On this episode, Gloria speaks with Professor Jessica Hooten Wilson, author of several books including The Scandal of Holiness, Reading for the Love of God, and Giving the Devil his Due: Flannery O’Connor and The Brothers Karamazov, which received a 2018 Christianity Today Book of the Year Award in the Culture & the Arts.

Gloria and Jessica dive deep into the Catholic imagination–exploring writers like Toni Morrison and the medieval mystic Julian of Norwich. She also believes in reclaiming the practice of reading, especially for children growing up today:

“I try to tell this to parents: it's not really about making sure that your kid recites all the history or knows all the facts,” says Jessica, “ It's just recognizing that they're being shaped by a worldview in which the story began before them.”
