Patristic Quote of the Day

You are a soldier of Christ, beloved; take up arms, not cosmetics. You are a noble athlete; act like a man, not a fashion statement. In this way let us imitate these saints, in this way let us honor the warriors, the crowned victors, the friends of God, and by walking the same road as them, we shall attain the same crowns as them.—St. John Chrysostom, On Saint Barlaam par. 12.
