The Weight of Glory
Prayer and suffering as schools of hope
In today's episode, Kale Zelden and I resume our discussion of Pope Benedict XVI's encyclical letter on Christian hope. Specifically, we read and reflect on paragraphs 32 through 38: Settings for learning and practicing hope. Benedict XVI speaks in these paragraphs of prayer and suffering as two "schools of hope."

I apologize for the audio quality of this episode: We had a hot mike which led to some volume issues. Nevertheless, I hope you're able to enjoy this presentation, which we recorded some six months ago -- December of 2020 -- in the midpoint of the pandemic.
