He was born Jorge Mario Bergoglio, the son of a railway worker in Buenos Aires. A boy who once swept floors and manned the register at a bar with his brother. By all accounts, an ordinary lad from a country stitched together by tango, politics, and prayer. But destiny, you see... destiny doesnât always wear robes when it knocks. He was a chemical technician. A literature teacher. A janitor. And once, almost, a husband. For there was a girl, young and beautiful, to whom he wrote love letters. But his heartâhis true heartâhad already been spoken for by Someone Else. He joined the Jesuits, where vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience werenât just ideals... they were marching orders. He walked the alleys of the forgotten, knelt beside the sick, and baptized the unwashed with the tenderness of a shepherd who knew every sheep by name. In March of 2013, white smoke spiraled above St. Peterâs Square, and a humble man stepped onto the worldâs stage. Habemus Papam. And for the first time in 1,200 years, the Vicar of Christ bore a name never before takenâFrancis. Not in gold, but in linen. Not in a limousine, but in a Ford Focus. Not behind palace gates, but among the poor. He refused to live in the Vaticanâs ornate apostolic apartments. Instead, he chose a guest house with a single bed, a small desk, and a crucifix. The Pope, yes... but never far from the priest. He kissed the feet of Muslim refugees. He washed the hands of AIDS patients. He dared speak the words âWho am I to judge?â He turned doctrine into dialogue. Orthodoxy into empathy. And whether you agreed or not, you knew you were in the presence of someone utterly sincere. His critics said he was too soft, too political. But he simply said, âMercy is the name of God.â He saw climate change as a moral issue. Inequality as a theological concern. He believed the Church should smell like the sheepâdusty, tired, and real. And then, as all men must, he reached his final days. No procession of marble horses. No velvet banners. Just the legacy of a man who tried, earnestly, to be more than a Pontiff. A bridge, truly. Between tradition and transformation. Between dogma and love. They say he died with a rosary in hand, a smile on his lips, and peace in his heart. And whether saint or sinner, Catholic or not, the world pausedâjust long enoughâto say thank you. Thank you for showing us that greatness isnât about standing above... but kneeling beside

On this special series with Dr. Bill Sappenfield, we talk about the book of Acts, how the first churches were established, and address the relevance of the question- why are you looking up to heaven?
This is the opening story of Acts when Jesus told his apostles that they would go to the ends of earth.
Luke describes two men standing there in white robes, addressing the apostiles. Didn't Jesus just aske you to be witnesses to go to the ends of the earth?
Dr. Sappenfield talks about the theology of "the spot." Where I used to be....or I'm going to start doing something in the future or there is always something you can do more. If you are going to make a difference in life, this is where you are going to start from. YOU can be a witness to God in this world, in your spot, today.
