The Legacy of Pope Francis

About this sermon

Friends, Pope Francis was a pope of the people, whose influence extended beyond the Church into the wider world. In this week’s episode of the Word on Fire Show, we reflect on the legacy of our late Holy Father, especially the influence of his Jesuit formation.
