I'm not sure what Lebell wants to see refreshed, but here's a little about John XIII.
The Life of John XIII
The Second Vatican Council It resulted in huge changes in the church that still cause controversy, especially among traditional Catholics (Mel Gibson and his father among them). Changed the mass from Latin to the vernacular, formally stated that Jews were not responsible for Christ's death any more than Christians were, stated that other religions contain truth, involved laypeople in mass more, etc.
He was an amazing pope in my estimation.
