Podcasts about Cross

Read OnlineWhen the days were completed for their purification according to the law of Moses, Mary and Joseph took Jesus up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord, just as it is written in the law of the Lord, “Every male that opens the womb shall be consecrated to the Lord,” and to offer the sacrifice of “a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons,” in accordance with the dictate in the law of the Lord. Luke 2:22–24The Presentation of the Lord reveals two beautiful paradoxes: the purification of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the ritual redemption of Jesus, her firstborn Son. Both actions follow the Law of Moses, yet each unveils a deeper mystery about Christ and His Mother, offering us a mystery to enter and an example to follow.First, we ponder the Blessed Virgin Mary's purification. The Law stated that a woman who gave birth to a son needed ritual purification (cf. Leviticus 12). Yet Mary, being immaculately conceived and preserved entirely from all stain of sin, had no need for purification. Nevertheless, she fulfilled the Law, setting before us a model of perfect humility and obedience. Knowing her own interior purity, she could have objected, but she did not, because she valued obedience to God's law above her own justification. She teaches us that true holiness embraces humble submission over self-assertion. Humility, in its beauty and holiness, always conquers pride's selfishness and self-elevation. Our Blessed Mother knew and lived that.The second paradox is found in Jesus' presentation. The Law required every firstborn son to be presented to the Lord and redeemed in remembrance of the Passover (cf. Exodus 13; Numbers 3 and 18). Yet Jesus is the eternal Son of God, the true High Priest and Spotless Lamb who takes away the sins of the world. He needed no redemption, for He is God Himself. Still, Christ was presented in the Temple so that we might be presented with Him to the Father. In His humility, He united Himself to our human nature—without sin—so that we might be truly consecrated to God through Him. Again, virtue wins out, as Christ invites us to share in His humility.The Presentation also foreshadows the other ways Jesus would redeem us through His human life. In His Baptism, though sinless, He submits to a rite of repentance so we might be sanctified through baptism ourselves. In His Passion, though innocent, He suffers for us, paying our debt—a debt we must humbly admit that we cannot repay on our own. In His Resurrection, His humility is crowned with eternal glory, opening the way for us to share in His divine life—if we humble ourselves with Him.Like our Blessed Mother, we are called to submit obediently to God's will, rejecting the pride that tempts us to think we are above certain duties or sacrifices. True holiness embraces sacrifice freely out of love, rather than seeking exemption from it. Even undeserved hardships bear fruit when endured with Christ. True holiness also perceives the beauty of joyful obedience to God's will, rather than asserting our own.Like Jesus, we are called to offer ourselves completely to the Father. As Jesus was ritually offered in the Temple, we must see ourselves in that offering. He was offered for us. By uniting ourselves with Him in His humility, we are redeemed through His offering to the Father. We become children in the Son, received by the Father who accepted Christ's perfect offering. In Him, our offering becomes perfect, and we find our eternal home with the Father. Reflect today on the hidden ways God invites you to imitate these paradoxes. Are there areas where you resist humble obedience, preferring your own will over God's? Are there sacrifices you are tempted to avoid, forgetting that true love embraces the Cross? Offer yourself to the Father with Mary's obedience and Christ's perfect humility so that your life, like theirs, may become a pure offering of love. Most humble Lord, You were obedient to the Father's will in all things. From the mystery of Your Incarnation, to Your humble birth in a cave, Your ritual presentation and redemption in the Temple, and Your sacrificial Death and Resurrection, You acted with perfect holiness, humility, and obedience. Please draw me into Your life—into Your Presentation to the Father, Your Death, and Your Resurrection. Live within me, dear Lord, so that I may live in You, sharing in the glory You desire to bestow. Jesus, I trust in You.  Images via Adobe Stock - Main & FeaturedSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

