Hints of the Holy Spirit - Bishop Barron's Sunday Sermon

[@Tata-qd1pn]

I have followed you, Bishop Baron, ever since “Catholicism” PBS shows. I used to think how courageous is this priest. You strengthened my faith. But till this day i still think… Who are you? Every time i listen to you, even though i have heard the readings so many times before, i learn and rejoice in the new message you provide. You are full of the holly spirit. God bless you.

[@kevinanderson705]

I just finished Bishop Baron!!!! We must be on the same algorithym

[@grivsxiaomi4661]

Amen

[@trainman5603]

I learn much as well, even though I heard these readings this weekend!

[@dorothylanasa6074]

Thanks for your speech on the Holy Spirit!

[@deborahmillette]

Agreed

[@Marjoe4005]

JOY. Is so important as Catholics. Spread the love.

[@carolhedberg2341]

My husband is dying, & I struggle with joy right now. But oh, God does live in me. Thank you!

[@anneturner2759]

Sending compassion and sincere tenderness . I know what you are living and I’m sorry . Allow me to say , as you go through this, lean into the love fully … lean , lean .

[@maureenporter2967]

I’m so sorry for the pain and loss to come. I truly hope for his joy and peace with God in heaven.

[@kaykurz9759]

I will pray for you at this most difficult time. The love you have had with your husband makes the pain of losing him worthwhile. God is LOVE. Hold on to that during this time of suffering!

[@KB_2161]

❤ Lord Jesus, the Divine Physician, we lift up those in need of healing. May Your grace and love bring wholeness and peace to their lives through Christ our Lord. Amen. ❤

[@shannonsalter6407]

I am praying for your husband and for you❤

[@PolymorphicPenguin]

I'm so thankful, Bishop Barron, that you make your Sunday sermons freely available to everyone.

[@mahmoudsbeih8614]

[62] And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called. [63] And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marvelled all. [64] And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spake, and praised God. [65] And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Judaea. Luke 1 : 62-65 Peace be upon you. I hope you ask the priest what the 8-day-old boy did so that the mountains of Judea would talk about him and those present would marvel at him. 4. Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his country, among his relatives, and in his own house.” 5. And he was not able to do any power there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and healed them. (Mark, 6) Why couldn't Christ perform a miracle?

[@marcelamaria4205]

Yes, thank you!

[@ChildofGod98765]

Lord I know you have a purpose for me. Even though at times I do not understand. I have complete trust in you Heavenly Father. Being a single mom with two children with special needs is overwhelming at times. Every month is a struggle to get by. But as I struggle to pay rent and as I struggle to buy groceries for my children. I keep faith. Faith is all I have left. I WILL NEVER STOP TRUSTING THE LORD. God give me strength. 💕

[@poppyde7314]

God bless you 🙏

[@selfhelp7278]

Amen. Praying for you. But mostly thanking God for the Faith and love He has given you. Stick to Him. And He will do the rest.

[@deborahmillette]

I pray 🙏🏽 to God for you . He knows your needs better than I could . In Jesus name Amen.

[@SG-xx3ir]

I have never seen a better example of the Holy Spirit at work than when the Bishop speaks. Hallelujah 😊 Thank you Bishop for your work, may God continue to work through you

[@alicemcpherson7961]

Amen ❤

[@conniefournier5776]

A lot of times when I say the rosary, I say it with Bishop Barron. I have some of his books and it’s amazing when I read the words, I hear him, his cadence and the way he speaks come through to me. I am one of the lucky ones, who now can call him MY bishop… he is now Bishop of my diocese. How we are blessed!!

[@nanettefernandez2863]

Make the best out of this blessing

[@gloriarangott8803]

Indeed you ARE BLESSED to have him as your Bishop❤😊.

[@agnesmanlangit6756]

Truly blessed!

[@wo0dy62]

What is your favorite book of his?

