Anthony Stine joins John-Henry Westen to assess Pope Leo XIV’s first year and whether hopes for major change in the Catholic Church are fading. The discussion examines Vatican actions involving same-sex blessing debates, synodal initiatives, Church appointments, and tensions over the Traditional Latin Mass and the Society of Saint Pius X. Concerns are raised that deeper questions surrounding authority, doctrine, and Catholic identity remain unresolved. The conversation also explores why some faithful Catholics feel increasingly discouraged or spiritually exhausted.
