About this sermon

Pope Leo XIV is not only the first U.S.-born pope but may also be the first "mathematic pope" in history, having majored in mathematics at Villanova University before studying canon law. Brad Jolly, a mathematician who has developed math activities for Catholic students in Uganda, joins to share the unique connection between math and the papacy, the benefits of a math-minded pope, and how math’s rigor could shape Pope Leo’s leadership. He also offers encouragement for those intimidated by math and shares how to approach it in a better way. ------------- EWTN News Nightly airs on EWTN weekdays at 6pm & 9pm ET. ------------ Don't miss an episode of EWTN New Nightly.
