Light in the Dark Ages: The Friendship of Francis and Clare of Assisi
The Middle Ages were not so very dark. Rather, we live in 'dark ages' whenever we become preoccupied with power. This portrait of the first Franciscans reveals the temptations that come with being human - greed, competition, ego, and selfishness - as well as the many ways that Francis and Clare inspired change and brought light into darkness.
