Bishop Robert Barron's Weekly Homily: Faith Without Good Works Is Dead
Friends, “fools rush in where angels fear to tread”—and this week, I am going to go once more into the issue of faith and works, which has been dividing Western Christianity since the Reformation. Our second reading from the Letter of James is a key text on this issue, and its metaphor of healing—together with Paul’s forensic metaphor—orient us to the Catholic view of justification.
Bishop Barron's weekly homilies are now accessible on YouTube or Wordonfire.
