酵母再慢也會使麵粉成為麵包; 芥子的種子再小也終將長成大樹。天主既讓我們生於這世上,便早已賜予我們不同的恩典,使我們在地上以生命影響生命。 .videoWrapper {position: relative;padding-bottom: 56.25%; /* 16:9 */padding-top: 25px;height: 0;}.videoWrapper iframe {position: absolute;top: 0;left: 0;width: 100%;height: 100%;}
2)弗1:3-14 基督為萬物的元首 3願我們的主耶穌基督的天主和父受讚美!他在天上,在基督內,以各種屬神的祝福,祝福了我們,4因為他於創世以前,在基督內已揀選了我們,為使我們在他面前,成為聖潔無瑕疵的;5又由於愛,按照自己旨意的決定,預定了我們藉着耶穌基督獲得義子的名分,而歸於他,6為頌揚他恩寵的光榮,這恩寵是他在自己的愛子內賜與我們的;7我們就是全憑天主豐厚的恩寵,在他的愛子內,藉他愛子的血,獲得了救贖,罪過的赦免。8的確,天主豐厚地把這恩寵傾注在我們身上,賜與我們各種智慧和明達,9為使我們知道,他旨意的奧秘,是全照他在愛子內所定的計劃:10就是依照他的措施,當時期一滿,就使天上和地上的萬有,總歸於基督元首。11我們也是在基督內得作天主的產業,因為我們是由那位按照自己旨意的計劃施行萬事者,早預定了的,12為使我們這些首先在默西亞內懷着希望的人,頌揚他的光榮;13在基督內你們一聽到了真理的話,即你們得救的福音,便信從了,且在他內受了恩許聖神的印證;14這聖神就是我們得嗣業的保證,為使天主所置為嗣業的子民,蒙受完全的救贖,為頌揚他的光榮。 ❖1:3-14本段可說是保祿神學的綱要,因為當中包括教會的一切基本要理:如天主聖三:聖父為萬有的根源與終向;聖子降生,以自己的寶血救贖人類;聖神對基督妙身施行聖化、寵召和預定,並啟示天主的奧秘;基督為萬有的元首,是人類歷史的中心等等。 本段也是一首含義極深的讚美詩,當中3-10節也用作時辰頌禱禮星期一晚禱兩篇聖詠後的(第三篇)新約聖歌。而「為頌揚他的光榮」一句,在本詩內共出現三次,仿如一個叠句(6,12,14)。本讚美詩可分為三小段: 1)3-4天主在愛子內揀選了我們; 2)5-8天主在愛子內預定了我們; 3)9-14天主在愛子內揭示他的奧秘。 1)3-4天主在愛子內「揀選」了我們 ❖「願我們的主耶穌基督的天主和父受讚美!他在天上,在基督內,以各種屬神的祝福,祝福了我們」(3)──這讚美詩以「祝福/讚美」作小引:我們「讚美」天主,因為「他祝福了我。」「祝福」和「讚美」實為同一個動詞:(greek) euvloge,w - eulogeō =(hebrew) %rB - brk。中文則以動詞對象不同,分別譯作「祝福」(由上而下)或「讚美」(由下而上)。「祝福/讚美」這詞在本詩中共出現了三次,這與猶太人傳統的祈禱極相似,但當中卻開宗明義提到聖三:「天主父」(qeo.j path,r - Theos Patēr)、「主耶穌基督」(ku,rioj VIhsou/j Cristo,j - kyrios Iesous Christos)和「屬神的祝福」(euvlogi,a| pneumatikh/| - eulogia pneumatikē),意即來自「聖神」(pneu/ma - Pneuma)的祝福。 保祿稱天主為「主耶穌基督的天主和父」,因為就耶穌的人性而言,天主真是他的「天主」,就耶穌的天主性而言,天主本是他的「父」(迦4:4;格前15:24等)。對新約子民來說,天主不但是「亞巴郎、依撒格、雅各伯的天主」(出3:6;瑪22:32等),更是「主耶穌基督的天主和父」,這稱呼實在十分恰當。 ❖「因為他於創世以前,在基督內,已揀選了我們⋯⋯」(4)──這句話使我們想到主耶穌所說的話:「父啊!你所賜給我的人,我願我在那裏,他們也同我在一起,使他們享見你所賜給我的光榮,因為你在創世之前,就愛了我」(若17:24)。天父「於創世之前」已決定聖子要降生成人,即他從永遠就願意世人,因着他降生成人的聖子成為自己的義子,為的是能「藉着基督,在基督內,同基督一起」愛慕天父。既然天主預先決定了他聖子的降生,他也就為了聖子的光榮,創造了萬有。基督是萬有的近因和直接目的:萬有是在他內,為了他而受造的(哥1:15-20)。(按「在基督內」evn Cristw|/ - en Christō一語在3-14節一段內共用了10次) 保祿特別着重人「在基督內」所蒙受的「屬神的」鴻恩,即謂都是「屬於永生的」(格後4:17-18),且與聖神有關的。4節說明天主何以「於創世以前……揀選了(evxele,xato - exelexato)我們」,就是因為天父要「使我們在他面前,成為聖潔無瑕疵的」,要相似他的聖子:因為耶穌是聖的,是無瑕疵的羔羊(路1:35;伯前1:19)。