June 7, 2026. Most Holy Body and Blood Sunday homily by Fr. Matt Lowry about how God allows us to be afflicted and hungry so that He can answer our need. He gives Himself to us in the Eucharist so that we can know we are not alone and receive His strength for the journey.

Dr. Jolly Mathew speaks from Romans 8:28-29 titled Chosen, Loved And Yet Afflicted.

In this video episode, Sidney breaks down an incredibly hidden and underrated horror movie that has a shocking plot twist, Afflicted (2013).

He [God] will deliver the needy who cry out, the afflicted who have no one to help. [NIV]

This is the morning sermon at Ramah Baptist Church in Palmetto, GA on May 31, 2026.In this sermon from 2 Corinthians 4:7–18, the Apostle Paul shows that God has put the treasure of the gospel in fragile clay jars—frail human beings—so that the surpassing power displayed in their lives belongs unmistakably to God. Afflicted, perplexed, persecuted, and struck down, the believer is yet not crushed, not despairing, not forsaken, not destroyed, because the resurrection life of Jesus is at work in his mortal flesh, the bodily resurrection of Christ secures his future, and an eternal weight of glory awaits him beyond all comparison. These verses remind every afflicted Christian that present sufferings, however heavy, are momentary and light against the glory that is coming, and that the believer who looks to what is unseen will not lose heart.For more information about our church, visit www.ramahfbc.com.

Smitten, Stricken, and Afflicted. Isaiah 52:13-53:12. Scripture read by Luke Harl.

Book of Psalms Psalm 102 is a heartfelt prayer from someone overwhelmed by suffering, loneliness, and weakness. The psalmist pours out his anguish before God, describing his distress and feeling as though his days are fading away. Yet in the midst of pain, his focus shifts to the unchanging nature of God. While human life is temporary and fragile, the Lord remains eternal, faithful, and sovereign through every generation. The psalm looks forward to God's compassion, restoration of Zion, and His care for those who cry out to Him. This psalm reminds us that even when we feel exhausted, forgotten, or overwhelmed, God remains the same. Our circumstances may change, but His love, faithfulness, and promises endure forever. Key Verse: “But You, O Lord, shall endure forever, and the remembrance of Your name to all generations.” — Psalm 102:12 Hashtags: #Psalm102 #PrayerInTrouble #GodIsFaithful #HopeInGod #TheLordEnduresForever #TrustInTheLord #StrengthForTheWeary #GodHearsPrayer #EternalGod #FaithThroughTrialsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sendme-radio--732966/support.“Thank you for listening to SendMe Radio — where we share the Gospel, inspire faith, and keep you connected with powerful stories and updates from around the world.

Last weekend, Curry Barker's Obsession was the talk of Horrorwood. But, it wasn't the only twisted relationship tale (nearly) new to audiences. BT Meza's Affection sticks Jessica Rothe in a horrible scenario of either amnesia or entrapment. It's horror by way of interpretation and perception: either a wife and mother has truly forgotten her family, or a woman is being gaslit into believing a life she never lived. The Matts have a heavy one on their hands to talk about this episode—but does the film earn its domestic thrills? About Affection Ellie Carter (Jessica Rothe) has never met the man who calls himself her husband, doesn't recognize the girl who calls her mother, and can't remember the life she is told is her own. Afflicted by violent seizures that reset her memory without warning, she is trapped in a cyclical nightmare, struggling to uncover the horrifying truth of her existence--before she forgets it all over again.

How Does the Church Sings Through Suffering and Why Do the Songs Matter?   Grammy Award nominee and Dove Award winner Matt Maher joins the Good Faith podcast for a conversation about the power of songs and church music to tell the truth about suffering. Reflecting on protest, justice, prophetic art, ecumenism, and even Rich Mullins, Maher explores how the church can hold lament and praise together while still pointing people to the hope and holiness of God. Drawing on Psalm 22 and Jesus' cry of abandonment on the cross, he argues that the church, like Jesus, must sing honestly about pain and abandonment without losing sight of the worship and honor God deserves.   *This episode was recorded live at the Illuminate Arts + Faith Conference   00:00:00  - Tease: The Duality of Abandonment and Praise 00:01:00 - Introduction from Curtis Chang 05:31 - Conversion and the Impact of Catholic Liturgy on His Faith 08:13 - Theology in Songwriting and Collaboration 09:57- Can Ecumenism Expand Your Perspective? 13:06 - John 17 and Praying for Church Unity  14:35 - Prophetic Calling Comforts the Afflicted and Challenges the Comfortable 16:38 - Protest Themes and the Burden of Truth 20:30 - Holding Space for Both Praise and Lament 21:55 - Christian Justice Movements and Prophetic Action 24:02 - The After Party Album and Amos's Call to Justice 24:11 - That He Will Overcome (musical insert) 26:29 - The Toppling of Empire Lyrics as Inspired by Dr. Mika Edmonson 29:04 - The Neurological and Physical Impact of Music on Memory and Community 34:03 - Personal Storytelling and Lament To Work Out Hard Things 40:00 - Rich Mullins' Influence and Legacy 41:24 - What Is The Song the Church Needs Now, In These Crazy Times? 43:48 - A Warning From Nazi Germany Against Ignoring Suffering   Take the Listener Survey Sign up for The After Party Sign up for The Good List   Mentioned In This Episode: The Nicene Creed and the History of the Council of Nicaea Matt Maher's Echoes album (Spotify) Matt Maher's Your Grace Is Enough Matt Maher's The Stories I Tell Myself Matt Maher's The Stories I Tell Myself (Acoustic video) Matt Maher, DOE, Dee Wilson, & The Porter's Gate's That We Might Overcome Listen to the album The Kingdom of Jesus: Songs For The After Party Rich Mullins' Canticle of The Plains (full album on Youtube) Rich Mullins' The Joy of Jesus (feat.

