NatConOz: Dr Philippa Martyr - "The Future of The Catholic Church in Australia and Why It Matters"

  • Summary

  • My guest to today is Dr Philippa Martyr who is an academic at the university of Western Australia, an author, a regular columnist of the Catholic Weekly, and one of the more knowledgeable people about the state of the Catholic Church in Australia today.

    She has just released a new book “Witness: The Future Catholic Church in Australia” which contains probably the most comprehensive and UpToDate data about the true state of the Church and Catholic-branded organizations in Australia. It does not paint a pretty picture. However, she is a friend of the Church and the book also contains some thoughtful analysis about what should its future should look like.

    In our chat we discuss

    1. Why non-Catholics should care about the state of the Catholic Church in Australia today

    2. How dire things really are

    3. What the cause of this situation?

    4. Whether we need a Catholic DOGE to get Catholic organizations focused on their true mission.

    And much more.
