Weigel on His New Book The Next Pope

Ignatius Press, not to be confused with The Next Pope by Edward Pentin.

CWR Dispatch: The Next Pope and the Great Commission by George Weigel
The Next Pope begins with the premise that we are living in apostolic times – times that require every Catholic to be an evangelist – rather than Christendom times.

Of course Weigel affirms Latin theologoumena regarding the authority of the bishop of Rome; there will be no consideration of reducing the Roman Curia to a local body responsible for the affairs of the local Church, or a reconsideration of what the primacy of Rome entails or the current synodal structures of the local Church, which would be necessitated by a re-evaluation of the historical separation of the presbyterate of the episcopate.
