In this week's episode, Lori is joined by Father Donald Haggerty. He is a Priest at St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York and Author of the book, "The Hour of Testing" Spiritual Depth and Insight in a Time of Ecclesial Uncertainty.
This powerful book explores what it means to pursue holiness seriously in the 21st century, being sanctified in and through the Church's present-- or perhaps still impending--"hour of testing".
