Today’s Bible Verse:“If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even their own life—such a person cannot be my disciple." - Luke 14:26 At first glance, Luke 14:26 can feel shocking and even confusing. Why would Jesus use such strong language about family and even our own lives? In this passage, Jesus is teaching that following Him requires absolute devotion—a love for Him so great that every other loyalty pales in comparison. “Want to listen without ads?

THE LEGACY OF THE AMATEUR SPIES Colleague Charles Spicer. Graham Christie and Philip Conwell-Evanscompiled a rare book titled None So Blind, printing only 100 copies to document their warnings to the Britishgovernment about the Nazi threat. Their efforts went largely unrecognized until historian Martin Gilbert began to correct the record, moving beyond the simplistic "Guilty Men" narrative to acknowledge that appeasement was a widely supported strategy at the time. The protagonists met modest ends: Ernest Tennant's memoir was overlooked, Conwell-Evans lived quietly in Notting Hill, and the heroic Christie died by suicide in his nineties, leaving behind only a small plaque in St. Paul's Cathedral. The Travelers Club remains one of the few places where their story—and the history of these attempts to civilize the Nazis—is remembered. NUMBER 16 1945-46 GORING AT NUREMBERG

"Mary kept all these things, reflecting on them in her heart." May the example of the Mother of God inspire us to pause and ponder how our faith directs our lives as we embark on a New Year. (Lectionary #18) December 31, 2025 - Cathedral of Christ the King - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com  

Genesis 1:3–5, 14–19 ESV “And God said, ‘Let there be light,' and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. God called the light ‘day,' and the darkness he called ‘night.'… And God said, ‘Let there be lights in the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark seasons, days, and years.'” In this episode of Daily Devotions, Pastor David Sumrall reflects on God's design from the very beginning: light separates and governs darkness. Light represents God's presence and truth, shining into a world of sin and confusion. Even reflected light, like the moon, reminds us that truth always triumphs over darkness.

Designated drivers are fantasticMidnight gets the fireworks, the kiss, and the champagne pop—but what if bourbon claimed the next minute? We take a hard look at how bubbles became the default celebration drink and map out a practical, repeatable ritual that lets whiskey own 12:01. The idea is simple and social: a one‑ounce Midnight Pour, raised together, followed by a signature afterpour that's easy to build at any party. No lectures. No elitism. Just a clear, shared moment that anyone—new sipper or seasoned collector—can join.We unpack the psychology of celebration, from effervescence and spectacle to the way rituals anchor holidays. Champagne mastered the countdown with visuals and tradition; bourbon leaned into firesides and heritage. That brand posture works all winter but misses the energy at midnight. So we reframe the lane: champagne is for the kiss, bourbon is for the promise—new goals, new risks, new chapters. To make it real, we outline a simple serve (think one ounce bourbon, a touch of maple or honey, big cube, orange peel) and a social playbook that shows friends clinking rocks glasses at 12:01. Make it visible. Make it repeatable. Let the ritual spread.We also dive into a rare tasting: Old Louisville's Cathedral, a Bardstown-crafted blend finished in French oak from timber selected for the Notre Dame restoration. Expect assertive oak, leather, char, and a long, tobacco‑tilted finish with a remarkably balanced body. If you love aged profiles over sweetness, this pour sings and underscores why bourbon excels at meaning and momentum after the countdown.Join us as we sketch a new tradition that doesn't replace champagne, but completes the night. If the Midnight Pour speaks to you, share it with a friend, tag us with your 12:01 toast, and help us build a ritual worth keeping.

Malachi 4:5 ESV - “See, I will send you the prophet Elijah before that great and terrible day of the Lord comes. He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, or else I will come and strike the land with a curse.” In this episode of Daily Devotions, Pastor David Sumrall reflects on the final words of the Old Testament in restoring families. Just as John the Baptist came to prepare the way for the Messiah, God calls us to strengthen family bonds, heal broken relationships, and turn hearts back to one another. Strong, united families reflect God's plan and help protect communities from spiritual harm.

Zechariah 13:4–7 ESV “On that day every prophet will be ashamed of their prophetic vision. They will not put on a prophet's garment of hair in order to deceive; they will say, ‘I am not a prophet, I am a farmer; the land has been my livelihood since my youth.' And if someone asks, ‘What are these wounds on your body?' they will answer, ‘The wounds I was given at the house of my friends.' ‘Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, against the man who is close to me,' declares the Lord Almighty. ‘Strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.'” In this episode of Daily Devotions, Pastor David Sumrall reflects on the importance of protecting God's shepherds. When leaders are unfairly attacked or accused, the flock is scattered. Believers are called to discern carefully and not receive accusations without proper witnesses, guarding the unity and strength of the church.

