The Fall

Will Father Barron become the Fulton Sheen of the 21st Century?  He seems like a natural speaker - something rarer than hen's teeth among Catholic priests.  Moreover, he has an effortless way of weaving classical learning into his sermons.  In this one, he tosses out quotations by Chesterton and Blaise Pascal. 

If he keeps this up, he might revive the tradition of higher learning being "cool."

Absolutely, cool.

God as Gift-Giver. I'm ashamed to say that I've never imagined Him to be so beautifully simple.

Wonderful find--and thanks for posting it.