Democracy depends on finding common ground, yet politics have entered an era of what Director and Producer Dan Partland calls “extreme negative hyper-partisanship.” In a recent conversation, Dan discussed his upcoming documentary, UNFIT TOO, a sequel to his widely acclaimed film #UNFIT, which dissected the psychology of Donald Trump. This time, he seeks to look beyond Trump and Trumpism to examine how America can navigate out of this political and cultural divide.Dan explained the gravity of the situation, emphasizing how populism on both the right and left distorts democracy. “Populism is really about power...a ruthless majority,” Dan said. “Democracies can easily slip into that...what the study of psychology tells us is that these people are frequently...compelling...but it isn't necessarily good for the world.” Building on this analysis, the new documentary explores how polarization, populism, and societal divisions threaten democracy's core values of negotiation and representation.The concept behind UNFIT TOO takes the mission one step further: finding actionable strategies for individuals and communities to bridge the gaps between ideological divides. Dan sees this challenge reflected everywhere—from political discourse to fractured family dinners. He explained, “Every single family has been affected by this negative hyper-partisanship...What's the appropriate disposition towards that problem? How do you engage with people who you feel so different from?”As compelling as #UNFIT was in analyzing Donald Trump's leadership style, this sequel focuses on solutions. Dan noted that UNFIT TOO isn't just about diagnosing the current crisis but finding pathways to a more collaborative and functional democracy. The documentary aims to give audiences practical tools to discuss and address difficult, deep-rooted divides.Dan and his team are raising capital for UNFIT TOO through a regulated crowdfunding campaign on Wefunder. This approach reflects Dan's belief that business interests and philanthropy can align to create both cultural and social impact. Those interested in supporting the project can visit the campaign at s4g.biz/UNFIT.The success of #UNFIT, which became the top-selling documentary on Apple and a cultural phenomenon, is a testament to Dan's ability to tackle controversial and challenging topics in a meaningful way. UNFIT TOO promises to be equally impactful—a documentary that not only informs but also empowers Americans to reclaim the true spirit of democracy.tl;dr:Dan Partland's new documentary UNFIT TOO explores solutions to America's extreme polarization and populism.The film builds on the success of #UNFIT, examining Trump's psychology and its impact on politics.Dan describes populism as a key threat to democracy's representation, collaboration, and common-ground solutions.The sequel aims to provide tools for healing divides within families, communities, and broader political contexts.UNFIT TOO is raising funds via Wefunder, where business and philanthropy align for cultural impact.How to Develop Mission-Driven Leadership As a SuperpowerDan's superpower is his ability to unite people around a meaningful mission. Describing his work on documentaries like #UNFIT and now UNFIT TOO, Dan shared how engaging in mission-driven projects has fueled his work ethic and collaborations. “I really believe in... unifying people around a sense of mission,” Dan explained. For him, creating films that address real-world problems and inspire compassion in culture brings purpose to his work: “By aiming the lens at the real problems of real people, you engender more compassion.” Dan believes that great storytelling isn't just entertainment but a vehicle for social good, fostering collaboration and actionable impact.One project that exemplifies Dan's mission-driven approach was a documentary show embedded in a suburban high school, documenting students' trials and experiences. To align the production with the school's educational mission, Dan and his team created a filmmaking curriculum. This approach added value not only for the documentary but also for the students and community, demonstrating how mission-based work can serve diverse goals. Dan shared, “Creating this educational component...helped align with the project's objectives, amplifying the subjects' voices while advancing media literacy.”Tips for Developing This Superpower:Align Your Work with a Greater Purpose: Look for ways to connect your goals to real-world impact.Unify Teams Around Shared Missions: Create a sense of collective purpose for a project's success.Seek Collaborative Win-Wins: Ensure your work benefits stakeholders and participants in meaningful ways.Focus on Amplifying Social Good: Go beyond storytelling to highlight actionable change in your work.Cultivate Empathy Through Action: Use every opportunity to foster understanding, compassion, and collaboration.By following Dan's example and advice, you can make mission-driven leadership a skill. With practice and effort, you could develop this superpower to create impact and drive meaningful change in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileDan Partland (he/him):Director and Producer, UNFIT TOOAbout UNFIT TOO: UNFIT TOO is a feature-length documentary film being made to meet America's timely, urgent, and challenging moment.Website: wefunder.com/unfittooCompany Facebook Page: facebook.com/UnfitMovieCompany Twitter Handle: @duty2warnBiographical Information: Dan Partland is a veteran documentary producer and director whose work has defined nonfiction film and television over the past two decades.

