How easily do we sin not only through our spoken words, but within the hidden theater of our thoughts? Father Robert Nixon, OSB—Benedictine monk at New Norcia in Australia and translator for the TAN Resurrection Series—joins host Anna Mitchell on the Son Rise Morning Show to reflect on Thomas à Kempis's classic insights from Solitude and Silence: The Cloister of the Heart. Father Nixon breaks down the spiritual connection between thought, speech, and action, explaining how internal thoughts act as a form of interior speech before God, why Jesus repeatedly addressed the thoughts of the Pharisees, and how we can practically manage passing temptations and distractions without falling into scrupulosity.

The Maltmigos ride again! Jim Shannon and Todd Ritter welcome back two fan favorites — Amzie Wenning and Rob Carter — for another deep dive into the world of American single malt whiskey. Recorded at the Corner Rickhouse in Frankfort, Kentucky, this episode sends the foursome on a cross-country tasting journey spanning North Carolina, Minnesota, Maryland, Virginia, and Colorado, all without leaving their seats. On the Tasting Mat: - Lost Lantern Single Cask — Oak & Grist Distillery American Single Malt (125.6 Proof, 3 Years Old): A grain-to-glass single malt from Black Mountain, North Carolina, sourced by independent bottler Lost Lantern. Distilled using locally sourced barley within 60 miles of the distillery and aged in used bourbon barrels, this three-year-old pours a light straw color. The nose is immediately fruity and aromatic — apple juice, white grape, and a touch of apple brandy — with a mild ethanol lift. On the palate, juicy orchard fruit gives way to a buttery warmth with a subtle floral honeysuckle note and a spicy white pepper and anise finish. Retail: ~$90. *(00:02:03)* - Brother Justice American Single Malt Single Barrel (125.7 Proof): From Minneapolis, Minnesota, this craft whiskey uses 100% Minnesota-sourced malted barley. Named for a Benedictine monk who built stills for struggling farmers during Prohibition, Brother Justice leans into darker, richer territory. The nose opens with dark fruit, oak, and a hint of chocolate brownie — think cosmic brownie — with a whisper of anise. The palate delivers a full, warming experience with chocolate mint, fig Newton, and a touch of orange zest. Retail: ~$85. *(00:10:12)* - Old Line Spirits Madeira Cask Finished American Single Malt Single Barrel (125.4 Proof, 7 Years Old): Produced by two retired Navy aviators in Baltimore, Maryland, this single barrel was aged four years in new American oak before spending three years finishing in Madeira casks. The color is strikingly dark, and the nose is nothing short of decadent — molasses, pralines, maple, fruitcake, and toasted nuts. On the palate, rich Kahlúa-like flavors of roasted coffee, dark chocolate, and rum-forward sweetness emerge, with a lingering anise and licorice finish. Retail: ~$65. *(00:21:55)* - Virginia Distillery Company First Cut Cigar Blend (108 Proof, 7 Years Old): The largest dedicated American single malt distillery in the U.S., Virginia Distillery Company in Lovingston, Virginia, produced this ambitious expression. Aged five years in ex-bourbon barrels, it was then finished across eight different cask types: Sherry, Fino Sherry, Port, STR (Shave Toasted Re-Charred), Chateau Palmer Cabernet, Armagnac, Cognac, and Islay Scotch casks. The nose is Scotch-forward with dark fruit and a subtle smokiness. The palate is concentrated and slightly sticky, with smoked chocolate, bright berry, wine-forward fruit, and a savory Port character. Retail: ~$60. *(00:30:50)* - Stranahan's Founders Release American Single Malt (120 Proof, 12 Years Old) [Bonus Pour]: One of the pioneering names in American single malt, Denver-based Stranahan's was founded in 2004 using Flying Dog Brewery's 100% malted barley beer wash. This rare 12-year Founders Release was aged in heavily charred new American white oak before finishing in ex-bourbon and blonde ale casks. The nose is like walking into a bakery — almond extract, cinnamon buns, candied pecans, coconut, and orange zest. On the palate, cinnamon butter, caramel, and a cream-center candy sweetness shine through, with warm spice and a long, lush finish. Retail: ~$199. *(00:42:27)* The Maltmigos prove once again that the American single malt category is anything but predictable. From a bright, Scotch-inspired three-year-old out of Appalachia to a 12-year Colorado pioneer that conjures a bakery in full swing, today's lineup showcases the incredible range that American distillers are bringing to malted barley whiskey. Keep an eye on these producers — and if you spot any of these bottles on a shelf, don't hesitate.

