Pope Benedict XVI and Sexual Abuse in the Church

All About My Catholic Faith

31 - Pope Benedict XVI just published this past Wednesday, April 10, 2019, a 6,000 word essay titled: The Church and the Scandal of Sexual Abuse. This bombshell piece of work shows what he believes lead to the sexual abuse crisis that we have witnessed in the Catholic Church and in society at large over the last several decades. 

For more in depth coverage of this essay please listen to the Dr. Taylor Marshall Catholic Show podcast which will be out later today, April 11. Dr. Marshall and Tim Gordon will talk in depth about this essay and what it means for all of us. 

You may also want to listen to the Patrick Madrid Show podcast or his show archive on Relevant Radio from his Thursday show. Patrick devoted the majority of his three hour show to reading and talking about Pope Benedict's essay as well as giving people the opportunity to call in live to discuss how they felt. 

You don't want to miss either of those two shows.

Please visit Catholic News Agency for the full text version of Pope Benedict's essay.
