This week’s episode:
“Blessed are They”: Blessed Anne Marie Javouhey
“Among Women” Guest: Kathryn Jean Lopez
This week we look at an important book and subject that will help us in this election year, or whenever we need to discuss the
Catholic faith in a public setting, or at a cocktail party, or among friends and family — How to Defend the Faith Without Raising Your Voice. Today my guest is co-author of the book, syndicated columnist and NRO Editor-at-large, Kathryn Jean Lopez. I’ve been blessed by this book’s great principles, and I hope you will be too! Plus we’ll look at the life and social action of Blessed Anne Marie Javouhey.
