Peace be with you.

Friends, we come to the sixth Sunday of Easter, which means we're coming to the end of the Easter season, which means we're coming toward the great feast of Pentecost, which after Christmas and Easter is the most important feast of the church year, the feast of the Holy Spirit.
3
And that's why the church gives us now, as we're approaching Pentecost, these little hints, little anticipations of the Holy Spirit.
4
If you talk, especially to our Eastern Christian friends, they'll chide us in the West because we tend to underplay the Holy Spirit.
5
And there might be some truth to that, and there are a lot of reasons for it.
6
But it certainly is not warranted in the scriptures.
7
The scripture is filled with insight and celebration of the Holy Spirit.
8
And this Easter season I've said to you before, the whole of the Acts of the Apostles is all about the Holy Spirit.
9
The risen Christ, the ascended Christ now sends the Spirit into the church to continue his work.
10
What we see now in all three readings today, this marvelous manifestation of the Spirit, the signs of the Holy Spirit, I think it's good for all of us because look, this is still the era that we're in.
11
We're in act five of the great theodrama.
12
We're in the final act of the theodrama, which is the age of the church.
13
So what's true of the first Christians is true of us.
14
So what do we find out about the Holy Spirit?
15
What we hear in the Acts of the Apostles of Philip and his missionary work.
16
And here's something I think really important and interesting about it.
17
See, it's how Christians read what happens to them.
18
Because of the persecution in Jerusalem, so the early church is being persecuted.
19
And your first instinct is to say, "It's just terrible. It's just a horrible thing.
20
Why is God visiting this persecution upon us?" But look what happens because of it.
21
Philip and others then flee from Jerusalem and they go around the Holy Land and they begin to proclaim.
22
So it becomes a sort of happy fault.
23
The persecution led to missionaries going out like seed all over first the Holy Land and then the world.
24
So anyway, he comes to Samaria and we hear that he proclaims Christ to them.
25
Now, just stay with that for a second.
26
He proclaims Christ to them.
27
We're never meant to keep Christ to ourselves.
28
I know our etiquette in our Western societies is a privatizing etiquette.
29
We tend to say, "No, no, your religion's fine.
30
That's good for you, but keep it to yourself.
31
We don't want you making a public display of your faith." That's repugnant to the Bible, everybody.
32
That's repugnant to the nature of Christianity.
33
Jesus said, "Go and proclaim, preach to all the nations." One of the marks of the Holy Spirit, therefore, is bold speech.
34
Let me say that again.
35
One of the marks of the Holy Spirit in the church, broadly speaking, and in your life is bold speech.
36
Now, think from the apostles through the great missionaries and evangelists up to Billy Graham and John Paul II.
37
Bold proclamation of the Lord is a sign of the movement of the Holy Spirit.
38
Now, again, I know you're tempted to think, "Well, all right, the apostles and Billy Graham and John Paul II, professional evangelizers, that's not me.
39
I'm trying to make my way in the world." No, no, no.
40
But if you're baptized, maybe you won't be a professional evangelist like John Paul II.
41
But if you're baptized, you have the task of prophecy.
42
You have the task of declaring Christ boldly, unapologetically, with joy and enthusiasm.
43
I mean, to what degree do we, and I'll accuse myself here, do we succumb to the etiquette of our kind of modern Western culture, treating our religion as a kind of private hobby?
44
No, no, no.
45
That means the Holy Spirit is not in you.
46
Okay. So there's the first one, bold speech.
47
Here's second one.
48
It says, "The people heard Philip preaching and then for unclean spirits, crying out in a loud voice, came out of many possessed people, and many paralyzed or crippled people were cured." Now, again, I know in our context, we probably look askance at this sort of language.
49
We think, oh, that sounds kind of superstitious and a little bit crazy and demons and people being cured.
50
But like it or not, from the Bible all the way through the great tradition to the present day, this is one of the marks of the Holy Spirit are amazing signs, especially now in the order of healing.
51
So the spirit is not just going to do magic tricks for us.
52
Let me show you something amazing.
53
No, the driving out of demons, that's a spiritual healing.
54
And then the curing of physical ailments.
55
It's one of the marks of the Holy Spirit, of the miraculous.
56
Again, if you doubt me, I might have mentioned this to you before.
57
There's a great book by a guy named Craig Keener.
58
He's a Protestant biblical scholar, super smart fellow.
59
And this is a two volume, it's a big fat thing like this, two volume account of miracles taking place today.
60
So not long ago, but really, really strange, amazing, marvelous miracles, mostly of healing, that take place today.
61
It's one of the marks of the Holy Spirit.
62
As I record these words, I'm standing, what, about a two-minute walk from the main building of the Mayo Clinic, the greatest hospital in the country, one of the greatest in the world.
63
Does Christ, usually in his providence, arrange that he works through secondary causes?
64
Yeah. Christ heals through the genius and the skill and the knowledge of surgeons and diagnosticians and so on.
65
Yeah. And that's great.
66
That's of the Holy Spirit too.
67
But are there sometimes when, especially I find when the gospel's being proclaimed in a new place, or maybe there's a special need of some kind, that the Holy Spirit in a remarkable way manifests himself.
68
Now, if you're a Catholic, you think of a place like Lourdes.
69
Yes, Christ usually heals through the instrumentality of secondary causes, but sometimes he does so in this remarkable way.
