  • Episode 347: Sr. Adaku Helen Ogbuji on Influence of Childhood Experiences on Faith Development (November 18, 2024)
    Nov 19 2024
    In this episode of Author to Author, Dr. Cynthia Toolin-Wilson interviews Sr. Adaku Helen Ogbuji, CCVI, Ph.D., on her book Influence of Childhood Experiences on Faith Development: A Journey toward Wholeness.

    This book examines how childhood experiences impact faith development in religious individuals. Drawing from semi-structured interviews with 80 consecrated persons, the book reveals that early experiences, whether positive or adverse, can deeply influence adult behavior, especially in religious life. Guided by theories like Erik Erikson’s psychosocial development and James Fowler’s faith development, Ogbuji explores how formative experiences shape adult attitudes toward faith, relationships, and authority. The book highlights challenges faced by consecrated persons, including lingering effects of childhood trauma, which can manifest as emotional instability, attachment issues, or even aggressive behavior in community settings. Ogbuji advocates for a holistic formation process, suggesting that therapeutic interventions and ongoing psychological and spiritual support can help religious individuals achieve wholeness. She also calls for well-trained formators who understand the complex emotional needs of candidates. Ultimately, the book emphasizes the importance of addressing personal histories to foster emotional and spiritual maturity, creating healthier, more joyful communities. The work serves as a valuable resource for religious formators, superiors, and all those interested in understanding how early life influences vocational development and overall well-being in religious life.

  • Episode 346: Dr. Gerard Verschuuren on his book Disputed Catholic Landmarks (November 11, 2024)
    Nov 11 2024
    In this episode of Author to Author, Dr. Cynthia Toolin-Wilson interviews Dr. Gerard Verschuuren on his book Disputed Catholic Landmarks (November 11, 2024)

    Everyone’s life has landmarks: when you were born, when you graduated from school, when you got your first job, when you got married, and so many more. There must be many landmarks in the history of the Catholic Church, too. Just think of issues such as the Crusades, the Inquisition, the Protestant Reformation, the Holocaust, and several more. What all of them also have in common is that they are disputed, challenged, and contested—ripe for discussion and open to various interpretations. Is it possible to dispel misinformation from people’s minds that are filled with prejudiced opinions? Verschuuren endeavors in this book to do just that, separating truths from untruths, facts from fictions, and information from disinformation.
