As Bishop Barron shows in his new book, Vibrant
Paradoxes, Catholicism is both/and, not either/or. It
celebrates the union of contraries—grace and nature, faith and
reason, Scripture and tradition, body and soul—in a way that the
full energy of each opposing element remains in place. In this
episode, Bishop Barron explores several examples of this
both/and embrace. A listener asks about the difficult passage in
Acts 5 involving Ananias and Sapphira.
