Encyclicals in Time of Crisis explores five magisterial teachings released at a pivotal time in the history of the Church and the world, when great peril and global ills threatened the Body of Christ. After an insightful review on the history and nature of encyclicals and how they should be received by the faithful, Father Meconi dives into five influential papal documents that confronted the spirit of the world, providing a short biography on the men who wrote them, the historical context in which they were written, and how they clarified Church teaching on the most pressing cultural issues.