The Evergetinos does not offer us inspiring stories. It offers us a blade. These elders do not behave reasonably. They do not protect their reputations. They do not appeal to due process. They do not defend themselves. They kneel. They ask forgiveness for crimes they did not commit. They accept punishment. They allow their names to be dragged through the dust. And this is exactly where modern religious people begin to choke. We admire Christ until His way threatens our dignity. We praise the Cross until it begins to cost us something that feels personal. We speak of humility until it asks us to surrender our right to be seen as innocent. Then the mind rises up. The lawyer wakes. Natural reason sharpens its pen. We start dissecting the text. Surely this is symbolic. Surely this is exaggerated. Surely there must be limits. But the Gospel has no interest in preserving your image. The divine ethos revealed in Christ is not reasonable. It is cruciform. Look at the Elder who accepts blame for theft. He knows he did not steal. He also knows something far more dangerous. He knows that Christ Himself was accused, beaten and condemned while innocent. So he chooses to stand where Christ stands rather than where the ego demands to stand. He does not argue. He does not clarify. He does not try to control the narrative. He bows. He becomes small. He lets truth be carried by God rather than by his own voice. This is not weakness. It is terrifying strength. In the second account the Deacon accepts public disgrace, penance and exclusion from communion for a crime planted in his cell by envy. He allows his spiritual father and the entire community to think him a thief. Why. Because love of God is worth more than the right to be seen as virtuous. And because hatred of slanderers is more deadly than slander itself. Notice what breaks the demonic power. Not investigation. Not confession extracted by pressure. But the prayer of the one who was falsely accused. Only the slandered man can heal the slanderer. This is the law of the Cross. Wounds heal wounds when they are offered in love. The story of Abba Nikon goes even further. He is beaten, excommunicated and isolated for three years for a crime he did not commit. He stands outside the church every Sunday begging for prayer like a criminal. When his innocence is finally revealed, he does not remain to receive praise. He leaves. He knows that glory is as dangerous as slander. Both feed the ego. Both can poison the soul. This is what divine discernment looks like. Not clever arguments but crucified love. Abba Isaiah gives the rule that offends every modern religious instinct. If you are slandered make a prostration and say forgive me even if you do not know what you did. This is not moral confusion. It is spiritual clarity. It is a refusal to let the heart harden. It is the choice to stand with Christ rather than with self justification. St Maximos explains why this cuts so deeply. The demons cannot always trap us through money or pleasure. So they use slander. They try to provoke hatred. They want you to burn with indignation. They want you to lose love. They want you to step off the Cross and into self defense. To endure slander without hatred is one of the highest ascetical acts. It requires that you look to God alone for vindication. St Ephraim then gives the final warning. Even when the truth comes out do not become proud. Do not feast on your vindication. God delivered you. You did not save yourself. This is why we want to soften these stories. They leave no room for spiritual narcissism. They strip away our moral theater. They expose how deeply attached we are to being right, to being respected, to being seen as good. The Cross does not negotiate with your ego. It kills it. Slander reveals what we truly love. If we love Christ we will accept being misunderstood. If we love ourselves we will fight to be cleared. The Evergetinos does not ask whether this is fair. It asks whether you want to belong to the Crucified. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:01:41 Fr. Charbel Abernethy: Page 349 number 2 00:03:19 Fr.

Baker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/9p4bF0xQOUs  Day 8 of the Brendan Banfield trial resumed with the defense continuing their case, recalling an expert witness and then delivering the highly anticipated testimony of the defendant himself, Brendan Banfield. He detailed the beginning of his physical affair with codefendant Juliana in August 2022, which started while his wife, Christine, and daughter were away. He also discussed his history of "lots of affairs." The defense broke for the day right as the defendant was discussing driving back to the home.

The afternoon session of the Brendan Banfield trial brought intense cross-examination, forensic testimony, and surprise rebuttal witnesses.Prosecutors pressed Banfield on delayed statements to police, multiple affairs, emotional letters to Juliana, and disputed timelines surrounding the morning of the attack.Detailed questioning focused on his actions after returning home, failure to immediately call 911, firearm use, and inconsistencies between his account and medical examiner findings. Expert witnesses analyzed audio from the 911 call, debating whether sounds captured were human or canine.In rebuttal, an IRS supervisor unexpectedly testified that no meeting had been scheduled the morning Banfield claimed to leave early — severely undermining his alibi. The episode closes with discussion of upcoming jury instructions, anticipated closing arguments, and what could be a quick verdict in this high-profile case.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/pretty-lies-and-alibis--4447192/support.ALL MERCH 10% off with code Sherlock10 at checkout  - NEW STYLES Donate: (Thank you for your support!

