My Advice to Young Priests: Follow Your Gifts

[@goskaku7291]

Lord, please protect these men form all evil give them strength to follow you. Your will be done. 🙏🏻

[@josephcaristo]

What is most important and astounding is not so much how enthralled we are by Bishop’s words, but how the clergy around him are hanging on every word. Play this video again and see how taken they are. Please Lord be merciful when it is his time to be broken.

[@kennethtan2605]

His words are as of one who has been broken. If you have not grasp this in the time you have seen his videos, you may not have heard him. He is truly a blessing for the Church in USA.

"Your BEING increases the more you give it away." --- John Paul 2nd. Great quote. God bless the new Priests.

[@philwagner2776]

I’ve attended several ordinations in my long life, but this is the most brilliant instruction I have ever heard.

[@albertoflamini]

For the new priests being ordained! And for all vocations! For the pope and the church, for Bishop Barron and all callings to all the sacraments! For the most needed! 🙏🏻🔥For all the Emaus brothers and sisters in the US and the world that constantly help at the retreats and their local parishes!

"Your ambition can come from your ego, don't follow that but your gifts they come from the Holy Spirit, so follow those ... ... *follow the ways Christ has blessed you."* - BISHOP ROBERT BARRON

[@OrigenisAdamantios]

"...many ordinations do not proceed from the grace of God, but are due to human ambition." -St John Chrysostomos

[@lindacretella8970]

That was so beautiful Bishop Barron. I never had the privilege to attend an ordination. I never even watched one. Your words send a beautiful message, especially when you said follow your gifts and not your ambitions. May the Lord bless all these young priests and may God bless you Bishop Barron for being such an inspiration and role model to all. Amen

[@larryulery3729]

I could listen to Bishop Barron . I can't wait until he makes Cardinal

[@alelilaceda3539]

Congratulations to the three seminarian who will be ordained

[@marystenson2852]

God bless these men! What a sign of hope to the Church. So badly needed in this thirsty world❤️🙏🌹

[@timGawarecki]

Blessed to attend this incredible celebration. Unfortunately it was difficult to focus on the homily because my baby decided she wanted to give a homily too (you can hear her at 5:38 and other various times). Thank you for uploading this so I could return and listen again to this powerful message. I think much of what is said is true for all vocations. Inspiring for us all. Praise God for these holy priests. May He bless them and protect them!

[@marystenson2852]

I was just thinking how Beautiful to hear the darling baby, what a sign of joy and calling in the Lord!! ( not easy for parents I know I know)❤️🙏🌹

[@declancronin437]

May God bless you and your Baby on such a special day. Your baby is praising God too..🙏

[@barbarapalczewski5341]

Such a beautiful homily for the newly ordained and all priests! God’s blessings on all as you proceed in your ministries! Thank you Lord for these vocations!

[@deliamillanes7141]

[@OscarGSuris]

God bless the newly ordained priests and thank to Bishop Barron for your very inspiring and formative weekly sermons.🙏🙏

[@YanPutrisuryo]

Goose bumps and tears while watching this🙏

[@jesmary11]

All glory to God for these 3 priests and praying for them to be Holy Priests and congratulations to each one of you and your blessed parents and families . 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💕💕💕💐💐💐

[@stk2000]

You are a very holy man, bishop Barron. He takes you, he blesses you, he breaks you... and then there is the giving. What a wonderful sermon to reflect upon.

[@Martin-qm2lg]

A wonderful day, a timeless message. Praise be to God! Pray for many, many more great priests!

[@TinaHipolito]

Lord make their hearts like your Sacred Heart, in Jesus name. Amen

[@BNOBLE.]

Simply beautiful to watch. I just finished watching a video about the closings of dozens of catholic churches in my old home city of Buffalo NY and my heart was broken. To witness this lifted my spirits.

[@kdurant1234]

The most outstanding homily I’ve heard from Bishop Barron!!

[@bikecameraaction3334]

This message is counter-cultural, and I wouldn't expect anything less from Bishop Barron. If only all our schools, colleges, and universities would send their young into the world with this powerful message, instead of 'follow your dreams; which we know so often leads to self-obsession, depression and disappointment...and a fractured, individualistic society. Thank God for Bishop Barron and his ministry.

Your being increases in the measure that you give it away. JP2

[@victorianoabana1103]

Beautiful. Godbless our new priests!

[@devputh]

You have been anointed as priests of him our Lord. This is the toughest choice in life, to give up all pleasures and be a priest. You can't make it by yourselves to the end but HE can take you to the end as holiest of holiest of priests, if you were to put ourself complete ly in his care, I mean completely, totally and totally. God bless

[@LCccce6]

Love Bishop Barren. God bless those young priests.

[@josephmenditto1052]

My heart was on fire hearing this. Thank you Lord for your Priests!

Perdóname Señor, por todas las veces que no tuve en cuenta, que cada Sacerdote es un elegido Tuyo... Gracias por bendecirnos con ellos. Aunque estemos a miles de kilómetros, sus Bendiciones se derraman por toda Tu Creación. 🙏

[@jedlevron]

We are all called to bless, break, and give. It's called pray, fast and give alms. 😊

[@jacquisepulveda]

I am at the UIC hospital with my daughter who had brain surgery. During this stay we have been blessed with three seminarians who have come to share the gospel, the Eucharist, and their journey. What a blessing to be in their presence and to know that men are hearing and accepting the call. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

[@pastoralucena8861]

😊❤🎉 Thanks Bishop Barron

[@simonsma4348]

Amen!

