  • Summary

  • Author Kevin Wells felt like his marriage—his whole life, even—was falling apart. His wife, Krista, was mired in an addiction to alcohol that cut her off from God, family, and friends, and Kevin felt helpless and alone. When, at last, supported by the grace of the sacraments, Krista started to find her way to healing and sobriety, the Covid-19 pandemic plunged the whole world into confusion and isolation.

    In his new book, “The Hermit,” Kevin tells the story of a remarkable priest, Fr. Martin Flum, who extended a life-line to Krista and to many others during the dark days of 2020.

    In this episode, Kevin speaks with host Andrew Petiprin about the healing he and Krista have found through suffering, about the deep reservoirs of grace to be found in the sacraments, and about the profound witness of Fr. Flum in their family’s dark night of the soul.
