Praying with the Popes: Words of Hope and Peace from Leo XIII to Leo XIV brings together the voices of twelve successors of St. Peter, offering a treasury of wisdom, reflection, and prayer for our times.
Each chapter introduces a pope—from Leo XIII to the newly elected Leo XIV—through a brief profile and selected excerpts from his writings. These quotations are paired with prompts for prayer and reflection, helping readers not only to meditate on papal teachings but also to apply them in their daily lives.
The result is a deeply spiritual journey through Catholic social teaching, seen through the lens of hope, peace, and justice.
Compiled with an introduction by Catholic author and speaker Katie McGrady, this book serves as both a devotional and a guide to action. It shows how the Church’s vision for human dignity, community, and compassion remains vital and transformative in every age.
The twelve popes represented offer a unified witness to the enduring truth of the Gospel. Their prayers and insights illuminate the path toward living faith fully, loving as Christ loves, and working for the peace that only God can give.
Praying with the Popes is an invitation to draw closer to the heart of the Church and the heart of Christ—through the inspired words of those who have shepherded His people with wisdom, courage, and grace.
