| Publisher Description: Using resources ranging from scripture to Catholic social teaching to the early Church Fathers, the author examines how Pope Francis's emphasis on the Church of the Poor is calling us to a new epistemic practice, involving an understanding of orthodoxy as discipleship, and discipleship as a new way of getting to know and understand the world. |
