Father Josh Stevens tells his story. A priest for the Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston, Fr. Josh serves two parishes, a college, and various other ministries. A graduate of NET and a chaplain in the United States Army National Guard, he is a man of many talents. In this episode, he talks to us about how he manages to do all this without going crazy.

What does the church teach about taxation? In this episode, we talk about what the Catechism does (and doesn't) say about being a moral citizen in terms of finances. 

In the context of this podcast, we don't advocate for any particular political solution. Please don't send us hate mail! If you do, we'll read it on The Catch in a funny voice.
