Christ Can Heal Us - Bishop Barron's Sunday Sermon

Friends, the Gospel for this Sunday is one of Jesus’ best-known parables: the story of the Good Samaritan. Karl Barth, who learned it from the Church Fathers, taught that every parable of Jesus, at the deeper level, is finally about Jesus himself. The parable of the Good Samaritan is a good example of this principle; it is fundamentally about Christ healing fallen humanity.

I am a 77 year old cradle Catholic and this was the most informative and inspiring homily I have ever heard about the parable of the Good Samaritan. You are a brilliant man and a gifted and blessed speaker.

[eukw]

I cannot emphasise how much your homilies are critical to my faith and formation as catholic. Thank you bishop Barron and word on fire team. God bless always.

I am crying with joy because no one has ever brought Jesus’s teaching of the Good Samaritan to my ear like Bishop Barron. May God keep blessing you and word on fire institute. Plus welcome to MN.

This was a beautiful, inspiring homely. Everyone has heard the story of the Good Samaritan… however … this was the REAL in-depth meaning of the Good Samaritan story. The story is so much more beautiful and inspiring
when these details are explained.♥️✝️

Bishop your homilies, your arguments, and your teaching has changed my whole life in my 60s, I wish I'd had the opportunity to be taught my faith like this in my youth. Thank you, please pray my children will return to God

I told to 3 of my best friends: "Would you like me to show you the future Pope?" When they agreed, I sent them one of the bishop Barrons video.
His homilies helped me a lot in my preachings.
In adding to this story, the oldest city in the world (Jericho) had 27 foundations. It means that it was 26 times tottaly destroyed. Great homily!
God bless!
EDIT: Jericho is 230 m below the sea, and Jerusalem is 830 m above.
So it is height difference of slightly more than 1 km.
God bless!

Just when you think you’ve been a Catholic guy for a long time teaching catechism and you know the parable - thank you Bishop Barron. “ Going down to Jericho from Jerusalem”.

Thank you Christ Lord for being our saviour. Thank you Bishop Baron for proclaiming the Word of God. Peace be with you, Amen.

[rogerjones]

At Mass, I "switched off " when it came to the "good Samaritan." Thinking, I have heard this story so many times over the years. Thank you Bishop Barron for your brilliant interpretation of this parable . Lesson learned!

Thank you, Bishop Barron, for helping me come closer to Christ! Your sermons have a clear and honest message that have helped me understand Him (as everything leads to Him in the end anyway) much better.
God bless you, Bishop!

[lauraabrodsky]

Outstanding! I love how Bishop reads the Words and explains them relative to our role as instruments of The Church. God Bless Him and Praise God for the perfect model, our Jesus. 🙏🙏🙏
