Pope Francis has led the Catholic Church for about two and a half
years now, and he has done things different every step of the way,
including before he was even elected. He is a man of firsts that is not
afraid to point out the mistakes of the Church in an effort to create a
better, more accepting future.
Pope Benedict XVI announced in February 2013 that he was resigning from the Papacy. He was the first Pope to do so in roughly 600 years, so there was no precedent to follow.
