Have You Stopped Listening to Jesus? - Bishop Barron’s Sunday Sermon
Vložit
- čas přidán 4. 09. 2021
- Friends, in today’s Gospel, Jesus travels outside of Israel and heals a man of his deafness. Today, we live in a realm of spiritual deafness. We are bombarded with voices from outside, echoing around us until we are as incapable of hearing as the man from our Gospel. Like him, look to Jesus to heal you so that you might hear the word of God and understand his truth, rather than the lies of the world which surround us.

After 40 years of working as a nurse, I resigned from my position after being diagnosed with severe aplastic anemia. After six months , I received a call from our Pastor and invited me to be part of the evangelization program of the parish. I don’t know what this all entails but after deep discernment, I realized that there’s more to do than just nurse myself at home. “Be opened!” Our Pastor has assigned me to be the overall Coordinator of the program. Your homily reinforces my willingness and my openness to God’s plan. Please pray for me. God bless you.
God bless you on this journey.
Amen
God bless you, our sweet Lord has protected you by leading you back to Him🤗💖
@@lulabella9249 Well said! I’m publishing a weekly CZcams video on episodes from the life of Don Bosco, entitled ST JOHN BOSCO by JOE ZAMMIT. In this series I’m narrating events and miracles from the splendid life of Don Bosco. St John Bosco used to perform a miracle almost every day, through the intercession of Mary Help of Christians. From the lives of saints we can learn how to love God more and draw closer to him. Thank you.
When one door closes another door opens
Jesus as my electrical currant, WOW, such a powerful image, be open Jesus says. Be open Rita, to hear higher voice, open my mind Lord Jesus.
Thank you Bishop Barron, and God bless you also!
Thank you, Bishop Barron, for allowing your voice be the Voice of Jesus, calling us back to the Father, to Himself, and to the Holy Spirit.. May I hear Him, and Listen, and Follow, ang Obey. Amen Amen Amen
I work in the media so I consume about 63x the amount of junk most people see in the news. Deafness to the Word of God... super real for me. But the Lord is merciful and gracious. Sometimes he shouts through the noise, such as with this video. Thank you Bishop.

It's truly wonderful how you are adding so whole heartedly to the demise of this ridiculous institution which has the temerity to call itself a church!
Jesus open my ears and my heart so i can listen to you vividly. Amen
'If these are all the voices we ever hear, that's all we're ever going to say. ' Brilliantly put.
He is the Bishop Fulton Sheen of our time 🙏
Pray for me.... Everything around me is,,,, I have faith, but can't exercise because of so much suffering, poverty and family being torn etc... Please pray for me... Sometimes so many tests make me feel so down that that day I feel too bad to get Good Lord on my mind, and sometimes it's hard to pray, even though I am sure I will not ever disbelieve...
Please pray for me....
All I can say is, "God bless you, Mauro! He has not forgotten you in your suffering but He walks with you and feels your pain." I pray you peace and wholeness, my friend.
I will pray for you. Just ask Jesus to carry you when you feel that your burden is too heavy. God bless you!
I will pray for you too :-).
Even your suffering if taken as a sacrifice for betterment in the world, your suffering becomes prayer 🙏 May God Bless you!
Another example of fine preaching. Bishop Barron nourishes the listener, inspires the listener with his sense of belief, and then provides sustenance for the week ahead. I think he is excellent.
What a blessing that I can hear on my tablet bishop Barron's talks thank you l ord for such a gift LenoraPipes rsm
Many thanks Bishop for bringing me back to Catholicism 🙏🏻❤️✝️

Such beautiful homily as only Bishop Barron can deliver.
🙋🙌💟🌹🌹🌹Greetings from Colombo Sri Lanka with Christian Catholic love for all people of good WILL! Glory to God in the highest and peace to all!👍😀
““Come to me with your ears wide open. Listen, and you will find life. I will make an everlasting covenant with you. I will give you all the unfailing love I promised to David.”

