(Program WGR11718)
Guest: Philip Lawler

While the worry, hype, and fear were at an all-time high, our guest today maintains that the Covid pandemic never even approached the lethality of the Spanish Flu of 1918. However, make no mistake about it, Covid 19 did deal a devastating blow, the effects of which we will live with for a very long time.  What was impacted? What will be the long-term effect? And what is the antidote? These are the questions our guest will answer for us today in Part 1 of Hope, Not Fear. Let’s welcome Philip Lawler, a graduate of Harvard, he has served as director of studies for the Heritage Foundation, as editor of Crisis Magazine and Catholic World Report, author and editor of ten books on political and religious topics, including the book we will discuss today, Contagious Faith: Why The Church Must Spread Hope, Not Fear, In A Pandemic.
