Speaker: Rob BerrethScripture: Matthew 2:1-12Episode Overview:In Matthew's telling of the Magi's journey, we are invited to behold something both shocking and glorious: unlikely seekers traveling far to worship an unlikely King. Pagan astrologers arrive at a humble home, drawn by divine guidance and overwhelming joy, to bow before the child born King of the Jews—and Savior of the world. Their presence reveals the wide reach of God's grace and confronts our tendency to narrow who we believe can come to Jesus.This passage also unveils the gospel through the gifts the Magi present. Gold, frankincense, and myrrh together proclaim who Jesus truly is: King, God, and Sacrifice. Before Jesus speaks a word or performs a miracle, His mission is already foreshadowed—He reigns, He is worthy of worship, and He has come to give His life for sinners. In the most humble setting, God gives His greatest gift.Key Highlights:• The surprising arrival of the Magi shows that God's invitation to worship extends to the least likely and the outsider• Matthew's repeated call to “behold” awakens us to the wonder and scandal of grace• The three gifts proclaim the heart of the gospel: Jesus is King, God, and Savior• True wisdom is not merely seeing Jesus, but falling down in worship• The greatest gift is given in the most humble wrapping—God the Father giving God the Son Call to Action:This passage invites us to examine what we expect from God—and whether we are willing to recognize His work when it comes in humility rather than splendor. Like the Magi, we are called to seek Jesus faithfully, rejoice deeply when we find Him, and respond with surrendered worship. Come to Christ not with what you think He needs, but with empty hands and a bowed heart, trusting that He Himself is the treasure.Redeemer Church211 Northshore Dr. Bellingham, WA 98226www.redeemernw.org

Speaker: Rob BerrethScripture: Matthew 2:1-12Episode Overview:Matthew's account of the wise men invites us to look closely at an ordinary-appearing child and ask an unavoidable question: How will we respond to Him? In Matthew 2:1–12, we encounter a heavenly sign, two rival kings, and three very different responses to Jesus—anxiety, apathy, and adoration. This passage reveals that Jesus is not merely a figure to be acknowledged, but a King who demands allegiance and deserves worship. Though He appears humble and unassuming, He is the God-appointed King of Kings and the greatest treasure we could ever seek.Key Highlights:• The significance of the star and how God draws the nations to Himself• The contrast between Herod, the self-protecting king, and Jesus, the self-giving King• Three responses to Jesus: hostility, indifference, and worship• Why familiarity with Scripture can still leave the heart unchanged• What true worship looks like when Jesus is seen for who He really isCall to Action:As you listen, consider where you see yourself in this story. Are you resisting Jesus' kingship, remaining indifferent to His claims, or bowing before Him in worship? This passage invites us not merely to know about Christ, but to reorder our lives around Him—submitting our plans, priorities, and treasures to the One who gave Himself for us. Let this season be marked by a renewed joy and wholehearted devotion to Jesus, our true King and greatest treasure.Redeemer Church211 Northshore Dr. Bellingham, WA 98226www.redeemernw.org

Send us a textWhat if the fastest way to peace isn't more learning, but more willingness? We open with a rain-soaked, cedar-scented snapshot from the Pacific Northwest and then dive straight into the heart of our practice: letting the mind's patterns reveal themselves without fear, defense, or control. Rather than forcing outcomes, we explore how to live from command—the effortless extension of love that quietly reorganizes perception—while releasing the ego's compulsion to manage every variable.We trace a powerful thread through the “I and I” relationship: the aspectless source and the individuated self. When they feel close, life becomes ecstatic, natural, and generous. From that closeness, we revisit world “problems” like killing, climate, and conflict without hardening into blame or superiority. Instead of adding density to dense topics, we reframe them as projections of a secret belief in threat, and let awareness do what willpower never can.Along the way we unpack people pleasing and guilt, the trap of fantasy, and the myth of private thoughts. We talk about why sickness narratives stick, how symptoms mirror believed guilt, and how gentle responsibility dissolves them without shame. Diet becomes a surprising teacher: no food saves or condemns you, and quantification only tightens the body-concept. Bless your experience, and behavior shifts on its own. We also share how to plan life's particulars while leaving miracles unplanned, and how ACIM practice can turn into identity if we chase methods instead of choosing forgiveness now.If you're ready to trade striving for grace, control for command, and narratives for direct seeing, this conversation will feel like fresh air.

Storied: San Francisco
Lex Sloan, Henry S. Rosenthal, and The Roxie, Part 1 (S8E8)

