- Friends, we come to the wonderful Feast of the Epiphany and the great account in the Gospel of Matthew of the journey of the three magi. This marvelous, puzzling story, which has so beguiled the poets, artists, and preachers over the centuries, bears a very profound theological truth, and it has to do with the relationship of the national and the transnational.

Just sitting in a humble line for confession in South Florida: between an older Hispanic woman and a Korean woman about my age as a Haitian mother dragging her two truculent teenage sons into the line. We each smiled at each other knowingly; we must have all had the same maternal experience that also transcended our native languages. It was such a delightful and humble little moment.
God’s gift of humor. Seriously.
Sounds fulfilling. I do wish my spouse could take an interest in Catholicism like myself - but being Chinese born and raised, she is spiritually ambivalent & dismissive towards organised religion.
@@DartmoorAR The CCP is their organized religion.
Beautiful mothers ❤ love from Liverpool England
@@DartmoorARPray for her daily! And Catechesis gentle catechesis framed in growing together in love and connection.
God Bless you!
Amen!!
Bishop Barron your such a wonderful speaker. I just love listening to your sermons. God Bless
Bishop Barron reveals so much to us about the transcendent nature of Jesus Christ. At 55, I am currently in RCIA, and I tell everyone that I am a Bishop Barron Catholic!
Congrats on being in RCIA. That's funny you're a Bishop Barron Catholic. Just be careful not to put too much of your faith in Bishop Barron, meaning don't take him for granted.
I am 54. Amazed at how he makes it so interesting and "understandable". Raised Catholic but didn't really start paying attention until about 5 years ago. Never too late I guess. Be well.
Awesome, parkersmithphoto. Good for you. It is never, ever too late to find your faith. Bishop Barron is an amazing & gifted disciple. I’ve grown to love his words & message(s). Keep going 🙏👏
Hey Psrker, please help your fellow Bishop Barron Catholic in need😋 I'm actually a cradle Catholic, but God used BB to bring me back from atheism some years ago.
really good one this week. thank you
It makes me reflect on the INTERNATIONAL MASS that is celebrated in LOURDES. When you look around you & see people from all over the world. It is this very EMMANUEL, Our Lord Jesus that draws great crowds of people to come together to PRAISE & WORSHIP & GIVE THANKS to God.🙏
Absolutely. My mom (North Idaho Swiss/ German) and my mother in law (Mexican immigrant in California) have absolutely nothing in common. But they can say a rosary together.
I have witnessed Lourdes mass and rosary, it is indeed universal, to attend mass and pray rosary in different y languages.
Another great sermon from the Bishop.
We are the Universal church, the body of Christ.
Let us all radiate God's love for the world to see.
Great comment ✨⭐🌟👍
a masterpiece of a homily
Indeed✨⭐👍
"...King of Peace who draws all of us together." Beautiful homily..thank you, Bishop Barron.
*"Jesus ... the king who's like a star that hovers over all of us, that we can all see together. That's the genius of the Catholic Church."* (11: 00 - 11: 09)
Amen 🙏🏼
That was pretty good ngl
What an incredible analogy, one that rings truth like a bell. I will definitely be repeating this to my RCIA class today.
Amen. These Homilys are really enriching to add on to my Spiritual life
Peace🕊 to the one searching for the Truth.
I am blessed along with all conscious Catholics to be part of this transcendent family under the Kingship of the ONE God. Praise be to Him!
I always long to listen to Bishop Barron's sermon. Greetings and prayers from Pondicherry, India
As usual, an excellent homily-affecting. Thank you Bishop Barron for making us understand the meaning if the Epiphany.
I thank God for giving us Bishop Robert Barron and the Word on Fire Institute. The enlightening words of Bishop Barron's sermons, the beautiful "Cathedral in Print" and all the videos and books that are there for us to help us understand our role and how to act in the theo-drama.
I agree 100%. The videos are superb.
Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ. King of all Kings. Lord of all Lords.
Our Savior.
Amen.
Amen 🙏
God Bless you Bishop Barron and thank you for sharing your vast knowledge so we may draw closer and closer to our King.
Catholicism certainly means Universalism. It's astounding.
Greetings from Lithuania🌿
I'm not catholic, I wouldn't say I belong to any denomination and if anything I lean toward more protestant ones. I just want to hear messages that share truth, and I've yet to hear one of Bishop Barron's that don't do that. I always look forward to listening to his sermons. They are always Christ centered, and that's exactly how they should be. Sermons should not be self-help presentations that are sprinkled with truth. When sermons are written in a robust way that presents Christ at the center, those are the most helpful for the human condition. And Bishop Barron always does that. God bless you.
And from South Africa... we say thank you Bishop Barron for this beautiful message. The oneness we as Catholics share, is mystical and wonderful in itself... one lovely family following The Star, Jesus Christ!
God bless Mother Church.
Happy and blessed New Year 2024 to you 🌲🕯🕯🕯🔔
Thank you Bishop Barron.
This homily should be posted in all media outlets in the world and proclaimed from every pulpit no matter the cleric presiding 🙏
謝謝您,偉大的主教!
Bishop Barron from your mouth to the ears of all the warring countries. If only fellow Catholics would accept this message instead of running down our Pope and dividing our religion. Peace in 2024
This pope, will never earn my respect as Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict had.
They were GREAT POPES and were respected by Catholics and non .
May they rest in peace
What great analogies to help us understand the Star of Bethlehem and the 3 Magi by Bishop Barron. May the whole world come together to receive this Incarnation of God's Word, Love and Peace. Amen! (🇸🇬 from Singapore with ❤)
@@russellmiles28613 gifts is the inference. 😁
@@russellmiles2861I think the church drawn this number “3 kings” from the 3 gifts presented. In Asia prior to the Vatican II, this feast also calls the feast of 3 kings. In Việt Nan, many people are still calling this feast is the feast of 3 kings. You, me and the brother/sister from Singapore make up the “3 kings” to follow the star of Christ Jesus. Happy traveling home to our father house. 🙏😁👍
Thanks, I like that point of view.
A great sermon Bishop
"A star shall come forth out of Jacob,
and a scepter shall rise out of Israel."
I pray that he will bring more and more people of today together🙏❣😃✌ Thank You Bishop Barron
me too!
Beautiful sermon, Bishop - and timely!!! I pray the world gets to see or come to understand this! I'm certain the Lord doesn't care what country we are from, nor does he care what religion we call ourselves - IF we love God and our brothers and sisters!!! God knows our souls from every angle, and His memory of our every THOUGHT is in PERFECT fidelity!!! Thank you, Bishop!!!
Thank you bishop , I'm going to try and find a spiritual director soon I'm not sure what is going on I'm me but all I can think of is father GOD ,I love it
Yes! Jesus and the Church belong to all nations …and both genders. May all be represented in our synods.✝️✨🥰
From Australia. Thank you Bishop, very thought provoking you have illuminated the Magi for me. God bless.🙏🏻💕
You are an oratory genius, Bishop Barron! What an illuminating sermon. Thank you. We know from infancy that the three wise men, the three kings followed a star to find Baby Jesus in a stable. But never did I understand the significance of they leaving their own countries to find this little king of the Jews. And the internationality of the Catholic Church begins with these magi following a star to find the Light of the World. You have enlightened me with your words, yet again and I am always happy to pass on the wisdom I have learnt from you. Go raibh míle maith agat!
Jesus Christ ❤
Thank you
Thank you Bishop Barron ✝️🕊️🙏
Thank you for that wonderful epiphany.

