Who's Really Excommunicated? The SSPX Crisis Explained | Prayerful Posse
About this episode
The episode discusses the Vatican's excommunication of SSPX bishops and its implications for the Church and the Traditional Latin Mass.
The Vatican has excommunicated six SSPX bishops following illicit episcopal ordinations—but what does it mean for priests, the faithful, and the future of the Traditional Latin Mass? Raymond Arroyo, Fr. Gerald Murray, and Robert Royal break down the Vatican's decree, the canonical confusion surrounding SSPX, and what Pope Leo XIV's next steps could mean for the Church. Plus, the Posse examines controversy surrounding a Vatican celebration of a same-sex partnership, Pope Leo's meeting with Jesuit university leaders, concerns over synodality and the latest consistory, and why many Catholics believe the future of the Church depends on restoring a renewed focus on the liturgy. 👉 Subscribe to Arroyo Grande for in-depth conversations on culture, faith, art, and meaning.
