Paul Kollman and Dr. Kathy Cummings)","description":"<p>In this episode of Rhythms of Faith, Kim and JJ welcome Father Paul Coleman and Dr. Kathy Cummings. They discuss their new course on global Catholicism developed through the Institute for Advanced Studies Teaching Lab Fellows program. The course covers a variety of perspectives on Catholicism, including historical and cultural influences, student responses, and the challenges and rewards of collaborative teaching. The conversation delves into the importance of examining Catholicism through different lenses, the impact of immigration on faith practices in the U.S., and the dynamics of synodality in the Catholic Church. They also touch on the significance of Pope Francis's teachings, particularly his autobiography, and how global and local traditions shape the Catholic experience.</p><p><br></p><p>00:00 Introduction to Rhythms of Faith</p><p>00:25 Course Development and Initial Experiences</p><p>01:15 Exploring Global Catholicism</p><p>01:45 Field Trip to Chicago's Ethnic Parishes</p><p>03:40 Teaching Challenges and Student Engagement</p><p>07:03 Importance of Teaching Global Catholicism</p><p>10:07 Cultural Integration in Catholicism</p><p>17:02 Exploring the Synod Experience</p><p>18:34 Historical Context and Church Hierarchy</p><p>19:56 Pope Francis and the Synod's Impact</p><p>25:13 Liturgical Gifts and Cultural Differences</p><p>28:48 Fun and Reflective Closing</p>","author_name":"Rhythms of Faith"}
