Send us Fan MailWe connect what we believe about the human person made in God's image to what we do at the altar, from the Bible's earliest sacrifices to the Eucharist. We push past ritual fights and “do-it-my-way” spirituality to recover worship as a real encounter with Christ that demands love of God and neighbor. • Christian anthropology as the foundation for worship and liturgy • worship as awe before the Creator and reserved to God alone • the human desire for transcendence and the temptation to worship created things • sacrifice as the thread from Eden through Cain and Abel to Abraham • God's corrective guidance and progressive “plus one” teaching in salvation history • ritualism as ideology and the prophets' call back to mercy • the law as a pedagogue leading to Christ and Christ as fulfillment • the Eucharist as participation in Christ's once-for-all sacrifice • joining our lives to the offering and living as a steward through baptismal grace • communion as a communal reality that must spill into love of neighbor • avoiding legalism on one side and guideline-free worship on the other If you like My Friend the Friar and want to support us, please consider subscribing or following us if you haven't already done so.

In today's sermon, Apostle Alfred Williams continues the church's deep focus on Jesus Christ—what He said, what He did, and how His life becomes our template. He teaches that love for God is the entrance into God's power, and that power is not “manufactured” by fasting but bestowed by the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8; Acts 2). Drawing from Peter's transformation and the miracle at the Gate Beautiful, he reminds us that the works of God flow through faith in the name of Jesus (Acts 3:16), and that obedience is the evidence of genuine Christianity (John 14:15; 1 John 2:3). This sermon is a call to wake up: church is not a show, but the life of God in people—seen in character, modesty, and righteousness that stands out in a compromised culture. He then takes the message higher: love is also the entrance into revelation. Apostle Alfred Williams declares that God wants to confide in His people—“The Lord confides in those who fear Him” (Psalm 25:14)—and that what God has prepared for those who love Him includes what eyes have not seen, ears have not heard, and minds have not conceived (1 Corinthians 2:9). Through the Holy Spirit, believers can receive direction, insight, and prophetic clarity for life, purpose, and even career (1 Corinthians 2:12). He illustrates this with Abraham—God refusing to hide His plans from a friend (Genesis 18:17)—and charges the church to reject spiritual laziness and pursue intimacy with Christ daily. This sermon will stir your hunger for more than routine religion: fall deeper in love with Jesus, and watch the Holy Spirit open what was hidden—until heaven's secrets become your everyday reality.

Welcome to Part 28 of our John G. Turner series of the Joseph Smith Podcast! Today we continue our deep dive into the Egyptian Materials, the Book of Abraham, and how its theology shaped Mormonism's most distinctive doctrines –including premortal existence, exaltation, intelligences, and the idea of God becoming God.This episode explores how Joseph Smith resumed work on the papyri in Nauvoo, publicly introduced the Book of Abraham, and used it as a vehicle for unfolding expansive cosmology and theology. We examine the papyri themselves, the facsimiles, translation claims, the catalyst theory, and why there is little evidence that key scrolls are missing.More importantly, we trace how the Book of Abraham becomes the theological backbone for ideas that later crystalize in the King Follett Discourse, the Plan of Salvation, the War in Heaven, and the belief that humans can become Gods.This is Part 2 of our discussion on the Egyptian Materials and their lasting influence on Mormon doctrine.Please purchase the book ⁠here⁠.To support this series please donate ⁠here⁠.

Genesis 11:27 - 12:9

#advent #catholic #sspxAdvent is a holy season of waiting. We learn how to wait for God.Waiting well is an important spiritual skill, because God often moves slowly. When we look at the history of the world and of the human race, we see that God is never in a hurry.God is outside of time. All of time is like a single moment for Him. He sees all of human history from the highest perspective.When we interact with God, we have to be willing for Him to act slowly. We have to be willing to wait. “Show, O Lord, thy ways to me. Teach me thy paths”, we say in today's Introit. His ways are slow.Abraham: God first appears to him when he is 75 years old, and promises that he will make a great nation of him. But his wife is not able to have any children. After 25 years, God appears to Abraham, when he is 100 years old, and promises that he will have a child by Sara, who is 90 years old. She has Isaac and the whole race of the Chosen People comes from him.Moses: the Israelites are being oppressed by the Pharaoh. He is telling the midwives to put their male children to death. Moses is saved from the water and raised by Pharaoh's daughter in the Egyptian court. When he is 40 years old, he flees to the desert. Only after 40 years more does God appear to Moses and ask him to go back to Egypt to deliver the Israelite people. They had been in slavery for 80 years at that point.Coming of Our Lord: God waits a number of centuries after Adam. When Our Lord comes onto this earth, He is not rushed. Rather, He spends 30 years living a hidden and unknown life. Only then does He come out into the public.Bottom line: God often waits a long time before acting. (same will be true of end of world!)We find this characteristic of our God difficult because we are naturally impatient as human beings. We are willful and we want control. We want things to happen when we want them to happen. We find it humbling to be forced to wait.