I am Always Positive about the Word of God. Peace Be With You and the Pope. Catholic Strong.
Dear Bishop Barron,i admire your love for Our Lord,God bless you.
I too have been called into Evangelization Ministry though I’m elderly and not very strong. Lord, I rely on Your Strength and being plugged into Your Power and Love. Trish, Australia. Prayers gratefully accepted!

Yes, Bishop Baron, it's TRUE that Jesus Christ healed the sick, He has POWER to heal because of His simplicity of LIFE and PRAYER.
You can also have that if you can FOLLOW PERFECTLY JESUS' WAY OF LIFE, PRAYER, and L❤VE to GOD the ALMIGHTY HOLYGOD... in Christian term "GOD the Father."
May you will be the PERFECT FOLLOWER OF JESUS CHRIST NOW AND FOREVER.🙏 AMEN!
Your voice and message Bishop Barron takes us away from the crowd that makes us know more about God. Thank you for having a space in this noisy and confusing world of social media. For it takes us back to Jesus, the voice that gives us love and peace.
Very thankful that Jesus built one holy Catholic and Apostolic Church wherein He Who is our daily Bread of Life can be found every day during the Holy Mass. And, that will continue to preach His teachings correctly until His return at the end of time. (Matthew 16:15-19; 28:18-20 NAB)
Thank you for carrying the torch, Bishop. Excellent sermon.
Listening to Bishop Barron is plugging into 2000 years of Holy Tradition; I experience the Apostolic power of his words, the power of the Church, the Mystical Body...of Christ Himself touching me metaphysically deeply with His power. Keep going Bishop Barron!
ALRIGHT EVERYONE, SMASH THAT LIKE BUTTON FOR JESUS
Thank you Bishop as usual excellent. Jesus have changed my life through you. Thanks again.
Beautiful sermon ❤. Thank you Bishop Barron. Every one of your sermons touches me deeply ❤.
Thank you Bishop Barron for making Christ's love real: For unpacking this story to make known what is unknown. Especially today when it seems the bad guys are winning and hope for this world is fading. Your message of evangelization is one of love for others who don't know Christ's faith, hope and love. Thank you for reminding us of this and our mission. God bless you.
Such an amazing word! I don't think I've ever heard Jesus and His words, His actions described in such a clear, powerful way!! Makes me want to rethink my relationship to Christ Jesus and if I'm actually listening to Him.
Fr. Barron, the depth in which you interpret the readings is inspirational to me. You get the depth of the message that I don’t always get, but your homilies make the message so clear and full of meaning. Thank you so much for what you do. ❤
Your talk/sermon was breathtaking! I Will pray for you that the words of Jesus continue to be reflected in your own words! Thank you for your daily sacrifice of worldly things to be a shepard of lost sheep!
I'm a protestan from indonesia✝️🇮🇩🇮🇩
Yesterday, I took a friend from church who has been struggling in life, to a mass,
a luncheon and a talk at St, Michael’s Abbey. It was a lovely day. More importantly, my friend sounded rejuvenated, and much happier at the end of the day. She needed to get plugged in to Jesus.
Thank you Bishop Barton! God Bless You! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Bishop Barron, I can’t tell you how much these Sunday sermons mean to me. They bring me to a deeper knowledge of the Gospels and help to strengthen my faith. God bless you
If you need a bishop to strengthen your faith, well, maybe it's time you had a rethink about whole thing.

