Defending the truth is an act of love for the Church and for souls. 💬 Thought to Remember “I am well aware that I owe my life to Him, so that every word and thought of mine should speak of Him.” St. Hilary of Poitiers Reflection: This quote shows that Hilary understood faith as total belonging to Christ.
