Thank you Bishop Baron for your talk on the Holy Spirit. I talk to God, I talk to Jesus and pray to the Holy Spirit, but for the first time in my life I realized just now that God the Holy Spirit was always with me too. I love you. I pray for all our priest and religious.

Wow, Fr Barron is explaining everything I wish Id learnt growing up as a catholic. Coming back to faith after 20 years as an atheist feels like a homecoming. 🏠

@S L yes, now you mention it growing up, the faith was used as a rod of discipline in my home without explanation or emphasis on anything else. My journey was similar to yours (especially related to the mountain of philosophical reading and looking into the eastern traditions), the Catholic Church just seems like home.

I’m 40 years old and I’m having the same intelectual curiosity about the religion I grew up in (Catholic). I’m happy that I have the Holy Spirit guiding me in this path. It’s the best thing that has ever happened to me. I find myself searching every question I’ve ever had and now with the help of the internet, I’m able to find answers. I can say that my faith is greater than ever in my life.

I think I feel the presence of the Holy Spirit most apparent when I get the swell of emotion when I think of Jesus and God when I pray the Rosary. It is most powerful then, because I am actually weeping quite profusely. I've had people ask, what is going on, and I tell them it's quite simply the overwhelming feeling of love. When I pray the Rosary I am usually offering my sorrow to Jesus for all those people that do not believe or are committing horrible crimes against humans. I beg him to forgive them. Other times I may be walking along the streets, enjoying the sunshine and hearing the birds chirping, feeling a cool breeze, and I thank God what he made for my enjyment in that moment. I am grateful I was born a Catholic and my mother teaching me to have an intimate prayer relationship with Jesus, but for as long as I've known, even from childhood, I have always known that the Holy Spirit is always a breath away when I appreciate the nearness of God in his works.

The HOLY SPIRIT is not taught correctly by churches which convey a human -wrought made up belief. The HOLY SPIRIT (as taught by actual Jesus) is the conduit or pipe that connects to your soul and delivers sought DIVINE LOVE from your soul parent God into your soul. This Divine Love, the actual divine essence of God will(if sought enuf) will start incrementally transforming your soul to an IMMORTAL DIVINE type with a divine spark and awareness which it did not have originally. This is the actual truth and there are written documents and celestial -guided persons superior to the Bible to prove it. 😇🙏

Mu humble testimony: When I got my Confirmation, I was 24 or 26 ( I can’t remember exactly, sorry). I walked down the aisle fully connected that it would be the highlight of my whole life. And it was! 😍 Those 2 seconds when the bishop made the sign of cross on my forehead, I EXPERIENCED the most intense love and fire ( a fire hard to describe, a fire that didn’t hurt) I have ever had. Praise to God!

The Holy Spirit heals, sanctifies, gives comfort, brings tears of joy, and help us know the depth of the love of the Father, in order to give that love to others. The presence of the Holy Spirit transforms our life. Fills our void. Carries away our sorrow and afflictions. Helps us in hardships. I pray that everybody that reads this can receive the Holy Spirit, I pray you give your life to Jesus and surrender to Him, I pray God draws you into His loving embrace, it’s the best decision anyone can make ever.

A gust of wind is my reminder that the Holy Spirit lives within us…great peace!

@@michaelanderson4849 you need to take a more patient and humble stand in this life. Look, put it simply, only after you breath you last you will then know who is right and who is wrong about God. Before that happens, you should try to restraint yourself from so aggressively criticising others just because they think different to you.

The Holy Spirit is responsible for my conversion many years ago. He still remains very active in my life for which I am most grateful.

When I read about St. Maximilian Kolbe, I learned that he had prayed and studied many hours during his lifetime, asking to understand the Person of the Holy Spirit, and to understand the Holy Trinity. This lead him to contemplate and pray more deeply about the relationship, and meaning between the Spouse of the Holy Spirit, our Mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God to the Holy Spirit. St. Maximilian asked our Blessed Mother, "Who are you, Mary?" In an Icon of the Holy Family, we see Jesus, Mary and Joseph. Joseph being the Icon of God the Father. In this image of family, we see the Son, the Father, and the Mother between them. We see God the Father, God the Son, and Mary, who is, in essence, the Love between the Father and the Son in flesh and blood. Mary held the newborn Jesus, Son of God in her arms in adoration, looking lovingly down into the face of God her Creator, with Jesus looking up into the beautiful face of Love created between the Father and Son, that is, the "sigh" between them, in persona Mary. In my struggle to grasp and to understand the Holy Trinity, I am drawn more and more into the image of the Holy Family, and as I have learned from St. Maximilian Kolbe; I am asking, "Who are you Mary?" And, "Who are you Holy Spirit?" When I ask these questions, something rests on my heart, it draws me to the person and oneness of the Holy Family. Yet I can not find words to actually explain this to others. It is truly a mystery. I believe that when it is fully revealed to us, and we grasp it better, we will be overcome with an unspeakable awe. I believe that the Archangel Gabriel was given extraordinary grace to even pronounce "Full of Grace". The awe he experienced upon greeting Mary, was unspeakably profound.

