Godward: A Lit-Wisdom Podcast

Casey•www.spreaker.com

An ex-professor continues the search for wisdom in literature, philosophy... and parenting. Try to avoid Mammon and Moloch along the way because this show affirms Jesus Christ! More reactionary than progressive, but trying to stay optimistic. Look for new episodes at least once a week.