@JD he is teaching the Bible and giving clear Christ centered spiritual direction. You should follow it instead of being a critic
This is the reason why I listen each week and love these sermons from you Bishop Barron: You are constantly bringing us to our loving God, drawing us away from the crowds in our secular society and fighting to help us hear Jesus. I am so very grateful. Thanks be to God.
Thank you so much! As always helping me to see new things in The Lord’s words and actions!!
I don’t always agree with Bishop Barron but I appreciate that he lays out his arguments so clearly, and I like this homily.
*"The point of Evangelization is to plug the deaf and inarticulate people into the field of force who is Christ, so that in turn they might be drawn into the very life of the Trinity."* - BISHOP BARRON
@@stingingnettle9726
Listen over and over a few times as per requirement. Not everyone's capacities are in the same measure. Nothing to be surprised, never to be laid-back.
Is that what it is? It's always seemed to me it was to annoy the crap out of everyone who doesn't think like you do. Atheists have opinions, too, but don't threaten you with burning in a lake of fire for eternity if you disagree with them. Evangelism should be prohibited. Everyone knows where to go for your information if we want it. Stay home.
@@philipfarnam6013 I don't know where you live but in the USA we have freedom of speech and freedom of religion. Evangelism is essential to Christianity as Christ instructs us to give His love and teachings to others. If others don't accept it that is their loss and evangelical Christians will press on sharing love and light with others while you seek out religious videos with the intention of trolling innocent people. That's sad for you. I hope something better grows in your heart, that something being love which only comes from God as a gift and can only be shared with others through His grace and mercy.
@@spidercherry108 Nobody's impinging on your freedom of speech or religion. What an incredibly assinine way to begin your response! You're sounding pretty much like the nonsense they teach potential "associates" and "partners" in technical sales schools. What you're "sharing" you regard as a message of "love and light"; important "gifts", as you said and your evangelical method as "essential"...a direct instruction from your imaginary deity. To the rest of us, you're just another PIA with a product to sell that we have to contend with. You should not be surprised at objection and resistance. Stay home.
Amongst the greatest Catholic preachers we have is Bishop Barron. The gift he has with handling The Word is something we need more of amongst our priests. This scripture from Mark 7 is full of so much meaning and I thought I understood most of the symbolism in it...reminding us that Tyre and Sidon were "pagan" and the equivalent of secular western culture put a whole new shine on it for me! God bless Bishop Barron's ministry!
Ave Maria !Thanked God for giving Bishop Baron to give us more realistic scenario of those that didn't realize that God gave them his Greatest Love Jesus our Redeemed and the Lord of Lords
Thank God Bishop Barron.He gave me you so that I can hear clearly what Jesus wants to tell me so that when opportunity comes I can tell to others what I heard and understood.God bless you Bishop Barron🙏💓
Thank you God for giving us Bishop Barron!!!!!!!
Beautiful Homily Bishop Barron. Thank you
COVID changed everything. Music, Religion and Dwelling o Our Faith and Religion, Being aware of what’s going around Our World is what changed me. Now, I will say Spirituality is not gained overnight, nor can it be instilled in everyone or anyone. This I can assure you. The world around us has changed before, yet keeps changing in the US, and many parts of them. For Each and Every Christian Or even Consumer Catholic May have their Own Priorities in Life. That said, May not even be as Virtuous, because of all of the distractions in life, as Bishop Barron discussed. Faith, morals, ethics, and yes, Prayer/spirituality goes hand in hand. Prayer is intimate, but should also be done together. The Art of Theology and Other Sciences is crucial and essential to help humanity. Amén. My friend, May God Bless. Amén. We are all Gods Children. 🙏🏼🕊❤️🤲🏼
Yes, we are tuned to a lot of voices, materialism, but not the voice of God. Thanks Bishop
I just filmed & uploaded my testimony this past week by the Grace of God. Amen!!!
I didn’t want to listen to this this morning, but I really needed to.
Going to confession this afternoon. Thank you, Bishop Barron.
Way to go!
You're brainwashed,wake up.
@@peterbeaumont7619 brainwashed to want to confess your sins to God? interesting, explain why you think that is brainwashing...
Bishop Baron understands Jesus'
Message, "Feed my sheep." I could listen to him all day. He is my favorite priest.
You'll be healed, God wants it. I just know it. God bless you sister in Christ. Please dont lose your catholic way when you're healed.
Theres so much noise , distractions in the world, cell phones, internet, social media,, etc. that we cant hear the voice God. Maybe in these Covid times our God is calling us back to Him . Our ancestors didnt have these gadgets but they were closer to God!Bishop I pray for you everyday, that you continue to inspire us! From Australia
Dear bishop, the man of God i m very blessed to listen your sermons. Please keep it up. I pray for your good health and for more wisdom. I m in Pakistan where i really need these preaching, as here we are finding very tough circumstances for prayers and many opposition. In these condition your preaching is helping us to be strong. I love your preaching. I also mostly used this
May God bless you more. Amen.
Thank you Bishop Barron. You give me strength and direction to obtain Eternalhappiness
Bishop you truly have a gift… every Sunday you continually deliver God’s word in a way that is relative to people today! I look forward to this every Sunday!
This is utterly brilliant. Even better than the usual brilliance. Thank you for your work; believe me, it is appreciated and effective.
Thank you Bishop Barron, a must HEAR for me 🕊✝️🙏
The Aramaic preservation you describe is the prize of this Video.
An inspired text that preserves not only the Eternal Word, but the Word as it was spoken as Truth built on Truth is priceless, neccessary, vital...
Brave and Rare
Thank You, and Peace be upon You

