The following are among the questions we’ll be asking.
- What led you to study theology at Franciscan University? And how did you find the experience?
- Could you introduce us to Blessed is She? How does being both a writer and editor work?
- You’ve just published, with Blessed is She, your first book, Seek His Kingdom: A Meditation on Matthew. How did it come about?
- Have you used your co-authored children’s book, Rise Up: Shining in Virtue, with your own children? How does St. Thomas Aquinas inspire this book?
- Let’s go from the particular to the general! What is your favorite literature for children? And how do you form your children in the Western tradition through literature?
- As a frequent book reviewer, what are some of your favorite books and who are your favorite authors?
- What’s it like to live with Lady Philosophy”? Just who is she? And can Athens have anything to do with Jerusalem?
- You are hard at work on a book about virtue ethics. What are the key themes that you are exploring?
- You’ve noted that you write for a popular audience. Might we say that Scripture is written for a popular audience? And did Shakespeare write for a popular audience?
- Let’s close with a bonus question. Are there way more mosquitoes in Minnesota than out-of-staters suppose?
