35 Let your loins be girt, and lamps burning in your hands.Sint lumbi vestri praecincti, et lucernae ardentes in manibus vestris, 36 And you yourselves like to men who wait for their lord, when he shall return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open to him immediately.et vos similes hominibus exspectantibus dominum suum quando revertatur a nuptiis : ut, cum venerit et pulsaverit, confestim aperiant ei. 37 Blessed are those servants, whom the Lord when he cometh, shall find watching. Amen I say to you, that he will gird himself, and make them sit down to meat, and passing will minister unto them.Beati servi illi quos, cum venerit dominus, invenerit vigilantes : amen dico vobis, quod praecinget se, et faciet illos discumbere, et transiens ministrabit illis. 38 And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants.Et si venerit in secunda vigilia, et si in tertia vigilia venerit, et ita invenerit, beati sunt servi illi. 39 But this know ye, that if the householder did know at what hour the thief would come, he would surely watch, and would not suffer his house to be broken open.Hoc autem scitote, quoniam si sciret paterfamilias, qua hora fur veniret, vigilaret utique, et non sineret perfodi domum suam. 40 Be you then also ready: for at what hour you think not, the Son of man will come.Et vos estote parati : quia qua hora non putatis, Filius hominis veniet.The holy priest Andrew was first a member of the ecclesiastical court of Naples. He entered the Congregation of Clerks Regular , calle the Theatine Order. He died at the foot of the altar, while saying: "Introibo ad altare Dei." A.D. 1608.

In this episode, Jamaal Williams with Sojourn Church in Louisville outlines the joys and challenges that come with pastoring a multi-ethnic congregation.

What does healthy, joyful, word-shaped congregational singing look like in a culture obsessed with self-expression?We are shaped more than we realise by the culture around us. And today one of the most powerful cultural forces pressing on our churches is expressive individualism — the idea that the authentic self must be expressed and affirmed.But what happens when this cultural air we breathe seeps into our church music? When sincerity becomes more important than truth, when the band is excellent yet the congregation is silent, and when singing shifts from “we proclaim Christ together” to “I express what I feel”?If we do not address this, we risk disengaged congregations, weakened church identity and a missed opportunity for deep spiritual formation that comes as we sing God's word to one another.Alanna Glover — longtime church music leader, former member of Garage Hymnal, ten years with Emu Music, songwriter, trainer and theologian — has just completed significant research on expressive individualism and congregational singing in evangelical churches.

Matthew 7:13-27 Printable Outline:    11-2-25     Sermon audio:  11-2-25

Introduction: The Priority of Prayer and the Word Highlights the necessity of both prayer and engagement with Scripture for believers. Emphasizes that doctrine and theology are essential, but must lead to transformation, not remain theoretical.​ The Book of Romans: From Foundational Theology to Practical Living Overview of Romans: Chapters 1-3: Human depravity. Chapters 4-5: Justification by faith. Chapters 6-8: Grace, righteousness, and the work of Christ. Chapters 9-11: Continuing theological foundations. Romans 12: A shift from theology (“information”) to practical Christian living (“transformation”).​ The Challenge of the Information Society Illustrates how technology and mobile devices shape attention, habits, and even identity. Warns against being "discipled" by digital culture rather than by Christ, noting its impact on mental health and spiritual focus.​ Calls for intentional discipleship—making conscious decisions to prioritize spiritual growth.​ The Nature of Transformative Faith Positional righteousness (what God has done for us)—must result in practical righteousness (how we live daily). Reference to Philippians 2: “Work out your salvation”—live out what God has worked within.​ Transformation begins when believers allow the truths of Christ to reshape their attitudes and behaviors, not just gain knowledge.​ Practical Commands in Romans 12:9-21 Paul transitions from doctrine to rapid-fire practical exhortations: Sincere, non-hypocritical love. Abhorring evil, clinging to the good. Honoring others, showing kindness. Serving God with zeal and perseverance. Being joyful, patient, constant in prayer. Generosity and hospitality to those in need. Blessing persecutors, living peacefully. Humility, unity, overcoming evil with good (not retaliation or vengeance; let God be the judge).​ Each aspect is meant to be lived out in the believer's daily walk, reflecting true heart transformation. The Issue of Hypocrisy Addresses common criticism of “hypocrites” in the church; urges heart-change and consistency between belief and action. Cites biblical examples (David, Ezekiel) of prayers for a clean and renewed heart.​ Living Out the Gospel True transformation is evidenced as believers “work out” righteousness, practicing love, honor, kindness, prayer, generosity, and forgiveness. Congregation challenged to examine their own hearts, let go of mere religiosity, and embrace authentic spiritual growth. Communion and Concluding Application Communion performed as a practical and spiritual reminder of Christ's transformative work. Final encouragement to worship, gratitude, and living out transformation in everyday life.

