With even greater resonance now for Catholics in the United States, here is a repeat of a podcast episode featuring Archbishop Timothy Dolan, the newly elected president of the USCCB.  During the interview, which first ran on his weekly Sirius XM show in September, the archbishop spoke movingly with me about his relationship with the Society of Jesus, his admiration for St. Ignatius Loyola, and, most touchingly, of a particular experience he had in using Ignatian contemplation during a retreat.  I’m somewhat biased since I’m a big fan of the archbishop–especially in his joyful proclamation of the Gospel–but I think it’s well worth a listen, even for a second time.
