Civil War, the Ides of March, and the Spiritual Godfather. Guest Author: Josiah Osgood. Cicero eventually returned to Rome, but the republic was sliding toward civil war between Caesar and Pompey. Although Cicero tried to remain neutral, he eventually joined Pompey's side but was pardoned by Caesar after the latter's victory. Cicero was present in the Senate on the day Julius Caesar was assassinated. While he was not part of the conspiracy, he celebrated the act and was famously hailed by Brutus as a spiritual "godfather" of the plot. The aftermath was chaotic, as the assassins' hope for celebration was met with a swift popular reaction against them. This shift was largely due to Mark Antony, who gave a dramatic funeral eulogy and displayed Caesar's blood-spattered toga to the crowd. Cicero recognized that Antony's genius utilized the same rhetorical techniques he had mastered: demonstrating feelings rather than just talking about them. This moment locked Cicero into a final, deadly contest with Antony over the future of the republic. He began writing and delivering the Philippics, a series of speeches designed to destroy Antony's political standing. 71450 VIRGIL

  The Philippics, a Tragic Alliance, and a Heroic End. Guest Author: Josiah Osgood. In the chaotic aftermath of Caesar's death, Cicero delivered the Philippics to trash Mark Antony's reputation. In an attempt to destroy Antony, Cicero formed an alliance with Caesar's young heir, Octavian. He believed he could use the boy to further his own political goals, but this strategy backfired. Octavian eventually joined forces with Antony and Lepidus, and together they ordered Cicero's execution as an act of vengeance for Caesar. Legend says that Cicero faced his death heroically, extending his neck to the soldiers sent to kill him. This account was likely perpetuated by his loyal secretary, Tiro, who published Cicero's works after his death. Two thousand years later, Cicero's writings remain a staple for students of Latin and rhetoric. His speeches are still valued for their entertainment value and their insightful political put-downs. His life serves as a testament to the high stakes and theatrical nature of Roman political life, illustrating the end of a republic and the birth of an empire. 8SULLA

We kick things off with Sir Spleenington, the distinguished British predecessor to Spencer's lovably grating alter ego "The Spleen", hiding from Flock cameras and ankle monitors while Spencer attempts to explain that this podcast is technically an American reboot of a British podcast. Kevin actually laughs audibly, which may be a first in recorded history. From there, we cover the very real and very poisonous warehouse fire burning in Boyle Heights, LA, where Spencer went out handing N95 masks to street vendors who promptly did not put them on. We also get into the World Cup bringing tourists to America who are discovering chips and salsa, bottomless refills, and tailgating for the first time, leading to what is probably an AI-generated viral tweet about a Japanese man being spiritually defeated by a basket of tortilla chips at a Mexican restaurant. Then things get truly personal. Spencer recounts a weekend of cascading indignities: a terrible fake-Caesar wrap from Doghaus, a multi-hour Chipotle customer service odyssey involving AI phone bots, a rude supervisor, a robot that hung up on him, and a very long drive to find no crispy chicken. A Magic: The Gathering card he wanted wasn't even in the deck it was supposed to be in. He survived all of this, and his emotional recovery time is getting shorter, which we declare as growth. We close out with Spencer pitching a structured belief system built around summoning a personal "familiar", essentially harnessing the placebo effect and humanity's religious tendencies into something useful and non-cult-shaped. Kevin says he'd join immediately. Spencer considers writing a self-help book. The Spleen is somewhere hiding from cameras. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Polycarp lived at a time when the early church was facing pressure from Rome, false teaching from within, and the growing challenge of preserving the message handed down by the apostles. In this episode of Kitchen Table Theology, Pastor Jeff and Tiffany look at the life of Polycarp of Smyrna, one of the Apostolic Fathers and a direct link to the Apostle John. They discuss his role as bishop of Smyrna, his influence on Irenaeus, his defense of apostolic truth, and his faithful witness even unto death. Chapters:01:00 Who Was Polycarp of Smyrna?Polycarp was one of the Apostolic Fathers, a bishop in Smyrna, and a direct link between the apostles and the next generation of Christian leaders.03:00 Polycarp's Connection to the ApostlesPolycarp was a disciple of the Apostle John and was known by Irenaeus as someone instructed by the apostles and connected to those who had seen Christ.05:00 The Apostolic FathersThe Apostolic Fathers were early Christian leaders who lived just after the apostles and helped guide the church through its first generations.08:30 False Teaching in the Early ChurchThe early church faced pressure from Rome on the outside and false teaching from within, including movements like Gnosticism and Marcionism.10:00 What Was Marcionism?Marcion rejected parts of Scripture and taught a divided view of God, claiming the Old Testament God and the God revealed by Jesus were different.15:00 Polycarp and IrenaeusPolycarp mentored Irenaeus and modeled how to stand firmly for truth while showing grace in secondary disagreements.17:30 Polycarp's ArrestRoman authorities arrested Polycarp when he was 86 years old and pressured him to deny Christ by offering incense to Caesar.20:00 The Martyrdom of PolycarpPolycarp refused to deny Jesus, declaring that Christ had never done him wrong and that he “Nearly 2,000 years later, we sit here and we still remember Polycarp, not because he was powerful or wealthy or famous. We remember him because he was faithful.” - Pastor Jeff Cranston

