BISHOP ROBERT BARRON: The legacy of Pope Francis
Fox News
In word, gesture and deed, Pope Francis consistently reached out to those on the edges – the poor, the disenfranchised, migrants – and endeavored to bring them to the center.
Word on Fire founder Bishop Robert Barron is bishop of the Diocese of Winona-Rochester (Minnesota) and an acclaimed author, speaker, and theologian. He is one of the most followed Catholics in the world on social media, prompting Francis Cardinal George to describe him as "one of the Church’s best messengers." Follow him on Twitter: @BishopBarron
