Real jewel in pope’s exhortation comes on married love

A newly married couple arrive in St. Peter's Square to attend Pope Francis' general audience at the Vatican in this Oct. 14, 2015, file photo. Pope Francis' postsynodal apostolic exhortation on the family, "Amoris Laetitia" ("The Joy of Love"), was to be released April 8. The exhortation is the concluding document of the 2014 and 2015 synods of bishops on the family. (CNS photo/Paul Haring) See stories to come.

One gets the sense of a deep pastoral wisdom of a person who has spent long hours listening to married couples, hearing confessions, listening to problems, praying for solutions.
