What does Jesus really mean when he says, "Be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect" (Matthew 5:48)? In a culture that equates perfection with flawless performance, the Sisters explore the freedom of authentic Christian perfection—a life rooted not in achievement, but in receiving the Father's love and learning to love as Christ loves. Discover how God uses our weaknesses, failures, and imperfections not as obstacles to holiness, but as the very places where his grace transforms us into saints. This season of Let Love is produced in collaboration with Ascension. If you'd like to receive our weekly show notes, as well as occasional updates from the Sisters of Life, text LETLOVE (one word) to 33777 to be added to our email list.

Fr. Mike reflects on how Isaiah's prophecies in chapters 49-50 point to the immediate reality of God's promise of redemption for Israel, as well as to the distant reality of Jesus Christ as the Messiah. In our reading of Ezekiel, we also learn how the glory of God departed from the temple, and how God's presence is often hidden from us as well. Today's readings are Isaiah 49-50, Ezekiel 10-11, and Proverbs 12:17-20. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

The Catechism moves on from bishops—the episcopacy—to priests in the presbyterate, who share in the bishop's ministry “in a subordinate degree”, to be “co-workers”. Fr. Mike dives deep into the service-leadership that priests are called to. “[A priest's] whole life must be configured and must be conformed to Jesus Christ the high priest.” Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 1562-1568. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

Elizabeth April, remote viewer and consciousness guide, reveals that our biggest barrier isn't external control—but giving away our attention to fear-based frequencies. The shadow government, synthetic frequencies, and CERN are distractions. True power comes from reclaiming your focus and choosing neutrality over emotional reaction.From remote viewing Jesus as a golden energy web to exposing the 2026 World Cup as a rigged battle between light and dark factions, Elizabeth shows why humanity is now at a tipping point. Stop feeding fear—start creating consciously. Your attention is the currency of life, and where you place it builds your reality.We explore CERN's timeline collapse, the split between old and new earth, 5D ascension, extraterrestrial DNA, and why chaos is the perfect frequency for manifestation.The new earth is waiting in your sovereign choice. Will you keep reacting to the puppet show—or finally step into your role as the creator?___

Discover why nervous system practices alone aren't enough, and what actually needs to change so you can stop repeating old cycles and start making real breakthroughs on your path.

