10 min • 1 juli 2025

The Little Poor Man (Poverello), Francis of Assisi (1181-1226), was a new kind of saint and mystic. His convert, Clare of Assisi (1194-1253), sought to emulate his life of poverty and apostolic service by founding a female branch of the Franciscan order. Their writings and example formed one of the key traditions in Christian mysticism. In this video, Prof Bernard McGinn, mystics expert and Margaret Lane discuss the role of Francis and Clare of Assisi in the context of the Christian mystics, as part of a WCCM online series 'Into the Mystics'. You can watch the full series on WCCM video streaming platform, WCCM+ at https://wccmplus.org/programs/into-the-mystics Music: Final Soliloquy from YouTube AudioLibrary
