What Proves That We Are Truly Christians?

Being a Christian, therefore, is not simply a matter of belonging to a religion. It means gradually becoming another Christ to the people God places along our path. »

True Freedom Is Found in Jesus Christ

For when we love, we move beyond ourselves, break the chains of selfishness, and discover the joy of living for others. «
