POPE TALK | KAIROS GLOBAL | AUGUST 2022

Author: Dr Kochurani Joseph

Evangelisation is not personal activism but a witness of love.

Lord calls all Christians to be ambassadors of peace and peace begins with us.

Faith is never a walk in the park, but is instead demanding, sometimes arduous.

Youth must use well and responsibly the time that is available: it is in this way that one grows and prepares oneself to take on more demanding tasks. 

Resisting anger takes tremendous interior strength and so ask God for help.

Society would become cold and unbearable without welcoming families and generous families give warmth to society.

Do not sugarcoat your witness of the Gospel, but let the truth be made manifest even through your weakness.

Let Jesus Christ feed the hungers of your life.

Follow St Paul’s wisdom when using technology to spread the Gospel. From St Paul, we learn anew passion for the Gospel and missionary spirit, from a pastoral heart, pushed to make himself everything to everyone.

The Virgin Mary teaches us to live ‘Eucharistically’, to give thanks, to cultivate praise, and to not be fixated only on problems and difficulties. 

The Trinity inspires us to live with others and for others. 

Pornography is a threat to public health, the dignity of men and women is also threatened by the inhumane and increasingly widespread practise in which women, and children are exploited, treated as commodities.

Don’t hide wrinkles, it’s the heart that matters; wrinkles are a sign of experience, a sign of life, a sign of maturity, a sign of having made a journey and the heart remains with the youth of good wine, the more it ages, the better it is.
