In this episode of the Providence College Podcast, we wanted to get you in the mood for Christmas. We are featuring a lecture given by Rev. James Sabak, OFM, a Franciscan priest and assistant professor of theology. Titled, “Finding the Ever-Elusive Christ in Christmas: Why It Shouldn’t Be an Easy Task,” Father Sabak examines the origins of Christmas and what its celebration and physical representation in the crèche mean for human life and destiny. Stop by the Center for Catholic and Dominican Studies before January 13 to view Father Sabak’s private collection of international Christmas crèches or keep an eye out on the College’s Facebook page for photos of the exhibit.
The Providence College Podcast features interviews with interesting members of the Friar Family. These in-depth conversations with PC students, Dominicans, faculty, staff, and alumni provide a rich look into the lives of noteworthy Friars. Occasionally we will also bring you on-campus lectures and presentations. Go Friars!
