It is no use walking anywhere to preach unless our walking is our preaching.
St. Francis of Assisi
How true is that, you can talk the talk, but can you walk the walk? That in a nut shell is what the message of Jesus was all about.
Knowing our faith is important, but to live it out, daily is what it is all about. I would rather walk the walk as best i can, and not know everything, then know everything and never walk the walk.
That is what a lot of people do today, they can quote the bible, the church documents and all, but they can not walk as a christian. how sad!
Yes, study what it means to be Catholic, learn all you can, but also learn how to live Catholic, how to talk Catholic and how to be Catholic. Faith is not just knowledge, in fact I would say that faith is mostly practice, living it out daily. The knowledge will help you become a better Catholic, but it will not make you one.
So learn to walk and talk the faith….
Paul
