In this episode of The Rhythms of Faith podcast, Audrey Seah—a professor of religious studies at the College of the Holy Cross—shares how she discovered her calling in liturgical studies almost by accident, beginning with youth ministry and a pivotal graduate course at Collegeville. She discusses her current work at Notre Dame's McGrath Institute, where she is turning her dissertation on deaf Catholics and liturgical inculturation into a book, and explains how inculturation is a theological concept rooted in the incarnation rather than merely a process of cultural adaptation. Audrey highlights how the deaf Catholic community practices worship in visually and spatially rich ways—such as a dynamic Italian sign for the Trinity—and how these communities challenge ableist assumptions about who can participate fully in liturgical life. She connects this research to global Catholicism, arguing that the most theologically generative moments arise not from neatly bounded cultural categories but from organic, cross-cultural encounters—like hearing families entering deaf parishes—that make the presence of God more tangible. Finally, Audrey offers a vision of \"good liturgy\" as liturgy that is simply done—imperfect, alive, and practiced—comparing it to Yo-Yo Ma's ever-evolving interpretation of Bach, where faithful repetition always leaves room for creative expression.
