In his book, “The Pope,” John Donald Carlucci gives readers an intimate glimpse into the inner thoughts of the current pope, Pope Francis I. A man of little means, Argentina's Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio became the 266th Pope of the Roman Catholic Church on February 28, 2013. Carlucci reveals in his book how the current Pope remains a humble man of faith despite his lofty rise. As a person raised Catholic, this story was a very refreshing look at a man of great faith and how he strives to serve the Catholic faithful. Pope Francis’ story is a very interesting one and I think anyone with a belief in God would enjoy reading it. As a “former” Catholic, I found Pope Francis’ views on certain issues addressed in this book very uplifting and encouraging. His leadership is something the Catholic Church as needed for a very long time.
