How did this message challenge or reshape your definition of the blessed life?2. How is God's definition of blessed different than ours?Choosing Character on Purpose (1 Pet. 3:8-9)3. Peter lists inner qualities like unity, compassion, humility, and blessing others. Which one is hardest for you to live out consistently?Blessing Those Who Wrong You (1 Pet. 3:9)4.

Most work as farmers, craftsmen, and carpet makers within close-knit family communities. They are entirely Muslim with little access to the gospel since Scripture translation is only just beginning. This is a largely forgotten people, yet not forgotten by God. Pray for the message of Jesus to reach them through creative means, for believing families to live among them, and for the Khorasani Turk to encounter Christ as Lord.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 02/15 62,919Giving For 02/22 30,796YTD Budget 1,176,923Giving 1,517,917 OVER/(UNDER) 340,994 Fellowship Youth & College Silent Auction | March 8 | 4 pm - 6pmJoin us for a fun evening supporting our mission trips to Arlington, TX, and the Czech Republic!

Life in a Great Marriage(1 Peter 3:1-7)Message SlidesHousehold Expectations in the First Century - NIV Study BibleGod, Sex & Marriage - SlatteryBeyond Crotchety Husbands and Onery Wives - SwindollPeter on Marriage - Allen RossThe Significance for Marriage Today - Karen JobesMarriage - J.I. PackerSubmission - Jim SamraFor the bulletin in PDF form, click here.Definitions: • Marriage: One man and one woman in a covenant relationship of mutual submission and love for life. • Wives: God's gracious gift of beauty, reflecting His grace given to men as an asset to complete and redeem them. • Husbands: God's gracious gift of strength, reflecting God's power given to women as an asset to complete and redeem them.Words for WivesSubmit to God's will for your husband. • The Command: Submission is a proper response to authority which maintains dignity, honor & equality as a reflection of the Trinity and takes place in the context of mutual submission (3:1a) •. The Context: Disobedient Husbands—ἀπειθεω (apeitheo) disobedient, antagonistic, apathetic to the Word and will of God (3:1b) • The Outcome: Won Over to God's Will —the goal is spiritual growth (3:1c) • The Manner: Quiet and Gentle Spirit—without nagging, but with quiet confidence in the Lord and your love for your husband on full display (3:1d-2) • The Misunderstanding: Outward Beauty vs. Inward Beauty—Character counts more than physical appeal with these important matters (3:3-4) • The Example: Sarah in Genesis —she knew God's will for Abraham and moved toward the realization of that goal 18 (3:5-6a) • The Challenge: Fear— (3:6b)Help for HusbandsWith growing insight, respect your wife as a gift from God. • The Command: Be Considerate—γνωσις keen knowledge, insight, and tact (3:7a) • The Context: You Live with Them—a growing relationship of honor & dignity (3:7b) • The Manner: Treat Them with Respect—απονεμοντες τιμην (rendering honor, respect), acknowledging their value with gratitude, honor, respect (3:7c) • The Need: Fragile Equal Partners—equal but different (3:7d) • The Outcome: Answered Prayer—The health of your marriage is a spiritual matter (3:7e)Marriages with spiritually strategic, submissive wivesand intentionally insightful, respectful husbandsmake the gospel look good.“Sanctify Christ as Lord in Your Heart”Furthermore, it is my firm conviction that we have placed the wrongemphasis on the word “submission”; we have also been preoccupiedwith “what we can do” and “what our rights are,” whereas the biblicalinjunction is that the wife ought to give her life to her husband, “to serve andcherish him” and the husband ought to lay down his life for his wife. Scot McKnightHome Church Questions 1. How does Peter define marriage in this passage—as a personal relationship, a spiritual partnership, or a gospel witness? How does viewing marriage primarily as a platform for God's glory reshape our expectations of it?2. How does the fact that we are to submit to God's will for our marriages—not our spouse's will for us—change your view of your role in your marriage?3. In verses 1–2, why does Peter address wives first, and how does submission function as obedience to God rather than submission to sin or abuse?4. What does Peter mean when he says a husband may be “won without a word” (3:1)? How does godly conduct communicate the gospel more powerfully than arguments or pressure?5. How do verses 3–4 challenge cultural ideas of beauty, worth, and influence—especially for women? What does cultivating a “quiet and gentle spirit” look like in today's fast-paced and opinion-driven culture?6. Why does Peter point to Sarah as an example in verses 5–6, and how does faith-driven obedience overcome fear in marriage? What categories of fear commonly hinder trust in God's design for marriage today?7. According to verse 7, what responsibilities does Peter place on husbands, and why is spiritual leadership inseparable from consideration and honor? How does treating a wife as an “equal heir of the grace of life” challenge passive or authoritarian models of leadership?8. Peter warns that mistreating one's wife can hinder prayer (3:7). How does this connection between marriage and spiritual life reinforce the idea that marriages with submissive wives and respectful husbands make the gospel visible and credible?UPG FOCUS: The Mussali in PakistanThe Mussali are a marginalized Muslim people in Punjab, Pakistan, historically forced into Islam and carrying low social status. Many work in sanitation and other overlooked jobs. Though New Testament resources exist in their language, few have heard the gospel. Pray that God would stir spiritual hunger among the Mussali, raise up workers, and reveal Christ as their true hope.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 02/01 378,325Giving For 02/08 60,963YTD Budget 1,107,692Giving 1,424,238 OVER/(UNDER) 316,546 Fellowship Youth & College Silent Auction | March 8 | 4 pm - 6pmJoin us for a fun evening supporting our mission trips to Arlington, TX, and the Czech Republic!

