I love Fr. Ripperger and his sermons and writings. 🙂

Between Sensus Traditionis and Audio Sancto I’ve found more treasure than I have in all the years of sermons I’ve listened to before.

I have them all entirely downloaded and on my audio playlist, along with some Gregorian chant for musical alternative.

His book, ‘Introduction to the Science of Mental Health’ is quite worthwhile reading if you can handle a textbook level book with a Thomist approach to psychology.

Great fellow. Full of mental clarity and precision in his catechesis, and the opposite of boring to listen to.
 
I’ve listened to several of Fr. Rippergers sermons and talks on Sensus Traditionis and have to admit I’ve learned much for which I am truly grateful for.

However, at times I find his presentation cold. He’ll be expounding some wonderful truth and then turn around and say something like “If you have any of these impediments you have no real love for Jesus Christ” or something to that effect. I mean can you imagine some poor soul with tons of mortal sins to confess who finally works up the courage to go to confession and right after receiving absolution the priest says “Since you’re not perfect you have no hope of gaining eternal life.”

Do others feel this way too or is it just me?
 
I find him to be a very serious speaker, and a solemn man not given to fiddling about. Perhaps he’s a little harsh, but I like a priest who’s a real man and doesn’t care about our feelings. 😉 This is a very good set of instructions, and the reverend father has done us well. Thank God for F.S.S.P.
 
Yes I realize that he is very serious but he could show a little more compassion and understanding for human weakness. I think God is very pleased whenever a person is seriously striving to advance in the spiritual life. To say someone has no genuine love for Christ is a bit unkind in my opinion. We are all flawed and sinners.
 
Love is in deed in the end…

We all have our personal preferences… but we shouldn’t let that get in the way of our learning about the truth. 🙂

I don’t think it’s a good idea to comment negatively on things we haven’t actually heard and in context too. Especially since he did not say what you said in the last quote, so…

Careful now.
 
Thank you for posting this!

For some reason, I’m not able to get the audio on this link, so I can’t enjoy it.:o

Can someone please tell me the title of the talk & if it is on

another site where I can access it.?

I do not have a problem with AUDIO SANCTO.

Thank you!
Peace,
Megan:)
