Since returning from a pilgrimage to Assisi, Italy in October 2003, I have been blessed to hear several speakers talk about Franciscanism. For example, I have had the privilege of hearing Fr. Kenan Osborne OFM, a well-known Franciscan theologian, speak on two occasions.
Recently, Marian College in Indianapolis, Indiana made a DVD available of a talk he gave at the college in March 2007. There is no charge for the DVD and it is well worth having. Click on this link to order you copy: Franciscan Theology and Philosophy: Its Contemporary Value.
The DVD is a great introduction to Franciscanism. Fr. Osborne traces the history of the Thomistic and Franciscan traditions. He also discusses several contemporary issues facing the Church and how the Franciscan tradition might serve the Church as it addresses these issues.
