Meditation on Love and the Song

Holiness for the Working Day ·

2026/04/23

On a dusk walk through Old Town, a chance encounter with a young man swooning outside his girlfriend's window becomes a meditation on one of the deepest hungers of modern life. Drawing on Joseph Pieper, Thomas Aquinas, and the medieval contemplative tradition, this episode explores why only the lover truly sees, and why that matters for everything from friendship and prayer to the quiet poverty underneath all our productivity. If modern life has trained us to move through the world like a camera,

A Meditation on Fortitude

Holiness for the Working Day ·

2026/04/16

What does it take to stand firm when everything in you wants to fold — not just on the battlefield, but in the garden at Chelsea, in the courtroom, at the kitchen table with someone you love? In this episode we look at fortitude, what Adam Smith called "the uniquely splendid quality of man," through the eyes of Thomas Aquinas, Aristotle, and some of the most vivid moments in Scripture, literature, and film. We start where the Church starts us this week — with the apostles, sprung from prison by an

Meditation on the Annunciation and "The Religious Sense"

Holiness for the Working Day ·

2026/03/26

Some years ago, a simple car ride with my young nephew became something unexpected, a window into the deepest structure of the human heart. His endless questions, his wonder at everything from trees to passing strangers, revealed something we are all born with but often lose, what Luigi Giussani calls the religious sense. In this episode, we trace that childlike openness all the way to the Annunciation, where Our Lady, fully awake and receptive, encounters God in a way that awakens everything and

A Meditation on Justice, Part 1

Holiness for the Working Day ·

2026/03/13

In this first part of a meditation on justice, we explore the classic definition given by St. Thomas Aquinas: "reddere unicuique suum"—to give to each person what is due to them. Beginning with powerful scenes from A Man for All Seasons and reflections from Aristotle, Chesterton, and the Christian tradition, this episode examines why justice is rooted in the dignity of the human person created by God. We consider the origin of rights, the meaning of "inalienable," and why justice ultimately begins

Meditation on Prudence in an Age Obsessed with Youth

Holiness for the Working Day ·

2026/03/07

A warm evening walk through Old Town turned into a meditation on something I keep noticing more and more in our culture, the strange fear of growing older. The line between youth and adulthood has become so blurred that many people seem to cling to the appearance and customs of youth long after that season has passed. The old milestones of adulthood have faded or been pushed further and further out, and beneath it all there seems to be a deeper anxiety about aging, meaning, and death itself. In this
