Quotemeal: Jun. 10th, 1949

Friday, June 10, 1949

"If our faith is not relevant to our daily life in the world and in the parish, then it is no use; and if we cannot be Christians in our work, in the neighborhood, in our political decisions, then we had better stop being Christians. A piety reserved for Sundays is no message for this age."
— Douglas Rhymes
