Becoming a Disciple of Jesus - Bishop Barron's Sunday Sermon

Note: This sermon was recorded on March 28, 2025.

Friends, on this Third Sunday of Easter, we have the magnificent Gospel from the very end of the Gospel of John, chapter twenty-one, which is so rich theologically. We see here, on full display, what it means for us—who are all ambiguous characters—to stop resisting the cross of self-denial and love and to walk the way of the Lord.