Bishop Barron, I need to speak with you. I am an evangelist artist who has been opposed for standing for God’s word. I would love nothing more than to have a conversation with you. My Mom introduced me to your work. Please like this comment so Bishop sees this
Blessings Be! Thank you Bishop Barron!! Amen Amen 👼🏼We are all one in Christ ✝️

Listening to Bishop Barron's wonderful sermon from Argentina.
The Oracle of Delphi also told of the coming of Jesus, not just the Jews. The Three Wise King are celebrated in Spain as they reckoned its time frame with their movement to have arrive with gifts and blessings. Thank you father, for the stories we become with. Only Compassion, transcending as the resurrection, giving oneself and yet holding the whip is something many can balance with as we do everyday in deep, thank you father. Amen 💐💐💐How Godly!
Wow that makes so much sense thank Thank you
Greetings from Southern Oregon USA, another beautiful sermon, thank you Bishop Barron✝️🎊🙏❤️

An important message. We must let Christ unite us and leave us all of our preoccupation and priorities. Thank you Bishop Barron!
Amen
This is a wonderful homily. Thank you, Bishop Barron. I go to 11:30 Mass on Sunday after reading the readings and Gospel from your email, along with the Daily Reflection which I enjoy each day. Then listen again at Mass along with my parish priest's homily but look forward to hearing you before I go to sleep. ..you are my bedtime treat. Wonderful words to go to sleep by. God bless you.

