CNN Vatican Correspondent, Christopher Lamb’s new book American Hope – What Pope Leo XIV means for the Church and World delves into not only one of the most interesting conclaves in modern time, but how the 267th pope has already dominated global headlines due to his peace-focused message during increasingly turbulent and conflict-ridden times.
In an interview with Andrew West of ABC Religion and Ethics, Christopher Lamb speaks about the importance of Pope Leo in an American context, and how he is re-shaping the world and providing a sense of hope. He also speaks to the relationship of Br Mark O’Connor, Editor of Catholic Outlook with Pope Leo XIV.
According to the publisher, the book outlines how “Leo is set to make a profound impact on the Church at a transformative moment in its history. In the era of “America First”, the story of Leo’s life and ministry asks what it truly means to be an American. In a world of conflict, he stands for peace. In a time of uncertainty, he offers a sense of hope.”
