"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old have passed away. Behold, the new has come!" 2 Corinthians 5:17  As we stand on the brink of a new year, think of it as a majestic sunrise breaking over the horizon — illuminating possibilities yet unseen. Just as spring brings forth new blooms from the earth, the coming year offers us opportunities to step into a fresh chapter of our lives. Embrace this moment; like a sluggish computer hitting refresh, you have the power to reset and reboot your aspirations. The Scripture reminds us that “if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” (2 Corinthians 5:17). This verse invigorates us with hope, urging us to discard any limiting beliefs from the past as we honor our journey. We hold the paintbrush to our future, and with each stroke of faith, we create a vibrant masterpiece. 1 Corinthians 2:12 says, "We have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us." Consider the story of Saul's transformation on the road to Damascus. A fierce persecutor of Christians, he encountered God and became Paul, a devoted servant spreading the Gospel. This beautiful reminder shows us that with God, our identities and paths can change in an instant, filled with purpose and promise.  As you reflect, think of one daring faith goal for the approaching year — something that pushes you closer to your divine potential. Romans 12:2 encourages us, “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” Let your faith reshape your way of thinking, releasing you into a realm of new ideas and boundless opportunities. Isaiah 43:19 says, "See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland." Prayer for the Day! Heavenly Father, thank you for helping us to embark on this new year. We place our daring goals into Your hands. Brethren, I pray May the Lord fill you with courage and direction to embrace transformation and renewal, to lay down every burden of the past, and to rise with fresh hope. May His wisdom guide your decisions, His peace guard your hearts, and His joy be your strength in every season. May doors of purpose open before you, and may you walk boldly in your calling with humility and grace. In Jesus name. Amen.

We can't go back to that night in Bethlehem. Can we? The divine incursion into our world is history; it's past. We can re-enact it, but we can't actually see it happen again. Or can we? Each time a man or woman (or boy or girl) is born again, isn't that a divine incursion? Isn't that a "Bethlehem event" that we can observe? Here's Jim to conclude his message, The Witness.

Brethren, as has become traditional at this time of year, this Short Talk Bulletin Podcast episode was written by Dr Bro Joseph L. Blau in remembrance of his father. May we all receive the gift of Emmanu El, God with us, this season. Enjoy, and do share this and all of these Podcast episodes with your brothers and your Lodge.

It was the eternity before Christmas.... That baby in the manger - you know the one - what was His name? Careful: Luke tells us He was officially named at 8 days old, at His circumcision. So what was He called that first week of His human life? Could we use John's name for Him before the world began: "The Word?" The Apostle takes us back to the beginning, and then back a little further.

"When they had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. “Get up,” he said, “take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the child to kill him." Have you ever embarked on a journey that was entirely unexpected yet filled with wonder? Just like the Holy Family in their flight to Egypt, our lives can resemble a GPS-guided convoy, where every turn is divinely orchestrated. It's a reminder that God is our ultimate guide, navigating us through the winding roads of life. Reflect on the unexpected directions you've taken this year. Moments when you felt the gentle shield of God protecting you, as He guided Joseph and Mary to safety. As Psalm 121 reminds us, “The Lord will keep you from all harm; He will watch over your life.” What a comforting thought! Your journey, whether literal or figurative, is under God's careful watch, ensuring that you are always in His loving embrace. Psalm 121:7-8 says, "The Lord will keep you from all harm— he will watch over your life; The Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore." Think of your life's path as a series of delightful detours, each one illuminated by divine light. Remember, as paraphrased from Proverb 16:9, "We plan the itinerary; the Lord books the providential layovers. Delays become right-on-time arrivals." Just like a well-planned road trip, when we are in tune with God's guidance, every moment becomes an opportunity for growth and discovery. Every twist and turn has a purpose, leading us closer to our destination. The journey of life is all about obedience because “Protection packs every journey of obedience.” Every commitment you've made in faith is like a ticket to adventure. As you reflect on how God has supported you, you may realize that obedience often looks like travel. It's a journey into the unknown, but one filled with promise and divine protection just like that of the Holy Family. Remember, “Where God guides, He provides.” Isaiah 58:11 says, "The Lord will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail." Amen Prayer for the Day!Heavenly Father, thank You for being our guide and protector in every season of life. Brethren, I pray for you. May the Holy Spirit help you to embrace life's journey with trust in God, knowing that He has paved your paths with divine purpose. With the end of 2025 approaching and 2026 dawning before us, may the Lord crown this year with His goodness and usher you into the next with fresh grace. May He steady your steps, enlarge your hope, and fill your days with wisdom, courage, and peace. May every closed door guide you to the door He opens, and every trial refine your faith like gold. In Jesus name. Amen.

