Credidimus Caritati - SSPX Sermons

[@rosewallace4912]

This was such a beautiful sermon! I cried in my kitchen listening to it. I got my husband to listen to it and now we're enthroning the Sacred Heart of Jesus in our home today! Our family tends towards harshness and being a bit too 'Type A' and productive. I really believe this devotion will help us all remember God's love for us. It's the first time I've ever understood why the images of the Sacred Heart of Jesus are everywhere. Thank you so much Father for this wonderful sermon. You shared your heart with us too in this sermon, and it really comes through.

Thank you , Father for the beautiful Sermon❤❤❤

I have seen him on the KZbin series “Crisis in the church” with Andrew. He said in that particular series that, “I’d rather die than celebrate the Novus Ordo mass!” Can’t help but like this priest. God bless him.

Who is this priest? I clicked on the link given to the 'original video,' but it is not, at least it is not the original to this particular (wonderful) sermon. Could anyone please tell me who this priest is?

Another person said Father Frank's.

What, objections to Father Faber's *style? Why, what? How could that be? I am presently reading Bethlehem and I have never had such a heart-stopping portrait of God the Father and I will never look at the sky or the storm or the lights in the ocean without wave after wave of love breaking over me for my invisible God. For Father Faber to say not to fear the darkness, God is there and presses us to Him then, in the dark, for Father to say that is simply to change my life, half of which is in darkness. One can never be the same again after reading Faber. And his vocabulary! My paper-bound copy of Bethlehem is perhaps four inches thick, hundreds of pages on the most important few elements in our faith, well organized and footnoted with the appropriate theologians, and every single word in it is used in the poetic sense (with rhythm and alliteration and assonance and allusion) and those words are arrows that strike straight at the heart--and some of them I did not know, when I thought I knew every word in the English language. Frederick Faber is breath-taking. Perhaps he is only for a few. Yet there surely cannot be a Catholic who ever gazed at the new-born Child in the manger who will not deeply appreciate Father's sustained meditation on that magical night when Christ was born.

I agree! I love him too. But my experience is that this style of prose is foreign enough to some people that they don't find it spiritually helpful. The sentences are long, the word choices can be unfamiliar. The nuances can be fine and subtle. An inexperienced reader can find it hard to follow the flow of the argument. I don't think he is for a few, I think he is for many. Just not all, in concrete. I suppose I just don't want people to feel like second rate Christians, just because they find Fr. Faber's style too difficult to get to the "meat". In Christ, Fr. Franks

Thank you Fr Frank this is so true. I particularly struggle to understand old traditional poetry and hymns, and some theological books with long difficult sentences, where hard to follow the tread and the meaning. God bless
