Meet Dr. Marcellino D’Ambrosio ’77 — you can call him Dr. Italy. He is a leader in Catholic media, heading the Crossroads Initiative and frequently appearing on Catholic networks including EWTN and the SiriusXM Catholic Channel. In this episode, he discusses his youth in Providence, career, and new book, Jesus: the Way, the Truth, and the Life (Ascension Press, 2020), and corresponding video series. Marcellino’s work weaves the four gospel accounts of Jesus together with other sources to present Jesus within and against the backdrop of history, not myth.

Purchase Jesus: the Way, the Truth, and the Life from Ascension Press.

It’s Marcellino’s reunion year, but the host didn’t have the dates of Reunion Weekend handy while recording. Reunion Weekend will be celebrated on campus June 3-5, 2022.