[@magis2023mc]

Powerful words full of spirit and truth! The ministry is an undeserved gift to the Church!

[@paudieslattery7536]

Bishop Barron is a true apostle and he has helped me strengthen my faith tremendously. God bless you Bishop and thank you.

[@Thelnquisitor]

Wonderful.

[@kathleenpluth4868]

Beautiful homily! The four verbs are repeated in each telling of the miracle of the loaves. Great choice of "If Ye Love Me" as background music as well.

[@christineflores8599]

Even if full regalia, Bishop is so real and approachable.....reminding us that God is there for us to approach, and chose us to come to Him for everything and anything. Thank you, Bishop.

[@dottyp4500]

Amazing thank u

[@NFPura]

Thank you Bishop Barron. For Holy is the Lord of Hosts. We should all follow the gifts the Holy Blessed One Be He has bestowed upon us. For the Ruarch HaKodesh. Veni Sancto Spiritus. Come Holy Spirit Come. May your cup be filled. May it be overflowing. Shalom Aleichem. Gadol Elohai.

[@matthewhartt5887]

Good luck! You're going to need it!

[@MarilynSharpGraben-qi5oe]

I have listened to 5 minutes of the sermon, and discerned the brokenness of the message which is contrary to the unifying, redemptive, healing, Grace of Holy Scripture emphasizing the resurrection and Trinity. I am praying for these seminarians and Bishop Robert Barron.

[@susanparker767]

✨💪🏼✝️🛡️✨ … ✨📿✨ … Amen ✨🙏🏼✨

[@peterg1978]

Wonderful

[@annairungu2678]

Definitely goes without saying God's mercies are new every morning look at the gift God has given the church in this day and age in Bishop Barron, dear Lord each time I'm tempted to complain about the church please remind me of this gift as that of our Parish priest. God bless his church his people and he's clergy now and forever 🙏🏽

[@timGawarecki]

Bishop, in one of your recent homilies on Eucharistic Adoration, you mentioned that every mass, when Christ is made present in the Eucharist it’s like a kindling a new flame 🔥. That’s all I could think about as the fire alarm was going off minutes before the Mass began… 😅

[@ChildofGod98765]

Jesus gives me the courage and the strength I need to overcome any obstacles. As a single mom I’ve been struggling to support my children both are special needs. As I struggle to buy groceries and as I struggle to pay my bills Jesus has never left my side. There is always a miracle around the corner. I have faith that Jesus will continue to get me through this. Faith over fear.💕

[@casadechris923]

Wow four bishops, so I’m curious. When and where was this ordination celebrated.

[@danielwelch6696]

I would suggest too that young priests focus first, as did Jesus, on the people they serve. He emptied himself, did not focus on himself. This is the essence of service.

[@OliverAlexandre-d9w]

As long as ‘vocation’ does not become ‘predestination’ … ‘before you were formed in the womb’ carries a risk 😢

Do you think Bishop Barron is bobbing his head to this music in preparation?

Christianity is the Redemption of God Christ, it is the Triumph of the Resurrection, of the Word by decisive triumph of the best human creature, the spiritual Queen announced and described in Genesis, the Queen and her spiritual descendants, Holy Mary, Queen of Saints , who will oppose the serpent and his puppets Christianity is the Civilization of the Family, of Goodness and of the spiritual order of Truth and Justice among the human creature during our earthly self-determinative test.

[@SeaJay_Oceans]

My Advice to Young Priests : Convert to Southern Baptists, get married to a wonderful Lady, have many many children, and always dedicate themselves to fulfilling 1 Timothy 3. Teach your church to memorize and understand everything in the Word of God.

[@jsam1997]

Catholicism is work salvation, please turn to Christ in faith as the Bible clearly says we are saved by grace which translates to CHARIS meaning "unmeritted favor/free gift." quite literally. There is a Reason why Paul says in Romans "for the wages of sin is death, but the FREE gift of God is eternal life through christ Jesus our lord." Again grace's literal translation in the Greek is "unmeritted favor/free gift." Salvation is completely free all you have to do is believe that what Jesus did for you 2000 years ago actually worked. He died as a substitute for sin on the cross for you and me because the penalty for sin is death, if the penalty has already been paid and "by grace you have saved through faith" then all you are doing is believing that his payment was for you, a.k.a excepting it and believing you have eternal life as a result of his finished work (and of course believing he rose from the dead as a dead savior can't save you.) The reason you cannot add a work to Christ's finished work is because as Paul makes clear in Romans 11:6 "And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work." You aren't under grace if you add something to the gospel because grace must be unmeritted for it to be attributed to you. Again, you are just trusting in what Christ already did for you, that's why in ephesians Paul says "after you believed, you were sealed with that holy spirit of promise, which is the GUARANTEE of our inherentance until the redemption of the purchased possession." Paul can't use the word guarantee here if salvation is partially based off of something you do, as obviously YOU can fail in your efforts meaning there is obviously no guarantee. But if it is entirely based off of what Christ did, then there is a guarantee.
