It's been an absolute honor to contribute to the conversation, about the Pope and about so much more!

One of the best parts of a year is the end of it ... not because it's a relief to "get it over with," but because in taking stock of a year, one can always see the faithful, generous hand of God at work.

This year, of course, has been huge for all of us in the business of sharing the treasures of the Church. The death of our beloved Pope Francis and the historic arrival of Pope Leo to the Chair of Peter set the whole world talking. It's been an absolute honor to contribute to the conversation, about the Pope and about so much more!

As we look over the past year, it's interesting to see the articles that brought most response from our Aleteia community and beyond. Six of the headlines are particularly special, as you can see in the video above.

But here's a fuller list -- the 20 "most read" of '25. Pick a few and re-enjoy!

From all of us at Aleteia English, and from the teams of all our language editions, we wish our readers and friends a wonderful New Year, with anticipation for continuing this beautiful mission in the year to come!
