For World Aids Day 2025, Yo Aunteas sit with Mario Harper, Director at Health Action Alliance and leader of the U.S. Business Action to End HIV, to discuss a topic too often shrouded in shame: HIV in the Black Community. Mario shares his deeply personal journey, from overcoming family stigma surrounding his uncle's death to leading national efforts to secure critical funding for grassroots HIV services. This episode is about courage, visibility, and reclaiming our narrative. We break down: How the HIV funding crisis directly impacts Black and Latinx lives. The power of confronting family and church stigma. Why queer people of color are embracing words like "sissy" to embody their whole truth. This is a powerful, educational, and necessary episode. Don't just listen—share this with your entire Communitea! Of course, we end with Curiositea! Subscribe now to the Minoritea Report for more unfiltered Black queer perspectives and get them cups ready!

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. Chapter Markers 00:00 - Introduction: Reformed Forum Conference and Speaker/Topic Introduction 00:23 - Welcome and Scope of the Address (Monarchy and Prophets) 03:19 - Speaker's Three Goals for the Address 03:56 - The Gospel is First and Foremost About Jesus Christ 04:36 - Question 1: What exactly do we mean by Christ being in the Old Testament? * 05:44 - Christ's "Crash Course in Old Testament Hermeneutics" (Luke 24) 08:16 - Moving Beyond Mere Prediction: Was Christ's Power and Glory Revealed Before His Incarnation? 08:41 - The View of Macro Typology (Graeme Goldsworthy) 14:36 - Goal 2: Interpreting the Old Testament with Reformed Voices (Vos, Murray, Owen) 21:40 - Goal 3 (Main Topic): The Monarchy and Prophets as Intrusions of the Heavenly Kingdom 23:25 - The Davidic Covenant and the Kingdom's Typological Rest 25:27 - Israel's Demand for a King: Mistaking the Shadow for the Substance 28:25 - God's Design for the Davidic King (Insights from Proverbs) 30:17 - The Great Example: King David and the Heavenly King 35:23 - Jesus Christ as the Exalted King of all Flesh 36:48 - The Prophets' Role: Calling the Monarchy to its Christ-Centered Design 38:52 - The Suffering of the Prophets as a Type of Christ 41:26 - Conclusion: Christ is the Source, Foundation, and Substance of Every Blessing 42:28 - Christ, Our High Priest and King of Kings 43:54 - Final Exhortation and Benediction 44:30 - Closing Remarks
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.

Order of Service: - Prelude: Praeludium in D Minor (J. Pachelbel) - The Confession of Sin (p. 120) - Hymn 250 - A Mighty Fortress is Our God: vv. 1, 2 - Hymn 251 - A Mighty Fortress is Our God: vv. 3, 4 - The Versicles (pp. 120-121) - The Gloria Patri (p. 121) - O God, My Strength and Fortitude: 1. O God, my strength and fortitude, Of force I must love Thee: Thou art my castle and defense in my necessity. My God, my rock, in whom I trust, The worker of my wealth; My refuge, buckler, and my shield, The home of all my health. 2. The pangs of death did compass me And bound me ev'ry where; The flowing waves of wickedness, Did put me in great fear. The sly and subtle snares of hell were round about me set: And for my death there was prepared a deadly trapping net. 3. I thus beset with pain and grief Did pray to God for grace; And He forthwith did hear my plaint Out of His holy place. O God, my strength and fortitude, Of force I must love Thee: Thou art my castle and defense in my necessity. - Psalm 18 - Old English melody, arranged by Austin Lovelace - Hymn 492 - The Law of God is Good and Wise - Romans 7:7-20: What shall we say then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! On the contrary, I would not have known sin except through the law. For I would not have known covetousness unless the law had said, "You shall not covet." But sin, taking opportunity by the commandment, produced in me all manner of evil desire. For apart from the law sin was dead. I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died. And the commandment, which was to bring life, I found to bring death. For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed me. Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good. Has then what is good become death to me? Certainly not! But sin, that it might appear sin, was producing death in me through what is good, so that sin through the commandment might become exceedingly sinful. For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin. For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do. If, then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that it is good. But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. 18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find. For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice. Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. - Jesu, der du meine Seele - BWV 78 - J.S. Bach: Wir eilen mit schwachen, doch emsigen Schritten, O Jesu, o Meister zu helfen, zu dir. Du suchest die Kranken und Irrenden treulich. Ach höre, wie wir Die Stimmen erheben, um Hülfe zu bitten! Es sei uns dein gnädiges Antlitz erfreulich! We hasten with weak but diligent steps, Oh Jesus, oh Master of Salvation,3 to you. You seek the ailing and [spiritually] erring faithfully, Ah, hear, how we Raise our voices to plead for help/salvation. Let your merciful countenance be gladdening to us. - Romans 8:1-11: There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh, that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. 8 So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God. But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you. - Hymn 233 - The Gospel Shows the Father's Grace - Romans 3:19-28: Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin. But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference; for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith. Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law. - Choral Anthem - Now Thank We All Our God - J.S.

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 . (Dawon is out this week, but sends his love from London! ) So, get them cups readyyyy!!

Order of Service: - Prelude - Hymn 18 - God the Father, Be Our Stay: vv. 1 - 3 - The Versicles (pp. 120-121) - The Gloria Patri (p. 121) - Psalm 43 (p. 180; Tone 3) - 1 John 5:1-5: Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves Him who begot also loves him who is begotten of Him. By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome. For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world— our faith. Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? - Soul, Be Still: Soul, be still, await God's will. We are safe in His wise keeping, Surely grief for joy makes way, Laughter fain would follow weeping, Legions e'er His call obey. God doth guide thee as a Father. Soul, be still. Soul, be still, await God's will. Unforeseen, the dawn appearing, Will allay all fear and doubt, Why delay your joy, despairing, Grief and worry put to rout. God doth guide the as a Father. Soul, be still.

Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you, let him be your servant.

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.
