I got kicked out of Catholic schools many times. I was a high school drop out. I never did drugs. Never had a beer. Worked hard manual labor all my life. Retired at 56. Still go to mass and confession and say my prayers. I think of all the Hollywood stars and pro sports players making drugs a god. So sad.

Thanks so much father. As someone who has been apart from God for over 30 years letting him back in a year ago has been a crazy journey. More like a roller coaster with ups and downs or successes and failures. I know I will never be worthy of his presence and forgiveness, but I am eternally grateful for them. You mention joy, and he has given me that. But for me my guiding light, that tells me my temple is getting better, is peace in my heart. The more at peace I am, the better I am truly living.

God wants the best for us and to rearrange our soul into the best version of ourselves. Allow Him in and pray for the courage and peace for His love to transform you. Amen!

powerful words Fr. Robert Barron...I appreciate you reminding me of the importance of inviting the Savior into our personal Temples. In the process because of "marketplaces" we have established in our lives (instead of prayer), the Savior will "turn over" things in our souls that initially might be unsettling. But because of His love, we will be cleansed and ultimately find joy.

Thanks a lot, Father, for not only noticing the shift toward the attitude of thinking of Sunday as just another weekend day, but speaking out about it. As a retail employee, I can tell you that it's actually the busiest day of the week, since that is the day on which the new ads always come out. My bosses always slump their shoulders when I tell them I can't work on Sunday mornings, and even so I commonly have to rush from church to work to spend my day fighting frustration instead of praying.

What a wonderful presentation, Bishop! I love the way the way Bishop Barron stretched the temple/body metaphor. It's more than a metaphor, because as Bishop Barron mentions, St. Paul declares that a human body IS a temple, just as the body of Jesus IS the temple that was destroyed and rebuilt by the 3rd day. Unlike the religious establishment that schemed and succeeded to execute Jesus for overturning their temple's tables, we as Christians should INVITE Jesus to come into our bodies and turn over the worldly priorities within us. This insight takes me deeper in understanding the meaning of the Eucharist. Thank you!

I disagree with that father as a Hindu. We have idols statues pictures of Krishna Ram etc same with the Catholic church with statues of virgin Mary. The idea of a jeslous God seems so petty that's my problem with Abrahamic religions like Christianity or Islam Jewish the idea of following a bunch of rules where your stuck in a box unable to change or adapt in Comparison Hinduism. Says there are different methods to warship God so there is less strife than in the Christian west India and China historically due to the religious beliefs. Becuse its more adaptable than Abrahamic religions like Christianity and Islam Jewish French Philosopher Voltaire pointed this out I the 17th century I love your views on Religious topics

Amen. God knows what brings true inner peace and joy. The more we find the Commandments joyful, sweeter than honey, soul refreshing and so forth --- the more we know we love God. Not a 'forced' habit, while not being a cheerful giver of time, talent, and treasure to our neighbor --- for this is possible, interiorly exalting the ego with a prideful piety rather than true reverence in thankfulness to God. ~ In all my failings that hurt others and myself, my mind drifted into rationalizations. And thank God, this has always resulted in my dismal painful failure wondering, what went wrong? For me, its always a clear discernible start of rationalizing. ~ "By this we know that we love the children of God: when we love God and keep His commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome, because everyone born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world: our faith. Who then overcomes the world? Only he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God." 1 John 5:1-5 The early Christians had the Liturgy of the Word on the Sabbath (Saturday) and the 'Breaking of The Bread,' on the First Day of the Week.

Terrific talk on the First Commandment. I can't remember hearing one better. I would only say regarding the Second Commandment that God's 'name' can mean other things besides the very noun that denotes Him. His Name could also mean His reputation and His authority--all three things. For example, we are not to invoke God's reputation or authority over any issue that involves our personal or collective vanity. To do so makes Him look trivial and prejudiced in a way He's not. It's also an abuse of privilege, which prayer is. A good example of 'taking the name of the Lord in vain' might be praying to win a football game or worse yet--to win a war when you're the offending aggressor as the Nazis did. Such a request makes it look like you're asking God to play favorites. "Sorry," God replies. "No can do. I love all equally. I love THEM just as much as I love YOU! I died for all." A better locker room prayer or even a private prayer might be to ask God to help us learn and employ all the team skills, communication skills, or any other skills that Heaven wants us to learn. This prayer should be constructed to ask Heaven for skills that will help make us better Christians in the eyes of God outside the war room or the locker room. Such prayers should never be designed to make us just vain 'winners' in the eyes of the world. That intent violates the Second Commandment that also comes with a threat, "For the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His Name in vain."

