Episode Notes

Today on the Catholic Morning Show

Dr. Luigi RussiOn the Thought of John Henry Newman
We’re joined by Dr. Luigi Russi, Assistant Professor of Education at the Catholic University of the West of France in Angers. A former Newman Scholar at the National Institute of Newman Studies in Pittsburgh (2023) and member of the Lyceum Institute, Dr. Russi brings his expertise to a rich conversation on the writings of St. John Henry Newman. Together with Bo and Elise, he explores the human longing for connection place — to family, to tradition, and ultimately to God — and how Newman’s insights continue to resonate today with conversations about ecology, environment, and place.
