Our Duty - To Witness and Advance the Gospel of Jesus Christ

We have a duty to pursue the Truth, to live it and preach it to others.  And that means we need to respect the beliefs and greatness of other people and work with them to build a more humane world in every legitimate way we can.  But we can never allow that to stop us from witnessing and advancing the Gospel of Jesus Christ with every breath we take.  The only guarantee of real human freedom is God and the truest path to God is through the cross of Jesus Christ.

Archbishop Charles J. Chaput, O.F.M. Cap.

Don't Let The Enemies of Truth Win

 

But, Lord, It Is So Difficult

(Image Source- Wikimedia Commons) Jesus warned that sometimes His teachings would bring conflict to those who accepted and lived them (Luke 12: 49-53)…being true to the Gospel means I will have to stand up for what I believe even if it causes division among those with whom I live and work.   Jesus, do not let my distaste for conflict keep me from supporting and living Your profound teachings.   One Bread, One Body

Let Us Adore Him!

Let us adore Jesus in our hearts, who spent 30 years out of 33 in silence; who began His public life by spending 40 days in silence; who often retired alone to spend the night on a mountain in silence.  He, who spoke with authority, now spends His earthly life in silence.  Let us adore Jesus in the Eucharistic silence.  (Blessed Teresa of Calcutta)
