Podcasts about boniface

Pope Boniface VIII, King Philip IV of France, and Dante Alighieri all believed in Christendom, but they had radically different ideas about how spiritual and temporal power should fit together. From Unam Sanctam and the attack on Boniface at Anagni to Dante's Inferno, Purgatorio, and Monarchia, this episode explores the medieval fault line beneath the struggle between pope and king. None of these men were trying to create the modern separation of church and state; all three were profoundly medieval, fighting over what Christendom itself ought to be. #HistoryOfThePapacy #BonifaceVIII #Dante #PhilipTheFair #MedievalHistory #ChurchHistory #Papacy #Christendom #UnamSanctam #DivineComedy Let us know what you think about this episode in the comments section below!

Nos habita hoy el gusto por la oralidad, el respeto por otras culturas, el amor por los animales y la naturaleza y el necesario relato de la identidad individual y de la comunidad. Y lo hacemos con un gigante de la narración para el que todos los días son el día de África y del cuento. Boniface Ofogo Nkama, que comparte en sus libros de relatos, en sus puestas en escena y en sus talleres, la riqueza de la tradición oral africana recogida en historias como “El león Kandinga”, “El elefante que perdió su ojo” y “Paso de tortuga”. Autor también de la trilogía de 'El imperio de los cautivos' y “Una vida de cuento”. Y es que Boniface es un griot. Pero ¿qué es un griot? Pues alguien muy especial: un narrador, un músico y un guardián de la tradición oral en África Occidental. Un griot es el miembro de una casta de poetas y músicos que transmite la historia de generación en generación. Ofogó nos hablará también de “Una vida de cuento”, publicado por la editorial Kalandraka, donde vierte sus recuerdos de infancia, su reflexión en torno a la cultura de la palabra y la cultura de los sabios en cuya fuente bebió durante su niñez.  Disfrutaremos, además, de la sabiduría atesorada que le ha convertido en un hombre, mediador y sorprendente que, a través de sus cuentos y la tradición oral, lucha contra el proceso de deshumanización en la que estamos inmersos. Y lo haremos en compañía de Ignacio Abella. Además, el “Cuaderno de nidos” de Raúl Alcanduerca, el bello relato semanal de Simone Firmani para invitarnos al Festival Rototom Sunsplash y su gran Foro Social (que, por cierto, cada vez está más cerca. Será del 16 al 22 de agosto en Benicasim).  Rosa Villalba Fernández, embajadora de los árboles de ciudad, nos hablará de la casi eterna batalla de defensa del futuro público de la Quinta Torres Arias de Madrid que está más amenazado que nunca. Y el plantabosques Natxo Blanchart López, de la Asociación Arriba Las Ramas, nos visita “Arriba las ramas”, informativo arbóreo mutualista. Club de la Hojarasca: Álvaro Soto, Juan Suárez y Arturo Martín Lafuente. Gracias especiales a Silvia Abella por la inspiración y la ilustración ofoguiana y a las documentalistas: Elena Vázquez, Raúl Domínguez y Eloísa Toscano Y ahora imagina que estás en la aldea de Omassa, que huele a cacao creciendo en las tierras de cultivo, a vino de palma recolectada, a maíz, a cacahuetes, a yuca, a ñame y muchas otras hortalizas, y que hablas de todas estas importancias, con la comunidad bajo el Baobab, el Árbol de la Palabra, sin duda, territorio conmovido… ¡Ubuntu y Arriba las ramas! HT: #GriotEnRadio3Escuchar audio

