When Joseph Ratzinger became pope in 2005, there was a perception in some quarters that this new pontiff—a renowned theologian and former head of the Vatican’s Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith—was a highbrow academic who would preach from the chair of St. Peter in abstruse theoretical language that the average Catholic would find impenetrable.
Fortunately for all of us, this turned out not to be the case, and Pope Benedict’s homilies and addresses—while clearly informed by his tremendous scholarly work—were brimful of spiritual insights and pastoral care aimed at helping his world-wide flock grow closer to Christ.
The new collection God is Ever New: Meditations on Life, Love, and Freedom, out this spring from Ignatius Press, brings together beautiful excerpts from Pope Benedict’s papal writings, presenting them in a format easy to read and reflect upon.
In this episode, Andrew Petiprin speaks with Mark Brumley, president of Ignatius Press, about the new book, Pope Benedict’s deep pastoral sense, and the spiritual and theological legacy he left at his passing in 2022.
