Kresta in the Afternoon – April 19, 2024 – Hour 2

Burt Ghezzi discusses righteous Christian anger and Sister Miriam James shares her journey from darkness to light in Jesus.

 

The Angry Christian

 Is anger always bad? After all, wrath is one of the Seven Deadly Sins. But, used properly, anger can be a useful emotion. It is our anger at injustice and evil that can lead to change; our anger at the loss of souls that leads us to evangelize. We’ll talk with Bert Ghezzi.

Bert Ghezzi is the author of several books including The Angry Christian: A Bible-Based Strategy to Care for and Discipline a Valuable Emotion. Hundreds of his articles have appeared in the Catholic and religious press. He has been involved in all levels of religious education for more than 40 years and has served as a leader and teacher in several Catholic renewal movements. He has seven adult children and 16 grandchildren, is an active member of St. Mary Magdalen Catholic Church, and lives in Altamonte Springs, Florida.

From Darkness to Light in Jesus

Sr Miriam James entered college on a volleyball scholarship with the dream of one day working for ESPN. She had been raised Catholic, but never truly understood Christ’s love and pursued love in other places. Feeling empty and broken, she eventually rediscovered her faith and found her vocation. She joins us with her story.

Sr Miriam James Heidland is the author of Loved as I Am: An Invitation to Conversion, Healing and Freedom through Jesus. She is a sister on the Society of Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity. She speaks around the country about her conversion and has appeared on EWTN's Life on the Rock and at the Theology of the Body Institute.