She's been in the news more often in the last year than at any other time of her 12 year stint on Winnipeg city council, and in Episode 28 you'll hear directly from Councillor Cindy Gilroy about the key issues heading into her re-election campaign.In Part 1, Gilroy reviews initiatives undertaken to preserve infrastructure and restore parks and trees in her Daniel McIntyre ward. 11.00- Marty Gold compares her success in saving amenities for the West End with the destruction of Happyland Pool in the St. Boniface neighborhood. "You're raising a very big challenge that all inner-city wards have ... we don't really balance it out," saying she is "always terrified of what could happen to Sherbrook Pool."17.25 Part 2- Gilroy describes her fight to ensure Sherbrook Pool is properly staffed and that the area is made safer for users, including adding cameras and staff. She advocates hiring locals as they 'get' the community, and wants to help establish programming to train kids to become lifeguards.As to homelessness and addictions, "that is something that has impacted residents and businesses in my ward," and she explains why she supports a managed encampment that city leaders refused to consider. "I cannot understand the rationale for leaving things the way they are... You are correct marty, we would see a reduction in the (emergency) services required... I do think there is room for the province to be part of the discussion."If services were delivered there and "not in neighborhoods where it's affecting families (it would be) much safer than wehave it now." Gilroy also believes overdose deaths would be reduced. 25.30 - Gilroy is asked about the NDP provincial government refusing to provide space on provincial property for homeless women and addicts at risk of exploitation in encampments. She called for law enforcement to arrest the perps.“They need to be in jail. If you are exploiting somebody, if you're raping somebody, they're not in an encampment- I want them in jail, that's the reality… if you're doing something so blatantly violent towards other people, you need to be in jail and kept in jail.” 31.00- In regards to the recent police blitz on open drug use, which included her ward, Gilroy supported it, stating “I have seen very blatant” outdoor drug dealing, and “my business owners are threatening to shut their doors because they feel unsafe.” Importantly, she noted that “sometimes, it was because theywere arrested” that addicts sought treatment and recovered. While Mayor Gillingham directed citizens to complain tothe Police Board after police chief Gene Bowers bowed to the demands of social service agencies to back off the crackdown, “I don't feel as a councillor, I have a say… It's a frustrating system in terms of what I can and can not do as an elected official.”Gilroy explains how the NDP's “Your Way Home” strategyprevents the city from removing encampments and move people along, and a lack of coordination between departments.37.45 Part 3 - We went into overtime to get Cindy Gilroy's views on issues like - The Arlington Bridge controversy after former Councillor Terry Wachniak tried to blow the whistle on potential risks to the public purse -"he has concerns that are valid." - The new restrictions on valuable public input to council, including that "5 minutes is not enough" and being denied the chance to respond to dubious 'verbal reports' by the bureaucrats. - "Dealing with the 'Strong Mayor' model that is not equitable" is Gilroy's solution, as "people who are not on EPC do not have the access to information." - (At 50.40) on the city nearing its borrowing limit: "I 100% think it's dire and we need to prioritize looking at these big massive projects when there's no need"- The "unbearable" effects of the disastrous WinnipegTransit roll-out and routing buses onto narrow residential roads: "I've used the system, they aren't being whiners." ****To support our reporting- martygoldlive@gmail.com

What can a missionary from the eighth century teach us about faith, leadership, history, and using our talents well? Recorded on the feast of Saint Boniface—the patron saint and namesake of Father Boniface Hicks—this episode explores the life of the Benedictine monk known as the Apostle to the Germans and the lasting civilization that grew from his mission.Father Boniface explains how Saint Boniface left England to preach among the Germanic peoples, established monasteries and dioceses, strengthened connections with Rome, reformed parts of the Church, and worked wisely with political leaders who could protect the growing Christian communities. His monasteries became more than religious buildings: monks and nuns cultivated land, educated people, stabilized communities, and helped create the foundations from which towns and cities grew.Joe reflects on what this means today. Saint Boniface did not separate spiritual faithfulness from practical competence. He used language, organization, diplomacy, courage, Scripture, liturgy, and political awareness in service of God. His life demonstrates that Christians are not called to withdraw from the world or reject success. They are called to develop their gifts, use worldly knowledge wisely, and direct everything toward love, evangelization, and the good of others.Key IdeasReading the lives of the saints gives us a personal and often more reliable way to understand history.Saint Boniface combined missionary courage with organization, education, diplomacy, and practical leadership.Monasteries became centers of evangelization, agriculture, stability, learning, and the development of communities.Worldly skills are not opposed to holiness when they are placed in service of God and the good of others.Saint Boniface invested his talents rather than protecting them, ultimately giving his life while continuing his missionary work.Links & ReferencesNone explicitly referenced with a clear official/source link in this episode.CTA: If this helped, please leave a review or share this episode with a friend.Questions or thoughts?

