Quotes by David Vincent Meconi  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Christians are to live their lives on earth dour and sullen; they enjoy the goods of this world as anyone is entitled. Yet they do so with a constant gratitude expressed through virtuous moderation and with an eye toward the giver of all good gifts. Christians are unified in love of their enemies and are therefore able to endure hatred in return because they know to whom they truly and eternally belong.”
David Meconi, Christ Unfurled: The First 500 Years of Jesus's Life
