THE TRUE LIFE AND TEACHINGS OF POPE JOHN 23 - DVD
The "smiling pope," John XXIII, was so much more than the pontiff who called for the historic Second Vatican Council in 1962. The early spirituality of Alfredo Giuseppi Roncalli, who would be elected pope in 1958, was as deep, profound, and world-changing as the renewal in the Catholic Church which he ushered in as a 76-year-old. Fr. Alfred McBride, hosts this series on the man behind the doctrines which would shape modern Catholicism and increase the influence of every papal reign from Paul VI to the Francis of our day. 4 disc / 6 hrs