Join Pastor Peter as he shares an insightful message on "The Cost of Community," emphasizing the importance of praying in this house season and addressing the groundwork the Lord does before the church experiences supernatural fruitfulness. Drawing on 1 Peter 2:9-10, Pastor Peter highlights that believers are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, and a holy nation called out of darkness into marvelous light. He clarifies that while the price of admission into Jesus's body has already been paid by His finished work on the cross, the cost of community is not the price of entry but the necessity of stewarding the precious gift we've been given as the body of Christ. True community moves beyond simply seeking fellowship to understanding its four biblical dimensions: Gathering, Congregation, Koinonia (participation/fellowship), and Eklesia (assembly), recognizing that common unity is found in the communion of the saints. The central point is that the church belongs to the Lord, not to any person, and that Jesus paid the cost for community, removing the wall of hostility by his death (Ephesians 2:15). Pastor Peter argues that the ultimate cost of community is Pentecost, asserting that nothing less than an outpouring of the Holy Spirit can wash away the sin that separates us and change our hearts to love one another. This Spirit-led bond is exemplified by the devotion of Ruth (Ruth 1:16), the formation of the early church (Acts 2:42-47), and the 1727 Moravian Pentecost, which transformed a divided group into a community of devotion.

We live in a world obsessed with applause, where even our best intentions can quietly turn into performances for the eyes of others. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar remind believers that the desire to be seen and celebrated is not a minor issue but a heart-level struggle rooted in idolatry. From the beginning, humanity has longed for affirmation apart from God, but Scripture teaches that proper approval comes only from Him. Until we become nothing in our own eyes, God cannot fully display His power through us. The temptation to seek the praise of men lurks in every heart, and even in ministry, it is easy to drift from pleasing God to performing for people.The guys reflect on how easily preaching can become a stage. When props replace Scripture or humor overshadows truth, the message risks becoming entertainment rather than exposition. While creativity, stories, and illustrations can be powerful tools, the heart behind them must be examined. If the goal is applause or attention, the focus has shifted from Christ to self. The battle against showmanship begins in prayer, as we ask God to cleanse our motives and align our hearts with His glory. A faithful preacher studies diligently, prepares with reverence, and views each sermon as an offering, a fragrant sacrifice before the Lord. The real question is whether God is pleased.Social media intensifies this struggle, conditioning us to equate value with likes, followers, and views. The guys urge believers to resist that mindset and to preach, teach, and evangelize, regardless of whether anyone sees it or not. Faithful ministry is rooted in love, love that does not seek its own recognition but points all glory back to God. Congregations also play a role; encouragement is a blessing when it magnifies Christ rather than elevates the preacher. Pride constantly waits to creep in, but humility keeps the heart centered on the truth that apart from God, we can do nothing. All wisdom, insight, and power belong to Him alone.The world, seen clearly in Hollywood, thrives on the praise of man, but followers of Jesus are called to live for a higher audience. Every believer must ask what their motive truly is. Freedom from approval-seeking flows from the cross, where God has already accepted us through Christ's sacrifice. In that security, we serve from devotion rather than desperation. A life of continual communion with the Lord, anchored in prayer and His Word, shifts our focus from applause to obedience. In the end, faithfulness is not measured by claps or comments but by love, humility, and a heart that seeks only the glory of God.Send us a textThanks for listening!

As Russia's invasion of Ukraine rages on, evangelical Christians are facing intensifying persecution. In this episode of the Closer to the Fire podcast, host Greg Musselman is joined by Rev. Mykhailo Brytsyn, Director of the Religious Freedom Initiative for Mission Eurasia and pastor at Grace Church of Evangelical Christians. Rev. Brytsyn, who also serves as secretary of the International Council in southeastern Ukraine, discusses recent Russian court rulings that have forcibly shut down at least five church buildings and placed three others under investigation. A sweeping court order issued in September 2024 now threatens the activities of approximately 2,500 evangelical congregations within Russia. Additionally, Rev. Brytsyn shares sobering insights into the dangerous realities facing believers residing within Russian-occupied regions of Ukraine, inviting us to stand in solidarity with our Christian brothers and sisters who continue to follow Jesus amid war and oppression.

