What rich conversation! Love the insertions of French, Latin, Spanish in the conversation! Thanks bishop Barron for not dumbing down things for us Catholics and making this available to the masses.
Puts me in awe of the treasure that is the Catholic Church....
A conversation with a Jesuit is ALWAYS rich food for the soul.
Nothing that Bishop Barron does is disappointing. Always worth listening to. This with Fr Joseph Fessio is another bonus. Thanks so much both of you. 🙏🧎🏽♀️
“What made you stay?” asks Barron. “I made a promise to God,” answers Fessio.

@@bman5257Truth isn’t a mortal sin.
@@Ladymar That’s assuming you’re right. And you don’t even know that even when it’s true, which your statement wasn’t, detraction can also be sinful.
I didn't want the interview to end. Thank you, Bishop Barron! - from South Korea
Over 35 years ago, a young priest, Father Barron, led me to my final decision to join the Catholic Church where we met weekly in the basement of St. Paul of the Cross Church in Park Ridge, IL, with other RCIA candidates. Fast forward 20 years to Ann Arbor, Michigan where my husband , me, and my young family first met Fr. Fessio and eventually he became a family friend and mentor to my then high-school -age children after we took the leap of faith and moved to Naples, FL, where we were part of the growing university families of Ave Maria University. What an absolute treat for me to see these two men who are so important to my (and my family's) Catholic life and spiritual journey sitting across from one another exchanging ideas- marvelous! We serve a GOOD GOD!
That's incredible! Isn't it splendid the way life works?
Thank God for this conversation, for both men, and for Ignatius Press and Word on Fire, for serious thinking about serious matters.
Isn't it finally time we had an English speaking Pope who has the eloquence of Bishop Baron?
When Jesus decides to, he will select one who speaks English to apply Luke 10:16 to.
He speaks English fluently!
That's a change. In the mid 80s, 1980s that is, Brother Emmanuel by his research said the end times were near! Now its the Tower of Babel. No horsemen there.@@CatholicDefender-bp7my
All Catholic Highschool administrators should watch this. Very important and wonderful interview. Blessings to you both.
Amazing! These two minds engaged in dialogue that makes the faith, tradition, and Church history come alive! Fr. Fessio’s mind is so SHARP and CLEAR at his age.
A few years ago I was staying at a old backpackers in a small tourist town and as I was laying in bed, with the light on, watching TV, a black circular darkness popped up at the bottom of the bed. It grew larger and darker and the sense that I got was total doom and destruction and it felt like I had no hope at all.
Something, a voice, a feeling, I can't really explain what it was but my being told me to call out "Jesus Christ save me". Just as this darkness was about to attack me I tried to say what I was being told to say and all I could get out was "Jesus" in desperation. Immediately this darkness was stopped from attacking me and it disappeared.
It's true, calling out the name of Jesus can save you from anything- alien abduction, demonic entities, curses, witchcraft etc
Thank You, Bishop. You have been a major force in My journey to find God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. You are truly a 21st Century Treasure. God Bless You for Your service to The Lord 🙏
Thank you for this interview with Fr Fessio who has lived his vocation so well!!!😊🙏🏻
Thank you Fr. Fessio for Ignatius Press
Father Fessio, a kind intellectual giant and renaissance man. Highly unusual these days.
Father Fessio: what a gift to the American Church. He’s always an interesting interview, TY for having him.
Thank you both but Thank you Fr Fessio for your years of dedication to the Church. god be with you both!
thank you Bishop Barron and Fr. Joseph.....the Catholic church will survive any test of time because of all faithful followers of Jesus Christ all these years (only 2 thousand years & more ago)....I enjoy leveling up with my Catholic faith. I am learning alot. Thank you again. God bless.
A faithful Catholic AND Jesuit? Must have insane courage (and the ability to dodge bullets). Respect!
A voice crying in the wilderness!
😂
well, yesterday i watched a movie about a favorite Saint of meins: St. Ignatius of Loyola! he is a Saint that is grand! His work had to be attacked by the Satan. but there has to be holy fruit of this great Saint!
I don't understand what you mean by catholics vs Jesuit. Is the religious order rebellious in history? Why so, since it was founded by a Saint.
@@Eserr7856 just read a little the history of the Jesuits. They had an incredible story full of saints and good deeds. It is just since the 60’s and 70’s with a few exceptions, that they are the most “modern” arm of the church, with some really rotten apples.
Thank you, Bishop Barron, for this great talk with Fr. Fessio. Best greetings from Germany.
Wow! He met all the Catholic greats of the last century. Amazing!
amazing ❤️
God’s been good to this man. I couldn’t believe that he’s in his 80’s.
St. Thomas Aquinas to batting averages. Wonderful conversation. Much appreciated. Both of these shepherds are a treasure.
Intellectual meeting of minds. I love this. May God preserve the churches Intellectuals.
