      • "Christianity asserts that each of us possesses a soul which will exist eternally. This statement can only be one of two things; either true or false. Now there are a good many things which I might not concern myself with if I were to simply vanish when I die, but which I ought to soberly consider if I am to live forever. In my mind, I have no doubt whatsoever that the chief of those considerations must be Christ." CS Lewis

              • "I can tell you with all certainty that God exists, as anyone who has ever sought Him with sincerity can attest. The problem faced by comfortable societies is that in their comfort they forget who made them comfortable. So guess what God does? He allows those whom He once made comfortable to become uncomfortable – He does not do this out of spite, but out of love, that we may awake from foolishness and be reconciled to Him while our souls may still be saved." ― Brother Giacomo

                    • "So much beauty, so much diversity, in land, beast and man; too much intricacy, too much design and too much harmony for this to be 'evolution'. I am telling you plainly, it is not! Instead, it is the work of an almighty God who is all powerful and all loving. Everyday His arms are open wide to all who will receive Him, to those who will take the time to discover Him. Make that choice, and you will never ever look back." Brother Giacomo

                          • "If a thing is free to be good, then it is also free to be bad; indeed free will is what made evil possible in this world. Why then did God give mankind free will? The answer is because free will, though it makes evil possible, is also the only means by which authentic love may be expressed and experienced; and love, changes everything." CS Lewis

                                        • "Now there were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. Then the angel said to them, 'Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger.' And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying: Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men!" St. Luke

                                          • Each year we receive an opportunity to start again, to make our life anew. Not so in a world where people are slow to forgive and quick to punish, in a world where some would have us carry the penalty of our sins forever. But God says: "Come now, let us reason together. Though your sins be as scarlet, yet I shall make them whiter than snow; though they be like crimson, I shall make them as newly shorn wool." Brother Giacomo quoting the Prophet Isaiah
