(, Nov. 10, 2015)
Author Aaron Alford journeys with Saint Francis as he makes a pilgrimage to Assisi, Italy, the home of the world's most beloved saint. As he recounts his own stories of encountering the poor and broken, we see these stories interact with stories from the life of Francis of Assisi. Familiar stories of Francis take on new life as they are told in imaginative detail, and contrasted with stories of the 21st century urban poor.
