@john fisher 'The Church owns the planet, and what has God done for us lately?' It's going to be your last supper if you don't say grace with the rest of us.
@john fisher im pretty sure jeff bazos is richer....but i wish Church is faaar more richer, so she can take care for poor people even more...Catholic Church is the biggest charitable institution in the world, are you even aware of that fact?! you should learn something more about real John Fisher btw
@john fisher I'm Canadian, although i've been in American dominated net-space for so long you might not be making much of a mistake. I don't think it's an established fact that the Catholic Church is the richest organization on the planet, and arguing that the videos should be free... what am i to do with you? They _are_ free. I feel like i traded rightwing 'raid the fed' for leftwing 'raid the vatican'. All _WE_ do nowadays is evangelize our political compass to others, and then espouse ingroup rhetoric until a protective bubble forms. _This_ is the dominant meta-reality. I was just calling you an ungrateful bastard. 'You're not my real dad' is an understandable retort, given this. _My_ reality is that i'm about twice the age of everyone here. I should get credits for reverse engineering 2nd hand info back to these people's teachers. Redistribution good, centralized authority bad. Okay. I have three nails and a hammer. Back up on the cross with you. I won't have you badmouthing the pharisees any longer. Here's how redistribution works: People have problems. People lament lack of euros. People protest until they get euros. Then people offer said euros to the people that gave them the euros, because the people with euros, and the problem solvers, are the same people. Prayer cuts out the middleman. With no one else, other than God, present, we beg the one and only, and ask him to save.
@john fisher It is generous that this is offered for free. This video was not free to produce. There is the cost of travel, to feed and house the support crew during filming, to buy and rent the equipment to shoot the video and post-processing, to pay the salaries of the crew, etc. None of that came for free. Presumably, the Bishop is the only person who wasn't paid for his time, but he still had to travel and eat. I presume that it was funded by the donors of Word on Fire Ministries and (this is important) the proceeds from previous customers.
Bishop Barron, your scholarly presentation of the life and works of Saint John Henry Newman is not only stimulatingly educative, but also, timingly reflective for Catholics. Both on the pivotal role of J.H.Newman's in the life of the church and his poignant conversion story. Great job & God bless.
Bishop Barron, i've got into Newman because of you. After reading Apologia pro Vita Sua and his Essay on the Development of Christian Doctrine, it was a joy to hear of his canonization. Thank you for introducing me to this author and for this great video. God bless you!
Thanks for your interesting & engaging videos. We hear about people falling down the rabbit hole & being radicalized due to the algorithms of RUclips. I began binge-watching Bishop Barron & Fulton Sheen,. At first, it was as a skeptical atheist. I attended mass for the first time on Sunday & began RCIA. A RUclips convert? Stranger things have happened. One small thing. The Mississippi doesn't empty into the Pacific at New Orleans. That is the Gulf of Mexico in the Atlantic.
Thats really cool to hear, I work nights and come home and watch these videos. Bishop Barron is top shelf. I hope he releases more of these type of video. The people like us on this wild web are the ones that need to hear it most
What a great documentary, to be honest I knew very little about John Henry Newman much less how brilliant this man was...thank you Bishop Barron, you are a beacon of light
Dear Bishop Barron, thank you so much for putting this video on RUclips. I have, already, purchased the Pivotal Players series via amazon. As a Catholic and a Birmingham lad I am very excited for Blessed John Henry Newman’s canonisation this coming Sunday. God bless you Bishop Barron. You are and continue to be a huge inspiration to me. Cardinal Henry Newman, Pray for us. Amen 🙏
Happy new Feast of St. John Henry Newman!! As a convert from Protestantism, St John Henry Newman was incredibly influential to me. This is a fantastic production. Thank you for this, Bishop Barron.
Thank you, Bishop and all at WOF ministries- this is beyond timely for me- just the encouragement i need to continue on the path to the Catholic faith despite the massive obstacles in my way. God bless you all.
Thank you for sharing this, i pray for unity and clarity among all the sons and daughters of holy mother church. Best regards from the mountains of south america, may god help my country in this decades long war against marxist terrorist armed groups.
Thank you for gifting us with this free episode of St. John Henry Newman. Now I want to discover more about him. - A Saint for the Church and the World in this time and space. God continue to bless your online ministry too.
Our Jesus and Mary, teach us: Faith, Hope and Love. Ps 86:15, Lk 11:2 “Make knowledge of the Scripture your love ... Live with them, meditate on them, make them the sole object of your knowledge and inquiries.” 😇 St Jerome please pray with us
The Church, Jesús Christ has ever to many details with every one of us! Amazing how much God love us in all time is hearing us with his all creation. Thank you to God for all Saints 😇😇😇
Graduate of Newman University (Wichita, KS) here. I'm so excited that Cardinal Newman is going to be canonized. I hope many will see this Pivotal Players release.
