DESCRIPTION

Dostoevsky's Grand Inquisitor claimed to have corrected Christ's work and refounded it on the three-legged stool of Mystery, Miracle and Authority. Like Jesus in the desert, we too face the seductions of material comfort , power and security. Are we following Him, or are we lured by the attraction of material things, earthly power or false security?
