Kresta in the Afternoon – May 10, 2024 – Hour 1
Guest host Marcus Peter discusses the thought of Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger with David Bonagura and Daniel Philpott.
Taking a Stand to Understand
Joseph Ratzinger once defined belief as “entrusting oneself to that which has not been made by oneself and never could be made and which precisely in this way supports and makes possible all our making.” In order to do and understand anything, we have to first take a stand on some ground, which is what the Hebrew word amen signifies. David Bonagura joins us.

The Eucharist is Justice
In Sacramentum Caritatis, Pope Benedict XVI wrote that “The substantial conversion of bread and wine into his body and blood introduces within creation the principle of a radical change, a sort of “nuclear fission,” to use an image familiar to us today, which penetrates to the heart of all being, a change meant to set off a process which transforms reality, a process leading ultimately to the transfiguration of the entire world, to the point where God will be all in all.” We unpack the meaning of this with Dan Philpott.
