By Pope Francis and Pope Leo XIV. Combines two complementary papal documents: the last encyclical by Pope Francis and the first apostolic exhortation of Pope Leo XIV. Together they present a comprehensive reflection on Christ’s love, the first with emphasis on the spiritual dimensions; the second on the social implications. Together, they issue “a call to simplicity of life, personal encounter with Jesus, seeing with the eyes of the heart, being brothers and sisters with the poor, missionary discipleship, and active building of a society based in gospel values. It is this communion with ‘the human and divine love of the Heart of Jesus Christ’ that will enable the embers of the church’s renewal at Vatican II to come to life again in in the twenty-first century and beyond.” Read more.
