Our guest today is David Bonagura, a distinguished professor and writer, who teaches Classical Languages at St. Joseph Seminary in New York City and theology at Catholic Distance University. David also serves as religion editor for the University Bookman and is the author of several insightful works, including "Steadfast in Faith: Catholicism and the Challenges of Secularism" and his latest book, "Jerome’s Tears: Letters to Friends in Mourning." This unique book translates and compiles seven letters by St. Jerome, offering comfort and spiritual guidance to those experiencing loss. David joins us to discuss the profound impact of these letters and how they reveal a compassionate side of Jerome, often overshadowed by his more polemical reputation. Tune in to hear David share Jerome's wisdom on coping with grief and finding hope through faith and spiritual growth.
