Patrick opens with a compelling reflection on freedom, government power, and the meaning of self-government in America, weaving in a personal story from a Cuban immigrant and a quote from President Reagan. Throughout the conversation, Patrick takes on everything from questions about authentic Catholic voices in a world thick with AI and misinformation to concerns about Church leadership, historical contradictions, and the real risks of relying on opinions rather than fact. Audio: Ronald Reagan - Last Stand for a Refuge for Freedom https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxHyxP6qbBk (00:20) Michael (email) - Please stop vilifying Dr Fauci. (02:03) Adrianne - How do I authenticate Catholic YouTube channels? How I do I know if it is really Catholic. Also how do I know what is fake vs not fake? (07:16) Peter (7-years-old) - Why do people have to be 8-years-old to receive Communion? (17:39) Eric - I wanted to know why the Holy Roman Emperors were called Holy? (22:21) Maria Christina - I have been in the USA for 60 years after escaping Cuba. The USA is starting to look like Cuba when we left. (32:42) Alex - I'm a new mother. Is it acceptable to go into the Confessional with my new infant? (36:20) Bob - Sola scriptura: Why don’t we embrace once saved always saved? (36:46) Are You Guaranteed to Be Saved? If salvation can’t be lost (as some say), why does the Bible warn about it so often? By Patrick Madrid - https://patrickmadrid.substack.com/p/are-you-guaranteed-to-be-saved Janet - The results of a Covid shot. My friend had an infection and had to go through a number of specialists. Specialist blamed covid shot for her affliction. Was this ever in the Fauci Diaries? (46:22) Steve - I have been using AI to restore family photos. It’s been really good but you have to be careful because it will mess up the likeness. You need a human touch to monitor that. (47:34)

After almost a decade-long wait, the Grammy-nominated alt-country artist Tift Merritt returns with her new record Sugar, in which she sings, “I didn't really want to be here tonight / I don't need you looking at me / I don't like the light bright.” Is a romantic love story the inspiration behind these words? Or is it the music industry itself, which is, as Merritt puts it, the ultimate “bad boyfriend”. “This was a little song that was negotiating how I could come back and stay grounded in my own world that I've built off-stage,” she explains. And that world recently got a lot bigger. Merritt, alongside her partners, restored a historic boutique hotel in Raleigh, North Carolina, now called, The Gables. “I wanted to build a place where I wanted to hang out,” she says, as she expresses her hope that her neighborhood will feel the same way. For a songwriter who feeds on every day singing at the kitchen table and the strange but lovable characters of the South, a communal space may just become the breeding ground for new stories to tell through music.  Until those songs come to light, we have an entire album to keep us company, and Merritt's solo performance for this episode of Soundcheck is just the primer we needed.

Another packed Business Breakthrough Hotline, with four live callers and two anonymous Confessional questions, each one delivering a lesson that applies far beyond the person who asked it. Kelly coaches a Substack coach through launching a brand-new paid tier (and shares the three-part campaign every launch needs), helps a two-year real estate agent build a follow-up system that actually creates top-of-mind awareness, and talks a recovery coach out of the biggest trap new online founders fall into: trying to build the whole program before selling any of it. Then a working mom gets a real, been-there answer on building a business around a 40-hour job and shared custody, and the show closes with a sharp confessional breakdown on how to connect and convert from stage when you've been told you can't sell.

Back to the Bottom of the Barrel at Seattle Design FestivalSaturday, August 15 at 5:30pmSeattle Design Festival Mainstage at Lake Union Park, Seattle WACritiques are rarely competitive affairs, but that doesn't mean designers don't know what it's like to lose at one. What if you could take that work the world rejected, though, and flips its downfall into a victory? And what if you could also do it live on stage, in competition with another designer, to see whose worst-ever work really is the bottom of the barrel?Did I Do That?: Back to the Bottom of the Barrel gives the Seattle design community a chance to dig into their archives and share that shame with the world, defanging it with laughter in the process. A panel of Seattle's best graphic designers will talk through their most hilariously regrettable projects live on stage with host Sean Schumacher (“Did I Do That” podcast and Associate Professor of Graphic Design at Portland State University).Together, we'll reflect on what made that work the way it the way it is and how making it has helped them grow. Then, you'll help decide whose work is bad enough to win our trophy made out of a trash can.