As You Wish Talk Radio ECETI, Contact, and the Battle Between Control and Awakening James Gilliland welcomes Michael Jaco for a wide-ranging conversation about ECETI Ranch, UFO sightings, alleged targeting, spiritual protection, multidimensional beings, geopolitical collapse, ascension, timelines, inner-earth civilizations, and the shift from systems of control toward a higher-consciousness future. Guest Spotlight: Michael Jaco Michael Jaco returns to As You Wish Talk Radio after visiting ECETI Ranch with his wife. In the episode, he discusses his stated background in military and intelligence work, his experiences at the ranch, UFO and contact phenomena, remote viewing, alleged targeting, multidimensional themes, spiritual protection, geopolitical concerns, and his belief that humanity is moving through a major awakening process. The transcript notes that claims made during the program are preserved as speaker statements and should not be treated as independently verified facts. Michael Jaco's Visit to ECETI Ranch James Gilliland opens the episode by welcoming Michael Jaco and describing the time Jaco and his wife spent at ECETI Ranch, including skywatching and what Gilliland describes as ships interacting with people. Jaco briefly summarizes his stated biography, including his Navy SEAL, SEAL Team Six, CIA, remote viewing, and “secret space program” references, before praising ECETI as a place where direct experience removes doubt about UFO activity. Gilliland emphasizes his long-standing invitation for people to come see for themselves rather than simply accept anyone else's claims. UFO Community Politics, Targeting, and Controlled Narratives The early discussion turns toward the UFO community itself, with both Gilliland and Jaco criticizing what they describe as deception, competition, controlled narratives, and compromised figures within disclosure circles. They discuss claims about black helicopters, white helicopters, interference around events, and alleged efforts to disrupt authentic contact work. Gilliland says ECETI has decades of contact history and evidence, while Jaco argues that people who reveal uncomfortable truths are targeted, whereas “posers” or controlled opposition are promoted. COVID, Power Structures, and Corruption Claims The conversation then broadens into political, medical, and institutional claims, including discussion of COVID-19, vaccines, hospitals, Dr. Fauci, government agencies, and what the speakers describe as systems of control. Jaco and Gilliland frame these topics as part of a larger struggle involving elites, hidden influences, medical and military systems, and spiritual warfare. Because the transcript specifically flags medical, political, COVID-19, vaccine, hospital, and Dr. Fauci-related claims for verification, these portions should be summarized only as speaker statements rather than established fact. Multidimensional Beings, Anunnaki, Draco, and Galactic Councils Gilliland and Jaco move into metaphysical and galactic material, discussing Anunnaki, Draco, Pleiadians, Orion, Sirians, Andromedans, inner-earth beings, angelics, archangels, and councils of higher-dimensional beings. They describe a long-running cosmic conflict between service-to-self forces and service-to-others beings, comparing it to a dark-side/light-side struggle. Jaco suggests that understanding positive extraterrestrials and galactic councils is important for humanity, while Gilliland describes ancient lineages, multidimensional worlds, benevolent beings, and higher councils assisting Earth through its current transition. ECETI Guardians, Divine Feminine, and Spiritual Protection The episode also explores spiritual protection at ECETI Ranch. Jaco describes sensing Sasquatch, elementals, and protective energy around the property, while Gilliland speaks about guardian beings, elven beings, Bigfoot activity, and what he sees as the protection of high-integrity spiritual people. They also discuss the divine feminine, weather work, meditation, Qigong, and stories of allegedly redirecting fires, winds, and storms. Gilliland presents these experiences as part of the ranch's spiritual environment and its connection to nature, feminine energy, and higher guidance. Ascension, Timelines, and the Bifurcation of Worlds A central theme of the second half is the idea that Earth is undergoing an ascension process. Gilliland says Pleiadians have described “folding time” to help humanity move through crises, while Jaco says he has felt looming events dissolve before manifesting. The conversation covers solar flares, consciousness light, timeline shifts, the collapse of political and medical systems, and a possible bifurcation of worlds in which one reality collapses into self-service and control while another expands into harmony, abundance, and higher consciousness. Lion Beings, Forgiveness, and Closing Skywatch Invitation Near the end, Jaco asks about lion energy at ECETI, and Gilliland describes humanoid cat beings, panther beings, and seventh-dimensional lion beings connected to protection, healing, ancient guardianship, and the return of benevolent forces. They also discuss karma, universal law, forgiveness, restitution, and the idea that people can still shift toward the awakening and healing side if they sincerely change direction. The episode closes with Gilliland encouraging listeners to keep an open mind, loving heart, and pure intent, followed by skywatch audio describing ships, power-ups, and promotional material inviting listeners to join ECETI's programs, podcasts, skywatch videos, workshops, and store.

Fr. Mike touches upon the prophecy of judgment against Babylon and Israel, and how God still promises to be Israel's redeemer despite their disobedience. We also read about Ezekiel's vision of the temple and how the markings on the foreheads of the Israelites symbolizes the mourning of true worship, and also foreshadows Jesus' death on the Cross.

