S3:8 EP33: R.S. Thomas and the Lonely Soul

Today on the podcast, poet and priest, R.S. Thomas - a singular artistic voice that speaks to mankind's essential loneliness and how the absence of God (in the Augustinian sense) is often the most profound proof of His presence. A wonderful Lenten meditation as we journey through the desert. Journey out to a wild Welsh cliffside and listen to some poetry.    R.S.
