Pope Francis, the newest rock star, was recently on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine (“Francis’ effect on Church hailed, but mag story hit,” News, 2/3/2014). The Pope’s personal and charismatic touch, simple lifestyle and inclusive attitude endear him to both Catholics and non-Catholics alike.
Moreover, his sincere dialogue with people of differing viewpoints while remaining a faithful “son of the Church,” brings into play St. Paul’s adage to “speak the truth in love.”
Ultimately, faith and sanctity attract.
