by John Huynh | April 8, 2025

Welcome to episode 5 of "The Good Word on the Street" with Dr. John Huynh, Director of Social Justice at the Diocese of Des Moines and Catholic Charities, Diocese of Des Moines.

Our rights don't come from governments or institutions, they come from our nature which is rooted in God. In Fratelli Tutti, Pope Francis explains, "the dignity of others is to be respected in all circumstances, not because they belong to the same group, religion, or nation, but because they are people."

The Good Word on the Street is an 8-part series with Dr. John Huynh as he breaks open the truth and beauty of Catholic Social Teaching with talks across the Diocese of Des Moines.
