About this sermon
Bishop Georg Batzing, the bishop of Limburg, Germany says that changes should be made to the Church's teaching on sexuality. In an interview published last week in a German magazine, the bishop said, " ... we have to somewhat change the Catechism on this matter. Sexuality is a gift from God. And not a sin." Reporter for Catholic News Agency Deutsch, Rudolf Gehrig, joins to talk more about this. The bishop challenged the Church's stance on homosexuality and sex outside of marriage. Gehrig discusses why the bishop is calling for a change in Church teaching on sexuality. Additionally Bishop Batzing said women should be ordained and that priests should not be celibate. The CNA Deutsch reporter explains how we can address that some bishops hold views different than that of Church teachings. Gehrig shares how the faithful are reacting to this. On another note, Cardinal Rainer Woelki, the leader of Germany's Catholic Archdiocese of Cologne, has submitted his resignation to Pope Francis. Gehrig tells us what led to his resignation and if there are any signs Pope Francis will accept the resignation. EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
