"You aim at a devout life, dear Philothea, because as a Christian you know that such devotion is most acceptable to God's Divine Majesty," says St. Francis de Sales in his book "Introduction to the Devout Life".
And we can all be Philotheas, as St. Francis notes: "I have made use of a name suitable to all who seek the devout life, Philothea meaning one who loves God."

Deacon Pat and a Pagan
My friend Deacon Pat Kearns offers this little video on evangelizing the culture. Deacon Pat loves God, but he's also a true Irishman with a love for beer - and a particular brand of beer at that - as you will see if you watch the video through to the end!
Note: Deacon Pat offers to have a beer with the pagan. However, we're not talking a major, well-publicized fundraiser banquet here, and Deacon Pat doesn't even mention the potential photo op. Neither does the pagan appear to be a well-known public figure who promotes killing babies. Just sayin...
