I am an alcoholic. It has been my coping mechanismn for years for different reasons. Past week I started to pray to the Lord to help me to defeat this addiction. I quit drinking today, it's hard but I feel the Lord helping me. This sermon coming to me today, shows me that the Lord is on my side and is standing with me in this hard battle. The Lord will save me. Thank you bishop for this sermon. Pray for this sinner if you can find it in your heart.
In my 70 years of life and of being a Catholic, I have heard too many sermons/homilies telling me it is my fault that Jesus had to suffer so terribly. That I should be constantly guilty for causing Jesus’ suffering and death, that because of my sins I will never be good enough. In the back of my mind I felt, not so, there is more to this. Yes, I am sorry for my sins (and I go to confession often) but it is the love and mercy of God given to me through the absolute love of Jesus in his redemptive death on the cross that is my source of joy, not guilt. I am loved completely because nothing will separate God’s love from me, and everyone. Jesus took on everything, every suffering not to make us feel guilty but to show us and give us the embrace of mercy, love, freedom from guilt. How do we respond to that? By taking up our cross daily and loving and forgiving and being joyful. Give each other a smile.
I am starting to believe that excellent sermons via social media will help revive the Church . Too often we hear awful sermons every Sunday at our parishes. We understand the holiest and sacrifice of the mass, but tolerate poor sermons. I listen to Bishop Barron every Sunday, sometimes before mass. Let’s start the trend. Bravo Bishop.
Thank You Bishop Barron. I need to hear this one. Anxiety likes to try and take over my heart, but I'm learning to immediately hand it over to Jesus before it takes root.💕✝️💕
This lent has been a journey thus far. To surrender to Jesus took on a whole new meaning to me, and I am earnestly trying to learn to let go and give to God.
Bishop Barron, you really have the gift, the ability to break open the Word of God for us, and explain it in terms we can understand. You don’t speak over our heads. Thank you for sharing this gift with the world! Thank you for speaking the truth!
@@davido3026ok, yes YOU are true... But why GOD sent to Bishop Barron the Holy Spirit and not, perhaps, on You ? (it is my humble and personal opinion and of course I can be mistaken)
@@adelbertleblanc1846 " He breathed on them and said: Receive the Holy Spirit, to whom you forgive sins, they will be forgiven and retained to whom you retain them! I send you as I am sent by my father, baptize them in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy spirit"!! Sent is the word!!! No catholic priest comes on their own! Hope this helps you brother. The Holy Spirit can whisper on our ears, but we cannot forgive sins!
Thank you, Bishop Barron. My fears stem from abandonment by people I have trusted particularly at critical times when I felt that I needed their support. Your teaching made me realize how much Jesus was abandoned, but even more comforting, how Jesus, my Savior, has never abandoned me!
Thank You, Bishop Barren for the incredible sermon that truly moved my Spirit. So many great nuggets of truth. I wrote the entire sermon in my journal so I can read it often. Exactly what I needed to hear.
Bishop Barron is the Fulton Sheen in this day.and age. His deep interpretation of the gospel is exceptional. Hearing it deepens our understanding of the word of God. May the good Lord bless and keep you always dear Bishop. 🙏
Psalms 23:4 Even if I go through the deepest darkness, I will not be, afraid, Lord, for you are with me. Your shepherd's rod and staff protect me. Thank you Bishop Barron the message ✝️
"You look at the seraph serpent and you are cured, you look at the cross and you find eternal life" Thanks Bishop for this inspirational message. I will face my fears by looking at the cross of Jesus!
But if Jesus Christ was truly of God, then why don't the Jews buy it & what are Mormons, but a joke made on them all? Yours is the mindset of slavery, My sheep hear My voice.
This was one of Bishop Barren's most profound homilies. I am in tears. Thank you Bishop Barren for your love of God. Your zeal and your passion in proclaiming the Word of God.
For the first time in all my years I now understand why Jesus said father why have you forsaken me. For years that has alluded me. I know understand. Thank you Bishop Barron for this gift. and thank you and all who work with you to spread the word and help to bring meaning to the words.
That is the mystery of God, what appears old is always new!!! The church is mother and magister, we need to cling and listen only to her!!! That is wisdom!!!
Thank you Jesus for loving me and dying for my sins. I don't deserve what you did for me. Help me to be a better person. Please Lord help me with my temper and patience. I ask this in your holy name Jesus Christ. 💜🙏🕊
"What are you seeing on the Cross? *All the suffering and fear that bedevils us. At the same time, and here's the heart of the Gospel, you see the God who accompanies us in and through all of it."*
What makes you think your faith is respectable? Men have always known God as a tool of fiction & nothing fails like prayers in a children's hospital. How is it possibly ethical to suggest the equivalent of a notion we all travel with one foot in a stranger's fantasyland, using fictional vocabulary: prophecy, prayer, etc.? Moses: World's worst navigator leads everyone following as if one travels best with one foot in The Garden of Eden. Believers mindlessly suggest it is a good idea for us to suspend our disbelief, granting God made Mormons so Christians would know how Jews feel. Jesus Christ says faith is worthless as a mustard seed when it comes to telling mountains to move with expectations of obedience. The Christian gospels have a joke called the zombie apocalypse and they are played to embarrassment about it now. The gospels have given us the new Jews, but this one gives guidance to eat the body & drink the blood, which is abhorrent, this is what comes of putting the new wine of Christ into an old Jew wineskin. Atwill rests upon great shoulders & now we know the joke. Jesus says, think not I come with peace, but sword, & lists more horrors of The Teacher. What makes you think your faith is respectable?