To the shepherds He was a savior; to Herod He was a threat. If we take advantage of this yearly opportunity to peer into the Manger, we may see a Friend or a Foe bundled there in the swaddling clothes. It's imperative that we know His true identity, and His mission. Here's Pastor Jim with Part 2 of, The Reason for the Season. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at 9:30am, WHKC 91.5FM (Columbus, OH) at 5:00pm, WRFD 880AM (Columbus, OH) at 9:00am.

There's some kind of big holiday coming up, but what are we celebrating? It often feels like the world has almost completely hollowed-out Christmas. All the tinsel and lights and food and music are still there, the package is brightly wrapped - but there's nothing inside. Of course Jesus is The Reason for the Season. And His followers are rejoicing about the Incarnation. But who exactly is this Being who has come to us... and who will come again?

“Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you." Isaiah 60:1  What if a single flicker of flame could spark hope in someone else's darkness? Imagine a single candle flickering in a window on a dark night, its warm glow a beacon of hope for weary travelers. This light not only guides the lost back home but reminds us of our own purpose: 'to shine brightly where we are planted.' Just as that candle draws people in, your invitations to others can shine brightly in their lives, illuminating hearts with love and joy. Remember, "Be a window for the sun, be transparent enough that what warms you can warm the world." Therefore, this Christmas season, consider who in your life might benefit from that glow. A simple act of inviting a neighbor or coworker to your home or Christmas Eve service can create a space where joy, love, and community thrive. This is the moment to share the warmth of your heart — like that steadfast candle — bringing people closer to the light of Christ.  Matthew 5:14–16 says, “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven." Isaiah 60:1 calls us to "arise and shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you." When you share the Gospel, it's as if you are igniting a chain reaction of light. One act of kindness, like inviting someone to join in a celebration, can spark their own journey toward faith. Just as the Ethiopian eunuch found understanding and faith through Philip (Acts 8:26-39), so too can your invitation lead another to experience the love of Jesus. As D.T. Niles said, “Evangelism is one beggar telling another where to find bread.” Your life is a testimony to God's grace — a candle flickering in the lives of others. By extending an invitation, you're not just offering someone a seat at your table; you're sharing the very essence of what gives you hope and light. Amen. John 1:5 says, "The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it." Amen. Prayer for the Day!Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for the light You have placed in our lives. Brethren, may the Holy Spirit help you shine brightly in your communities as you invite others to experience God's love. May your words be seasoned with grace, your hands quick to serve, and your hearts steadfast in compassion. Let your homes become havens of peace, your workplaces fields for integrity, and your friendships bridges of reconciliation. Be patient with the weary, gentle with the broken, and courageous in truth, that your lives might testify to the hope you carry. In Jesus' name. Amen.

Brethren, this Short Talk Bulletin Podcast episode was written in 1975 by Rev Bro Oscar Alan Gwyn. On this winter Feast of St. John the Evangelist, let us remember why each of our Saints John so well represent the duality of our efforts in the Craft. While St. John the Baptist represents the fiery call to action (summer), St. John the Evangelist represents the contemplative writer and knowledge of faith (winter). Enjoy, and do share this and all of these Podcast episodes with your brothers and your Lodge.