Living as Servants of God1 Peter 2:13-25 Message SlidesFor the bulletin in PDF form, click here. We are called to live faithfully under human authority: - Government - Masters We are called to live faithfully under human authority- even when it's difficult: - Government - Masters Why we can live faithfully under authority even when it's difficult: - Obeying Our Ultimate Authority - Following the Example How we can live faithfully under authority even when it's difficult: - Don't Repay Evil with Evil - Trust the Judge - Look to ChristHome Church Questions1. What are some examples of authority you have experienced throughout your life? When has it been a good experience, and when has it been challenging? 2. Peter calls his audience to be subject to government (1 Peter 2:13-17) and masters (1 Peter 2:18-20). Is this surprising or difficult for you? Why do you think God wants His people to learn to submit to authority? 3. God's people are called to submit to authority even when it's difficult. Think of an example in your life when this was difficult. Did you learn any lessons from this experience? How might God be calling you to submit right now in a way that is challenging?4. What are some verses in this passage that reveal we are ultimately obeying God when we submit to authority? On the other hand, what are some examples in the Bible when God's people had to disobey the government because of their obedience to God? 5. According to 1 Peter 2:21, why should we submit to authority even when it is difficult? Do you think of following in Jesus' steps as being easy or hard? What is an area in your life you are being called to follow in Christ's steps now?6. 1 Peter 2:22-23 describes how Jesus responded and how we should respond as we follow His example. What part of these verses stands out as the most challenging for you in your situation right now?7. Jesus gave us an example to follow, but He also gave us more than an example. Read 1 Peter 2:24-25. Put in your own words what Jesus has done for us? Pray for the Unreached: The Lunia (Hindu traditions) in IndiaThe Lunia are a large Hindu people group in northern India. Historically placed in the lowest caste, many work in farming, construction, and manual labor, with limited access to education. Though Scripture and gospel resources exist in Hindi, there are no known believers among the Lunia. Pray that God would open doors for the gospel to be clearly seen and heard, and that entire families would come to faith in Christ and begin multiplying house churches.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 02/01 378,325Giving For 02/08 60,963YTD Budget 1,107,692Giving 1,424,238 OVER/(UNDER) 316,546 Ash Wednesday | February 18 | 7 am - 8:30 pm We are opening a space in the second-floor Fireside Room for prayer and confession Wednesday, February 18, from 7:00 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. to prepare our hearts for celebrating Jesus' resurrection.

INTRODUCTION: A Biblical Theology of Moral PurityThe Battle for Your SoulBelievers should actively make decisions in step with their identity. Cultural Values: Our family values do not fit a “me first” culture. (2:11a).Wrangling Desire: The real battle is the deep desires of your human nature (2:11b).High Stakes: The very essence of who you are hangs in the balance (2:11c).“Abstain” - άπέχω - to have or fully hold back, to have full control ofLifestyle EvangelismOur conduct impacts others in eternity.Attention: Your “walk” talks louder than your “talk” talks! (2:12a).Audience: The world is watching (2:12b).Accountability: Eventually, everything comes into the light (2:12c).“Keep” - έχω - to have or hold fast, have the resources ready for useThe way we live our lives and manage our deepest desireshas an impact on our very core identityand has an influence on others and eternity.“It's simple, but it is hard.”It's not hard because it's complex; it's because it's simple. Marriage [and spiritual growth] are hard, but it comes down to practicing a few simple things. Simple doesn't mean easy. Often it's actually difficult. Patrick LencioniHome Church QuestionsIdentity First:Peter calls believers “sojourners and exiles” again in this passage. How does remembering your identity in Christ as distinct from the world change the way you view temptation and purity?The Real Battle:Verse 11 says fleshly desires “wage war against the soul.” What are some ways you've seen corrupt desire shift from a momentary temptation into something that affects your spiritual vitality? It is a choice betwen life and death!“Abstain” as a Volitional Act of Self-Control:The word “abstain” implies holding back fully—have real and full control. It is taking seriously that we are volitional beings. What does biblical self-control look like in real life (not just avoiding sin, but actively fighting)?Culture vs. Christ:Where do you feel the strongest pressure from today's “me first” culture? How does that pressure show up in what you consume, desire, or justify?Purity and a Winsome Witness:Peter connects our conduct to evangelism. Why do you think the credibility of the gospel is often judged by the purity and character of Christians? Talk about why that should not matter, but it still does.When Accused Wrongly:Verse 12 says unbelievers often harshly judge Christians as evildoers or at least believe we have a “Strange Religion”. How should Christians respond when we're misunderstood or accused—especially in moral areas?Practical Next Step:What is one daily habit (or weekly practice) that would help you “keep your conduct honorable” and strengthen your spiritual readiness this week?UPG FOCUS: The Northern Zaza or Türkiye (Turkey)The Northern Zaza are a Kurdish people group living in eastern Turkey who follow a unique form of Islam shaped by mysticism and older traditions. They have faced long-standing marginalization and currently have no known believers, though some gospel resources exist in their language. Pray that God would open hearts, reveal Christ to them, and send faithful workers to share the hope of the gospel.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 01/25 28,180Giving For 02/01 378,325YTD Budget 1,073,077Giving 1,363,275 OVER/(UNDER) 290,198 Souper SundayFellowship, we're collecting food items for Bethlehem House TODAY!

