Chris gives a legislative update to open this episode, and then welcomes Fr. Joe Forcelle, a priest of the diocese of Sioux Falls. Fr. Forcelle recently directed a one-day retreat titled, "God and Country: Prayer in the Midst of Conflict and Grace," which they discuss. He offers reflections on love of country through the lens of the 19th century short story, A Man Without a Country, by Edward Hale. Awareness and right-ordering of one's passions, prayer, and the virtue of patriotism (pious love of one's country and countrymen) are all important to holiness for those navigating turmoil in the civic sphere.
