It is true that going out on to the street implies the risk of accidents happening, as they would to any ordinary man or woman. but if the church stays wrapped up in itself, it will age. and if i had to choose between a wounded church that goes out on to the streets and a sick, withdrawn church, i would definitely choose the first one.

It Is True That Going Out On

Pope Francis
It is true that going out on to the street implies the risk of accidents happening, as they would to any ordinary man or woman. but if the church stays wrapped up in itself, it will age. and if i had to choose between a wounded church that goes out on to the streets and a sick, withdrawn church, i would definitely choose the first one.

Men Sick Risk

More From Pope Francis

We must avoid the spiritual disease of the church that can become self-referential: when this happens, the church itself becomes sick. it’s true that accidents can happen when you go out into the street, as can happen to any man or woman. but if the church remains closed onto itself, self-referential, it grows old. between a church that goes into the street and gets into an accident and a church that is sick with self-referentiality, i have no doubts in preferring the first.

My childhood is streets upon streets upon streets upon streets. streets to define you and streets to confine you, with no sign of motorway, freeway or highway.
Childhood Highways Streets
From woman, man is born; within woman, man is conceived; to woman he is engaged and married. woman becomes his friend; through woman, the future generations come. when his woman dies, he seeks another woman; to woman he is bound. so why call her bad? from her, kings are born. from woman, woman is born; without woman, there would be no one at all.
Kings Men Generations
Managing risk is a key variable, frankly, all aspects of life, business is just one of them, and one of the things that most people do in terms of managing risk, that's actually bad thinking, is they think they can manage risk to zero. everything has some risk to it. you know, you drive your car down the street, a drunk driver may hit you. so what you're doing is you're actually trying to get to an acceptable level of risk.
Zero Thinking Keys
We are born of woman, we are conceived in the womb of woman, we are engaged and married to woman. we make friendship with woman and the lineage continued because of woman. when one woman dies, we take another one, we are bound with the world through woman. why should we talk ill of her, who gives birth to kings? the woman is born from woman; there is none without her. only the one true lord is without woman
Kings Giving World
Too sick and freaked out not to want a bullet for every passer by, too sick and freaked out to breathe, too sick and freaked out to care, too sick and freaked out to think of anything but the annihilation of my mind and denial of my life. so sick and freaked out that i think everyone is my friend.
