This week Brett sits down with Mark Hornbacher of the St. Paul Street Evangelization Apostolate to discuss Hornbacher's critiques of Brett's Church Life Journal article "Hell is Good News."
Show Snippet: "This is, in response to, some debates in popular Catholicism around the efforts of people like Bishop Baron and the theology of Hans Urs von Balthasar, and at least some people say this idea that hell is relatively empty, or even potentially completely empty needs to be gotten rid of, not primarily because it's not true, which we can't actually know whether it's true or not. But because it will diminish our motivation for evangelization."