[@malice836]

“Christians should be joyful”. Beautiful and so true! Thanks once again Bishop Barron 🙏🙏

[@benz8681]

Every time I listen to your sermons Bishop it makes me fall in love more with the Catholic faith. God’s unconditional and conditional love makes perfect sense to me

[@charlottefasi3557]

I’ve just discovered Bishop Baron. What a preacher and more so teacher. The presentation on Thomas Aquinas blew me away. It met the listener rather than impressed the listener like my professor who introduced Thomas Aquinas long ago. Bishop Baron wishes to instruct and impart knowledge, share knowledge and above all instill the confidence to grasp it and make it one’s own. I hope teachers and professors are observing how Bishop Baron so modestly and simply presents his subject. I recall facing philosophy class with such trepidation. Thank you so much , Bishop Baron for making philosophy for everyone.

[@meshachchindaba]

Listening to Bishop Barron makes the Christian faith so beautiful.

[@SS-zg6of]

Can't say the same about the Pope (who invites Gavin Newsom to speak about climate). Ah, but we should forgive him

[@НадяСенів-ч6п]

Please continue to pray for Ukraine🙏. We've been suffering from Russia for so many years 😢

[@SS-zg6of]

Glory to Ukraine! The USA will never abandon the Ukraine!!!!

[@НадяСенів-ч6п]

@SS-zg6of We know that! Thank you, dear brothers and sisters! God bless all of you and your country 🙏 ❤️

[@Martin-qm2lg]

Amazing to think that the Russian Church is firmly behind Putin's invasion and war on Ukraine. This is something utterly non Christian. Pray for the Russian Orthodox Church, especially its leadership. They must repent from this terrible heresy.

[@lawrenceauvaa5521]

We pray for peace ❤

[@somebodyu.usedtoknow]

Pray Ukraine leaves nato to the other countries and Russia won’t be a threat to anyone

[@marypinakat8594]

"Only Christianity says that God is love ... The Holy Spirit is the love that God is ..." *- Bishop Barron*

[@annabeard2679]

Oh, that must be why you always start your daily gospel reflection with "friends" in the emails! 🥰 As always, a beautiful sermon. ❤

[@rollbruv]

Thank you for the beautiful sermon Your Excellency. My newborn is getting baptized next Sunday, on the Feast day of the Ascension of our Lord. We've named him Elijah. Please keep us in your prayers. ☦️🙏

[@josephcaristo]

This homily reenforces what is true about our faith. There should be no grumpy Catholics. Joy is a sign for all to see the Holy Spirit is behind and in the works we perform for our brothers and sisters. This is truly an indication of love blended together with joy.

[@paulinekabiruh1708]

Joy, joy, joy. God is love and love is joy. Thank you Bishop Barron, may God fill your heart with joy and love, amen

[@rvz77]

The Catholic Church found its pulse again. Well done Bishop Barron! I love your exuberance & JOY in this sermon! "Shout it from the rooftops what I whisper to you in secret." ✝️ 🕊

If I live a million years and each day give away the unconditional love God has given me, I would not reach the end.

[@shanikaperera8856]

Thank you Bishop Barron. You make the bible stories and gospel meaningful and relevant to our lives. You don’t water down the message and are unapologetic of the Christian faith…..thank God for your life and teachings at these very challenging times! We love you for it.

[@dagmarcamargo393]

God bless you, dear Bishop Barron!

[@waynebarry604]

Thank you Bishop Barron. I agree , nothing can make people more curious today than someone with a joyful spirit. What a wonderful way to evangelize. Letting God radiate through our joyfulness.

[@shirleymaurer8031]

What A Friend We Have in Jesus, like the song tells us. Bishop Barron, your words always reach my soul. With Daily and Sunday Sermons I am always listening to and being lifted by your messages and daily scripture. God is with you as He is with me but still I ask God to bless you richly.