This powerful teaching explores the divine mathematics of unity, revealing that God's favorite number might just be one. We journey through Philippians chapters one and two to discover that Christian unity is never an end in itself, but always exists for a purpose: to advance the gospel of Christ in a hostile world. The Philippian church faced unique challenges as a Roman colony where Caesar worship was mandatory, yet they were called to live as citizens of heaven, representing Christ's lordship instead. The teaching draws a compelling parallel between athletic teamwork and spiritual unity, reminding us that we are engaged in a great contest for human souls. Just as championship teams require absolute unity to succeed, we must stand together as one spirit, striving for the faith of the gospel without being intimidated by opposition. What grounds this unity is our baptism into Trinitarian reality, the beautiful dance of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit who eternally make space for one another in perfect love. When we taste this divine fellowship, we cannot help but put others before ourselves, looking to their interests rather than our own. This is not mere moral effort but participation in the very life of God, where humility serves unity and ultimately leads to glory.

Due to bandwidth issues, there is no Zoom video for this program. The audio is being archived here and on The Space Show website for this date, www.thespaceshow.com.The Space Show Present Manuel Cuba with The Space Show Team for a general discussion, Sunday, 6-14-26Meeting Summary:The meeting was a space show discussion hosted by David Livingston, with participants including Manuel, Philip, GuySchumann, Marshall, John Jossy, and Sherry. The main guest Cesar from Peru was expected to join but experienced technical difficulties connecting from the airport, so the group decided to reschedule his full interview. The participants discussed various space-related topics including SpaceX's recent IPO, the government's UAP document release, ISDC conference experiences, and NASA's Artemis III crew selection. GuySchumann provided updates on his work in drought mitigation using space-based predictive analytics, while the group also shared insights about recent space conferences and debated whether crew weight and mass considerations might factor into lunar mission planning.Detailed SummaryManuel shared his positive experience attending AIAA in Washington D.C., describing it as worth every penny despite the high cost. The group discussed the potential duration of an upcoming show, with Manuel indicating it should be between 60 and 90 minutes and mentioning that Caesar would have significant content to share. The conversation briefly touched on SpaceX's recent IPO and the mixed opinions from the financial community regarding its economic prospects and future quarterly reporting requirements.The group discussed David's having seen the Spielberg movie, “Disclosure Day,” which explores the concept of “Disclosure Day” regarding extraterrestrials. David reviewed the movie positively, noting it features good acting and innovative storytelling, though he personally doesn't share Spielberg's precise views on extraterrestrials nor how disclosure day will take place, assuming it ever does take place. .Guy Schumann discussed a follow-up conversation with Chris Bures from his last program appearance with us when a listener from Las Vegas, Chris, engaged him and his company about water supply and drought issues in Nevada and the west, where Chris had offered to connect him with municipal and state contacts but the response status remained unclear. Guy explained that while they don't currently have direct municipal contacts in Las Vegas, they partner with a Florida-based company to provide flood modeling and risk assessments for counties in the US, though this partnership is currently focused on Florida rather than the Western states. Marshall raised concerns about weather pattern challenges in Oklahoma, specifically the need to manage both drought and sudden heavy rainfall during harvest season, which Guy acknowledged as a widespread issue affecting both European and US agriculture.The group discussed challenges in predicting and preparing for extreme weather events, with GuySchumann highlighting the difficulty of predicting short-acting events and staying within community budgets. Marshall shared that his brother-in-law could significantly increase crop output with just four months of weather prediction, leading to a discussion about seasonal forecasting improvements enabled by AI and space data. GuySchumann described the rapid technological development in extreme weather prediction over the past five years, noting that progress has accelerated to the point where conferences are overwhelming due to the pace of innovation.The Wisdom Team discussed SpaceX's recent IPO, with Philip noting that many retail investors are making long-term bets on space exploration rather than seeking immediate returns. Marshall expressed caution about buying shares until next week, while David mentioned plans to purchase shares for his trust to benefit his children. Manuel recommended reading Robert Zimmerman's blog post about the IPO, though David thought Zimmerman was overly optimistic. John Jossy observed that space stocks were down on Friday, with some speculation that investors were selling other space companies to buy SpaceX shares.We talked at length about SpaceX's IPO and Elon Musk's public approach to his companies. GuySchumann shared his perspective on Musk's vision for space exploration and how it could inspire public investment, comparing it to the excitement around early personal computers. The discussion touched on how Musk's public persona and rhetoric might change due to SEC oversight, with GuySchumann suggesting he would be more careful out of a sense of responsibility to shareholders. The conversation also covered the regulatory challenges Musk would face as a public company CEO and the potential for litigation, while Marshall noted that Shotwell appears to be the next person in line for leadership at SpaceX.Phil reported that his presentation about moon-based data centers went well at ISDC, with good audience engagement and questions. He also mentioned other notable speakers including David Dillon from Electromagnetic Launch who discussed quench gun technology, and presentations about Venus colonization and biological methods for making structural components in space. David expressed frustration about Blue Origin's reluctance to participate in his show, noting that the company prefers controlled environments where they can restrict discussion topics rather than facing an unpredictable audience.The group discussed keynotes from a recent space conference, including presentations by Harrison Schmidt, Lindy Tompkins, and Bill Diamond of SETI. Manuel shared insights from his attendance at the conference, where he met with Space Tango and a South Korean pharmaceutical company to explore low Earth orbit life sciences facilities and potential research opportunities with the Department of War. The participants also briefly discussed the recent U.S. government's UAP document release, noting that while it generated some media attention, it didn't receive widespread public focus.The group discussed the upcoming Spacecom conference in January in Florida, which Manuel found interesting due to its focus on satellite communication and launch systems. They also discussed the timing of the next SpaceX Starship test flight, which is targeted for July 2026, with speculation about whether it might coincide with the July 4th holiday. The conversation then shifted to discussing Keith Cowling, who received a Pioneer Award from NSS despite controversy, and the upcoming NSS elections where several space show personalities are running for positions.The team mentioned NASA's selection of an all-male crew for the Artemis III mission, with Phil proposing a theory that the heavier male astronauts were chosen for this low-orbit mission to maximize payload capacity, while future missions might favor lighter crew members including women. The discussion included technical considerations about weight, oxygen consumption, and space requirements for astronauts, with David sharing insights from his scuba diving experience about how weight and gender can affect mission planning. The conversation ended with plans to reschedule Cesar's interview.Special thanks to our sponsors:American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Helix Space in Luxembourg, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights, Astrox Corporation, Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University, The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy, The Atlantis Project, and Artless EntertainmentWe use Zoom phone numbers for program participation.For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: drspace@thespaceshow.com for instructions and access.The Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.

