DOCTORS, ASSASSINS, & OTHER TYRANTS
In this sequel to Love, Treachery, and Other Terrors, seventeen-year-old Augustine has a near-perfect life. Until he’s kidnapped by a band of highwaymen. As if tying him up and dragging him away from home wasn’t bad enough, the ruffians start spouting nonsense about how he is the illegitimate son of some horrible, honorless, murdering prince named Justin. Augustine, of course, doesn’t believe these vile rumors. By his mother’s own account, her late husband was the perfect man in every imaginable way. She would never lie to him about something as important as his father… right? In this quirky, medieval fantasy Augustine must find a way to escape his captors and uncover who he really is. It’s a story of providence, heroism, and learning to embrace the truth.

Becoming a Cultural Mystic with a Sacramental Imagination? Sr Nancy Ussellman & ‘A Sacred Look’
Looking to take your fiction-writing and move-watching to the next level? Join host Dominic and his guest, Sister Nancy Usselmann from the Daughters of St. Paul, as they dive into cultural mysticism, and explore how cultivating a sacred perspective can enhance your writing. Or change your life.
Through analyzing popular media, such as movies and music, you’ll discover how to tap into deep human yearnings and desires to create compelling stories that inspire and challenge readers. With valuable insights and practical tips, this show is a must-listen for any aspiring fiction writer looking to elevate their craft to new heights.
– Sister Nancy Usselmann’s book, “A Sacred Look Becoming Cultural Mystics,” emphasizes the importance of cultivating a sacred view when engaging with popular culture. It’s packed with tons of popular movie and music references and analyses.
– Popular media can be a reflection of the human person’s needs and desires, including the desire for communion, intimacy, love, purpose, and meaning in life, and connecting with others.
– Cultivating a sacred view can help individuals reflect deeply on the culture they experience every day, imbuing them with a sense of intimacy with the Lord while engaging with popular culture.
– Sister Nancy notes that while there is a lot of evil in popular media culture, many stories of the culture challenge us as human beings to be the best version of ourselves.
– Sister Nancy believes that superhero stories can offer the world a message of hope, truth, beauty, and goodness and that people are yearning for something more, ultimately for God.
