"God or Nothing: A Conversation on Faith ) by Cardinal Robert Sarah , Nicolas Diat"

“After his encounter with Jesus, a real Christian changes his conduct.”

“On the question of marriage, there is a gulf between some people and the Church. The question, therefore, becomes quite simple: Must the world change its attitude, or must the Church change her fidelity to God?”

“At the heart of man there is an innate silence, for God abides in the innermost part of every person.”

“Many expect, as something normal, that God should pour out his mercy on them while they remain in sin...”

“Baptized persons have the duty to believe not only with their heart but also with their intellect.”

“No prophet ever encountered God without withdrawing into solitude and silence. Moses, Elijah, and John the Baptist encountered God in the great silence of the desert. Today, too, monks seek God in solitude and silence. I am speaking, not just about geographical solitude or movement, but about an interior state. It is not enough to be quiet, either. It is necessary to become silence. For, even before the desert, the solitude and the silence, God is already in man. The true desert is within us, in our soul. Strengthened with this knowledge, we can understand how silence is indispensable if we are to find God. The Father waits for his children in their own hearts.”
