Pope John Paul II. Bücher
Papst Johannes Paul II. widmete sein Pontifikat dem Dienst an der Kirche und der gesamten Menschheit mit unermüdlichem missionarischem Eifer. Seine fast 27-jährige Amtszeit war geprägt von zahlreichen pastoralen Reisen, der Förderung eines offenen Dialogs mit verschiedenen Nationen und Religionen und einem tiefen Engagement für die Verbreitung des Glaubens. Er initiierte bedeutende globale Veranstaltungen wie den Weltjugendtag und die Weltfamilientreffen und zeigte damit seine tiefe Fürsorge für jüngere Generationen und die Familie. Unter seiner Führung bereitete sich die Kirche auf das dritte Jahrtausend vor, wobei er die spirituelle Erneuerung betonte und inspirierende Beispiele für Heiligkeit für die heutige Zeit lieferte.
