Fr. Mike begins his examination of the Paschal Mystery of Christ's passion, death, and ultimate Resurrection. He emphasizes that all of Scripture points to this Paschal Mystery, and that through our faith, we can try to examine the circumstances of Jesus' life to fully understand our own redemption. We also explore Jesus' relationship with Israel and our own relationship with our Jewish forefathers. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 571-576. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

Whether you're 17 or 71, popular or struggling, put-together or barely hanging on—we all need the same thing. And His name is Jesus. We'll see that in this message from Pastor Greg Laurie! Notes: In Luke 8, we meet two very different people with two very different problems. If you feel like your life is falling apart, this story is for you. Read Luke 8:40–48 This poor woman had been in poor health for 12 years.This young girl, who was sick and near death, was 12 years old. Luke 8:41 (NLT)[Jairus] came and fell at Jesus' feet, pleading with Him to come home with him. We all should want Jesus to come home with us. Parents: the best thing you can do is get your children to Jesus. Be faithful. Be consistent. Be present. Deuteronomy 6:6–7 (NLT)And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up. Every young person is looking for three things:a place to belong,a purpose to live for,and to be loved. Jairus had great faith in Christ. Then this woman burst on the scene.How easily Jairus could have resented this intrusion. Jesus is never late. He is always on time. This woman had been sick for 12 long years with no hope for a cure. Maybe you, too, need a healing touch from Jesus right now.Reach out to Him as this desperate woman did. Jesus literally said, “Who touched Me on my clothes?I felt in myself the power going out from Me.” The Bible says, “Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you!”(James 4:8) Read Luke 8:49–50 Jairus heard these dreadful words, “Your daughter is dead.” But Jesus said, “Don’t be afraid. Just have faith.” Jairus had to choose which voice to listen to. “Fear not, for I am with you; I will strengthen you.”(Isaiah 41:10) “Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”(John 14:27) “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”(Hebrews 13:5) “I know the thoughts that I think toward you, thoughts of peace, and not of evil.”(Jeremiah 29:11) How do you hear the voice of God?By opening the Bible. Read Luke 8:51–53 God doesn’t just care about your afterlife.He also cares about you in this life. 1 Timothy 6:17b (ESV)God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy. John 5:24"I tell you the truth, those who listen to My message and believe in God who sent Me have eternal life. They pass from death to life.” The woman needed Jesus.Jairus needed Jesus.That little 12-year-old girl needed Jesus.And so do you. Turn to Jesus. Only Jesus can give meaning to your life and hope beyond death. Everyone needs Jesus. — Become a Harvest Partner today and join us in knowing God and making Him known through media and large-scale evangelism, our mission of over 30 years.

Words are powerful. Though small and easily spoken, they can carry immense weight—capable of bringing comfort or causing deep wounds. Scripture compares the tongue to a fire, something that can quickly grow out of control and cause lasting damage. In James 3, we are reminded that even a small spark can set an entire forest ablaze. In the same way, a single careless or angry word can leave scars that linger far longer than we expect. Many of us know what it feels like to be on the receiving end of those words—to be hurt, discouraged, or deeply wounded by something spoken in anger. And if we’re honest, we also know what it’s like to be the one who spoke too quickly. Anger itself is not the problem—but unrestrained anger often leads to words we cannot take back. In those moments, our natural response may be to fight fire with fire—to return hurt for hurt. But Scripture calls us to a different way. Jesus modeled this perfectly. Even when He was insulted and mistreated, He did not respond with harsh words. Instead, He chose restraint, grace, and trust in the Father. His example shows us that strength is not found in reacting quickly, but in responding wisely. When we are hurt by others, forgiveness can feel incredibly difficult. Yet holding onto anger only continues the cycle of pain. God invites us to release that burden, to forgive as we have been forgiven, and to allow His Spirit to guide our responses. Likewise, when we are tempted to speak in anger, we can ask God to help us pause—to listen more than we speak, and to choose words that build up rather than tear down. The same mouth that can wound also has the power to heal. Through the work of the Holy Spirit, our words can become instruments of encouragement, truth, and grace. Main Takeaways Words have the power to deeply wound or to bring healing. Uncontrolled anger can lead to harmful speech. Believers are called to respond to hurt with grace, not retaliation. Jesus modeled restraint and love even when facing harsh words. The Holy Spirit helps guide our speech and transform our responses. Today’s Bible Verse “When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can turn the whole animal. Or take ships as an example. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot wants to go. Likewise, the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole body, sets the whole course of one’s life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell” (James 3:3-6, NIV).

