Dr. R. Carlton Wynne speaks at the Reformed Forum Annual Theology Conference, held at Lakeland Church in Gurnee, Illinois on September 27, 2025. Dr. Wynne explores how the vast portion of the Old Testament covering the monarchy and prophetic periods (approximately 417 chapters) points to Jesus Christ. Dr. Wynne first establishes the central, Christ-centered scope of all Scripture, affirming that everything in the Old Testament looks forward to and finds its fulfillment in Christ's person and work, including his death and resurrection. The address then moves beyond viewing Christ merely as being prefigured in the Old Testament through "scale models" or "macro typology." Instead, it seeks a deeper sense in which the pre-incarnate Christ's power and heavenly kingdom principles were actively revealed through the history of Israel's kings and prophets, positioning these figures and institutions as intrusions of heavenly glory mediated by Christ himself.

Recording on the move along the Adriatic, the guys sit down in Italy with their spiritual guide and friend Fr. Stuart Crevecour to talk about Eucharistic adoration—what it is, why it matters, and how to begin. From stories of Eucharistic miracles in Cascia and Orvieto to practical advice for dads bringing kids to the chapel, this episode explores how adoration “holds a moment of the Mass” so Christ can transform our week. Along the way: pilgrimage anecdotes, incorrupt saints, and a few dad-joke detours.Segment GuideOn the Road (and Sea): Why This Episode Is DifferentFirst-ever episode recorded in transit—pilgrimage vibes, College GameDay energy, and what a Jubilee year in Italy feels like.Eucharistic Miracles: From Casual Irreverence to Deep ConversionThe bleeding breviary in Cascia and the miracle preserved in Orvieto become cautionary tales—and catalysts—for reverence and faith.What Adoration Is (and Isn't)Fr. Stuart offers a simple frame: adoration as a moment of the Mass held in contemplation—the elevation “stretched” so we can gaze and be changed.Does It Really Do Anything? Why GoFrom “just try it” to “I can't live without my hour,” we hear how steady time before the monstrance re-centers a life and renews prayer.Awkward at First: How to Start a Holy HourBring a rosary or a good spiritual book. Expect silence to feel long. Keep going. Over time, conversation gives way to presence.Spiritual Communion: When You Can't ReceiveMaking a spiritual communion at home or in church keeps us oriented toward the tabernacle—especially helpful in seasons of waiting or constraint.Benediction: A Different Kind of BlessingWhy the blessing at the end of adoration is unique: you're being blessed by Christ himself, truly present in the Host.Family Adoration (Without the Panic)Practical ideas: parish “family holy hours,” short come-and-go windows, and training kids gently in reverence (yes, even page-turning).If Your Parish Doesn't Have AdorationHow to ask your pastor for a weekly hour or occasional exposition—and ways laity can help make it happen.From Medieval Piety to Today's RenewalHow devotion blossomed after Corpus Christi and grew again in recent decades—feeding vocations, parish life, and personal holiness.Key TakeawaysAdoration deepens Communion. It doesn't replace the Mass; it disposes us to receive the Eucharist more fruitfully.Start small, stay steady. Twenty minutes grows into an hour; over time, you won't want to miss it.Bring the kids. Create kid-friendly windows or family hours; let children encounter Jesus and learn chapel habits gradually.Spiritual communion matters. If you can't receive sacramentally, orient yourself to the tabernacle and keep showing up.Benediction blesses uniquely. The blessing is given with Christ himself, not merely by the priest.Memorable Lines“Adoration is a moment of the Mass held in contemplation.”“You can't outgive the Lord—show up and let Him do the work.”“Hang out with Jesus often; we become like the people we're with.”“Correct the [Eucharistic] abuses, but don't throw out the baby with the bathwater.”How to Begin a Holy Hour (Simple Plan)Arrive and acknowledge: a slow Sign of the Cross; “Lord, I'm here.”Read briefly (5–10 min): a Gospel passage or trusted spiritual...
Auntea Jerrell is officially a married man! Get your cups ready as he shares all the details from his wedding—the pre-ceremony nerves, the intimate celebration, and the hilarious moment his new husband immediately started calling him "husband" 87 times in a row. Jerrell also shares the two major reasons they decided to tie the knot now (hint: one involves starting a family!). The celebration leads directly into a powerful Ask Yo Aunteas segment: How important are relationship titles? The Aunteas have very strong feelings about the difference between being introduced as "my friend" versus "my partner" or "my husband." Plus, Auntea Dawon reports back from his "integration phase" trip to London to visit his man (and delivers a scathing review of British food), and the Aunteas debate the messy, new "Post My DL" TikTok trend. Oh, and did yall watch the No Limit vs. Cash Money Verzuz?

