  • 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.

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.

      @@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.

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.

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!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
