Abstract

The article focuses on the significance of the election of Pope Leo XIV, the first North American-born Pope and first Augustinian in 500 years, highlighting his shared commitment with his predecessor, Pope Francis, to reforming the Roman Catholic Church. Both Popes emphasize the church as the teachings of Jesus rather than a physical institution, advocating for greater involvement of the laity in faith leadership and charity. Pope Leo XIV’s introduction to a new edition of *The Practice of the Presence of God* reflects his focus on integrating spirituality into daily life, aiming to restore the church’s moral and spiritual influence amid ongoing challenges such as sexual abuse scandals and secularization.