AI-generated content is flooding the internet, making it harder for audiences to distinguish real from fake (deepfakes, AI-written articles, synthetic video/audio). People were already becoming skeptical of what they read on Google, websites, and social media, and now AI-content has driven consumer trust in online content to historic lows. For marketers, this means driving online leads and standing out as credible is much more difficult. In this episode, Katie and I talk about ways brand journalism and human-centered storytelling can help cut through the "AI Slop" by using things AI can't develop - real interviews, quotes, stats, anecdotes, and case studies. We also talk about how to approach this journalistic style of content creation in a way that facilitates meaningful connection. *About Katie Wagner: * Katie Wagner spent 15 years as a television and radio journalist, working for news outlets all over the world, including ABC, CBS, Fox, CNN & National Public Radio.

Greg Alba and Jackie Bonsignore continue watching the Scary Movie franchise in order with Scary Movie 5 for the first time, the 2013 parody sequel that swaps in Ashley Tisdale, brings back Charlie Sheen for one wild opening scene, and spoofs everything from Paranormal Activity and Mama to Black Swan, Inception, Evil Dead, and Rise of the Planet of the Apes. With Scary Movie 6 now in theaters and bringing back the Wayans family, Anna Faris, Regina Hall, and more, this Scary Movie 5 full movie reaction is the perfect final stop before comparing Scary Movie 5 vs Scary Movie 6 in 2026.

