Word of God, Light of Love: Reflections on the Apostolic Exhortation Verbum Domini

Pope Benedict XVI’s Apostolic Exhortation Verbum Domini has been called the most important document on the Bible in 45 years.
 
The Exhortation is the result of the October 2008 General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops in Rome, which was dedicated to “The Word of God in the Life and the Mission of the Church.”
 
At a spring symposium sponsored by Salt + Light and Regis College in Toronto, leading Church figures and theologians addressed Verbum Domini as both a scholarly work and a popular teaching instrument. This four part series presents the major addresses from the conference. Presenters include Cardinal Donald Wuerl, Archbishop of Washington, the Most Reverend Terrence Prendergast, SJ, Archbishop of Ottawa, the Most Reverend Ronald Fabbro, CSB, Bishop of London and Mr. Carl Anderson, Supreme Knight of the Knights of Columbus. The Most Reverend Thomas Collins, Archbishop of Toronto will also lead a Lectio Divina for the participants.