The Importance of God's Word at the Beginning of Our Journey The Importance of God's Word Throughout Our Journey The Importance of God's Word for the End of Our JourneyHome Church Questions1. 1 Peter 1:22-2:3 explores the importance of God's Word for our journey as exiles and sojourners. What are some similarities between God's Word and a trail map? 2. Look through the passage and identify the terms and phrases Peter uses to describe God's Word and the message of the Bible. How would you summarize the core message of the Bible (the Gospel)? 3. In 1:23, he says we are born again through the Word of God. In what way was the Word of God involved in your conversion? Why is the Word of God necessary as we consider reaching other people with the Gospel? 4. In our passage, “loving one another” and “valuing God's Word” are closely related. What are some ways they are related according to this passage? Do you think of God's Word primarily in the context of “the individual and God's Word” or do you think of it in the context of “God's people and God's Word”? What should this look like? 5. Have you ever longed for the pure spiritual/rational/logical milk of God's Word (2:2)? Do you long for it now? If not, what are some steps you can take to develop a hunger for God's Word? 6. What are the consequences of seeking to experience God apart from His Word? What are the consequences of seeking to experience the Bible without experiencing God? Which of these extremes do you gravitate toward? Explain why. 7. Peter references Isaiah 40 and encourages his readers that “the Word of the Lord remains forever” (1:24-25). We can be confident that God will finish what He started. In what area of your life do you need to be encouraged right now that God's Word endures forever, and He will finish what He has started? Pray for the Unreached: The Abai Sungai in Malaysia The Abai Sungai are a tiny Muslim fishing community in Sabah, Malaysia, with nearly all 1,600 people living in a single village. Their faith blends Islamic practice with fear of the evil eye and local animistic beliefs. With no Scripture, no audio resources, and no known believers, they remain one of the most spiritually isolated peoples in Southeast Asia.

Hopeful and Holy Sojourners1 Peter 1:13-21 Message SlidesFor the bulletin in PDF form, click here. Set Your Hope Fully On The Grace (v.13) Be Holy In All Your Conduct (v.15) Conduct Yourselves With Fear (v.17)Home Church Questions1. What is an example of a journey (like backpacking, hiking, or a road trip) you have experienced in your life? What were some of the joys of the journey and what were some of the challenges? What are some ways that journey compares with the Christian faith?2. Setting our hope fully on God's future grace involves thinking clearly and “locking in” (v.13). What are the challenges in your life that keep you from thinking clearly? What steps can you take to address those challenges?3. What does it look like practically to put our hope fully in future grace (v.13)? What are some things we put our hope in instead of future grace? 4. We said we are called to holiness in all of our conduct, including Saturday night and Sunday morning (v.15)! What day/time/part of your life is the most challenging to pursue holiness? What are some steps you can take to walk in holiness in that area?5. 1 Peter 1:14-16 includes a call to holiness, but it also includes several significant reasons we should be motivated for holiness. What are some reasons, and which one is most motivating to you? 6. 1 Peter 1:17 says, “conduct yourselves with fear throughout the time of your exile” (v.17). Is this verse consistent with how you view fearing God, or does it challenge the way you think? How should we think about “conducting ourselves with fear”?7. We are supposed to view God as Father and Judge based on v.17. Do you tend to go to the extreme that emphasizes Father but ignores Judge? Or do you tend to go to the extreme that emphasizes Judge but ignores Father? What does it look like to view Him as both Father and Judge in a healthy way?8. What trial are you experiencing that your Home Church can be praying for you about? Do you need prayer that you would be more hopeful, more holy, or have more humble fear? Pray for the Unreached: The Java Mancanegari in Indonesia The Java Mancanegari of East Java are a deeply cultural and spiritually mixed people, blending Islam with older Hindu and animistic practices. Life centers around agriculture, community traditions, and ceremonies involving spirit trances, reflecting a worldview shaped by fear of unseen powers. Though they have Scripture in their language, very few follow Jesus, and spiritual strongholds keep many blinded to the truth. Pray for the Holy Spirit to break spiritual bondage, for the gospel to take root through faithful workers, and for a movement of disciples who lead their communities toward the freedom found in Christ.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 01/04 44,237Giving For 01/11 25,440YTD Budget 969,231Giving 920,548 OVER/(UNDER) (48,683)Fellowship Night of WorshipEach year at our Night of Worship, we gather in a circle with the band on the floor alongside the congregation, creating an intimate and meaningful space to begin the year together.

