Customer Reviews
My role model
I found my way to Dr. Sri after a teacher friend recommended his wonderful book, Who Am I To Judge? Dr. Sri is a great role model for people approaching life and family challenges with a Catholic worldview. He also gives great guidance on sharing our faith with others. He has a calm, kind mode of delivery, kind of like a Mr. Rogers for the adult podcast world - I love him!
