In the nineteenth episode of the podcast, Fr Parker talks about Flannery O'Connor's second novel, The Violent Bear It Away. O'Connor is a master story teller and a devout Catholic; these gifts allow her to craft characters who are terrible and hateful and show how they interact with the Grace of God in engaging ways. Because Fr Parker still sucks at uploading a podcast nineteen episodes in, this is the third time he's writing the description, so you'll just have to tune in to learn more.
