The Call of Samuel

January 12, 2018 - 9:20pm

Bishop Barron gives a excellent homily on this week's first reading and how it relates to the sex abuse crisis in the Church.  Click here to hear the homily.

"The story of the call of Samuel is illuminating for our time of corruption and cleansing. I argue that the sex abuse scandal in the church should be read through the lens of this narrative."  - Bishop Barron