Dr. Anders reaches into the Mailbag to answer listener questions including: How often do I have to forgive?, is it an oxymoron for Catholics to build expensive Cathedrals?, and why does the Church teaches that a person's present suffering can be redemptive when Christ died long ago? (Originally aired on 12/9/22)

Friends of the Rosary,Today, December 29, the fifth day of Christmas, the Church commemorates the Massacre of the Innocents by King Herod, the male children under two years old who were executed in Bethlehem as told in Matthew 2:16.Upon hearing of the birth of the King of the Jews, a threat to his murderous rule and the fulfillment of an Old Testament prophecy, Herod, King of Judea, ordered the execution of all the male children in Bethlehem.These children are considered martyrs, Saints of God, by the Church.The feast has been celebrated since before the end of the fifth century.And as we continue Christmas, we celebrate the birth of Christ and yet acknowledge the great suffering that surrounded His earthly life. The devil, his fallen angels, and minions (King Herod, Roman Emperor... and many of today's leaders) did (and continue doing) everything they could to try to destroy God's perfect plan of salvation.They stirred up hatred, jealousy, paranoia, and every other vile sin imaginable in an attempt to destroy our Lord's mission. Their attack began at the time of Jesus' birth and continued during his public ministry.In the end, Jesus' apparent defeat turned into His glorious triumph. So also with these innocent children. God has transformed their cruel and tragic deaths, and they will forever be honored in Heaven.Today, it's also the Optional Memorial of St. Thomas Becket (1118-1170), the Archbishop of Canterbury, who was murdered in his Cathedral by agents of King Henry II of England.Ave MariaCome, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Zechariah 10:1, 5 ESV “Ask rain from the Lord in the season of the spring rain, from the Lord who makes the storm clouds, and he will give them showers of rain, to everyone the vegetation in the field… They shall be like mighty men in battle, trampling the foe in the mud of the streets; they shall fight because the Lord is with them.” In this episode of Daily Devotions, Pastor David Sumrall teaches us a simple but often forgotten truth from the book of Zechariah. God gives the rain, but He tells His people to ask for it. God is with His people, but they still must step forward and fight. Faith is not passive. It is a partnership where we do what we can, trusting God to do what only He can do. This devotion reminds believers that God's promises are fulfilled as we respond with action, perseverance, and trust.

(Alternative Title: Don't Punch Your Neighbor In the Throat)10 Profound Questions of Faith | This episode is part of a limited series of The BETWEEN Podcast where we're exploring ten, big, heavy, difficult, profound faith questions. In this episode, we capture the essence of love when Rev. Dani Hillyer says, "Don't punch your neighbor in the throat" (or something like that). Love might be the point of it all, friends. If your faith life is pointing in a true direction... it's probably love. This episode features Rev. Dani Hillyer and Matt Mattson.

Today’s Bible Verse: “When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, ‘Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.’” — Luke 2:15 Luke 2:15 captures the moment when faith turns into movement. The shepherds didn’t debate, delay, or demand proof—they responded. After hearing heaven’s announcement, they chose to step toward what God had revealed. Want to listen without ads?

Close Friends’ Cathedral Adventure by Anne Ward Crocker Annewardcrocker.com https://www.amazon.com/Close-Friends-Cathedral-Adventure-Crocker/dp/1638298009 Peat, a toad, and Paul-Paulette, an earthworm, live in the woods beneath the roots of their friend, Christy, a Christmas fern. One day they are dug up and carried away. Christy is replanted in a pot large enough to hold Paul-Paulette, but Peat is too big to get in and cannot completely hide. He stays under Christy’s fronds, but can’t disappear. Together with their wild flower friends, they are taken to the Washington National Cathedral to participate in the annual Festival of Flowers. While the plants are being carried into the cathedral, Peat is discovered, picked up and left in the Garth – the small, enclosed garden near the base of the stairs. This is the story of the little toad’s adventure as he tries to find his plant and animal friends in the huge building. It is a tour of the cathedral and an introduction to cathedral architecture inside and out. A short glossary of architecture terms is included.

For part 7 of 12 on “What is the Nicene Creed?” we unpack these lines:For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;        he suffered death and was buriedOn the third day he rose again            in accordance with the Scriptures;One of the wild things about the Creed is we go right from Jesus' birth, via Mary, to his death, at the hands of Pontius Pilate. And yet, even wilder still, is that our God in Christ suffered death. The crucifixion – a death used by the Roman Empire to terrify and suppress enslaved people who rebelled – and the resurrection – are at the epicenter of Christian faith. What does it mean that Jesus died this way? What does it mean that on the third day, he rose? We are delighted and amazed to welcome to the podcast the inimitable Rev. Dr. Canon Kelly Brown Douglas, whose enormous work as priest, preacher, teacher, and writer, has long explored these questions.More about our guest: The Rev.

