Description:     

Jon Sweeney presents a portrait of Francis beyond the familiar stories and images. He outlines Francis’s revolutionary approach to friendship, “the other” (people at the margins), poverty, spirituality, care (for people, creatures, and the natural world), and death.

This book presents the life and message of Francis in its essential details, offering a remarkable look at how Francis and his movement quite literally saved the Christian faith—and continues to offer a spiritual vision with contemporary relevance.