[@marilynnelloyd7983]

Thank yiu Bishop Barron for your always uplifting sermons 🙏🏻 i lost my way some time back and now returned to GOD and I am happy at last. My parish priest has welcomed me back with kindness and love, so I rejoice in GOD'S love again. One parisoner has been sending me your sermons and i am truly blessed to receive them , you are an inspiring Bishop in every way and I look forward to ALL your sermons. Thank you for helping me on the way GID BLESS YOU ALWAYS 🙏🏻🙏🏻💖

[@robynabbott3097]

I said before and I'll say it again. Even if all you said was "Peace be with you", I would still tune in. Thank you once again for a beautiful homily your Excellency ✝️🙏.

[@antoniocarlosferreira7341]

Hi Bishop Barron. Thank you for one more great homily. I loved the link you made between Love and the Holy Spirit.

[@valeriocritelli6714]

A very good sermon on the existence of the Holy spirit in a Christian. You are validating the existence of the Spirit through the gift of joy.

[@jmclay4317]

“Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful. And kindle in them the fire of your love. Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created. And you will renew the face of the earth”

[@aurorauplinks]

There are many gifts God gives his servants when it is needed something greater. Sometimes the gift is just the ability to inspire people to not feel alone, or hopeless, but to have a reason to see a new day, and to do so with love in their hearts, faith and truth in their mind.

[@RJLaguna]

God Bless you Bishop Barron and thank you for this channel that all can hear the Truth!

[@arlenismendez1090]

i felt the Holy Spirit when listening to this message. This is beautiful. I have grown to love the Holy Spirit deeply and i get so excited to hear Bishop Barton’s messages on the Holy Spirit

[@elizabethpickett148]

In gratitude to Bishop Barron for God’s amazing work and for Word On Fire!

[@O.I._Valentine]

Love is God. And the Holy Spirit is God. To keep God's commandments and have his joy, means you have the Holy Spirit. Thank you so much, Bishop Barron, for this teaching.

[@gracacarvalho424]

May God bless you Bishop Barron.❤️ I will pray for you.

[@briken2539]

Thank you for your sustained dedication to the Kingdom of God in the Church

[@markmanning-o4w]

It seems the Christian notions of joy is different than secular notions of joy in many ways. I believe Mother Teresa was always joyful - even doing very difficult work; and all the while being in a spiritual "Dark Night of the Soul" she remained Happy to serve God and the poor.

[@billycorvette2644]

God I am a sinner. Have mercy on me.

[@antonioborriello5287]

Billy, yes we are all sinners. But please keep this in mind: Yes, God loves you, even though you constantly sin...BUT, that really isn't the question....the question for you, for all of us, is... do we love God, how much do we love God?! Meaning...God loves us even though we offend him, but what do we do to try and give that love back? Do we do EVERYTHING we can, do we ask him ..to make us stop offending Him. We expect Him to 'give us the gifts' to 'do something for us' to help us stop sinning...but do we submit to Him do we do our part to chase after Him instead of that sin we are attached to?? There is no way we can do it ourselves, on our own...we have to truly, truly, truly, in our hearts, enough that it might kill us, to turn away from that sin. Remember, there are those who say 'God loves me anyway'....well then, He does, but at the end He is going to say you chose that over me. Keep fighting, keep trying and He will accept that, you will be His..'live in the Holy Spirit's not in the darkness 'on my own I can do nothing, but with you, I can do everything!'. "JESUS, I TRUST IN YOU" - please look up Divine Mercy devotion

[@brodyjohnson1337]

Lord Jesus Christ Son of God have mercy on me a sinner.

[@bdududhen]

I am a devout catholic and I speak in tongues pentecostal style every day. It happened for me by surrendering and seeking a direct experience with Jesus.

[@Jimwaugh8]

VERY VERY POWERFUL SERMON. Thank you Bishop Barron. You inspire me every time again. 🙏🌱

[@luciArtist_]

Wow! Thank you Bishop Barron. Trinity: lover(Father), beloved(Son), share love(Holy Spirit). Divine love always comes first. Holy Spirit is given to us. “Joy”comes from “sharing love”-Holy Spirit.