Father Joseph and Bishop Barron.... please put the world on fire...give talks...the talks you heard and learned from those Church intellects. Share what you possess in your heads, minds and conscience with us.
Came across this while it was in progress - what a gift to the Church and the everyday world both of these men are. Superlative conversation.
Two of my faves!! What a gift! 💝
So glad you two got out of baseball ⚾️🎉🙏🏻✨
Delightful conversation, I only hope to have friendships like this in my life before I die.
From Lincoln Nebraska: thanks for showcasing the faith at its best.: You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all. Can we move on to the Bob Dylan interview? " ...So, let us not talk falsely now, The hour is getting late""
I could find the RSV Bible only in the Ignatius Press!! Thanks Father Fessio!!
Why is the RSV Bible unique compared to the New American Bible? Thank you
Amazing interview! Thank you Bishop for introduce us to this great priest
What a refreshing video, thank you both from the bottom of my heart. Divine Providence bless you both.
Thank you for this interview providing us with a synopsis of the recent history and tradition of the Church. This way we don't lose this important part of our heritage. I'm so glad and grateful to God for you both and for all these wonderful people who have served the Church through the years 🙏🏽
To begin-it is already a thrill to anticipate any activity of Bsp. Barron whether it be a homily, a talk, a conversation, an interview because the very first impression, his being scholarly makes you feel, you are sure not a second is going to be wasted. But having another person with an impressive personal history of his journey to priesthood-wow, it was a treat there really is no price for, to get insights into the state of the catholic church at different times! This Bishop doed not fail to move me in different ways and to have a conversation with a priest with such an interesting background made it worthwhile to spend time with them! If I want to learn things about my faith, the catholic church, my personal relationship with God, no sweat, I look for Bishop Barron in Word on Fire or wherever he is "speaking." I was never disappointed because he always managed to reach the very core of my being. Thank you Lord for the gift of this person. You must be so very pleased with him because he has made you known and he continuosly taught us how to give glory to You!
many thanks. a wonderful interview. i am 83 and you have told me to read these giants!
“I made a promise to God.”
Brilliant ,wonderful Conversation Revealing the marvelous minds in charge of the Catholic Faith and Directors along with the Grace and Mercy of God. Thanks
Oh my gosh, what a fascinating conversation.....thank you!
Nothing I’ve heard since the resignation of Pope Benedict has given me greater hope than Fr. Fessio’s prediction that Lubac, Balthasar, and Ratzinger will prove to be for our century what the Cappadocians were for theirs.
So much depth, beauty and richness.

The best discussion on issues of Catholic church

My Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner. …..This is the Jesus prayer, pray it day and night.
Amen 🙏
Beautiful discussion. Thank you! 🙏🏼
This is a phenomenal interview with someone formed around Vatican II. More of these interviews would be greatly welcomed
Bishop Barron. Thank you for the excellent conversation! More of the same please!!!!
Re-listened to this. Both very smart men.
Thank God we have the internet.
Great. Now I need to start reading Balthasar
God Bless you Gentlemen, wonderful.
Thank you for Ignatius Press
I enjoyed every minute of thee conversation too! Thank you Fathers.
Bishop Barron as Pope, that would be something :)
God willing 🙏 🙌
Bishop Barron being called to serve as "Pope Aquinas the First"
Thank You So Much Bishop Barron and Father Fessio , both Brilliant! Thank You,Lord for them… from the Philippines🙏🙏🙏
Good insights. I was taught by the Jesuits at Marquette and got a great education but agree they have gone too far on social justice. Jesus told us to feed the hungry and clothe the naked. He never said go to the government and tell them to do so.
Interesting talk.May God bless these two great men.
Great interview ...very interesting to listen to ....thank you Bishop Barron and Fr Joseph Fessio 🙏🙏🙏
A fiat to God will bring you to people and places that you will be led to by following Christ
What an adventure
Graced filled conversation
Excellent conversation, thank you to you both! We need more like this kind of program.
Amazing what the church has lost in so few decades without a single war or catastrophe.
Imagine all Europe losing their recipe for their beers or wines or cheeses.
They have lost the equivalent in theologians. We are left with American cheese and Velveeta. Ok, queso, too.
this is so real and sad
This was really wonderful, a tonic for our times and a gentle rebuke of the on both the extremes of Conservative and Liberal
Absolutely marvelous.
A delight to listen to, although a lot of it was over my head! But makes we want to delve into these great theological minds and their work.
Fabulous talk❤
Wow what a special interview. So wonderful to live in the circle of these great Catholic influencers of the Church for an hour through Fr Joseph Fessio. Any further exploration of this trio would be appreciated, especially anyone who knew them. Which Balthasar book is good to start with?
Thank you very much B.R.B (( do what ever u like but don't harm any one )) 🥰⚘️💕
I’m not Catholic, but I do like the Cappadocian Fathers analogy. I do they are indeed canonized as I love De Lubac’s book on Origen.