See videos: New research expands on J Atwill's discovery that the story of Jesus is a parody of Emperor' Titus' victories. Paul the Apostle: Liar and Conman | James Valliant, Rabbi Tovia Singer Faith is used all the time in this fiction. All men know God is a tool of fiction. The context is a gathering crowd upon which Jesus is reminded of Jonah. The point is faith is worthless: The superstitious are dangerous. Luke 11:29-36 "As the crowds increased", Jesus said, “This is a wicked generation. It asks for a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah. Jonah 1:15-17 KJV So they took up Jonah and cast him forth into the sea: and the sea ceased from her raging. Then the men feared the LORD exceedingly, and offered a sacrifice unto the LORD, and made vows. The superstitious crowd is wicked. The Joke is having a miracle in every chapter. The link is to Moses, who we know as the worst navigator in the world, with one foot in The Garden of Eden. Gal 3:13 "Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us." This is Jesus giving a righteous tongue whipping to people seeking signs, wonders, a circus, a clown, a miraculous happening. Those seeking someone with magic powers. Of course, such things are impossible, because if you had the smallest amount of faith, you could move mountains in fantasyland. Everyone knows God is a tool of fiction. The wicked believes by signs. The Book of Jonah 11 Then they said to him, "What shall we do to you, that the sea may quiet down for us?" For the sea grew more and more tempestuous. 12 He said to them, "Take me up and throw me into the sea; then the sea will quite down for you; for I know it is because of me that this great tempest has come upon you." Rsv It is by faith Jonah was picked up and tossed overboard, being mindless, he asked for it.