How are you holding up? With only a few days to go until the Big One, are you exhausted yet? Stressed out? Depressed? Anxious? Frustrated? Or peaceful? If we could see things from Heaven's perspective - and that's what we're instructed to do in Colossians 3 - we would find pretty much the opposite of what the world's offering. And we would feel that "heavenly peace" that we sing about. Here's Jim with the rest of his sermon, The Mystery: Christ in You. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at 9:30am, WHKC 91.5FM (Columbus, OH) at 5:00pm, WRFD 880AM (Columbus, OH) at 9:00am.

RS12222025_0.mp3Scripture References: Colossians 1 & 3

After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi[a] from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him...” Matthew 2:1–12 Have you ever found yourself on a path you didn't expect, realizing that the journey might be just as important as the destination? Like a GPS recalculating toward hidden treasures, each twist and turn can lead you to blessings you never anticipated. Just as a star guided the Magi, sometimes our own journeys take unexpected routes, leading to greater insights and revelations. The Bible reminds us in Proverbs 3:5–6 to trust in the Lord with all our hearts and lean not on our own understanding. These wise men exemplified this trust, navigating away from King Herod and instead following a new path toward the divine (Matthew 2:1–12). In their obedience, they found not only the Savior but also a profound blessing in their detour. What blessings have you discovered this year? Perhaps it is the deepened relationships or newfound passions that have emerged from unexpected turns. Proverbs 3:5–6 says, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight." As Simon Sinek once said, “Direction is more valuable than speed.” Therefore, it's not about racing toward an outcome, but rather about embracing the wisdom found along the way. Each step and every detour can refine our hearts and minds, shaping our understanding of God's plan. When you pause to reflect, you may realize that the slower pace has allowed deeper growth — a treasure far greater than the quick arrival at your destination. Remember, "A heart fully invested in the search for God discovers not just the destination, but the beauty of the journey itself." Therefore, in your journey, consider the blessings that come from seeking rather than rushing. The wise men searched diligently, and their hearts were not just set on finding a child, but on discovering the very essence of divine love. In your life, the search itself is a sacred mission; every moment leads you closer to a deeper relationship with Him. Jeremiah 29:13 says, "You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart." Prayer for the Day!Heavenly Father, we thank You for the detours that guide us to unexpected blessings. Brethren, I pray that the Holy Spirit help you to embrace the wisdom in your journeys, just as the wise men did. May you seek the light that guides your path and remain steadfast in your quest for truth. In times of uncertainty, let your hearts be filled with courage, and may you find strength in community and faith. In Jesus' name, we pray, Amen.

Send us a textArnie, Fred and Glenn continue to discuss what Peter said about how important God's word is, noting that within it is contained all things that pertain to life and godliness. We look at Second Peter chapter two verses 2 through 11, noting how many times knowledge is mentioned, and the actions Peter says that if a Christian does, he will never fall. Paul told Timothy that the scriptures are profitable for doctrine and a number of other things that the man of God may be complete. Consequently, we talk about the need for new Christians to study their Bibles and grow in knowledge so they will not stumble and fall, which many denominations teach it is impossible for a Christian to do. We discuss what Paul said to the Christians in Corinth about being vigilant so that they wouldn't fall. We note that Paul used an illustration of one running in a race and the preparation needed and the requirement to follow the rules in order to win the crown. We discuss the race and the crown the Christian seeks and how this relates to Paul's illustration. We find that the Hebrew writer uses the Israelites in the wilderness as examples of those who failed to trust and obey God and the consequences of that. The Hebrew writer then shows that some Christians do the same thing not trusting and obeying God and depart from Him. We talk about how important it is for members of the local church to help one another, encourage one another to live faithfully and how this is lacking in some churches. The Hebrew writer has some very specific words about Christians who fall away and what this means. Later on, the Hebrew writer discusses willful sin and the fact that this leads to one falling away. We have a good discussion about this. Paul writes to the Galatian Christians about them considering returning to the law of Moses and the problem with them doing so. We discuss this and note that numerous denominations today continue some of the practices found in the law of Moses which has been done away. We begin looking at what Peter said about Christians becoming entangled again in the pollutions of the world that they had escaped. However, we ran out of time before finishing it. We will begin that discussion in the next episode. Take about 30-minutes to listen in on our discussion. Have your Bible handy so you can verify what we are saying. There is a transcript of this Buzzsprout episode provided for your convenience.