70
That's a manifestation of the Holy Spirit.
71
Here's the third thing.
72
And I love this in the reading about Philip and his evangelizing of Samaria.
73
It says, "The rejoicing in that place rose to fever pitch." I don't know what the Greek is.
74
I didn't check it exactly, but I love that rendering in English.
75
"The rejoicing in that place rose to fever pitch." The flag of the Holy Spirit, if you want to know, is joy.
76
The flag that the Holy Spirit's in you is joy.
77
And you see it now in the lives of the saints, many of whom led difficult lives, faced enormous challenges.
78
Yeah, absolutely.
79
But the joy of the Holy Spirit comes bubbling up from them, nevertheless.
80
What does God want for us?
81
He's not there to oppress us.
82
He's not there to be this onerous sort of burden upon us.
83
No, God, I've come that your joy might be complete.
84
That's what he wants.
85
He wants us flourishing, alive, joyful.
86
And the more the Holy Spirit's in you, the more you're going to manifest joy.
87
I was reading recently a biography of William F. Buckley, the great political pundit, someone that I've kind of admired for many years.
88
I remember watching him as a kid, being fascinated by his debating style and all that.
89
And Buckley's kind of known for his incisive wit and his intelligence.
90
But you know what comes through in the biography?
91
His joy, that it was very difficult to be around him without laughter.
92
Witness after witness will say that when they were with Buckley, there was laughter.
93
Well, of course, he was a man of deep Christian faith, deep Catholic faith.
94
Joy. St.Paul names it, in fact, as one of the fruits of the Holy Spirit, doesn't he?
95
When I was helping young men discern the priesthood years ago when I was teaching at the seminary, I'd point to that.
96
Is this life for me?
97
Well, does it make you joyful?
98
Yeah, it does.
99
Well, good.
100
That's a good indicator.
101
Or, hey, is this life for me?
102
Well, you seem sad all the time.
103
That might be an indicator this is not for you.
104
When the Holy Spirit's in you, joy is going to reach, now maybe not a fever pitch every day, but joy will be a steady accompaniment of your life.
105
I love that.
106
So bold speech, the miraculous joy.
107
Here's a fourth one.
108
This is from our second reading now.
109
St.Peter tells us in his first letter, "Always be ready to give an explanation to anyone who asks you for a reason for your hope." Let me say that again.
110
It's a very important line.
111
He's saying to his Christian disciples here, "Always be ready to give an explanation to anyone who asks you for a reason for your hope." What is it about you Christians?
112
What is this faith of yours?
113
Where's that joy coming from?
114
How are these miracles being performed?
115
What's going on with you people?
116
Well, those questions were asked 2,000 years ago.
117
They're still being asked today, aren't they?
118
St.Peter says, "Be ready to give a reason for the hope that's in you." Intellectual curiosity.
119
Intellectual seriousness.
120
Thinking deeply about the faith.
121
St. Anselm says, "Fides quaerens intellectum," doesn't he?
122
Faith seeking understanding.
123
John Henry Newman says that Mary, who ponders these mysteries in her heart, is the model of all theologians.
124
One of the marks of the Holy Spirit is an eagerness to think deeply about the faith, to read about the faith, to study it, to muse over it, to entertain objections to it, to learn how to respond to those who are opposed to it.
125
Apologetics, theology, scripture study, all of it.
126
Now, I've railed against this for a long time, but when I was coming of age, there was a deep anti-intellectualism in the church, and it was a disaster.
127
That was a disaster at every level.
128
And go right back here to 1st Peter.
129
One of the signs of the Holy Spirit in you is a willingness to engage the faith in an intellectual way.
130
In fact, Newman says that one of the signs that the church is properly unfolding and properly living its life is intellectual curiosity and engagement.
131
Don't underplay that, everybody.
132
Joy and miracles, yeah, bold speech, all that, but deep thought, that's a sign of the Holy Spirit too.
133
Here's the last one.
134
I'm going to rely on the gospel, which is now all throughout the season we're reading from that high priestly prayer of Jesus the night before he dies.
135
Listen to this.
136
"On that day, you will realize that I am in my Father and you are in me and I in you.
137
Whoever has my commandments and observes them is the one who loves me.
138
And whoever loves me will be loved by my Father." Now, what do we find here?
139
This is typical of that discourse.
140
It's this coinherence, this weaving together.
141
I'm in you, you in me, we in them, they in us.
142
What's being described here is the heart of the Christian thing, everybody, is the Father sent the Son all the way out to Godforsaken us, that he might gather us into the love that the Father and Son share, whose name is the Holy Spirit.
143
All of this, Germans have that lovely term, ineinander the one in the other, this circumincession, this coinherence.
144
That's a mark of Christianity.
145
What's the name for all this?
146
Love. The Holy Spirit is the love that connects the Father and the Son.
147
St.John tells us God is love.
148
Therefore, when the Spirit is dwelling in you, what's dwelling in you, love, the love that God is.
149
The Father and the Son loving each other havedrawn you into their life.
150
That's Christianity.
151
So the sheerest, fullest, most beautiful sign of the Holy Spirit is love.
152
Do you will the good of the other?
153
That's what it comes down to.
154
That's the clearest sign that the Holy Spirit's in you.
155
And God bless you.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
