Many will talk about loving him. Many will analyze what it means to love him. However, a Christian is distinguished and defined by one, and only one, thing: Obedience.

It is a progressive and ongoing choice that defines what it means to love Jesus and be his follower.

Is Christianity a bland, domesticated religion, unthreatening and easy to grasp? Or is it the most exotic, unexpected, and uncanny of religious paths? For the mystics and saints - and for Robert Barron, who discovered Christianity through them - it is surely the strangest way.
