PWJ: S2E10 – AA – Joseph Pearce

One comment

Today is another “After Hours” episode! Joseph Pearce has written books on Oscar Wilde, Hilaire Belloc, J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis. He is, among other things, the Director of Book Publishing at the Augustine Institute and can be found podcasting over at Faith and Culture.

In this episode, Joseph and I will be discussing his book C. S. Lewis and the Catholic Church, which looks at Jack’s relationship to the Catholic Church and addresses the question asked by many Catholic C.S. Lewis fans: Why did Lewis not convert to Catholicism? Why didn’t he “Swim the Tiber”? We hope that all our listeners, regardless of denomination, will find this discussion interesting and very thought-provoking!

Wise Words of Wednesday: The Coming madness…

– G.K. Chesterton, Illustrated London News (August 14th 1926)

What is the virtue of chastity? Is it unhealthy, impossible or repressive? In today’s episode, Matt and I look at what C.S. Lewis had to say about this, the most unpopular of the virtues…
