Here are some of the most inspiring quotes from Pope Francis in his new encyclical Dilexit Nos on the divine and human love of the heart of Jesus Christ:
COMMENTARY: Pope Francis’ latest encyclical, not unlike Laudato Si before it, is more a political than a social document.

A diverse gathering of influential Catholics came together to shape the immediate and long-term reception of Pope Francis’ eco encyclical.
