"The Jews ask for miracles and the Greeks for a higher knowledge, while we proclaim a crucified Messiah. For the Jews, what a great scandal! And for the Greeks, what non-sense! But HE is CHRIST, the power of GOD, and the wisdom of GOD, for those called by GOD among both Jews and Greeks.
In reality, the "foolishness" of GOD is wiser than humans, and the "weakness" of GOD is stronger than humans." - 1 Corinthians 1:22-25
(In evangelization it will always cost us to work with poor resources in a world subject to media. We need to count on the grace of GOD because we are weak and without titles of prestige. It will cost us to remind our communities of the poverty of JESUS and to be criticized by those who are well off in the world.)
