About this listen

"It is the business of the artist to uncover the strangeness of truth." (Flannery O Connor)

Our lives are filled with questions, and our world is filled with answers: in the cloud, online, and in libraries of books. But the answers to the most important questions are rarely straightforward. In fact, sometimes, the truth is downright strange. But somehow, even in its strangeness, truth reveals a clarity that calls forth a response from the depths of one’s being. If you allow yourself to be open to the strangeness of truth, it can change your life.

In an age of loneliness and distraction, it can be easy to forget God's presence in our daily lives - until we are confronted with everyday miracles like birth, death, or marriage. In his new book, The Strangeness of Truth, Fr. Damian Ference meditates on the way that eternal mysteries such as the incarnation, resurrection, and the eucharist make themselves felt in the everyday, using scenes from his own life to illustrate and animate doctrine.

Plenty of elaborate theological treatises have been written on the subjects that he addresses, but his tone is conversational and direct. His insights are designed to awaken and remind his listeners of the radical truths that surround them - that God holds our world in existence, that he became a man, and that he sacrificed himself for us. Fr. Ference's writing is filled with wonder, reverence, and a keen observational sense, using concrete examples and crystal-clear observations to illuminate realities often spoken of as murky or abstract. The Strangeness of Truth will spark a renewed love and appreciation for the doctrines God has revealed, and help you see them with fresh eyes; not as they could be, but how they really are - beautiful, strange, and timeless.