If Truth were a Woman, what then?
the aramaic for icthos is
Nun
You can check your Strong's on that one, and its predecessor, the Egyption Nu, Nut, Nun ... which leads to Luke, but if we translate or interpret or decipher 'optou,' biblically or homerically, we will come to different definitions.
With Shared Cause
... which is practically the entire discussion within Bacon's New Organon, outdated 'Scientifically,' yet at the forefront of the inception of science ... and not REALLY outdated, because many questions linger and with them we struggle
Also, via Nun, icthos can be far alternatively reinterpreted
Brilliant sermon Bishop! I wish all Sunday parish priests all over the Catholic world borrow your clear explanation of the Bible reading of the day. It would give another dimension to the cerebration of the Holy Eucharist. Thank you Bishop!
Not just the Catholic world but the entire Christian world. May God bless the Bishop 🙏🏽
There's such emptiness and despair in materialistic secularism, no wonder so many have lost all hope and become si nihilistic and suicidan.Thank You for helping us to move away from the criwd to listen to the voice of God
I heard a homily in York, England that was a straight copy from Bishop Barron ! 😂
@@peterbrookes3824 Well, if you're going to steal, steal from the best!
Jesus, Mary & Joseph, I love you. Save souls.
We articulate only what we hear. Let us pray we hear his word and articulate his beautiful message, to the ends of the world.

“I am ‘the voice of one crying out in the desert. Make straight the way of the Lord,” we must pray, live and support Bishop Barron's efforts.
are u Brazilian?
POWERFUL WORDS !!! Praise God!! Thank you!
Yet another wonderful sermon. In this often depressing COVID environment we all need to be plugged into the power of God.
Thank you for your insight and positive message. God bless!
what a wonderful video and deep analysis of the poor state of the materialistic wealthy West .... and through to the way to know what is going on so we can overcome and have true love of God.
Bishop Baron has breathed new life into this gospel in a way that I have never heard before and I will never experience it the same again. Loved the Trinity connection to the healing ritual and the invitation to evangelized. Thank you, once again, for your inspiring words!
I felt the same way and I was in tears at some point, especially where Bishop Barron was visibly shaking to emphasize his message. I felt blessed in a deeper way (at last!) and hope that I too could help contribute in the call to evangelize. Thank you for your comment, Daniel Barica! Thank you, good Bishop Barron!
Being opened to hearing can do amazing things. I remember when I wasn’t sleeping well, and decided to go to church before the early mass. I was sitting, listening to morning liturgy of the hours. The words were so beautiful, inviting, and welcoming of the new day. I didn’t forget those beautiful hymns and psalms. They would call me back as I made an effort to go and listen more. I finally
purchased my own Christian prayer book, and I’m learning morning and evening prayers now. The words don’t rest with me as they did when I just sat and listened (I’m busy flipping pages), but at least I’m no longer wishing I knew how to pray those beautiful prayers.
Thank You, Bishop Barron
Protestant-ish video title + Bishop Barron's amazing insight = maximum clicks. And those clicks were all worth it. The good Bishop was totally on point calling out the "I do me and you do you" mentality that is constantly foisted upon us by everything from our non-Catholic friends to our favorite media. Having and respecting other people's freedom is not bad, but it is certainly not good enough for God. Sadly, my "crowd" is pretty much indoctrinated in that mentality, so I'll have to work on that.
PS: The Jesus-plug analogy really fits well with the concept of the Eucharist. It just works!
Oh Lord Jesus, let me always hear your voice and speak your words with joy.
Another impact has come into me…
I will always be more attentive to what I listen to Before I plug my earphones on!
Thank you Bishop Barron. 🙏🏼✝️😇
Love how he brings scripture to life. I need it.
Lord Jesus open my ears to hear your word. Amen 🙏🏽
Thank you Bishop Barron and God Bless you 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️