You seem like a sick individual who wallows in doom and confusion. Be humble and surrender to God's love. You don't even have to understand it. Just humble yourself and invite it in.
Love this message and all messages on Sunday, I'm not a Catholic. I'm methodist, but the message of God is true in John 3:16, and the verses before. Can't wait to see you in August at Word on Fire.
This is excellent! Come on, everybody, let's invite our fears in for tea and participate with Mary, the undoer of knots, in some Parish Territory Ministry! 😃!
The bronze serpent: look at your ugliness, take knowledge of them, and you will be cured! Look at Jesus on the cross; how your mistakes, your sins have scorched Jesus... He still loves you! Thank you bishop Barron you bring light in the darkness!
Wow wow-this is the heart of it all. Cannot thank you enough, Bishop, for being open to God to receive this profound truth and communicating it to us in a way easy to receive ❤
That was your best talk yet. your Excellency! No Aquinas. No scholarliness. Just plain and simple insight on the human condition. That is what we learn from the Jews in whole healing. That is what our Lord offers if you dare seek Him. Face your fear. Awesome. Not just look but face with your whole heart, mind and being. Deuteronomy 6:4
I hear Jesus say to me many times each day, “ I am with you, I am with you , I am with you”. Keep your eyes on JESUS and absorb His LOVE for you. Many people want to be spiritual but want to skip the cross. I have it in my heart to pray for you. 21 years, one day at a time. Jesus restored my life. Stay with Him at the foot of the cross. He will raise you up with Him.. JOY He will be in your heart. Let Him!!! There but for the Grace of God go I…. Thank you Bishop Baron, you are His instrument. God
II listen to BishopBarron at work , it’s amazing . The teaching is next level. I used to love science and philosophy and still do but God is Next Level Comfort and Wisdom.
🙏❤️ Thank you Bishop Barron! I needed this. I've allowed fear to control me my entire life. I'm trying to get over my fear of driving. I pray for God to give me courage everytime I pray. I am leaving my fears in God's hands.
Thank you Bishop Barron. Your brilliant mind, and your healthy psychological state, and emotional maturity, along with your faith and love of service, inspire me. God bless the clarity of your heart and mind! (And yes, I have a illustraion of Shakyamuni Buddha seated in meditation, while his projected fears swirl vividly around him. It takes courage, and humility, to have faith). Faith, not fear. May all beings be happy, healthy, safe, and know true liberation. Salaam~Shalom~ Peace 🕯🙏🏽💕
Once again, Bishop Barron has masterfully illuminated the meaning of a well-known Biblical text by elaborating on important context. Truly we can count on God Who loved us so much He came to us and faced the worst pain and then redeemed it as the means to bring us to life. That is Good News!
A point for further discussion that would be beyond the scope of this homily is how much exposure to give ourselves. If we're afraid of something, it might not be helpful to start out full force, like Christ facing the worst of human suffering. Since I'm not an expert, I'll leave it to them to offer their insights.
I just adore and look forward to your Sunday Sermon. We get so distracted during the homilies at church with noises and parish announcements prior to the homily that totally distracts us from the word of God. Thank you once again Bishop Barron - I fight with my fears everyday and ask God and St. Michael to defend us from all evil.
Thank you Lord and Bishop Barron as a 27 year old young man. The Lord is teaching me this lesson after a upbringing of trauma. The Lord provides. I need to be strong and courageous as His Word says.
God is good. Thanks for sharing this. It's something that I needed as I'm starting my retirement process, moving from a small village to the city because of the lack of housing so that my developmentally disabled sister & her son can come to live with me. I appreciate you being here !
As always, great respect to you Bishop Barron. Physical and psychological suffering/pain is very hard to overcome. But I believe, my faith is strong and the only thing I can do is persevere. I will NOT give up! 🙏📿🙏
@davido3026 please read John 14; 16+17! "And I (Jesus) will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever- 17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you". Jesus himself said so! I believe Him!🙏
@lidaskissners1017 The Lord Jesus was addressing his 12 Apostles . They received him on resurrection Sunday and was again confirmed on Pentecost day when Peter addressed the jews on Pentecost day 33AD!! He confirmed Peter's decision on electing a new Apostle!! The Holy Spirit dwells in the Catholic church ever since!! Do not twist the word!!
Thank you, Bishop Barron. As always, it is as if you come personally into my house and speak directly and... relevant. A week of spiritual doubt, I think your sermon offered a companion, not to dissolve the doubt, but sit with me as I struggle with it. Be well, please. Blessings.
Thank You, Bishop Barron for the sermon that touched my Soul. I feel as though God brought me to hear this very specific sermon with John 3:16 being one of my favorite scriptures. I'm going through everything you shared about Fear. Thank you for teaching me how to change my thinking. I feel inspired.✝✝✝
From the first time I was sent an email of one of your sermons from a friend, it has now become beautiful and inspiring messages to me from GOD via you Bishop Barron. I thank you for restoring my faith in your exp,anations and advice, thank you and GOD bless you always 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Believer in visual healings... carry The Rosary with you at all times..The Blessed Virgin Mary knows your fears before you know it... She's your best ally to conquer your fears..God bless Word on Fire cast and crew
All Bishop Barron's sermons are meaningful, but this one was among his most powerful. I will now revisit the scene in "The Chosen" when Nicodemus has his clandestine meeting with Jesus on the rooftop. We, believers, must enjoy His Kingdom on Earth, but the anticipation of His full embrace in Paradise makes me restless for the fruition of our faith journey.
Lord God, thank you for this Bishop Robert. I slowly understand the biblical readings and the gospel better. And above all my useless imaginary fears devoid of grace that sets me apart farther from Christ.
I am an alcoholic. It has been my coping mechanismn for years for different reasons. Past week I started to pray to the Lord to help me to defeat this addiction.

