Six and Seven

Mr. John L. Allen Jr. offered his review of Pope Francis and his six months serving as Bishop of Rome and as “a force of nature.”

At ThinkingFaith Jesuit Tim Byron reviews one book about the pope:


Of the new literature rushed out to capitalise on the great interest and the extraordinarily long honeymoon period that Francis is experiencing, Paul Vallely’s Pope Francis: Untying the Knots is perhaps the best in the English language.

Seven is the number of weeks that the Letters to Timothy and Titus will be read at Sunday’s masses. Jesuit Peter Edmonds looks at these letters to individuals and their placement in the lectionary.