In this invited lecture at Marist College, hosted by the Catholic Studies Program as part of their Marcelin Lecture Series, I narrate some of the key points and developments in the story of how we ended up with the current list of the Seven Deadly Sins, which are: Gluttony, Lust, Greed, Sloth, Wrath, Envy, and Pride. Originally, these start out as the Eight Capital Vices, a list which includes sadness, acedia, and vainglory, and which does not include envy. So, how did we end up with the list we know today? The story involves Christian monks in the Egyptian desert, Benedictine monks, a reluctant pope, poets, scholastic professors, confessors, and mystics, and ranges over a millennium of thinkers and texts. In the process, I discuss some of the key players: Evagrius Ponticus, John Cassian, Gregory I, Alcuin, Peter Lombard, Thomas Aquinas, and Dante Alighieri This portion of the talk discusses the treatments of the seven deadly sins by poets ranging from Prudentius to Chaucer and Dante, and by mystics like St. John of the Cross. We also conclude by examining a few additional topics raised by questions from the audience.

Send us a textWhat if the best way to serve clients starts with taking care of the therapist's body in the room? We sit down with Destiny Davis and Dr. Victoria Rodriguez to challenge one of the field's quiet myths: that clinician comfort is a distraction. Through lived experience and clinical expertise, they lay out a clearer path where water breaks, seating, pacing, and boundaries aren't extras—they're the foundation for sharper attunement, cleaner thinking, and more ethical care.We dig into the messy middle of practice: how to self-disclose without shifting focus, what to do when a client shares your diagnosis, and why “failed” disclosures can still be gold for treatment. You'll hear practical strategies for building resilience into your schedule—telehealth setups, three-hour intensives with breaks, tapering from weekly to biweekly to monthly, and batching medical appointments. We also examine continuity of care with fresh eyes: if a client cannot stabilize without weekly sessions, is private outpatient the right level? It's a tough question that protects both safety and sustainability.Community is the throughline. High-quality consultation groups, especially with other chronically ill providers, turn isolation into problem-solving. Cross-disciplinary collaboration—bringing PTs, OTs, and RDs into the conversation—helps you navigate the loop between symptoms, function, and mood. Along the way, we surface hidden biases about disability, replace them with a disability justice lens, and offer a humane template for therapists to model self-care that clients can actually use. If you've ever powered through pain, ignored a full bladder, or felt guilty canceling for a flare, this conversation hands you language, tools, and permission to practice differently.Subscribe for more grounded, clinician-centered conversations, share this episode with a colleague who needs it, and leave a review to help others find the show.

The moment everyone has been waiting for finally happened. Brendan Banfield took the stand in his own defense — and went straight at the prosecution's case.The former IRS criminal investigator, charged with orchestrating the murders of his wife Christine and Joseph Ryan, told the jury there was never any plan to kill anyone. He admitted the affair with au pair Juliana Peres Magalhães. He said it started in August 2022 when his wife was out of town. But according to Banfield, he made it clear to Juliana from the start — this was just another affair. It wasn't going to change his marriage.When his attorney asked if he ever devised a plan with the au pair to "get rid of" Christine, Banfield didn't hesitate. He called the accusation absurd. He called it absolutely crazy. He said their relationship was barely two months old at that point — the idea that they were plotting murder was beyond belief.Banfield walked the jury through the morning of February 24th, 2023. The McDonald's stop. The stressed phone call from Juliana. The calls to Christine that went straight to voicemail. The ten-minute drive home. His version directly contradicts everything the au pair told prosecutors after she flipped.This trial now comes down to one question: which one of them is lying?Cross-examination begins Thursday. That's when the prosecutor gets their shot at him.#BrendanBanfield #HiddenKillers #ChristineBanfield #AuPairMurder #TrueCrimePodcast #VirginiaHomicide #JulianaPeresMagalhães #MurderTrial #TrialUpdate #TrueCrimeCommunityJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Brendan Banfield, Defendant & Husband of Christine Banfield, testified today in the Brendan Banfield murder trial. Banfield, a former IRS agent, is charged with four counts of aggravated murder in the February 2023 deaths of his wife Christine Banfield and Joseph Ryan at their Herndon, Virginia home.Prosecutors allege Banfield plotted the killings with the family's Brazilian au pair, Juliana Peres Magalhães, with whom he was having an affair. Magalhães has pleaded guilty to manslaughter and is expected to testify against Banfield.

