(Image Source: Wikimedia Commons ) Do you want to honor Christ’s body? Then do not scorn Him in His nakedness, nor honor Him here in the church with silken garments while neglecting Him outside where He is cold and naked…Now in saying this, I am not forbidding you to make such gifts; I am only demanding that along with such gifts and before them you give alms. St. John Chrysostom
“The truth hurts sometimes. If we are going to be taught by God, the fisherman, we first need to be captured by Him. And His hook is going to have a bite. Of course, it's going to hurt.” - Father Donald Calloway, MIC
