  Thank you, Bishop Barron. What I love about you is that you represent what I love about Catholicism: Truth, Love, and Beauty. May the Lord continue to bless you!

  I like the part where Bishop Barron says that Jesus wants to move into the whole house. I live by myself. When I talk to my plants or think about things out loud, Jesus Christ is there, listening, too. He's already moved in. Thank you Bishop Barron.

  I have learned more about my faith, the Gospels, and Jesus’ love for all of us from Bishop Barron over the past six months then I have from all my faith formation growing up. He is a true evangelist for our times. God bless him and his continued mission. ❤️🙏

  Dear Lord in Heaven, help us to “accept the fact that we have been accepted, even though we are unacceptable”, and guide us to love our brothers with such same mercy, to the eternal glory of Your name.

  This really resonates with me. When my grown children started verbally abusing me in a very narcissistic manner, I eventually responded by cutting contact and seeking professional therapy and spiritual help from clergy. My Catholic therapist, who was experiencing similar abuse in her own family, counseled me to simply apologize for “hurting” them and to stay away from reacting to any baiting behavior. This seemed counter intuitive to me but I followed her direction and was able to reestablish connection and learned how not to take the bait when it comes. Mercy was the key to love. It may not be easy and may seem counter intuitive, but I learned how to say “interesting” or “ok” when confronted with negative remarks or confrontational viewpoints to avoid fruitless debates and unyielding opposition.
