Gregory the Great

He was a pope for about fourteen years in the late 500s who was known as the administrator of Rome. He saved the city by negotiating a truce with the Lombards, who were on the verge of destroying everything and killing many people. Even though he as a good administrator, he was also contemplative, prayerful, pastoral, and a gifted writer. He is a good example for me on how to engage power structures while also using other skills God has given me to impact others.
