The Unknown Modern Side of St. Pius X with Pedro Gabriel

Get the Book: https://pedrogabrielwriter.com/the-un... | If you’ve only heard about St. Pius X from memes or traditionalist talking points, this one’s going to surprise you. Dr. Pedro Gabriel is back with a new book that flips the script on the “Pope of Anti-Modernism.” Turns out, there’s a deeply human, reforming, bridge-building side to Pius X that gets completely lost in today’s Catholic echo chambers.

We talk about how he helped shape daily communion, reformed the curia and liturgy, and believed in reaching people with love before laying down the law. We also dig into how his legacy got hijacked—why some use his name to attack Vatican II and Pope Francis, and how Pedro’s book sets the record straight.

If you’ve ever been confused about “modernism,” or felt like tradition gets weaponized, this is a breath of clarity. Perfect for students, seekers, and anyone trying to place the Church’s story in today’s world.