The continued evolution of ideas is so liberating.Thank you Bishop Barron for your beautiful work. Your videos have deeply enriched my faith which I will admit was floundering. Thank you for being a living voice for Catholics and all Christians.
Thank you Bishop Barron for releasing this free beautiful episode on St. Cardinal John Henry Newman. After such a great introduction to him, I am less intimidated to approach reading his works. God Bless you and your crew for giving us this gift.
A wonderful video of a man who loved Christ and his Church...both mattered and he weighed everything on it because it was worth it. I will watch this a time or two more.
Great video.Hopefully Blessed John Henry Newman can teach us present faithful Catholics to accept change.The faithful are called to convert everyday. Change is hard. Newman's acceptance of the principle for growth and change is one that endures throughout his entire religious life which this video shortly touches on at the 35 minute mark. This principle finds expressions in Newman's theory on the development of doctrine. Newman expresses the principle this way, to live is to change and to be perfect is to have changed often. Newman applied this to his own life that enabled him to accept that Rome was the One True Church because she had within herself an inner power of development and growth which is the only evidence of life.
Am I cynical to think that the timing in conjunction with the Amazon synod is somewhat fortuitous? Is this a wholesale effort to prepare the Church for some big change Pope F wants to spring on us?
I remember going through basic training and going to Mass every Sunday and before mass they’d always played Word on Fire videos with Bishop Barron and they were great! I always looked forward to Sunday’s
Godbless you father Bishop Robert Barron, and your generosity!! May you continue this work and prosper forever. I hope to meet you one day and get to know you better. Please keep me in your prayers.
Oh my! There is our ST. JOHN NEUMANN, ordained in 1836, in New York, New York, USA. ST JOHN NEUMANN was a student in Bohemia who longed to be a foreign missionary in the United States. And here we hve a new ST JOHN NEWMAN?? What a wonderful thing is this? The ST JOHN NEUMANN I know, is an EXTREMELY POWERFUL SAINT, kind and gentle. ST JOHN NEUMANN ALways gets me to pray when I don't listen to the other Saints who tell me the same thing. ST JOHN NEUMANN has removed the anguish and angst from within me. There are no longer any anxieties within me.(there should be 1,000,000 exclamation points behind that statement). ST JOHN NEUMANN has taken sorrow and sadness out of my being. He has healed deep scars. ST JOHN NEUMANN is our most beloved Saint. His presence is always with me, as ST JOHN NEUMANN will make his presence known to you, if only you pray to him in Jesus' name (and through His most Sacred Heart and through The Immaculate Heart of our most beloved mother, The Blessed Virgin Mary). ST JOHN NEUMANN will be with you, he will make his presence in your life known to you. How could anyone not want to know their Saint is with them all the time?? Please pray to ST JOHN NEUMANN. And of course, pray to our new, ST JOHN NEWMAN! God bless you
He is the patron of the collage attached to the seminary that I go to. Today we had a celebration in anticipation of his canonization. We have a first class relic of his hair in the collage Chapel now. Please pray for Newman Theological Collage in Edmonton Alberta. Blessed Cardinal Newman, pray for us.
@Tom Jenkins "I'm going to church" does not equate to I am going to Mass. As a Church in this context is a building what you do in said building (while in a Catholic Context would be associated usually to Mass) is not answered. You can as a Catholic (and often if you are not) go to confession, get a book, talk to the Priest, Say a Rosary or seek Asylum. All of the actions are not the "Mass" so saying "I'm going to church" does not really help to ascertain what (in this case) Tess Chavit was doing. You might say "I am going to Mass does not mean that it would be in a Church" and this is correct but in the above comment (Tess') she says "I attended this evening mass here in Brompton Oratory, London." In this she gave the location and the action as well as the general time period meeting all the requirements for knowing what took place (approximately). This is why? ("goof balls"?)
@Tom Jenkins What are you on about I typed up the problems with not stating "Mass" instead of "going to church". Calling me a Religious KOOK does not help.
Thank you for posting this free video. I am troubled by John Henry Newman's life's work as you say of "finding a middle way between Prostestantism and Catholicsm". This contributed to the spirit of Vatican II which essentially denuded the Catholic Mystical experience of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, changing it from the High Alter, the priest Ad Orientum, Gregorian chant or sacred organ music to the felt banners, table instead of alter, and guitar playing pop/folk songs. A very Protestant experience rather than a very Catholic experience. I know because I was brought up in the Latin Mass with an organist in the Choir Loft up until age 17. When the church radically shifted, I left, looking for something more profound. Fortunately I came back and currently attend a Novus Ordo parish where, praise God we have a very devout and holy priest who has made changes already in his short term of four months, returning our Mass to a much more Sacred experience of devotion. He is a younger priest and like many of the younger priests, he wants to return much of what was lost since Vatican II.