天父要人在基督內也成為自己的「義子」,相似自己的「愛子」。 天主「在創世以前預選人」這事實,尤其在聖母瑪利亞身上明顯不過:瑪利亞在「受孕之始便賦有的這些獨特的聖德光輝」,完全是來自基督;她是「因自己聖子的功勞,奇妙地獲得了救贖之恩」。聖父「在天上,在基督內,以各種屬神的福分,祝福了她」(弗1:3),超越任何受造物。天主「在創世以前」,已在基督內揀選了她,為使她「在天主面前,藉著愛而成為聖潔無瑕的」(弗1:4)。(教理492) 2)5-8天主在愛子內「預定」了我們 ❖「又由於愛,按照自己旨意的決定,預定了我們藉着耶穌基督,獲得義子的名分,而歸於他」(5)──保祿在此有意說明天主所以「預定了我們⋯⋯獲得義子的名分」的緣由:天主所以這樣做,並無別的,只因為他是「愛」(若一4:16)。保祿在羅8:28-30指出了天主愛人的5個步驟(預知、預定、寵召、使人成義、賜予永生光榮):天主藉着這五個步驟達到了救贖人類,使人成為他的義子,及「頌揚他恩寵的光榮」(6)等目的。 「預知」和「預定」,指天主「於創世以前」,即在「時間以前」所有的旨意;而「寵召」、「使人成義」和「賜予永生光榮」,指天主在「時間中」執行自己旨意的行為。天主這靈活生動的愛有一個目的,就是要他的義子「頌揚他恩寵的光榮」。「為頌揚他恩寵的光榮」一句,出現了第一次,它將再出現於讚美詩中,仿如一個叠句(6,12,14)。 ❖天主「預定了我們」,這話有什麼意思?這並不是定命論!因為時間的每一刻都真真實實地呈現在天主面前。所以祂「預定」自己的永遠計劃時,也包括每人對祂恩寵的自由回應。正如宗4:27-28所指出的,「實在,黑落德和般雀比拉多,與異民和以色列人聚集在這座城內,反對祢的聖僕人耶穌,反對祢的受傅者,實行了祢的手和計劃所預定要成就的事。」天主允許了人的盲目行為,以完成祂救恩的計劃。(教理600) ❖天主並沒有預定任何人下地獄。罪人下地獄是因為他故意離棄天主,在大罪中至死不悔改。在感恩祭和信友每日的祈禱中,教會懇求天主的仁慈,祂並不願意「任何人喪亡,只願眾人回心轉意」(伯後3:9):「主,所以我們懇求祢,惠然收納,祢的僕人和祢全家所奉獻的這項禮品,使我們一生平安度日,脫免永罰,並得列入祢簡選的人群中。」(教理1037) ❖「這恩寵是他在自己的愛子內賜與我們的。我們就是全憑天主豐厚的恩寵,在他的愛子內,藉他愛子的血,獲得了救贖,罪過的赦免」(6-7)──仁慈的大父所以用這豐厚的恩寵優待世人,純是為了他「愛子」的緣故;「愛子」(hvgaphme,noj - egapēmenos)一名是天父用來稱呼耶穌的(瑪3:17; 17:5)。雖然我們因原祖的罪都成了罪人,但天主「在愛子內」救贖了我們。這救贖首先在於「罪過的赦免」,這是最基本的恩賜,只有當天主赦免我們的過犯,我們才能與天主和好如初(羅5:1),成為他的子女。 ❖「天主豐厚地把這恩寵,傾注在我們身上,賜與我們各種智慧和明達」(8)──保祿提到「罪過的赦」後,更指出天主賜給了我們「各種智慧和明達」。藉着「智慧」(sofi,a - sophia),做義子的能夠領會天父的心意;而藉着「明達」(fro,nhsij - phronēsis),就能夠知道用什麼方法,做什麼事去悅樂天父的心。 ❖金口聖若望(St. John Chrysostom 354-407)講論這首讚美詩說:「你還欠缺什麼?你已成了不死不滅的,成了自由的,成了天主的子女,成了義人,成了兄弟,成了同為繼承人,與基督一起為王,與他一起受到光榮。一切都賜給了我們,正如經上說的:『豈不也把一切與他一同賜給我們嗎?』(羅8:32)⋯⋯天主『按照自己旨意的決定』(弗1:5)所指為何?意思是說;天主切願和渴望我們得救。他為何這樣愛我們?他為了什麼原故如此愛我們?只因了仁慈:實在,這恩寵全是基於他的仁慈。⋯⋯為此,保祿肯定說一切都是『為頌揚他恩寵的光榮,這恩寵是他在自己的愛子內賜與我們的』(弗1:6)。實在,天主不但從罪惡之中解救了我們,他還使我們成為可愛的。⋯⋯他裝飾我們的靈魂,使它成為美麗的,令人喜愛和戀慕的。天主藉他愛子的血完成了這一切」(In Epistolam ad Ephesios, I, 1,2,3 ; PG 62:11-14)。 3)9-14天主在愛子內使我們知道他的「奧秘」 ❖「為使我們知道他旨意的奧秘,是全照他在愛子內所定的計劃」(9)──天父除了在愛子內「揀選」和「預定」了我們(4-5),還「使我們知道他旨意的奧秘」。依照保祿的思想,天主的「奧秘」(musth,rion - mystērion)就是他為了人類的救贖而「在愛子內所定的計劃」。這項從永遠就決定了的計劃,除非有天主的啟示,沒有一個人能夠想得到。 ❖「依照他的措施,當時期一滿,就使天上和地上的萬有,總歸於基督元首」(10)──天主的這項計劃待時期一滿,就在聖神的推動下,藉着基督,並在基督內實現(3:4; 6:19;哥1:25-27; 4:3等)。保祿用了這句話,說明兩件大事: 1)天主是在時間中實踐了他的奧秘。「依照他的措施,當時期一滿」一句,與迦4:4「但時期一滿,天主就派遣了自己的兒子來」頗為相似。弗1:10所說的「時期」(kairo,j - kairos)是指默西亞時代那一刻,迦4:4所指的「時期」(cro,noj - chronos)卻指這時間的進程。歷史是天主所推動的,是為叫降生的聖子光榮他的父(若17:1-2)。 2)天主這奧秘的內容,在於「使天上和地上的萬有,總歸於基督元首。」「總歸於基督元首」(avnakefalaiw,sasqai - anakephalaiōsasthai)這動詞有「再匯合」、「重新」和「合而為一」的含義,英文多譯作 ‟recapitulate”,意思是天主從永遠即預定了降生為人的聖子要作「萬有的元首」(1:22-23;哥2:10)。天主在永遠所決定的,如今在時間中藉着聖子的降生和救贖工程實現了。雖然宇宙中沒有一件事物不屬於基督權下,但是保祿在此特別着重天使和人類全屬他權下,所以他說「天上和地上的萬有」:「天上」是指「天使」,「地上」是指「人類」。 ❖「我們也是在基督內,才得作天主的產業,⋯⋯為使我們這些首先在默西亞內懷着希望的人,頌揚他的光榮」(11-12)──在基督內,不論是猶太人或外邦人,藉着信德都成了天父的承繼人──「產產」。在他聖子降生為人以前,人類分成兩大派別:即猶太人和外邦人。猶太人是「首先在默西亞內,懷着希望的人」(12),因為他們得了天主的啟示,知道救世主即將來臨,所以把希望都寄託在默西亞身上。只要他們以信德接受基督,他們就是頌揚天主的光榮(5-6)。 ❖「你們一聽到了真理的話,即你們得救的福音,便信從了,且在他內,受了恩許聖神的印證」(13)──猶太人和外邦人都「在基督內」,或藉着基督的教會,聽到了「真理的話」,即聽信了耶穌的福音而得救。「且受了恩許聖神的印證」,即謂聖神給基督徒蓋上了一個印,印上一個特別記號,說明他們是屬於基督的,為在基督內而活於天主(羅6:10)。 ❖「這聖神,就是我們得嗣業的保證,為使天主所置為嗣業的子民,蒙受完全的救贖,為頌揚他的光榮」(14)── 那擁有聖神的信友,在自己心中既有聖神作「保證」,那麼,對將來的「嗣業」也便有了「保證」,待天主所指定的期限一到,「天主所置為嗣業的子民」,亦即聖教會,便要蒙受完全的救贖,因而頌揚天主的光榮。 ***** ***** ***** ❖「聖洗、堅振和聖秩三件聖事,除了賦予聖事恩寵外,還賦予聖事的神印或『印號』,信友藉此分受基督的司祭職,並按照不同的身分與任務,成為教會的一分子。這令人肖似基督和教會的印號,由聖神所實現,是永不會磨滅的;這印號時常存留在信友內,成為他們領受恩寵的積極準備;它又是天主照顧的許諾和保証,且是欽崇天主和服務教會的召叫」(教理1121)。

In this NBN episode, host Hollay Ghadery speaks with Rachel Phan about her powerful memoir, Restaurant Kid: A Memoir of Family & Belonging (Douglas & McIntyre, 2025). A warm and poignant narrative about finding one's self amidst the grind of restaurant life, the cross-generational immigrant experience, and a daughter's attempts to connect with parents who have always been just out of reach. When she was three years old, Rachel Phan met her replacement. Instead of a new sibling, her mother and father's time and attention were suddenly devoted entirely to their new family restaurant. For her parents—whose own families fled China during Japanese occupation and then survived bombs and starvation during the war in Vietnam—it