1 And after these things the Lord appointed also other seventy-two: and he sent them two and two before his face into every city and place whither he himself was to come.Post haec autem designavit Dominus et alios septuaginta duos : et misit illos binos ante faciem suam in omnem civitatem et locum, quo erat ipse venturus. 2 And he said to them: The harvest indeed is great, but the labourers are few. Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he send labourers into his harvest.Et dicebat illis : Messis quidem multa, operarii autem pauci. Rogate ergo dominum messis ut mittat operarios in messem suam. 3 Go: Behold I send you as lambs among wolves.Ite : ecce ego mitto vos sicut agnos inter lupos. 4 Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes; and salute no man by the way.Nolite portare sacculum, neque peram, neque calceamenta, et neminem per viam salutaveritis. 5 Into whatsoever house you enter, first say: Peace be to this house.In quamcumque domum intraveritis, primum dicite : Pax huic domui : 6 And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon him; but if not, it shall return to you.et si ibi fuerit filius pacis, requiescet super illum pax vestra : sin autem, ad vos revertetur. 7 And in the same house, remain, eating and drinking such things as they have: for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Remove not from house to house.In eadem autem domo manete, edentes et bibentes quae apud illos sunt : dignus est enim operarius mercede sua. Nolite transire de domo in domum. 8 And into what city soever you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you.Et in quamcumque civitatem intraveritis, et susceperint vos, manducate quae apponuntur vobis : 9 And heal the sick that are therein, and say to them: The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.et curate infirmos, qui in illa sunt, et dicite illis : Appropinquavit in vos regnum DeiThis holy Priest of Luna in Tuscany founded the Congregation of Regular Clergy called "of the Mother of God", and the Institutes. He died at Rome on October 9 A.D. 1609. St John Leondardi was beatified by Pope Pius XI. Pius XII extended his feast to the whole Catholic world A.D. 1940.

Maria Morera Johnson interviews Father Pinto Paul, C.S.C., the International Director of Holy Cross Family Ministries, about the upcoming Global Rosary for Peace. On Sunday, September 7, Holy Cross Family Ministries, in partnership with the University of Notre Dame and the Congregation of Holy Cross, hosted the 75th Anniversary of Father Peyton's Rosary Rally on Bond Quad on the campus of Notre Dame. Families from all over the country gathered to pray together, commemorating this great event! Harnessing this momentum, Holy Cross Family Ministries and the Congregation of Holy Cross are launching a Global Rosary for Peace at 10:00 AM Eastern Time (4:00 PM Rome Time) on October 22, 2025, the Memorial of Saint John Paul II. Saint John Paul II was famously devoted to the Blessed Mother. In his apostolic letter "On the Most Holy Rosary," released in 2003, the Mysteries of the Light were revealed, and devotion to the Rosary was reawakened.  Father Pinto Paul, C.S.C., serves as the International Director of Holy Cross Family Ministries. In his role, Father Pinto will be representing Family Rosary leadership in the 16 countries outside of the United States that have active ministries serving the spiritual and prayer needs of families.   Links for this Episode:  Join the Global Rosary for Peace Read More About the Global Rosary for Peace

What if a university included among its common learning goals for its students, cultivating the practice of disciplined attention and becoming active participants in your holistic formation? That would mean, I suppose, that such a university would be interested and invested in not just what their graduates could do or produce, but also in who they become. Such an education would value the education of the heart alongside and integrated with the education of the mind. This would go a long way toward giving a fresh, persuasive response to the increasingly pressing questions of what is college really for and is it really worth it.These two learning goals – cultivating the practicing of disciplined attention and becoming active participants in your holistic formation – are in fact the stated goals of the newly launched first-year seminar at the University of Notre Dame. This is a course that every single Notre Dame student takes in their first semester of college, in a seminar setting comprised of 19 students, one instructor, and one peer leader. It is called the Moreau First-Year Seminar, named after the founder of the Congregation of Holy Cross, Blessed Basil Moreau. The seminar seeks to give students a common entry point for their collegiate education, an education that takes seriously the responsibility and privilege of pursuing a life well-lived.Joining me today to talk about this vision of education and the challenging project of creating a common yet substantive seminar for all undergraduate students is my friend and colleague, Professor Bill Mattison. Bill serves as the academic director of the Moreau Program, in addition to his role as Wilsey College Professor of moral theology and ethics.Follow-up Resources:Learn more about the Moreau First-Year Seminar at https://moreaufirstyear.nd.edu/ “In Search of a Full Life,” podcast episode via Church Life Today“Forming an Intentional College Culture, with Joe Wurtz,” podcast episode via Church Life Today“Becoming the Adult in the Room, with Sarah Pelrine,” podcast episode via Church Life Today“There is no such thing as winning at life, with Elizabeth Klein,” podcast episode via Church Life TodayChurch Life Today is a partnership between the McGrath Institute for Church Life at the University of Notre Dame and OSV Podcasts from Our Sunday Visitor.

