Even after his death, Pope Benedict XVI continues to shape the life of the Church. This EWTN's special report takes viewers to Altötting, Germany, where theologians, clergy, and those who knew Joseph Ratzinger personally gathered for the Benedict XVI Forum to reflect on his enduring legacy.
Hear from Archbishop Georg Gänswein, Pope Benedict’s longtime private secretary, Cardinal Kurt Koch, and Sister Christine Felder, who lived and worked closely with him for decades. Through personal memories and theological reflection, they reveal a pope remembered for his humility, kindness, deep prayer life, and unwavering trust in God.
The program explores Benedict XVI’s Christ-centered theology, his conviction that faith and reason belong together, and why his writings—such as Introduction to Christianity—remain deeply relevant today. Though he spent his final years in seclusion as Pope Emeritus, his witness continues to inspire Catholics across generations.
A moving tribute to a pope whose life of faith still speaks powerfully to the modern world.