Summary of Bible Study by Patricia Hudson - June 17, 2026 Topic: Philippians 2 — Joy in Serving Patricia Hudson opened the Bible study with prayer, thanking God for the day, for the opportunity to study, discuss, share, and grow. She emphasized that the Holy Spirit is the true teacher and prayed that the Word would encourage each heart. She also prayed over the concerns of life, including family, health, finances, and daily living, affirming that God is working in every situation and that His love is great and unconditional. The study began with a review of the previous lesson from Philippians chapter 1. Patricia connected the study to the larger theme of being “rooted and grounded.” She referenced Philippians 4:9, where Paul instructs believers to keep putting into practice what they have learned, received, heard, and seen. The central idea was that spiritual growth requires action. Believers are not only to hear the Word of God but to live it out in daily life. When God's Word is practiced, the peace of God becomes active in the believer's life, helping them navigate conflict, hardship, confusion, and everyday responsibilities with stability and wisdom. Patricia reviewed the background of the book of Philippians. Paul wrote the letter around A.D. 61 while imprisoned in Rome. The church at Philippi was established during Paul's second missionary journey after he received the Macedonian call in Acts 16. Philippi was a Roman colony in Macedonia, and the church was mostly made up of Gentile believers. Patricia noted that Philippians is often called Paul's “joy letter” because joy and rejoicing appear throughout the book, even though Paul was writing from prison. This shows that true joy is rooted in Jesus Christ, not in circumstances. A major point from the review was Philippians 1:6, where Paul expresses confidence that God, who began a good work in the believers, would continue that work until it is completed in Christ. Patricia emphasized that God works in us to build character and through us to bless others. The class reflected on examples of teaching, prayer, encouragement, service, and influence in family and community life as evidence of God's continuing work. The class also discussed why the church at Philippi was so closely connected to Paul. Participants noted that Paul had suffered deeply in Philippi, including being beaten and illegally imprisoned because he was a Roman citizen. Acts 16 was highlighted as important background, including the conversion of Lydia, the deliverance of the slave girl, Paul and Silas being imprisoned, and the jailer's conversion. Patricia explained that Paul's suffering and ministry in Philippi created a deep bond between him and the believers there. The Philippian church also supported Paul financially and remained loyal to him throughout his ministry. Patricia pointed out that Philippi was the first Christian congregation established in Europe and became a launching point for the spread of the gospel into Europe. Because Philippi was a patriotic Roman colony, Christians there faced pressure and persecution for declaring Jesus as Lord rather than Caesar. Despite these pressures, Paul's letter to them focuses on joy, peace, humility, unity, and contentment. Unlike some of Paul's other letters, Philippians contains few rebukes. Instead, it is mostly a letter of encouragement, gratitude, and exhortation. The main focus of the lesson was Philippians 2, especially the theme “Joy in Serving.” Patricia introduced the focus verse, Philippians 2:4: “Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.” She also read an easier translation, which says believers should not think only about what they want to do for themselves but should also think about how they can help other people. This set the tone for the chapter: Christian maturity is expressed through humility, unity, and concern for others. Patricia read Philippians 2:1–4 and explained Paul's call to unity through humility. Paul urges believers to be like-minded, to have the same love, to be of one accord, and to be of one mind. Patricia connected this to the issue Paul mentioned in Philippians 1, where some preached Christ from pure motives while others preached from jealousy, rivalry, and selfish ambition. She suggested that Paul may have been addressing attitudes of selfish ambition and division in the church. His answer was not merely correction but a call to humility, unity, and service. A key teaching point involved the “if-then” statements in Scripture. Patricia explained that Philippians 2 begins with conditional statements: if believers have encouragement in Christ, comfort from His love, fellowship in the Spirit, tenderness, and compassion, then they should respond by being like-minded, loving one another, and walking in unity. She compared this to John 8:31–32, where Jesus says that if people abide in His Word, then they are truly His disciples, they will know the truth, and the truth will make them free. The class discussed how abiding in God's Word leads to maturity, understanding, freedom, and transformation. Participants shared personal reflections about how the Word of God brings freedom. One person spoke about learning to hear God through His Word. Another shared that when they began seeking understanding for themselves, they realized that some behaviors were rooted in ignorance and began to change as they became rooted in the Word. Patricia emphasized that the truth of God's Word can make people free from their past, from things spoken over them, from wrong patterns, and even from themselves. The Word of God brings healing, clarity, growth, and forward movement. Patricia then connected Philippians 2 to Philippians 4:8–9, where Paul instructs believers to think on things that are true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent, and