Traditionally the title "Doctors of the church" is given to folks who can explain the faith.
At World Youth Day, they proclaimed St. John of Avila as the latest doctor. (not to be mixed up with John of the Cross who coined the phrase "the dark night of the soul"...).
But Chiesa has a news article suggesting quite a few might be put in the list in the next few years, including feminist icon Hildegard of Bingen and the popular Julian of Norwich.
If you like Gregorian chant, check out one of Hildegard's songs:
FINEST KIND CLINIC AND FISHMARKET.... Discussing medicine, culture, and the joys of cooking Pansit.
