About this sermon

On "EWTN News Nightly" tonight: Reaction continues to pour in after the announcement yesterday that Pope Francis has released his reforms for the Vatican bureaucracy. EWTN Vatican Bureau Chief, Andreas Thonhauser, joins to tell us more about the document and why it was released now. Tomorrow, President Joe Biden is heading overseas to meet with allies and European leaders. At a White House press briefing, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan laid out the goals for President Biden's trip to Europe. Meanwhile, Secretary of State Antony Blinken has expanded travel bans for Chinese officials who repress religious and ethnic minorities. Author of "The Coming Collapse of China and "The Great US-China Tech War," Gordon Chang, joins to share his thoughts on this move by the State Department and why he thinks this is happening now. On Capitol Hill, lawmakers are preparing to take up a bill designed to improve America's competitiveness with China, specifically semiconductor manufacturing and scientific research. Finally this evening, March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. The fight with CRC is one that Catholic mom, Christy McDonald, knows all too well. Her husband, Jamie, lost his battle to colorectal cancer at the age of 48, leaving behind his wife and 3 children. Christy joins us to share what it was like when her husband found out about his diagnosis and whether he had been screened in the past.