God Himself commands many holy images to be placed inside the Holy of Holies. 1 Kings 6 describes how ornate the inside of the Holy of Holies was, replete with images of Cherubim and Seraphim, and of course the Ark itself had two huge, golden Cherubim over its lid. when the Israelites were in the wilderness and were bitten by the serpents, God commanded Moses to make an image of a bronze serpent and put it on a pole and all the Israelites are to look in faith to this image. This is recounted in Numbers 21. Once again, this is clearly a religious image because Jesus explains it as a mystical type of His crucifixion in John 3:14-15. St. Paul, in Colossians 1:15, says that Christ is the image (Greek is “ikon”) of the invisible God Joseph, as a ruler in Egypt, deserves the homage of his brothers and sisters, and thus they “bowed themselves before him with their faces to the ground” (Gen. 42:7). The company of the Lord’s prophets also bow down before Elijah in reverence in 2 Kings 2:15. Surely, if it were inherently wrong to bow before a created thing (and Joseph and Elijah were created), they would have rebuked others for so doing. There are numerous such examples of this in Scripture. St. Paul says to give “honor to whom honor is due” (Romans 13:7), and if anyone is due honor, it is the Saints and their relics. The patristic view is also very clear: “We do not worship, we do not adore [non colimus, non adoramus], for fear that we should bow down to the creature rather than to the Creator, but we venerate [honoramus] the relics of the martyrs in order the better to adore Him whose martyrs they are.” Against Riparium -St. Jerome “We by no means consider the holy martyrs to be gods, nor are we wont to bow down before them adoringly, but only relatively and reverentially [ou latreutikos alla schetikos kai timetikos].” Against Julian -St. Cyril of Alexandria And Bl. Augustine Against Faustus the Manichaean: “We, the Christian community, assemble to celebrate the memory of the martyrs with ritual solemnity because we want to be inspired to follow their example, share in their merits, and be helped by their prayers. Yet we erect no altars to any of the martyrs, even in the martyrs’ burial chapels themselves.” “No bishop, when celebrating at an altar where these holy bodies rest, has ever said, “Peter, we make this offering to you”, or “Paul, to you”, or “Cyprian, to you”. No, what is offered is offered always to God, who crowned the martyrs.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:05 📜 Reflecting on the Ten Commandments as foundational to Western society. 00:37 🛕 The first table of the law emphasizes our relationship with God, which should be the foundation for our interactions with others. 01:20 🙏 The first commandment highlights the importance of worshiping God alone and avoiding the worship of substitutes. 02:28 🤔 The question "Does it please God?" can reveal if our actions align with the fundamental value of worshiping God. 03:23 💬 God's jealousy is about our benefit, not His needs; worshiping God benefits us and shapes our attitude. 03:52 🗣️ Language matters in how we speak about ultimate things, as it influences our attitudes and beliefs. 05:12 🕊️ Keeping the Sabbath day holy helps to instantiate and embody the first commandment in our behaviors. 06:20 🌃 The desacralization of Sunday and its impact on the sacredness of the Sabbath and Mass attendance. 07:12 🏛️ The New Testament's account of Jesus cleansing the temple and how it relates to embodying the first commandment. 08:45 💰 The temple as a metaphor for the individual person and examining whether it's a house of prayer or a marketplace. 10:25 💡 Allowing Jesus to rearrange and transform our inner temple can lead to joy and fulfillment.

Oh, and what you say about the desanctification of Sunday in western society is so true!. I was born in England in 1972, and even up until about the mid 1980s I can clearly remember how special Sunday felt as a child. Hardly any shops were open, very few sporting games were played and in my village at least 60% of people went to church. It is frightening how quickly this has been lost in only the last 30 years...I hardly recognize the old country anymore to be honest :-(

Before I was received into the Church, I was Jewish and the ten commandments were (and continue to be) an important part of my life. I love Father Barron's take on most things and this is no exception. I try (I often fail but I try) to make an examination of conscience regularly on the ten commandments to see how I've disappointed God. I find it useful in my spiritual growth. I particularly like what he said about taking the Lord's name in vain. I constantly remind my teenagers of this one!
