Cathleen Falsani

from Guardians Of The Flame Podcast Hosted by Guardians Of The Flame

Cathleen Falsani is an American journalist and author. She specializes in the intersection of religion/spirituality/faith and culture, and has been a staff writer for the Chicago Sun Times, The Chicago Tribune, Sojourners Magazine, and Religion News Service. Cathleen also writes for U2.com. She was the 2005 Religion Writer of the Year, as awarded by the Religion Newswriters Association, and has twice been a finalist for the Templeton Religion Reporter of the Year award. Just before Christmas, Cathleen and Jarrod McKenna and I walked the 200 mile Irish border marking the looming spectre of Brexit and this polarised moment with a pilgrimage of prayer and reconciliation. Cathleen has Irish roots and has travelled here many times. Our conversation traversed the themes of her recent pilgrimage zig-zagging across the Irish border, the current state of this divided world, a past interview with Barack Obama and what we can learn from U2. This is a really interesting and topical conversation and was one of the easiest interviews I’ve ever done. Cathleen is a natural communicator and speaks with wisdom and tenderness. We also spoke about her most recent book The End Of Hunger.
