Our new Pope continues to challenge us in very direct ways, and this morning he said a statement that challenges the entire church and struck very close to me. This simple statement is today's meditation, for to explain it would do it injustice. Read it and let it linger in your heart and mind for the rest of the day to remind us what Christ calls us to be:
"How I would like a church that is poor, and that is for the poor." --Pope Francis I (3/16/13)
