A Fire in the Heart - Bishop Barron's Sunday Sermon

Friends, our first reading for this weekend is from the twentieth chapter of Jeremiah. There is so much spiritual wisdom in Jeremiah, but more than any of the other prophets, we come to know his personality and his life. And in this passage, all the texture of being a prophet is on display: both the terror on every side and a fire burning in the heart-both the opposition of those who refuse to hear the Word and the irresistible desire to announce it.

Dear Bishop Barron, please don’t ever give up on preaching.... I can imagine how you must be tempted to withdraw because of all the criticism and negativity, but you’re doing so much good by preaching the word of God and we thank you for that.... and.God bless you!

Hard to say how grateful I am to find the Catholic Faith even in this evening hour of my life. I am likely at least twice the age of the others in my RCIA class. A protestant all my life and lover of Jesus- I feel as though I have come home. It is so deeply personal it is difficult to share. Thank you for all of the work and all of these messages on WOF! Beyond grateful...

@sandyv2195 10 ай бұрын

Agree, though I respectfully offer another way to think about it: we need more priests who are not afraid to CHALLENGE WE WHO ALREADY BELIEVE to bring more people to Christ. For as Bishop Barron said, we are ALL "priest, PROPHET, and king." We cannot expect the ordained to do it all. We lay people have to do our part, too, and thereby multiply our combined efforts with the ordained as the entire body of Christ at work in the world today. We ALL have to be willing to be a bit of a Jeremiah wherever God has placed us.

As a child of divorce, I was in deep pain not being able to reconcile the fact that since my mom and dad hated each other, they must hate part of me too, since I am half of one and half of the other. It was when I was in front of the Blessed Sacrament when Our Lord told me "They did not create you, I DID. You are my beloved daughter, what happened with them does not concern my love for you. You are MY beloved and precious child." That took away so much pain, it was awesome! Children of divorce, don't despair. God created you, your parents were only physical, human vessels in His creative plan for us. He loves us deeply, and will never forsake us nor abandon us. Peace be with you.

Your words always seem to hit home in my heart, Bishop Barron. Especially in regards to family rejection when you are the truth teller in that family. It helps one to keep their eyes on the prize despite the resulting isolation. A prize of the heavenly family that continously surrounds one with an everlasting, unconditional love.

A smile, a chuckle in admiration. Bishop Barron walks the walk, not just the talk. I have viewed him in videos debating athiests. No reverence when he does. What he sermonzied on Jermiah today, Bishop Barron himself has practiced. In a world which does not want to even hear about religion. One third of all Americans surveyed claim, "No religion." Consequences obvious. Thank you, as always, Bishop Barron. I listen every week. Blessings, and stay well.

Amen! Truth and more elucidated by our wonderful Bishop Barron. I was privileged to proclaim this passage at mass. I found it "terrorizing: as though the very congregation disliked it. Our priest did not mention it inhis homily. It is one rough passage for me to proclaim. But now through Bishop Barron preaching on it, I have a renewed respect and understanding of Jeremiah. Indeed it is analagous to life today among disdainers and non believers.

Jeremiah didn't live in the space of success, he didn't find joyful success in the work he was doing, instead he found derision, mockery and rejection. But having said all that, with the terror on every side of his life, he realised that if he did not follow the voice of God within, it then became like an unbeaable fire burning in the heart, that could not be resisted. Likewise, we are all a priest , a king and a prophet within and at times we must express that and act on it..
