Focusing on the transformative vision of ecclesiastical reform, the book explores Archbishop Angelo Roncali's (Pope John XXIII) reflections on the possibility of genuine change within the Church. It highlights the Second Vatican Council's aims to deepen doctrine as a message of salvation, emphasizing historical roots over superficial connections to tradition. Rather than merely addressing heresies, the council sought to enhance the Church's relevance and vitality across diverse local contexts. Congar's work provides essential insights into the true nature of reform called for during this pivotal time.
