19 NOV. 2024 · In this episode of Author to Author, Dr. Cynthia Toolin-Wilson interviews Sr. Adaku Helen Ogbuji, CCVI, Ph.D., on her book Influence of Childhood Experiences on Faith Development: A Journey toward Wholeness.
This book examines how childhood experiences impact faith development in religious individuals. Drawing from semi-structured interviews with 80 consecrated persons, the book reveals that early experiences, whether positive or adverse, can deeply influence adult behavior, especially in religious life. Guided by theories like Erik Erikson’s psychosocial development and James Fowler’s faith development, Ogbuji explores how formative experiences shape adult attitudes toward faith, relationships, and authority. The book highlights challenges faced by consecrated persons, including lingering effects of childhood trauma, which can manifest as emotional instability, attachment issues, or even aggressive behavior in community settings. Ogbuji advocates for a holistic formation process, suggesting that therapeutic interventions and ongoing psychological and spiritual support can help religious individuals achieve wholeness. She also calls for well-trained formators who understand the complex emotional needs of candidates. Ultimately, the book emphasizes the importance of addressing personal histories to foster emotional and spiritual maturity, creating healthier, more joyful communities. The work serves as a valuable resource for religious formators, superiors, and all those interested in understanding how early life influences vocational development and overall well-being in religious life.

11 NOV. 2024 · In this episode of Author to Author, Dr. Cynthia Toolin-Wilson interviews Dr. Gerard Verschuuren on his book Disputed Catholic Landmarks (November 11, 2024)
Everyone’s life has landmarks: when you were born, when you graduated from school, when you got your first job, when you got married, and so many more. There must be many landmarks in the history of the Catholic Church, too. Just think of issues such as the Crusades, the Inquisition, the Protestant Reformation, the Holocaust, and several more. What all of them also have in common is that they are disputed, challenged, and contested—ripe for discussion and open to various interpretations. Is it possible to dispel misinformation from people’s minds that are filled with prejudiced opinions? Verschuuren endeavors in this book to do just that, separating truths from untruths, facts from fictions, and information from disinformation.

29 OCT. 2024 · In this episode of Author to Author, Dr. Cynthia Toolin-Wilson interviews Diego Passadore on his book Mary, the New Woman: A Judeo-Christian view of the Conception, in the history of Salvation, of the Divine Will in the Sovereign of Heaven.
Mary, the New Woman is an apologetic exegesis from the Bible, Jewish texts, and other Christian confessions, designed to bring the Dogma of the Immaculate Conception closer to the unbeliever and to promote the dignity of women in a world that objectifies them. Its invitation to conversion can help in Christian Unity and increase Christian faith through its instruction on how to savor the depth of the Bible and how to increase hope in the invisible advance of the Kingdom of God.

2 OCT. 2024 · In this episode of Author to Author, Dr. Cynthia Toolin-Wilson interviews Dr. Paul Murano on his book Refuting the Nonsense and Reclaiming the Truth: One Socratic Dialogue at a Time (October 2, 2024)
In our post-Christian, post-reason society, many have been formed in a narrative fed to them by the media and educational establishments. Its end is not truth or goodness, but pleasure and power; and it begins by the manipulation of language and the repetition of falsehoods. In the battlefield of ideas, Catholic Christians and all people of good will are left to fend for themselves. This easy-to-read book of dialogues cuts to the chase by uncovering common irrationalities and misunderstandings on key topics and themes, while clarifying basic tenets of Christian faith. Discussion questions after each chapter assist the reader in deciphering truth from falsehood. This book is a valuable tool for people of all ages looking for clarity in both secular and religious matters in an age of ambiguity and obscurity.
