Joseph Pearce, is an English-born American writer, and as of 2014 Director of the Center for Faith and Culture at Aquinas College in Nashville, Tennessee. More importantly to me, Joseph has dedicated large amounts of his career uncovering the Catholic messages sown within the works of JRR Tolkien. Joseph joins me in the Lounge Room to talk about the beauty in Catholicism, the state of Catholic apostolicity and some pearls of wisdom to be cherished from the realm of Middle Earth.
