In our passage for today, we learn that we are situated within the context of a great theodrama, written and directed by God, and designed to lead us to eternal life. The Biblical drama has five acts: creation, the fall, the formation of Israel, Jesus Christ, and the Church. We read the Scriptures in order to discern the contours of that drama and, more importantly, our place within it.word,fire,father,robert,barron,christ,sermon,sermons,podcastHomilies33054a488319740f0161895c05b77d5001f@0|@0|@0|@0|@0yeshttp://ll.mycatholicvoice.com/f/ch/A9067x/288TheFiveActDrama.mp3

4763WH3cOMy Flesh is Real Food; My Blood is Real DrinkOur Gospel for this weekend is the climax of Jesus' Bread of Life Discourse from the sixth chapter of John's Gospel. Given every opportunity to offer a symbolic interpretation of his words concerning his body and blood, Jesus intensifies the realism of his statement: "My flesh is real food; my blood is real drink." All Catholics must wrestle, in season and out, with the implications of this claim.word,fire,father,robert,barron,christ,sermon,sermons,podcastHomiliesfatherbarron210Father Robert Barron5http://ll.mycatholicvoice.com/f/8/2213_thumb.jpg2007-11-29 15:44:43.369391
210fhL36YVictory DayEaster is victory day. Jesus came, in C.S. Lewis’ words, as a warrior to do battle with all of the powers of darkness, from oppression and violence, to disease and death itself. On the cross, he struggled at close quarters with the enemy that most frightens us, and in the Resurrection, he won the victory on our behalf.word,fire,father,robert,barron,christ,sermon,sermons,podcastHomiliesfatherbarron1020Father Robert Barron5http://ll.mycatholicvoice.com/f/8/2092_thumb.jpg2007-11-29 15:41:31.466492
258oa7fRLLazarus, Come OutOur God hates death. He wants us to rise from our graves. Whenever life is compromised in any way, Jesus says, "Come out!" We are meant to see his tears of sorrow and hear his voice of command.word,fire,father,robert,barron,christ,sermon,sermons,podcastHomiliesfatherbarron900Father Robert Barron5http://ll.mycatholicvoice.com/f/8/1973_thumb.jpg2007-11-29 15:41:54.49709
418cmXfmhThe Irresistable WordOur first reading, from the prophet Isaiah, shows that God's word is not so much descriptive as creative: it produces what it says. In the very intelligibility of the material world, we can sense this reality-producing power. We can also sense it in the Biblical word, an invitation into divine friendship. But we encounter it most powerfully in the Word made flesh, Jesus Christ. To what extent do we permit this reality-changing Word to take root in us? That is the challenge of our readings for today.word,fire,father,robert,barron,christ,sermon,sermons,podcastHomiliesfatherbarron1330Father Robert Barron5http://ll.mycatholicvoice.com/f/8/2131_thumb.jpg2007-11-29 15:43:42.347866