I remember a brilliant local priest at my city, here in the Philippines, explaining that the Trinity is not like pantheism where each god can do what the others can't. The Trinity does not work like that; they are each a complete substance as there is, after all, one God. In Catholic school, I was taught that the Holy Spirit is God operating within us through our conscience and through the gifts that we have received in baptism.

The bishop is a good wordsmith.

This Word on Fire interview is EXCELLENT, imho...Although it was done 4 yrs ago, I haven't seen it before. What a find! Thank you both, Mr. Brandon & Bishop Barron. With your mentioning WonF new releases of books, I would like to mention one from your organization that means SO much to me: The HOLY HOUR: Meditations for Eucharistic Adoration, edited by Matthew Becklo, c 2022. It is this one that I would like to buy additional copies for gifts. This book includes Scripture, reflections by Bishop Barron & notable others, prayers & poetry by saints including St. Catherine of Siena + several of my favorites: Edith Stein, St. John Henry Newman, Bishop Fulton J. Sheen, & more, as well as recent Popes, & the Catechism. As if that were not enough, it is a soft leather like material w/BEAUTIFUL photography & graphics pages throughtout the book. If there were a place, I'd offer this as a book review...maybe Amazon! THANK YOU for this JEWEL of a publication! 🤗

From Lithuania With Love !!! One Love !!!

One Eastern Orthodox priest told it very bluntly and simply to me: The Holy Spirit is your life. What he of course meant is that it’s the divine life given to us through Christ, but still. Very elegant, very simple, very deep. That’s it and that’s sufficient for understanding this hypostasis of the Trinity I think

Awesome Quote Matej!!

The unmoved, the mover, and the way. If you view the 3rd Person within this framework, you will lay hold of how necessary and distinct each are, how united they act, sustain and renew all things.

God was knocking on my front door...and I never heard him. At 78 years of age, the Holy Spirit walked into me through the back door...and suddenly I was at peace! The feeling was overwhelming...Everything was OK! God became real in the sense that my life was in his hands. I felt love for those around me. I have become joyous...I have forgiveness in my heart. I went through the "formality" of being baptized 21 years ago...after I lost my son David Jr to cancer...But finally...finally, because of the Holy Spirit I have found God! It was ALPHA...the day we discussed the Holy Spirit...that made everything REAL!!!

O Jesus, Mary and Joseph teach us: Faith, Hope and Love. Ps 87:1, Jn 10:29 "For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God's sight. As it is written: "He catches the wise in their craftiness." 1 Cor 3:19 😇 St. Isidora please pray for us!

Bishop Robert Barron, please continue the good reflections and homily. Before listening to the Sunday mass, I listen to your gospel homily first for I want to fully undestand the deeper meaning of the gospel. I appreciate it so much. I always listen to you and the Marian Fathers of Divine Mercy. Amen

This stuff is simply beyond human logic. Thank you to the Good Bishop and so many more who try to teach us about this beautiful mystery of the Trinity

Being comicated doesn't make something great

Amazingly bright guy. I'm grateful for the depth of his understanding and for his sharing.

I've always thought about the Holy Spirit as the Person who's the dynamics of God calling himself within us. His own essence actively interacting inside of us, constructing us, guiding us, sharing himself on us, making us know of his presence. When I was a child I had an easy tendency to have a relationship with God, or at least being conscious of his presence, however when I grew up and went to college, obviously I started doubting the Church and just got away. But when I missed God and started feeling a void inside of me I returned to the Church and instinctively I somehow knew that I needed to call the Holy Spirit to reach Jesus and reach Jesus to return to the Father.

Bishop Barron all of your rich deep yet simple explanations of our catholic faith are so clear as you teach us Do not think that you do not have those who tune in because your presentations are truly helpful and listened to by millions.keep it up the FIRE IS GETTING HOTTER EVERY DAY.YOUR IN OUR PRAYERS.

