I still think Pope Francis is 'revolutionary' - like Jesus.
His acts of mercy make me stop and pay attention and love this Pope.
I found the margins - economic, political and spiritual coupled with conversion - an interesting talk. I also found the 'mercy assumes sin' something to think about.
Misery and mercy go hand in hand - it would be worth learning that big word I can't spell!
Mercy and sin go hand in hand? Not sure what I feel about that - we can show mercy to others - they do not necessarily need to be sinners. I thought Bishop Barron's comments about God as love not God as mercy challenged a long standing belief of mine. I remember singing as a child that 'mercy is one of God's names - can you show God's mercy to me?'
