In today’s Gospel we hear the story of the rich young man who desires eternal life. We all have a hunger for God and goodness. Jesus teaches us that, in order to attain friendship with God we must be disciplined and must give up the things that keep us from satisfying our desire for God.

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