Full Text of Readings Tuesday in the Octave of Easter Lectionary: 262 The Saint of the day is Saint John Baptist de La Salle Saint John Baptist de La Salle's Story Complete dedication to what he saw as God's will for him dominated the life of Saint John Baptist de La Salle. In 1950, Pope Pius XII named him patron of schoolteachers for his efforts in upgrading school instruction. As a young 17th-century Frenchman, John had everything going for him: scholarly bent, good looks, noble family background, money, refined upbringing. At the early age of 11, he received the tonsure and started preparation for the priesthood, to which he was ordained at 27. He seemed assured then of a life of dignified ease and a high position in the Church. But God had other plans for Saint John Baptist de La Salle, which were gradually revealed to him in the next several years. During a chance meeting with Monsieur Adrien Nyel, he became interested in the creation of schools for poor boys in Rheims, where he was stationed. Though the work was extremely distasteful to him at first, he became more involved in working with the deprived youths. Once convinced that this was his divinely appointed mission, Saint John Baptist de La Salle threw himself wholeheartedly into the work, left home and family, abandoned his position as canon at Rheims, gave away his fortune, and reduced himself to the level of the poor to whom he devoted his entire life. The remainder of his life was closely entwined with the community of religious men he founded, the Brothers of the Christian School (also called Christian Brothers or De La Salle Brothers). This community grew rapidly and was successful in educating boys of poor families, using methods designed by John. It prepared teachers in the first training college for teachers and also set up homes and schools for young delinquents of wealthy families. The motivating element in all these endeavors was the desire to become a good Christian. Yet even in his success, John did not escape experiencing many trials: heart-rending disappointment and defections among his disciples, bitter opposition from the secular schoolmasters who resented his new and fruitful methods, and persistent opposition from the Jansenists of his time, whose moral rigidity and pessimism about the human condition John resisted vehemently all his life. Afflicted with asthma and rheumatism in his last years, he died on Good Friday at age 68, and was canonized in 1900. Reflection Complete dedication to one's calling by God, whatever it may be, is a rare quality. Jesus asks us to “love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength” (Mark 12:30b, emphasis added). Paul gives similar advice: “Whatever you do, do from the heart…” (Colossians 3:23).Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

What does it mean for God to deal well with His people? How do we grow closer to Him in times of suffering? Psalm 119 verses 65-72 shows us the powerful character of the God who is good and does good. Through this psalm, we see God's bountiful gift of Himself and His Word to His people. We also see His active grace in the midst of our suffering. May we be encouraged to serve Him all the more as we study His Word!

But Peter followed Him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest. And he sat with the servants and warmed himself at the fire. Now the chief priests and all the council sought testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, but found none. For many bore false witness against Him, but their testimonies did not agree. Then some rose up and bore false witness against Him, saying, “We heard Him say, ‘I will destroy this temple made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands.' ” But not even then did their testimony agree. And the high priest stood up in the midst and asked Jesus, saying, “Do You answer nothing? What is it these men testify against You?” But He kept silent and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked Him, saying to Him, “Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?” Jesus said, “I am. And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.” Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, “What further need do we have of witnesses? You have heard the blasphemy! What do you think?” And they all condemned Him to be deserving of death. Then some began to spit on Him, and to blindfold Him, and to beat Him, and to say to Him, “Prophesy!” And the officers struck Him with the palms of their hands. Now as Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came. And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked at him and said, “You also were with Jesus of Nazareth.” But he denied it, saying, “I neither know nor understand what you are saying.” And he went out on the porch, and a rooster crowed. And the servant girl saw him again, and began to say to those who stood by, “This is one of them.” But he denied it again. And a little later those who stood by said to Peter again, “Surely you are one of them; for you are a Galilean, and your speech shows it.” Then he began to curse and swear, “I do not know this Man of whom you speak!” A second time the rooster crowed. Then Peter called to mind the word that Jesus had said to him, “Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.” And when he thought about it, he wept. - Homily - The Versicle (p. 122) - The Canticle (p. 123) - The Nunc Dimittis (p. 124) - The Kyrie (p. 124) - The Lord's Prayer (p. 125) - Hymn 584 - Grant Peace, We Pray, in Mercy, Lord - The Collect (pp. 125-127) - The Benedicamus (p. 127) - The Benediction (p. 127) - Hymn 333 - Christ, the Life of All the Living: vv. 1, 2,7 - Postlude Service Participants: Graham Parsons (Preacher), John Baumann (Organist)
