Pope Francis on Christian Speech

“Let us think closely today: What is our language? Do we speak in truth, with love, or do we speak with that social language to be polite, even say nice things, which we do not feel?”

In a recent homily on the readings for the Tuesday of the Ninth Week in Ordinary Time, Pope Francis reflected on the role of speech in the lives of Christians, and he emphasized that the truth we speak must always be accompanied by love.
