Pope Francis needs to publicly appoint an agent to make decisions about his medical care for when he is no longer able to make them himself. Without this appointment, there will be confusion and division in the church.

A new papal document reforming the Curia will soon be published. I’m sure Pope Francis’ heart is in the right place, but I expect to be disappointed.

2020 has tested the heart and soul of America.

It’s not just popes: The church needs more time to examine any person’s life.
