Bringing the Word to Bear (Sunday Homily from May 17, 2020)

“Let's develop the art and science of making a religious argument. It's a good thing for the life of the Church. Do you know who you will join when you do this? You'll join Irenaeus, Origen, Chrysostom, Augustine of Hippo, Anselm, Thomas Aquinas, Bonaventure, Robert Bellarmine, John Henry Newman, G. K. Chesterton, John Paul II, and Joseph Ratzinger. You'll join this great company of witnesses, all of whom were arguers on behalf of religion.”
