"One does not proclaim the Gospel standing still, locked in an office, at one’s desk or at one’s computer, arguing like ‘keyboard warriors’ and replacing the creativity of proclamation with copy-and-paste ideas taken from here and there," said Pope Francis this morning addressing the faithful gathered in St. Peter's Square for the customary Wednesday general audience.
Quoting a verse from the letter to the Galatians , Francis invited us to beware of"a misdirected zeal, bent on observing purely human and obsolete norms for the Christian community. One can boast of a false evangelical zeal while actually pursuing vainglory or one's own convictions'. Paul speaks of zeal as a disciple's 'shoe', because 'he who goes out to proclaim must move, must walk'. And citing the analogy with armour in battle, it also becomes"the footing" even on the most treacherous terrain.
Greeting the groups of pilgrims present, the pontiff then recalled the 60th anniversary of the promulgation of John XXIII's encyclical"Pacem in Terris", which falls in these days.
