Carl Winderl Podcast Featuring “The Lost Parables of Jesus” Saturday, 3/22, ‘Live,’ at 10 a.m., CST
My most recent book of Mary poems, The Lost Parables of Jesus, will be the focus of a 2-hour podcast, hosted by Rachel Fulton Brown.
Award-winning medieval & Marian scholar at the University of Chicago, Rachel’s authored a pair of stunning books: Mary and the Art of Prayer: The Hours of the Virgin in Medieval Christian Life and Thought and From Judgment to Passion — Devotion to Christ and the Virgin Mary from 800 to 1200.
She’ll be ably assisted by K.J. Crilly a “poet and novelist” in her own right. So join the 3 of us as we discuss the “Good Vibes in the Gospel.”
Be sure to check out the details in the attached ‘poster’ for how and where to connect and tune in.