was a dream come true. For Phan, it was something quite different. Overnight, she became a restaurant kid, living on the periphery of her own family and trying her best to stay out of the way. As Phan grew up, the restaurant was the most stalwart and suffocating member of her family. For decades, it's been both their crowning achievement and the origin of so much of their pain and suffering: screaming matches complete with smashed dishes; bodies worn down by long hours and repetitive strain; and tenuous relationships where the family loved one another deeply without ever really knowing each other. In Restaurant Kid, Phan seeks to examine the way her life has been shaped by the rigid boxes placed around her. She had to be a “good daughter,” never asking questions, always being grateful. She had to be a “real Canadian,” watching hockey and speaking English so flawlessly that her tongue has since forgotten how to contort around Cantonese tones. As the only Chinese girl at school, she had to alternate between being the sidekick, geek, or Asian fetish, depending on whose gaze was on her. Now, three decades after their restaurant first opened, Phan's parents are cautiously talking about retirement. As an adult, Phan's “good daughter” role demands something new of her—and a chance to get to know her parents away from the restaurant. In Restaurant Kid, Phan deftly combines candour, wit and insight to craft a vibrant and important narrative on the strength and foibles of family, and how we come to understand ourselves. Rachel Phan is a Chinese Canadian author. A graduate of Toronto Metropolitan University's Master of Journalism program, she and her work have been featured on CBC, Huffpost, the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, the Toronto Star, the National Post, Chatelaine, and Maclean's. Her instant national bestselling book, Restaurant Kid: A Memoir of Family and Belonging (2025), was named one of CBC Books' Best Books of 2025 and longlisted for Canada Reads in 2026.