It's not about Christ in the manger; the objective is Christ in you! For all those who think they can fit God into their puny, broken minds, or neatly graph His eternal plan in their seminar, we have Colossians, chapter 1. There we read that the divine strategy was a "mystery," a glorious secret, revealed only to His "holy ones." And to solve that enigma will take us all the way to death, and a new life.

THIS EPISODE Ludlov confronts the darkness... ----more---- ABOUT THE STORY The Hounds of Hübschdorf (formerly called 'Grauwald's Game') is an epic fantasy audiobook by Audio Epics that has been released on Halloween, since it has serious dark fantasy and grimdark vibes. This brand new Witch Hunter Tale is the direct prequel to Witch Hunter. If you like a dark adventure story you'll probably enjoy this grim journey in the original fantasy setting of Hruda, inspired by everything we love: RPG settings like the Old World from Warhammer fantasy, eighties fantasy movies and J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth (amongst others).   PLOT SUMMARY When three Witch Hunters fail to return from a routine investigation, Master Ludlov and Initiate Tolfmann find themselves in a small village near the woods. While investigating the strange disappearance of their Brethren, it becomes obvious the mayor is not so keen on their arrival, and the villagers seem to prefer the distraction of the Graunacht festivities to their nosing around. When their inquest reveals a dark mystery involving evil magic and undead, Ludlov faces the true cause of the threat in a place more disturbing than he could have imagined.   WANT TO SUPPORT US?

Brethren, this Short Talk Bulletin Podcast episode was written by MW B. Stuart Parker, PGM – Manitoba, and was first delivered to a Communication of the Grand Lodge of North Dakota. Here, MW Bro Parker should like to attempt to sketch out his concept of the true heart of the Fraternity, the source of the power that Freemasonry has to develop such an intense loyalty in the hearts of the husbands and fathers and sons who are its members. Enjoy, and do share this and all of these Podcast episodes with your brothers and your Lodge.

Today we'll look at God's baby picture. It's a paradox, isn't it? The uncreated God had no beginning, but He gave Himself a human beginning. And that's what we celebrate at Christmas. Jesus is "the image of the invisible God," a kind of living photograph to bring the Transcendent One down into the realm of our senses. And He is much more, as we began to see yesterday in the first chapter of Colossians. Let's continue there, with Pastor Jim.

You didn't get to choose where you were born - but Jesus did! "The barn out back" wasn't Joseph's and Mary's first choice for a "birthing suite" - or their second choice, or their one-hundredth choice. To them it must have seemed like an emergency, makeshift solution. But all was going according to plan. Today Jim will help us see the Lord's birth from Heaven's perspective.

The stronger Christian is obligated to the weaker - but doesn't the weaker one have some responsibilities, too? We've been looking at Romans 14, and "doubtful things," to use the old term, matters of individual conscience. We're going to have higher expectations of those who are more mature, but even the most fragile believer has something to do, something to offer.

