I
was thrilled to find that at Discerning Hearts website, Kris McGregor in a
podcast interviewed Rod Dreher on his book, How
Dante Can Save Your Life:The Life-Changing Wisdom of History's Greatest Poem which is a personal memoir on how Rod found
himself in a similar dark place that Dante finds himself, and how reading Dante’s
great work pulled him out of his dark place to find God’s grace. It’s a wonderful interview.
I
have not read Rod’s book, but I’m getting it. Right now it's only 99 cents on Kindle, so it's a great bargain. You can find it on Amazon here.
Here
is the inteview. It won't embed, so you'll have to go here.
Rod
leaves the interview with a really great quote, worthy of a Notable Quote
entry.
“If you surrender yourself to Dante, he
will show you to the Lord.”
Discerning Hearts is such a great web site. If you’re
Catholic it should be a go to place for great podcasts, prayers, and
meditations.