While Saint Jerome is famous for translating the Vulgate and for his fiery temperament, how did the Eucharist shape his path to sainthood? Benedictine monk Fr. Basil Nixen (Monastery of San Benedetto in Norcia, Italy) joins host Anna Mitchell on The Son Rise Morning Show on the feast of Saint Jerome to discuss his new book from TAN Books, The Last Communion of St. Jerome. Fr. Basil explores the Renaissance paintings and pious legends depicting Jerome’s final moments, unpacking what the Church Father’s writings reveal about monastic devotion, Eucharistic reverence, and making the Blessed Sacrament the center of daily life.

Track 1 of the Chant II CD: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VAe5fYJzAoBack in the 1990s, a series of Gregorian chants CDs were produced and they became very popular. They were recordings made by Benedictine monks in Spain.The first of these CDs sold two million copies in the USA and two million copies in the rest of the world. When people were trying to explain why a Gregorian Chant CD could be so popular, they said that people were using it as an antidote to the stress of the modern world.After the first CD did so well, they produced a second CD and made the first track the monks singing the beautiful Introit of today's Mass, which starts off with the words: “Give peace, O Lord, to those who have hoped in You”.The world was looking for some peace of soul and turned to Gregorian Chant. They can find it not only through Gregorian Chant, but also through the TLM.There is a certain point of the Mass when the Mass becomes focused on asking God for peace. This is right after the Pater Noster. In the prayer which immediately follows it, the Libera Nos, the priest says to God, “mercifully grant peace in our days, that through the assistance of Thy mercy we may be always free from sin, and secure from all disturbance.”Then the priest prays the Agnus Dei. As you know the last petition is “Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world, grant us peace”.Then, the priest places his hands on the altar, and says to Our Lord, “Lord Jesus Christ, who said to Thine Apostles: Peace I leave you, My peace I give you: regard not my sins, but the faith of Thy Church; and vouchsafe to grant her that peace and unity which is agreeable to Thy will.”This peace that Our Lord gives is the peace that the people of the world were looking for when they were listening to Gregorian Chant in the 1990s. At the Last Supper, Our Lord explains that the peace He gives us is not like the peace that the world gives.For there are, in fact, two types of peace: the peace of the world and the peace of Our Lord. Because we use the same word for these two types of peace, we can easily become confused by them.We can meet people in the world who are living in a state of sin, or Catholics who have left the faith, or who have stopped practicing traditional Catholicism. And they say to us, “I am at peace with my decision”. And we may be tempted to think that people in the world are able to live in a state of sin and be at peace, when in fact they only have the peace of the world.For this reason, I think that it would be helpful for us to think about three differences between the peace that the world gives and the peace that Our Lord gives.The main difference between the two is that the peace of Our Lord is “tranquility in order” and the peace of the world is “numbness in disorder”. The peace of Our Lord is in the soul and is obtained by mortifying or putting to death the body. The peace of the world is in the body and is obtained by putting to death the soul.

