The single biggest challenge of the Advent season is to feel our need for a savior. The truth is, we can’t solve our problem through an act of the will, because the perversion of the will is the problem. We need help. We need the intervention of a loving God who will shape us anew. We need a savior.

@WordOnFire @BishopBarron This is a must see! Thank you Bishop Baron! My husband and I thought our whole parish should see this. Thank you for the insight and inspiration.
@tracesoffaith While not the whole Bible (this first volume is the four gospels) I am a huge fan of the “added value” in the @WordOnFire Bible, with illustrations, sacred art, and reflections both modern and ancient.