Fully agree , this type of platform is a game changer . This is one reason for loving the internet.
I share your sentiments! We attend Mass, frustrated with an opaque and unclear homily, only to return home and seek Bishop Barron’s clarity.
I agree 💯. God bless you s all. Bishop Barron is a true blessing to every human
Yes. We need powerful preaching

This reminds me of David, he didn't run away from Goliath, he faced everybody's fear.
He welcomed the five enemies!!! the larger one was defeated, and the others did not show up!!! He had a single stone for each of them!!
Or like Samuel facing Saul.
its likely you watched already the film "Cabrini" ,which was an epic flick for me and just watched it few hrs ago!
Everyone ran from Jesus on the cross, but his and our Mother did not!
At the cross, Simon's prophecy was fulfilled, "a sword will pierce your heart"
This is one of the best sermons I have ever heard. Thank you.

Faith is used all the time in this fiction. All men know God is a tool of fiction.
The context is a gathering crowd upon which Jesus is reminded of Jonah. The point is faith is worthless:
The superstitious are dangerous.

The link is to Moses, who we know as the worst navigator in the world, with one foot in The Garden of Eden. Gal 3:13 "Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us."
This is Jesus giving a righteous tongue whipping to people seeking signs, wonders, a circus, a clown, a miraculous happening. Those seeking someone with magic powers. Of course, such things are impossible, because if you had the smallest amount of faith, you could move mountains in fantasyland. Everyone knows God is a tool of fiction. The wicked believes by signs.
The Book of Jonah
11 Then they said to him, "What shall we do to you, that the sea may quiet down for us?"
For the sea grew more and more tempestuous.
12 He said to them, "Take me up and throw me into the sea; then the sea will quite down for you; for I know it is because of me that this great tempest has come upon you." Rsv

Thank you Bishop Barron. Your brilliant mind, and your healthy psychological state, and emotional maturity, along with your faith and love of service, inspire me. God bless the clarity of your heart and mind!
(And yes, I have a illustraion of Shakyamuni Buddha seated in meditation, while his projected fears swirl vividly around him. It takes courage, and humility, to have faith).

Bishop Barron has gifted me so many ah ha moments I feel very blessed to have "met" him.
❤ A heart to heart homily that left us in awe. Thank you !
Once again, Bishop Barron has masterfully illuminated the meaning of a well-known Biblical text by elaborating on important context. Truly we can count on God Who loved us so much He came to us and faced the worst pain and then redeemed it as the means to bring us to life. That is Good News!
A point for further discussion that would be beyond the scope of this homily is how much exposure to give ourselves. If we're afraid of something, it might not be helpful to start out full force, like Christ facing the worst of human suffering. Since I'm not an expert, I'll leave it to them to offer their insights.
For starters: askbthe Lordvfor guidsnce, then proceed always with humility. Nobody will defeat that!
I just adore and look forward to your Sunday Sermon. We get so distracted during the homilies at church with noises and parish announcements prior to the homily that totally distracts us from the word of God. Thank you once again Bishop Barron - I fight with my fears everyday and ask God and St. Michael to defend us from all evil.
Thank you Lord and Bishop Barron as a 27 year old young man. The Lord is teaching me this lesson after a upbringing of trauma. The Lord provides. I need to be strong and courageous as His Word says.
God is good.
Thanks for sharing this. It's something that I needed as I'm starting my retirement process, moving from a small village to the city because of the lack of housing so that my developmentally disabled sister & her son can come to live with me.
I appreciate you being here !
My interlude ,my wonderful weekly interlude. Thank you.
Nothing can separate us from the love of God. Absolutely beautiful.
Fear can be so debilitating. Thanks be to God that he is always with us. We aren’t our fears; we are God’s children.
So beautiful and helpful. God bless you Bishop Barron...isabella..🙏
And bless you too❤🙏
This is one of the best homilies I have ever heard.
All of his homilies and lectures the best
Excellent as always
today is my day one again , walk with us Lord
As always, great respect to you Bishop Barron. Physical and psychological suffering/pain is very hard to overcome. But I believe, my faith is strong and the only thing I can do is persevere. I will NOT give up! 🙏📿🙏
The full richness of God's word presented with such simplicity and contemporariness! Thank you Bishop Baron for sharing your gift with the world.
The Holy Spirit who dwells in the Catholic Church since XXXIIIAD at work!! MMXXIV AD!!!
Thank you, Lord Jesus Christ, king of endless glory!!!
Amen
God gives the Holy Spirit to everyone who confesses their sins to Him through & in Jesus Christ and is born again!
@lidaskissners1017 Nope!!! Sorry, you are completely wrong!!!! It is easy to prove it!!!
@@davido3026 please do :))
@davido3026 please read John 14; 16+17! "And I (Jesus) will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever- 17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you".
Jesus himself said so! I believe Him!🙏
@lidaskissners1017
The Lord Jesus was addressing his 12 Apostles . They received him on resurrection Sunday and was again confirmed on Pentecost day when Peter addressed the jews on Pentecost day 33AD!!
He confirmed Peter's decision on electing a new Apostle!!
The Holy Spirit dwells in the Catholic church ever since!!
Do not twist the word!!
This is so Good! Thank You Bishop Barron! Alberta Canada 🇨🇦 ♥️
Thank you Bishop for this wonderful insight of facing up to our fears and finding there healing and redemption.
We are utterly blessed to have Bishop Barron. Thank you Jesus for him. This message and wisdom is invaluable today.

