In this third and final part of our series on the Church Fathers (listen to Part 1 and Part 2), Bishop Barron examines four influential Fathers from the post-Nicene period:
- John Chrysostom (349 – 407)
- Jerome (347 – 420)
- Augustine (354 – 430)
- Gregory the Great (540 – 604)
A listener asks whether to pray for people who are sick or simply accept pain and suffering as part of God’s plan.
