Time Magazine named Pope Francis as Person of the Year. (Read Time’s story about the man, and the choice, here.)
He’s the third pope to be honored by Time in this way, following following Pope John XXIII in 1962 and Pope John Paul II in 1994.

Yes! Great choice, he seems to get the story of Jesus; caring for people.
He seems to be changing the narrative of the church in the world.
It is very encouraging, especially during this time of year, that he was selected instead of Miley Cyrus!!
