At the end of last year, a new book by Deacon Frederick “Fritz” Bauerschmidt was named the winner of the Michael Ramsey Prize, one of the world’s most prestigious awards for theological writing. Presented by the Archbishop of Canterbury at a ceremony held in December at Lambeth Palace Library in London, the award recognized Deacon Bauerschmidt for his book, “The Love that is God: An Invitation to Christian Faith.” Deacon Bauerschmidt, who goes by “Deacon Fritz,” is a professor of theology at Loyola University Maryland in Baltimore and a deacon at the Cathedral of Mary Our Queen in Homeland. He speaks with Catholic Review Managing Editor George Matysek about how God is love and what that means for Christian life.
