Pastoral Reflections Finding God In Ourselves by Msgr. Don Fischer
Gospel Luke 7:11-17 Jesus journeyed to a city called Nain, and his disciples and a large crowd accompanied him. As he drew near to the gate of the city, a man who had died was being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. A large crowd from the city was with her. When the Lord saw her, he was moved with pity for her and said to her, “Do not weep.” He stepped forward and touched the coffin; at this the bearers halted, and he said, “Young man, I tell you, arise!” The dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him to his mother. Fear seized them all, and they glorified God, exclaiming, “A great prophet has arisen in our midst,” and “God has visited his people.” This report about him spread through the whole of Judea and in all the surrounding region. Reflection This miracle happened at the beginning of Jesus ministry, and we know it was repeated toward the end of his ministry when he raised Lazarus from the dead. But in both cases, what Jesus is trying to make sure people understand is that his kingdom, that he is here to call into existence, is giving people the power over evil, over anything that would destroy us, harm us, keep us from the fullness of life. This is a beautiful example of the power that God is sharing with us. As the Holy Spirit enters us and empowers us. Closing Prayer Father, keep us always aware of the power that you share with us by dwelling with us. Give us a sense of the ability we have to overcome those things that we feel are obstacles to our growth, and we ask this in Jesus' name, Amen. Learn more about your ad choices.

Episode Summary The most dangerous issue facing a Project Management Office (PMO) is not sudden collapse but a gradual decline in relevance and impact. In this conversation, Mel Bost, author of Understanding Project Practices and Processes, shares his insights from Chapter Four of the book, which focuses on PMOs and project performance. He explains why PMOs often fail to deliver consistent value, even when they are not technically “broken.” He highlights overlooked factors, from alignment with organizational strategy to a lack of meaningful performance measures, that contribute to slow underperformance. The discussion underscores that without proactive adjustments, a PMO can continue to operate while its value to the business quietly diminishes.

“21:9. And when you shall hear of wars and seditions, be not terrified.These things must first come to pass: but the end is not yet presently.”“21:10. Then he said to them: Nation shall rise against nation, andkingdom against kingdom.21:11. And there shall be great earthquakes in divers places andpestilences and famines and terrors from heaven: and there shall begreat signs.21:12. But before all these things, they will lay their hands on youand persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and intoprisons, dragging you before kings and governors, for my name's sake.21:13. And it shall happen unto you for a testimony.21:14. Lay it up therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before howyou shall answer:21:15. For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all youradversaries shall not be able to resist and gainsay.21:16. And you shall be betrayed by your parents and brethren andkinsmen and friends: and some of you they will put to death.21:17. And you shall be hated by all men for my name's sake.”“21:18. But a hair of your head shall not perish.21:19. In your patience you shall possess your souls.”St Cornelius, the successor of St Fabian, Pope and Martyr, was one of the greatest Popes of the third century. He was beheaded A.D. 253.St Cyprian, a barrister, and later Bishop of Carthage and Primate of Africa, wrote works which are among the most precious documents of the Catholic Church. He suffered martyrdom A.D. 258.

This is the Cornelius who received St Peter into his household in Caesarea (Acts ch.10). He was then instructed in the Faith and baptised by St Peter, though he had been a pagan and a Gentile: a great turning point in the growth of the Church, for before this time many (including St Peter) had believed that the Church was meant only for the Jews. Tradition holds that St Cornelius later became a bishop and died a martyr.

