George Weigel - Episode 1: What is the human person and what is authentic human community?

Building Worldviews

The first of a three-part conversation with George Weigel, we discuss the dilemma of modernity that Pope John Paul II addressed in his life, the collapse of communism in Europe and the revolution of moral conscience that occurred, and how John Paul II was involved and what he believed about a rich understanding of human freedom.

Other topics we cover: worldview, the importance of Pope John Paul II to modern history, modernity, and the fall of communism.

George Weigel is a Distinguished Senior Fellow of the Ethics and Public Policy Center and New York Times bestselling author. He is the author of over 30 books, including his landmark biography of Pope John Paul II “Witness to Hope” (1999) and its sequel, “The End and the Beginning” (2010). Weigel earned his M.A. from the University of St. Michael’s College but has since received nineteen honorary doctorates for his work, making him a leading global voice on issues of theology, ecumenicalism, foreign and domestic policy, and more.
