Special Edition of the IP Podcast: Reflecting on the Life and Works of Pope Francis

On Monday April 21, Pope Francis passed away. As the Church mourns his passing and prays for the repose of his soul, we begin to reflect on the legacy of Pope Francis.

So, in this special edition of the Ignatius Press Podcast, Ben Eriksen sits down with Mark Brumely to discuss the life and works of Pope Francis. Mark begins by highlighting three lessons that we can learn from Pope Francis before explaining why he believes Pope Francis will likely be the last pope of Vatican II. He also argues to what degree a pope should be involved in politics and how we can best foster Christian unity as we look forward to a papal conclave. Mark’s balanced perspective on these topics is a welcome sight in these turbulent times.