A search begins across heaven, earth, and under the earth… yet no one is found worthy to open it. That is, until the Lion of the tribe of Judah—the Lamb who was slain—steps forward.This passage reveals far more than end-times prophecy. It unveils the identity, authority, and worthiness of Jesus Christ as King, Redeemer, and the only one able to execute God's divine plan.In this episode, we explore:The meaning of the scroll and its seven sealsWhy no one in creation was worthy to open itThe dual identity of Jesus as both Lion and LambThe significance of the seven spirits of GodHeavenly worship and what it reveals about Christ's authorityWhat it truly means to surrender and live under His LordshipThis isn't just about prophecy—it's about who Jesus is right now and how that demands a response from us.If Revelation is about anything, it is this: Jesus Christ is worthy—and our lives must reflect that truth.Episode Summary (Bullet Format – For Blog/Show Notes)The scroll represents God's divine plan and authorityWritten on both sides → completeness and perfectionSeven seals → divine authority and total securityNo one is worthy → highlights human and angelic limitationJesus alone is worthy → both Lion (authority) and Lamb (sacrifice)The seven spirits → fullness of God's SpiritWorship in heaven centers on Jesus, not manBelievers are redeemed to become a kingdom and priestsTrue faith = surrender, obedience, and allegiance to ChristCall to Action (CTA)Subscribe for ongoing deep biblical teachingShare this episode with others studying RevelationReflect: Is Jesus truly Lord over every area of your life?Revelation 5, seven seals, scroll of God, Lion of Judah, Lamb of God, Jesus Christ authority, end times prophecy, Bible teaching, Christian podcast, worship in heaven, worthiness of Christ, biblical prophecy explained, TS Wright Speaks, Book of Revelation study, faith and obedience, kingdom of God, apocalyptic scripture#Revelation5 #WorthyIsTheLamb #BibleTeaching #ChristianPodcast #EndTimes #JesusIsLord #FaithAndObedience #KingdomOfGod #TSWrightSpeaks
Sam and Dylan are back to break down: Comment of the Week, Dylan's K-pop Demon Hunters confession, Trump asking NATO to join another bombing campaign and NATO basically telling him to kick rocks, the current Middle East escalation and whether Bibi Netanyahu is actually dead or being propped up for prophecy optics, conspiracy theories around Israel, Lebanon, and who's actually getting hit, the USS Tripoli deployment and what it means for boots on the ground, draft paranoia, the idea that world leaders are being kept alive or replaced for narrative control, CIA smear playbooks labeling foreign leaders as gay to destabilize regimes, Saddam, Gaddafi and propaganda tactics, media contradictions around sexuality as both virtue signal and attack vector, currency vs social currency and how elites distract the public while consolidating power. Then the guys go DEEP on Gnosticism, the Nag Hammadi texts, secret teachings of Jesus, and whether reality is more of an energy system than traditional religion admits, plus hunting down ancient Bibles, buying 1500s Latin texts on Etsy, and trying to decode what's actually been hidden from history.

In this Bible Story, Satan makes a second attempt to break Job. Satan removes his health, and Job is faced with his wife and friends, who tragically fail to comfort him. This story is inspired by Job. Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.Today's Bible verse is Job 2:9 from the King James Version.Episode 58: Once again Satan comes into the presence of The LORD, and once again God praises His servant Job, pointing out that even though He allowed Satan to take away everything he owned, Job still praised God. So Satan tries again to break Job, this time by taking away his health. Covered in boils and in grief, Job sits outside mourning his loss and praying to God. His friends arrive to comfort him, but, just like what can happen to us today, the conversation turns towards words of blame instead of comfort. But even in his anger, Job still does not curse God.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

"In today's Conversations for the Journey, host and Care Director Wes Butler leads us in praying through Acts 6:8-15. This week, Wes leads us in prayer for three things: that we would be full of grace and wisdom, for those who persecute us, that we would respond to those who persecute us in love.

