Quotes About Christianity

One of the joys of being a Christian or being a person of faith is that you believe deep down that death isn't the worst thing, you know. Not living your life: that's the worst thing. And death is not, it's not all it's cracked up to be. It's not, it's not the end of the world.

There are a lot of people who consider themselves 'spiritual,' but that can mean a lot of things to a lot of people.

There is nothing that we could call 'new', because once Christianity had been proclaimed, once Christ came and established His Church, there is nothing more that can be new.
