Yes, intellectual strong -suit, I find myself researching literature on Aquinas, Pitre, Gallagher, CS Lewis etc. Thank you
Bishop Barron a legend
It’s all God’s work. We just answer the call.
I think the parish can do a lot to help a priest not feel lonely by inviting him to dinner or family celebrations. Treating him to coffee or lunch. For our priest, because of Covid, we had a big drive-by birthday party in the parking lot and showered him with gifts and cards to show how much we appreciate him and what he is doing for us during the pandemic. I know it's not quite the same as fraternity with other priests, but I think we need to make our parish priests feel loved and appreciated.
Bishop Barron's familial manner puts these questions in perspective, the conversation style is congenial, concise and practical. His Excellency's informality in the discussion is so likable. It's as if one is present at a small gathering of Catholic priests watching this and listening to the podcast a few days before. At ease with almost any subject, his approach seems unguarded, a disarming presence, gives the impression of being invitingly approachable like being among friends.
Fantastic! Great video
I'm grateful for Bishop Barron. I help to pray for priests and seminarians. The Seven Sisters also pray for husbands as priests of the domestic household, if they are married. Some of the women are married to Deacons and teachers of the Faith.
when is Bishop Barron going on The Crunch ???
search the gnosis of karol wojtyla
I think Bishop Barron is wonderful. He really speaks in a manner Catholics can understand and relate to. I’ve been following him for 10 years and his videos have really enlightened me.
Am I the only one who feels like a student who accidently listened in on the teachers talking, when listening to this video?
Your program, Word on Fire, sounds very good, and really, most necessary. One of my arguments with the church is that it had forgotten how to go out to the world. In point, the church has discouraged lay involvement as a “professional” approach by priests, brothers and sisters could be the only ones trusted to carry our that calling of the church. The church has done a very minimal and piss poor job instructing its faithful in many aspects of the faith let alone to be evangelical. My problem with your program, or almost any church program, is that I can not economically afford it. I know it cost to set up and operate any program, Enough said. I am a sinner, god help me.
The seminary model gained much prominence in Europe after Trent…of course we still have the Monastic tradition…In Ireland, Maynooth was and still is prominent…
Thanks for this. When is part 2 coming out?
Thnx Bshp Barron.
Interesting how Bishop Barron goes on about his Catholic faith but forgets to discuss the "Fall of the American Empire." As the COVID-19 progresses in the USA it is obvious that Satan has a "stranglehold" on the USA. But the majority of Americans and Bishop Barron are so blind to NOT see the USA fall from Grace. GOD HELP THE SOULS OF ALL AMERICAN CITIZENS!
oh my goodness, i grw up the back of the yards neighborhood. went to st mary immeculate on 45th and ashland.
Excellent interviewer……whoever he is?
The seminary life I have known: A greenhouse where souls and spirits were in some way fertilized to think in a pre-formatted way with a high level of suspicion for our bodies while, at the same time, an intellectual development opportunity to be envied by many universities. From age 13 on, meals in silence, monthly retreats, mandatory sports, study, prayer and, yes, a heart full support from noble and generous men of prayer of awesome intellect. A love-hate relationship for me, a precious heritage and, at the same time, a running commentary that if you did not become a priest, you risked eternal failure. To pursue your metaphor of « seeds being planted and cultivated », I felt more like a bonsai tree than a oak tree allowed to grow as the oak tree that it is.
Levis Shalom
Bishop Barron, could you do some videos on adult formation?
I think God is calling me for rest. Awesome BISHOP, THANK YOU!
love Fr. Altman's 14 Sept 2020 interview with Alpha News. we LOVE you! https://youtu.be/KMP1wQmetF8
is happiness the presence of something or the absence of trial?
Always makes it easier for the newer generation to understand.
Hello father..! if you are the chosen one. do you really need to do something?
If they didn’t get paid, there wouldn’t be a tenth of the priests there are in the world.
(I only say this to convey that doesn’t matter if they were “called by God”. If there’s no money in the game, there’s no players.
Your atheist playlist allowed me to believe. I wanted to but didn’t think I’d be able to. You made it make sense. I’m taking catechism classes now ❤️
Any negative comments have been removed haven't they?
Priests I have known – all remarkable and guiding lights. Each different but no doubt – clearly called. Thank you , thanks be to God . Heart of God
Thank you so,much
This is a really well structured podcast. Bishop Barron getting to answer questions in his long well thought out way is very well done.
Bishops… Bishops…. Bishops…. Bishops ……there are no Cardinals!
THE CHURCH WAS CREADED ONCE AND FOR ALL THE DAY OF PENTECOST WITH 85 HOLY APOSTOLIC CANONS (RULES) THAT INCLUDED THE WILL OF GOD FOR THE SALVATION OF MAN
http://www.holytrinitymission.org/books/english/cannons_apostles_rudder.htm
1st canon 1. A Bishop must be ordained by two or three other Bishops. The word Bishop primarily and properly is applied, in the divine and holy Scriptures, to God, who supervises and oversees all things in the universe
2nd canon 2. A Presbyter must be ordained by a single Bishop, and so must a Deacon and other Clergymen.
3rd Canon How to prepare Holy Communion .
THE APOSTLES WERE RAISED TO HEAVENLY MYSTICS (PRIESTS) FOR THE SALVATION OF MAN

God bless
How about the bishop writing a commentary on Luke and Acts in line with his focal interest in evangelization of culture and by going back to Jesus himself and the early church.
Who wants Bishop Barron to sit down with Bill Maher? I sense from Bill Maher a longing to know, a yearning . I see a highly sensitive side to him , a sadness if you will.
Priesthood is the world's second oldest profession.
