Pope Francis has taken the world by storm, captivating Catholics,
Protestants, and non-Christians alike. Sneaking out of the Vatican
at night, washing the feet of inmates, and taking selfies with
young fans is certainly unlike any religious leader we've seen in a
while, and some of the religious establishment is uneasy about it.
The revitalization Francis is bringing to the Catholic Church is
not without precedent, however. Jesus had a similar effect in his
day, drawing crowds with his humility, kindness, and
wisdomaEURO"even as he drew the disapproval of established
religious leaders. The things that have brought Francis such media
attention are the same things that made Jesus so peculiar and
attractive in his day. Thoughtful examination of Jesus' example and
legacy, as well as an honest look at the similarities and
differences between Catholic and Protestant faith, invites
reflection on the heart of Christianity and how we relate to our
fellow Christians. Readers will discover the power of heartfelt
joy, radical love, and passion for justice to shake people out of
religious complacency and into dynamic, contagious faith. Jesus,
Pope Francis, and a Protestant Walk into a Bar looks at what is
universal among Christians, what is unique to Catholics and
Protestants, and how all Christians can practice understanding and
cooperation across differences. Perfect for individual or group
use, discussion questions are also included to encourage further
thought and conversation.
