“Pope Francis has taught us by his example how we can witness with our lives and actions to our faith and moral principles, but still engage respectfully with those who disagree. He's urged us to find a "new balance," going beyond the few wedge issues of our politics, so we do not lose the "freshness and fragrance of the Gospel."” StillsActionLosesMoralPrinciplesIssuesOur LivesExampleTaughtBalanceWitnessDisagreePopeFragranceTaught UsFreshnessMoral PrinciplesWedges Author:John I.

“[Pope Francis] has done this not through angry speeches, but through the powerful symbols and examples of embracing a badly deformed man, welcoming refugees to the Vatican, strolling through a shanty town in Rome, visiting a home for the elderly, washing the feet of prisoners on Holy Thursday, and going to a hospital for newborns.” MenDoneHomePowerfulFeetExampleHolySpeechTownsAngryWelcomeSymbolsHospitalsPrisonerRomePopeRefugeeElderlyWashingVisitingStrollingThursday Author:John I.