For most of us, water is rarely something we think about. It's as close as the kitchen sink, the refrigerator door, or the bottle beside us at work. But for millions of people around the world, clean water remains out of reach—and the consequences stretch far beyond thirst.Jesus once said, “And if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones… that person will certainly not lose their reward” (Matthew 10:42). On today's episode of Faith & Finance, Aaron Griggs of Cross International shows us just how literal—and transformative—that cup of water can be.Globally, 2.2 billion people still lack access to safe drinking water. In places like Zambia, Malawi, and Uganda, the crisis is especially severe. Women and children often walk long distances every day to gather water from open pits shared with animals. The water is contaminated, illness is common, and the time lost reinforces generational poverty. Girls miss school, mothers miss work, and entire communities struggle to flourish.This quarter, FaithFi is partnering with Cross International, a Christ-centered humanitarian ministry working alongside local churches and Christian leaders to meet urgent needs and create sustainable change. Their work in Sub-Saharan Africa is showing what can happen when clean water meets the living water of the gospel.After a well is installed in a village, physical health improves quickly—but the long-term effects are even more remarkable. Hours once spent fetching water are freed for school, work, farming, and small business. Women gain economic opportunity. Children gain education. And through Cross International's ministry partners, families are introduced to Jesus, often receiving their first Bibles in their own language.One woman in Zambia described this transformation with simple gratitude:“I never knew that I would be where I am now. My family is healthier, and my children are in school. God has blessed us.”Another woman, Grace, shared how access to water restored not only her family but also her church. For years, her congregation met under a tree because there wasn't enough water for construction. After a new well was installed, the church was rebuilt, children joined their parents in worship, and an entire community experienced renewed dignity and hope. Her favorite Scripture says it best:“Whoever believes in me… rivers of living water will flow from within them.” — John 7:38Cross International's work meets physical needs, but always in the name of Christ. Water is a doorway—opening opportunities for flourishing today and pointing to eternal life in Him. That's why FaithFi is partnering with Cross International this quarter to serve 250 children across Malawi, Zambia, and Uganda, providing not only clean water but also food, education, and the hope of the gospel.For just $62, one child receives these essential resources for a year. Every gift supports not just a child, but often an entire family and community, moving them toward long-term stability and lasting hope.Clean water changes everything—it restores dignity, strengthens families, and reflects the life-giving love of Christ.To learn more or to join us in this effort, visit: FaithFi.com/Cross.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I have a question about the ‘Trump Accounts' for newborns.

Award-winning nonfiction writer and former investigative journalist Joe Jackson joins co-hosts Whitney Terrell and V.V. Ganeshananthan to talk about President Trump's “Don-roe Doctrine” and his imperial ambitions in Venezuela, Cuba, Greenland, and beyond. Jackson, the author of a new book, Splendid Liberators: Heroism, Betrayal, Resistance, and The Birth of American Empire, explains how Trump's plan relies on the template set by the Spanish-American War, through which the U.S. rose as a world power and ended Spanish rule in the Western Hemisphere. Jackson sheds light on the rhetoric that fueled the war, as well as the violent history of U.S. military interference in Cuba and the Philippines. Jackson takes us through iterations of the Monroe Doctrine and outlines the impact of that philosophy on Trump's desire for imperial expansion as well as his authoritarian control domestically, in cities like Minneapolis. He discusses how the Spanish-American War served as a turning point for America's soul, including writers of the time, and how it birthed a culture of war that has continued to impact the nation, its citizens, and the world ever since. Jackson reads from Splendid Liberators.To hear the full episode, subscribe through iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Spotify, or your favorite podcast app (include the forward slashes when searching).

