“Are prayers to Mary problematic?” This question opens a discussion on the significance of prayers like the Hail Holy Queen and the Act of Consecration to Mary, especially in light of concerns about scandal. Other topics include reconciling free will with God’s prophets, the Catholic view of salvation, and the nature of miracles in relation to scientific laws. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 01:02 – There are two prayers to Mary that we get calls about, and wanted you to talk through them here, and also see if Catholics should stop saying these prayers if they cause too much scandal. Hail Holy Queen and the Act of Consecration to Mary 12:42 – How do you reconcile free will with the prophets sent by God? 21:05 – I'm in RCIA. The Catholic view of salvation seems fragile. Why would missing a holy day of obligation cause me to go to hell? 29:49 – Do miracles need to break the laws of science or can they break only the laws we don’t understand to be considered miracles? 42:00 – Did Mary have children? 51:27 – How do I distinguish between venial and mortal sin to a protestant?

n this episode, we explore the profound spiritual lesson found in Joshua Chapter 3: "You have never been this way before." We discuss why God sometimes withholds clarity to prioritize our spiritual formation and how to navigate the tension between where you are and where God is taking you.In this episode, we cover:The Purpose of the Pause: Why God asks us to "camp" at the edge of our promise, not to delay us, but to ensure we have the strength and alignment to cross over.Presence Over Pressure: The critical difference between watching the obstacles (the River Jordan) and following the Authority (the Ark of the Covenant).Consecration as Preparation: Understanding that consecration isn't punishment; it is the act of clearing space in our hearts so we can perceive the new thing God is doing.Momentum vs. Obedience: Why cultural busyness is not a sign of spiritual faithfulness, and how to avoid the trap of "paralysis of analysis."The Danger of Familiarity: Learning to keep a reverent distance from the holy so we don't confuse God's plan with our own nostalgia or past experiences.Key Moments:The Paradox of "Now" and "Not Yet": Understanding that we are children of God now, even while our future is still becoming.Camping Before Crossing: Interpreting the three-day wait at the Jordan River as intentional positioning rather than wandering.Following the Ark: Instructions on why we must shift our focus from the impossible terrain to the presence of God.Consecrate Yourselves: The call to clean our spiritual vision because "tomorrow the Lord will do wonders."Crossing the Threshold: Moving from the waiting room into the "decision zone" where faith requires action.Website: http://LeondeJuda.orgInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/cljoficial/#Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/congregacionleondejuda

There's a tale as old as time itself: an athlete, a star, a musician—someone of sheer brilliance and raw talent—bursts onto the scene, destined for greatness. In this message, Pastor Eric Robertson shares through Sampson's story how grace doesn't always stop the fall. Sometimes it lets you feel the ground.They show all the signs. They excel. They taste success early. And then everything comes crashing down. Addiction. Entitlement. Laziness. Self-destruction. It's rarely one bad decision—it's years of unchecked compromise finally collecting its debt.This isn't new. It's been happening since ancient times. Samson is a biblical picture of wasted potential.After Joshua and the elders die, Israel breaks covenant with God and worships the idols of the surrounding nations. A pattern emerges: idolatry, oppression, crying out, and deliverance through a Judge.But something changes in Judges 13. Israel is no longer crying out. They've grown comfortable in oppression and compromise. A compromise is a tradeoff between the Kingdom of God and the corruption of the world—having every good thing from God, yet wanting the one thing you cannot have.Enter Samson.Samson is a Judge of Israel, a Nazirite by birth, set apart for a higher level of consecration. The more corrupted a culture becomes, the more set apart God's people must be.Samson's life begins with extraordinary grace. God chooses him before he does anything right or wrong. Yet almost immediately, Samson lives against his calling. He desires what he was told to resist, touches what he was commanded to avoid, and goes where he was called not to go.Instead of delivering Israel, Samson reacts. A riddle becomes a feud. A marriage becomes a battlefield. A conflict becomes a massacre. He wins battles, but Israel is never delivered. Each time he crosses a line, the Spirit of the Lord still rushes upon him.God empowers him again and again—but God being with you is not proof of approval, only mercy.At the climax, Samson doesn't realize the Lord has left him. The bill for compromise always comes due. A compromised life hardens the heart until we forget what God's presence even feels like.Samson isn't the hero—God is. His grace is meant to lead us to repentance. The grace meant to break Samson ultimately crushed him.God is the real hero. He never gives up on us. His grace blocks our paths of destruction. Samson played with fire, and it burned him—but God's promise remains: if we turn and cry out, He will restore us.

