This week we enter into the great season of Advent. Our first reading from the prophet Isaiah describes how every nation streams towards God’s holy mountain. As you enter the Advent season, think about this holy mountain. Is the mountain of the Lord higher than every other mountain for you? Do you stream toward it with your whole being?
Reading 1 – Isaiah 2:1-5
Psalm – Psalms 122:1-9
Reading 2 – Romans 13:11-14
Gospel – Matthew 24:37-44
Every now and then @BishopBarron offers a wonderful commentary on "The Crown" https://youtu.be/MqEFIc7aXQQ Here he is on a lesson about the primacy of Grace
This is brilliant from @BishopBarron, especially point 3 on dumbing down the faith! https://twitter.com/lourdes_leigh/status/1204380133265686534
@BishopBarron Very powerful reflection — especially since this morning, I said let’s read Bishop Barron’s Advent Reflection to 3 of my 5 kiddos. Well, it couldn’t have been more powerful of a reflection, especially for me!
When my heart hurts I listen to 20 minutes of @BishopBarron and then most often I find that I feel better afterwards
