The biblical and theological basis of the papacy—and why it still matters today
An introduction to Pope Leo XIV, shaped by his first teachings and actions
How we, as the faithful, can spiritually support the pope through intentional prayer, fasting, and engagement with his message

The book also features an appendix with classic and modern prayers for the pope, along with a glossary of key terms related to papal life and leadership.