Nous sommes au tout début des années 1650, à l'université de Louvain. C'est au cours de logique que l'on rencontre Cornelius van Wijckersloot, un étudiant originaire d'Utrecht. Il prend note de ce que lui dictent ses professeurs Arnoldus Mennekens et Nicolas Du Bois. Comme le font ses camarades, Cornelius complète son manuscrit par de nombreux dessins. Ainsi, représente-t-il une scène de carnaval où l'on peut voir un élève déguisé en fou, coiffé d'un étrange chapeau. Un fou qui danse en tenant un gobelet dans sa main droite. A ses côtés, figure un joueur de tambour. Quel rapport avec le cours de logique ? Nous allons bien voir, car, bien plus que de simples agréments, les illustrations qui accompagnent les notes de cours sont de véritables mines d'informations en tous genres. Ces notes de cours sont elles-mêmes bien plus que des outils d'apprentissage, elles ont une visée pédagogique et témoignent d'un environnement social, politique et religieux. Elles aident à comprendre et à retenir la matière, mais aussi à lutter contre l'ennui. Elles sont l'expression d'un caractère, d'une forme d'humour, d'une appartenance à une communauté. Retournons donc à l'école, mettons-nous dans la peau d'un étudiant au travail, prenons note et soyons créatifs. Avec nous : Gwendoline de Mûelenaere (UCLouvain), chargée de recherche FNRS. Coordinatrice de l'ouvrage « « Embellir le savoir – Les notes de cours des étudiants hier et aujourd'hui « ; PUL (Presses Universitaires de Louvain). Commissaire de l'exposition au Musée L.

As we look at Acts 10, Pastor Bill shows us how Peter learns that no one is beyond God's reach, and neither are the people in our lives.
After the offering (skip to 12:50), Pastor Brown preaches “Standing on the Shoulders of Giants” from Exodus 28:1–2,12. We are not self-made. God designs leaders and believers to carry names on our shoulders and on our hearts—with affection and responsibility.Key movements: Abraham's intercession for Lot, Israel blessed “for the fathers' sake,” Aaron bearing Israel's names, foundations with the apostles, our fellowship's promise, supporting tired leaders like Moses, honoring modern giants, rescuing giants like David, Paul's lonely burden, and God's memorials—Cornelius' prayers, fragrant giving, and Mordecai remembered.Call to action: become a “hiding place” (Isaiah 32:2). Put real names on your shoulders in prayer, service, and sacrificial giving. God remembers the carriers.Scriptures referenced: Exodus 28; Genesis 19; Deuteronomy 9; Revelation 21:14; Isaiah 58:12; Matthew 23:4; Galatians 6:2; Exodus 17; 2 Samuel 21; 2 Corinthians 11:28; 2 Timothy 4:16; Acts 10; Philippians 4:18–19; Matthew 25:35–40; Esther 2,6; Isaiah 32:2.Chapters12:50 Standing on Shoulders • Text: Exodus 28; Newton quote15:20 Giants and Intercession • Abraham rescues Lot18:40 Not Our Righteousness • Fathers and foundations22:10 Names on the Priest • Carried before the Lord25:30 Shoulders and Heart • Affection + responsibility28:45 The Weight Leaders Carry • COVID lesson31:30 Blessed to Bless • Carry across tribes34:50 Hold Up Moses' Hands • Supporting elders38:00 Honoring Giants Today • Campbell example40:30 When Giants Need Help • Abishai saves David42:40 Paul's Burden and Loneliness45:00 Memorial Before God • Cornelius, aroma of giving47:20 “Least of These” • Esther & Mordecai remembered50:00 Be a Hiding Place • Isaiah 32:252:30 Prayer for Weary Pastors • Altar responseShow NotesALL PROCEEDS GO TO WORLD EVANGELISMLocate a CFM Church near you: https://cfmmap.orgWe need five-star reviews!

In this powerful episode of The ToosDay Crue, hosts Jake and Stephen sit down with Dr. Avon Cornelius, a U.S. Army Veteran with more than 22 years of distinguished service and a proven track record of building and leading high-performance teams across the military, public relations, marketing, and logistics sectors. Dr. Cornelius brings a unique blend of real-world leadership, problem-solving expertise, and strategic communication, backed by his Doctorate in Business Administration. From coordinating complex military operations to navigating corporate innovation and branding, he's a leader who adapts, overcomes, and inspires at every level. This episode dives into: ✅ Lessons in leadership from the battlefield to the boardroom ✅ The mindset of elite problem solvers ✅ Strategies for effective team communication and client relations ✅ Transitioning military skills into civilian success ✅ Why relationships and results are the real currency of influence If you're a leader, veteran, or entrepreneur looking for insight and inspiration, this episode delivers.
Saul's radical transformation from persecutor to preacher (Acts 9) and Cornelius' Spirit-filled awakening (Acts 10) reveal that no one is beyond God's grace, that the Holy Spirit empowers ordinary people to boldly witness for Christ, and that God's kingdom welcomes all, regardless of background. These stories remind us that God is always at work, orchestrating redemption, and that we too come as unlikely converts made new through Jesus' sacrifice and the power of His Spirit.
Can you learn to love Christians who are NOT like you? That's the questin put to Ananias when God told him to go lay hands on Paul of Tarsus, so that Paul could regain his sight. That's the question put to Peter when he had that vision of a sheet filled with unclean animals. Will you enter the home of Cornelius (a Gentile AND the captain of the Italian reigment), break bread with him, and BAPTIZE him when you see that he is filled with the Holy Spirit? The call to the American church today is, in part, a call to love each other in such a way that the rest of the country asks, "How in the world can these people love each other like that?"
Season four is here! We are kicking off a fresh new year with a special guest host, Reverend Cornelius J. Williams. He unpacks a few chapters of his first and newly-released book, Will You Follow Me? We discuss his inspiration for the book as well as the necessity for the concept and practice of intellectual submission.

