's work across different Christian denominations. The participants acknowledge the good fruits from other Christians, such as their love for Scripture, openness to the Holy Spirit, and zeal for evangelization. They discuss the importance of working together, attending conferences, and participating in common prayer to foster mutual respect and deeper understanding. The last part of the discussion focuses on what Catholics have to offer to Protestant brothers and sisters. Adriana mentions her upcoming documentary and expresses excitement about future collaborations.
