A JPII Generation

What do you get when a dining room is filled with 210 seminarians and priests, a handful of guests, and the founder of one of the fastest growing and most popular religious communities?

Today, we were treated to a lunch-time presentation from Fr. Benedict Groeshel of the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal. He spoke simply, about the state of the Church before and after the Second Vatican Council. In so doing, he focused on the nature and development of Scripture scholarship over the years. He comments were candid, and his insight sharp for he spoke to us as a man who has been around the "latest trends" in the Catholic culture for the past 43 years.
