The Importance of Effective Communication in the Church | Matthew Warner

In this episode, we welcome Matthew Warner, the founder of Flocknote and author of Why They Follow published by Word on Fire. We discuss how he became passionate about the Catholic Faith and felt called to use his skills as a computer engineer to spread it. We learn about how this led to him founding the communications platform Flocknote as a way to connect unconnected Catholics with the great things happening in their parishes, as well as to re-evangelize the disaffiliated. We also will dive into the reasons why so many Catholics have left the Church and what we can do to lead them back home.
