Show Notes

Many of our contributors have a strong personal connection with John Henry Newman. Today's reflection comes from Dr Victoria Newman Seed, a lecturer in philosophy currently working at the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales.

"As a young lecturer named Newman I was intrigued by the work of the Venerable Newman, as he then was, particularly on conscience, but what truly captivated me, and has kept me his devoted acolyte, is Newman’s ability to make the same truths he discussed in his essays real, compelling and beautiful in his poetry and hymns."
