Quotes:
“There’s an aspect of simplicity and trying to do things very well (in living a Christian life). So my life feels less divided.” (Rob, 9:45)
“Me going down to visit you in November and giving a talk, regardless of whether it makes a million converts or all it is, is two dudes hanging out, it seems to be an invitation from God. It’s a good. It’s focusing on the relationship as the end and then the mission part flows out of it.” (Connor, 12:20)
“Happiness is one of those strange birds, you don’t hit it by aiming at it.” (Connor misquoting Chesterton’s Fr. Brown, 13:36)
“The point of spiritual direction, as all of life, is the enjoyment of God.” (Connor’s summary of The Practice of Spiritual Direction, 16:57)
“The goal of my life is to be in communion and enjoy God.” (Connor, 17:25)
“Even when I’m cutting my hair and doing my laundry I’m a priest. I belong to Jesus. That’s the point of my life.” (Connor, 18:00)
“The thing about God is that He always tells you the truth.” (Connor, 18:20)
“The things that have brought me peace and joy and freedom is returning to keeping the first things first.” (Mike, 20:04)
“Sooner or later, we enjoy only souls” (from Letters to Young Men as cited in The Priest is Not His Own, 31:41)
“If you’re receiving from the Lord, that’s your place of communion. God being the creator and us being the creature. Then you can receive everything as a gift. And then your day and your ministry is now a gift.” (Mike, 34:46)
“Charitas Christi Urget Nos (The Love of Christ Urges Us Forward)” (40:00)
