To Sanctify One’s Work and to think with the Church

Dr. Michael J. White, PhD

In this reflection, Michael White discusses the two imperatives of laborem sanctificare et cum Ecclesia sentire (to sanctify one’s work and to think with the Church) and their application to Catholic philosophers in the secular academy.

These two imperatives apply to all Catholics–and perhaps, in some form, to all Christians –not just to academics or philosophers. But, of course, the manner in which they apply will depend, to a degree, on one’s particular profession or work.
