Archbishop Georg Gänswein is secretary to Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI and also a close collaborator of Pope Francis. Through his work, he has first-hand information on various areas that have to do with the work of the ecclesiastical hierarchy. This book gathers a selection of texts of diverse character (interviews, homilies and conferences) in which he shows a lucid vision of countless situations in which the hierarchy of the Church is involved, without leaving out some of the most important problems that cross the recent history of the Church and society in our time, especially in the countries of the secularized West. Gänswein provides interesting data on the resignation of Benedict XVI and other aspects of his Pontificate.