In this Reel Insights episode, Sean Tajipour, the Mayor of Nerdtropolis, chats with Owen Teague about his role as Brad in Griffin in Summer, the heartfelt coming-of-age comedy from writer/director Nicholas Colia.Owen opens up about why the film feels so different from anything he's done before, calling it “one of the funniest movies I've seen in a long time” while still carrying a “sweet soul” at its core. He shares how his character Brad — a misguided mentor figure — challenged him in new ways, and why he was grateful to Colia for giving him the chance to step outside his usual roles.The conversation explores Owen's acting inspirations, from Andy Serkis' groundbreaking King Kong performance to lessons he picked up from Matthew McConaughey and Marlon Brando while shaping Brad's presence. He also reflects on his double life as a teen actor, the influence of his Bloodline castmates, and what he carried forward from his physical performance as Cornelius in Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes.With behind-the-scenes stories, hilarious set memories, and candid insights into his acting journey, this interview is a must-watch for fans of Owen Teague, Griffin in Summer, and Planet of the Apes.Griffin in Summer is now playing in theaters.Visit Nerdtropolis.comFacebook.com/nerdtropolisInstagram.com/nerdtropolisTwitter.com/nerdtropolis

The Flat Fire, which is burning two miles northeast of Sisters in Central Oregon, has grown to more than 23,000 acres and is 13% contained, as of Friday morning. The fire broke out last week, grew rapidly and prompted Level 1, 2 and 3 evacuation orders in Deschutes and Jefferson counties. On Thursday, Level 3 orders were downgraded to Level 2 in both counties. According to an update posted Thursday morning, five homes have been destroyed by the fire, the cause of which is still under investigation. Jim Cornelius, editor-in-chief of The Nugget Newspaper in Sisters, says that while the community is no stranger to wildfires, efforts have expanded in recent years to make it more fire-wise and resilient to wildfires. The city is considering updates to its development code for new construction and in the spring, a local nonprofit, Citizens4Community, organized community forums to educate residents about fire insurance and wildfire preparedness, from assembling a go bag to requesting a free wildfire home assessment. Cornelius joins us for an update about the Flat Fire, its impact on Sisters and how the catastrophic Labor Day Fires of 2020 shaped the community’s fire-readiness.
we continue our faith-filled journey through Acts 15, delving deeper into the early church's struggle with circumcision and the inclusion of Gentiles. With a warm heart, we reflect on Saint Peter's powerful testimony, as he recalls God's grace poured out on Cornelius, a Gentile who received the Holy Spirit before baptism. This moving account challenges us to look beyond the Old Testament covenant to the living guidance of the Holy Spirit, whom Jesus promised to lead His church. We explore how the apostles, empowered by divine wisdom, embraced grace over legalism, reminding us that God's love remains unchanging. Join us for this soul-stirring discussion that invites you to pray and seek the Spirit's direction in your life.
Heather and Cornelius return with the final chapter of their marriage series, sharing the last set of lessons learned over 15 years together. In this closing installment, they dive into lessons 10 through 15... covering the deeper truths, the tougher moments, and the surprising joys that only come with time. They wrap up this journey with honesty, laughter, and plenty of real-life wisdom you can take into your own relationships. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
