-22:50 "This is the worst we could do for young people. To take away the perilous adventure that is Christianity. Christianity is not meant since the very beginning to give comfort to people though we are trying very hard to reduce it into a comfort religion. That is why the very symbol of our faith is a man who is not very comfortable, is being nailed on a cross. And of course he is resurrected. But you can still see in his hands the signs of the passion, the wounds are not taken away. The adventure continues, that he goes also through danger, passion, death, and the grand finale of the resurrection... Christian spirituality is anything but safe." Thank you, Father!
I m 62 years old. Listening to Fr. L. Ruggiero made me young again and reinvigorated to live as a Catholic until my dying days.
