Author Book Reading Timeless: A History of the Catholic Church
Author Steve Weidenkopf reads from chapter 6 in his book, Timeless: A History of the Catholic Church.

This period of history includes the Avignon Papacy and the Western Schism. Steve offers a fascinating narrative of history, not a dry, fact-filled academic treatise.
