The Church is entering a period of transition. Mass attendance is on the decline, we’re dealing with the shame of McCarrick, and our secular and religious leaders – whether it be intentionally or unintentionally – are sowing confusion. These are the challenges our next pope will face – how will he tackle them? George Weigel is our guest.
