Bishop Athanasius Schneider witnessed these sufferings as a child in the former Soviet Union in the 1960s, and they are now a reality in the West. Bishop Schneider, a witness to the truth passed down from the apostles, explains how natural law, order, and a sense of the supernatural have been eroded and replaced, through Freemasonry and other false ideologies, with widespread apostasy, to the point where society is now almost entirely devoid of God.

Bishop Schneider calls for a "new apologetics" and "re-Catholicization" of countries that have lost their Catholic faith in The Springtime That Never Came. He teaches us to avoid theological confusion's "mental gymnastics" and assures us that souls return to the Church through repentance and reverence for the Blessed Sacrament, Eucharistic Adoration and processions, Confession, and the Holy Rosary. Bishop Schneider believes that our current situation, which is marked in many places by a lack of access to Holy Mass and Communion, is God's "merciful appeal for a true eucharistic conversion of the entire Church."
