G.K. Chesterton, “Orthodoxy” (pt. 15)
Join Fr. Fessio, Vivian Dudro, and Joseph Pearce as they discuss why happiness on this earth requires a fixed standard, a composite design, and a state of watchfulness. For Chesterton, the nature of this happiness requires a good Christian to always be in a state of revolution, not because he seeks to do away with the old, but to return to the old—to the goodness that which God created us before the Fall.Support the show