Thank you Bishop Barron & thank you Lord for these Christian men 👍🏼

The Holy Spirit is in work in me.., the moment I detest my worldly attachement money, lust and power. I understand it now....and it's the best thing that happen to me. Being touched by the Power of the Holy Spirit!😍

Good talk... "The Divine Reality may be likened to the sun and the Holy Spirit to the rays of the sun. As the rays of the sun bring the light and warmth of the sun to the earth, giving life to all created beings, so do the “Manifestations” (Messengers) bring the power of the Holy Spirit from the Divine Sun of Reality to give light and life to the souls of men." ~ 'Abdu'l-Bahá, Bahai Faith

John Bunyan in his book The Holy war describes the Holy Spirit perfectly. Jesus told his disciples...."I will send the Holy Spirit..... He will show you everything I have told you.

We will never be able to describe God in His fullness, such as His Holy Trinity, with our human mind and language; it will be like trying to make a horse understand how grasses grow or something. However, we do know the Son of God, Jesus Christ, and because Jesus is fully God and fully Man, we are able to understand to a certain extent, how much God loves us and how God sees us; and so we can have a complete faith in God even though we cannot understand Him fully.

The Holy Spirit is God's presence in my life. The Knowing, the feeling that God is present in my life --- He is the tether - the fiery link who connects me to Jesus and to God the Father. The Holy Spirit is God's DESIRE for me to have a loving relationship with Him.

Father and Son, stir up your Spirit in me!

I try my best to Pray to God the Holy Spirit everyday because as Brandon said we tend to forget God the Holy Spirit in our Daily Life!

Amazing sermon, so many rich messages to sustain us on our journey to heaven! Thank you Bishop for opening the eyes of our hearts. May we taste the new wine of Jesus daily, by following the advice of our Blessed Mother, Amen!

Re: Devotional area. I have a friend who I share much of my spiritual activities, mostly by phone, because I think of her as a person of deep faith. One day, I went to her house for my first visit. she invited me to her room and there she opened her closet, which to my expectation is where clothes are kept. But to my surprise, the closet did not have hanging clothes nor folded ones. instead I saw an altar, a chair facing the altar and some icons and a crucifix. There are candles but not the real ones. She said that is where she commune with God everyday, and that includes her husband as well. What a private place it is.

Absolutely super interview! The Holy Spirit is always fanning into flame Bishop Barron's gifts, particular that of teacher. Thank you!

Thank God I am not alone God is my saviour and best friend Amen

Better words have never been spoken ❤

My human finite mind can only grasp so much of this ….thanks. Brandon, you’re a beautiful soul.

You cannot make do without the Holy Spirit. If we are made in God’s image, then we love God by loving our neighbour, and we must also, like God, be the lover, the beloved, as well as the love and loving that connects one to the other. And God is no more split into three separate parts than a person is when being the lover, the beloved, and being loving. It is merely love experienced as I, You, and We.

The Holy Spirit is not just a person but also a divine because God is there even though God is the Father, and He is the Son and He is the Holy Spirit. Like in The Gospel we are told that God's son(Jesus Christ) Promised the Disciples that the Holy Spirit will come to them The Divine person who we are told about is (God), May God Bless you Bishop Robert Barron🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤✝✝✝👍👍👍

I love the converted closet idea!

Fr. Henri Nouwen in his book Clowning In Rome, gave the etymology of the word person. Personare from the Latin - To sound through. When I learned this it changed my perception of how I act or interact with others. As you are discussing the person of the Holy Spirit, it helps me to think of the Triune God as a sounding through of one to the other. For me it gives a more intimate understanding of the Godhead.

The Holy Spirit anointed The Apostles with Fire to announce The Resurrection Of Jesus. Imagine Him As Sunlight. Personal warmth for all the Faithful Yet also objectively separate.

The depth of pure theology is amazing and Bishop Barron is so clear in his explanations. I fail so often to understand it right. We always seem to rank these "persons"..as first second and third...as though that's an order of importance or power.. We seem to lose the first part of the statement as "God in three persons". Maybe the order only comes because this is the order that they have come to us? I firstly see Jesus as "God with us"....the carnal presence on earth who came to speak to us directly in human form. I see the Spirit as the presence of God within us....who was introduced to us by Jesus the Christ to help us remain in unity with each other and with God in the same way he had on earth. All represent God reaching out to us to bring us in unity to him and with each other. The theology of this in a form that's without fault escapes me.

The message of this video was very powerful. Thank you Bishop Barron for explaining the Holy Spirit so beautifully.

Thanks much for this video.

Beautifully articulated Bp. Barron!

Its difficult to apply our physical analogy and understand to such matters of the spirit. Thank you for this although I'll have to watch this multiple times to grasp most of it.

I am not Catholic but an Episcopalian and i just love this guy he is awesome.

