Some very good Fr. Barron videos
I first learned about Fr. Robert Barron when my good friend Phil Hanifan suggested that I read one of Fr. Barron's books "The Strangest Way, Walking the Christian Path". I have read the book twice.
I was very excited when I found that Fr. Barron has a website called WordOnFire. This site is filled with lots of fun things including videos. In this post, I'd like to share a couple of these videos that I especially like.
About science and the Bible
I remember studying Thomas Aquinas in a philosophy class very long ago. What I like about this video is Fr. Barron's explanation of the relation between science and the Bible. I also enjoy Fr. Barron's discussion about God becoming human so that we can share in the divine life.
The Catholicism Project
I am also very excited to see that Fr. Barron has created a 10 part TV series called "Catholicism", which will air on public TV in September. This 9 minute YouTube video is a preview of that series.
