The Shroud of Turin & What It Means for Us Today (w/ Fr. Andrew Dalton)

What if one of the most studied objects in Christian history could still surprise you? In this episode, David DiNapoli sits down with Fr. Andrew Dalton, a priest and professor living and teaching in Rome, whose work has brought him deep into the study of the Shroud of Turin. Fr. Dalton doesn’t approach the Shroud as a curiosity or a controversy, but as something far more personal: an image that draws us into the heart of the Gospel itself. From Scripture and theology to the Eucharist and the Paschal Mystery, he reflects on why the Shroud has been called “the Fifth Gospel”—not as an extra revelation, but as a powerful visual witness to Christ’s suffering, death, and resurrection. This conversation isn’t about winning arguments or proving theories. It’s about seeing Christ more clearly, loving Him more deeply, and understanding how faith, reason, and beauty converge in the life of the Church. Learn more about the Shroud of Turin & Fr.