[@DawnLapka]

I believe that the Holy Spirit calms me enough to write or speak the words that need to be said. Otherwise, I struggle with it. What's funny about that to me is that I graduated with a bachelor of arts in communication-theater with a minor in psychology. It was Grace that helped me meet people in my work experiences to receive a Master's Degree in Organizational Psychology with a focus on Educational Leadership. How do I get to use it? Operating a shuttle at a busy airport. And that's more Grace. That's how I'm relating to this homily. Thank you, Bishop Barron.

[@Grillo787]

Peace with all my brothers in christ

[@HAL9000-su1mz]

Please, God!

[@sandyv2195]

Bishop, I've been listening to and learning from your wonderful homilies and other teachings for years now, but this is truly one of your best. Thank you for sharing God's gifts to you with the world. May he bless you to continue to do so for many years to come.

[@paulrubio3918]

Thanks be to God for another insightful homily. Bishop Barron masterfully reminds us that the Holy Spirit is the result of God's love, and keeping in step with the Holy Spirit, we are called to be the manifestation of the love God experiences in the Trinity. And we should be filled with joy that God, Who, in the words of St. Thomas Aquinas, enjoys Himself, is dwelling in us through the Holy Spirit, the result of His love.

[@veronicasandoval579]

Being friend of God… amazing! His love be with us all!!!

Joy and friendship with God must mark all Christians. Something we must work on everyday, through prayer, patience, and seeking to be holy.

[@deborahmillette]

Here at St Mary’s of Uxbridge, MA NE , we listen to Bishop Barron at Bible study every week for many years . I pray Bishop Barron will be the first Pope from United States. He’s got all the credentials ✝️🙏🏽

[@SS-zg6of]

What does God do all day? Enjoy himself - that's the Spirit!

[@IvyStubblefield-xh6tj]

Dear Bishop Robert Barron, I wake up every morning, barely able to tie my shoes. Nevertheless, I do. Please pray for the people of God. Every day, as a Christian, no matter where I go, no matter what I do, I am pounded upon. I am a Christian, for crying out loud. I am not in this to prove it. The proof is in what Jesus Christ, my Savior did for me. People talk about battle. I do not want to battle. Was there a battle? I completely forget. And it is kind no one else's business. Why do I have to explain this to the world, as if that is the context. Get it or don't. The Food is on the table. And pretty much after that, it's exactly what Jesus said.😊

[@IvyStubblefield-xh6tj]

I don't do icons. Unfortunately, some computer program decided to put a smiley on the end of my sentence. I am Not smiling. I hate icons.

[@IvyStubblefield-xh6tj]

Do not smile at me at this time.

[@josefperry3836]

When we see joyous groups of people today we immediately wonder whether they're all drunk or high on something. That's exactly what skeptics thought when they saw Peter and the apostles on Pentecost Day two millenniums ago. (Acts 2:13.) In his reflection on the three readings, Bishop Barron zeroes in on the one phenomenon that will baffle skeptics today -- joy. (I Thess: 5:16.)

[@JoseCerv-et6nf]

I have been knocking and seeking and the Lord has revealed Himself and His treasures through Bishop Barron. Thank You Lord.

[@Giant79]

When I listen to your teachings Bishop Baron I feel the Holy Spirit upon me, you have been my spiritual mentor ever since I listen you for the first time many years ago, how wonderful to see that God has blessed you with the power of Love in Jesus name.

Love, when it breaks out, is the most extraordinary thing. -Bishop Robert Barron

[@anneturner2759]

Oh so true , “ when it breaks out” , it moves mountains , heals, and brings utter joy to the giver and the recipient , hands down . It’s the elixir, it is all and the reason why we are here , survive and thrive . I have had the grace my whole life . Should I die today , absolutely have had the most beautiful and extraordinary life through love ! Love my triple B!