Thank you for encouraging a explorative journey into scripture. Thank you for your witness, thank you for feeding your flock
God bless you and thank you for your message today
Such powerful images! And much to reflect on.
今天（2024.09.14）的读经申21:4-9，婓2:6-11，若3:13-17，我既然听到Barron神父的讲道（是第一次听）跟今天的读经是相符的，讲道主题也是我在找的😊……不是偶然，是圣神的引领，感谢天主🙏🏻谢谢Barron神父🙏🏻
Thank you, Bishop Barron. As always, it is as if you come personally into my house and speak directly and... relevant. A week of spiritual doubt, I think your sermon offered a companion, not to dissolve the doubt, but sit with me as I struggle with it. Be well, please. Blessings.
Perfect timing. Thank you ❤
Thank You, Bishop Barron for the sermon that touched my Soul. I feel as though God brought me to hear this very specific sermon with John 3:16 being one of my favorite scriptures. I'm going through everything you shared about Fear. Thank you for teaching me how to change my thinking. I feel inspired.✝✝✝
What a wonderful teaching. Thank you Bishop Barron
May God bless you Bishop Barron.
Amen
From the first time I was sent an email of one of your sermons from a friend, it has now become beautiful and inspiring messages to me from GOD via you Bishop Barron. I thank you for restoring my faith in your exp,anations and advice, thank you and GOD bless you always 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Believer in visual healings... carry The Rosary with you at all times..The Blessed Virgin Mary knows your fears before you know it... She's your best ally to conquer your fears..God bless Word on Fire cast and crew
Wonderful, Bishop. Thank you. That was an absolute banger, and a much-needed and timely reminder.
Such an impactful sermon for me. Thank you Bishop Barron!
How relevant at this very time when we are ask on a hourly basis to be afraid of this that and the other bogeyman. God bless you Bishop Barron 🙏
I love listening to these, but this one in particular just drew me to tears. Somehow what I needed to hear. Thank you. Thank you times a million
All Bishop Barron's sermons are meaningful, but this one was among his most powerful.
I will now revisit the scene in "The Chosen" when Nicodemus has his clandestine meeting with Jesus on the rooftop. We, believers, must enjoy His Kingdom on Earth, but the anticipation of His full embrace in Paradise makes me restless for the fruition of our faith journey.
I just saw "Cabrini. She believed that facing fears and a little bit of love can change the world. ❤
Lord God, thank you for this Bishop Robert. I slowly understand the biblical readings and the gospel better. And above all my useless imaginary fears devoid of grace that sets me apart farther from Christ.
This sermon is one of the deepest I've heard. Well done Bishop Barron!
Thank you so very much for this wonderful homily!! This one touches my heart!!! God Bless you Bishop Barron , you are a true gift to humanity!!! 🙏
