Saints of England - The Inner Life - February 10, 2026

The Inner Life

Fr. Spencer Howe joins Patrick to discuss Saints of England * (4:00) Why is England such a rich Catholic site? * Who was Saint Alban? * (9:10) – James - I was raised in an episcopal church. I wondered why they reject so much about the church and why do they refer to them as saints? * Tom - Literature of Shakespeare. Every time I ask questions...the answers I get are defensive and that had nothing to do with Catholicism. Everything that had to do with it usually made a mockery of the king. Wouldn't it be also making a mockery of the religion? is there hidden references to religion in it? (18:30) Break 1 * Madeline - St. Edmund Campion. He's my favorite saint. He's a powerhouse. * (24:51) What is the Aylesford Priory? (37:32) Break 2 * (39:39) Anita - John Henry Newman. He represented truth. Risked it all and approached it on an intellectual level. Fell in love with the Lord. * How did G.K. Chesterton influence the Catholic Faith? Resources: * Relevant Radio Pilgrimage to England with Patrick Conley & Fr.