Your parish sounds a lot like mine. A new younger priest was assigned eight years ago. He always says Mass Ad Orientem and in Latin at least once a week. No more altar girls, and he brought communion rails back. Several girls and women wear mantillas. People are coming from out of town, even across the state line (an hour's drive).
JHN was correct that Subjectivism and sentimentalism (ie: Liberalism) are threatening classical Christianity (specifically Catholicism) from within. It is now worse than ever. St. John Henry Newman, pray for the Church.
Perhaps the foremost voice of the nineteenth century against modernism. How apropos his canonization on the coming weekend; how fitting this following the pagan desecrations of the weekend previous to it. We need Newman and Chesterton so very much.
I think some of the terms enjoyed by Bishop Barron might only be of comprehension to a level beyond ordinary education. For me personally I love that he uses language at this level I would certainly appreciate more of this presentation style to uncover St. Augustine and John Henry Newman. Although Dr. Gregory Sadler's RUclips is outputting short St. Augustine concept lectures this season.
Thank you Bishop Barron for this. I have heard Newman already before, but only read a few fragment of his massive works. In any case, I was just amused the way you carry yourself as the interviewer (Is it Brandon?) was asking you questions. You were like a little kid when asked questions with their usual innocence.
Please think about attending, if you are in New York City on November 9, 2019, a dramatic reading of a play based upon John Henry Newman's last homily to his Oxford companions, "A Parting of Friends", details for which can be found on 'Alderton House' website under events. God bless you.
"Here behind me preached Newman one of the greatest preachers in the two thousand years of Christianity, during his Anglican years." I paraphrase but that was high and accurate praise. His deep faith as you know Your Grace was born and nurtured at Oxford among the "Oxford Movement" Anglicans with names like Keble and Pusey unknown to your RC readers but not to the Bishop or me.. His last sermon before leaving was called "The parting of Friends" or close to that. It is said his congregation wept, such was the emotion. Half of his long life as an important Anglican academic, writer and curate shaped his great love of God. The poem/hymn "Lead Kindly Light" still sung in both our churches was written while an Anglican. He took a lot of heat for his conversion from the English establishment of his day and if truth be told there were a few Catholics both in Rome and in England who always viewed him with the deepest suspicion as an Anglican infiltrator. His welcome in your tradition was not completely warm and fuzzy even if he was considered a great prize in what was then a hostile atmosphere between churches.. Now we 'd like to think that (except for internet comment streams of negativity and rabid sectarianism/triumphalism) such ugliness is behind us and it is. As you were there you know the mass was attended with great affection and respect on all sides with HRH the Prince of Wales delivering a very flattering essay about Newman and a large delegation of Anglican prelates from across the world in attendance and greeted warmly by His Holiness .Newman is on the liturgical Kal. of the C of E. and other English speaking Anglican churches. The saddest part of internet comment threads like this one is both the historical ignorance about Newman and his writings, and the constant need to pick out enemies and engage in rank tribalism. Our churches get along with great warmth, and you folks are troubled by that??
Brilliantly put John, but as a cradle Catholic may I take issue with you. Everything you said about stepping forward together is wonderful. Prince Charles' gracious and well considered words were perfectly expressed. Please don't take internet ranting as indicating in any way the true state of Christian dialogue. I would say I thought the great majority of comments here are well expressed and sincere and indicate a genuine desire for Christian fellowship.
@@Denis-tg6jw Thank you for a thoughtful comment and in general I agree. Perhaps I should have said I was speaking more in despair over the general tone of the internet instead of a specific comment thread or this particular YT channel or project of the Bishop. Even if we dismiss some comments elsewhere (not this thread) as the stuff of make-believe Christians ,i.e., fake Roman Catholic or Anglican or Protestant or whatever posted to inflame or incite, enough of it comes from actual believers to disappoint any charitable follower of the Christ. That said, the good news is that, as you say, away from this medium and in the real world people are working together in fraternal respectful ways. We Christians of this troubled world are all better for that.
A lot of the cavils among Christians in Newman's day seem anachronistic, but your discussion of his work on assent shows it to be as timely today as the entire core of the Christian message remains timely. I look forward to reading Ker's biography.
For people wanting to enter Newman's thought, I'd recommend his autobiographically-inspired novel Loss and Gain (1848). It tells the story of Newman's own internal development in a fictionalized way, with a young university student as the protagonist. It's a novel of ideas, beautifully written, with some satirical wit, and more accessible to the general reader than Apologia Pro Vita Sua.
