A Basilian Education and a Joyful Spirit w/ Fr. Kevin Storey
Fr. Kevin Storey exudes innate joy and enthusiasm for his vocation, missions and education. Dr. Richard Ludwick, President of University of St. Thomas-Houston had the opportunity to have a conversation with Fr. Storey, Superior General of the Congregation of St. Basil.
They talked about Fr. Storey's connections to Houston, Basilian missions abroad and their current presence on the UST campus. Fr. Storey shared his excitement about the faith life of the UST campus community and fervor for upcoming partnerships UST has in store. He also has a humdinger of a vocation story that left both of them laughing about God's timing.
Stewardship of the Environment
Climate Change and Global Warming are among the most important fights of our generation, and how we answer that call will affect generations to come. With that in mind we explore our role in nature.
In Part 1, Max Linnville reflects on the growing up in the mountains of Boone, North Carolina, and how those mountains have followed him throughout his life and impacted his faith life.
In Part 2, Darnell sits down with Fr. Paul English, Chaplain at the University of St. Thomas - Houston, to talk about the Basilian order and how they are pivoting to better answer the call to stewardship of the environment. With members in Europe, Canada, Central and South America, along with the US, they experience a wide range of climate effects and are learning to work across borders to bring about change.
In Part 3, Nicole teaches us about St. Basil the Great, the patron, but not the founder, of the Congregation of St. Basil. We learn about his early life, his contribution to monastic life and why he is a Doctor of the Church.
