The Good Catholic Life

Today’s topics: Br. Rex Anthony: The Hermit of the Little Portion Summary of today’s show: A hermit isn’t just a medieval figure of a nearly feral man living in a cave away from society. In fact, there are hermits in the Catholic Church today, including Br. Rex Anthony, a Franciscan hermit living in the Diocese of Portland, who joins Fr. Chip Hines and Michael Lavigne to discuss what exactly a hermit is, the difference between religious orders and hermits, and the story of how he went from being a non-practicing Protestant and firefighter to a Catholic hermit living a life of simplicity and joy in Christ.
