The Art of Living, Episode 8: Hope (Part II)

Welcome to Lily: The Voice of Alice von Hildebrand. In this first series, Lily guides us through a chapter-by-chapter reflection of Dietrich von Hildebrand's book The Art of Living, which began as a series of radio lectures in 1930s Germany. Continuing from the previous episode, Lily reflects on hope in the context of communion, particularly communion with God. Lily contrasts hope with optimism, showing it to be something truer and deeper than a simple belief that everything is going to be okay. Content warning: Discussion of death and suicide.