Grieved by Various Trials1 Peter 1:6-12 Message SlidesFor the bulletin in PDF form, click here. We can endure trials because we know they are temporary. We can endure trials because we know they are necessary. We can endure trials because we know the bigger picture. Home Church Questions1. What are some examples of trials you experience in your life? What are some examples of trials we experience since we are “elect exiles” (1:1)? In other words, what types of conflict should a Christian expect to experience? 2. We can endure trials because we know they are temporary (1:6). Share an example of a trial you experienced when you were younger that you no longer experience. What advice would you give to your younger self? How might this advice apply to you today? 3. Our suffering and trials are temporary, and they lead to future glory (1:7). Does the thought of future glory motivate you to faithfully endure and rejoice now? What are some of the specific aspects of future glory that are most motivating to you? What should we do if we are not motivated by this biblical teaching?4. We can endure trials because we know they are necessary (1:6-9). Have you come through any trials in the past that you can look back to and see how your faith was strengthened and proven genuine through it? How might this experience encourage you in your faith today?5. What is an example of a trial you are experiencing now? In what ways can you respond and react to that trial and demonstrate the genuineness of your faith? 6. We can endure trials because we know the bigger picture (vv.10-12). What insights from vv.10-12 are especially fascinating to you?7. How does thinking about “the sufferings of Christ and the subsequent glories” transform our understanding of trials (v.11)? Spend some time meditating on the life and ministry of Jesus and how this should impact our response to our trials.Pray for the Unreached: The Hausa in Nigeria The Hausa are one of the largest and most influential peoples in West Africa, with deep cultural ties to Islam that make gospel breakthrough extremely difficult. Though they have Scripture and many ministry resources in their language, most remain resistant due to strong religious identity and social pressure. Life can still be challenging, with low literacy and limited opportunities, especially for women. Pray that God would soften hearts among the Hausa, open doors for gospel workers, and raise up local believers who courageously share Christ where following Him is costly.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 12/28 23,342Giving For 01/04 44,237YTD Budget 934,615Giving 895,109 OVER/(UNDER) (39,506) Fellowship Night of WorshipEach year at our Night of Worship, we gather in a circle with the band on the floor alongside the congregation, creating an intimate and meaningful space to begin the year together.

You can buy a copy here: https://amzn.to/3LkFPxk  https://youtube.com/live/kiArl9R5CJs About The Citadel Weapon of the Dark Queen Against a darkened cloud it comes, framed by thunder and lightning, soaring over the ravaged land: the flying citadel, mightiest power in the arsenal of the dragon highlords. In an age of war, an evil wizard learned the secret of creating these castles in the air and sought to use them to gain power over all Krynn. Against him were ranged a red-robed magic-user, a cleric, an ancient warrior, and — naturally — a kender. Their battle shook the skies of Krynn. Review Intro Welcome to another DragonLance Saga review episode. It is Majetag, Newkolt the 6th. My name is Adam and today I am going to give you my review of The Citadel by Richard A. Knaak. I would like to take a moment and thank the DLSaga members and Patreon patrons, and invite you to consider becoming a member or patron. You can even pick up Dragonlance media using my affiliate links. This is my perspective only, and if you have any thoughts or disagree with mine, I invite you to share them in YouTube chat. Review This is a solid start to a story. We are in Christine with the red robe wizard Tyrus and white robe Leot. They are researching when the city is attacked by General Markus Cadrio. He was a former member of the Black Dragon Army who was trying to rally an army around him. He commands dragons, gargoyles and two citadels which pummel Crystine. However, the city is protected by two gold dragons who fight off many of the attackers. The gargoyles take the wizards, but Tyrus falls. He wakes after the battle to Captain Bakal who shares the outcome. Immediately Tyrus wants to travel to get back his friend Leot. He goes to the gold dragons who refuse, as one is ready to deliver her eggs.  Cardio is met by a wizard named Valkan who wants to raise another Citadel in Atrium, so he travels there and they sacrifice Lemuel, a cleric of Takhisis to raise this new, but different citadel. They use it to destroy the town of Norwich, but the new citadel destroyed one of Cadrio's other citadels in the process as well as fighting off the silver dragons defending the town. This infuriates Cadrio who doesn't feel he can trust Valkan. Back in Crystine, Tyrus is visited by a cleric of Branchala named Serene who asks where Cadrio is. He doesn't know but he asks if she needs help, and introduces her to Captain Bakal. They travel with twelve soldiers to meet up with a kender named Rap who invites griffons to carry them all in search of General cardio. They eventually arrive at Norwich, shocked at the devastation and remains of a flying citadel. They suddenly realized there was motion in the clouds, and saw the Atrium citadel flying, concealed in the clouds. They moved to intercept it as they sent Rap to Gwynned to get the Gold Dragons to aid in the attack. Simultaneously, the gargoyles that served Valkan were beginning to mutiny as Stone was speaking with both General Cardio and Tyrus about helping either of them overthrow Valkan. Once the battle began it was a brutal one, with lightning striking and decimating foes. The black dragons joined and the gold dragons were defeated. Serene and Tyrus were taken into the Citadel as captives as it slowly made its way to Gwynned. General Cadrio and Vulkan were at each other’s throats as well, vying to power, but Vulkan is clearly the victor. Selene realized that the love of her life she was searching for, is actually Vulkan, but was shocked to see the transformation in him. Vulkan showed Tyrus how he has been powering the citadel, through the life force of captured magi. Including Tyrus' friend Leot. He then curses him to be unable to cast magic, and imprisons Tyrus again. Tyrus is saved by a gargoyle and Leot, and escapes to report to Captain Bakal. Together they come up with  a scheme to stop the Citadel before it reached to Gwynned. Captain Bakal, Tyrus, and Serene once again invaded the citadel as it was staged to attack, and Tyrus was captured and replaced Leot as the power cell. Rap went to save him and was killed by Valkan. Serene began to take control of the citadel and the gargoyles attacked each other. Valkan was playing General Cadrio off his officer Zander, as they fought the gold dragons with the black dragons. In the Atrium citadel, they destroyed the help which steers the citadel, but needed to also destroy the magical columns which powered it. Tyrus sent Bakal and Serene off and he went to destroy Valkan, the calendars or both. When he arrived, Valkan was busy focusing on the power, but after a short battle Tyrus sent his staff hurtling toward a calendar and destroyed it, and the citadel began falling from the sky. Valkan was caught under rubble and doomed, as the gargoyles in his service fled. Outside the griffons saved them from the falling fortress as it plummeted onto its own army far below. Tyrus ended up living, and they made a cairn for Rap where he trained the griffons. THe gargoyles came to pay homage to the heroes and went off as free beings. All in all the story was interesting but I had no idea when it was set. It kept referencing the war of the lance and even kitiara, but then made mention of the gods leaving, but everyone used magic, so I am just confused. I suppose it doesn't really matter, as Knaak put together an entertaining story with a horrid villain and interesting characters. If you are a completionist, you should read this novel, but otherwise I think you could skip it. Outro And that's it for my review of The Citadel by Richard A. Knaak. When do you think the story was set? Do you like the new type of citadel? And finally, will we ever see citadels in the age of mortals? Feel free to email me at info@dlsaga.com or leave a comment below.  I would like to thank Creator Patron Aaron Hardy, Producer Patron Azrael, and Developer Patrons Chris Androu & Sam Ruiz!

