The Way: Meditations for a Christian Life
"It is the most rudimentary and elementary truth of the Christian gospel that the believer should be united with Christ. We all understand it, we all expect it. This alliance with Jesus can be considered the content of faith, and the purpose of sacraments. Baptism unites us with Christ, in the Eucharist we commune with Christ. The objective of our daily prayer service of neighbor is to become more like Christ. This is the most rudimentary and elementary truth of the Christian gospel.
            When we hear those words in Church it sounds soothing, but in this book Fr. Serafino faces up to the truth under the rigorous light of realism. “Jesus calls us to save souls through suffering. It is not a pleasant message, but it is evidence of the very life of Our Lord.” Do you want Christ’s life in you? Do you want to live Christ’s life? Do you seek evidence of Christ’s life in you? Then examine what Christ’s life was like. Weak. Small. Suffering. A lamb. The power of the world belongs to the evil one, with its trappings and displays of power, and Jesus does not play by those rules. He says that all authority has been given to him, and from that authority comes a power of love that is completely different from the power that comes from the world. Jesus will do the opposite of the prince of this world in order to bring about his Father’s kingdom".
