“The bottom line is expressed in a famous expression from Pope Benedict XVI, in his 2005 document Deus Caritas Est: ‘Being Christian is not the result of an ethical choice or a lofty idea, but the encounter with an event, a person, which gives life a new horizon and a decisive direction.’ Keep that clear, and all will be well; lose sight of it, and nothing else in the long run will really matter.”
- BISHOP ROBERT BARRON
