#081: An Easy Essay by Peter Maurin

Eden Revisited

Peter Maurin was the peasant-philosopher who inspired Dorothy Day and co-founded the Catholic Worker Movement. He distilled his vision for a Christian social order into a series of short writings known as Easy Essays. On today's podcast, the boys digest an Easy Essay titled "When Christ is King." Maurin helps us cut through the noise just in time for Christmas so we can say with confidence, hope, and joy, "¡Viva, Cristo Rey!" From all of us at Eden Revisited, Merry Christmas!
