When you see/taste/touch/smell something awesome, you don't say to yourself, "Wow, this object really sends great signals to my nervous system and my brain interprets the signals in a cool way." Usually, you just say, "This is rad." or something like that, knowing full well that may not truly be explicitly and quantitatively rad compared to everything else in the world. You just kind of make believe something up and enjoy it. You do it for the sheer enjoyment. Maybe religious beliefs can be like that too.

So, this is in her honor:
"It seems to me that these women were the head (κεφάλαιον) of the church which was at Philippi." ~ John Chrysostom, Homilies on Philippians 13