St. Boniface, Bishop, Martyr (Memorial)

Friends of the Rosary,Today, the Catholic Church celebrates the Memorial of St. Boniface (c. 673-680-754), Bishop and Martyr, a Benedictine monk in the Middle Ages who was chosen by divine Providence to become Germany's great apostle and patron. Catholic Germany still venerates him as its father in the faith. The famous abbey of Fulda, where his body lies, has remained the national shrine of Catholic Germany. When he was about to administer confirmation to a group of neophytes at Dockum, a band of barbarous pagans overpowered and put him to death.In today's Gospel (John 10:11-16), we see Christ the Lord as the good shepherd who lays down his life for the sheep – all of us – without hesitation."I am the good shepherd,and I know mine and mine know me,just as the Father knows me and I know the Father;and I will lay down my life for the sheep.I have other sheep that do not belong to this fold.These also I must lead, and they will hear my voice,and there will be one flock, one shepherd."Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Send us Fan MailA quiet monk from Anglo-Saxon England walks into the forests of Germania and refuses to blink. Saint Boniface, remembered as the Apostle of Germany, isn't just a heroic name from Catholic history; he's a blueprint for what evangelization looks like when it's rooted in prayer, sharpened by learning, and willing to risk everything for the Gospel.We follow Boniface from his early life as Winfrith in 7th century Wessex through his Benedictine formation, his growing hunger to preach Christ beyond familiar borders, and the hard realities of missionary work among the Germanic tribes. You'll hear why his strategy matters: patient catechesis instead of cheap wins, building monasteries as centers of learning and charity, and forming stable Christian communities that can endure long after a single preacher is gone.Then we step into one of the most unforgettable scenes in early medieval Christianity: the Donar Oak at Geismar, a sacred tree tied to Thor and to a whole system of fear. Boniface's bold act isn't about theatrics; it's a direct challenge to false security and a proclamation of a God who brings mercy, not terror. We also dig into his commitment to unity with Rome, his relationships with Popes Gregory II and Gregory III, and his work reforming a confused Frankish Church through synods, stronger discipline, and clearer teaching.If you care about Catholic saints, Church history, missionary courage, and what real renewal costs, this story delivers.

Full Text of Readings Memorial of Saint Boniface, Bishop and Martyr Lectionary: 357 The Saint of the day is Saint Boniface Saint Boniface's Story Boniface, known as the apostle of the Germans, was an English Benedictine monk who gave up being elected abbot to devote his life to the conversion of the Germanic tribes. Two characteristics stand out: his Christian orthodoxy and his fidelity to the pope of Rome. How absolutely necessary this orthodoxy and fidelity were is borne out by the conditions Saint Boniface found on his first missionary journey in 719 at the request of Pope Gregory II. Paganism was a way of life. What Christianity he did find had either lapsed into paganism or was mixed with error. The clergy were mainly responsible for these latter conditions since they were in many instances uneducated, lax and questionably obedient to their bishops. In particular instances their very ordinations were questionable. These are the conditions that Saint Boniface was to report in 722 on his first return visit to Rome. The Holy Father instructed him to reform the German Church. The pope sent letters of recommendation to religious and civil leaders. Boniface later admitted that his work would have been unsuccessful, from a human viewpoint, without a letter of safe-conduct from Charles Martel, the powerful Frankish ruler, grandfather of Charlemagne. Boniface was finally made a regional bishop and authorized to organize the whole German Church. He was eminently successful. In the Frankish kingdom, he met great problems because of lay interference in bishops' elections, the worldliness of the clergy and lack of papal control. During a final mission to the Frisians, Boniface and 53 companions were massacred while he was preparing converts for confirmation. In order to restore the Germanic Church to its fidelity to Rome and to convert the pagans, Saint Boniface had been guided by two principles. The first was to restore the obedience of the clergy to their bishops in union with the pope of Rome. The second was the establishment of many houses of prayer which took the form of Benedictine monasteries. A great number of Anglo-Saxon monks and nuns followed him to the continent, where he introduced the Benedictine nuns to the active apostolate of education. Reflection Saint Boniface bears out the Christian rule: To follow Christ is to follow the way of the cross. For Boniface, it was not only physical suffering or death, but the painful, thankless, bewildering task of Church reform. Missionary glory is often thought of in terms of bringing new persons to Christ. It seems—but is not—less glorious to heal the household of the faith.Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

In this latest Papal Snapshot (our second episode this week), we dive into St. Boniface's oath of obedience to the Pope. St. Boniface was appointed by St. Pope Gregory II to be "apostle to the Germans," and brought the Catholic Faith to Germany. In this commission, St. Boniface understood the obedience he owed to St. Peter's successor in Rome as the chief authority in the Church on earth.VISIT OUR WEBSITEhttps://eternalchristendom.com/BECOME A PATRON OF THE GREAT TRADITIONAs a non-profit, you can support our mission with a tax-deductible gift.

