The Pope and Modern Times

Experts featured on the program include Helen Alvare of the United States Catholic Conference; Paul Wilkes, author of Education of an Archbishop; noted Catholic scholar Michael Novak of the American Enterprise Institute; and Father Richard McBrien of the University of Notre Dame. (26 minutes)