This powerful exploration of Isaiah 53:4-6 reveals the profound depths of Christ's substitutionary love for us. We discover that these verses, positioned at the very center of what scholars call the Bible in miniature, contain the condensed essence of the gospel itself. The passage walks us through three transformative truths: first, that Jesus bears our griefs and carries our sorrows out of pure love, not just sympathizing with our pain but actually entering into it and experiencing it from our side of the equation. Second, that justice demanded payment for our transgressions and iniquities, and Christ was pierced, crushed, and punished in our place so we could receive His peace and healing. Third, that we all face a decision—we have all gone astray like sheep, turning to our own way, but the gospel offers us the opportunity to turn back through repentance. The illustration of Dr. Barry Marshall, who infected himself with bacteria to prove his theory and find a cure, beautifully mirrors how Christ took our sin upon Himself to heal us. This isn't merely theological theory; it's the heart-piercing reality that the innocent Son of God absorbed the full weight of our rebellion, prayed for His enemies from the cross, and opened the way for us to be adopted as God's children. The message challenges us to receive this love, be transformed by it, and follow Christ's example of forgiving even those who oppose us.
As we finish our journey through the Desert Wanderings, Fr. Mike zeroes in on the purpose of cities of refuge for the Israelites and the strong bond of community that they shared and maintained as the tribes grew. Today's readings are Numbers 35-36, Deuteronomy 34, and Psalm 121. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

1. Senate Vote and Legislative Status The Senate voted 51–47 to proceed with debate on the Save America Act. All Republicans supported moving forward except Lisa Murkowski; Tom Tillis did not vote. Democrats are portrayed as unanimously opposed. The bill is now in debate, with Republicans attempting to build public support. The legislation would: Require proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in federal elections. Require photo ID to cast a ballot. This is: A common-sense safeguard, not voter suppression. Necessary to maintain election integrity and public trust. Voting is framed as a sacred right earned through American history and constitutional amendments. The speech references: The 15th, 19th, and 26th Amendments as expansions of voting rights. A U.S. Supreme Court ruling (Indiana voter ID case) that upheld photo ID laws. Facts are laid out that: Minority voter participation increased after voter ID laws. The Court rejected arguments that voter ID is discriminatory. 81% of Americans support voter ID laws. Roughly 75% of African Americans and 80%+ of Hispanics support voter ID. 70% of rank-and-file Democrats support voter ID, despite elected Democrats opposing it. Democratic opposition is elitist and disconnected from voters. 1B. Immigration and Election Integrity Link The speaker claims: Over 12 million undocumented immigrants entered the U.S. during the Biden administration. Border security improved dramatically after Trump’s second inauguration. The argument suggests Democrats: Intentionally allowed mass immigration. Oppose voter ID to enable non-citizen voting, allegedly to gain political power. This claim is central to the narrative that Democrats are undermining democracy. 1C. Cultural and Moral Critiques of Democrats Democrats are accused of: Misusing civil rights language (e.g., calling voter ID “Jim Crow”). Holding minorities to lower expectations. Valuing ideology over national unity, faith, and tradition. Voting is compared to everyday activities that already require ID (flying, banking, alcohol purchases). 2. Who is Texas Democratic Senate Nominee James Talarico The nominee is: A radical progressive falsely presented as moderate. Using religious language to promote views on gender identity, abortion, and masculinity. His statements on: God being non-binary, Transgender issues, Abortion, American symbols, Veganism and climate changeare used to depict him as culturally out of touch with Texas voters. 3. César Chávez Hero of the Political Left A New York Times exposé alleges sexual abuse by César Chávez. Chávez was: A leftist icon whose crimes were allegedly ignored due to ideology. A symbol of ethnic tokenism and collectivist politics. The broader scope: The left protects immoral figures if they serve political goals. Identity politics harms rather than empowers minority communities. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

We have arrived at another nugget day, or In Brief day, for the paragraphs on the mysteries of Christ's life. On today's “mystery nugget” day, Fr. Mike recounts the significance of Christ's obedience to the Father and our own obedience to God's will. He also emphasizes the importance of reflecting on the mysteries of Christ's life by reading and meditating on the Gospels and praying the Rosary. Today's readings from the Catechism are paragraphs 561-570.