For too long, we've acted like "consecration" and "holiness" are terms reserved for the spiritual elite. We've lowered the bar of what it means to be a Christ-follower so much that we've forgotten what it looks like to be truly set apart. In this episode, we're diving into the "romantic" side of consecration—the idea that God doesn't want you to set yourself apart to earn His love, but as a response to the fact that you already have it. In this conversation, we're pulling back the curtain on: The Big Myth Of Consecration: Why the call to be holy isn't just for people with a title of ‘pastor', and why thinking that way is keeping you from your greatest purpose. The Danger of Your Own Playbook: Who sets the boundaries in your life? If you're the one deciding how far is "too far," you might be setting yourself up for the very attacks you're praying to avoid. Your Secret Identity: We reveal the massive biblical truth that you aren't just a "partaker"—you are a priest. We explore what it actually means to minister to God before you ever try to do anything for Him. Gift vs. Sacrifice: Why God isn't looking for your extravagant gifts, but for the one thing that actually costs you something. If you've felt like you're just going through the motions or that your spiritual lens has gotten "dirty," this episode is a call to come back to the altar. It's time to stop setting your own rules and start living in the power that only comes from a life set apart.
Luke 22:42 - Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done.
In this powerful message, we are invited into a season of consecration — a soul reset — where God realigns our vision, renews our hearts, and calls us into action. Through the story of Isaiah's encounter with God and Jesus' call to the harvest fields, this sermon challenges us to see God clearly, walk in obedience, and respond boldly to His call. God is not looking for perfection — He is looking for availability. When we see Him clearly, we see ourselves clearly. And when our hearts are purified, our purpose becomes undeniable. The harvest is ready. The call is now. Will you say, “Here am I. Send me.”
We trace Judah's fall under Ahaz—idolatry, closed temple, failed alliances—and the swift, grounded reform of Hezekiah, who reopens the doors, restores worship, and leads a nation back to covenant.

Welcome to your Weekly Word! In this powerful prophetic message, Dr. Candice Smithyman teaches on the month of Tevet (Tibet)—a month of goodness, holiness, purification, consecration, and righteousness. As we cross into the new Gregorian year, we step into a season of First Fruits, aligning ourselves with God through praying, fasting, and giving from Matthew 6.This is a year of dominion and multiplication—a time when God is releasing Kingdom strategies, scrolls of destiny, and supernatural revelation for your 2026 assignment. As we journey through the Torah portions (Parashat Shemot, Exodus 1–6), we see Moses' commissioning and understand how God is preparing us in the same way: through consecration, purification, and divine encounter.Isaiah 61 • Exodus 1–6 • Moses' Commissioning • 5786 RevelationAsk the Lord:“What do You want me to give that proves I believe in Your goodness and Your greatness?”God never instructs without blessing.

On Day 12 of the fast, Pastor Azizah Morrison encourages listeners to remain engaged and intentional as the journey deepens. Rooted in James 4:8, this teaching reminds believers that closeness with God is not accidental, but responds to deliberate pursuit. This session addresses the natural tension that can arise mid-fast and calls listeners to resist drifting by choosing nearness with purpose. The teaching concludes with a full, faith-filled prayer, inviting renewed intention, deeper awareness of God's presence, and continued alignment as the fast continues.
Consecration is the act of realigning our whole lives to God's will for His purposes. Throughout Scripture, we see that when God is about to move, He calls His people to pause, set themselves apart, and put Him back at the center.
Thank you for watching All Peoples Church live stream. Pastor Jeff shares a teaching called: 2026 - The Year of Consecration - Set Apart. Service from January 11, 2026. For more information, please visit our website, www.allpeopleschurch.us or find us on social media!
Consecration does not end with just purification and sanctification. God consecrates his people for purpose and mission so that we may be faithful vessels of his Spirit and power. Therefore, as God consecrates our lives and our church, we must be ready to live with boldness and urgency for His glory.
In this message from our Morning of Consecration, we introduce 40 Days of Simplicity — an invitation to quiet the noise, create space, and re-center our lives around Jesus. We talk about consecration, simplicity, fasting, and the subtle ways distraction shapes our faith more than we realize. Rather than adding more spiritual activity, this moment is about removing what distracts us from being present with God and with others. As a church, we're stepping into a season of intentional rhythms, Scripture reading, and reflection — not as a challenge to complete, but as a posture to adopt. Whether you're beginning the year with clarity or feeling overwhelmed by the pace of life, this message invites you to pause, listen, and return to what matters most. From Sunday 01.04.26
In this Day 8 teaching, Pastor Azizah Morrison explores spiritual hunger as a sign of alignment, not desperation. Rooted in Psalm 42:1, this session addresses how God uses desire to draw believers back into intimacy when hunger is honored rather than avoided. The episode includes a prophetic teaching, a focused time of prayer, an invitation to rededicate one's life to Christ, and an opportunity to sow a consecration seed in response to what God is awakening within the soul.
This Day 7 session is a focused time of prayer marking the close of the first week of consecration. Rooted in Romans 12:1, Pastor Azizah Morrison leads listeners in a powerful prophetic prayer of surrender, offering our lives, plans, and year fully to God as living sacrifices. This prayer invites deep yielding, alignment, and renewed devotion as we continue the journey of consecration.
Sermons By Antioch Community Church in Waltham, MA (Boston Area)
In this Day 6 teaching, Pastor Azizah Morrison leads listeners into a deeper understanding of nearness to God during consecration. Rooted in James 4:8, this lesson emphasizes that intimacy with God is not earned through perfection, but cultivated through posture and intention. The teaching invites believers to release distraction, restore hunger, and respond to God's invitation to draw near with confidence and faith. The message concludes with an extended prayer, creating space for intimacy, renewal, and deeper alignment with God.
2 Corinthians 7:8-10 New Living Translation 8 I am not sorry that I sent that severe letter to you, though I was sorry at first, for I know it was painful to you for a little while. 9 Now I am glad I sent it, not because it hurt you, but because the pain caused you to repent and change your ways. It was the kind of sorrow God wants his people to have, so you were not harmed by us in any way. 10 For the kind of sorrow God wants us to experience leads us away from sin and results in salvation. There's no regret for that kind of sorrow. But worldly sorrow, which lacks repentance, results in spiritual death.

The saints aren't waiting to be admired — they're actively trying to help us right now. In this episode, Dr. Greg sits down with Dr. Gerard McNicholas to unpack the psychology of devotion, what a living relationship with the saints can look like, and why the "messiness" that sometimes shows up during consecrations may actually be where God is doing His most personal work. Key Topics: Why Dr. Greg says most of us "block" the saints. How devotion becomes a real relationship instead of just a pious habit. When consecrations stir up drama—and why that can be a good sign. The psychology behind spiritual "trends" and jumping into devotions too fast. How scrupulosity and the "tyranny of the shoulds" hijack your prayer life. Why St. Joseph and Our Lady want to be part of your daily life. A simple four-step way to ride out anxiety and spiritual desolation. How friendship and Ignatian wisdom keep you from panicking in hard seasons. Why letting the saints "do their job" can change how you suffer.

Patrick discusses a surprising IRS update that allows churches to endorse political candidates without losing their tax-exempt status, unpacking its far-reaching implications for faith communities and political conversations alike. He fields listener questions on Communion posture, the distinction between private devotion and public worship, and confronts concerns on recent developments in the Catechism about religious liberty and the death penalty—never shying away from deep-rooted debates or blending in a spontaneous chat about REM. Sharp, energetic, and always candid, Patrick connects faith with the turbulence of today’s headlines. IRS says churches can endorse political candidates without losing tax-exempt status (01:44) Paul - How can we promote Communion on the Tongue? I asked pastor if we could get kneelers, but he said it is not time for Adoration during Holy Communion. (09:16) Steven (email) – Friend is telling me that it's irrational to trust the Church, and the Catechism can't even be trusted because it teaches heresies (21:09) Todd - Why not talk about politics and religion. I think this is good. I know you just want to promote ideas but why can't we take a stand? (34:55) Patrick in Trenton, NJ - I heard a priest's voice changing during the Consecration. (44:36) Jim - You are wrong about the death penalty. Pope Francis himself gave a reason. (48:28) Originally aired on 07/09/25
