Wonderful interview/podcast, Sisters! And such a rich conversation going on with it. I’m so glad you chose to interview Fr. Jim Martin. He presents a great face for American Catholicism in the media – and his books are so accessible for ordinary people. Great questions! Great follow-ups!
Marsha makes it sound so enticing and I have read his books before and would love to hear this podcast. Problem is that the file can’t be found either here or on my itunes. Thanks so much Sisters!
Thanks for making the interview with Jim Martin available to all of us! Blessings on your work and your listeners in this holy season.
You are most welcome. Appreciate that you stopped by!
