Dr. Gregory Roper, Associate Professor of English, joins us for a converation about what Dr. Roper calls "the Nerian Option." We talk about the 16th century Italian St. Philip Neri as the model for youth ministry; as offering not a plan, but a set of attitudes and approaches, focused on joy; and finally, we speculate about how Philip Neri might speak to those of us taking to the streets in acts of protest today.
