Plenary Matters S6 Ep 2: Timothy Radcliffe ...on hope


Listen Later

In this special episode of Plenary Matters Geraldine speaks about hope with Dominican priest Timothy Radcliffe during his recent visit to Australia.

Pope Francis appointed Fr Timothy as spiritual advisor to the synod on synodality and his series of talks and meditations to synod delegates set the tone for the synod’s call to journey together as a global human family.

Timothy tells Geraldine he thinks the church has something to offer a multipolar world. But it may cost us. ‘This crisis will really put us to the test whether we are the body of Christ in which the walls are broken down between north and south and east and west,’ he says.

Mentioned in the show:

  • Ezra Klein's interview with author Marilynne Robinson
  • Timothy Radcliffe's new book with Lukasz Popko, Questioning God (Bloomsbury)
  • See also Timothy's synod reflections and talks, Listening Together: Meditations on Synodality (Liturgical Press)