Sarah Jiang is our next guest on The Yay. I had the pleasure of seeing her perform as Augustias in The House of Bernarda Alba. Jake and I talk to this wonderful actress about her upbringing, her work in the bay and where she sees herself in the future. You can contact Sarah directly via Instagram: @thatsarahjiang If you had ever went to a Douglas Morrison Production, you would have seen amazingly built sets, created by the resident set designer, Tom Earlywine. Most of the staff was let go immediately after COVID, but all of us remember the excellent work of Tom. I'm sad to report that Tom passed away June 16, after a heart attack – he leaves behind his wife and two children. They have a Go Fund Me page to help them with funeral bills and other financial demands – if you ever cared for the great work of Tom Earlywine, I invite you to give – whatever you have. The link to the page is here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/supporting-jenny-peter-and-sally-after-toms-passing?utm_id=97758_v0_s00_e227_tv2_tp1_a1dennhbg3mj0m On the Yay, we often talk about mental and spiritual health, especially for us actors, because our emotions are our currency. My good friend Cary Ann Rosko (Episodes 77 and 296) is not only a great actress, but is a psychotherapist and she's opening up her business to the online community. She's offering virtual psychotherapy services to individual adults in California. Check out her website, https://www.caryannroskomft.com/what-i-offer, and take the first step in taking care of your personal health. Sometimes we need a hand to hold in healing, and Cary has her hand out, waiting to help you. Kehinde Koyejo (Episodes 214 and 262) has been a friend of mine since 2005, when I stage managed her for the Ray of Light musical, Bat Boy. She's an amazing actress, model and creative artist. She's also an incredible entrepreneur – and I want to introduce you to her business, Kalm Korner. Kalm Korner is an online boutique that specializes in aromatherapy gifts – love rubs, moisturizers, sprays, tea blends and candles.

SEASON 2 - EPISODE 196 Drew Kunin - Production Sound Mixer In this episode of the Team Deakins Podcast, we speak with production sound mixer Drew Kunin (DISCLOSURE DAY; HER; CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON). Throughout the episode, Drew helps us understand how a production sound mixer might do his or her job in a number of different circumstances, drawing on experiences ranging from building a recording booth on wheels for HER to mixing CROUCHING TIGER phonetically using a pinyin script. Drew also describes the type of equipment he might use in certain situations, and he reflects on the changes in technology and in technique he's witnessed since he started his career. He later shares his approach to mixing tracks on set, and we discuss how his mixes can influence what happens in post. Drew also recounts his experience of being one of two Americans on the crew of CROUCHING TIGER in China, and he gives us a quick demonstration on the difference between Mandarin and Cantonese. We worked with Drew on THE GOLDFINCH and THE SECRET GARDEN, and we had a great time catching up with him. - This episode is sponsored by Aputure

Hello voices from the bench community, John Wilson here and I wanted to share some news about the evolution of the Programill lineup. Most importantly, Ivoclar's new PrograMill 7. What stands out right away is the reduced air consumption this mill requires, but what you'll notice first is that impressive new touchscreen. For us, the biggest advantage has been increased spindle power. My laboratory's known for these larger cases with complex geometries, and I can tell you that extra power really makes a difference. Next time you see your Ivoclar representative, be sure to ask about the PrograMill 7 and tell them John Wilson sent you. Thank you. At exocad Insights in beautiful Mallorca, we finally caught up with Felix from Imagine USA—and the timing couldn't have been better. As an exocad dealer on the front lines of digital dentistry, Felix shared his excitement about the strong turnout, the familiar faces, and most importantly, the innovation coming from exocad. What stood out most? The new exocad Hub and its cloud-based capabilities, along with powerful AI-driven tools inside DentalDB designed for efficient batch processing. For