Show Notes
Today on the Catholic Morning Show, Bo Bonner and Matt Wilkom discuss the unseen but lasting impact that retreats and small groups can have on kids and teenagers. Even when young people seem disengaged, these moments often plant the seeds of faith that grow later in life.
In the second half of the show, Bo and Matt welcome Peter Carter, director of the Catholic Sacred Music Project, as well as director of sacred music for the Aquinas Institute of Princeton University and St. John the Baptist Church in Allentown, NJ. Peter shares insights from his new book co-authored with Robert Cardinal Sarah, exploring the Church’s sacred music tradition from its earliest days through Vatican II and into today’s liturgical landscape. He reflects on the beauty of authentic worship, the challenges of modern liturgical confusion, and how sacred music ultimately draws us to the person of Christ Himself.
