Had a heartfelt conversation with Gerard O'Connell and Ricardo da Silva, S.J. about the legacy Pope Francis for this week's Inside the Vatican. Watch at the link in thread or listen in your podcast feed:






As we prepare for a new papacy, what will the church carry forward from Pope Francis’ reimagining of moral theology—a vision thoroughly traditional and courageously new? —Bryan Massingale in America Magazine americamagazine.org/faith/2025/04/…


An informed and insightful conversation with my colleagues, Gerard O'Connell, Colleen Dulle and Sam Sawyer, SJ.

Some frame this conclave as a choice: progressive pope (again) vs. traditionalist. Is that the right binary? The real question may be whether the church again chooses a pope shaped by religious vows—Francis was the first in 167 years. My America Magazine piece: americamagazine.org/faith/2025/05/…


This was my immediate reaction when we saw the white smoke… and then, by the end of the show, we had a pope. A real before-and-after moment. ♫ 'I am delighted': Pope Leo XIV becomes the first American pope as conclave concludes ♫ iHeartRadio iheart.com/podcast/962-va…
