Leonine Forum Coming to DALLAS| Mitch Boersma | Episode #137

Mitch Boersma’s visit to the BeatiDudes was a bit of a homecoming after he graduated from the nearby University of Dallas in 2008, where he switched his majors from Theology to Business.

Mitch is the Chief Operating Officer of the Catholic Information Center and co-founder of The Leonine Forum – a year-long program dedicated to giving young professionals in Washington a renewed understanding and love for the Social Teachings of the Church.

Originally from Colorado, Mitch holds a bachelor’s degree in business from the University of Dallas and a Master’s in Moral Theology and Ethics from the Catholic University of America. Before joining the CIC, Mitch held research positions at the American Enterprise Institute and worked as an independent writer and researcher on several book-length projects.

In 2013, Mitch was named one of FOCUS’ 30 under 30 young Catholics and is a member of their DC Advancement Advisory Council.  He is a member of Catholic Voices (2013), a Washington Fellow of the National Review Institute (2012), a Tertio Millenio Seminar Fellow of the Ethics and Public Policy Center (2011), and a graduate of the Summer Seminar on Catholic Social Teaching from the Society of Catholic Social Scientists (2010). Mitch’s writing has appeared in Legatus Magazine, Verily Magazine, National Review Online, and other religious and secular news outlets. He and his wife, Rosie, live in Fairfax, VA.

On Blessed are the Joke Makers, the Dudes must take on the persona of the ultimate foodie to address the prompt, “Catechism 2866 talks about ______.”

The TBD question of the day is to share some insight into the current book you are reading.

The show ends with a wild and unpredictable form of text message improv that you won’t want to miss.
