Our Br. Alex Hostoffer, OFM Cap., Director and Guardian of our Padre Pio Center in Philadelphia, PA, was asked to share his thoughts in a discussion of The Franciscan v Dominican Intellectual Tradition, the Universal Banality of Sin, and the Hope of Renewal through Love. In this episode of The Culture of Life podcast, our brother sheds light on two of the main Catholic intellectual traditions-the Dominican and the Franciscan heritage of thought. His thoughts face humanity's long struggle with sin and how the world is "perishing due to a lack of love."