In what ways do you currently feel like an alien or outsider in the world (e.g., culturally, morally, relationally)? How does knowing you are “chosen by God” reshape that feeling?2. If this world is not our ultimate home, how should that truth affect the priorities and investments we make day-to-day (time, money, relationships, ambitions)?Chosen by God: The Trinitarian Foundation of Salvation (1:2)3. The text says we are chosen “for obedience to Jesus Christ and for sprinkling with his blood.” How does understanding election (being chosen by God) motivate obedience?4. Sanctification by the Spirit is an ongoing process. Where have you seen evidence of the Spirit's sanctifying work in your life recently?Where do you sense resistance or need for greater surrender?A Living Hope: The Past, Present & Future of Salvation (1:3–5)5. How does Christ's resurrection give your hope a quality that is different from mere optimism or positive thinking?6. How does meditating on this heavenly inheritance free you from fear, envy, or over-attachment here and now?7. What does it mean to you that God Himself is actively protecting your faith and future salvation? How does this truth bring comfort when you feel spiritually vulnerable or when faith feels weak?8. Peter begins by focusing on the glories of salvation rather than their suffering. Why do you think he does this?UPG FOCUS: The Deaf in Pakistan The Deaf live with significant isolation due to communication barriers. Few people know Pakistan Sign Language, limiting education, work, and relationships. Most are Muslim with almost no access to Scripture or gospel resources they can understand. Pray for God to reveal Christ to the Deaf of Pakistan through dreams, visions, and clear communication. Ask for sign-language Scripture efforts to advance and for workers to love and serve this unreached community.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 12/21 30,280Giving For 12/28 23,342YTD Budget 900,000Giving 850,872 OVER/(UNDER) (49,128) Fellowship 101New to Fellowship?

#111 The Truth About The Truth About Phyllis Twigg: From the First Radio Drama to the Latest

The British Broadcasting Century with Paul Kerensa

On Christmas Eve 1922, Britain's first original radio drama The Truth About Father Christmas by Phyllis Twigg was broadcast on the early BBC. On Christmas Eve 2025, Britain's latest radio drama The Truth About Phyllis Twigg is broadcast on BBC Radio 4, bringing back to life a little of that first radio play, the tale behind it, and fictionalising some of the quest to help give credit where credit's due. This new drama for Radio 4 is produced by B7 Media and written by Paul Kerensa, who also hosts this podcast - so yes after 111 episodes we've finally brought some of the early BBC story (in this unofficial non-BBC podcast - for tis not made by/with/under them) to today's BBC. Thanks if you've listened to or supported the podcast in any way, as it's all helped make it happen. It takes a village! You are that village. Thanks, village! Episode 72 of this podcast told the tale of Phyllis, and how her achievement as first radio dramatist (we can talk about the American one from a year earlier) seemed to fade from history books as Richard Hughes and his A Comedy of Danger gradually took over as 'first radio drama'. Hmm, what an oddity. With neither a recording nor a surviving script, it was nice to discover a short story version of The Truth About Father Christmas, under Phyllis' pen name - so with that, I pitched the idea to radio drama producer Helen Quigley of B7 Media, and she pitched it to Radio 4's Drama Commissioning Editor - who gladly agreed there was a tale to tell. So on the day this podcast lands, so does our radio drama. We're proud of it - we hope you like it. If you don't, that's fine too. It's not perfect, but it's out there! #JusticeforPhyllis - and that's the goal, hopefully via some festive entertainment for your ears. On this accompanying podcast (unofficial - as it's not BBC), I chat to the cast, crew and descendants of Phyllis Twigg the writer and Arthur Burrows the voice behind Father Christmas, and the man who commissioned her in the first place. So on this bumper episode, you'll hear: Helen Quigley - director Tamsin Greig - who plays Phyllis Twigg Rory Kinnear - who plays Arthur Burrows Will Harrison Wallace - who plays Mr White Aja Dodd - who plays Jenny Adams Carina Saner - great-granddaughter and biographer of Phyllis Twigg Nick Heal - grandson of Arthur Burrows Philippa Heal - great-granddaughter of Arthur Burrows Neil Brand - composer ...Thanks to them and many more for making possible this new drama about the first drama. Oh and you'll also hear the 7min reading of the prose version of The Truth About Father Christmas, voiced by Carina Saner, Flora Saner (great-granddaughter and great-great-granddaughter of Phyllis) and myself (no relation!). Thanks to ME London hotel for sharing the recording with us - we recorded it for them, and they've been playing daily in their Atrium, as they're pretty much on the site of the first BBC studio, where that first radio drama began. I advise you listen to The Truth About Phyllis Twigg first - if it's still on BBC Sounds as you find this podcast. If you can't or haven't, you'll still find plenty in this podcast. It was a joy to make. And as I'm working on the biography of Phyllis with her great-granddaughter Carina (Publishers? Get in touch...), the quest continues...   SHOWNOTES: The Truth About Phyllis Twigg on BBC Radio 4: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002ntmx - it's produced by B7 Media.

