Saint John, Apostle and Evangelist (27 December) ~ Dom Prosper Guéranger

About this sermon

Feast of St. John the Apostle & Evangelist (December 27) — a traditional Catholic reading and meditation on the disciple whom Jesus loved, honored as the prince of virgins, the Eagle and Theologian, and the chosen guardian-son of Our Lady at the Cross. This recording reflects on the Church’s praise of St. John’s purity, his unique intimacy with Jesus at the Last Supper, and his mission to proclaim the eternal mystery: “In the beginning was the Word… and the Word was made flesh.” You’ll also hear Mass texts, commentary, and Vespers, along with hymns to St. John from Western and Eastern tradition, and a closing meditation on the Infant Jesus sleeping — sanctifying human rest by His divine humility. 00:00 — Feast of St. John (Dec 27): John near the Crib after St. Stephen 00:47 — Martyrdom & the sacrifice of virginity: John, prince of virgins 01:29 — John’s calling: leaving boat, nets, and betrothed 02:05 — “The disciple whom Jesus loved” — why the Church speaks this way 03:17 — The Last Supper: John leans on the Heart of Jesus 04:03 — John writes the sublime mysteries: “The Word was God” 05:35 — The Eagle & Theologian: purity and vision of uncreated light 06:06 — John’s Epistles: “God is Charity” and the love Jesus enkindles 07:15 — At the Cross: John receives Mary as Mother 08:45 — John’s martyrdom of desire: boiling oil at Rome 10:18 — Bethlehem’s court: Stephen and John; the stable as heaven on earth 11:13 — Mass begins: Introit and Collect 13:08 — Lesson (Wisdom/Ecclesiasticus) and commentary 15:09 — Gospel (John 21): “If I will have him remain…” explained 16:58 — Offertory, Secret, Communion, Postcommunion 19:06 — Vespers begins: Psalms and antiphons for Christmas season 28:20 — Hymn and Magnificat antiphon for St. John 32:23 — Hymns to St. John: Roman, Milan, Greek tradition 40:15 — Medieval sequence and closing prayer to St. John 45:28 — Meditation: the Infant Jesus sleeping — sanctifying our rest 50:39 — Hymns to Christ and to Our Lady: joy of Bethlehem https://sensusfidelium.com/the-liturgical-year-dom-prosper-gueranger/december/december-27-saint-john-apostle-and-evangelist/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ Sensus Fidelium Press - https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ Sensus Fidelium Apps - https://sensusfidelium.tv/ Support Sensus Fidelium - https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 🙏🏻PLEASE HELP OUR CHANNEL GROW 🙏🏻 ▶ 1.