Sometimes the hardest person to forgive is ourselves. Today's Morning Light Meditation invites you to work with the transformative power of the Cosmic Diamond Violet Flame—a sacred combination of Archangel Gabriel's Diamond Light and Archangel Zadkiel's Violet Flame. Together, they lovingly dissolve old patterns, cut away self-judgment with the clarity of a diamond, and reveal the truth of who you are. If you've been carrying guilt, regret, shame, or the habit of losing yourself in relationships, let this meditation become a gentle act of self-compassion. The Violet Flame doesn't condemn the past—it transforms it into wisdom and freedom. You'll also be invited to sing Jennifer's uplifting Cosmic Diamond Violet Flame Chant, because when we sing, our hearts open, our vibration rises, and our prayers become even more powerful. Listen to the entire song here. https://jenniferruthrussell.bandcamp.com/track/cosmic-diamond-violet-flame May today's meditation help you forgive yourself, reclaim your light, and remember that you were never meant to carry yesterday into tomorrow. Inspired by Diana Cooper's The Archangel Guide to Ascension: 55 Steps to the Light.
Hard News on Friday with Tara Green and Rama Arjuna and guests Lion's Gate, Violet Fire, and the Shift of the Ages Rainbird, Tara, Rama, Caroline, Mother, and a Kryon recording explore Mayan calendar energies, Lammas harvest themes, solar and Schumann resonance shifts, political and galactic disclosure claims, channeled guidance, soul purpose, and the call to move through fear by remembering inner support and love. Opening the Council Fire and Reading the Mayan Energies This episode of Hard News on Friday opens with Rainbird welcoming listeners to Tara and Rama's Friday night program on BBS Radio Station One, then guiding the audience into breath, heart space, ancestors, guides, guardians, and a ceremonial council-fire setting. Rainbird calls in the seven galactic directions in the Mayan tradition, reads the Mayan calendar energies for the day and week ahead, and frames the transition from White Cosmic Wizard into the Blue Magnetic Eagle wave as a movement toward receptivity, timelessness, vision, service, and trust. The corrected transcript notes that spiritual, political, metaphysical, medical, astrological, and channeled claims are preserved as speaker statements and were not independently verified. Lammas, Harvest, Donations, and the Talking Stick Rainbird also connects the week's energies to Lughnasadh, or Lammas, describing it as the first of three harvest festivals and a seasonal turning point associated with bread, grain, corn, and gratitude. The opening segment includes listener-supported housekeeping, including BBS Radio expenses, Tara and Rama's living expenses, utility needs, PayPal information, mailing details, Rainbow Roundtable resources, and a GoFundMe reference. Rainbird then passes the talking stick, imagining it filled with fairies, feathers, rays, elementals, baked goods, harvest energy, and supportive frequencies before handing the program to Tara and Rama. Tara and Rama on Solar Energies, Disclosure, and Global Upheaval Tara and Rama describe the incoming energies as powerful, transformative, and connected to Lammas, the Schumann resonance, solar flares, and what they frame as planetary transfiguration. Rama reports conversations with Natasha and other figures, tying the week's energies to political allegations, the Zorro Ranch, Epstein-related stories, the White House, Israel, Hamas, Iran, the United States, and what he calls the collapse of old systems. He also presents metaphysical claims about the Anunnaki, Nephilim, the “13 families,” the matrix or holodeck program, the galactic federation, ascension, the Age of Aquarius, and the need to respond with love and Violet Fire. Rama's Weekly Update and Messages From the “Crew” Rama reads a weeklong update describing visits to Moon Mountain, Chama, St. John's College, Stonehenge-related energetic work, Aspen Meadows, and other locations, often accompanied by deer, crows, owls, bobcats, ravens, and cats. In these updates, he recounts text messages from Mr. X, Natasha, “the crew,” Professor Nicodemus, Dr. Steve, Darby Odell, Mr. Apps, and Lady Nada. The messages emphasize the “shift of the ages,” ancient extraterrestrial beings, Antarctica, the shutdown of the holodeck program, magnetic fields, portal technology, Stonehenge sound and light, disclosure, full moon energies, solar flares, peace, and the coming Lion's Gate. Caroline's Questions on Ancient Beings, Stargates, and NESARA Caroline then asks Rama to clarify who Mr. X means when referring to ancient extraterrestrials who are still present and immortal. Rama answers within the show's metaphysical framework, saying the reference is to the 13 families answering to the Anunnaki-Nephilim and to locations near vortexes, stargates, or portals. The conversation moves into claims about Tehran and Baghdad stargates, the military, Iran, Pentagon generals, Mother Sekhmet, galactic disclosure, and NESARA. Rama says NESARA is unfolding “big time,” but that peace must come first before the next stage can unfold. Mother's Channeled Message on Ascension, Healing, Climate, and Staying in the Body The program then shifts into a channeled Mother segment invoked through the Office of the Christ, Saint Germain, and the Violet Flame. Mother speaks about Lion's Gate, Sirius, the Council of Nine, star nations, ascension in the body, the idea that there is no death, cellular wisdom, solar plasma, Schumann resonance, magnetic waves, climate disruption, elementals, quantum particles, Stonehenge, ley lines, vortexes, planetary sound, astrology, and the restoration of memory. The segment also places Cheryl in a circle of support for surgery and speaks directly to trauma, suicide, water as a clearing force, the importance of remaining in the body, and the need to work with Mother Gaia through love, gratitude, and inner healing. Kryon on the Wind of Birth, Soul Support, and Choosing Courage The final major segment is a Kryon recording that reflects on the “Wind of Birth,” soul choice, God consciousness before incarnation, and the idea that each person came to Earth intentionally during a major shift. Kryon describes listeners as heroic souls who chose family, culture, gender, contracts, karma, awakening, and seed-planting for future humanity. The recording encourages listeners not to remain in suffering, fear, worry, or isolation, but to visualize comfort, move beyond their bubble, trust synchronicity, and remember that they are accompanied by a soul support group, guides, angelic presences, and their higher self. The episode closes with gratitude, Namaste, Aloha, and a reminder that listeners are “bigger” and more important than they may think.
Fr. Mike highlights the works of King Cyrus, who we met yesterday, and how he is able to contribute to the will of God without actually knowing him. Cyrus not only shows us that no soul is ever too far for God's grace, but that God makes all things new, and is able to bring beautiful blessings from the most desperate situations. Today's readings are Isaiah 45-46, Ezekiel 6-7, and Proverbs 12:9-12. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

