Is the Pope still relevant in global politics? In this powerful and historically rich episode, Patrick Coffin explores the vital diplomatic role of the Catholic Church and why Pope Leo XIV’s recent offer to mediate peace between Russia and Ukraine is both timely and deeply rooted in Church tradition.

From Pope Leo the Great facing Attila the Hun, to Pope Pius XII’s quiet heroism during World War II, to St. John Paul II’s moral leadership against communism, this episode walks through the incredible legacy of papal diplomacy—how popes have impacted the course of history not through armies, but through faith, truth, and moral authority.

We dive into:

• Why the Vatican is still a major diplomatic power
• The spiritual and political significance of Pope Leo XIV’s public offer on his official X account
• How Catholic diplomacy offers a unique path to peace rooted in the Gospel
• Why both Catholics and non-Catholics should pay attention to the Holy See in times of global crisis

🎯 Whether you're a believer, historian, or political observer, this video offers a Catholic apologetic perspective on the enduring importance of the papacy in international affairs.
