Hearing the Voice of God

- Friends, the Book of Jonah is one of the shortest books of the Bible, yet it’s packed with profound truths about hearing and obeying the voice of God. On today’s episode of “The Word on Fire Show,” Brandon Vogt and I discuss this powerful little book.
A listener asks, why did Jesus show up when he did and not at a different point in time? What would the world look like had he showed up later, or not at all?

I am a 25 year old man who was raised Roman Catholic. I strayed from God in my adolescents. I have recently come back. I’ve always considered myself a seeker of truth and the further I sought truth, the more God became obviously true. I thank Bishop Barron because he is helping me on my path. God bless anyone that reads this, and I hope that if you haven’t found God he will allow himself to find you.
Thank you,❣️. I too, am a returning Catholic at age 75 yrs. I am so blessed to be drawn back to Jesus❣️. I thank The Blessed Virgin Mary❤🙏🙏🙏
Praise to the Lord for calling you back to himself! The Father embraces all of his prodigal children - of which I am one also. May God use you to bring others to the kingdom. And God bless you. 🙏❤️
Similar story to mine. 33 years old.. I was born again 2 years ago. Best thing ever happened to me
Alleluia! Praise the Lord! I love reading stories about returning to our Lord. God bless you all!
Welcome home!
We will miss you, Brandon. Thank you so much for all your years of work on the podcast.
As Chaldean/Assyrian Christian from Northern Iraq, we love this book and we fast for 3 days every year called Baotha or fasting of Nineveh followed by most Eastern Churches
What dates?
@@eliwithgod4848 It's Always 3 weeks before Lent, Monday to Wednesday, this year was January 22-24, 2024
Thanks! God bless you!

"God Has The Final Sayings. Amen."
We will miss you Brandon. You’ve been an awesome host. God bless you and your future endeavors.
I follow a few Catholic content creators, and recently quite a few videos have been popping up in my recommended about learning to listen to and interpret God's voice, at a time when it's precisely the kind of thing I need to hear
Brandon come back as soon as you can I will always miss (hey Brandon) god bless brother
Brandon, thank you so much for your work on this podcast. I have learned so much listening to your work with Bishop Barron. I'm so glad you aren't going too far away. May God bless you and keep you in your new role. ❤
Brandon, first I would like to thank you for this show, I have learned a lot from each episode and also wishing you many blessings from our Lord and Saviour and I am sure whatever new responsibility you assume you will shine in it as well. What is interesting is that we lose uninformed, week and confused catholics to others and what we receive in return are great, exceptional and faithful catholics from others. God bless everyone in Word on Fire and its listeners and viewers.
It’s how we feel and what we want that matters to me bishop Barron you are so much of what I need to hear from thank you so so much I take care of two devoted and both gifted of the spirit watching get older is easier cause of you bishop god my journey and he bless me with you
GOD Speed Brandon! Thank you for all your hard work , Ideas & contribution!. You will be missed!🥰🙏🙏🙏
Thank you, Brandon, for what you had and will continue to contribute towards this great program. May God bless you and Bishop Barron always !
This is awesome! Part of my Lenten promise this year is to prayerfully read through a chapter of the book of Jonah every day of Lent. Of course, since the book is only 4 chapters, I will have read it 10 times by the end of the 40 day season. Thanks to Bishop Barron and the Word on Fire team for another awesome production.
Thank you for this lovely show. We shall miss you, Brandon. All the best in your future role. You and Bishop are a joy and inspiration to listen to.
You have made your mark with your books and podcasts, etc. Brandon. You have shown what can be achieved with common sense and the absolute truth of Catholic beliefs that have prevailed for centuries with your actions and intellect. You have been the perfect foil for the inspired bishop. Deo Gratias!
,,SALUT PRIETENE BARRON,ISUS TE IUBEȘTE "!!!!!
God bless you Brandon. You are an absolute legend. I have profited so much from this show.
Thank you, Brandon!! Your work with Bishop Barron has catapulted my knowledge and my faith to areas previously unknown to me! I am so grateful to have found your work! Blessings on your new endeavors!
I thank you Brandon for pioneering Word on Fire show...the dynamic duo of the Catholic church. Do show up when the occasion permits... again thank you and Mabuhay
Thank you Brandon for all your work, how good to hear that you are going to stay and continue your work in _Word of Fire._ May the Blessed Virgin Mary hear your prayers.
Brandon! I object--am I allowed to object? You are a treasure, with a face for podcasts, not publishing :) God bless you and your beautiful family as you make this career/responsibility shift in the world of Word on Fire. I am going to miss you and thank you for all you've done, do, and will do for all of us! Peace.
Thank you, Brandon! Stay blessed🙏🏻
God bless you Brenden for the good times.. Long live word on fire.
Great messages!
And thank you, and bless you Bishop for all you do❤🙏🙏🙏
You'll be missed Brandon. I've always liked your voice, tone, how you spoke and annunciated words. I know that may sound trivial, but it was your literal voice, as well as your discussions with Bishop Barron that kept me plugged in. Hopefully Matthew has been gifted a pleasant "gift of gab" as well. 💜
Damn it, Brandon! I loved you on here!! God bless, man.
Thank you Brandon. all the best!
God Bless you Brandon and thank you for your hard work & effort in bringing us these faith filled & encouraging shows. Thank you Bishop and welcome Matthew Petrusek, love & prayers in Christ🙏

