The Marked Life of Saint Teresa Benedicta of the Cross

Homily from the Twentieth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Knowledge without action is useless.

Too often, our problem as followers of Christ is not a lack of knowledge, but a lack of courage. In order for us to live the lives Jesus has made possible by his grace, we do not need to know more. We need to be brave enough to act on what we know.
