Quotes

"When he called his society together, Jesus gave its members a new way of life to live. 

• He gave them a new way to deal with offenders - by forgiving them;
• He gave them a new way to deal with violence - by suffering;
• He gave them a new way to deal with money - by sharing it;
• He gave them a new way to deal with problems of leadership - by drawing upon the gift of every member, even the most humble;
• He gave them a new way to deal with a corrupt society - by building a new order, not smashing the old;
• He gave them a new pattern of relationship between man and woman, between parent and child, between master and slave, in which was made concrete a radical new vision of what it means to be a human person."