praiseworthy. She explained that peace is connected to what believers meditate on and practice. People often seek peace while filling their minds with stress, negativity, or things they cannot change. Patricia encouraged the class to allow God to help them with the matters of their own lives and not become overwhelmed by burdens God has not assigned them to carry. When God does call believers to speak or act, they should do so boldly, then release the results to Him. The study then moved to Philippians 2:5–11, where Paul presents Jesus Christ as the supreme example of humility. Patricia read the passage: “Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus.” She emphasized that Jesus, though equal with God, humbled Himself, took the form of a servant, came in human likeness, and became obedient to death, even death on the cross. Because of this, God highly exalted Him and gave Him the name above every name. Patricia explained that Christ's example gives believers grace to desire and imitate humility. To further explain the deity and supremacy of Christ, Patricia read from Colossians 1 and Colossians 2. She highlighted that Christ is the visible image of the invisible God, that all things were created through Him and for Him, that He existed before all things, and that He holds all creation together. She also emphasized that the fullness of God dwells in Christ and that believers are complete through their union with Him. This helped connect Christ's humility with His greatness: Jesus served not because He was weak, but because of divine love and purpose. Patricia explained that serving others does not always begin with desire or joy. Sometimes believers serve while grieving, while sick, while tired, or while dealing with personal challenges. Yet Christ's example teaches that service is rooted in humility, obedience, and love rather than selfish ambition. Class participants reflected on how serving together creates a bond among believers. One participant noted that when people serve together through grief, sickness, and hardship, they develop a common purpose and a special bond, much like Paul had with the Philippian church. The lesson continued with Philippians 2:12–18. Patricia read Paul's instruction to “work out your own salvation with fear and trembling,” while also emphasizing that “it is God who works in you both to will and to do His good pleasure.” She used the Living Bible wording: “For God is at work within you, helping you want to obey him, and then helping you do what he wants.” Patricia raised an important discussion question: if God is working in believers and helping them obey, why do believers still need to submit to biblical conditions and make choices? The class answered that believers still have a choice. God gives grace, desire, and power, but believers must submit their will to Him. Another important emphasis was Philippians 2:14–16, where Paul tells believers to do all things without complaining and disputing so they may shine as lights in a dark world. Patricia explained that complaining, arguing, bickering, and strife do not reflect a transformed life. She noted that in families, workplaces, and other environments, people can easily fall into conversations focused on everything that is wrong. Believers must sometimes step back from that atmosphere and choose not to participate in negativity. Instead, they are called to speak life, be light bearers, and demonstrate the transforming power of God's Word. Patricia shared a personal testimony about coming to herself, similar to the prodigal son. She reflected on a time in her younger years when she realized she had drifted from what she knew was right. She remembered how her mother-in-law, Gay Nell Hudson, shared a gospel tract with her and planted a seed that helped lead her toward the Lord. Patricia used this testimony to show the power of prayer, the Word, and personal witness. One person's light can touch another life, and that life can go on to touch many others. Toward the end of the study, Patricia briefly introduced the final section of Philippians 2, which discusses Timothy and Epaphroditus. She encouraged the class to finish reading the chapter on their own. Timothy was with Paul during his ministry and imprisonment, and Epaphroditus was sent by the Philippian church to bring support to Paul in Rome. Patricia explained that Paul was under house arrest, likely chained to rotating guards, which gave him repeated opportunities to preach the gospel. Even in confinement, Paul continued spreading the Word. His imprisonment became another platform for ministry. Patricia concluded by assigning the next study passages. The class would continue with Philippians 3 on July 2 and Philippians 4 on July 15. She encouraged everyone to keep studying, reading, and preparing so they could continue sharing insights during the discussion. The study closed in prayer. Patricia thanked God for His fullness revealed in Christ, for His plan in each person's life, and for the people who prayed, planted seeds, and helped open hearts to the gospel. She thanked God that since the moment believers received Christ, He has continued working in their lives. She prayed that the Word they had learned, seen, heard, and experienced would continue to be practiced, and that God's peace would guide them. Overall, Patricia Hudson's Bible study taught that Philippians 2 calls believers to live out their faith through humility, unity, service, obedience, and spiritual maturity. The Christian life is not passive. God works in believers, but believers must also choose to obey, serve, avoid complaining, walk in love, and shine as lights in the world. True joy is found not in comfort or circumstances, but in Christ-centered service and in practicing the Word of God.

