Pascal: convincing the whole man
Feast of Dominic, Priest, Founder of the Order of Preachers, 1221
Meditation:
I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me in leading the Gentiles to obey God by what I have said and done—by the power of signs and miracles, through the power of the Spirit. So from Jerusalem all the way around to Illyricum, I have fully proclaimed the gospel of Christ.—Romans 15:18-19 (NIV)
Quotation:
