Blessed Ramon Llull (1235-1315), Missionary to the Muslims and Martyr
"Death has no terrors for a sincere servant of Christ who is laboring to bring souls to a knowledge of the truth."
Can you figure out why this guy is my hero? I mean, he combines the best elements of catholic Christianity, evangelical zeal, and a missio-centric spirituality focused on the unreached--especially Muslims. What more could you want? Oh yeah: he was a married man and lay missionary.
(Abu Daoud is listening to The Division Bell by Pink Floyd. Have you all heard this album? I really like it, what do you think?)
