A pope is the Bishop of Rome and the spiritual leader of the worldwide Roman Catholic Church, which is the largest Christian denomination in the world. The pope is considered the successor to Saint Peter, one of Jesus Christ’s twelve apostles, whom Catholics believe was the first bishop of Rome and to whom Christ gave special authority. As such, the pope holds a position of great religious, moral, and, historically, political influence.