That was riveting! Thank-you both!!
Evaluating and making a vow between 18-21 or so, of that magnitude, can’t be known and right for all men who take the vow at that age, who are still developing into adulthood. Many can’t possibly know who or what they want between 18-21. Some can! But I give a lot of grace to any Priest who changes their minds.
All of your classmates were leaving the priesthood. What made you stay?
- I made a promise to God.
Great interview. My respect for both these men went up three notches.
Razinger ( pope Benedikt) is a wonderful holy man in every way❤️
Father Fessio I can give you a clue a Father for USA in southern part of USA and Mexico you can mention is Father Kino and his ministry and mission work was very vast expanding from Mexico to Texas to Arizona to New Mexico , sharing the word of God with Mexican national s with Native American s tribes in USA and with Mexican American communities with other cultures in those early 1800 s in our history . He left his presence known throughout this areas . The desert white Dove of the Desert Church in Tucson is called is actually San Xavier Catholic Church on Tohono Odtham Reservation in outskirts of City of Tucson. And also along the Kino road areas where he traveled little chapel s existed for small communities at that time . He is Historical documented in books for any of your references or resources for research as well as website in our modern 2024 Time. Just a little knowledge I wanted to share for others to know we have Theology Father Kino in USA . I believe originally from Spain Spanish Europe education in theology. Traditional teachings . Bilingual in Spanish and English and maybe other languages Latin most likely as well . Thank you for letting me share in your discussion in this video . I was a CCD instructor for third graders for First holy Communion classes in two different churches as I moved due to my employment location and my children school location . It was definitely a beautiful experience to teach religion education to these age students in their sacrament years. I was eager to share my religion with them by prayers and life experiences of how God helped me in my school studies and family life and prayers for people as I had a calling to be a lay Third Order Carmelite in my City in Tucson AZ. My call to pray . Yes I was very involved with the church . Since an early age . So sharing my Faith with my friends and family and then with the children really helped me reach out to their parents and guardian s as some lived with grandparents . And at that time had father's in war conflict in another country . So they enjoyed prayers so much. Even parents attended my classroom to learn what their children were so excited about learning about Jesus Christ life and prayers . And blessed Mother Mary prayers as well . As they learned about holy eucharist and Jesus Christ name and body and blood is real and so important for their spiritual Life. Yes a terrific time in my life . I had to work on weekends so I had to discontinued my CCD classes due to supporting my family as a single mother. . But I still continued with my prayers as God leads me .
Waves of humility..
Excellent and enjoyable conversation!❤
Excellent as always!❤️🙏☘️
Went over my head but it was still enjoyable
I enjoy hearing "shop talk" among leaders in the Church. It's beautiful.
Wow I had no Idea who this guy was and then I find out he printed my Bible, ha ha. But for real the inclusion of beauty is such a major aspect of evangelization, I became interested and purchased my NRSV because I had a friend with one of Ignatius press’ fancy leather and gold leaf ones. So odd how just aesthetics gave me a whole new reverence for the book.
Thank you.
Great conversation all around.
Bishop Barron, I highly recommend that you consider responding to God's call of going on a thirty day retreat with Jesus....you will be very grateful you said "yes".... blessings.
❤❤❤
Lovely conversation bishop.
You and D.C Shindler introduced to me to Balthasar and its been wonderful.
I think you and Shindler could have wonderful dialogue with John Vervaeke and Iain mcgilchrist using Balthasar as a focal point
DC Schindler interview is scheduled for April 11.
wow
Excellent
Great conversation
Hi Bishop Barron's, and Fr Joseph ❤️

Wonderful interesting joyful informative ✝️❤️. Wish the visit was longer❣️
Thanks much for this video.
Great interview!
WOW that was great stuff you two guys awesome
Love you guys🤗
Amin
in nomine patris, et filii, et spiritus sancti, amen.
Great theological discussion, with an interlude into baseball. ⚾️
Wonderful conversation that filled my heart with joy until Father James Martin was mentioned and then dropped.
St Benedict was a great synthesizer...seems Ratzinger chose his papal name well...
Very interesting.
Hmmm... A person can be a musician and not be a composer, but instead can be a performer. The performer can take the composer's work, interpret it, and play it so that many more people can experience it, learn from it, and be inspired by it. Yet a composer did not create the music, as the notes (intervals) and rhythms (timings) already pre-existed and can be identified mathematically. The composer's imagination and training (simply) discovers a pattern of notes and rhythms and writes it down. Yet both the composer and performer are musicians, and both are needed. Similarity, in theological circles, there seems to be 'composers', such as the three focused on in this dialogue, and the 'performers' referred to in the [US]. Yet both types are theologians, and both are needed by His Church..
Would these fascinating anecdotes otherwise have been lost to time if not for this interview?
