This is one I needed to hear. I roll my eyes sometimes when religious talk about God loving us. My reply is, "How do you know?" It is difficult to go on hearsay when you need to hear it from the lover's lips. I sometimes wonder if there is limited real estate in Heaven. Why else would it be so damn hard to get there. So much testing, doubt, blind faith, and suffering you have to agree to.

He looks so different today!

The greatest conclusion and ending question to any talk i have heard by man-human.

The good Lord has brought me and my husband a same sex attracted neighbor. By providence I have been cooking him dinner once a week and showing him Christs love. I don’t know if he knows if I am a Catholic but I pray for him as I make the food. We never know how our Lord is using us to reach the suffering. May the good Lord be with you all ❤.

I hope they didn’t get married 😃

Amen

I so needed to hear this. Thank you so much, Fr. Mike ❤

Say what? More confused than ever after listening to this. Since God made human beings and knows all too well how we communicate and listen, why can't he have a conversation with us just like human to human?. That's the question father Mike needs to answer.

“Sometimes the only answer is tears.“ 🩵

God Bless this Wonderful and Amazing Priest!!! He is Our New Parish Priest .... And as much as I hope and Pray we could Keep him ForEVER .... his words need to be heard by the Masses.... he's on Fire for the Lord !! He's an Inspiration to all who are within earshot ! Love you Father Joe❤🙏🏼✝️🌸🌷🐰🐣🌼

Amen

🕍🛐💝🌹💞🙏🙏🙏😇🕯️🕊️

He's freaking me out.

That guy is a clown and a joke.

I think Mike skipped over complexity (aka chaos) theory in his discussion of "Everything was pre-programmed at the Big Bang". Or maybe he thinks "God created complexity theory"? Keep moving the goalposts on physics to "God did it", like has been done by certain believers for 500 years?

Excellent!!!❤

god is not real it's just stories people made up through out the century

It astounds me that Mike can't understand why exactly his brother didn't feel like he could tell him about his sexuality. No, Mike didn't preach about how gays should be bullied or stoned to death. But he also didn't preach that gays should be loved and treated the same way we treat heterosexuals. He didn't preach that gays should allowed to love their partner the same way straight people love their partner. No, because even so-called "good" pastors like Mike at the end of the day still feel a sense of disgust and aversion when thinking about two men or two women making love the same way that a man and a woman do, all because the possibility of creating a child isn't there. Cuz you know, you having or not having children is apparently Mike and god's business. To Mike, having children isn't seen as a personal choice that we all have the freedom to make for ourselves. No, because having sex can lead to reproduction, you can only have sex if you are at the very least open to the possibility of reproduction happening. Guess what Mike? Sometimes when women walk around (especially in cities), they get attacked and/or raped by someone. Do you take that to mean that if a woman decided to go walk outside, she must be open to the possibility of that happening? And what exactly does that mean? Does that mean that if she starts to get attacked and/or raped, she must just submit to the attacker and not even try to fight back? See, this is what happens when you apply your logic to other scenarios where I think it's safe to say you suddenly wouldn't argue that we should have to be ok with something just because it's a possibility. There are lots of things that are always possibilities of happening. Anyone could walk into my house at any time and try to rob or murder me. But does that mean that if someone does try to do those things, I should just have to accept it and let it happen? Of course not. That would be a ridiculous thing for anyone to even try to argue. Similarly, just because reproduction is something that can happen as a result of sex, doesn't mean it will happen, and it also doesn't mean that if it does happen, the couple affected must make their peace with it. We should be allowed to decide for ourselves whether we want to bring a life into this world. It's that simple.

I'm Ethel, and I'd be very happy to buy you a Bible and a rosary too.

Sister, this is the first time I have listened to you. When you sat down with your “Security Blanket” I could help but notice that you continuously kept rearranging your grip upon the blanket. As if it might escape from you. Oh Sister Merriam, I can’t imagine being given up for adoption by both of my parents. Your twisting and turning upon the blanket corners made me think about my own life. I was the 8th of 12 children and catechized by both of my parents than my school. And yet; in an apparent perfect world, I too am like you. I hope you realize that what happened to you; the loss of your parents and the adoption of new ones, never lets you forget that this was God’s plan for you. What happened before your conception and what happened after your birth was all part of God’s plan for you. I know this because I have lived long enough to be your father. Thank you for saying yes, just like Our Holy Mother, to the Will of Almighty God. Can I have your blanket?