[@alwaysbekindlove]

It is so sad but it’s absolutely the truth if you don’t have joy. keep looking for the Holy Spirit. Let him bring you the joy that only the Holy Spirit can pierce away at any sadness or anger. And bring you peace amen

[@JRX0X0]

Spare me the joyless Christian…. That’s gold 👌🏽

[@WilliamPotter-hi4hx]

Absolutely a very insightful and beautiful homily. Thank you Bishop Barron for your reflection on each of the reading for this the sixth Sunday of Easter. You are truly a gift to the Church and your priesthood.

[@helenrabbitt8780]

God Bless Bishop Barron The Holy Spirit is the Love between the Father and the Son

[@MaureenNickodem-ls3rw]

This is so right on! Thank you Bishop Barron. I often wonder why people returning to their pews after receiving the Eucharist, have heads low, sadness on their faces and seem to be carrying the weight of the world on their shoulders? I shared with some of our priests here in Sheboygan, WI. That they could be skipping back to their pews with smiles on their faces, if they embraced the love they just received from God through the son, that is complete LOVE! 🙏❤

[@anneturner2759]

I hear you , I hear you! I’m of the same thoughts.. Going to mass , receiving the Eucharist is beyond ecstasy , yet there we all are in our hush hush..shhh. Shhh , seriousness. Makes me crazy , I feel like going to podium and asking , “ does anyone realize what is happening here”!. We should be out of our seats . So darn serious, every bodies afraid to move , speak , rejoice .. Can’t stand it , I always talk to the priest and he says , “ I know “…. Of course it’s a serious matter to worship Christ and his , for heavens sake , excuse the pun , dying for us , but He is giving us His in body and blood …. I’m ectatsic. Just my humble opinion .

[@carakerr4081]

Happy Ascension Thursday! May God bless Word on Fire! ❤️🙏❤️

[@moonbeam728]

The Trinity, oh boy, TY for connecting the dots with this sermon. Worth a second listen. Shall think of your insightful and wise suggestion to read all three readings with this in mind. I don’t know what we Catholics in the pews would do for a Sunday sermon if we didn’t have you, Bishop Barron! So grateful. Blessings!

[@diannefitzmaurice9813]

[@LoudandClearChastity]

Warm greetings from Australia 🦘 Absolutely brilliant and inspiring homily! Why, oh why can't we hear these types of homilies in my local parish? Thank God for Bishop Barron and KZbin! There is a real hunger for Catholic spiritual knowledge. Priests need to lift their game.

[@sandyv2195]

Totally agree. I'm a lifetime practicing Catholic (now almost 70), and unfortunately a majority of parish priests deliver lukewarm, insipid homilies week after week, taking the greatest Good News ever told and making it--of all things--boring! 😱 So sad. People hunger to hear good preaching, to understand how to apply the scriptures to living out the Christian faith on a daily basis. If that were provided weekly in every Catholic church, the pews would be packed instead of half empty. 😢

[@LoudandClearChastity]

@@sandyv2195 thank you Sandy! Yes, totally agree. I have only just returned to the Catholic faith about 6 months ago (I'm a convert from last century!). However going to Church has been disappointing at times. Dealing with other Catholics has also been disappointing. Sorry for sounding negative. There is a lack of enthusiasm and passion. There is a lack of Catholic knowledge. Education is generally left to the devices of the individual. Eg. The Catholic Church has RCIA programs but NO programs for reintegration of reformed/reverted Catholics. I think that's bizarre. Some of the great Catholic KZbin resources are Fr. Chris Alar and Dr. Brant Pitre.

[@jeannebaio4128]

God Bless You Bishop Barron. You show us God's heart and through The Holy Spirit how to open it, so that more souls can receive God's love...a perfect and loving encounter of Almighty God's Love, destined to happen again & again. The more we do this, the more we avoid sin. What a beautiful KEY, God gives us all. Thanks for reminding us to open and enjoy this most perfect gift. It is so strong and perfedt , I think it gave itself. Thank you!
