Pope Francis Quotations | Page 2

There is no such thing as low-cost Christianity. Following Jesus means swimming against the tide, renouncing evil and selfishness

The crucifix does not signify defeat or failure. It reveals to us the Love that overcomes evil and sin.

Christianity spreads through the joy of disciples who know that they are loved and saved.

Indifference towards those in need is not acceptable for a Christian.

The family is threatened by growing efforts on the part of some to redefine the very institution of marriage, by relativism, by the culture of the ephemeral, by a lack of openness to life... These realities are increasingly under attack from powerful forces, which threaten to disfigure God's plan for creation.

Our prayer cannot be reduced to an hour on Sundays. It is important to have a daily relationship with the Lord.

The cross of Christ, embraced with love, never brings sadness with it, but joy, the joy of being saved and of doing a little of what he did on the day of his death.

Dear young people, always be missionaries of the Gospel, every day and in every place.

The Christian life is not limited to prayer, but requires an ongoing dedication and courage born of prayer.

Jesus is the sun and Mary is the dawn announcing his rising.
