At the Vatican Basilica of St. Peter, the Altar of the Chapel of the Blessed Sacrament was desecrated when a man climbed onto the altar and threw the candlesticks and even the cross to the ground while the faithful were engaged in Eucharistic adoration.

Our Vision as a church is to echo the prophet Habakuk and "see the fame and deeds of God renewed and known in our time." To this end, our mission is to see lost New Yorkers, far from God, be transformed into compelling missional disciples. We believe this happens in three shifts: we want to see people go from Gospel resistance to experiencing the tangible presence of God, from a selfish orientation to pursuing counter formation in the way of Jesus, and from worldly ambition to living on sacrificial mission with the Holy Spirit. Rather than holding an emphasis in one of these areas, we believe that it is the intersection of these three things that creates a compelling disciple of Jesus.

"Direction, Not Perfection" is a Dharma Talk about the place that an Altar can hold in our practice. This talk is following up on our NYE Intention settings, checking in a few weeks later...this is often when the effort toward these intentions can start to wane. Establishing an Altar can help give some purpose and direction to our intention to establish or maintain a practice. And also this is in preparation for February when we will revive an old annual tradition within our Sangha where we use Sharon Salzberg's Real Happiness book, and try to build or bolster our daily routine of practice. I hope you find something useful in here, and I apologize for the weak delay in posting this. My schedule has included a lot of travel lately, so patience is appreciated! Enjoy!https://bio.reverendgeorgebeecher.com

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Read more about Project23 and partner with us as we teach every verse of the Bible on video. Our text today is Judges 21:21-23. If the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in the dances, then come out of the vineyards and snatch each man his wife from the daughters of Shiloh, and go to the land of Benjamin. And when their fathers or their brothers come to complain to us, we will say to them, 'Grant them graciously to us, because we did not take for each man of them his wife in battle, neither did you give them to them, else you would now be guilty.'" And the people of Benjamin did so and took their wives, according to their number, from the dancers whom they carried off. Then they went and returned to their inheritance and rebuilt the towns and lived in them. — Judges 21:21-23 Israel found a way to move on—but not to make it right. They buried the mess instead of confessing it. What started as a battle for justice ends in a festival of deception and abduction. It's a tragic cover-up wrapped in religious ceremony. They thought the problem was solved, but nothing was healed. They won the battle, but lost thousands of brothers. Their sin was buried—but not gone. When we bury sin, it doesn't disappear; it festers. We might hide it beneath success, busyness, or excuses, but buried sin always resurfaces. It's like sweeping dirt under the carpet—sooner or later, someone lifts the rug, and everything hidden spills out. We do this all the time. We ignore the conflict instead of confronting it. We hide our struggles instead of confessing them. We mask pain with performance, hoping time will heal what only repentance can restore. But here's the truth: you can't bury what God wants to heal. Israel needed confession, not cover-up. They needed repentance, not rationalization. And so do we. If you've been burying something—anger, bitterness, guilt, or sin—it's time to uncover it before God. Confession doesn't expose you to shame; it opens you to grace. God can only heal what you bring into the light. So lift the rug. Let God sweep the room clean. Don't live with lumps under your life—bring them to the One who can make all things new. ASK THIS: What sin or issue have I been hiding instead of confessing? Have I mistaken covering up sin for moving on? What "carpets" in my life need to be lifted before God? How can I create space for honesty and healing this week? DO THIS: Ask God to reveal anything you've been burying in your heart. Stop sweeping things under the rug—let grace do the cleaning. PRAY THIS: Lord, I've hidden what You want to heal. Expose my heart with Your light. Help me confess what I've buried and receive Your grace instead of guilt. Don't let me live with sin under the carpet—cleanse me completely. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Come to the Altar."

From Ruins to Renewal | Rebuilding the Altar and Temple Foundations - Jim Buchan by MCC

Noah stepped off the ark into a soaked, uncertain world and his immediate response wasn't shelter, food, or self-congratulation. Instead, he built an altar and offered costly sacrifice, unlocking a divine covenant no one expected. Join Pastor Eric as we see how this pattern still shapes breakthrough today: the altar precedes the promise every time.Scripture referenced in this message:· Genesis 8:13-21Learn more about salvation, info about Destiny Church, or how to give by visiting our website.Real | Relevant | Relationship

This Sunday, Pastor Keithen Schwahn continued our sermon series, God Comes Where He's Wanted, with a teaching on the altar of the home, drawing from the story of Gideon in Judges 6 and the words of Jesus in Matthew 18. We need to confront the brokenness of the altar of the home in our culture and take responsibility for the next generation. In Judges 6, we see the great danger of generational drift when vision is not matched with action, reminding us that renewal begins with tearing down the idols that compete for our devotion. As God restores Gideon's identity and calls him into partnership, we are urged to pursue fully integrated lives marked by obedience and faithfulness to remove idols. In Matthew 18, we are reminded of Jesus' deep care for children, and we are all invited to fight for the future of the church by blessing young people, breaking generational cycles, and intentionally passing on faith.

