Father Mike is truly a man of God. I got to listen to him on your Radio Talk Show a couple years back. Fr. Mike, Sister Briege McKenna and Ralph Martin were the best guests you ever had!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
Thank you!
ReplyDeleteYes, of all the guests who appeared on the program, I would also rank these three at the top. But.. I would also have to add two more names to that list; Dr. D. James Kennedy and Father Richard John Neuhaus, Editor-in Chief of "First Things" magazine. They both appeared shortly before their deaths and were such kind, generous, and thoughtful Christian brothers. I miss them very much.
By the way, it was Father Scanlan who introduced me to Fr. Neuhaus back in 1994, right after Fr. N published "Evangelicals & Catholics Together: The Christian Mission in the Third Millennium."