Who is the mysterious "man of lawlessness" in 2 Thessalonians 2? In this episode, pastor Stephen Baker examines one of the most debated passages in all of eschatology. While many Christians view this text as a prediction of a future Antichrist, this study explores whether Paul was instead describing first-century events leading up to the destruction of Jerusalem in A.D. 70. By examining the apostasy, the temple, the restrainer, and the historical setting of Nero Caesar, we consider how Paul's warning would have been understood by its original audience and what it teaches us about judgment, rebellion, and the last days.

In the jaws of a trap, Jesus utters 10 simple words that changed the world. In Mark 12:13-17, the Pharisees and Herodians unite in an attempt to force Jesus into an impossible choice: oppose Caesar and face execution, or support Roman taxation and lose the support of the people. Instead, Jesus responds with ten simple words that transformed the world's understanding of government, authority, and allegiance. And it was impossible to argue against. How should Christians relate to government? What rights does God give secular governments? What demands are they free to make, and where are the limits? And what belongs only to God? How do believers faithfully live in two kingdoms without divided loyalty? If you enjoy the episode, please consider subscribing to the podcast and leaving a 5-stars rating.

Matthew 22:15-22

Year A – Pentecost 3; Lectionary 11 – June 14, 2026 Pastor Megan Floyd             Matthew 9:35 - - 10:23   Grace and peace to you from God, our Creator, from the Holy Spirit, our Sustainer, and from Jesus Christ, who sends us out with compassion to welcome and serve. Amen. *** Last weekend was one of those weekends that reminds me why I love the church. On Saturday, many of us gathered with our neighbors to first worship, and then celebrate at the Pride Festival. We shared smiles, conversations, and reminders that God's love is for all people. Then, on Sunday, we worshiped together here in celebration of Pride Month, giving thanks for the beautiful diversity of God's creation and for the truth that every person bears the image of God. Then this past week, our congregation joined with three other churches for Vacation Bible School. Children filled the church with laughter… and a bit of chaos. Friendships were formed. Stories were shared. Meals were served. New faces became familiar faces. On the surface, Pride celebrations and Vacation Bible School might seem like very different events. But as I reflected on today's Gospel from Matthew, I realized they share something important. Both were acts of hospitality.Both were ways of saying, "There is a place for you here." …and both were opportunities to share the good news of God's love. And that is exactly what Jesus is talking about in today's Gospel. Matthew tells us that Jesus went throughout the cities and villages, teaching, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom, and curing every disease and sickness. Then comes one of the most moving descriptions in all of Scripture: "When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd." Everything that follows… flows from that compassion. Jesus does not look at the crowds and see problems to be solved. He does not see enemies to defeat. He does not see people to judge. He sees people who are hurting. …People who are exhausted. …He sees people who have been pushed aside and wounded by systems of power and oppression. And his heart breaks for them. Jesus was moved by his compassion… to act. And you see, that is where the mission of the church begins. Not with strategy or plans for growth. Nope. The mission of the church… begins with compassion. Except… this is often where we get things wrong. We hear Jesus sending the disciples out… and we immediately think of evangelism as persuasion or recruitment. We imagine that our job is to convince people to come to our church and be part of our community. And this isn't a bad thing… I think our community is absolutely wonderful and I definitely think people should come check us out! But that is not what Jesus sends the disciples to do. In the Roman world, people would have immediately recognized the language of "proclaiming good news." When Rome conquered a territory, messengers would arrive announcing the "good news" that Caesar was now in charge. And… they came backed by military force… carrying the power of empire. …They came with the expectation that everyone would submit. Jesus… sends his followers out in exactly the opposite way. They carry no weapons, and they bring no wealth. …They travel with almost nothing so they must depend on the hospitality of strangers. They cannot force anyone to listen or compel anyone to receive them. They simply arrive… bearing peace… and offer healing. They proclaim that the kingdom of heaven has come near… And then they leave the response up to others. If people receive them, they stay, but if people reject them, they move on. This is such a radically different vision of God's kingdom. …The kingdom of God advances not through coercion but through compassion. Not through domination and force… but through love and hospitality. And perhaps that is why Jesus' words about shaking the dust from their feet can sound so startling. When a town refuses to receive the message, Jesus tells the disciples not to stay and argue. Not to keep fighting. Not to force the issue. Just move on. The good news must be shared. There are too many hurting people to spend all our energy trying to convince those who have already closed their hearts. And then Jesus invokes Sodom and Gomorrah. Now, those names carry a lot of baggage… but I think, especially so, during Pride Month. Many people immediately assume that Sodom and Gomorrah represent God's judgment against LGBTQ+ people. …But Scripture itself tells a different story. The prophet Ezekiel says in chapter 16:49, "This was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had arrogance, excess of food, and prosperous ease but did not aid the poor and needy." The sin of Sodom was not love… It was violence… and exploitation. It was the refusal of hospitality. It was the failure to welcome and care for strangers. It was the absence of compassion. In other words, it was the very opposite of the kingdom Jesus proclaims. Wherever people are dehumanized or rejected… wherever power is used to exclude rather than welcome… in those places… it is appropriate to invoke Sodom and Gomorrah. But wherever compassion, hospitality, and love flourish… in those places… the kingdom of God is drawing near. This week, as many of us celebrated the start of Pride Month, I saw glimpses of that kingdom. I saw people who felt safe and seen. …I saw people free to celebrate who God created them to be. I saw joy… and love and community… I saw reminders that every human being bears the Imago Dei—the image of God. And that matters. Especially in a week when the Southern Baptist Convention voted to further restrict women's leadership in ministry. Such actions stand in stark contrast to the expansive movement of God's Spirit throughout Scripture. After all, look at the people Jesus called. …Fishermen… Tax collectors… Political zealots… men AND women. Jesus called the powerful and the powerless… the respectable and the overlooked. Jesus gathered an astonishingly diverse community of disciples. It matters… not because diversity just is a modern value… but because God's kingdom has always been larger than our categories… and the church is at its best when it reflects the wideness of God's embrace. Because the good news is that God's grace is for ALL people, and that Christ's love is wider than our fears and our divisions. The good news is that every person is created in God's image and invited into God's beloved community. The good news is that wherever there is genuine love, God is already at work. That is the Gospel… and that is why it matters. Because there are still crowds all around us who are harassed and helpless. People longing for belonging… carrying wounds and wondering if they matter… wondering if they are loved… People searching for peace. And Jesus still sees them. …Jesus still has compassion… and Jesus still sends disciples to greet them… disciples of all colors, genders, and sexualities… Jesus still calls them… and sends them to greet the people that Jesus loves. My hope and prayer is that we become the kind of church that reflects the heart of Christ so clearly that people encounter that compassion through us. And honestly, I already see that here… I saw it at Pride… I saw it at Vacation Bible School… I saw it in the friendships that were formed… the meals shared… the laughter all around… and the welcome extended. Every act of hospitality becomes a witness to the kingdom… Every gesture of welcome becomes an act of evangelism… Every reminder that someone is beloved becomes a proclamation of the Gospel. Because evangelism is not primarily about getting people into church. It is about helping people encounter the love of God. And so… Jesus' invitation today is both simple and challenging. …Go… Go with compassion and humility… Go without needing to control the outcome. Go willing to offer hospitality and… and also… Go willing to receive it. Go… and be ready to recognize the image of God in every person you meet. Go beyond the boundaries of your comfort… beyond the limits of your assumptions. Go… trusting that the Holy Spirit is already at work ahead of you. The harvest is still plentiful. There are still people longing for good news. There are still opportunities to embody Christ's love. There are still communities waiting to experience the transforming power of hospitality. And so let us say yes to this mission… yes to compassion. Let us say yes to welcome… and yes to the delight God takes in the diversity of creation. Let us say yes to sharing the good news that God's love is for all people. For the kingdom of heaven has come near. Thanks be to God. Amen.

