SCOTT DETROW, HOST:The man remembered today at a funeral in St. Peter's Square, Pope Francis, was once very different. There was a period of time decades ago when he was viewed as arrogant, aloof, as someone who caused so much discord that he was essentially exiled from the Argentinian Jesuit order he had once led. Francis has referred to this two-year window, which happened when he was in his 50s, as a dark night and a crisis in his life.

Pope Francis was a master of making emotional connections through his actions, resulting in viral moments that rocketed across the internet. He was, at heart, a pastor to wounded souls. From consoling a young boy whose father had recently died, to preaching in an eerily empty St. Peter's Square during the pandemic, Francis understood how his actions, as much as his words, could preach the Gospel.

There's an old saying often attributed to St. Francis of Assisi: preach the Gospel at all times. If necessary, use words. While St. Francis likely never said those words, Pope Francis, who took his papal name from the 13th century saint, seemed to use them as a mission statement. Like all popes, Francis, who died on Monday at age 88, did his fair share of preaching with words.
