So welcome to a special edition.

Well, let's call this, like, clerically speaking, extraordinary form.

I like it. I like that title. I think that's good. Maybe, maybe, I don't know if you'll be able to have time to do it this week, but maybe Nick would make a cool bumper for that one day.

But extraordinary in the sense of just there's more ordinarilyness to it.

Or, well, it's an extra more like outside, like above almost like it's like it's not, it is not

quite, it is not meant it is not the ordinary. And so it's it's really something special. It's something special and unique. Good.

Yeah, yeah.

So today we're going to do a nice little theological dive into an interesting question.

And so today we have as our guest back for a second time, now by himself, taking over the airways on behalf of St. Bernard's School of Theology, Daniel Drain.

So Daniel, why don't you say hi to the folks and introduce yourself a little bit?

And yeah.

Thank you, Father Harrison.

Very glad to be back.

My name's Daniel Drain. I'm a PhD candidate actually at the John Paul II Institute in Washington, D.C.

writing a dissertation on, broadly speaking, the thought of Hans Erz van Balthazar, but specifically, D.C. writing a dissertation on, broadly speaking, the thought of Hans-ers-Von-Balthazar,

but specifically questions about the relationship between creaturely freedom and God's divine

freedom. And for von Balthazar, those questions really come to their culmination in his

theology of redemption, and specifically of Christ's descent into the hell on

Holy Saturday. So universalism is very much my wheelhouse, my reading house right now.

I'm presently employed as an administrator and also a faculty member at St. Bernard's School of

Theology and Ministry in Rochester, New York, which offers four master's degrees and a

variety of graduate certificates, all synchronously and available digitally. So please check us out