“Where Is Purgatory in the Bible?” This question opens a discussion about the biblical basis for purgatory, addressing concerns from those who struggle with its concept. Other topics include the role of confession and the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies, as well as guidance for those considering a return to the Catholic faith. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 02:00 – I'm not Catholic because I don’t understand purgatory. 29:04 – I left Catholicism, I'm Baptist and don't really go to church anymore but still follow Jesus. I think we should confess directly to God and not have to go through a priest. 43:09 – I work with a dispensationalist. I want to talk to her about the Old Testament prophecies but before I do, I would like to know, were all the prophecies fulfilled? 49:17 – My children are no longer practicing Catholics.

Many believers carry a quiet burden—the longing to see loved ones come to know Jesus. Whether it’s a family member, friend, or coworker, we recognize their need for hope, peace, and truth. Yet even with that desire, we can feel unsure, hesitant, or even inadequate when it comes to sharing our faith. We often think boldness means having the courage to say all the right words at the right time. We imagine bold faith as something loud, visible, and fearless. And when we don’t feel that way, we may begin to believe we’re falling short. But biblical boldness is not always about volume—it’s about faithfulness. In Philippians 1:27, Paul encourages believers to live in a way that is “worthy of the gospel of Christ.” This kind of boldness is seen not only in what we say, but in how we live. It shows up in our choices, our attitudes, and our responses to others. Boldness can look like extending kindness when others choose criticism. It can look like offering prayer when someone is hurting, even if it feels uncomfortable. It can look like choosing integrity in situations where compromise would be easier. These everyday actions reflect the heart of Christ and quietly point others toward Him. Sharing the gospel is important, and we should continue to pray for opportunities and courage to speak truth clearly. But we should not underestimate the power of a life that consistently reflects Jesus. Love, peace, humility, and grace are testimonies that others can see and experience firsthand. God uses both our words and our actions to reach others. When we take even small steps of obedience, He works through them in ways we may not immediately see. If you feel hesitant or unsure, you are not alone. Ask God for boldness—not just to speak, but to live in a way that reflects His love. Trust that He is already at work in the lives of the people around you, and that He can use your faithfulness to draw them closer to Him. Main Takeaways Many believers desire to share their faith but struggle with boldness. Boldness is not only about speaking—it is also about how we live. Living in a way that reflects Christ is a powerful witness to others. Small acts of obedience can have a lasting spiritual impact. God uses both our words and actions to reach those around us. Today’s Bible Verse Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Then, whether I come and see you or only hear about you in my absence, I will know that you stand firm in the one Spirit, striving together as one for the faith of the gospel.

Are you walking through a trial today? God is near. Psalm 46: Full Text "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. 2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; 3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah. 4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High. 5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early. 6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted. 7 The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah. 8 Come, behold the works of the Lord, what desolations he hath made in the earth. 9 He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire. 10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. 11 The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge.

Doesn't the Bible say that God wants every individual to be saved? And more hard questions.
Today, Fr. Mike points out how the boundaries of the land of Canaan in Numbers remind us that the Promised Land is not a nice idea, but a real tangible place. He also reveals that Psalm 120 begins the Psalms of Ascent, or the Psalms that people would pray as they went up to the Temple to worship. The readings are Numbers 34, Deuteronomy 33, and Psalm 120. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear. Please note: The Bible contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.
Together, with Fr. Mike, we explore both the mystery of Christ's Transfiguration and the mystery of his messianic entrance into Jerusalem. We examine how the Transfiguration reveals that Christ's death was a voluntary act, and that he is truly the “splendor of the Father.” Fr. Mike emphasizes the incredible parallel between Christ's baptism and Transfiguration. That, on the threshold of his public life, we witness Christ's baptism, and on the threshold of the Passion, we witness the Transfiguration. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 554-560. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

