The Roman Catholic Diocese of Phoenix released a documentary-style short film that seeks to create awareness of a crisis in masculinity found in today’s society. Released after the promulgation of Bishop Olmsted’s apostolic exhortation “Into the Breach,” the new short film shows the urgency to confront head on today’s crisis in masculinity.
With regards to this crisis highlighted by the film, Michael Phelan, director of the Marriage & Respect Life Office said, “Historical circumstances have periodically devastated families, but we have never seen the disparagement of masculinity and fatherhood or abandonment of men’s responsibilities that we are seeing now. It calls for an unprecedented response from the Church.”
Earlier this month Bishop Olmsted said in a statement, “I encourage men to discover or rediscover their identity as men in Christ.”