If this episode is appearing twice, it's because the Spotify feed was acting up. Apologies and hey... you get to hear Brian Sims, twice! - Yo Aunteas! Yo Aunteas are joined once again by Brian Sims — activist, former Pennsylvania State Representative, and CEO of Agenda PAC. Brian breaks down how Agenda PAC is using AI to identify and defeat the most dangerous bigots in America, why local elections matter more than ever, and how queer communities can reignite political hope amid burnout and misinformation. The group gets real about why the Democratic party refuses to "play dirty", and Brian delivers a sharp call to action for allies—especially white gay men—who have been conspicuously silent while our rights are under attack. Of course, the Aunteas also serve the cultural tea, breaking down the drama behind Brandy walking off stage during the long-awaited Brandy & Monica tour. Finally, Brian returns for "Curiositea Part Two" , sharing his hobbies, his Drag Race Mount Rushmore , and the sweet story behind the last song he played .

It is I; do not be afraid.” And Peter answered Him and said, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.” So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!” And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. - Homily - Hymn 48 - in Peace and Joy I Now Depart: v. 1 Duet; v. 2 All, v. 3 Duet, v. 4 All - The Kyrie (p. 124) - The Lord's Prayer (p. 125) - Hymn 584 - Grant Peace, We Pray, in Mercy, Lord - The Collect (pp. 125-127) - The Benedicamus (p. 127) - The Benediction (p. 127) - Hymn 513 - My Maker, Be Thou Nigh: vv. 4 - Postlude Service Participants: Chaplain Don Moldstad (Preacher), Rev.

This letter pulses with emotion as Paul defends his ministry, confronts critics, and pleads with the church to embrace true gospel leadership marked by humility, weakness, and grace. In this season, we explore the drama, pain, and beauty of a pastor fighting for the hearts of his people—and the God who reconciles us through it all.

You know my resting and my rising You discern my purpose from afar And with love everlasting, you besiege me In ev'ry moment of life or death, you are. Before a word is on my tongue, Lord You have known its meaning through and through. You are with me beyond my understanding God of my present, my past and future, too. Although your Spirit is upon me Still I search for shelter from your light. There is nowhere on earth I can escape you Even the darkness is radiant in your sight. For you created me and shaped me Gave me life within my mother's womb For the wonder of who I am, I praise you Safe in your hands, all creation is made new. - B.

Yo Aunteas are all back together, and Dawon is spilling all the tea on his trip to the South of France and Spain, including the story behind that photo that sent the Communitea into a frenzy!

Order of Service: - Prelude - Hymn 463 - For the Beauty of the Earth - The Versicles (pp. 120-121) - The Gloria Patri (p. 121) - Psalm 138: With my whole heart I praise You, Lord. Your holy temple I shall adore. And I shall magnify Your Word, Your loving-kindness and Your truth. You answer me when I cry out, And make me strong within my soul. All kings of earth shall praise You, Lord, And they shall sing Your glorious, holy Name. (setting: Arthur Honegger; psalm paraphrase: M. DeGarmeaux) - Romans 9:3-8: For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my countrymen according to the flesh, who are Israelites, to whom pertain the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service of God, and the promises; of whom are the fathers and from whom, according to the flesh, Christ came, who is over all, the eternally blessed God. Amen. But it is not that the word of God has taken no effect. For they are not all Israel who are of Israel, nor are they all children because they are the seed of Abraham; but, “In Isaac your seed shall be called.” That is, those who are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God; but the children of the promise are counted as the seed. - Homily - Hymn 47 - My Soul Doth Magnify the Lord - The Kyrie (p. 124) - The Lord's Prayer (p. 125) - Hymn 584 - Grant Peace, We Pray, in Mercy, Lord - The Collect (pp. 125-127) - The Benedicamus (p. 127) - The Benediction (p. 127) - Hymn 569 - Now Rest Beneath Night's Shadow: vv. 1 - 4 Service Participants: Chaplain Don Moldstad (Preacher), Rev.

In this week's episode of the Transforming Mission Podcast, Tim and Sara dive back into Luke 15:11–32, the parable most of us call “The Prodigal Son,” but Tim calls “The Running Father.” Together they talk about what it really means to lead with grace in a critical world. As they unpack the story, you'll hear why grace moves first, why it costs something, and how it keeps the way home open for people who've wandered off. You'll also discover the trap of the older brother's resentment — and why fairness isn't God's metric — plus why celebration itself is an act of grace. If you've ever felt unworthy, unappreciated, or caught in score-keeping leadership, this conversation will remind you: unworthy never means worthless. Join Tim and Sara for a hopeful, honest look at how leaders can absorb the cost, resist resentment, and throw a party when grace shows up.

On this episode, Matt and Lee discuss our corporate order of worship at Grace Auburn Church on Sunday mornings. The term liturgy has been used for centuries to describe the structured order worship in the gathering of God's people. From the "Call to Worship" to the "Benediction," they dig into each component of our worship services – why we each moment matters – and reflect on our many years of gathering in this way on Sunday mornings at Grace Auburn. For further study or reflection, we found this article from Justin Taylor on TGC helpful: https://graceauburn.co/tgcliturgies

The world's ultimate history lesson starts before the beginning of time, introduces us to a Divine Planner, describes an epic battle between good and evil, projects the restoration of a broken world and answers the age-old question, “what is the meaning of life?” This may not sound like your average history lesson, but it's the Biblical version as described by Dr. Boice in this broadcast of The Bible Study Hour.
