Episode Details

In this rich and thought-provoking episode of Church Wisdom, Fr Eamonn and Matthias continue their journey through Dilexi Te, the apostolic exhortation of Pope Leo XIV, reflecting on the Church’s preferential love for the poor.

Exploring the witness of religious sisters in healthcare, the heroic charity of the Daughters of Charity of Saint Vincent de Paul, and the monastic legacy of Saint Basil the Great and Saint Benedict of Nursia, they examine how prayer and concrete action belong together. From hospitals and monasteries to prison ministry and the historic mission of the Order of the Most Holy Trinity and the Order of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mercy, this episode highlights how contemplation must bear fruit in mercy.

Challenging, inspiring, and deeply practical, this conversation invites listeners to rediscover how the Church’s social teaching transforms both hearts and society — and how each of us is called to love Christ in the poorest and most forgotten.
