Augustine leads us to advance as a community, in the Church that we love as she is, because ‘love brings us into the cohesion of the Body of Christ.’ This seeker of truth asks us to proclaim it by our words and by our whole lives. But as a doctor of charity, he invites us to give everything in love, because ‘only the truth will win the victory, and the victory of truth is charity.’

—Fr. Emmanuel-Marie Le Fébure du Bus

from his book Desire and Unity: Augustinian Spirituality for Today
