#104 - The Nuclear Football

Why Catholic?

About this episode

How much power should we give to our leaders? Or is the more important question: what are the characteristics we should scrutinize to whom we give power? In continuation of the series Catholicism and Politics, Justin Hibbard explores the notion of leadership, specifically as it relates to one’s character and the power given to them.
