Who Is God? - Bishop Barron's Sunday Sermon

Friends, on this Third Sunday of Lent, we have the privilege of reading one of the most important texts in the Bible: God addressing Moses from the burning bush. In this passage, the true God manifests his own identity: he is closer to you than you are to yourself, yet higher than anything you can possibly imagine. And he gives himself a name: “I Am Who I Am”—not a being among beings, but Being itself.

I am a Hindu from Calcutta, India, listening to Bishop Barron's videos since the last few days.
I don't know the exact English words, but it is a great experience to listen to Bishop Barron. 🙏

You know you are in a first class sermon when your bishop drops Latin flawlessly and it makes perfect sense.

You know what I really love about Bishop Barron’s sermons? He never says the obvious. All the churches and their pastors in my area are so simplistic it’s almost laughable. Almost everything they ever have to say amounts to some variation of “be nice” or “God loves you” or “don’t judge people” or “things will get better”. When I listen to Bishop Barron I always learn something.

Iam not Catholic but really enjoy listening to Bishop Barron. He has a special way of delivering the message.

God is "I am who I am".. a being and to be.) : a creator, provider, and protector. I surrender to your radiant flames.

[noelig]

God is closer to me than I am to myself.

Incredible!

The best word I know to describe God is ineffable. Creator, first cause. but not of the universe. Unknowable. Transcendent. Ultimate essence from which energy and matter come into existence.

[JanschelPagadoraChella]

"As God gets closer to you, you become more luminous, more beautiful, more radiant."

Beautiful sermon, I've felt that the beauty of seeing God and his hand in everything leads to joy in recieving each day as a gift but also humility in remembering we are all dependant upon His love for our continued existence.

Bishop Robert Barron: To be God is not to be this or that, up or down, here or there, big, small. *To be God is to be "to be."* (13: 47-57)

[rebeccakahn]

Listening to this sermon again after two years, I was struck by your eloquence and the absolute beauty of your homily. I feel the Lord God with me, about me, supporting me, and it is glorious and wonderful. Thank you, Sir, for all that you do to bring the beauty of God to His children. You will never know the immeasurable influence you have had in this world.

As a catholic, I wish we had mass like this man explains everything simply and clearly. Maybe more people would go to mass.

[anneturner]

Bishop Barron is tearing it up ! Where and who was I without him? Finally drinking in the beautiful faith. God bless this man.

[Thelnquisitor]

Igniting Homily, Bishop. May the rest we receive in The Lord be only out done by the fire he makes of our souls.

[marktaylor]

The most satisfying homily ever. Thank you.

[brendamyc]

So I wanna be like the bush! On fire with the love of God! 🔥♥️🥰

If my priest at my church as a youngster was this captivating, I would have kept my faith much longer. What an amazing sermon.

[ameyer]

The Latin was so good here. What a wonderful sermon. God who can’t be controlled/ contained or hidden from. What a blessing to be known by such a God. Thank you.
