After his resignation in 2013, Pope Benedict led a largely private life, but today many of private homilies from this time have been made public in “The Lord Leads Us by the Hand.” Get your copy here: https://ignatius.com/the-lord-holds-us-by-the-hand-lhuh/?searchid=4751194&search_query=the+lord+leads+us
In today’s episode, Fr. Fessio recalls the wisdom of Pope Benedict XVI. He remembers going to his classes and listening to his homilies, and he realizes that the same quality of insights is present in these newly released homilies. Fr. Fessio also responds to many of the criticisms of Pope Benedict including his resignation, Summorum Pontificum, and Vatican II. This enlightening discussion reveals much about Pope Benedict XVI from someone who knew him closely and personally.
