God without a People?

Bol

Is there a connection between the crisis of the Church and the crisis of society? In this wide-ranging conversation, Bishop Stefan Oster and veteran journalist Peter Seewald discuss whether and how Catholicism still fits a "civil society" and increasingly globalized world. For the bishop, the future of the Catholic Church is a matter of renewal resulting from preservation. Speaking to the state of the Church in Germany while applying those lessons worldwide, he encourages the faithful to enter into the mystery of faith and personally experience God, prioritizing a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. As he asks "whether we will let the Gospel take effect once again," Oster stands in the tradition of those reformers who want to draw from the source, who want to set into motion a reform that comes from the Faith itself, contrary to all attempts to adapt and water down the Gospel.
