Francis of Assisi: A Harvest of Souls

This week's reading, which begins on page 295 of Devotional Classics, sparkles with energy, friendship and faith. As you meet Francis, remember that even across these 800 years, he is your brother in Christ. What does he say to you today?

Your response is most welcome! To begin...

** Placed in "great agony of doubt", what does Francis do? How do you address your own doubts?

** What roles do other people play in Francis's life?

** How does Francis respond when the will of Christ is made known to him? How would you react?

** If Francis were living today, what would be your opinion of him?

Next week is spring break at the university, so we will not meet. Consider looking back over past entries. You can still make comments! On March 13 we will read Catherine of Siena.