Just wow Bishop Barron, I was not expecting you to just release an entire episode like this for free. God bless your generosity.
@john fisher 'The Church owns the planet, and what has God done for us lately?'

I attended this evening mass here in Brompton Oratory, London. After the Benediction the priests blessed the leric of Cardinal Henry Newman
Relic?
I would love to go to the Oratories but time.
@Tom Jenkins What is wrong with the word "Mass"?
@Tom Jenkins "I'm going to church" does not equate to I am going to Mass. As a Church in this context is a building what you do in said building (while in a Catholic Context would be associated usually to Mass) is not answered. You can as a Catholic (and often if you are not) go to confession, get a book, talk to the Priest, Say a Rosary or seek Asylum.

In any case, I was just amused the way you carry yourself as the interviewer (Is it Brandon?) was asking you questions. You were like a little kid when asked questions with their usual innocence.
Beautiful presentation.
Please think about attending, if you are in New York City on November 9, 2019, a dramatic reading of a play based upon John Henry Newman's last homily to his Oxford companions, "A Parting of Friends", details for which can be found on 'Alderton House' website under events. God bless you.
"Here behind me preached Newman one of the greatest preachers in the two thousand years of Christianity, during his Anglican years." I paraphrase but that was high and accurate praise. His deep faith as you know Your Grace was born and nurtured at Oxford among the "Oxford Movement" Anglicans with names like Keble and Pusey unknown to your RC readers but not to the Bishop or me.. His last sermon before leaving was called "The parting of Friends" or close to that. It is said his congregation wept, such was the emotion. Half of his long life as an important Anglican academic, writer and curate shaped his great love of God. The poem/hymn "Lead Kindly Light" still sung in both our churches was written while an Anglican.
He took a lot of heat for his conversion from the English establishment of his day and if truth be told there were a few Catholics both in Rome and in England who always viewed him with the deepest suspicion as an Anglican infiltrator. His welcome in your tradition was not completely warm and fuzzy even if he was considered a great prize in what was then a hostile atmosphere between churches..
Now we 'd like to think that (except for internet comment streams of negativity and rabid sectarianism/triumphalism) such ugliness is behind us and it is. As you were there you know the mass was attended with great affection and respect on all sides with HRH the Prince of Wales delivering a very flattering essay about Newman and a large delegation of Anglican prelates from across the world in attendance and greeted warmly by His Holiness .Newman is on the liturgical Kal. of the C of E. and other English speaking Anglican churches. The saddest part of internet comment threads like this one is both the historical ignorance about Newman and his writings, and the constant need to pick out enemies and engage in rank tribalism. Our churches get along with great warmth, and you folks are troubled by that??
Brilliantly put John, but as a cradle Catholic may I take issue with you. Everything you said about stepping forward together is wonderful. Prince Charles' gracious and well considered words were perfectly expressed. Please don't take internet ranting as indicating in any way the true state of Christian dialogue. I would say I thought the great majority of comments here are well expressed and sincere and indicate a genuine desire for Christian fellowship.
@@Denis-tg6jw Thank you for a thoughtful comment and in general I agree. Perhaps I should have said I was speaking more in despair over the general tone of the internet instead of a specific comment thread or this particular YT channel or project of the Bishop. Even if we dismiss some comments elsewhere (not this thread) as the stuff of make-believe Christians ,i.e., fake Roman Catholic or Anglican or Protestant or whatever posted to inflame or incite, enough of it comes from actual believers to disappoint any charitable follower of the Christ. That said, the good news is that, as you say, away from this medium and in the real world people are working together in fraternal respectful ways. We Christians of this troubled world are all better for that.
Wonderful and beautiful film.
Dope! Thanks for the high quality production!
Thank you Bishop Barron for this brilliant video God Bless you and all involved in the making of all these videos 😇😇🙏🙏🙏
And now, St. John Henry Newman.
Great. Thanks.
My gratitude 🙏
A lot of the cavils among Christians in Newman's day seem anachronistic, but your discussion of his work on assent shows it to be as timely today as the entire core of the Christian message remains timely. I look forward to reading Ker's biography.
A wonderful video.
Thank you!
This is great!
Gorgeous! Thanks so much :)
He references Juno 💖💖 I love it
For people wanting to enter Newman's thought, I'd recommend his autobiographically-inspired novel Loss and Gain (1848). It tells the story of Newman's own internal development in a fictionalized way, with a young university student as the protagonist. It's a novel of ideas, beautifully written, with some satirical wit, and more accessible to the general reader than Apologia Pro Vita Sua.
Thank you.
Thank you father Barrón! Can you release the Spanish version too? More apologetic material is needed in Spanish
Great video! Thank you 🙏🏻