As Jesus stood beaten before Pilate, the religious leaders exposed the truth of their hearts: they had rejected their true King. In John 19, their declaration, “We have no king but Caesar,” reveals the danger of trying to please both God and the world. This episode reminds us that divided allegiance always leads us away from Christ.

Tom Logue - June 7th 2026 What if the biggest thing you're stealing... is your own life from God? Most people spend their lives trying to discover their purpose, build their purpose, or create their purpose. But what if the question isn't "What do I want my life to be?" What if the deeper question is "Who does my life belong to?" We live in a world obsessed with ownership, control, and self-determination. Yet beneath the surface is a tension many of us quietly carry: the feeling that we were made for more than chasing comfort, success, approval, or even our own plans. Jesus confronts that tension head-on. This message wrestles with conviction, pride, hidden motives, and the subtle ways we resist God's authority while still claiming to follow Him. It challenges us to consider whether we've been offering God what is convenient—or whether He is actually worthy of everything. If you've ever struggled with purpose, felt spiritually stuck, wrestled with surrender, or wondered why following Jesus can feel so difficult, this message speaks directly into that battle. The invitation is simple, but it changes everything: stop holding on so tightly, and discover what happens when your life is fully placed in the hands of the One whose image you bear.

Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Gospel – Mark 12:13-17 – Some Pharisees and Herodians were sent to Jesus to ensnare Him in his speech. They came and said to Him, “Teacher, we know that You are a truthful Man and that You are not concerned with anyone's opinion. You do not regard a person's status but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it lawful to pay the census tax to Caesar or not? Should we pay or should we not pay?” Knowing their hypocrisy He said to them, “Why are you testing Me? Bring Me a denarius to look at.” They brought one to Him and He said to them, “Whose image and inscription is this?” They replied to him, “Caesar's.” So Jesus said to them, “Repay to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what belongs to God.” They were utterly amazed at Him.

Read OnlineSome Pharisees and Herodians were sent to Jesus to ensnare him in his speech. They came and said to him, “Teacher, we know that you are a truthful man and that you are not concerned with anyone's opinion. You do not regard a person's status but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it lawful to pay the census tax to Caesar or not? Should we pay or should we not pay?” Mark 12:13–14Just prior to today's Gospel, the chief priests, scribes, and elders confronted Jesus in the Temple area while He taught, challenging His authority to drive out the moneychangers and merchants. Though they withdrew out of fear of opposition from the crowds, they sent the Pharisees and Herodians to trap Him (cf. Mark 11:27–33). The alliance of these five groups, who were often opposed to one another—especially the Pharisees and the Herodians—well illustrates the old adage: “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”The Pharisees were known for their strict adherence to oral traditions derived from the Mosaic Law. They frequently clashed with the chief priests and elders, who focused on Temple worship and ceremonial rites.The Herodians were despised by both the Pharisees and the other leaders for their support of Herod and Roman occupation. Their allegiance to Rome enabled them to maintain political influence under Herod's rule. Despite their usual animosity, these groups united in their shared opposition to Jesus. His ongoing influence among the people, His teachings that exposed their hypocrisy, and His actions in the Temple all threatened their authority and control.Though all five of these groups are less than inspirational, we can learn from them. They depict fallen human tendencies—such as pride, fear, and self-interest—that we all struggle with. First, true unity only comes from aligning ourselves with God and His Truth, which fosters humility, charity, and a desire to seek God's will above our own interests. By contrast, the “unity” shared by this coalition of factions was grounded in malice. Hatred can so blind us that we turn from our core values and seek ways to fuel our resentment. This is precisely what these normally divided groups did: Their mutual hatred for Jesus and fear of losing influence over the community drove them to unite in a shared mission of opposition—something we, too, can fall into if we let malice guide us.In today's Gospel, we can also learn from the questioning of the Pharisees and Herodians. They begin with flattery, which is always deceptive and manipulative. Their insincere praise was not meant to honor Jesus but to disarm Him and lure Him into their trap. Perhaps they failed to recall the wisdom found in Proverbs: “Those who speak flattery to their neighbor cast a net at their feet” (29:5) or “Charm is deceptive…” (31:30). Flattery not only deceives others but often ensnares those who use it, leading them into sin, as seen in today's Gospel.Second, the question they ask is a carefully constructed trap. If Jesus said, “Yes, it is lawful to pay the census tax to Caesar,” the Pharisees could accuse Him of disregarding Jewish law and collaborating with Roman oppressors. If He said, “No,” the Herodians could report Him to Herod as a revolutionary opposing Roman authority. Their malice was cunning, but Jesus' wisdom transcends theirs, and He escapes their trap. His response not only avoids their deceit but also exposes their hypocrisy, turning their malicious scheme into an opportunity to teach eternal truths.Reflect today on these fallen human tendencies vividly illustrated by these five groups who were aligned in their opposition to our Lord. When you look at your own “alliances,” what is it that unites you? Shared hate and resentment? A common fear or opposition to something? Bonds formed over shared negativity or resentment are fleeting and destructive. True and lasting unity is found only in aligning ourselves with the Truth of the Word of God, striving together for holiness, and building relationships grounded in Christ. Reflect on whether your relationships draw you closer to Christ or distract you from Him, and seek to realign them with His Truth.Lord of all Wisdom, at times I form bonds, like the Pharisees and Herodians, that are grounded in sin and negative emotions rather than in Your charity and truth. Free me, I pray, from these oppressive sins, and make me honest, pure of heart, and a seeker of the unity found only in You. Jesus, I trust in You.Image: The Tribute Money By Leopold LayerSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

