On the road to Vatican II, this time our show hosts ask, what’s wrong with Neo-Thomism, and what have been some of the long-term effects of attempting to put all the Church’s philosophical and theological eggs in that single basket for the last century and a half?  The guys also discuss how the need to balance reason and revelation led to Vatican I, which was the prequel to Vatican II.Want to suggest an episode topic?  Contribute financially to the podcast?  Or just compare notes on your favorite theological theories or pop culture hobbies?  Contact the guys any time tenthousandplacespodcast@gmail.comAn OSV Podcasts partner.

How Did Vatican I (and The Monkees) Lead to Vatican II?

Where do we go? What will we find? Hopefully, Jesus.... Join a former atheist, a former Protestant, and a cradle Catholic on a search to find Christ at play in ten thousand places. From metaphysics to Johnny Cash, He-Man to hermeneutics, how do Christian Catholics view the world differently and why does it matter? Take a deep dive into Catholicism and culture with friends Lewis Pearson, the philosopher, Alex Giltner, the theologian, and Justin Aquila, the parish pastoral minister. “[F]or Christ plays in ten thousand places, Lovely in limbs, and lovely in eyes not his To the Father through the features of men's faces.” – Gerard Manly Hopkins, SJ, “As Kingfishers Catch Fire”