Felix and the Imagine team, it's not just about seeing what's new—it's about putting it to the test. By running new features through their own production facility first, they ensure real-world performance before bringing solutions to their customers. Beyond the technology, Felix emphasized the value of being there in person—connecting face-to-face with partners, having meaningful conversations, and stepping back to see where the industry is headed. And of course, doing it all in Mallorca doesn't hurt either. "LIVE" again at the 2026 DLAT meeting, two very different conversations came together around one common theme: the future of dental technology is still being shaped by passionate people willing to learn, teach, and adapt. First, the podcast catches up with returning guest Tiffany Prater from Destination Orthodontic Lab, who shares how her lab journey has evolved from running a large commercial space with employees to building a smaller, more personal business focused on private practices and hands-on craftsmanship. Alongside her is Sydney Ribera, a young technician discovering orthodontics through mentorship, creativity, and a fascination with bending wire and pouring colorful acrylic retainers. The conversation dives into the realities of learning ortho in today's digital world, the importance of organizations like the Orthodontic Resource Group, and why mentorship still matters more than ever in a profession where most of the training happens shoulder-to-shoulder. Then the crew sits down with Marlin Gohn from Argen to talk about everything from next-generation zirconia to massive dental labs in China and the surprisingly common mistakes labs make when choosing disc sizes for milling. Marlin breaks down Argen's new gradient translucency zirconia, explains why nesting strategy matters more than most labs realize, and shares real-world troubleshooting tips that can save labs time, money, and remakes. The conversation also wanders through SLM frameworks, milled gold crowns, PFMs, translating lectures in China, and why some old-school techniques still outperform the newest trends. Special Guests: Marlin Gohn CDT, Sydney Ribera, and Tiffany Prater CDT.

Maddie Ballard (she/her) is a writer of mixed Chinese heritage from Aotearoa New Zealand. Her debut essay collection was published as Bound: A Memoir of Making and Remaking (The Emma Press, 2024) in the UK and Patchwork: A Sewist's Diary (Tin House, 2025) in the US. She co-edits Starling, a literary journal for emerging New Zealand writers, and writes a sporadic Substack. She currently lives in Melbourne. In Patchwork, a charming and evocative sewist's diary, Maddie Ballard explores the making (and sometimes remaking) of seventeen specific garments over a period of great change in her life—from a jacket lined with the embroidered Cantonese names of her female ancestors, to a dressing gown made as a gift for a dear friend, to an eco-friendly, zero-waste dress. As the wardrobe grows, so too does Maddie. From her first off-kilter dresses and coats to perfectly fitting pants, readers follow along as she learns to navigate the world around her and how she sees herself in it—both as she is and as she hopes to be. Stitch by stitch, word by word, Maddie drafts her own patterns for ways of living. Throughout the diary, delightful illustrations bring Maddie's creations to life on the page. With a focus on the practical comfort and pleasure provided by sewing in a time of personal renewal, Patchwork: A Sewist's Diary is a warmhearted celebration of the value of craft in the modern age.

Ahead of Mother's Day we're talking to Cassandra Lam of Mama Lam's about her own mama's Malaysian curry chicken that she ate almost weekly growing up. Her mom missed Malaysian flavors so much that she perfected her curry paste, plus a few others, and Mama Lam's was born. We talk with Cassandra about growing up with a Malaysian mom, Cantonese dad, and as a New Yorker, making the leap from marketing to a small food business, and her OG food pop-ups. And of course, we spend time talking about Mama Lam herself. She's not a regular Tiger Mom, she's a chill Tiger Mom. Plus Cassandra talks us through the other Mama Lam's products and gives us great tips on what to make with them. Not even sponsored at all. We just love this curry paste and can attest to how good this curry chicken is!!
