Show Notes

On this weeks podcast we reflect on the life of Joseph Ratzinger - Pope Benedict XVI - who died on 31 December 2022, ten years after historically resigning from the papacy at the age of 95. 

We reflect on the life of "a humble worker in the vineyard of the Lord," who as a theologian and teacher his primary focus was always on making known Jesus Christ and his message of love and salvation

Our podcast looks at his life and times from his childhood in Germany up to his death as the 265th successor to St Peter. We discuss his life and work as a theologian with Philip Cremin (WIT) and reflect back on a historic first, a funeral for a retired pope presided over by the current pontiff.
