Dominican Root: Faith realized through Action

Inward Contemplation, Outward Action

Paradox of Christian Faith

A polarizing set of ideas in faith that go against each other.

Certain, yet Obscure

It is our surest foundation, yet we walkby faith, not by scientific proof.

Free, yet Obliging

God never forces us, but unconditional love naturally demands a response.

Reasonable, yet Beyond Reason

It makes logical sense, but requires divine grace to comprehend.

A Gift, yet Our Doing

God freely gives the grace, but we must actively listen and cooperate.

Personal, yet Ecclesial

It is an individual choice, but nourished and lived out within a community.

An Act, yet A Process

It starts with a single decision, but takes a lifetime to mature.
