The Remarkable Pope Francis: TIME's Person of the Year

He is Time's Person of the Year, and I embrace the choice. Regardless of your faith, if any at all, and regardless of whether he has addressed every church or social issue to your satisfaction, he addresses so clearly, so unambiguously, the larger issues of responsibility and accountability in our time--personal, interpersonal, and community issues, economic and governmental issues, national and international issues. And he does it with equanimity, wisdom and authority through the natural expression of his very identity. He does it with authentic humility. He is the right person, the right heart, the right understandings, and the right voice for this place and time--not just for this year, but for this time. He is the remarkable Pope Francis.


It is worth reading and learning more about him.