Goodness Father Mike have you been fertilizing the Gods seed inside of my heart and I have felt my heart become so full and yearning to be closer to God then I ever felt possible! I’m converting to the Catholic faith and I just want to say thank you for your dedication and commitment to preaching Gods Word!

Praying to the Blessed Virgin and her holy Son to keep Fr. Mike healthy and to guard his heart in purity and zeal for you.

The Typical Teenager! The Lord was a typical know it all Teenager running off from His parents and showing off His wisdom among the elders! Of Course He did know IT ALL!!!! When His Parents found Him knowing He is the Messiah reminded Him He must wait for, “I AM the Voice (Word) Crying (because He would be rejected) in the wilderness!” The reason for 18 years of silence! So when we see teenagers they are made in His Holy Image and Likeness!!!!!!!!!

God bless you Father

Sorry Fr.Mike I may love you, but I hate that song. That should be penance.

Very inspiring! Love and prayers 💖🙏

This video needs to be more popular. Father Mike absolutely nailed this one. Im proud of all the other Catholics strengthening their argument for their faith. In my opinion belief should be based on a combination of scripture and logic.

Thank you again, Fr. Mike. You have been such a blessing in my life.

JESUS DEFINE ME

Fr Mike. You're truly a living inspiration to the world. I am learning so much from you. My friend in California, Johnathan Lumamba and his wife Erica met you in March 2017. His instagram pic with you, shows that it possibly was taken in St Martha Catholic Church. I hope to be able to share with you and your Mom a highly recognised health solution available for the last 63 years or so, worldwide. Keep on, keep on doing what you do🙏🙏🙏☺️

Not many of the KZbin videos make me cry but this one did. I love you too Jesus.

Amen Thank you God bless ✝️❤️

I love listening to you. Your faith is so touching. You are a beautiful person. Thank you. Daniel

Thankyou Lord for the amazing gift of Fr.Mike...Fr.Mike for your time..thankyou.

Um....no....Batman could not beat Superman...no matter how much he trained...

The trsnsparency was so raw 17:47. I love the way this nun brings truth and comedy and love

Oh father Mike, what a gift! I happen to be watching this a day after my dad‘s 10th anniversary of his passing. My sister-in-law/best friend. Yes, I’ve talked about her a lot had a surprise for me on Sunday. When dad died although I was the closest to him I was not in a good place with the rest of my family. Things have changed and are much better now. But he had the time of his memorial and his funeral, which had to be done very specially because he was a fire chief and his men loved him. I was not allowed in any of the preparation my sister-in-law and my brother was still living, then watched as I sat by myself, looking at dad I couldn’t move a muscle. She wanted to come up and sit with me, but my brother wouldn’t let her. I was devastated crushed heartbroken. I was the oldest I was his daughter. He went the extra mile for me so many times. If at the time women could’ve been firefighters, I would’ve been one. So on Sunday, which was priesthood Sunday and we had a high mass, the choir, Father Brian, my favorite priest, saying mass. The homily was killer. I loved it. I laughed we were supposed to. But you know the part where you petition your prayers, and I am standing up course and the last prayer offered , Father Brian offered. And I thought I heard him say this mass, which is celebrated for Lawrence.M Walsh, and it was just that extra half seconds for it to process in my head that he was saying my dad‘s name. I didn’t know how he could know and I started crying and I turned Julie and she handed me the mass cards while she put her arms around me. And she said she’ll tell me about it after mass, so what I went up to receive I had half of my face in the middle of my face from crying and I was in father’s line he took a look, but he kind of knows me by now, so he knows it my face could be in the middle of my face for any number of reasons and soon mass was over. I said to Julie I need to talk to father I want to thank him well Julie knowing my ability to blubber pretty well. I was about a half a step ahead of me and she was the one that told him that it was dad and thank you for taking the time to do it. He looked at me and said he’s your dad and I said yes and I can’t thank you enough you have no idea what this means to me and he told me he was honored to do it, and I knew he was. He had my hand the whole time, but as he was telling me, he was honored to do it. He was holding my hand so tight. And we finished our private time with him and walk to the car and we got in the car and took off our veils and I took a look at myself in the mirror, and was like oh I look terrible, but it didn’t matter and he didn’t care I was there and that was the most important thing. And Julie said to me I did this for you. I have watched you suffer through every anniversary knowing that they didn’t let you do anything to help and how brokenhearted you were. So this is for you. This is your peace. Truly one of the nicest kindest things that anyone has ever done for me. Now I realize that your ministry is not generally to 66-year-old women tend to deal with a younger group, that doesn’t make the words you say, any less important when I listen to them. I do not go through the motions. I am there because I want to be. Some of those young people that they panned to in the audience have no idea what lies ahead for them. How much good will be in their lives, and how much sorrow will be in their lives. It is my hope that you drove your message home and that each one of them will show up and not just go through the motions.

