Thank you for this homily. I am Catholic and my father is Catholic but my mother is baptist. Growing up I went to both Catholic and Baptist church every Sunday. I was never encouraged to read the Bible at my Catholic parish, but each week at the baptist church we memorised scripture and got into the habit of reading Scripture. I love my Catholic faith but I am eternally grateful for my Baptist training in reading the Bible daily.🙏

[@MAvila744]

At one time I was what is called a ‘fallen away’ Catholic. I picked up the Bible one day and began reading. In particular, the Gospels had a profound effect on me. I was never the same. I realized who Jesus is and what He had done for me. I looked at creation in a new way. Since those days many years ago I have devoted myself to parish ministries. I tell everyone the Bible is alive! God bless you, Bishop Barron!

[@downenout8705]

So you picked up the Bible one day and decided to skip over all the Old testament violence. I suggest that you try again and this time start at the beginning and after every verse proclaim aloud "this verse is good and true" and mean it.

[@itinerantpatriot1196]

For a long time I didn't want to hear the Word of God for the basest of reasons, I liked sinning and I didn't want anyone or anything to put a damper on that. When you get to the heart of it with a lot of people that is what is going on. The Word of God tells us sin is wrong and the wages is death. When you're engaging in hedonistic acts you don't want to hear that, especially when deep down you know it's true. But salvation is there for all who seek it, for everyone who humbles themselves, repents, and does their best to sin no more, because they don't want to. It really is that simple. We're the ones who make the whole thing difficult.

[@sandyv2195]

Bishop, you were just plain ol' Father Barron when my son 'suggested'--well, it was more than that, but said with loving and compelling authority--that I listen to you on KZbin and just like that, I came back to the Church through the incredible gift of the Sacrament of Penance and the welcome of a parish that (a) had a parking lot and (b) somehow seemed to have a congregation that didn't chatter in the pews until the entrance procession. And I've listened to you ever since because yeah, the initial high fades a bit; my parish has not disappointed but now I'm sitting in the same pew with sons and their wives and a bunch of tiny noisy little grandkids, so further reflection on the gospel of day is welcome and needed. God bless you, Bishop.

Bishop Barron mentioned that preaching needs to improve in the Catholic Church. I believe he is right, but we are expecting sermons to entertain us today more than anything else. I also believe that sermons no longer challenge us because people will immediately head for the door. We want that 10-15 minute period once a week to entertain us rather than allowing it to change our lives for the good. We hear it but we don't want to cooperate with it or let it challenge us or change us. It is not always exciting! It is not meant to be entertaining! If we let it do in us what it is meant to do, we would have no problem hearing it and we would, in fact, look forward to hearing it as often as possible. God bless you Bishop Barron!

God's Word is truly mighty, especially now that the Word was made Flesh and continues to be present among us. And we have an incredible opportunity for this Word to be spoken in us so that it bears great fruit as we tend the soil so that it produces a rich harvest that impacts the world. I went to visit a former pastor at his parish, where he spoke something insightful in his homily about how healthy plants produce seeds that continue the spreading of the harvest, just as we can sow seeds in others, especially in the next generation, so that they bear great fruit.

[@neildavidvandenbergh5422]

What a great sermon, thank you! 🙏 It's funny because I was just thinking the other day about how sad I am sometimes as a former protestant who has retained some great things about my former experience, that there does seem to be a sort of drastic underemphasis on the Word of God at times amongst Catholics. I'm glad that you touched up on that Bishop Barron, because I think that sometimes, even as well meaning human beings, we tend to get baited into these polemic arguments and Catholics are almost afraid that if they show any enthusiasm whatsoever about this precious gift of the word of God that they will be somehow conceding that protestants are right about everything. We need to stop caring about how we think we'll look in front of men and women, and start caring a whole lot more about how we look in God's eyes! The Divine Word is one of the most precious gifts that The Lord has given us and we need to embrace it as such! God Bless you Bishop, and thanks again for leading us 😄

The Catholic Church has been fabulous at preaching Christ's teachings. It isn't Christ's or His Church's fault that people who usually already know His teachings still approach with already- been- answered questions. Thankfully, Jesus authorized and blessed His Church with His infinite patience and wisdom in order to preach His teachings correctly to every nation, as He commanded.

This is wonderful, wow. Pray for Bp. Barron y’all; perhaps God is doing something?

[@anneturner2759]

Absolutely, He is always doing something.

For students of history the Bible is a chronology of the life and times of Jews spanning over a 2000-year period. For students of language it is the prose and poetry of that group of people. For some others, it's a collection of wise sayings. But for at least a few people that I know, who set aside a time every day to sit down in quiet and read it, it is -- as Bishop Barron says -- God speaking to them about the secrets of a world that is invisible and inaudible to mere mortals.