Christmas Stories: The Three Responses Matthew 2:1-12 Message SlidesFor the bulletin in PDF form, click here. Opposition & HostilityIndifference & ApathyWorship & SacrificeHOME CHURCH QUESTIONS1. What are some of your family's Christmas traditions? What are your favorite Christmas stories or movies?2. What are some ways we see Herod's opposition and hostility toward Jesus in Matthew 2:1-12 & 16? Why do you think Herod is furious about the birth of Jesus? What are some modern examples of opposition and hostility toward Jesus?3. While we might not be opposed to Jesus the same way Herod was, we can still have “the spirit of Herod” in our lives. What are some characteristics of a life that is marked by the spirit of Herod? How would this contrast with the spirit of Jesus? What is an area of your life that could look more like the spirit of Jesus and less like the spirit of Herod?4. What are some examples from Matthew 2 that demonstrate how the Old Testament was anticipating the coming of Jesus? Why do you think the religious leaders are not more excited about the idea of Christ being born? 5. Have you ever talked with someone who was indifferent or apathetic toward Jesus? How would you respond to someone who said they are neutral or indifferent toward Him?6. According to Matthew 2:10-11, how do the wise men respond to Jesus? What are some ways we should follow their example? 7. What area of your life are you most hesitant to have Jesus “rearrange?” What would it look like for you to live like He is the King over that area of your life?Mission Highlight - The Adi Dravida in IndiaThe Adi Dravida in South India, have long faced social discrimination and poverty. Many work as farmers, laborers, or leather workers, though some are gaining access to education and professional jobs. Most follow Hinduism, with only a tiny Christian presence despite having Scripture available in Tamil. Pray that God would open doors for the gospel among the Adi Dravida, raise up Indian believers to build genuine friendships, and strengthen the few existing Christians to boldly share Christ within their communities.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 11/23 29,630Giving For 11/30 25,532YTD Budget 761,538Giving 698,433 OVER/(UNDER) (63,105) Fellowship 101New to Fellowship?

She also guides us through practical tools for becoming a more contemplative listener and responder.  Autumn Domingue is a spiritual director and life coach who delights in walking alongside others as they seek deeper meaning and purpose. For the past twelve years, she has supported individuals in her private practice. With over thirty years of experience as a catechist and formation leader, and as a new instructor at Aquinas Institute of Theology, Autumn is equally at home nurturing children in the atrium and guiding graduate students in their study of spirituality. Autumn's website    Spiritual Direction 101    Thank you to all our members and our donors who have given to the 2025-26 Annual Appeal and Tina Lillig Memorial Fund. Your donations make it possible for CGSUSA to expand formation opportunities, give mission courses, invest in technology, create catechist and parent resources and publications, and offer many wonderful events that build our catechist community. All of these initiatives help us serve children with love and generosity. The revenue generated from membership fees covers about 55 percent of the cost of the benefits of membership, so philanthropy is essential to delivering excellent support to catechists, ministry leaders, families, and children.

This book serves as a companion to the second volume, The Religious Potential of the Child 6 to 12 Years Old. The desire to have this essential text available in audio has been a long-held goal for many. The work of many hands has combined to bring this release to life as an audiobook.    Find out more about CGS:       Learn more about the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd     Follow us on Social Media-  Facebook at “The United States Association of the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd”  Instagram-  cgsusa  Twitter- @cgsusa  Pinterest- Natl Assoc of Catechesis of the Good Shepherd USA  YouTube- catechesisofthegoodshepherd

