The Ongoing Gift of Cardinal Newman



Friend, 



In this first of three interviews, Catholic Action President, Thomas McKenna, discusses with our guests Edward Short and Karl Keating, the life and legacy of one of England’s greatest converts, John Henry Cardinal Newman. It is a wide-ranging discussion that shines a great deal of light on a figure who may not be very well known, even in the English-speaking world, but whose influence on that world is enormous.

In this video you’ll hear about Newman’s writings and accomplishments, which are the stuff of legend:



- His prodigious intellect and intellectual journey to the Catholic Faith by way of his study of the Fathers;

- His foundational works of theology and apologetics such as the Essay on the Development of Doctrine (1845) and his intellectual autobiography, Apologia Pro Vita Sua (1864), among others;

- The burning issues of his time that are also critical issues for the Church in our present day: refuting the idea of a “primitive church” and the “branch theory” of Christianity; 

- How he managed the ecclesiastical controversies of his day which may be templates for our own work of defending the Church; as well as

- Recommendations for getting more familiar with Newman’s thought and spirituality.



There is hardly a more valuable introduction to Cardinal Newman’s charism than this discussion by Edward Short and Karl Keating, who are knowledgeable about the great man and are well able to articulate his real value to the Church.



Make sure to take a few moments today to watch this fascinating discussion. It will leave you inspired and vivified in your faith – which is the very reason why Cardinal Newman took up his pen to leave us such a stunning legacy of spirit and life.



Your friend in Christ,
