Anti-Fragile Faith

Christian faith and Christian joy are more than mere feelings. Faith is confidence in the Person and promises of God. Joy is the sense of well- being that is the fruit of something else. It is the fruit of a life lived in God. A life “lived in God” is eminently practical. If a person lives their anti-fragile faith in every environment, one can experience the joy that thrives in any environment. Fr.
