Why Love Matters: Understanding Pope Benedict XVI's First Encyclical, Deus Caritas Est

Tuesday, August 22, 2006
Today, Dr. Samuel Gregg of the Acton Institute delivered a lecture entitled “Why Love Matters: Understanding Pope Benedict XVI’s First Encyclical, Deus Caritas Est.” The address explored Pope Benedict’s first encyclical - the subject of which came as a surprise to many - and delved into the background of the pope’s encyclical on Christian love, outlining its implications for the Church’s social teaching and its engagement with the world.
