Here lies the test of truth, the touchstone
of evangelization: it is unthinkable
that a person should accept the Word and give himself to the kingdom without
becoming a person who bears witness to it and proclaims it in his turn.
--Pope Paul VI
What is a touchstone?
A touchstone was originally a black stone (like flint)
used to test the purity of gold and silver
by the streak left on the stone when rubbed by the metal.
How does your witness to the kingdom
hold up to the test?
hold up to the test?
