Spiritual Quotes

Finally, the importance of apophatic...theology, underlining the mystery and transcendence of God even while affirming the divine presence and immanence, dictates a reluctance to define or pontificate on matters of ethical importance. The deeper conviction always is that the truth can never be objectified or exhausted, while each human person is also uniquely created in the image of God, never able to be reduced to anything less than a mystery.

        - Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew

Radical Forgiveness

February 25, 2015 - by Fr. Antony Hughes
Today we are reminded that we must be forgiving. Forgiveness is a radical thing indeed! He asks us to forgive when it is easy and when it is not. He asks us to forgive our love ones and also our enemies. He asks us to turn aside from all thoughts of anger and revenge and take the highest possible road, the narrow road of absolute, unconditional love. Read more »
