What happens when faith fades in the heart of Christendom?

In this eye-opening episode, Conor's son Peter shares his powerful reflections from a semester abroad in Europe—where once-thriving cathedrals now stand empty and sacred spaces have become tourist attractions. Peter contrasts Europe’s spiritual decline with the vibrant renewal he sees in American Catholicism, exploring how beauty, tradition, and family can reignite devotion in a secular world. Don't miss this thought-provoking and deeply moving journey through faith, culture, and the future of the Church—and how a new generation can reignite the light of belief in a darkening world.
