Dear Friend,


In this holy season of Lent, we have a donor-exclusive resource to aid you in the sacrament of confession—a concise booklet from Bishop Barron called Return to the Father: An Examination of Conscience. Make a donation to support our mission of evangelization and receive this exclusive gift not available for purchase in the Word on Fire Bookstore.


MAKE GIFT

This booklet offers an examination of conscience based on the Ten Commandments. Framed between a thoughtful introduction and conclusion, Bishop Barron provides his reflections on these seven subjects:


Chapter 1: Pride and Humility

Chapter 2: Envy and Admiration

Chapter 3: Anger & Forgiveness

Chapter 4: Sloth & Zeal

Chapter 5: Avarice & Generosity

Chapter 6: Gluttony & Asceticism

Chapter 7: Lust & Chastity


As Bishop Barron affirms, the sacrament of reconciliation—confession—is the privileged means by which Christ reaches out to forgive the sins of his people. Here, we experience a living encounter with God's tender mercy. Through sin, we have turned away from God, but by this healing sacrament, we are restored to right relationship with him. 


At the heart of evangelization is restoring our relationship with God. With genuine compassion for our brothers and sisters, we share our Catholic faith so that they may come to know the joy and consolation of the sacraments.


Please consider making a gift today to support these efforts as we continue to grow our ministry and expand our reach. It is because of the generous support of our donors that our resources reach millions of people each month. 


As Pope Francis often said, "The Lord never tires of forgiving. It is we who grow tired of asking for forgiveness." May you persevere in holiness, always ready to return to the Father when you go astray. 


God bless you,
