Signum Fidei Lecture

The YouTube Heresies

With Rev. Robert Barron

Father Barron will explore four of the principal obstacles to the proclamation of the Christian Gospel in today’s culture, especially among people under 40. These “heresies” are ones that he encounters on a regular basis in the course of his evangelization ministry on the Internet. Rector/President of the University of Saint Mary of the Lake/Mundelein Seminary, Barron is author of eight books, creator and host of “Catholicism,” a ten-part documentary on the Catholic faith, and founder of Word on Fire Catholic Ministries, a media group dedicated to the new evangelization.
