Pope Francis says Catholic Church should stop focusing on abortion and gay marriage

Pope Francis says the Catholic Church is likely to fall like a house of cards if it continues to be too focused on abortion, gay marriage and contraception. In an interview for a Jesuit journal he said it needs to become more merciful. He also compared the Church to a hospital in a battle field, claiming it needs to heal the wounds.

Father James Cassidy is Premier's Catholic Commentator and told Premier's Des Busteed on the News Hour what he made of the Pontiff's words:

A Monthly Gift Of $11 Makes A World Of Difference

In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.

Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.

For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.

Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
