Dr. John Sottosanti, retired oral surgeon, inventor, and author, reveals the powerful connection between faith and health. Drawing from his battle with prostate cancer and his memoir Mortal Adhesions: A Surgeon Battles the Seven Deadly Sins to Find Faith, Happiness and Inner Peace, he shows how spiritual discipline and regular religious practice are not only essential for the soul but also lead to measurable improvements in physical and mental well-being. His story affirms what the Church has always taught: living the truth brings healing—in both body and spirit.

In this conversation, Nathanael Blake discusses his book 'Victims of the Revolution: How Sexual Liberation Hurts Us All,' exploring the implications of the sexual revolution on society, particularly focusing on the harm it has caused to children and families. He argues for the superiority of Christian sexual ethics and critiques the notion of sexual liberation, emphasizing the need for authentic love and commitment in relationships. The discussion also touches on the political context surrounding transgender issues and the failures of modern political philosophy to address the needs of children.

Nathanael Blake, Ph.D., is a Fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, focusing on American political theory, Christian political thought, and natural law. He holds a doctorate in political theory from the Catholic University of America, where he wrote on the relationship between natural law and history. Dr. Blake has taught political science and was a Richard M. Weaver Fellow. His commentary has appeared in Public Discourse, The Federalist, National Review, and more. His forthcoming book, Victims of the Revolution: How Sexual Liberation Hurts Us All, will be published by Ignatius Press in Spring 2025.