If you've ever wondered how some people build businesses that last—this episode is your blueprint. Nicole sits down with Neri Karra-Silliman (author, advisor, entrepreneur, and Oxford entrepreneurship expert) to unpack what immigrant entrepreneurs can teach all of us about confidence, courage, resilience, and creating businesses that thrive for generations—even when you're not starting with privilege, connections, or a trust fund. In this episode, we get into: Why immigrant-founded businesses often endure longer—and why nobody's been asking the right questions The difference between an entrepreneur and a pioneer (hint: pioneers build what didn't exist before) How companies like WhatsApp and Duolingo started with impact-first problems  The 8 principles of business longevity inspired by immigrant entrepreneurs, including: Cross-cultural bridging (innovation happens when you live in more than one world) Community as currency (relationships are the wealth) “Frying in your own oil” (aka self-sufficiency before outside money makes you lazy) Shared values over growth-at-all-costsRejection as fuel (“no” is the beginning of negotiation) Luck as a skill (recognizing moments and playing your hand) Faith as the foundation for risk, reinvention, and resilience And the most overlooked glue of all: kindness Immigrants aren't the problem—they're the blueprint. This conversation will change how you think about risk, reinvention, and what it really takes to build something that lasts (with profit and purpose). Thank you to our sponsors! Sex is a skill.

This week was a very fun one, although I think we need to take off the comedy tag because we seem to be having a semi-serious conversation every episode, we're basically Jordan Peterson at this point. Other than the booorriinggg serious talk, we hear about a numerical character that I think has been forgotten for far too long. We played a game, and we heard some very big news from our hardest brother Cross. You'll have to listen to find out. OH OH OH, annnddd there is a very cool surprise at the end that we thoroughly enjoyed, almost more than Carrington's news I think! Thank you all for listening!!! Talk soon, yeah? right? We should talk soon. Please?    Email: hotcrossbunspod@gmail.com Instagram/TikTok: @hotcrossbunspod

A "superstar" is what Jesus refused to be. The crowds were coming to see a show. Standing-room-only crowds. The kind of multitudes that any ministry would love to have. But the Lord shut that down, hard. He wasn't trying to gain an audience to watch, listen, and get a free sandwich on the way out. Christ was after commitment. Everything He said and did made a claim on our lives. And that's not the road to celebrity; it's the road to the Cross.

After years of building your private practice, the time has come to sell. The business you have poured your time, energy, and money into is being bought by private equity. Should you take the payout in PE shares or cash? Nate Reineke delves into some key considerations that docs like you should know when faced with this situation. We break down how shares could benefit you in the long run and how cash could help keep you diversified. We also look at how taking some of each could offer the best of both worlds. We also answer your colleagues' questions. A Psychiatrist in New Jersey says, “We are financially independent but still working since we are in our mid 40s. We are considering shifting some money out of stocks and into bonds to get to a 60/40 portfolio. Is that a good idea for us?” An Ophthalmologist in Georgia asks, “We have all the money we need to pay for college. Should I take our money out of the stock market?” A Hand surgeon in Florida wonders, “The surrender period if finished on a variable annuity we purchased a while back. We were told that we are only paying 1% in fees on the account. Should we leave the money in the annuity?” Are you ready to turn worries about taxes and investing into all the money you need for college and retirement? It's time to make a plan and get on track.

This message begins with a mighty "Therefore," marking one of the great transitions in this book in Romans 5:1, 2.  Having seen God's great plan of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ revealed at the Cross of Christ, and discovering how each believer is saved by faith as exemplified in Abraham, we turn to consider now the life-changing ramifications of our faith.  We discover Three Treasures each believer has as a result of God's declaration of us as righteous through faith in Jesus Christ: we have PEACE WITH GOD through our  LORD Jesus Christ, through Him we have been introduced by faith into an eternal GRACE in which we stand, and we can confidently boast in our HOPE of the Glory of God.visit us at: conejochurch.com

Rev. James Harper preaches on 2 Corinthians 2:12-17 as part of our sermon series, "A Cross-Shaped Life." The Scripture is not included in the podcast this week, so here it is: 12 When I came to Troas to preach the gospel of Christ, even though a door was opened for me in the Lord, 13 my spirit was not at rest because I did not find my brother Titus there. So I took leave of them and went on to Macedonia. 14 But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere. 15 For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing, 16 to one a fragrance from death to death, to the other a fragrance from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things? 17 For we are not, like so many, peddlers of God's word, but as men of sincerity, as commissioned by God, in the sight of God we speak in Christ.   Plan a visit to FPC Douglasville where you will find Bible-focused worship, preaching, and teaching, and a great community for adults, teens, and children!  www.fpcdouglasville.org/planavisit .

