About this episode
Justin Hibbard continues the series on Vatican II by reading one of the four constitutions - Lumen Gentium (Light of the Nations) - The Dogmatic Constitution of the Catholic Church. This episode covers chapter 4 - the Laity (sections 30-38). In this episode, you will learn how the laity perform a critical role in the life of the Church by being examples of Christ to the secular world, living out their vocations as husbands and wives, influencing the world toward greater virtue, and assisting the clergy within the Church.
