About this listen

This is a book of wisdom and insight that explains how providential are the trials through which the Catholic Church is now passing. These include:

  • The need of the Papal Primacy to ensure Christian unity.
  • The true meaning of the Priesthood as a sacrament and not a mere ministry.
  • The necessity of the Eucharist as the sacrifice of the savior now offering himself on our altars.
  • The role of the Bishops as successors of the Apostles, united with the successor of St. Peter, the Bishop of Rome.
  • The value of suffering in union with Christ crucified.
  • The indispensable service of the laity in the apostolate.

All these themes receive new clarity and depth from Cardinal Ratzinger.