I have. For some time now. Struggling, straying but can't give up. Please pray for me.

God Bless you all I love you and have a bless full night
A wonderful sermon again! All of us have become deaf to the Lord’s word, and my prayer is that we open our ears and spread the word of our God ever so slowly so that the “deaf” may hear. Thank you Bishop Barron for another wonderful sermon.
Good afternoon 🌷pray for me father so I can devote my self to Mary pure heart & help my family and society.

Bishop Barron, you are so compelling. I can see the force of Christ in you every time you speak. May the Holy Spirit be upon you always!
I LOVE this "plugging in" analogy! Growing up, I had catechisis with a Franciscan Friar who explained the Church as like a "Socket Man" and even devised a lamp apparatus to plug in lights or take them out! Brilliant!🥰😌
Thank you for sharing your faith and scholarship with all!
Wow. I really liked this.
The use of the Holy Trinity explained in healing this man was a personal awakening for me. I’ve heard the passage many times before and your explanation added great richness to it. Many thanks
Please consider actually reading the Bible and YOU will finally realize that you do have much more to understand from God Himself!
@@karinecarde1254 did you mean to insult me as part of your reaching out?
@Thy word is light if you didn’t insult people you might have more than 277 followers. Ask your mother about your approach. She should be able to set you straight.
I have listened to Jesus or the Church among eight years and the final conclusion is that we cannot set anything against His plan.
Every day I listen to Bishop Robert Barron. He is a man that preach the gospel and the truth. God bless this man. He is extraordinary and have a great way to explain the Jesus way and prophets and the gospels in a way I haven’t heard before. 🙏🏻🕊💖 Thank you Bishop Robert Barron you are unique 🙏🏻
Bishop Barron, you are a gifted speaker and preacher. May God bless you. 🙏
Thank you Bishop Barron for your great sermon today. In today's culture I think we are frightened by silence and we keep blocking it out with different forms of noise. So it's so easy to make ourselves deaf to the voice of God in our lives and it does courage to turn off our devices. But it's so worth it when we do.
Thank you Bishop Barron for this inspiring homily.
He won't stop talking!
An outstanding sermon, one of the Bishop's best I think, which is saying something.
Can we the people make Bishop Barron the Pope now? HE is the Pope the worlds needs
Can't be an American Pope. Never has been.
@@rhwinner and pope Francis is alive small detail
Let Bishop Barron be Bishop Barron as it is. God has gifted him to this work. If He has other plans, then the Spirit of the Lord will drive that. We need not assume anything more.
Mother Theresa once said: « Souls of prayer are souls of great silence. » In this man’s ever present silence from deafness, God spoke, and His word had curative power. Bless you, mother Theresa.

I've come to thoroughly enjoy the "deeper meanings" Bishop Barron draws out from the Gospel - so many acute observations which would otherwise be missed if not explored so intentionally and conscientiously. Thank you Bishop Barron for proclaiming "Ephphatha!" to our unhearing ears!
A focus on the highest is not easily swayed by the depths of society!
