The Least Religious Generation in U.S. History: A Reflection on Jean Twenge’s “iGen”

October 26, 2017
By Bishop Robert Barron
Filed Under: Commentary, Word on Fire, Young Adult Ministry, Youth Ministry

As late as 2004, 84 percent of young adults said that they regularly prayed; by 2016, fully one fourth of that same age cohort said that they never pray.

Peter Claver vs. Immanuel Kant

September 18, 2017
By Bishop Robert Barron
Filed Under: Blog, Word on Fire

Immediately after caring for their physical and psychological needs, the saint commenced to instruct the slaves in the rudiments of the Christian faith.

Ingrid’s Virtual Reality

September 8, 2017
By Bishop Robert Barron
Filed Under: Commentary, Word on Fire

The social media space can become so enticing that we strangely distort ourselves in order to conform to it, and we prefer its artificiality to the density, challenge, and opportunity of the actual world.

The mysterious church on the edge of the world

August 17, 2017
By Bishop Robert Barron
Filed Under: Blog, Word on Fire

I have discovered now through direct experience, though I had certainly sensed it through photographs, that it is practically impossible to gaze at Mont Saint-Michel without falling into mystical reverie.

Musing on the teeth of St. Ambrose

August 2, 2017
By Bishop Robert Barron
Filed Under: Commentary, Word on Fire

We clothe the skeleton of St. Ambrose in stately liturgical robes and we crown his skull with a bishop’s miter, not be macabre or “creepy,” but because we reverence his body as a place where Christ had come to dwell

A Bride and Groom; The Bride and The Groom

June 29, 2017
By Bishop Robert Barron
Filed Under: Commentary, Marriage & Family Life, Word on Fire

It is a peculiarity of Catholic theology that a couple exchanging vows at their wedding Mass do not so much receive a sacrament as they become a sacrament.

Kathy Griffin and the vanishing of argument

June 13, 2017
By Bishop Robert Barron
Filed Under: Commentary, Word on Fire

when there is no truth, there can be no argument, for argument depends upon a shared appeal to certain epistemic and ethical values.

Our Lady of Fatima and a theological reading of history

May 19, 2017
By Bishop Robert Barron
Filed Under: Commentary, Word on Fire

The series of Fatima appearances — lasting from May until October of 1917 — is one of the most extraordinary in the history of the church.

The Benedict Option and the identity/relevance dilemma

April 21, 2017
By Bishop Robert Barron
Filed Under: Commentary

The very intensity of the interest in The Benedict Option in one way proves Dreher’s central point, namely, that there is a widely-felt instinct that something has gone rather deeply wrong with the culture and that classical Christianity, at least in the West, is in a bit of a mess.

‘The Case for Christ’ and a stubbornly historical religion

April 13, 2017
By Bishop Robert Barron
Filed Under: Commentary

The Case for Christ is interesting for any number of reasons, but I think it is particularly compelling for its subtle portrayal of the psychological, spiritual, and intellectual dynamics of evangelization.

Pope Francis and the Evangelicals

January 27, 2016
By Bishop Robert Barron
Filed Under: Blog, Word on Fire

(The Church) should lead today as it led two thousand years ago, with the stunning news that Jesus Christ is the Lord, and the joy of that proclamation should be as evident now as it was then.