The pond had frozen over (which doesn't happen often), and people were walking and skating on it. One person asked if I was measuring the thickness of the ice. I handed my headphones round a group of kids, and it was fun to watch their reactions to the sci-fi noises…” Snow slowly melting from a bridge next to Ribblehead viaduct, North Yorkshire, UK in early January 2025 – by Charlotte Petts Listening to the river flow as the snow melts into the water from the fields nearby,  River Wenning, Bentham, North Yorkshire, UK in early January 2025 – by Charlotte Petts Tawny Owls voicing the starry dark, the foot of Dartmoor, UK at 5am on 3rd January 2025 – by Kirsteen McNish “I stood on the doorstep to look at the stars because of the ice bright visibility and heard them calling to each other.” Primal scream atop Bernal Hill, San Francisco, USA on 20th January 2025 at 9am – by Kristina Loring “A group of organizers had distributed flyers in our neighborhood for a timely cathartic moment atop the large mountain park that overlooks the city of San Francisco and the bay. It was organized to coincide with the swearing-in of the newest conservative American regime on Inauguration day. But one's rage can't be limited to whoever is in the presidential office. We scream for a litany of injustices—an endless list that cannot be exhausted here. Many rages filled my lungs that day and escaped my mouth in an inarticulate howl. Beneath the rage was a yearning for: Justice for Palestinians everywhere. Justice for trans folks everywhere. Justice for refugees everywhere.” Dead leaves on a silver birch, Stanton Moor, Derbyshire, UK on 5th February 2025 – by Rose de Larrabeiti “I took myself to Derbyshire for a few days in early February.

What truly satisfies us? Today we are looking into the book of Psalms. We can find in the Psalms the reality of our human fallenness, our human fickleness, our sinfulness, our need for redemption, and God's offer of love and forgiveness.The Psalms are like a mountain range–they are the heights. The Psalms are also a valley–they are the depths. In the Psalms you can be met in both places. The book of Psalms is waiting to meet you in the instability and the unfixed character of your own life.Of all the major themes of the Bible, here in the Psalms you can find the revelation of God and His goodness.John Donne, the great 17th century English preacher, poet and Dean of St. Paul's Cathedral, famously said that the Psalms are manna for the soul.For us to understand who we really are requires a knowledge of God and knowing who God is. This in turn sheds a spotlight on who we really are. Studying the Psalms gives this to us.Dr. Mark Gignilliat is professor of divinity at Beeson Divinity School, where he teaches courses in Old Testament and Hebrew. Mark also serves as theologian in residence at St. Peter's Anglican Church in Birmingham. Dr. Gignilliat is married to Naomi, and they have four children.

On August 9, 1945, a second atomic bomb detonated over the Japanese city of Nagasaki, roughly 1600 feet away from the original Urakami Cathedral. The blast killed dozens inside the cathedral, and over 70,000 in the city. The cathedral and its smaller bell were destroyed in the blast. The larger bell survived in the rubble. In 1959 the cathedral was rebuilt but one bell tower remained empty. In 2023, Dr. James Nolan, whose grandfather worked on the Manhattan Project, had a conversation with a Nagasaki local who mentioned wishing to hear the twin bells ring again. Dr. Nolan spearheaded a fundraising effort in the United States and raised $125,000 to reproduce the missing bell and have it reinstalled before the 80th anniversary of the bombing. Dr. Nolan joined the MacArthur Memorial Podcast to share more about Nagasaki, the bomb, and the incredible efforts to add this second bell to Urakami Cathedral.Have a comment about this episode?

Christmas is more than a celebration — it's a revelation. In this powerful message, Pastor Keith teaches how God holds greater secrets that He desires to reveal to you, your family, and future generations.

Being that we are on the heels of Christmas (2025), I interviewed Dr. David Borman III, artistic director of the Louisville Chorus. Dr. Borman recounts his childhood and what drew him into music; how music can enhance and deepen one's own life experiences and outcomes; the benefits (mental and physical) of singing in small or large ensembles, regardless of one's musical aptitude; and upcoming concerts being performed by the Louisville Chorus, including two Christmas concerts (12/19/25, 7 pm at Cathedral of the Assumption and 12/21/25, 3 pm at St. Brigid), plus concerts scheduled for the 2026 season.

Today’s Bible Verse: “Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord has said to her would be acomplished! - Luke 1:45 Luke 1:45 captures the quiet power of faith that trusts God’s promises before they are fulfilled. Spoken over Mary during the Christmas story, this verse reminds us that belief isn’t passive optimism—it’s active trust in a faithful God whose word never fails. Advent invites us into the same posture Mary embraced: surrendering our expectations and choosing faith, even when the outcome is still unseen.

In this eye-opening message, special guest Dr. Robi Sonderegger unpacks the biblical warning against “the way of Balaam,” revealing how resisting God's instruction can impact our purpose, relationships, and spiritual maturity. Drawing from Revelation 2, Numbers 22, and attachment theory, Dr. Robi shows how our emotional patterns, spiritual disobedience, and relational habits can either align us with blessing — or lead us down a destructive path.

Today’s Bible Verse“After this his wife Elizabeth became pregnant and for five months remained in seclusion. ‘The Lord has done this for me,’ she said. ‘In these days he has shown his favor and taken away my disgrace among the people.’” — Luke 1:24–25 (NIV) Advent is a season of waiting, and Elizabeth’s story embodies the kind of waiting that feels long, heavy, and sometimes painful. After years of unfulfilled longing, God quietly begins a miracle in her life. These verses capture both the tenderness of her private joy and the relief of knowing God sees what others do not.
