Le Figaro has published a preview today (French language; paywall) of a forthcoming book co-authored by Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI and Cardinal Robert Sarah in support of priestly celibacy, entitled “Des profondeurs de nos cœurs” – “From the Depths of our Hearts,” scheduled to be released on January 15.
The two authors say that in recent months, “as the world echoed the din created by a strange synod of media that took precedence” over the real Amazon synod, they met, and “exchanged ideas and concerns.” They went on to pray and meditate, exchanging letters as they continued their reflections.
