Last week, Archbishop Timothy Dolan, the archbishop of New York, invited me to join him on his weekly Sirius/XM radio show on the Catholic Channel. A radio show is a natural venue for the archbishop, who, as most American Catholics know by now, is a friendly, warm, and genuinely happy priest. During the course of the interview, the archbishop shared with listeners his admiration for the Society of Jesus and his appreciation for the gift of Ignatian spirituality in his life. He also spoke movingly--and quite candidly--about a particularly deep experience he had during an eight-day retreat with a Jesuit spiritual director in Milwaukee. It's rare to hear a bishop speak so frankly about such a personal experience. Rare--and refreshing. You can listen to the whole interview here on our podcast.
