Fr. Thomas Joseph White
Fr. Thomas Joseph White - Fr. Thomas Joseph White is the Rector Magnificus of the Pontifical University of St. Thomas (Angelicum) in Rome.
Today Fr. Thomas tells us about his new book, Contemplation and the Cross: A Catholic Introduction to the Spiritual Life (Catholic University of America; March 2025), examines the mystery of Jesus Christ - His Crucifixion and His Resurrection - as the center of our spiritual life. Fr. White argues that the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus presents us with the essence of the Christian spiritual life and orients us toward union with the Trinity as the final aim of human existence.
