Reflection Starter from St. Ignatius of Antioch

"We recognize a tree by its fruit, and we ought to be able to recognize a Christian by his action. The fruit of faith should be evident in our lives, for being a Christian is more than making sound professions of faith. It should reveal itself in practical and visible ways. Indeed it is better to keep quiet about our beliefs, and live them out, than to talk eloquently about what we believe, but fail to live by it." - attributed to Saint Ignatius of Antioch, whose memory the Church celebrates today (17 October)
