Catholic Social Teaching is the Pope’s magisterial teaching used in order to help man understand his role in striving for the common good. To better understand and to draw fully the meaning of Jesus’ intention for our interactions with others we must look to the Gospel. Catholic Social Teaching and the Gospel are inextricably linked. Catholic Social Teaching expands Gospel’s message. In the Gospel Jesus calls us to love our neighbor as ourselves, this is the basis of all of the Catholic Church Social Teaching Doctrine. The Pope’s have interpreted God’s law from the Gospels and apply it to modern issues facing God’s people. We must more fully appreciate and utilize the Church’s position on such important and pressing issues. In order to make a positive impact on our society we must listen to the Church’s wisdom, and knowing that it is based on Christ’s teachings be willing to accept it and apply it in our lives.
This is why we feel it is important for Hot Button Productions to use the Catholic Church's teachings as a foundation for how we understand things.
