George Weigel - Episode 3: Why are churches so challenged today?

Building Worldviews

In this final part of our conversation with George Weigel, we discuss the relationship of modernity to the Catholic church and Pope John Paul II’s view of “authentic humanism.” The interview concludes with a discussion on the biggest challenge facing Christian churches worldwide and his perspective on the future of America.

Other topics we cover: “The Irony of Modern Catholic History,” humanism, nationalism, universalism, pluralism, orthodox Christianity, the Catholic Church’s various religious orders, authentic humanism, Pope Benedict XVI, and more.

George Weigel is a Distinguished Senior Fellow of the Ethics and Public Policy Center and New York Times bestselling author. He is the author of over 30 books, including his landmark biography of Pope John Paul II “Witness to Hope” (1999) and its sequel, “The End and the Beginning” (2010). Weigel earned his M.A. from the University of St. Michael’s College but has since received nineteen honorary doctorates for his work, making him a leading global voice on issues of theology, ecumenicalism, foreign and domestic policy, and more.
