Great children‘s question and answer book from pope fransis.
#DoubleBookSpin for January ✅
Most of this book is an interview with Pope Francis and the last part is a papal letter about the Holy Year of Mercy (2016). Most of it is still relevant since the central message is mercy - that god has mercy for us and that we should have compassion for ourselves & for each other. A bit repetitive, but the pope‘s stories were interesting and he expresses himself well.

An interesting insight into the thinking of the current Pope which I think will be of interest to Christians and sympathetic non-believers alike #spiritualreading #lent
I picked up this book after watching The Two Popes. It's Pope Francis' major statement on the environment and humanity's obligation to save the planet. The approach is ecological (everything is connected) and humanitarian and deeply critical of our capitalistic narratives of progress. I am glad I read it.
I honestly just think more Christians need to stop ignoring Jesus and listen to Papa Frank. Too many out there are giving us a bad name.

A surprisingly interesting study of the current Pope and his predecessor- the only time in history when there have been ‘two‘ Popes.
I had read reviews of this book saying that it was biased but I think as long as you are aware of this (surely all bios are biased in some way?) then it‘s a fascinating account of their similarities and differences, in particular their suggested implication in authoritarian regimes.
For those of you aiming for a full house on #readingeurope2020, including those pesky little micro-states, this book would do rather nicely for #vaticancity...

Finished Laudato Si while doing some #audiostitching! I'm at 9.5 hours for the #24B4Monday #readathon, and it's 10:45 pm, so I might as well call it ~10 hours total. I finished 2 books, A Lost Lady and Laudato Si, (I'll post reviews tomorrow), despite a very busy weekend and not much reading time! 😊 Now I'm going to do a little more seminary reading before going to bed! #NFNov @Andrew65 @TheReadingMermaid @jb72 @Clwojick @rsteve388
Fun little #audiorun to break up an evening of reading. And for once, one of my required reads is available as an audiobook, and a free one at that! #NFNov @rsteve388 @Clwojick
