PATRISTIC PILLARS - Fr Joseph Hamilton - Heroes of Nicaea: St Gregory of Nazianzus, Part 1

Fr Joseph and Fr Toby chat about the recent Jubilee of Youth, Pope Leo and Rome in the summer. Fr Joseph introduces us to the next hero of Nicaea, St Gregory Nazianzus.

Patristic Pillars is a series on Radio Maria England, bringing the Church Fathers to life with Fr Joseph Hamilton.

Fr Joseph Hamilton is the Rector of the Domus Australia in Rome and a priest of the Archdiocese of Sydney Australia. Prior to his appointment at Domus, he served as private secretary to George Cardinal Pell, until the Cardinal’s untimely death. Fr Joseph completed his doctoral studies in Patristics at Christ Church College Oxford and his license at the Patristic Institute 'Augustinianum' in Rome. Prior to entering seminary he worked as an investment banker. Having left the economy of Mammon for that of Salvation, he studied at the Pontifical North American College. A native of Ireland, he is a keen but mediocre (his words) surfer, and enjoys reading and cooking.
