Nov 15 – Homily – Fr Elias: St. Albert, Doctor Universalis

Homily #121115b ( 10min) Play - Fr. Elias on the life of St Albert the Great, Dominican, Doctor of the Church and Father of Modern Science. Fr. Elias explains how he was the mentor of St Thomas Aquinas and helped to present faith and reason as complementary. He mastered both the natural sciences and the supernatural and so was given the name Doctor Universalis by his contemporaries, being considered a walking encyclopedia for his vast knowledge.
