Reform starts in the heart

Introduction to the Devout Life, Part Third, Chapters 30-41
English-speaking group: Lijo Vadakkan and Mackley Gomes
Reporting the discussion of 5th December 2011



  • Train the Heart to love and all external behavior will automatically be transformed.
  • Virtue lies in the middle so do not look out for extraordinary things but do ordinary things in an extraordinary way.
  • Do your little duties all for the greater glory of God, here and now, and live in the present.
Practical application:

  • never try to transform a person by starting with conformation to external behavior instead start with the interior — start with the Heart and try to build conviction.
Summary by Mackley Gomes