We discuss what it's really like to work with family, how they naturally fell into different roles, and why embracing each other's strengths has been key to their success.We also dig into how they educate clients, move past the “I just need a logo” mindset, and create space for projects that don't neatly fit into one box, from branding and packaging to fonts, board games, and beyond. Along the way, they share honest insight from quitting their day jobs, navigating LinkedIn as designers, and why doing work you genuinely enjoy tends to attract the right opportunities. All that and more when you listen to this episode:What it's like building a studio with your sibling How different creative strengths naturally turn into clear business rolesThe chaos vs. structure dynamic and why both are necessaryWhen and how they decided to quit their full-time jobsWhy educating clients is a designer's responsibility How showing process helps clients understand valueWhy they don't niche themselves into a single categoryHow fun, personality-driven work attracts the right clients Why they removed pressure from fonts by not tying them to revenue goalsCold outreach, long-game visibility, and unexpected referralsDesigning a full board game and how that opportunity came togetherLetting curiosity lead to new creative directions Connect with Brethren Design Co.Website: https://www.brethrendesignco.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brethrendesignco/ Mentioned in this episode:Chicken and the WolfSliced Beer Four Fathers (Website Design) Joe MooreVision Board KitSolid RootsMind the GapNetflix Project Connect with Katie & Ilana from Goodtype Goodtype Website Goodtype on Instagram Goodtype on Youtube Love The Typecast and free stuff?

Brethren, this Short Talk Bulletin Podcast episode was written by Bro Conrad Hahn, and first published in December 1964. In the Entered Apprentice degree, brotherly love, relief, and truth are described as the Tenets of the Fraternity, and this Bulletin is meant to instruct us about the second of these, Relief. Enjoy, and do share this and all of these Podcast episodes with your brothers and your Lodge, and do make this second tenet a rule and guide for your conduct.

You can't judge someone into joy. If righteousness, peace and joy are the land, sea and sky of the Kingdom of God, then what are we doing worrying about our brother's diet? Or have we forgotten which kingdom we're in? Paul writes very clearly about these things in Romans 14; the challenge is applying them to our day, and our concerns.

Maple Park Church Sermon - December 14th, 2025 - Third Sunday of Advent by Maple Park Church

The first obstacle to Christian unity is my pride. That's a real "Dog Bites Man" headline, isn't it? Of course our pride ruins everything - but especially our ability to bond with others. And that's essential for the church to flourish, and carry out God's program.

THIS EPISODE The game comes to an end... ----more---- ABOUT THE STORY The Hounds of Hübschdorf (formerly called 'Grauwald's Game') is an epic fantasy audiobook by Audio Epics that has been released on Halloween, since it has serious dark fantasy and grimdark vibes. This brand new Witch Hunter Tale is the direct prequel to Witch Hunter. If you like a dark adventure story you'll probably enjoy this grim journey in the original fantasy setting of Hruda, inspired by everything we love: RPG settings like the Old World from Warhammer fantasy, eighties fantasy movies and J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth (amongst others).   PLOT SUMMARY When three Witch Hunters fail to return from a routine investigation, Master Ludlov and Initiate Tolfmann find themselves in a small village near the woods. While investigating the strange disappearance of their Brethren, it becomes obvious the mayor is not so keen on their arrival, and the villagers seem to prefer the distraction of the Graunacht festivities to their nosing around. When their inquest reveals a dark mystery involving evil magic and undead, Ludlov faces the true cause of the threat in a place more disturbing than he could have imagined.   WANT TO SUPPORT US?

Are the "strong" really as strong as they think they are? When the Apostle Paul divides us into those strong in the faith, and those who are weaker, what are we to make of that? Is this a proper way to promote unity - by splitting people into categories? Or does he want us to reflect more deeply on who we are, and what is our real position relative to our spiritual relatives? It isn't the position of "critic." Here's Jim to complete his message, Tolerance that Pleases God.

There are just too many opinions these days... that's my opinion. Everyone has a point of view. In the church we even have opinions about other people's opinions - but we don't call them that. No, we have "convictions." And when other people's convictions about how to honor God conflict with our convictions, they're just wrong. Obviously. In Romans, Paul is very concerned about that attitude, because it leads to dysfunction in the Body of Christ.

