We can all use some hope. Lucky for us, Pope Benedict XVI wrote a whole encyclical about it.
So in honor of his recent passing, we’re going to explore what this great pope said about the virtue of hope.
And to do that, we’re joined by Fr. Brian Larkin, who is a priest in the Archdiocese of Denver. Not only is Fr. Brian really smart, but he can also take Pope Benedict’s deep teaching and break it down into bits we can all digest.
If you’ve been inspired by Pope Benedict and want to learn more about him, then you’re in for a treat!