Abraham #6 - As cruel as God's test for Abraham seems on the surface, this sermon shows how it is actually a gift of grace from God. God spares Isaac's life, but he does not spare his own Son. Jesus dies on the cross to save us. God didn't spare His Son, His only Son, from you.

A ragged caravan, cracked wineskins, and a story that won't let go: Joshua 9 shows what happens when clever deception meets unprayed decisions. We walk through the Gibeonite ruse, the leaders' oath, and the shocking part—God holds Israel to a promise they never should have made. From there we map a crucial framework most of us feel but rarely name: the difference between a promise, a contract, and a covenant. One rests on honesty, one on justice, and one on relationship. To anchor it, we revisit God's covenant with Abraham—God alone walking between the pieces—and see how that grace explains both the cross and our call to be people whose yes means yes.The conversation turns practical fast. Israel discovers the lie within three days but refuses revenge because they swore before the Lord. Centuries later, a famine exposes Saul's breach of that same covenant, proving that words echo across generations. We explore how this tension lands in modern life: marriage vows as a Spirit-sealed covenant, church membership as a pledge of spiritual family, and everyday commitments that shape character. Integrity is costly, but it can be worship—a way to honor God when keeping your word hurts more than breaking it. We offer concrete counsel on praying before you sign, inviting wise voices into big decisions, and guarding your speech so your future isn't mortgaged by hasty promises.If you're craving a deeper, sturdier view of commitment—rooted in Scripture, honest about pain, and rich with hope—this one will steady your steps. Listen, reflect, and share with someone who needs courage to keep a hard promise today. If this helped you, follow the show, leave a review, and tell a friend what stood out most.

Derek Chapin continues our series by preaching from Genesis 26, showing that despite Isaac's repeated failures and fears—much like his father Abraham—God's unstoppable grace remains, blessing him to be a blessing so that ultimately all nations might be reconciled through Christ, the true Son of promise.

Life with God doesn't mean life without problems. In fact, sometimes following Him brings new challenges. Just ask Abraham—God promised to make him a great nation, but it took 25 years, countless failures, and moments of doubt before the promise was fulfilled. In this message from our Hope Makes a Comeback series, we discover how God uses waiting, testing, and even our failures to grow our faith and anchor our hope in Him. His promises never fail—even when the process takes longer than we expect.

From "Last Retreat Day 9 pt 2" found in The Complete Works vol 1: 23. Speaking to Abraham God said: “Walk in My presence and be perfect.” 134 This then is the way to achieve this perfection that our Heavenly Father asks of us! St. Paul, after having immersed himself in the divine counsels, 135 revealed exactly this to us when he wrote “God has chosen us in Him before the creation of the world, that we might be holy and immaculate in His presence in love.” 136 It is also by the light of this same saint that I will be enlightened so that I might walk without deviating from this magnificent road of the presence of God on which the soul journeys “alone with the Alone,” 137 led by the “strength of His right arm,” 138 “under the protection of His wings, without fearing the terror of the night nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the evil that stalks in darkness, nor the attacks of the noonday devil. 139 24. “Strip off the old man in whom you lived your former life, “ he tells me, “and put on the new man, who has been created according to God in justice and holiness.” 140 This is the way set forth; we have only to strip off self to follow it as God wills! To strip off self, to die to self, to lose sight of self. It seems to me the Master meant this when He said: “If anyone wants to follow Me, let him take up his cross and deny himself.” 141 “If you live according to the flesh,” the Apostle also says, “you will die, but if you put to death in the spirit the works of the flesh, you will live.” 142 This is the death that God asks for and of which it is said: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.” 143 “O death,” says the Lord, “I will be your death”; 144 that is: O soul, my adopted daughter, look at Me and you will forget yourself; flow entirely into My Being, come die in Me that I may live in you!
