Upfront with the Archbishop
82. The Forgotten Book of Tobit and World Day of the Poor
“A great river of poverty is traversing our cities."
Join Archbishop Smith as he talks about why Pope Francis instituted the annual World Day of the Poor, the (strange) Book of Tobit that Pope Francis wants us to reflect upon for this year’s World Day of the Poor, and what it means when Catholic social teaching talks about the “preferential option for the poor.”