The Catechism unpacks—by way of comparison—the “two participations in the one priesthood of Christ”: the common priesthood of all the faithful and the ministerial (or hierarchical) priesthood of the bishops and priests. Fr. Mike hones in on the ministerial priesthood as a means for Jesus to minister to his Church. His ministers act on his behalf in persona Christi Capitis: in the person of Christ, the Head. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 1546-1553.

Fr. Mike emphasizes our title as children of God as we read about the tragedy of the Babylonian exile. Even in our lowest moments, God wants us to know that he has called us each by name and has called us his, because a good Father does not abandon his children. Today's readings are Isaiah 43-44, Ezekiel 4-5, and Proverbs 12:5-8. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

The priesthood of the Old Covenant among the people of Israel is fulfilled in the one priesthood of Christ. The Catechism compares the Old Testament priesthood, “powerless to bring about salvation,” with the ordained ministry in the New Covenant. Fr. Mike unpacks the reality that there is only one true priest—Jesus Christ. His “priests” on earth are humble ministers. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 1539-1545.

"Do you think that I have come to establish peace on the earth? No, I tell you, but rather division. From now on a household of five will be divided, three against two and two against three; a father will be divided against his son and a son against his father, a mother against her daughter and a daughter against her mother, a mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.” Luke 12:51-53 Fr. Mike Schmitz shares how applicable these Bible verses are to us today. While addressing the controversy around his interview with Kim Zember, Fr. Mike also highlights the dangers of creating our own "version of Jesus" and how when we do that, division becomes easier and easier.

Kelly Kolodney, channeler of Archangel Raphael, reveals that our biggest barrier isn't trauma or ancestral baggage—but the belief that the light body is something to attain. Ascension isn't up. It's in. Dimensions aren't external layers—they're nested inside your DNA, waiting to unfold.From witnessing her sister channel poetry in a crowded kitchen to proving Raphael could deliver identical downloads to sequestered rooms, Kelly shows why humanity's next leap isn't about healing—it's about remembering. Stop reaching. Start revealing. Your light isn't a future achievement—it's an ancient truth covered by a thin veil.We explore the 2027 Egyptian eclipse, the White Lions anchoring heaven on earth, the gathering of 144,000 souls to dream a new reality, and why those with dementia or non-verbal autism are actually working between dimensions for the collective.The next human species isn't arriving from the sky—it's waking up inside your own heart. Will you keep trying to fix the old you—or finally surrender to the version that never left?___
