St. Peter Chrysologus & St. Barbara (4 December): Two Great Saints & Holy Helpers

About this sermon

Ave Maria! In this video, we explore the inspiring lives of St. Peter Chrysologus, Doctor of the Church, and St. Barbara, one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers. Learn about their heroic virtues, miraculous stories, and powerful intercession. 📖 St. Peter Chrysologus, known as the Golden-Worded preacher, was chosen as Bishop of Ravenna through a miraculous vision given to Pope St. Sixtus III. His teachings and homilies continue to strengthen the faithful today, including his warning: “He who jokes with the devil will not rejoice with the Lord.” ⚔️ St. Barbara, patroness of artillerymen, architects, miners, and protection from lightning and sudden death, endured fierce persecution from her own father after converting to Christianity. Her courage and miraculous deliverance stand as a timeless witness to the power of faith. This video offers a concise yet powerful reflection on these two great saints of the Church and their ongoing relevance for Christians today. 00:00 – Introduction 00:10 – Feast Day of St. Peter Chrysologus & St. Barbara 00:19 – Background of St. Peter Chrysologus 00:29 – How bishops were elected in the early Church 00:40 – Journey to Rome for consecration 00:53 – Vision of St. Peter, St. Paul, and St. Apollinaris 01:11 – Identification of the chosen bishop 01:37 – Pope Sixtus confirms the divine vision 01:48 – Consecration of St. Peter Chrysologus 01:53 – Ravenna: Capital city with Greek influence 02:05 – Why he was called “Golden Words” 02:11 – His famous quote 02:26 – Transition to St. Barbara 02:31 – Patronages of St. Barbara 02:41 – Her early life and pagan father 02:56 – Conversion to Christianity 03:13 – Her theological explanation of the three windows 03:48 – Her father’s rage and abuse 04:02 – Trial before the prefect 04:07 – Torture and imprisonment 04:15 – Christ heals St. Barbara 04:21 – Sentenced to death 04:27 – Her father beheads her 04:32 – Divine punishment: lightning strike 04:36 – Patroness of lightning, fire, and sudden death 04:46 – One of the Fourteen Holy Helpers 04:49 – Closing For more please visit http://veritascaritas.com/ & remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 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.