Forgiveness, Resurrection, and Life1 Corinthians 15Message Slides For The bulletin in PDF form, click here. I believe in . . . the forgiveness of sins,the resurrection of the body,and the life everlasting. Amen.HOME CHURCH QUESTIONS1. As we conclude our study through the Apostles' Creed, what has been a key takeaway you have found helpful? Has your view of creeds changed? Are there any new ways you have used the creed or plan to use the creed? 2. We believe in the forgiveness of sins (see 1 Cor 15:3 & 17). To experience forgiveness of sins, we have to be able to recognize our sin. What are some examples of how people ignore or downplay their sins? What are some examples of ways you ignore or downplay your sins? Why is it important we rightly understand our sin? 3. We talked about learning how to “show yourself the receipt” to be reminded there is forgiveness of sin. What are some ways you show yourself the receipt, and when have you needed to do this? What are some key verses we can use to remind ourselves of God's forgiveness? 4. We believe in the resurrection of the body. What passage stands out to you from 1 Cor 15 that addresses our future resurrection? Explain the passage. 5. What do you look forward to most about your resurrected, glorified body? Why is it important we think rightly about this future resurrection? 6. We believe in life everlasting. If someone were to ask you what eternal life in heaven will be like, how would you answer? How would you respond to someone who is concerned heaven will be missing something we are able to enjoy in this life? Are you concerned about this? 7. One day death will be defeated (see 1 Cor 15:26, 54-57). How should this truth impact the way we live now (see v.58)? In what specific area of your life should you live differently since we know death will be destroyed by Christ?Mission Highlight - The Sansi in India The Sansi people of northern India still bear the weight of a centuries-old stigma from when they were branded as criminals under British rule. Many live in poverty and isolation, mistrustful of outsiders and unaware of the gospel. With low literacy and few resources, they struggle to survive day to day. Pray that believers would reach them with compassion and that the love of Christ would break the walls of shame and rejection that have bound them for generations.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 10/26 38,172Giving For 11/02 33,119YTD Budget 623,077Giving 568,275 OVER/(UNDER) (54,802) Operation Christmas Child Collection Week is Almost Here!We are excited about your involvement as we work toward our goal of 8,200 boxes!

The Holy Spirit and the ChurchEphesians 4:1-6Message SlidesI believe in the Holy Spirit - Who applies the work of Christ - Who makes us holy - Who unifies usI believe in the holy catholic Church, the communion of saintsBook recommendation:Keep in Step with the Spirit by JI PackerHOME CHURCH QUESTIONS1. When you think about the Holy Spirit, what images or ideas come to your mind? What Bible passages are most informative for how you think about the Holy Spirit? 2. Do you think there is more mystery surrounding the Holy Spirit than there is with the Father and the Son? Explain why.3. Ephesians 1:3-14, 2:4-6, and 3:16-17 reveal a close relationship between the Spirit and the Son. Look at these passages (and/or John 16:14) and talk about the nature of this relationship. Based on these passages, how can we know if the Spirit is at work in our lives?4. The 3rd Person of the Trinity is called “Holy” because one of His roles is to make us holy. Ephesians 5:18 refers to this as being “filled with the Spirit.” Explain what this means and how we can know if we are being filled with the Spirit. In what areas of your life can you become more controlled by the Spirit? 5. Ephesians 4:4 says, “there is one body and one Spirit.” Explain the relationship among the Spirit, the church, and unity. What does it look like for us to work for unity in the church? Why is this essential? 6. What is the universal, invisible church? What is the local, visible church? Which of these do you tend to emphasize? Why are both important?Mission Highlight - The Java Pesisir Lor in Indonesia The Java Pesisir Lor are a coastal Javanese sub-ethnic group living along northern Java. Traditionally farmers and fishers, many now seek skills for urban and rural jobs. Most follow Sunni Islam, though many practice mystical Sufi traditions and local rituals. They need better access to water, jobs, and economic development, as well as exposure to the gospel. Pray for workers to share Christ, plant churches, and for a Disciple Making Movement to multiply among the Pesisir Lor.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 10/05 33,185Giving For 10/12 24,028YTD Budget 519,231Giving 447,046 OVER/(UNDER) (72,185) The 2025 OCC Season Begins!Operation Christmas Child is a global project of Samaritan's Purse that shares God's love with children in need through gift-filled shoeboxes.

He Rose, Ascended, Is Seated, and Will ComeActs 1:1-11Message SlidesOn the third day He rose againHe ascended into heavenHe is seated at the right hand of the FatherAnd He will come to judge the living and the deadHOME CHURCH QUESTIONS1. The previous section of the creed talked about Jesus' suffering and death. This current section talks about His resurrection and the events that followed. What are some of the consequences if Jesus had not risen from the grave? How much of an impact does Jesus' resurrection have in your daily life? 2. We talked about the two states of Christ: humiliation and exaltation. His humiliation involves four steps down: incarnation, suffering, death, and burial. His exaltation involves four steps up: resurrection, ascension, session, and return. Which of these do you tend to think about most/least? Explain why. Which of these should you give more time and attention to? 3. Acts 1:3 says Jesus presented himself alive “by many proofs.” What are some examples of the proofs (you could look at some of the proofs in Luke 24)? What are some lessons we learn from these proofs? For example, why is it significant he ate fish? Or why is it significant he explained the Scriptures? 4. We said it is important to keep Jesus' death and resurrection central in our thinking and in our lives. What are some examples of ways we can do this? 5. Jesus' session at the Father's right hand is an important teaching in the Bible. Do you emphasize Jesus currently sitting at the Father's right hand? Why is it significant that Jesus is at the Father's right hand? (You could refer to Acts 2:32-36 or Heb 8:1 or Rom 8:34.) What impact should this teaching have on our lives now?6. Jesus' second coming is another substantial teaching in the Bible. Do you emphasize Christ's return? Why is it significant that He will return? (You could refer to Acts 10:42 or Acts 17:31 or 2 Tim 4:8.) What impact should this teaching have on our lives now?Mission Highlight - The Khmer in CambodiaThe Khmer are Cambodia's majority people and heirs of the ancient empire seen at Angkor Wat. Most live in rural villages with little access to education, clean water, or healthcare. Their identity is rooted in Buddhism mixed with ancestor and spirit worship, and only a small minority follow Christ. Though Scripture and the JESUS Film exist in Khmer, they still need to see Christ's love through practical help and local believers sharing the gospel with their families and neighbors.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 09/29 27,682Giving For 10/05 33,185YTD Budget 484,615Giving 423,018 OVER/(UNDER) (61,597)The 2025 OCC Season Begins!Operation Christmas Child is a global project of Samaritan's Purse that shares God's love with children in need through gift-filled shoeboxes.