Storied: San Francisco

Play Episode Listen Later Dec 16, 2025 24:29


When you tell friends you're going to see a movie at The Roxie, there's an almost palpable envy that sets in for them. In this episode, meet Lex Sloan and Henry S. Rosenthal. Lex is The Roxie's executive director and Henry is on its Board of Directors and the chair of the theater's capital campaign, which we'll get to. In the meantime, if you'd like to help keep a bona fide San Francisco landmark in its rightful home until the end of time (they'd sure love you to, and so would I), donate to the Forever Roxie fund here. We start with Henry, who lets us know that the "S" in his name stands for Sigmund. Henry was born in Cincinnati and had what he describes as an "idyllic childhood" there. He started going to music shows when he was 13, seeing bands like Iggy and the Stooges and MC5. After graduating from high school, he moved to San Francisco in 1973 to attend school at The New College of California. He was an early subscriber to Rolling Stone magazine, where he had seen a New College ad. That ad captivated young Henry's imagination. He visited the campus, which was in Sausalito at the time, after a road trip from Ohio to the West Coast. The school tried to get him to enroll right then, but Henry decided to go back home and finish high school first. Henry produced cable TV shows while in college. In a sense, it's what he's been doing ever since. When Henry moved to San Francisco, there were still operating movie palaces on Market. Before really making friends here, he'd spend a lot of time inside those theaters. It was the era of movies like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Enter the Dragon. He says it's difficult to put into words (it is), but San Francisco just grabbed him and never let go. Then we turn to Lex Sloan. Lex went to college in Bellingham, Washington, at the type of school that allows you to design your own degree, which she did. Lex got a bachelor's in "social change media," which is so on the nose, it tickles. Post-graduation, she went to what she calls "the middle of nowhere, Arizona," but that lasted all of seven or eight months. Looking for where to land next and being a spreadsheet nerd (like me), Lex made a list. And lo and behold, San Francisco checked the most boxes. She got a job in Redwood City, not knowing that that Peninsula town wasn't exactly The City. No matter—she landed. The job involved teaching video production at a community center. At first, she stayed in a hostel on Mission Street before finding a place all her own on Craigslist. That was 2005, and Lex hasn't looked back. We go back to Henry to hear the story of how The Roxie drew him in. Perhaps jokingly, he says he laments not visiting when The Roxie was a porn theater. Henry doesn't recall his actual first visit, but says he's been a regular since first learning about the place. He knew Bill Banning, who created Roxie Releases, the organization's distribution operation. (Rivers and Tides, the documentary about artist Andy Goldsworthy, is among their releases.) Banning and he were friends for a while. Their kids went to school together. Their lives kept intertwining, including at film festivals. When The Roxie transitioned to a nonprofit and created a board, folks like Bill invited Henry to join it. He politely refused … until the theater was on firmer ground financially. And once it was, he was in. Henry's goal in joining The Roxie board was singular, he says: To help the organization buy the building where the theater sits. Lex does remember her first time at The Roxie. After she landed in The City, she sought work on local film crews. She found a crew and their film (Getting Off) premiered at The Roxie during Frameline. Because she was "only" a production assistant, she wasn't comped a ticket. Lex remembers showing up and seeing a rather long and daunting line to get in. But! That line was filled with her people. She calls that screening "magical" and "electrifying." Over the years, she came back time and again, for one-off movies as well as for film festivals. When Lex worked for Frameline, one of her jobs was carrying film prints into the projection booth at The Roxie and other theaters. Fast-forward to 10 years or so ago, when Lex became operations director at The Roxie. We then turn to the history of The Roxie, with Lex as our tour guide. The space where the theater sits today was built to be just that—a movie theater. It wasn't converted at any point from something else to become a place where folks watch movies. The folks who run the theater today have discovered and held onto the original blueprints from 1913. Its first name was The Poppy Theater. Then it was The 16th Street. Then The New 16th Street, The Gaiety, The Rex, and finally, in the early 1930s, The Roxie. That oh-so-recognizable marquee came to The Mission from an auto dealership in Oakland aboard a barge that traveled across The Bay. A lot of the history of The Roxie before the Seventies is not well-known. But, after becoming The Roxie, it was first a German-language cinema (concessions at the time were German candies). Thanks to some projectionist's notes they've found, they know that in the Fifties, it became a variety space of sorts. In the late Sixties/early Seventies, it was an XXX theater, as mentioned in Henry's story earlier. In those days, a turnstile out front kept underage folks and those who didn't pay out (or did it?). In 1976 or '77, a group of local artists took over. That group changed a lot of things. It became more of an arthouse cinema, as it remains to this day. The folks who ran the place put people before profits. Midnight movies became a thing The Roxie was known for. Check back Thursday for Part 2 with Lex and Henry.

Speaker: Rob BerrethScripture: Matthew 1:18-25Episode Overview:Matthew's account of Jesus' birth introduces us to two names that reveal the heart of the gospel: Jesus and Immanuel. In this sermon, we see that the child born of the virgin is both the Savior who rescues His people from their sins and the God who draws near to dwell with them. Matthew 1:18–25 declares that our deepest problem is not merely circumstantial but spiritual—and that God Himself has acted decisively to save and restore us through the incarnation of His Son.Key Highlights:• Why Jesus' name matters: He saves His people from their sins, addressing our greatest need• A biblical understanding of sin as relational rebellion against a holy Creator• The wonder of the incarnation: God becoming man without ceasing to be God• The meaning of Immanuel: God's abiding presence with His people now and forever• Living between Christ's first coming and His promised return with confidence in His nearnessCall to Action:This passage invites us to respond not with self-reliance, but with trust. Consider where you may be tempted to manage life apart from God's grace. Receive Jesus anew as both your Savior from sin and your present help in weakness. Like Joseph, believe what God has spoken—and make room in your life for the God who is with you.Redeemer Church211 Northshore Dr. Bellingham, WA 98226www.redeemernw.org
