Summary

In Fr. Mike's penultimate episode, Frs. John and Mike explore the distinctive anthropological phenomenon of the face - why we look for it and how it constitutes the fundamental experience of human life. Viewed from the lens of Dante's love of Beatrice, the face (or antlitz for Balthasar) expresses not only the fullness of the person, but truly the inner life of God. With an "homage" to Fr. John's mom, this podcast concludes with a glimpse into the Marian heart of the Church.