Unity in diversity ✅✅
Amen
Remain blessed Bishop
❤
And you too ❤🙏
Dear Bishop, I vote that this is one of the best sermons from you. I am from Malaysia.
Epiphany is a great celebration, demonstrating there's so much more to the Christmas story that's worth extending the celebration.
I like the idea of a start that shines over all the nations of the world. And in the Light of Christ, we find the King Who truly brings peace and joy to all Who recognize His presence and come to worship Him.
When Bishop Barron mentioned the Synod, I thought about World YOuth Day, and I'm glad he mentioned that next. I have so many powerful memories of my experience at World Youth Day in Panama, which was 5 years ago this month. We came bringing aspects of our unique national identities, and joining together as One Church.
In some respects, Epiphany connects with Pentecost, because Christ truly came to save all people of the world, and we, the faithful, are called to carry the message to all the world.
So even though this year's Christmas Season is too short, we have some wonderful to carry forth from it.
I had an experience of this last year. I am Anglican, my wife Catholic (don't worry I checked she was actually a believer before I asked for her hand ;) and we were living in Edinburgh at the time. I wanted to visit St. Paul and St. Georges Church, which is just around the corner from St. Mary's Cathedral. I entered and sat down in the former... everyone was white British (I am not upset about that, I'm not racist) but in the capital of Scotland I couldn't help feel this church, however excellent the teaching is, it still wasn't a house for the nations. I got up and went to St. Mary's. It was a beautiful mix of so many nationalities all sitting under the same cross. Teaching wasn't up to much sadly, (Bishop Barron is truly exceptional) but in that place a lifetime memory was etched in my mind and something of what the Kingdom of God is supposed to look like was shown me.
Maravillosa explicación. Gracias Padre Barron.
Thank you Bishop Barron for sharing about the king of kings. Jesus Christ. , how the star was a sign to those who knew that someone special was being born a new King . They the three wise men noticed the Star ⭐ . WOW! Look ! Someone is coming we must go check on this person. And acknowledge Him. Truly inspiring to them from within their spirit as well. They drop everything they were doing to seek after this sign where He is located. Men of knowledge educated . Wise. I listened to you with a different perspective. It was beautiful . As the stat over sees the planet Earth and this person will over see the kings of the Earth Kings . That's so wonderful simple explanation . As a sign to say. King of the Universe , Catholic Universal Church . Truly amazing Church . As the Star is on the Christmas tree. The tree of life of earth. Rooted in faith. Ornaments that share lights on it the orange s and fruit s and spices of life . Fabric and metals ceramic s of children s artwork. Photo s of our family and friends . Even of little earth ornaments of planets how wonderful is that as a sign to US. Thank you for sharing this video today . As I took was inspired to write my thoughts too. Joyful and I saw a Christmas tree Star it was so beautiful to me it stayed in my mind as it was shown to me on a TH-cam greeting and message of a spiritual journey . The Star lingered brightly in my mind. , and you confirmed it . Truly amazing GRACE for me. God's gift to me also. For today! Sunday morning gift of the Magi . How wonderful is that! God bless you Bishop Barron for your ministry.
Very nice the example of today's people going to see another country's President 😁 . *THANK YOU*
Dearest Bishop Robert Barron,
How are you?
The Sunday sermon today is very inspiring and refers to the three wise men which means the Epiphany, and is celebrated after the Christmas season (closed). The three MAGI brought gifts when they visited the infant Jesus because of their envision of the baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist. As I remember the infant Jesus was born without sin but He became sinful for us and bore our sins in His body on the cross (2 Corinthians 5:12- 21). I believe the Epiphany is not only just a voice in the hamburger's bear feet (misused) but signifies the calling of the chosen few like wise men and it's an invitation to anyone and everyone around the world to follow Christ (unless choose to follow hamburger's feet). I traveled from the East to seek God as my star salvation. My journey being a part of the Three King Gifts (Matthew 2: 9-11) wasn't easy because opening the treasure has a special symbolic meaning. I accept and justify that Jesus is the king of the Jews, Jesus is the son of God and Jesus' Mortality. I faced difficult trials as I encountered Jesus Christ with a different identity to bring people to His Father. My duties (a battling) are to help the Pope and the bishops to teach, sanctify (to make sacred hamburger feet), and govern the People of God because they have authority and power given to them by Jesus Christ, beginning when they were received by St. Peter and the other Apostles, as well as to keep the priest in our parish church to bury the dead this coming week and forever. I find my peace in them (the lover of hunger and poverty). I pray for you and offer (the whole envelope) my life to the Infant child of Jesus with thanksgiving, joy, praise, and worship through Jesus Christ, the rising star here on Earth. Please, pray for the Dreger family here in WA. Happy Feast of the Epiphany. God bless you all.
The Holy Family, pray for us.
The Virgin Mary, pray for us.
Joseph Most faithful, pray for us.

Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for us.
Jesus, I trust in You!!!

Salvation for all...Revelation indeed .
I love the story of the Magi. It is recorded only in the Gospel of Matthew but it gives full validation to a Messianic prophecy in Micah 5:2, which would otherwise still be unfulfilled. The story is also full of fascinating clues for any history detective as to what really happened in the Middle East under an emerging Roman empire around the time of Jesus' birth.
We are all in the pit together, contemplating the Star
The world was way more international at the time of Jesus then we realize 🤷♀️⭐️🙏🏻✝️