It's Mailbag Friday! You've got questions, we've got answers. Segment 1 • Received an email from James, who asked the question last week concerning the difference in the Quran and the Old Testament, where God directs His people to kill those of other nations. He says he accepts your answer as a Christian, but how would you respond to an unbeliever asking the same question—someone who doesn't believe the God of the Bible is real? — James • I'm 42 and own a pretty successful business. My wife is in real estate, and we've been married for over 20 years with two kids. Her income is significantly higher than mine. Am I living in sin, as the head of the household, for not being the main financial supporter? — Anonymous • My name is Mike, and I'm 10 years old. I want to do magic tricks—would that be considered sorcery or lying? — Mike • As Christians, we should be angry at sin. Should we ever be angry at sinners? — Jonathan Segment 2 • My mom is grieving my siblings' resentment toward her. They were raised in a Bible-teaching home but now show little fruit. How can I best encourage her in her hurt? — Anonymous • I know God should be my source of rest, but how do I actually live that out day to day? What does it look like to rest in Him? — Hope Segment 3 • I feel constantly busy—ministry, work, relationships, planning ahead. How do I slow down, rest, and not just default to distractions like my phone? — Hope Segment 4 • I am from India. Can a Christian have health or term insurance, or does that show a lack of trust in God's sovereignty? — Athul • My boss keeps calling a work report “our bible,” and it bothers me. What's the best way to respond? — Anonymous ___ Thanks for listening! Wretched Radio would not be possible without the financial support of our Gospel Partners.

If you've ever said, “This is the last time”… and then found yourself right back in the same place—this episode is for you! In Romans 7, Paul puts words to a struggle we all feel but rarely talk about:doing the very things we hate… even when we know better. This episode breaks down: Why willpower alone isn't working The real reason you feel stuck in the same cycle What the Bible actually says about your struggle with sin And why the answer isn't trying harder, but something deeper If you've been frustrated with yourself, feeling like you should be further along by now… you're not alone—and you're not broken. This might completely change how you see your struggle. Buy my book Becoming Happy and Healthy
There is something uniquely peaceful about the early morning. Before the noise of the day begins, there is a quiet invitation to sit with God—to listen, to speak, and to simply be in His presence. Morning reminds us that each day is a fresh start, a new opportunity to walk with Him. Psalm 5:3 captures this beautifully: “In the morning, Lord, You hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before You and wait expectantly.” God is not distant or distracted. He hears us. He meets us right where we are, even in the stillness of a new day. Spring mirrors this same sense of renewal. After months of cold and dormancy, life begins to reappear—buds form, colors return, and warmth slowly replaces the chill of winter. It’s a reminder that seasons of barrenness do not last forever. Just as morning brings light after darkness, spring reflects the deeper truth of new life found in Christ. Jesus declared in John 11:25 that He is the resurrection and the life. His resurrection is the ultimate picture of renewal—life overcoming death, hope rising where despair once lingered. When we welcome both a new morning and a new season like spring, we are reminded of God’s faithfulness. His mercies are new every morning. His love continues to renew and restore us, even after difficult or dry seasons in our lives. Spring invites us to open our hearts again—to notice God’s work around us and within us. It calls us to trust that just as He brings life to the earth, He is also bringing new life to our hearts. Main Takeaways Morning is a powerful time to connect with God in stillness and prayer. God hears our prayers and invites us to seek Him at the start of each day. Spring reflects God’s faithfulness and the promise of renewal. Jesus is the ultimate source of new life and hope. Every new day is an opportunity to trust God and follow His leading.

On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week, we discussed the use of the abortion pill and it’s dangers. We shared how prayer shaped our nation and encouraged listeners to pray as we approach America’s 250th birthday. Dr. Elizabeth Stevens shared her personal story and what she learned about how God heals us from trauma in our lives. Kyla Gillespie gave us an honest accounting of her journey from sexual confusion to glorious celebration of her God-given sexual identity. Anne Graham Lotz and Rachel-Ruth Lotz Wright shared some powerful truths about God’s purposes through the remarkable life of Joseph. We need to be living with the newspaper in one hand and the Bible in the other. Janet and Craig will demonstrate how to do that by their critical, biblical examination of the some of the headlines of the week.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
