Episode Topic: Bridge Builders Around the world, many observers are concerned about losing a sense of community as fewer and fewer people feel a responsibility to care for others. With a growing and often welcome emphasis on individual rights and freedoms, how should we—individually and collectively—think about our responsibilities to one another? In a world where ideological and cultural divisions seem to have deepened and caused terrible suffering, we are called to build bridges between people to face the challenges of our times. Be inspired by our speaker lineup of alumni and faculty who are bridge builders in a fractured world – just like Fr. Ted. Featured Speakers: -Rev. Austin I.
