MUST READS

The MUST READS is a weekly summary or the best national and local news on the intersection of faith and public life. 

Common Good Forum

The Common Good Forum is where CACG will post and archive articles by prominent Catholic scholars and analysts, newsmakers and pastors, on the subject of the Common Good.  What does the Common Good mean?  How can it be applied in the current political context?  What claims does the Common Good make on our policy and our Church?  What kinds of policies advance it and what kinds hinder it? 

The Common Good Forum, June 19, 2013

 

Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro has established herself as one of the leading voices for the poor in Congress. We asked her to share her reflections on the first 100 days of Pope Francis’ papacy. Like us, the Congresswoman has been deeply moved by the Holy Father’s call to all Catholics to make concern for the poor the center of our life as a Church, and his call for governments to make concern for the poor the center of their political life.
