Catholic Theology with Fr. Roy Lepak
Fr Roy Lepak is a priest of the Archdiocese of St Paul and Minneapolis. His education includes a BA in Philosophy and an MA in Church History from St Paul Seminary, an MA in Educational Psychology (Counseling) from the University of Minnesota, and STL and STD from the University of Fribourg, Switzerland, where he completed his doctoral dissertation, The Nature of Infused Contemplation. He taught theology at the University of St Thomas in St Paul for 24 years and has lived as a diocesan hermit since 1990. The Introductory Theology course provides an investigation into religious meaning, focusing on the entry of God’s revelation into history and the human response in faith. Fr. Lepak's Christian Mysticism course examines the profound knowledge of God, often called mystical or contemplative, which can be experienced in the consciousness of the Christian as a result of union with God through the growth of baptismal grace, charity, and faith. Familiarity with foundational theological and philosophical concepts introduced in Fr Lepak’s Introduction to Theology course is strongly recommended. Documents and other handouts for Fr. Lepak's courses may be found at https://dioceseofmarquette.org/podcasts or in the show notes of each episode.
