  • Ordo Amoris | Dispatch Faith
    Feb 2 2025
    This is an unlocked episode of our weekly Dispatch Faith podcast, which is typically released on our members-only podcast feed, The Skiff. If you enjoy the conversation, we hope you’ll consider signing up as a full Dispatch member today. President Donald Trump’s recent executive orders related to immigration disrupted the operations of several faith-based charities that aide migrants and refugees—and Vice President J.D. Vance’s comments on CBS News’ Face the Nation further drove a wedge between those groups and the new administration. Michael Reneau is joined by Mark Seitz, Bishop of El Paso and chairman of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Committee on Migration, and Matthew Soerens, vice president of advocacy and policy at the Christian humanitarian organization World Relief, for discussions about how their respective groups operate and how they’re preparing for what’s next. Show Notes: —Michael Warren on the clash between J.D. Vance and the Catholic Church —Michael Reneau on Evangelicals and their outlook on immigration reform Learn more about your ad choices.

A great balanced political podcast!

I really love the balanced view point they give on a variety of political topics. A great alternative to the far right and left media outlets.

Smart ideas from the right

This is the best of right politics without all the crazy, paranoid and unkindness that has become the norm with others. If you feel like social and fiscal conservatism is the best for our country but cant stand the crazy. Listen up.

Informative

The Dispatch has become my "go to" podcast to get an honest and straight forward glimpse into current events. The hosts are informed, engaging, and often quite humorous. If you are tired of the spin coming from the right and the left, check out The Dispatch.

If you enjoy The Eric Metaxas Show you will either hate this podcast or it may inspire you to remove your head from your posterior, stop eating lead paint chips, and throw away your stupid red hat. That seemed harsh, didn't it?

If the paragraph above made you smile, you really need to get out more. But hey, while you are driving somewhere really cool to social distance, listen to The Dispatch. You'll be glad you did, even if you find your eyes rolling back in your skull as Sara goes on ad nauseum over arcane legal minutiae.

Before you know it you'll be exclaiming "Laches" to your children when they come to you with a grievance and all your friends and family will begin to hold your opinions in high esteem. This podcast may very well change your life.