On the 5th anniversary of Courageous Church, we discuss how God expects our full sacrifice, withholding nothing as we go ALL IN.

"Then Joshua built an altar unto the Lord God of Israel in mount Ebal" (Joshua 8:30).

Pastor Sean Gasperetti calls us to restore the altar of the heart by offering our whole lives as a living sacrifice to God. Drawing from Romans 12, he challenges believers to stop conforming to the patterns of the world and be transformed by the renewing of the mind. When Christ truly rules the heart, worship becomes all of life—and the world is blessed.

The Sound that Stirs Heaven!Meet me at the Altar!

When the Holy Spirit gives you that gentle nudge to come close—say YES. Every yes builds a new altar in your life where His fire can fall and His presence can flow like living water. God is burning away every weight, every hindrance, every lie, and He's filling hearts with purity, freedom, and fresh passion. He's making us walking flames of fire—diffusers of His peace, love, and glory everywhere we go. What the enemy tried to bury, God is reopening and making deeper, wells of His presence that cannot be stopped. This is a season of reset, fresh consecration, and deeper communion with the Father's heart. Get ready to carry His fire without limits and overflow with His life into every area of your world.

This Sunday, Pastor Sam Gibson kicked off our January series, God Comes Where He's Wanted, with a teaching on the central importance of the altar of the heart. Scripture and revival history remind us that God moves where He is deeply desired, and that hunger for His presence is the true catalyst for renewal. While we cannot control when or how God moves, we are invited to cultivate hearts that welcome Him. Though our hearts are often damaged by this world and can become dull or divided, as we yield to God's healing and return to daily dependence on the Gospel and God's Word, we make room for the Holy Spirit to renew us and allow God's life to flow through us once again.

Pastor Jack Graham kicks off the new series “All In” delving into the book of Romans. In today's message, “All on the Altar,” Pastor Graham teaches from Romans, chapter 12 – what he calls one of the great chapters in all of God's Word – encapsulating what it means to live the Christian life.

What does real success look like when you're trying to stay grounded as a Ben Torah?In this episode of Shtark Tank, I sat down with Laizer Kornwasser — CEO of DrFirst, professor at Yeshiva University, and Chairman of NCSY — for a wide-ranging conversation about ambition, pressure, leadership, and the Torah ideas that shape how we show up at work and in life.Laizer shares stories from investment banking and the C-suite, including how he learned to earn his “seat at the table” through facts, results, and humility. We talk about drawing clear lines when work clashes with Shabbos, why most people aren't cut out for investment banking, and how to define success in a way that protects your priorities.Then we shift into a deep dive on the Altar of Slabodka: Gadlus HaAdam, EQ vs IQ, gratitude, and the power of seeing each person as an individual with real potential.And yes — we get into the now-famous practice: why Laizer handwrites 1,000 New Year's cards and sends personal thank-you messages one-by-one, and what it teaches about hakaras hatov, relationships, and leadership.In this episode, we cover:Why investment banking is “not cut out for most people”What “success” really means when you're trying to grow in YiddishkeitThe importance of knowing your line in the sand (and not crossing it)A real story: a CEO tried to push Shabbos boundaries — and Laizer's response“Facts, not emotion”: how to communicate with different personalitiesThe Altar of Slabodka's approach to building people, not just teaching TorahEQ as a Jewish leadership skill, not just a business buzzwordWhy Laizer sends personal thank-yous instead of mass messagesChesed that actually changes you (not just “check-writing”)If you got value from this episode, please take 10 seconds to subscribe and leave a 5-star rating — it helps more people find the show.

Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. Isaiah 43:18–19 (KJV)   I Resolve   I resolve… To seek God daily, not just occasionally,   To breathe His Word in rhythm, faithfully, relationally.   I resolve… To trust His timing, not rush the plan,   To wait with patience, resting in His hand.   I resolve… To walk in obedience, though the path feels tight,   To step through discomfort, still choosing what's right.   I resolve… To guard my mind, my heart, my soul,   To keep His Spirit steady, making Him my goal.   I resolve… To forgive quickly, to love with intention,   To heal with mercy, beyond all convention.   I resolve… To show up for worship, to grow and to stay,   To honor His presence in each passing day.   I resolve… To step into purpose, not retreat in fear,   To claim the calling that God made clear.   And so I commit— To walk forward with God, my anchor, my guide,   Through valleys and peaks, His will I'll abide.   No turning back, no shadowed disguise,   I resolve to live boldly, with faith in my eyes.
