Aim For The Spiritual Good Of Your Listeners


I advise and admonish that in your preaching, your words be examined and chaste. You should aim only at the advantage and spiritual good of your listeners, telling them briefly about vice and virtue, punishment and glory, because our Lord himself kept his words short on earth.

Saint Francis of Assisi
The Rule of 1223
Chapter 8
