Steve sits down with Ambassador Francis Rooney, who served as United States Ambassador to the Holy See after being appointed by President George W. Bush, for a fascinating conversation on faith, diplomacy, and history. Drawing from his book The Global Vatican, Rooney explains the unique role the Vatican plays on the world stage and what it means for the United States to now have America’s first Pope. It’s a thoughtful discussion on moral leadership, global influence, and why the relationship between America and the Holy See matters now more than ever.
