It is also service of God, in the place assigned by him: family, profession, City\u2026 Thus, the households that come together to be initiated into spirituality, far from seeking ways to escape the world, strive to learn how, following Christ\u2019s example, to serve God, throughout their whole life and in the midst of the world.”<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_testimonial][et_pb_blurb title=”The Evangelical Ideal: following Christ without Compromise” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”$||divi||400″ image_icon_background_color=”RGBA(255,255,255,0)” _builder_version=”4.27.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_testimonial author=”Henri Caffarel, Monthly Letter of the \u00c9quipes Notre-Dame, November 1962″ portrait_url=”https:\/\/www.henri-caffarel.org\/mediadoc\/2025\/06\/logo.png” quote_icon_color=”#F86C3B” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” body_font=”||on||||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n “The evangelical ideal is not, solely and above all, a body of doctrine to adopt, but Someone to follow. To follow, that is, to learn to think, to act, to live with Him and like Him. And this Someone is not a man of half-measures, nor of compromises. He is the man of a single love, and he asks no less of his disciples: ‘No one,’ he says, ‘can serve two masters’ (Mt 8:24). He knows how to be patient, ‘not to quench the smouldering wick’ (Mt 12:20), but he does not compromise on the ideal. He takes what is given to him, but he asks for everything: ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength and with all your mind’ (Lk 10:27). He claims not a part but the whole: the total gift of intelligence, of the heart, of the will, of life.”<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_testimonial][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#2F5EAA” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”fdf96b50-2e61-4686-a282-af8d74d2ef56″ header_2_text_align=”center” header_2_text_color=”#FFFFFF” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_blog fullwidth=”off” include_categories=”41″ show_thumbnail=”off” show_more=”on” show_author=”off” show_date=”off” show_categories=”off” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_blog][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Conjugal Spirituality\u201cThis means Christianising the whole of family life.
