Pope:St. Paul Would Be Texting,Tweeting Today; Praises Paul's Face to Face Christian Spread

 If he were alive today, even St. Paul would be texting, tweeting, and firing off emails to get the news out, Pope Francis said today (January 23, 2021) in his message for the Roman Catholic Church's World Day of Social Communication, according to  the Reuters website.


St. Paul, who lived in the first century of the Christian era, spread the new faith into Europe and Asia Minor, and is believed to have written a great part of the New Testament.


Still, Francis said Paul was at his best while preaching in person, saying journalists and other communicators today should do more "hitting the streets...meeting people face to face to research stories or to verify certain situations first-hand."