In “An Orthodox Jewish Congregation Keeps on (Food) Truckin' in Birmingham,” Gravy producer Margaret Weinberg Norman documents the story of JJ's Sandwich Shop, a glatt kosher deli on wheels operated by the oldest Orthodox Jewish congregation in Birmingham, Alabama. In the Magic City, food trucks are familiar, but both kosher restaurants and authentic delis are rare. Knesseth Israel, founded in 1889, is filling both gaps while exploring a surprising new way to sustain its historic congregation. Like many small Southern synagogues, Knesseth Israel faced dwindling membership, financial pressures, and questions about its future. After selling their synagogue building and parting ways with their Rabbi, the congregation chose a bold new path: to open a business. Knesseth Israel's restaurant venture began with a vegetarian crepe enterprise called Holy Crepe, and through experimentation evolved into JJ's, which specializes today in homemade corned beef and pastrami. On our listening journey we meet Beth Scherer Smokey, a longtime member and volunteer who led the congregation through this transformation. We also meet chef Nathan Lichenstein. Raised in an Orthodox Hasidic family in New York, Nathan once ran a glatt kosher food truck in the city and cooked for thousands of pilgrims annually in Ukraine. His move to Birmingham brought not only culinary expertise but also new energy to Knesseth Israel. His passion for good, kosher food has made JJ's both a crowd-pleaser and a point of pride. This episode places JJ's within the wider history of Birmingham's Jewish foodscape, once clustered along Fourth Avenue, overlapping with the heart of the historic Black commercial district and the old Jewish neighborhood. Community historian Barbara Bonfield recalls memories of borscht, kosher butchers, and the neighborhood life that sustained Jewish Birmingham in the early to mid-20th century. This story also speaks to larger trends. In 2022, a Pew Study projected that by 2070, “nones” (those unaffiliated with organized religion) would outnumber Christians, who made up 64% of the national population at the time. Against this backdrop, Knesseth Israel's story offers lessons for other small faith communities seeking to adapt their models to demographic realities. JJ's isn't just a source of revenue; it's also a form of outreach, connecting across Birmingham's Jewish and broader communities alike. Though they've reduced their footprint, JJ's has helped Knesseth Israel gain visibility both within and beyond the Birmingham Jewish community. This is a story at the intersection of tradition and innovation, faith and food—one that shows how a small but mighty congregation found its future not by clinging to the past, but by rolling it out on a food truck.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Deep in rural Kansas, hidden within a near-ghost town, stands a building frozen in time — a haunted church built in 1904. With its towering spires reaching toward the heavens and a presence that dominates the empty prairie, it looks like something out of a Gothic novel. But behind its weathered brick walls lies more than just history. It holds stories… and spirits. For more than a century, this sacred space has witnessed life's most defining moments: baptisms, weddings, and tearful funerals. The prayers, laughter, and grief of generations seem to cling to the air, embedding themselves into the very wood of the pews. Though the congregation has long since vanished, many believe the faithful few never truly left. Now, paranormal investigator Robert Garcia and his team have taken on the challenge of restoring this abandoned landmark. Their mission isn't only about saving a piece of Kansas history — it's about resurrecting a church where the dead still gather. While repairing the structure, they've encountered chilling activity: whispers echoing down the aisles, phantom footsteps crossing the altar, and shadowy figures slipping between pews as though Sunday service never ended. Is this activity a residual haunting, the lingering echoes of decades past? Or are these intelligent spirits, former parishioners still tied to the house of worship they once called home? The answers lie within the walls of this forgotten church, where faith and fear intertwine. This is Part Two of our conversation. #HauntedChurch #KansasHauntings #RealGhostStories #HauntedPlaces #Ghosts #ParanormalActivity #AbandonedChurch #HauntedKansas #ParanormalPodcast #TrueHaunting #GhostStory #HauntedHistory Love real ghost stories?
