The Moral Vision of Pope Francis

"The moral vision of Pope Francis: Is he changing church teaching?" by Keith Warner, OFM, Associate Professor of Ethics & Spirituality, is the fourth lecture of the Franciscan Zoom Lecture Series - Fall 2024 Semester, hosted by the Franciscan School of Theology at the University of San Diego.

Pope Francis expresses deep moral convictions in words and actions. The tone and emphases of his moral instruction, however, have been so pastoral that critics don’t even recognize him as teaching moral theology. This presentation by Keith Warner, OFM, Associate Professor of Ethics & Spirituality, reviews the approach of Pope Francis and interprets his vision for the moral life of Christians today.