Crucified, Died, and Was BuriedMark 15Message Slides For the bulletin in the PDF form, click here. SufferedCrucifiedDiedBuriedHOME CHURCH QUESTIONS1. What are some examples of suffering you have experienced in your life? It was mentioned that we often expect to live long and not suffer. Do you agree? Why do we think like this? 2. What are some examples of Jesus' suffering throughout His life and at the end of His life (for example, in Mark 15)? Why should it encourage us to consider that Jesus suffered in some of the same ways we suffer? What is a specific example of suffering in your life and how has Jesus experienced something similar? 3. What are some unhelpful or unhealthy responses to someone who is suffering? What are some biblical ways to respond to someone who is suffering? Why is it encouraging to consider that God enters into our broken world and suffers for us? How should this impact the way we think about suffering? 4. What aspects of the crucifixion from Mark 15 (or from the sermon) stand out to you? Explain. 5. One motivation for God sending His Son to die on the cross was to demonstrate His justice and righteousness (see Romans 3:25). Do you tend to think about God's justice as a motive for the cross? Why is it important we keep this in mind? What are some consequences if we don't? 6. The cross both humbles and encourages us at the same time. Do you currently need to be reminded to be humbled because of what your sin required at the cross? Or do you currently need to be encouraged by God's love and what He was willing to provide at the cross? Explain. 7. Imagine you are talking with someone who says he/she believes Jesus died, but this person doesn't believe it matters or makes any difference. How would you explain the meaning of the cross and why it is important in your life?Mission Highlight - The Aid Andhra in IndiaWith a population of over 350,000, the Adi Andhra are a marginalized people group in southern India, primarily speaking Telugu and practicing Hinduism. Though some have gained education and moved to cities, many still live in poverty as landless rural laborers. Less than 1% follow Christ, and few have heard the gospel in a way they can truly understand. While the full Bible and other ministry tools are available, access and outreach remain limited.

I believe in Jesus Christ,His only Son, our Lord,Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin MaryHOME CHURCH QUESTIONS1. Luke 1:26-38 is usually thought of as a “Christmas text,” so we are talking about Christmas in September! When do you usually begin thinking about Christmas? 2. When you think about Jesus, what are some of the titles, images, or ideas that come to your mind? Where did you learn and develop your view of Jesus? 3. What are some ways we see Jesus' humanity in Luke 1:26-38? What are some other Bible passages that reveal Jesus' humanity? Why should we be encouraged by the fact that Jesus is a human like us? What impact should this make in your life today? 4. What are some ways we see Jesus is God in Luke 1:26-38? What are some other Bible passages that reveal Jesus is God? Why should we be encouraged by the fact that Jesus is God? What impact should this make in your life today? 5. How would you explain to someone the importance of the virgin birth? What are some key truths that are revealed in the virgin birth? 6. Mary responded to this incredible news by saying, “I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word” (Luke 1:38). In what area of your life is God calling you to be faithful? What would it look like for you to respond like Mary in your life? Mission Highlight - Pray for the Unreached: The Sindhi of Belize The Sindhi in Belize are a small Muslim people group of about 6,800, originally from the Sindh region of Pakistan. While their homeland blends Islamic practice with folk traditions, the Sindhi in Belize are considered fully Muslim. There are currently no known followers of Christ among them. Though the complete Bible, Jesus Film, and audio resources exist in Sindhi, the gospel remains largely out of reach. Pray for workers to share Christ's love and for hearts to open to the truth of the gospel.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 08/31 17,481Giving For 09/07 38,110YTD Budget 346,154Giving 302,659 OVER/(UNDER) (43,495) Equipping OpportunitiesFellowship's Equipping Ministry exists to equip and release our church body to deepen their understanding and experience of God & His word, develop genuine, Spirit-led living, and consistently invest in making disciples.

What does it mean to “fight the good fight of the faith” (v. 12)?• How is this different from fighting for faith vs. fighting with faith? • What doctrinal “fights” are worth engaging in as believers?• Which ones are distractions?2. Paul tells Timothy to “take hold of eternal life” (v. 12).• How can eternal life be something we take hold of now, not just something we receive later?• Look at John 17:3 and answer the question above again.3.

Paul ends his letter with “Grace be with you.”• Why is grace the final word of Paul's pastoral instruction?• How does God's grace empower you to live out these commands—and where do you still struggle to rest in that grace?God designed the church to be a battleground for sound doctrine where people place their hope in God and not riches nd by this experience a taste of eternal life here and now.Pray for the Unreached: The Ad Dharma in IndiaThe Ad Dharmi are a marginalized community of over 1 million in northern India, primarily working in leather-related trades. Though socially integrated in some ways, they still face low status in Hindu society. Most follow traditional Hindu practices, seeking blessings through temple rituals and festivals.
