Wedding Bell Schmooze

Today’s my twenty-second wedding anniversary. What follows are the words of St. John Chrysostom that I used to dedicate my book The Fathers of the Church to my wife Terri. I published them here on Valentine’s Day, but I never tire of repeating some things.

An intelligent, discreet, and pious young woman is worth more than all the money in the world. Tell her that you love her more than your own life, because this present life is nothing, and that your only hope is that the two of you pass through this life in such a way that, in the world to come, you will be united in perfect love.

  1. Congratulations! And that quote is so beautiful. I will share it with my best friend of 17 years, for I know it is how he feels, too.

  2. Congratulations to you both, Mike! Happy anniversary!
