While praying, Maddie de Aquino heard God speak to her heart as a young girl: "You are mine, and I am yours." Maddie thought she was being called to religious life. However, everything shifted when Maddie was 15 and her beloved mother passed away from a stroke. Consumed by anger, Maddie distanced herself from God. She could not have imagined how God would pursue her and transform her heart. Now, Maddie is a consecrated virgin. She has made a vow of perpetual virginity and offers her spiritual motherhood in service to the Church. In this Easter podcast, learn how to run to God, even amidst great sorrow. Maddie is a digital missionary and works under Monsignor Lucio Ruiz, Secretary of the Dicastery for Communications of the Holy See.

In Week 2 of our series Fight For Your Family, Pastor Mike Santiago dives deep into the power and purpose of a Consecrated Family. Drawing from Joshua's journey and the call to prepare for the promises of God, Pastor Mike lays out four areas where we must set apart our lives for His glory: ourselves, our stuff, our schedule, and our sin.Consecration is not just about moral living; it's about total surrender—preparing ourselves and our families for the wonders God wants to do through us. When we consecrate our hearts and our homes, we step into the fullness of God's promises with courage and clarity.It's time to fight for your family—not with worldly weapons, but with spiritual surrender.Join us for this powerful message that will transform your understanding of family, faith, and the legacy you are called to leave.

We come to this MOther's Day and I hope to share this message in a way which honors the ladies of our life but also challenge us to live out the faith our world desperately needs in a counter-cultural way.

There are many ways that God calls people to lives of holiness. Just as he calls lay people to holiness, he also calls individuals to consecrated life, including hermits, consecrated virgins, widows, and religious. In a very intentional, specific, and lifelong way, those in consecrated life commit themselves to the evangelical counsels of poverty, chastity, and obedience. Father Mike helps us see how all the different kinds of consecrated life are a great gift to the Church and the world. Despite the many ways the Lord calls his children to holiness, the goal of each human life remains the same – intimacy with Christ. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 914-924.

More on the city of idolaters... Including how to determine how at least half of the city was involved, and the process by which each was put to death in an expeditious way. Also, what does it mean to destroy everything in a city when some of those things are not supposed to be destroyed ever?! Namely, consecrated property, and more. Of course, there's a machloket.

“A man with leprosy came and knelt in front of Jesus, begging to be healed. “If you are willing, you can heal me and make me clean,” he said.” Mark 1:40
On the next Treasured Truth, Pastor Ford will help us understand that the law of the Old Testament was given to us to show that God had a standard that we couldn’t reach. So, it demonstrated our need for God’s grace, through the promise that He gave, which would be fulfilled in Jesus Christ.

This Sunday in our Missional Formation series, Pastor Sam Gibson spoke on the distinctive of Crucified and Consecrated, focusing on the discipline of fasting. Living a crucified and consecrated life allows believers to put to death their fleshly desires and makes space for Jesus to resurrect His desires in us. Building a lifestyle of fasting is one of the most effective and powerful practices that brings about this transformation in our lives. Yet, while many Christians know they should fast, they often don't understand why or how best to approach this discipline. More than just abstaining from eating, fasting is an intentional act of surrender that positions us to receive more of God.

This month of Tevet on the Hebrew calender is a month of purification and this corresponds with the Gregorian month of January which focuses on purification , consecration and a giving over of ourselves as an offering to the Lord!This is a month of praying, fasting and giving!Since our firstfruit offering to the Lord is a whole of our giving and not our tithe or 10% we must learn the principles necessary to set ourselves up for all the remainder months of giving!I know I share this scripture a lot but if you can rest on this you'll see great blessings in your life! This revelation can bring sustenance every day for every need!Deuteronomy 8:3 says, “And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live.”Jesus knew the power of living by every word of God!John 4:34 , “Jesus saith unto them, “My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.”The word “meat” is Greek word “broma” when broken down means to graze or feed like an animal that grazes or feeds in a pasture.If we live like we are in God's pasture daily and being a sheep that hears His voice we will respond to His instruction and graze off His sustenance . Since the Lord is my shepherd I shall not want. As you receive you can then give!Psalm 23:1-3 reads, “A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.”Jesus learned obedience from those things which he suffered . He was trained to obey God's voice and fulfilled His destiny and He became the author of our salvation as a result!This month is preparation for reigning in the fullness of God's sustenance for every decision we make for family, friends, city, state and nations!Start the year off right with a copy of Dr Candice new book “365 Prophetic Revelations from Hebrew Calender”- go to www.Candice Smithyman.com orhttps://amzn.to/4aQYoR0

Photographers have a magical ability to transport us to hidden worlds, giving us intimate access to facets of society that would otherwise go unnoticed. Above photograph © Marcela Taboada In today's podcast, we sit down with Mexican photographer Marcela Taboada, whose long-term documentary projects offer revealing glimpses into underrecognized communities, for Picturing World Cultures. Combining a passion for making pictures that let her “see backstage,” with a knack for “knocking doors” and the tenacity to win over resistant subjects, Marcela gained rare access to photograph the daily lives of Mexico's cloistered nuns. Follow her painstaking process and learn the secret to her acceptance as the nuns' photography godmother during our chat. We also discuss her series “Women of Clay,” documenting the enterprising women of a Mixtec village, who singlehandedly rebuilt their homes after an earthquake using Adobe bricks and a process taught by a Mexican architect. Along the way, Marcela shares insights about the challenges of pursuing a photography career as a single mother with young children and reveals the lessons she learned from seeing aspects of her own story reflected in the lives of her subjects. If you haven't already listened, check out all the episodes of our Picturing World Cultures podcast series here. Guest: Marcela Taboada Episode Timeline: 2:21: Marcela's process in making pictures that let her “see backstage.” 5:15: A childhood memory and her fascination with viewing the stars from an observatory built by her great uncle. 10:16: Marcela's introduction to cameras and the darkroom by photographing family trips. 13:24: University studies and a photo series inspired by her great aunt entering a Mexican nursing home. 18:13: Marcela's photo gear and juggling her early photo career while raising two children as a single mother. 22:52: Marcela's photo series Women of Clay, about a community of enterprising women who rebuilt their homes after an earthquake. 35:19: Episode Break 36:30: Marcela's project Consecrated, and some background on Catholic monasteries in Mexico. 43:46: The seven orders of Mexican cloistered nuns, Marcela's long process to gain access to photograph, and the miracle that finally convinced the nuns to let her in. 53:51: Marcela's role as photography godmother for the Conceptionist order, and her approach to photographing the lives of the nuns. 1:00:38: The decision to photograph in color with a lightweight Sony RX camera for quiet operation and a contemporary look. 1:02:31: The nuns' reaction to Marcela's pictures and the ways in which they've adapted to 21st century life. 1:08:09: Marcela Taboada answers our PWC Visual Questionnaire. Guest Bio: Marcela Taboada is a freelance photographer based in Oaxaca, Mexico since 1986. After initial studies in graphic design, she became drawn to photographing diverse communities for long-term stories that let her see backstage. Marcela has received both national and international accolades, including a Hasselblad Foundation scholarship, a National Geographic All Roads Photography Award, and Mexico's most prestigious art grant, the National System of Art Creators Award, which she received twice. Her photographs have been featured in solo and group exhibitions within Mexico and the United States, Europe, and Asia. Marcela has taught photography at universities, in high schools and in specialized workshops.
