Honesty means sharing things you might consider inappropriate for conversation with God.

Pope Francis' remarks from his general audience on Wednesday, March 3.

We must ask ourselves: Is my ambition driven by the desire serve, or do I simply want a better seat at the table?

Our list of sins may be long; but God’s forgiveness is limitless, and in today’s Gospel, he has given us the key to receiving his mercy: “Forgive and you will be forgiven.”

One way of repenting during Lent is to acknowledge our narrow attitudes about who is “in” and who is “out.” Jesus’ message is emphatically that everyone is in.

The cardinal called it “a great honor and privilege” to offer the prayer at the invitation of Jake Tapper, CNN anchor and chief Washington correspondent, on the program “We Remember 500,000: A National Memorial Service for Covid-19.”
