Catholicity of the Church Sermon by Rev Odea at Mt. St. Charles
Rev Robert W O Dea of Mount St Charles college Helens delivers a sermon on Catholicity of the Church. He frames Catholicity as universality rooted in the apostles and Peter and Paul, stressing the church as universal and open to all peoples across ages and empires. He argues that size does not measure universality, but the church’s inherent mission to leaven humanity with the gospel. He cites Augustine and notes Catholicism as a proper name for the world-wide, historic society founded by Christ and existing beyond any single time or place.
