Episode 44: The economy is the best it’s been in fifty years. Unemployment among women and all minorities is the lowest in recorded history. The stock market seems to hit new record highs on a regular basis. Technology is advancing at an almost exponential rate. In fact, much of today’s technology was considered science fiction a mere decade ago, and none of it could even be imaged fifty years ago.
All of these things are advancements that benefit us, yet as a society we stay in a perpetual state of regression. Tune in for a full explanation!

FOR PASTORS: “The greatest tragedy in the Catholic Church is the ignorance of the laity.”—St. John Henry Cardinal Newman
What We Believe… Why We Believe It—the weekly bulletin insert to educate your parishioners!
No one disputes that today’s Catholic lacks knowledge of the faith. That’s the reason so many are leaving the Church (6.5 people leave for every one who becomes a Catholic)—they simply don’t know the faith. But the What We Believe… Why We Believe It system can change all that. Within a year of reading What We Believe… Why We Believe It, your parishioners will know exactly what they believe… and be able to defend those beliefs.
What We Believe… Why We Believe It works because…
It’s intrusive (70% of Catholics get 100% of their information from the weekly bulletin)
Each issue is in engaging
Far from boring catechism, each issue is highly informative of orthodoxy without being “highbrow”
With the JoeSixpackAnswers.com website and weekly webinars, your parishioners have a source where they can ask questions when you’re not available
