Boston Globe journalist and Catholic commentator Michael OâLoughlin opens a wonderful window into the heart and revolutionary mission of Pope Francis by examining his extensive and revelatory use of social mediaâpublished to coincide with the pontiffâs visit to the United States in September 2015.
Michael OâLoughlin uses Pope Francisâs almost daily âtweetsâ to his 21 million followers to explain why this pope has captured the worldâs imagination and to explore his strategy and vision for the Catholic Church. Grouped by the Popeâs most pressing concernsâforgiveness, mercy, injustice, poverty, war, joy, the environment, and moreâThe Tweetable Pope uses Francisâ pithy 140-character (or fewer) missives as a prism to view the biographical, historical, and spiritual context of his messages and how each is part of a larger vision.
OâLoughlin contends that these seemingly simple communications provide a direct line to the Popeâs heart, illuminating a peaceful, loving, and courageous visionary committed to restoring the church to the original Christian tenets of its founder, Jesus Christâlove, mercy, grace, and compassionâand reshaping it as a force for change to help the most needy. A thoughtful and enlightening examination of how the pope is using this exciting and fascinating new medium to communicate directly to his flock, The Tweetable Pope is an inspiring and moving testimony of how we, too, can be more centered on what matters most to God.