Falling off a goal is normal. Knowing how to get back on track—without shame or drama—is the real skill. I'm hosting a free 60-minute live workshop on Tuesday, January 27 at 7pm ET to teach a simple framework for getting unstuck. Register now for ⁠⁠Falling Off is Part of It: The Framework for Getting Back on Track (Without the Drama)⁠⁠! In this episode, Brad Stulberg explores how to cultivate excellence in a chaotic world. He explains how excellence is a lifelong practice rooted in daily effort, presence, and values, not a final achievement. Brad also discusses the importance of process over outcome, balancing ambition with self-kindness, and finding meaning through consistent, value-driven actions. The conversation also covers overcoming burnout, the illusion of perfect balance, and how to live intentionally in a chaotic world, offering practical advice for cultivating fulfillment and true greatness in everyday life. Exciting News!!! Coming in March, 2026, my new book, ⁠⁠How a Little Becomes a Lot: The Art of Small Changes for a More Meaningful Life is now available for pre-orders!⁠⁠ Key Takeaways: The concept of excellence as a continuous practice rather than a fixed destination. The transformative nature of pursuing goals and its impact on character and personal growth. The importance of a process mindset, focusing on daily efforts and consistency. The metaphor of "feeding the good wolf" to emphasize nurturing positive qualities. The balance between striving for outcomes and being present in the process. The significance of measuring effort over outcomes for sustained progress. The idea of "raising the floor" to improve performance on average days. The role of care and commitment in achieving excellence. The distinction between meaningful engagement and the pitfalls of comfort and convenience. The necessity of intentional living and effort in a chaotic, technology-driven world. For full show notes: ⁠click here⁠!

Andrew is recording from Chicago this week, in town for a denominational conference and surviving winter one session at a time. Frank hosted a Cross & Crown launch party at a local coffee shop, proving once again that church planting runs just as much on caffeine as it does on faith.Back at Lakeview, Tim officially unveiled the new site plan to the congregation, complete with vision, anticipation, and the collective sound of people trying to picture where everything will go.From conference halls to coffee counters to construction drawings, it's another reminder that ministry happens in a lot of places, and none of them are boring.

Pastor Mike introduces Psalm 23 as a source of comfort for the living rather than a text for the dead, offering three keys to view the scripture in "Technicolor”. These keys include identifying the theological center as God's presence ("for you are with me"), placing the chapter canonically as the Great Shepherd's present care between the cross of Psalm 22 and the crown of Psalm 24, and recognizing the text contains no commands, serving strictly as a resting place of privilege and gospel provision.

Dr. Macie Sweet and Jason Miller - This year during Lent, we're offering a workshop with Dr. Macie Sweet, a scholar of medieval theology at the University of Notre Dame. For two thousand years, depictions of the crucifixion of Jesus have been portrayed through art. Age by age, artistic relics have given historians a glimpse into both cultural and theological focuses by how the cross and Jesus are represented. To register for the workshop, head to our website. This episode includes a discussion of three historical depictions of the cross.

What happens when obedience doesn't make sense—but you do it anyway? In this episode of the MCINTYRE INC Podcast, Michael & Brianna McIntyre sit down with Wade Aaron, founder of Christ's Reward, to talk about carrying a ten-foot cross through cities across America and witnessing the Holy Spirit move in real time. From street evangelism and unexpected baptisms to persecution, compassion, and radical obedience, this conversation explores what faith looks like outside the church walls. Wade shares: Why God told him to carry a physical cross across the nation Real encounters from the streets (salvations, baptisms, healing) How to respond to hostility with love instead of arguments Why simplicity—not performance—unlocks spiritual power How Next Level Experience helped catalyze Christ's Reward This episode is for anyone who feels there is more—more purpose, more boldness, more faith in action.