In this episode of The Confessional, Roger Mitchell sits down with Charlie Methven for a sharp, candid conversation about leadership, football, and the hard lessons that come with both.  Charlie reflects on the personal cost of a life lived on the move, the tension between honest words and public perception at Sunderland, and why he believes the game is shaped as much by identity and feeling as by facts and numbers.  He also opens up about the responsibility that comes with transformation, the trade-offs behind ambition, and the value of saying difficult truths even when they're uncomfortable.

The Gospel is not just a command—it's an offer accompanied by God's genuine desire for sinners to be saved. But what does that really mean for how we preach and present Christ?In this episode, Caleb is joined by Sam Waldron (PhD, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary) president of Covenant Baptist Theological to discuss the common misconceptions about the free offer of the gospel, exploring its biblical foundation, historical debates, and practical implications. Discover how God's universal call to repentance aligns with the sovereignty of His election, and why understanding this distinction transforms both your preaching and your assurance of salvation.Resource:The Crux of the Free Offer: A Biblical, Confessional, and Theological Explanation and Defense of the Well-Meant Offer of the Gospel by Sam WaldronThe Gospel Worthy of All Acceptation, or the Duty of Sinners to Believe by Andrew FullerAndrew Fuller by John Piper

Part two of the recap opens with a quieter decision that says a lot: removing Our World Belongs to God from the Covenant for Office Bearers. As Willy explains, the real debate wasn't about the contemporary testimony's merits but about what an office bearer should be bound to — and Synod's answer was the ecumenical creeds and the Reformed confessions, nothing added. It's one more thread in a confessionalist turn that ran through the whole week, captured by a transformationalist on the floor who joked that the confessionalists are in the driver's seat, the pietists are riding shotgun, and the transformationalists are in the back seat — and said he was okay with that. From there Jason and Willy celebrate two structural decisions: keeping Sunday as a real Sabbath in the middle of Synod, and decisively rejecting biennial synods. Willy, who sits on the COD and voted against the biennial proposal, says the lopsided voice vote shows the task force is out of touch with the denomination. Jason makes the deeper case for meeting yearly — this year delegates actually changed their votes mid-debate, which is what real deliberation looks like and exactly what gets lost when a church only gathers every two years. The heart of the episode is the unanimously adopted ten-year church planting vision and the Saturday-night State of the Church address that set it up. Jason, no reliable fan of Zach King, offers a genuine correction: King earned his standing ovation, naming a pivot from a season of fighting into a season of building — an Antioch moment of discipleship, leadership development, and healthy church planting. The goal is concrete and audacious: 150 new churches in five years, about three per classis. Both hosts ground it in the pastor shortage and the hard work of legacy churches, but the encouragement is unmistakable. Double the candidates showed up this year. Young confessional men are coming. So stop waiting on the denomination, Jason says — do the work, grassroots.

Episode 4161 │ June 28, 2026 Raising your hand for heaven is not the same as being transformed. A black belt doesn't mean you've arrived — it means you're finally ready to begin. WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS  Scott Kesterson and Brad Cummings open with a shared frustration — that so much of modern Christianity has settled for the confessional declaration of faith as the endpoint rather than the beginning, producing a church full of people who have raised their hand for heaven but never experienced the actual transaction of the new creation — and build the case from Romans 8, John 1, and the book of Job that what God is after is not religious performance or disciplined obedience but sonship: the genuine indwelling of the Holy Spirit that produces transformation from the inside rather than behavior modification from the outside. The conversation moves through the difference between the old covenant and the new — man promising obedience versus God writing His law on the heart — the church's pornography and abuse crisis as evidence of what happens when leaders operate from a broken nature they are trying to discipline rather than a new nature that has been genuinely begotten from above, and the book of Job as the oldest book of the Bible and the first answer to why transformation requires fire, why the Hasatan is a God-appointed refiner rather than an equal adversary, and why Job's restoration came not from confessing a list of sins but from an honest encounter with the living God that moved him from I have heard of you to now I see you. The episode closes with Brad's distillation of the new covenant in a single sentence: if you get the loving correct, the keeping will follow. KEY QUESTIONS ADDRESSED  What is the operative difference between the old covenant and the new — and why does Brad argue that 99% of pastors are good Pharisees operating under the old covenant without realizing it? What does the book of Job reveal about the Hasatan as a God-appointed refiner rather than a supreme adversary — and why did God allow the requisition knowing Job would pass rather than punish Job for something he had done? Why does shotgunning a list of sins without the Holy Spirit's specific conviction produce condemnation rather than transformation — and what does genuine repentance actually look like when you stand before God in raw, naked honesty?

