More Than Language with Deacon Charlie Echeverry

In this episode of Ave Spotlight, Oscar sits down with Deacon Charlie Echeverry to explore the intersection of Latino culture and Catholic faith in a rapidly changing America. Drawing from his book Blind Spot, Deacon Charlie explains why language is only a tool—while culture is the true gateway to evangelization. From Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime moment to the real risks of syncretism and cultural Catholicism, this conversation challenges the Church to move beyond simple translation strategies and toward authentic cultural integration rooted firmly in truth.
