In this interview, I chat with Elisabeth Dini about Bearer of Bad News, the idea of a bearer of bad news, what surprised her the most when writing this one, how she settled on the format, honoring real women through her character names, her job at the International Criminal Court and how it informed the story, and much more.

Jesus' yoke is easy, it is gentle. It is made for you!

"George, this truly great and glorious Martyr of Christ, was born of a father from Cappadocia and a mother from Palestine. Being a military tribune, or chiliarch (that is, a commander of a thousand troops), he was illustrious in battle and highly honored for his courage. When he learned that the Emperor Diocletian was preparing a persecution of the Christians, Saint George presented himself publicly before the Emperor and denounced him. When threats and promises could not move him from his steadfast confession, he was put to unheard-of tortures, which he endured with great bravery, overcoming them by his faith and love towards Christ. By the wondrous signs that took place in his contest, he guided many to the knowledge of the truth, including Queen Alexandra, wife of Diocletion, and was finally beheaded in 296 in Nicomedia." (Great Horologion) The Empress Alexandra, along with a pagan priest who confessed Christ due to George's witness, were executed together with the Great Martyr. St Alexandra is commemorated on April 21/May 4. Neither the Great Horologion nor the Prologue, nor the Church's services to St George, mention the most popular story of St George, his slaying of a dragon. Though many icons of the Saint show him mounted on horseback, slaying a dragon with a spear, the story is thought by many to be legendary, and the dragon in the icon symbolic.
On Good Friday, we remember the scandalous and sacrificial death of Jesus Christ—our substitute and curse-bearer. In this message from Galatians 3:10–14, Pastor J.M. Lee answers the crucial question: What did Jesus do on the cross? More than an inspiring symbol or example, the cross reveals the depths of our need and the heights of Christ's saving work. Jesus fulfilled the law, took our curse, and secured our redemption—so that by faith, we might receive the righteousness of God.Mission Church www.missionlasvegas.com.

January 29, 2025 Today's Reading: Luke 4:16-30Daily Lectionary: Zechariah 8:1-23; 2 Timothy 1:1-18“And he said, “Truly, I say to you, no prophet is acceptable in his hometown.” (Luke 4:24)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. Jesus wouldn't do miracles in His hometown. It gave everyone big feelings, so they tried to throw him off a cliff. It's maybe a little easier to stomach Jesus saying no to the people who throw tantrums and try to throw Him off a cliff than when He does it to us. That might be a thing to wrestle with. But instead everyone takes the hometown verse as the thing that matters. No prophet is acceptable in his hometown. I get why I can't go back to my hometown. I did stupid stuff in high school. People remember. But sinless Jesus wasn't known for stealing road cones from construction sites and closing down public streets for fun. So it's not about reputation. It's not even about the town, either. Elisha didn't go on a healing tour but saw only Naaman, who visited him at home, like, three chapters after he had shebears kill young men for calling him bald. His reputation was probably… at least something to take note of. This isn't actually about the prophet. It isn't about the town. It's about the expectation. The thing we didn't want to talk about in the first place when all the bad people who Jesus said “no” to tried to de-cliff Him. The reason we're really not okay when He says “no” to us. The expectation is, “Hey, you work for us.” That's a problem. God is for you. But not under you. It's bigger than just who's in charge. God is merciful and good. The great danger in assuming you need to be in charge and not Him is really that you think you need to be. If you need to be in charge and not God, there's an assumption that God isn't merciful and good, so you need to be in charge. The kind of Christianity where you need to be in charge is the greatest burden and the least hope. It is a false doctrine, a lie of the devil Christ will not allow to stand because that is a Christianity where you get to receive nothing and are forced to take everything. You don't get to trust God; only figure out how to make Him dance. Crosses aren't involved in that kind of Christianity. But Jesus died for you. It's not only the proof that He is merciful and good that we need when our desperate prayers seem to be met with “no.” It's the place He gives the answers we really need. Your sins are forgiven. You are already delivered from death and the devil. Rejoice.In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Hail, Thou once despisèd Jesus! Hail, Thou Galilean King! Thou didst suffer to release us; Thou didst free salvation bring. Hail, Thou universal Savior, Bearer of our sin and shame! By Thy merit we find favor: Life is given through Thy name.

What do toasters have in common with transparency and online advertising standards? Quite a lot, actually, says Ben Hovaness, chief media officer at OMD Worldwide. If you can trust a set of standards – and companies conform to them – the less transparency you need. It's like when you plug in a new toaster. “You're not worried that it's going to burst into flames and destroy your home,” Hovaness says.

Welcome to the Daily Disciple Podcast. As daily disciples, we seek to adore and follow Jesus our teacher into the abundant life that he offers. Because we find Jesus to be irresistible and fascinating and incredibly practical, we want to be students of his teaching found in scripture. Today's episode is found in 1 Samuel 18 "Gift Bearer".
As Paul has just written to the Galatians about the works of the flesh and the fruit of the Spirit, he understands that we will not always display the fruit of the Spirit perfectly in our lives. Sometimes we or those around us will give in to the works of the flesh. Paul instructs us in two ways that we should approach a fellow believer who is in sin. First of all, we should approach with a spirit of gentleness. Part of this, of course, would be in accordance with Matthew 18 in approaching our brother or sister alone to discuss their sin. In addition, note that we are not to just approach them for the sake of revealing sin but for the purpose of restoring them.
Nehemiah was but a cup bearer to the King, but God heard his prayer and used him mightily to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem and restore the city back to God.

When the holy and most pure child Mary (Mariam or Miriam in Hebrew) reached the age of three, her parents, the righteous Joachim and Anna, fulfilled the vow they had made to dedicate her to God. Going in procession with a company of maidens carrying torches, they presented their child at the Temple in Jerusalem, where Zecharias the High Priest took her under his care, blessing her with these words: "The Lord has glorified thy name in every generation; it is in thee that He will reveal the Redemption that he has prepared for his people in the last days." He then brought the child into the Holy of Holies — something completely unheard-of, for under the Law only the High Priest was allowed to enter the Holy Place, and he only once a year on the Day of Atonement. (In the icon of the feast, the maidens who accompany the Theotokos are shown bare-headed, as was customary for unmarried girls; but the Theotokos herself, though only three years old, wears the head-covering of a married woman to show her consecration to God.) The holy Virgin lived in the Temple for the next nine years, devoting herself entirely to prayer. In this time she attained the utter purity of heart befitting the destined Bearer of the Most High; she became in her own person the fulfilment and condensation of all of Israel's faithfulness. Saint Gregory Palamas says that, when the Theotokos entered the Holy of Holies, the time of preparation and testing of the Old Covenant came to an end for Israel, which was now ready, in the blessed Virgin, to bring forth the Savior. When Mary approached marriageable age, she was entrusted to the chaste widower Joseph to guard her. (The Prologue says that a life of intentional virginity was unknown among the Hebrews, so the righteous Joseph undertook the forms of marriage so as not to cause scandal among the people.) "Wherefore the Church rejoices and exhorts all the friends of God for their part to enter into the temple of their heart, there to make ready for the coming of the Lord by silence and prayer, withdrawing from the pleasures and cares of this world." (Synaxarion)
