<![CDATA[10 Minutes a Day]]>Ten Minutes a Day is a daily podcast reading the social encyclicals of the Catholic Church.

Many people want to work their way through these important documents but struggle to find the time. This podcast offers a simple solution: ten minutes a day of uninterrupted audio recording straight from the texts themselves.

The project began with Dilexi Te but since Pope Leo XIV is trying to carry on the tradition of Pope Leo XIII, we go back and start at the beginning to the tradition starting with Rerum Novarum, the show moves through the Church’s social teaching one document at a time.

These encyclicals—from popes such as Pope Leo XIII, Pope Pius XI, Pope John XXIII, Pope John Paul II, Pope Benedict XVI, and Pope Francis—form the heart of what is known as Catholic social teaching, a tradition that seeks to guide society toward what many have called a civilization of love.

Just ten minutes a day.

It's an exciting and very relevant time for Catholic Social Teaching. Saint John Paul II taught that Catholic Social Teaching was an integral part of the new evangelization. And this has only accelerated under the pontificates of Pope Benedict XVI, Pope Francis and now Pope Leo with both Dilexi Te and Magnifica Humanitas. Scepter Publishers has decided to rebrand 10 Minutes a Day” as Social Doctrine Daily emphasizing that the Social Doctrine of the Church is just as much a part of the magisterium as everything else.

Exactly 6 Months from when Pope Leo published Dilexi Te!

- - - - - - -

Many people want to read the Catholic Church’s social encyclicals but struggle to find the time.

Ten Minutes a Day offers a simple approach: about ten minutes of uninterrupted reading from the documents themselves.

We begin with Dilexi Te, the first apostolic exhortation of Pope Leo XIV. In choosing the name Leo, he signaled a desire to continue the legacy of Pope Leo XIII, whose landmark encyclical Rerum Novarum began the modern tradition of Catholic social teaching.

After Dilexi Te, the podcast returns to Rerum Novarum and moves forward through the tradition—reading documents such as Quadragesimo Anno, Centesimus Annus, Laudato Si’, and Fratelli Tutti ten minutes at a time.

No commentary.
No debate.
Just the texts.

Ten minutes a day.