I just listened to this because my daughter is planning to marry a non-Catholic. She is strongly considering marrying in his Protestant church. She is discussing things with HIS parents. I keep asking her, they need to come over so WE can discuss a plan. I plan to ask her (he might also) to watch this video and a few more I think are relevant. Thank you for taking the time to make these video which are so important to explain beliefs of the Catholic church. God has given you a great gift! So proud that you are not wasting it!!

Thank you

Amazing and always relevant talk Sister Miriam. You’re the best. I’d love it if someone gave me a spider so feel free. 😉🕷️💕

Amen- can change with one decision

No reason to write a book! The bottom line is same sex-sex & attraction. God created man & a woman for procreation & love. Yes GOD LOVES ALL OF US! IT IS THE SIN. HE DOES NOT LIKE. SO YOU HAVE TO PRACTICE ABSTINENCE IF YOU HAVE SAME SEX ATTRACTION. IF YOU'RE HETEROSEXUAL YOU HAVE TO PRACTICE ABSTINCE BEFORE YOU GET MARRIED! AN ADULTERY YOU HAVE TO REPENT! YOU DONT HAVE TO GIVE ALL THIS EXPLANATION. GOD LOVES EVERYONE BUT YOU HAVE TO REPENT FROM YOUR SEXUAL SINS & ABSTAIN!!!! BUT I GUESS. With young people. You're scared if you come on strong about homosexuality. They might commit suicide! You're pussyfooting the truth! around God did not create ADAM & STEVE!

You are so close to Jesus Christ

Thank you

😮 wish i'd seen this yrs ago

This is like fur people who say they are dogs. Silly - they are people

Ask them what real is? Yourself also, "The wind blows...". John 3:8. Where are you? It ain't the human body but the human being, Genesis 1:26. What body part is the most of you, child? What is hair about to you? And what part of your body? The nose hairs are very important in their purpose to the health of your human body. Why does the apparel gained of you in this World make you more? Not just talking about clothing. The achievements of the human body or human mind and the aesthetics gained in this World. Art is a fart from Hell to mislead you from your human heart [the spiritual one] to be HIM on Earth. Nudity is depravity and immodest dress. Define modest. Yes it is about the covering of the human body but your human heart most. Why do you need? Ask our dearest Holy Spirit to discern the spirits in this World. Many are NOT of Heaven. The Culture of this World that rules most. Ask our Lord to reveal you to yourself. You will not like that sight that pride and selfishness rules most, and the demons hailing you royalty. Did enough to matter. Truth hurts when living Him in His Love and His Will. The taint of the first Eve is gained our human hearts. 9 "𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓱𝓾𝓰𝓮 𝓭𝓻𝓪𝓰𝓸𝓷, 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓪𝓷𝓬𝓲𝓮𝓷𝓽 𝓼𝓮𝓻𝓹𝓮𝓷𝓽, 𝔀𝓱𝓸 𝓲𝓼 𝓬𝓪𝓵𝓵𝓮𝓭 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓭𝓮𝓿𝓲𝓵 𝓪𝓷𝓭 𝓼𝓪𝓽𝓪𝓷, 𝔀𝓱𝓸 𝓓𝓔𝓒𝓔𝓘𝓥𝓔𝓓 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝔀𝓱𝓸𝓵𝓮 𝔀𝓸𝓻𝓵𝓭, 𝔀𝓪𝓼 𝓽𝓱𝓻𝓸𝔀𝓷 𝓭𝓸𝔀𝓷 𝓽𝓸 𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽𝓱, 𝓪𝓷𝓭 𝓲𝓽𝓼 𝓪𝓷𝓰𝓮𝓵𝓼 𝔀𝓮𝓻𝓮 𝓽𝓱𝓻𝓸𝔀𝓷 𝓭𝓸𝔀𝓷 𝔀𝓲𝓽𝓱 𝓲𝓽." [Revelation 12:9] When the demons are NOT a constant battle to you gaining Heaven, they own you. What is your vice on Earth? Or are you a saint on Earth that could NEVER be MOTHER. EVER BLESSED VIRGIN, without sin.