The Holy Spirit is shared with others in communion when we open our hearts in connecting with God thru the Spirit of Christ in all of us while remembering Jesus in his presence on Holy Ground.

KEN DAVIS. WATCHING AGAIN BEFOE BED. I AWAKE EACH MORNING AT 5AM.WATCHING EWTN UNTIL ROSAY AT END OF MASS.

The Trinity is like the life of a child who has grown up with loving parents. For all her early years she has made her home with Mom, Dad, and siblings, she has a place to sleep and eat, a place of shelter. She is always welcome home because it is her home. This is like the first person of the Trinity. As the child matures she is faced with choices, challenges, errors. She invokes the wisdom and guidance obtained from her parents to pass through trials and tribulations, and to make a place of her own in the world. This is like the second person of the Trinity. As she becomes independent and forges a life with others and becomes a force for good she is a light and guide to others. This is a mutual light that shines within herself, her family, her friends, and with strangers she meets. This is like the third person of the Trinity. This is similar to a heroes journey for the everyman.

I have been used by God to pray for a friend who was subsequently healed. Last week i was really realky poorly from covid and was prayed form. Woke up totalky well next morning!.

So beautifully expressed, May my soul magnify the Lord. Amen

I have a Little Alter in my Living Room with Holy Bible, a picture frame of Sacred Heart of Jesus, Blessed Mother, St. Joseph and St. Theresa. With Candles in the front. When we say our daily Nigh Pray we light the candles 🕯

Hey Bishop Robert. I just wanted to say that you’ve been instrumental in the deconstructing of my faith, without losing it. Thanks brother.

In summary: God says, "I am that I am". So god has the prerogative to appear on earth in however he sees fit; as a glorified person, as a humble loving person on earth who is a channel of healing or whenever he feels like it instead as he sees fit -- He can appear as a burning bush.

Thank you so much Bishop Barron

Wow! I listened to this twice!!! So profound!! And inspiring!!!

I understand why the Bishop speaks of the Holy Spirit in general terms. 2009, Holy Spirit strangeness: at one church confession the priest speaks in mocking & unserious terms. Weeks later on a long line to a different priest that priest is relieved by the one I was avoiding. No problem. Maybe the last time was an anomaly. I mention a Catholic fraternity I had joined years earlier. In a loud voice so every1 outside the confessional could hear he says he had “no use” for said fraternity. The 3rd confession? Exactly opposite again, a normal confession. How possible? Not imaginary, no drugs or alcohol. I mentioned the fraternity to a different priest in a nearby church. His response? “They have their own agenda that has nothing to do with religion.” Very true. That priest’s Sunday sermon said “watch out for those who value piety over people.” Direct and to the point.

God bless B Barron

Bishop Barron, Thank you very much for all the Spirit-filled teachings you do. I have a question. We say, we are the temple of the Holy Spirit. If so, why do we pray, :Come Holy Spirit, when He is already dwelling in us. Is it because, human as we are, we are still sinners and are not consciously aware and recognize His Presence in us? And when we mindfully recognize that God is dwelling in us, His grace flows freely in us. Whatever angst, conflict, frustration, illness, problem, issues and concerns, both personal or otherwise we are facing now is GOD'S permissive will to WATER and PRUNE our TREE of LIFE that we may bear the FRUITS of the HOLY SPIRIT. As you said, do we become more loving, more joyful, more peaceful, gentle, kind, faithful, generous, self-controlled, patient when we are test by trials and tribulations of life?

The Holy Spirit is the living dynamic of the Beatific Vision.

You should do an interview between Barron, Hahn, and Chan. Chan wrote a book called Unity. And Hahn wrote a book called Rome Sweet Home. I would love to hear more about unity amongst Christians and what that would look like.

I found a book entitled The Paraclete is very informative on the Holy Spirit and gave a copy to my pastor. He permitted me to do a Novena to the Holy Spirit for the past three years. We hope to continue the presentation and remind the parish that Easter Season is not over until Pentecost Sunday. Thank you for the information today on the Holy Spirit.

I modestly believe that the Holy Sipirit is the Quality / Form of God to be present and manifested in all the hearts and minds of human beings who sincerely open themselves to His Will and Perspective. i.e. The Holy Spirit is the manifestation of the God’s omnipresence. This presence can be mamisfested in different degress of intensity, depending of number of factors.

When trying to understand the relation between the Holy Trinity, I was reminded of Gestalt theory where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

Come Holy Spirit I need Thee, come sweet Spirit I pray; come with Thy strength and Thy power, come in Thine own gentle way.

James 2:26 For just as a body without a spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead
