God used rituals to remind Israel that He had freed them, made them His people, and pointed them toward the coming redemption in Jesus Christ. In doing so, He shaped Israel's identity, passed down a reminder of God's faithfulness to future generations, and emphasized that salvation is experienced within a community of believers. Today, believers continue this through Sabbath, communion, and gathering together, trusting God's provision and remembering Christ's finished work.

Consecrated in 1824, as part of the major construction programme initiated by Governor Lachlan Macquarie, St James' Church is now the oldest existing church building in the City of Sydney. It has been the venue for many historic events including the enthronement of the first, and only, Bishop of Australia, William Grant Broughton (for whom the church became his cathedral). Through history, St James has been a place of ministry to a diversity of people ranging from the Governor, military personnel and convicts at its beginnings to the great array of people who work and live in the city today and those who come from the wider metropolitan area for Sunday worship.

Pope Leo XIV stood inside the Sagrada Família in Barcelona on the 100th anniversary of Antoni Gaudí's death and blessed the Tower of Jesus Christ — making it the tallest Catholic church in the world at 566 feet. A church that took 144 years to build and was born from the vision of a man who died in 1926 looking like a beggar on the street after being hit by a tram on his way to daily Mass. The next day, the Pope traveled to the Canary Islands and stood at the port known as the Dock of Shame — where thousands of migrants from West Africa have died trying to cross the Atlantic. He threw a bouquet of flowers into the sea in silence for the dead and said what every human heart already knows: human dignity has no passport.On June 11th, 250 bishops of the United States knelt in Orlando and formally consecrated this nation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The relics of Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque, the French nun to whom Jesus first revealed devotion to his Sacred Heart, were flown from Paris specifically to be in that room. Corpus Christi Sunday sent Catholics into the streets around the world carrying Jesus through neighborhoods, past flower-draped balconies, continuing a tradition that is now 800 years old.And June 13th was the feast of Saint Anthony of Padua; the patron of lost things, yes, but more importantly, the patron of lost souls. He has been finding them for 800 years. He is not done. If you know someone who has walked away from the faith, pray to Saint Anthony for them today.

We open every episode with the St. Michael prayer. You know the words by heart. But do you actually know who you are talking to?James chats with Fr. Frederick Schmidt, a Norbertine priest and sacristan at St. Michael's Abbey in Southern California, to go deep on one of the most powerful and misunderstood figures in all of Scripture and Church history. Fr. Frederick and his fellow Norbertine Fr. Peregrine just released a children's book, "St. Michael the Archangel Through the Ages," and what comes out of this conversation is anything but child's play.You will hear about the bishop who delayed consecrating a shrine St. Michael told him to build...so St. Michael just did it himself, left an altar, lit candles, and pressed his footprint into the stone. You will hear about another bishop who ignored St. Michael twice, so the archangel reached down and poked a hole in his skull...a hole still visible to this day. You will hear about the nine choirs of angels, what each one actually does, and where St. Michael fits in the hierarchy. You will hear the real story behind Pope Leo XIII's vision — Satan asking God for a hundred years to destroy the Church, God saying yes — and how the St. Michael prayer was born from that moment. And you will hear about seven ancient shrines built at different times across different centuries that form a perfectly straight line from Ireland to the Holy Land.
The Readings for Today's Homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/reading...Father Mark Baron, MIC, reflects on John 17:11b-19, where Jesus prays that His disciples may be consecrated in truth. To be consecrated means to be made holy — set apart for God's will. Through Baptism, Christ gives us a supernatural life and calls us to respond with our own “yes” to the Father, living in love, truth, and surrender to the Word of God. ★ Support this podcast ★
We see the holiness of Christ not only in His separation from sin but also in His loving devotion to His Father and His people. Today, Sinclair Ferguson marvels that we are consecrated to enjoy the perfect love of the triune God.

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.

What does it really mean to live a "consecrated life"?It's a phrase used constantly in sermons, books, and Christian teaching—often described as total surrender, deeper holiness, or a higher level of spiritual living. But is that what the Bible actually means?

“We all have a function in the body of Christ and it should be a big deal to us.”—Dr. Chris Cody
The Consecrated Life - Part 12 April 8th 2026 - Wednesday Evening
"the will of God has to be prayed into existence." God's will is written in heaven; we must prophesy it on earth and shape our lives accordingly. The message urges writing a script for your life and children through faith, prayer, and dedication, trusting God over fear and focusing on scripture rather than detailed forecasts.