QUOTES FOR REFLECTION“For all of us have a basic, intuitive feeling that once we were whole and well; at ease, at home in the world, totally united with the grounds of our being; and that then we lost this primal, happy, innocent state, and fell into our present sickness and suffering. We had something of infinite beauty and preciousness – and we lost it; we spend our lives searching for what we have lost; and one day, perhaps, we will suddenly find it.”~Oliver Sacks, famed neurologist in his book Awakenings “Union with Christ is in Scripture the most general way of characterizing Jesus' work of salvation. Jesus saves us by uniting us to himself.  …So the Christian life is a life in Christ: he in us and we in him.”~John Frame, an American Christian philosopher and theologian “All saints, that are united to Jesus Christ their Head by His Spirit and by faith, have fellowship with Him in His grace, sufferings, death, resurrection, and glory: and, being united to one another in love, they have communion in each other's gifts and graces, and are obliged to the performance of such duties, public and private, as do conduce to their mutual good….”~Westminster Confession of Faith (1646) “Christ and the Christian are married, faith being the soul's consent to the spiritual marriage covenant, which as it is proposed in the gospel…. [A]nd so he, being joined to the Lord, is one spirit with Him.”~Thomas Boston (1676-1732), Scottish theologian and philosopher “Let him kiss me with the kiss of his mouth; let his gracious presence and streams of beautiful teaching become in me the spring of water springing up to eternal life…. His living and active word is to me a kiss indeed, not the union of lips, which meanwhile belies the union of souls, but the full infusion of joys, revealing of secrets, a marvelous and somehow inseparable fusion of the heavenly light and the illuminated mind. Clinging to God, it is one spirit with him….”~Bernard of Clairvaux (1090-1153), an abbot, mystic, and Benedictine reformer “It is therefore indeed correct to say that baptism is a washing away of sins, but the expression is too mild and weak to bring out the full significance of baptism, which is rather a symbol of death and resurrection. For this reason, I would have those who are to be baptized completely immersed in the water, as the word says and as the mystery indicates. Not because I deem this necessary, but because it would be well to give to a thing so perfect and complete a sign…. The sinner does not so much need to be washed as he needs to die, in order to be wholly renewed and made another creature, and to be conformed to the death and resurrection of Christ, with whom he dies and rises again through baptism.”~Martin Luther (1483-1546), German reformer in The Babylonian Captivity of the ChurchSERMON PASSAGERomans 6:1-14 (ESV)Romans 5 12 Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned—…. 18 So then as through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness there resulted justification of life to all men. 19 For as through the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the One the many will be made righteous. 20 The Law came in so that the transgression would increase; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more, 21 so that, as sin reigned in death, even so grace would reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6 1 What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin so that grace may increase? 2 May it never be! How shall we who died to sin still live in it? 3 Or do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus have been baptized into His death? 4 Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life. 5 For if we have become united with Him in the likeness of His death, certainly we shall also be in the likeness of His resurrection, 6 knowing this, that our old self was crucified with Him, in order that our body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be slaves to sin; 7 for he who has died is freed from sin. 8 Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him, 9 knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, is never to die again; death no longer is master over Him. 10 For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God. 11 Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus. 12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its lusts, 13 and do not go on presenting the members of your body to sin as instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves to God as those alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. 14 For sin shall not be master over you, for you are not under law but under grace. John 15 5 I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing. 1 Corinthians 6 15 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take away the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? May it never be! 16 Or do you not know that the one who joins himself to a prostitute is one body with her? For He says, “The two shall become one flesh.” 17 But the one who joins himself to the Lord is one spirit with Him. 18 Flee immorality. Every other sin that a man commits is outside the body, but the immoral man sins against his own body. 19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own? 20 For you have been bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body.

When Ellen Watson first arrived at Esalen in the summer of 1984, she expected to stay for a few months. Instead, she remained onsite for more than two decades, engaging in an immersion in the practices, teachers, and experiments that helped define Esalen during one of its most fertile eras. She has remained associated with Esalen, teaching programs and training bodyworkers and teachers of bodywork. In this episode, Ellen remembers studying Holotropic Breathwork with Stanislav Grof, Gestalt practice, Continuum with Emily Conrad, Gabrielle Roth's 5Rhythms, singing Gestalt, yoga, massage, hands-on healing, and a range of spiritual and psychological traditions. Ellen also recalls her friendships and encounters with figures including Terence McKenna and Benedictine monk Brother David Steindl-Rast, and speaks candidly about her experiences with psychedelics during a period when these substances remained closely connected to a larger culture of inquiry into consciousness, healing, and transformation. Throughout the conversation, Ellen describes Esalen as a kind of “unaccredited graduate school”, a place where psychology, spirituality, movement, breath, touch, music, and altered or “non-ordinary” states of consciousness were allowed to inform one another.

What happens to your whole world when the king decides your faith is wrong? Richard Smith's new book, Beyond Where Words Can Go, follows two young Benedictine monks, a lord's youngest son and a foundling left on the monastery doorstep, through Henry VIII's dissolution of the monasteries and all the back and forth of the English Reformation. And it's told entirely in sonnets. Two hundred of them! Richard is a clinical psychologist in Washington, DC who started writing sonnets for his dog (yes, really), and I loved talking with him about what it felt like to live inside the old faith, where the monks went when their homes were pulled down, and why the sonnet turned out to be the perfect way to tell this story. Our friend Gerry joined us live with some great questions about the manuscripts lost when the monasteries fell. Find Richard at richardsmithwriting.com and on Instagram @richardsmithwriting.