We delve into the haunting echoes of faith, family, and freedom with acclaimed author Rebecca Stott. Her memoir, In the Days of Rain, is a lyrical and courageous exploration of life inside and beyond the Exclusive Brethren, a fundamentalist Christian sect that shaped her childhood and shadowed her family's history. Rebecca joins us to unpack the complexities of growing up in a world governed by rigid doctrine and separation from society and the Aberdeen era that will forever leave a mark on the Exclusive Brethren's history. We'll explore how her father, once a senior member of the Brethren, led their family out of the sect and how that rupture reverberated across generations. With remarkable insight and tenderness, Rebecca reflects on belief, rebellion, and the power of storytelling to reclaim identity. Whether you're drawn to memoir, religious history, or the resilience of the human spirit, this conversation promises to be unforgettable.

What is "good?" Governor Pilate famously asked, "What is truth?" But he, and every political ruler, should also be asking every day, "What is good? How should the force of government be rightly applied?" As we're looking into Romans 12 and 13, we're finding a lot of good insights into how Christians ought to relate to the state, to society, and to our circumstances.

In the junkyard the meanest dog wins. But we're not in the junkyard anymore. Early in Paul's letter to the Romans we meet a different kind of God: The incorruptible Judge who does not wink at sin, but who also saves from sin. In chapter 12 we're charged with being a different kind of worshiper. We have duties not just to Heaven, but here on Earth. We'll talk about 4 of those obligations in a message called, Delivered by Deferring.

Look... Present... Renew. If we've understood the truths spelled-out in the first 11 chapters of Romans, a response should be rising inside us. In chapter 12 Paul shows us how to shape that response: Take a good look at God's good mercies, make a rational offering of our bodies, and renew our minds. The Apostle gets more specific as he goes on. Here's Jim with the conclusion of his sermon, Living the Good Life.

Have you laid your 67 percent on the altar? If God has my spirit and my soul, but not my body, isn't He missing about a third of me? Well, we can't split ourselves up into percentages that way. So the question is, if we've given Him less than all, are we really "His" at all? In Romans 12 Paul urges us to give a kind of offering that involves all 3 dimensions of our being. And it's all because of the mercies of God.

We highlight and rejoice in the closed countries where we are heard. We want you to know we remember you daily in our prayers and are blessed you listen. I struggled in the first year of my salvation in the area of prayer. Forty-five or so years ago, I neither understood, comprehended, nor apprehended that I was in a new and authentic relationship with my Creator, Savior, and Internal Companion who indwells us all. It took most of those forty years to realize the true nature of eternal life was:"And this is eternal life, that they may know Thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom Thou hast sent."John 17:3How I learned that in the 20-year struggle with depression!Here is a quick outline of where we begin this episode.1. We were created for community with our Creator.2. We are born estranged (not in community) from our Creator.3. We have been recreated for the community with our Creator. 4. Our journey, peace, meaning, comfort, contentment, and abundant life are born, nurtured, and grown from our community with our Creator. 5. Heaven, eternal life, is learning to know our Creator.Our So What?And our journey in this lifetime. The peace, meaning, comfort, contentment, and abundant life we were promised and longed for are only nurtured and grown in our community with our Heavenly Father. Brethren, let's pray for one another."What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more."

The pill that cures your disease is in your mouth. Salvation - achieving right standing with God, and receiving all the benefits that go with that - is hard. It's harder than hard, if you try to do it yourself. But if we let God give us His rightness, then it's easy. Yesterday we began to look at Romans 10, and we saw that salvation is available to everyone. Jim has two more points to bring out, today. But we open with a prophecy by Isaiah.

Could salvation be that easy? The devil would like us to imagine righteousness as something high and far-off; difficult to attain, even difficult to understand - as if salvation were a kind of sadistic and impossible puzzle. But God exposed that lie way back in Deuteronomy - in the passage Paul quotes in Romans 10. We'll look at that passage today, and Jim will help us make 3 discoveries from this chapter. Here's part 1 of, Mercy for All.

This wasn't Israel's first catastrophic failure. If you want to know what God's going to do with His chosen people now that they have unchosen Him, just leaf backwards in your Bible to one of the many times it happened in the past. Paul is doing that in Romans 9. He picks a couple of scenes from the life of Moses to show that God is sovereign in His mercy, and God is just in His sovereignty.