Thank you Brandon sorry to see you leave….all the best to you and yours .
Brandon, thank you and Peace be with you. Our first CDs didn’t work in Australia and I am forever grateful that you fixed that.
You have brought up the issues we need answers for in our journey. May yours be fruitful
Thank you Brandon, you will be missed!
I always loved your questions!
Excellent episode. Jonah is so short but so thought provoking- so many layers
It was nice seeing you Brandon Vogt, in every podcast! Waiting for the edition of your book selection!!! 💐💐💐💐
Word. I will miss you Brandon, please be joining the show occassionally when you can!
Thank you Brandon for your service. Bishop thank you for your witness
Thank you very much!
Brandon, thank you, God bless you, enjoy the change.
Dear Bishop Barron thank you for your explanations. I never thought about Jonah being saved from drowning...Regarding God's guiding a person and depression experience. Finding counseling help with Catholic faith background is almost impossible. Catholic charity is only funded by Catholic Church.
God Bless You Bishop!
May God continue to bless you Brandon as you focus on your other duties at Word on Fire. You've done such an excellent job and have blessed so many on their spiritual journey. I can testify to this personally as this podcast has been instrumental in my reversion back to the faith.
Will miss you Brandon. God bless you in all you do.
God bless Brandon!!!
Thank you Brandon for your excellent producing and hosting of the podcast! Always look forward to it. Best wishes as you focus on publishing. And of course a huge thank you to Bishop Barron and Matthew for continuing the podcast!
Thanks, Brandon, for all you have done to make this a great, helpful series. We will miss you and wish God's continued blessings on you and your family.
Brandon, thank you for everything you have done! Word on Fire was an important part of how I found my way to the Catholic Church. I expect to be confirmed into the faith this Easter. 🙂
Thank you Brandon. I’ve enjoyed your presence and leadership as you joined Bishop Barron on these WOF podcasts. BTW, I also followed your Burrowshire podcasts and speakers who joined you on those talks. Learned a lot about Catholicism. Thanks and best of luck and great blessings on your new endeavors on publishing side of WOF.
So glad that bishop baron has a peer to discus with. This is my favorite of his programs since brandon reminds him to simplify.
Thank you Brandon I really enjoy the show. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS ALWAYS 💞💙🙏
I could die singing to Godself how much i LOVE all of He . His Creation. I'm specially on never scape to all cleared
I know it will be boring to hear another "Thank you Brandon, " but best to you in your new role! I will miss hearing Bishop Baron asking about your beautiful family!
Thank you Brandon for all your hard work and dedication to this Podcast. God Bless you! I will miss your voice!