Today, 1,307 years ago, St. Pope Gregory II commissioned St. Boniface to evangelize Germany and bring it into the fold of the Catholic Church. In this Papal Snapshot, we uncover what his commission reveals about the ancient Church's very Catholic beliefs about the papacy.VISIT OUR WEBSITEhttps://eternalchristendom.com/BECOME A PATRON OF THE GREAT TRADITIONAs a non-profit, you can support our mission with a tax-deductible gift.

Dans cette émission "Géostratégix", Sara Trabi et Pascal Boniface reviennent sur la guerre entre les États-Unis et l'Iran, déclenchée fin février après une opération militaire d'ampleur menée par Washington et ses alliés. Soixante jours plus tard, le conflit s'enlise et ses répercussions dépassent largement la région, notamment depuis le blocus du détroit d'Ormuz, point stratégique du commerce mondial de pétrole. Une situation qui pèse déjà sur les marchés énergétiques et fait craindre des pénuries.▶ Soutenez notre campagne pour la TNT IDF :

Tournaments were more than an excuse for knights to whack each other with sticks, they were elaborate court events filled with splendor, ritual, and the careful exercise of violence.

Last December, Martin University announced it would close, citing years of financial strain and declining enrollment. The closure brings to an end a legacy that began more than 50 years ago with Boniface Hardin. Hardin arrived in Indianapolis in 1965 after being assigned as associate pastor at Holy Angels Catholic Church. He entered a city marked by racial inequality, police violence, and urban displacement. It was in this context that Hardin emerged as a prominent civil rights advocate. In 1970, Hardin and Sister Jane Schilling founded the Martin Center in a house at 35th and College Avenue. That led to the founding of Martin Center College in 1977, created to serve adult learners, low-income and minority students, people with disabilities, and others historically excluded from higher education. In 1987, the school moved to a larger facility in the Brightwood neighborhood, and in 1990 the institution was renamed Martin University.  Martin reached a high point in 2001 with the opening of a new $10 million campus facility. Hardin retired as president of Martin University in 2007 after more than three decades of leadership. He died in 2012 at the age of 78.

This week, Jake and Bob conclude their series on deliverance and healing by welcoming Fr. Boniface Hicks, OSB to the show. Together, they explore deliverance, not as a fixation on removing darkness, but as the ongoing work of living in the freedom of God's love. Fr. Boniface reframes spiritual warfare using the analogy of relationships and stories, and how our identities are shaped by our understanding of truth and love. They address common fears and misconceptions about spiritual warfare that have been fueled by culture and the practical role of prayer in helping us find the freedom Christ desires for us.   Key Points: Deliverance is fundamentally about freedom in God's love, not removing evil. Every person carries a story that deserves to be heard and healed. Evil spirits try to limit our story but God seeks to bring it to its fullness. Deliverance is an ongoing process, not a one-time event. True deliverance draws us deeper into the love story of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Spiritual warfare is primarily a battle over truth, belief, and identity. Love has the power to loosen spiritual oppression and restore freedom. Prayer is most powerful when it is relational rather than formulaic. Belief is not merely intellectual—it is lived, embodied trust.   Resources: Fr. Boniface's Website   Chapters: 00:00 Introduction 03:10 The Basics of Deliverance 08:58 Deliverance is the Process to Freedom 16:00 Our Fascination with the Spiritual World 24:01 The Subtle Movements Away from Good Lead to Disintegration 34:27 The Battle for Our Stories 43:46 Do Our Prayers Have Power?   Connect with Restore the Glory:  Instagram: @restoretheglorypodcast  Twitter: @RestoreGloryPod Facebook: Restore the Glory Podcast   Never miss out on an episode by hitting the subscribe button right now!

