Show Notes

Benedict XVI's homily in Westminster Cathedral centres on the sacrifice of the Cross - the outpouring of Christ’s blood that is the source of the Church’s life.

Pope Benedict XVI also speaks of the need to share God's Word:

"One of the greatest challenges facing us today is how to speak convincingly of the wisdom and liberating power of God’s word to a world which all too often sees the Gospel as a constriction of human freedom, instead of the truth which liberates our minds and enlightens our efforts to live wisely and well."

Recorded on Saturday, 18 September 2010.
