God Is Young ― A Conversation With Thomas Leoncini

Pope Francis examines the role of millennials in the future of the Catholic Church in this urgent call to believers of all generations to work together to build a better world.

Since his election in 2013, Pope Francis has reinvigorated the Catholic Church and become one of the most popular global leaders. Now, His Holiness challenges millennials to lead a "sweet revolution" that unites young and old in a mission to remake the world. Pope Francis reminds Catholics of all ages that "God is young, He is always new." God has energy, spontaneity, and the desire for change--youthful qualities that can be rallied to fight the many problems facing the Catholic Church, and the world at large. In this inspiring interview, published in English for the first time, Pope Francis's solution to these problems is simple: a bridge between generations, between the wisdom of experience and the courage of youth.

POPE FRANCIS was born Jorge Mario Bergoglio in Buenos Aires on December 17th, 1936. On March 13th, 2013, he became the Bishop of Rome and the 266th Pope of the Catholic Church.
