Totally anecdotal and coming from a former Episcopalian (left due to liberalism), not a big fan of Catholicism, married to a Catholic.

My wife, in-law’s, and I attended her Church one Sunday when a visiting Jesuit was filling in for the resident (uninspiring) Priest. His service and Homily was the most incredible I’ve experienced including my old Episcopalian Priest that I loved (prior to the liberal takeover). After the service I walked up to him and said, “I’m not a Catholic but here with my wife. If every Catholic Priest could preach like you just did, I’d convert instantly.” He asked my name, thanked me, and gave me a blessing. That guy could convince me to walk barefoot over broken glass happily. If the new Pope is a tenth of that Jesuit, the world is better for it.
