I recently participated in a panel discussion on St. Augustine’s notion of a people with my dear friends, Russ Hittinger and Fr. Michael Sherwin, OP. We mostly discuss Book XIX of The City of God. St. Augustine was a republican (in the classical sense!) and Augustine does not argue (contrary to what some have suggested) that only those who share the same religion can form a people–i.e., be united by common loves.
You can watch the entire exchange, hosted by The Lumen Christi Institute and America magazine, here:
I appeared on Haley Stewart’s and Christy Isinger’s podcast to speak about the philosopher Elizabeth Anscombe and what it would look like to upend certain motherhood narratives.

OK, friends, we are finally in Paradise, with our faithful guides Beatrice, St. Bernard, and of course, Professor Matthew Rothaus Moser. It turns out that perfect happiness is resting, delighting, and dwelling in the good. How does Dante manage to write 33 more cantos about rest? You should listen to find out, of course!
As always, I hope you enjoy our conversation.
Matthew Rothaus Moser joined the Honors College faculty at Azusa Pacific University in Fall 2020 after teaching for seven years in the Theology Department at Loyola University Maryland. He has won two awards for excellence in teaching: the first from Baylor University (2013), the second from Loyola University Maryland’s Center for Humanities (2016). In addition to essays and book chapters on the theology of reading, theological aesthetics, and theology and literature, he has also published Love Itself is Understanding: Hans Urs von Balthasar’s Theology of the Saints (Fortress Press, 2016) and the forthcoming Dante and the Poetic Practice of Theology (Wipf & Stock Publishers).