Ron and John conclude Season 6 of Orthodocs.faith with one of the most dramatic missionary stories of the early Middle Ages. They follow Boniface in northern Europe to the Oak of Thor—his axe raised, a crowd watching, and a test of the gods brewing. Was it courageous proclamation to cut down the sacred oak—or cultural vandalism? Join in as they ask what faithful witness looks like when the gospel confronts rival worship head-on. The post Missionary Work, Medieval Style: Part 3 appeared first on Orthodocs.faith.

He lived in Rome during the reign of Diocletian. He was slave to Aglais, the daughter of a Senator, and served as steward of her household and her large fortune. He also lived in fornication with her, and was addicted to drink. Despite these sins, he was kind, hospitable to strangers, and generous toward the needy.   In time, Aglais became troubled in her conscience over her way of life, and began to think of the account that she would have to give to God for her sins. Some Christians told her of the holy Martyrs and, moved by their accounts, she ordered Boniface to travel to Tarsus and bring back relics of these holy ones. Boniface, still deaf and blind to the things of God, said jokingly, "And will you honor me as a Saint if I bring back my own body to you as a relic?"   Boniface traveled to Tarsus with a large escort, well supplied with gold. He went straightaway to the Amphitheater, where he beheld a number of Martyrs being subjected to awful torments for the pleasure of the crowd, but bearing them all with patience and serenity. At the sight, the dissolute steward was touched by grace and felt his heart melt within him. He ran to the Martyrs, fell at their feet and kissed their chains, and loudly declared that he too was a disciple of Christ. So he too was put in chains, subjected to frightful tortures, and finally beheaded, rejoicing and praising God.   Boniface's escort, mystified by his long absence, made inquiries and were astonished to discover that their godless and sinful companion had met a Martyr's death the day before. They paid fifty pounds in gold for his body and brought it back to Rome, thus fulfilling Boniface's own unwitting prophecy.   An angel of the Lord appeared to Aglais and said, "Arise and go to meet him who was once your servant and companion in sin, but has now become our brother. Receive him as your master for, thanks to him, all your sins are to be forgiven." Rejoicing, Aglais received her former lover's holy relics and built a church in his honor, where many miracles were wrought. Aglais gave away her fortune, devoted herself to ascesis and prayer, and was herself granted the grace to work miracles. She reposed in peace thirteen years later, assured that the sins of her past had been effaced through the intercessions of the holy Boniface.

We're back to Africa! Last month we kicked off a little Kenyan series on ​3 Books​ and today I'm thrilled to share another chapter recorded in the heart of pulsing downtown Nairobi in the country's top bookstore. I landed after an overnight flight and immediately filled my belly with fresh samosas, pakoras, curried goat tripe, and fresh tamarind juice ... for breakfast! ... and then, after seeing the city I hopped into a car with Perlexy, who works with our guest in Chapter 104 and current Kenyan Presidential nominee ​Boniface Mwangi​, and drove downtown... We parked the car and met up with Boniface and his son before walking up together to the second floor of a busy plaza. Tucked inside was a 1000-square-foot bookshop that happens to be one of the most influential literary hubs in the country: ​Nuria Bookstore​. That's where I met Bulle (pronounced "Boo-lay") who is of Somalian descent and born 700km north of Nairobi where he was largely raised by his wise camel-herding grandmother (who is 101 today!). Bulle took a business path early in life but as we'll hear his plans changed and now he runs what many consider the most successful bookstore in Kenya and is a huge champion and evangelist for African authors and African literature. Let's hang out upstairs in the Nairobi bookshop and talk about amplifying African voices, growing up among camels, the winding path of purpose, Bulle's 3 most formative books, and so much more … Let's flip the page to Chapter 155 now …

PREVIEW. St. Augustine and the Formulation of Just War Theory. Professor Katherine Conybeare discusses St. Augustine's life and his creation of the just war theory through correspondence with the Roman commander Boniface. Boniface, who was defending North Africa against threats like the Vandals, wished to become a monk. Augustine argued that Boniface must remain a military officer because North Africa needed him, providing the context for when waging war is justified.
