Dr. Randall Smith: Holiness and Prudence

Respect Life Radio

"Holy men and women will often have a clearer vision than the rest of us about our ultimate goal and of the fundamental moral principles that should guide our lives," writes Randall B. Smith, a Professor of Theology at the University of St. Thomas in Houston, Texas in his recent article called "Holiness and Prudence" in The Catholic Thing. "These gifts will not, however, always result in prudent decisions about particular matters. Such prudence is usually the result of long experience, trial and error, and good training by someone who already possesses good judgment."

Dr. Smith’s areas of research are moral theology, historical theology, sexual ethics, faith and culture, sacred architecture, and architecture and urbanism. He can speak on sin as a part of the human condition.