Is he predicting a future conversion of the Jewish people? And how does Romans 11 fit with the Bible's teaching that there is one people of God united by faith in Christ?Drawing from Reformed interpreters such as Calvin, Matthew Poole, John Gill, and historic confessional theology, this study explores the relationship between Israel, the nations, and God's redemptive plan in history.What did Paul actually mean by "all Israel"?Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >HereHere

In this episode of The Confessional, Roger Mitchell sits down with Ray Ranson for a frank conversation about the move from football to business, and the harder lessons that came with it.  Ray reflects on the ruthless side of life in deals, the pressure of keeping a game face, the painful lesson of backing a pioneering sports tech deal that had the vision but not the pricing power to match.  It's a conversation about ambition, regret, and the cost of getting things wrong before you finally learn how to get them right.

In part two of our conversation with Lora Copley, editor of The Banner, the question turns from where the Banner has been to where it could go. Lora doesn't dodge — she names specifics. A Banner podcast launching this year, fully funded through grassroots giving, hosted by Derek Buikema and Sarah Eekhoff Zylstra. A daily Synod 2026 recap modeled on the work of Abide Project. A growing donor base of "banner builders." Online space for articles ranging from 500 to 2,400 words, giving faithful Reformed voices a platform the print magazine can't yet hold. This isn't strategic spin. It's a vision of a publication actually serving the church it claims to speak with. Then Willy turns the conversation toward confessionalism, and the heart of Lora's vision becomes clear. She isn't manufacturing a confessional turn at the Banner — the pitches are already coming. A stay-at-home mom in Chicago on a "Now What?" series for young adults. A church planter in the Multiply 222 network who tells every new disciple after twenty-six weeks of catechism that the only place to go next is Berkhof's Systematic Theology — because the book is incredible. The Reformed confessions are not a museum piece. They're how Reformed churches make disciples, and the CRCNA is hungry for leaders who believe it. Lora heads into Synod 2026 to be interviewed and voted on as permanent editor. She admits she's nervous — her words tumble out like a clown car at the Ringling Brothers circus, she says — but she'll feel deeply dependent on the Lord and His Spirit, and that's a good place to be. We boast in our weakness so that Christ's strength may be known. The closing word is Jonathan Edwards: among all the counterfeits the enemy can imitate of the Spirit's fruit, the one thing he cannot counterfeit is the exalting of Christ. That's what Lora is praying for the Banner, the agencies, the denomination, and the Synod about to gather. Lifted, fixed, transformed eyes on Jesus. There is no other sign and wonder worth chasing.

Our "Summer in the Cities" tour kicks off in New York City, where skyscrapers, subway steam, and street corner speakers shape the soundtrack as much as any studio. From Brooklyn chipmunk soul to CBGB panic attacks, Don and Dude dive into two landmark records that lock NYC's grit, hustle, and humor into permanent groove.The AlbumsJay-Z – The Blueprint (2001)Recorded and released at the height of New York's early 2000s rap power struggles, The Blueprint finds Jay-Z sharpening his legend on a warm bed of soul samples and drum-tight beats, turning his Marcy Projects origin story and luxury-rap persona into a city-sized victory lap. Across confident battle raps, autobiographical flexes, and flashes of vulnerability, the record plays like a mission statement for modern East Coast hip hop and a blueprint for the soulful, producer-driven sound that would dominate the decade.Ramones – Ramones (1976)Captured quickly and cheaply in mid 70s Manhattan, the Ramones' debut blasts through 14 songs in under half an hour, stripping rock back to buzzsaw guitars, sprinting tempos, and chant-ready hooks that feel like CBGB's floorboards turned into sound. Its mix of cartoonish humor, dark street tales, and surf and girl-group influences turns grimy downtown New York into a noisy, funny, slightly dangerous blur that became ground zero for American punk.Diggin' AlbumsRyan Bingham & The Texas Gentlemen – They Call Us The Lucky Ones (2026)Loose, live-sounding Americana that leans on dusty bar-band grooves while Bingham reflects on struggle, endurance, and the strange kind of “luck” you earn the hard way.Wu-Tang Clan – Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) (1993)Gritty Staten Island mythology and grimy soul loops collide on a ferocious debut that reimagines New York street rap as a martial arts flick scored in a dusty basement.Nine Inch Noize – Nine Inch Noize (2026) A harsh, club-bent collision of Nine Inch Nails and Boys Noize, reworking NIN cuts into pounding electronic workouts that feel like an industrial rave eating itself alive.Olivia Rodrigo – You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love (2026) Confessional pop rock pushes into more anxious, experimental territory as Rodrigo unpacks messy, obsessive love through big hooks and jagged, emotionally frayed arrangements.Follow & SupportFollow the show on Instagram, Facebook, Threads, and Bluesky @albumnerds, and support the podcast by subscribing, rating, reviewing, and sharing it with another music obsessive who still loves hearing whole albums front to back.“Once you have lived in New York and it has become your home, no other place is good enough.” – John Steinbeck

