About this sermon

On "EWTN News Nightly" tonight: Tens of thousands of mourners are at the Vatican paying their final respects to Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI. The funeral is set for Thursday. Director of EWTN Germany, Martin Rothweiler, joins to talk to us about the scene at St. Peter's Square. Meanwhile, President Joe Biden travels to Kentucky and Vice President Kamala Harris heads to Illinois tomorrow each touting how the administration is “rebuilding our infrastructure” as well as “creating good-paying jobs…” On the first day of the 118th Congress, House Republicans are set to elect a new speaker. Not everyone is on board with former leader Kevin McCarthy taking the gavel. The former Minority Leader held a very tense Republican meeting just before today's session got underway. A new year, a new Congress, and a mixed bag of priorities for House Republicans. With so many items on the docket for the new Congress, Director of the Center for Economic Opportunity at the Independent Women's Forum, Patrice Onwuka, joins to share what tops her list and what she believes they need to get to right away. Finally this evening, where our culture often finds beauty in the superficial and the fleeting, Pope Benedict XVI found beauty in art, music and even the Cross. Art Historian at the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas in Rome, Liz Lev, joins to tell us about her meeting with Pope Benedict and his influence on her life and her work.
