Tune in here to this Tuesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! 

We're joined by Father Bill Nicholas to talk about the upcoming Papal Conclave and the sacred process of selecting the next Pope. As cardinals prepare to gather in the Sistine Chapel, Father Bill explains the traditions, symbolism, and spiritual weight behind this centuries-old ritual. He describes how the cardinals take an oath of secrecy, vote in silence, and await the appearance of white smoke signaling a new Pope. Father Bill also reflects on the legacy of Pope Francis, particularly his efforts to diversify the College of Cardinals by increasing representation from Asia and the Pacific. Emphasizing that this is a process guided by the Holy Spirit—not politics—he offers insight into how the Church seeks divine direction in choosing a new Holy Father. The conversation closes with a blessing for listeners and a reminder of the Church’s enduring role and presence in the world.