Roger Mitchell sits down with Australian entrepreneur Ant Arena for a candid conversation about ambition, setbacks and what happens when a big idea hits the real world.

In this special on-location episode of Christ the Center, Camden Bucey visits Gießen, Germany, to explore a remarkable work of confessional Reformed renewal. Through conversations with Johann, Lukas Strauß, and Philip Paul, listeners are introduced to the Academy for Reformed Theology, a growing seminary that serves students across German-speaking Europe through a hybrid model of in-person intensives, online instruction, and close partnership with local churches. The episode also traces the recent formation of a new continental Reformed denomination in Germany, the challenges of church planting in a highly secular and heavily taxed society, and the need for pastors who can preach, plant, and patiently build confessional churches from the ground up by God's grace. What emerges is a deeply encouraging portrait of ordinary, faithful labor. The conversation highlights the need for indigenous theological leadership, German-language Reformed resources, and strong ecclesial communities where believers are not left to grow in isolation. Lucas reflects on discovering Reformed theology and using podcasting and social media to introduce it to German listeners, while Philip describes the theological journey that led his family to move for the sake of a confessional church home. Taken together, these conversations offer a vivid glimpse into the opportunities and difficulties of gospel ministry in Germany today—and a compelling call to pray for theological training, church planting, and lasting Reformed witness.

Survivor 50 B&B Ep 6 Recap w/ Sophie Segreti With a new Survivor season upon us, it's time for Mike Bloom and Liana Boraas to re-open the RHAP B&B! On the B&B, Mike and Liana are inspired by the lighter side of Survivor, featuring a series of segments and games based on what's happening on Survivor that week. This week, This week, Mike and Liana are joined by Sophie Segreti to discuss Survivor 50 episode 6. Mike Bloom and Liana Boraas team up with Survivor 49's Sophie Segreti for a lively, strategy-packed breakdown of Survivor 50's twist-heavy merge. This week's episode dives straight into the chaos of the “Blood Moon” twist, shifting the game's momentum as three players get booted in a multi-tribal shakeup. With fans and players alike questioning just how “crazy” this twist really is, the podcast explores who rises, who falls, and whose legacy gets a boost. The hosts and guest unpack the Survivor 50 merge, which promises fireworks as alliances and past beefs come roaring back. This episode sees players scrambling after being split into three groups, leaving little room for maneuvering at Tribal Council and setting up several predictable vote-outs. Confessional gold from Rizo, now dubbed “Rizgod,” “Riz Clown,” and even “Rizbop”, keeps the mood light, even as favorites like Kamilla and Genevieve find their games turned upside down by unlucky swaps and idol transfers. Cirie's sharp strategic talk and Colby's emotional exit scenes offer heartfelt moments, reminding everyone why these returning players matter. Applebee's returns for reward, but fans debate whether its presence marks a true franchise highlight. Sophie Segreti reflects on the lost chance for a full 17-person merge scramble Mike breaks down Genevieve's idol misfortunes and “Shot in the Dark” play Liana highlights Cirie's brilliant pitch and the nuances of split tribal strategy The podcast ranks the wildest Rizo nicknames from Survivor Facebook's casuals Kamilla's exit is parsed as emblematic of the dangers of playing hard as a returnee With Survivor 50's merge turning alliances inside out, listeners are left wondering: Will future Tribal Councils offer more chaos, or will predictable boots keep ruling the day? How can players adapt when twists limit their moves and old-school beef meets new-era strategy? This week's charity shoutout is Planned Parenthood, which delivers vital reproductive health care, sex education, and information to millions of people worldwide. Click here to make a donation.
