Episcopacy and the Catholic bond of unity: a clear, thoughtful defense of hierarchical church authority

- A contrast between visible, local churches and the universal church’s unity
- Reflections on how authority, tradition, and grace work together in Catholic teaching
- Historical context for the role of bishops, the pope, and apostolic succession
