Description
“Mercy is the first attribute of God. The name of God is mercy. There are no situations we cannot get out of, we are not condemned to sink into quicksand.”
With simple, direct words, Pope Francis addresses every man and woman on the planet, establishing an intimate and personal dialogue. At the centre is the subject closest to his heart: mercy. In conversation with Vatican journalist Andrea Tornielli, Francis explains – through memories of his childhood and moving episodes from his experience as a pastor – the complex relationship between mercy, justice and corruption.
