Image
The church does not need apologists of its causes nor crusaders of its battles, but sowers humble and confident of the truth, who ... trust of its power
Pope Francis
Image
Are we capable of bringing the word of God into the environment in which we live? Do we know how to speak of Christ, of what he represents for us, in our families, among the people who form part of our daily lives? Faith is born from listening, and is strengthened by proclamation.
Pope Francis
Image
Don't let anyone rob you of hope.
Pope Francis
Image
The people of God want pastors, not clergy acting like bureaucrats or government officials.
Pope Francis
Image
I see the church as a field hospital after battle. It is useless to ask a seriously injured person if he has high cholesterol and about the level of his blood sugars. You have to heal his wounds. Then we can talk about everything else.
Pope Francis
Image
It makes no difference whether they be Catholics, Orthodox, Copts or Protestants. They are Christians! Their blood is one and the same. Their blood confesses Christ.
Pope Francis
Image
Don't confuse the evil of avoiding pregnancy by itself, with abortion.
Pope Francis
Image
Our prayer cannot be reduced to an hour on Sundays. It is important to have a daily relationship with the Lord.
Pope Francis
Image
Even today we raise our hand against our brother... We have perfected our weapons, our conscience has fallen asleep, and we have sharpened our ideas to justify ourselves as if it were normal we continue to sow destruction, pain, death. Violence and war lead only to death.
Pope Francis
Image
Before I give you a blessing, I ask you for a favor: I want you to bless me.
Pope Francis
Image
Too often we participate in the globalization of indifference. May we strive instead to live global solidarity.
Pope Francis
Image
Let us pray that the Church be holier and more humble, loving God by serving the poor, the lonely and the sick.
Pope Francis
Image
Wars are always madness: all is lost in war, all is to be gained in peace.
Pope Francis
Image
True love does not pay attention to the evil it suffers. It rejoices in doing good.
Pope Francis
Image
When evangelizers rise from prayer, their hearts are more open freed of self-absorption, they are desirous of doing good and sharing their lives with others.
Pope Francis
Image
Each of us has a vision of good and of evil. We have to encourage people to move towards what they think is Good.
Pope Francis
Image
Abortion is not the lesser of two evils. It is a crime. It is to throw someone out in order to save another.
Pope Francis
Image
If the Christian is a restorationist, a legalist, if he wants everything clear and safe, then he will find nothing. Tradition and memory of the past must help us to have the courage to open up new areas to God.
Pope Francis
Image
Since God created the world, He also created reality.
Pope Francis
Image
It is now, more than ever, necessary that political leaders be outstanding for honesty, integrity and commitment to the common good.
