"For two millenia, that same Church has proclaimed what it considers to be a fundamental truth: that God himself chose to take on our human nature to free us from sin, to give us hope in the face of death and human mortality. In that vein, it is worth keeping in mind that an institution living through one of its most challenging periods in recent history has had some blessings to count lately, small yet bright rays peeking through the dark cloud that has been the year 2020."