(3) Josiah Osgood introduces Pompey the Great, whose return from the East sparked tension as Cato blocked his arrangements while Caesar initially supported him. The Bona Dea scandal further inflamed the rivalry; Clodius crashed a female-only rite at Caesar's home. Cato pushed for a trial to embarrass Caesar, who famously divorced his wife Pompeia, claiming she must be "above suspicion." Amidst this, family ties intersected: Caesar's mistress was Cato's half-sister, Servilia. These personal and political clashes, including jury bribery and shifting alliances, underscored a system where families manipulated connections across generations.

(7) Josiah Osgood describes the Civil War's onset as Caesar crossed the Rubicon, prompting Pompey and Cato to evacuate Italy for the East. Caesar utilized a strategy of clemency and maintained iron discipline, even executing mutineers in the Ninth Legion. After Pompey was defeated at Pharsalus and murdered in Egypt, Cato led the Republican remnant to Utica. Following Caesar's final victory in Africa, Cato refused to beg for mercy, choosing a graphic suicide to deny Caesar a political triumph. His death transformed him into a martyr, marring Caesar's victory and the future imperial regime.CLAUDIS BEGS FOR HIS LIFE

(6) Josiah Osgood recounts Caesar's campaigns in Britain and the subsequent Great Gallic Revolt led by the charismatic Vercingetorix. While Caesar fought for survival and glory, Cato exploited his struggles in Rome to portray him as a power-hungry threat. Following the murder of Clodius and rising urban anarchy, Cato made a pragmatic compromise by supporting Pompey as "sole consul" to restore order. This maneuver effectively turned Pompey into a junior dictator and Cato's ally. With Crassus killed in battle in the East, the Triumvirate was destroyed, leaving Caesarisolated and the Republic on the brink.

(5) Josiah Osgood explains that by 58 BCE, Caesar's allies sent Cato to Cyprus to liquidate its treasury, a mission Catoperformed with obsessive rectitude. Simultaneously, Caesar departed for Gaul, building a formidable military reputation and a deep bond with his soldiers through strategic risk-taking. The alliance between Caesar and Pompey was cemented by Pompey's marriage to Caesar's daughter, Julia. However, Julia's death in childbirth severed this vital link. Catoexploited this loss, romancing Pompey toward the senatorial side as anarchy and riots plagued Rome, signaling the beginning of the Triumvirate's collapse.

(4) Josiah Osgood describes how Cato's obstructionism forced Caesar, Pompey, and Crassus into an unexpected alliance to advance their interests. Crassus, a wealthy and "shady" financier, funded Caesar's lavish games as an aedile to secure political favor. The narrative explores the cursus honorum, the Roman political ladder involving quaestors, aediles, and praetors, leading to the consulship. Tensions rose over the tribunate's veto power and the divide between Cato's Optimates and Caesar's Populares. While the Senate clung to traditional noble power, Caesar's alliance championed land redistribution and grain reforms to destabilize their control.

   (8) Josiah Osgood explains that following his death, Cato became a "Stoic saint" and a symbol of lost liberty, celebrated by poets like Virgil and Lucan. Caesar's attempt to trash his memory in the Anti-Cato failed to dim Cato's luster as a noble martyr. His reputation for reform even influenced Augustus's imperial image. Under Nero's tyranny, Cato's suicide inspired dissidents who sought dignity through defiant ends. The book concludes with the irony of the Civil War: the peace Romans craved ultimately brought a master, ending the Republic through the very rivalry that defined it.CATO SUICIDE

(2) Josiah Osgood details the 63 BCE Catilinarian conspiracy, where Caesar proposed permanent arrest for conspirators instead of execution. Cato countered with a powerful speech advocating death, successfully swaying the Senate and accusing Caesar of involvement. This established their permanent rivalry, pitting Cato's Stoic reputation for honesty against Caesar's pursuit of dignitas through political office and military glory. Cato modeled himself after his famous ancestor, stressing austere virtue, while Caesar used the Roman Forum as a theater of power. Their ideological divide over senatorial versus popular authority began to tear at the Republic.1899

(1) Josiah Osgood explains that in 64 BCE, Cato and Caesar briefly cooperated in a "murder court" targeting those who profited from Sulla's brutal proscriptions. Cato, driven by rectitude and a fear of strongmen, sought to return stolen wealth to the treasury. Caesar, a patrician rebuilding his family's prestige, presided over the court to establish his brand of justice and challenge the senatorial clique. This unique moment of alignment preceded their legendary feud. Both men were scarred by childhood civil wars, shaping Cato's pursuit of virtue and Caesar's ambition for popular authority.CARTHAGE
