Church on the Rockers, Somewhere in the neighborhood of 30 years ago, I went with several of my family members and some friends to the Araneta Colosseum in Cubao, the transportation center of the metroplex that is Manila in the Philippines. We were there with tickets to see Michael W. Smith and Amy Grant live at the Colosseum. It was amazing. I don't actually remember the size of the Araneta Colosseum, but it seemed like a billion Filipinos were there to rock out with two of Contemporary Christian Music's pioneers. Many years later, I brought my oldest child along to relive that experience. Or the closest thing to it; Lincoln Brewster in the Mariner Theater in Homer, Alaska. It was awesome. And VERY loud. Which is what I was hoping for. By the end of the first song, my child was covering her ears. Halfway through the second song, she was over it. Apparently, she is not as enthusiastic about skull crushing bass as I am. This Sunday we are going to talk about music at Church on the Rock Homer. Why do we do corporate worship the way we do it? Why the drums? Why the volume? How do we pick songs? Is there a right and wrong way to worship together as a church? Our elders and staff have contributed significantly to this discussion and I am very excited to bring the results of those discussions to you. It's gonna be a rockin' good time! Pastor Aaron Weisser

Mabuting Balita | Oktubre 17, 2022 – Lunes Ika – 29 na Linggo Karaniwang Panahon Ebanghelyo: Lucas 12:13-21 Sinabi kay Hesus ng isa sa karamihan: “Guro, sabihin mo nga sa aking kapatid na hatian ako ng mana.” Ngunit sinabi ni Hesus sa kanya: “Kaibigan, sino ang nagtalaga sa akin bilang hukom o tagapaghati ninyo? “At sinabi niya sa mga tao: “Mag-ingat kayo at iwasan ang bawat uri ng kasakiman sapagkat magkaroon man ng marami ang tao, hindi sa kanyang mga ari-arian nakasalalay ang kanyang buhay.” At idinagdag pa ni Hesus ang isang talinhaga: “May isang taong mayaman na maraming tinubo sa kanyang lupain. Kaya nag-isip-isip siya: ‘Ano ang aking gagawin? Wala man lang akong mapagtipunan ng aking ani.' At sinabi niya: ‘Ito ang aking gagawin, gigibain ko ang aking mga bodega at magtatayo ako ng mas malalaki; doon ko titipunin ang lahat kong trigo at ang iba pa. At masasabi ko na sa aking sarili: Kaibigan, marami ka ng ari-ariang nakalaan para sa maraming taon. Magpahinga ka, kumain, uminom at magsaya.' Ngunit sinabi sa kanya ng Diyos: ‘Hangal! Sa gabi ring ito, babawiin sa iyo ang iyong buhay. Mapapasakanino na ang iyong inihanda?' Gayon din ang masasabi sa sinumang nag-iimpok ng yaman para sa kanyang sarili at walang tinitubo para sa Diyos.” Pagninilay: Ano ba ang ating dapat pag-ipunan? Sa araw na ito ng kapistahan ni San Ignacio ng Antioquia, tayo ay pinaaalalahanan na ang pagbabagong buhay upang makilala natin ang Diyos sa tuwid na daan ay walang pinipiling edad. Si San Ignacio ay isang Griyego na kinalauna'y umanib sa pananampalatayang Kristiyanismo. Kilala si San Ignacio bilang Patriarka na kinikilala ng Simbahan bilang haligi ng sinaunang pananampalatayang Kristiano dahil sa kanyang mga sinulat tungkol sa Simbahan, mga sakramento at ukol sa pamumuno ng Obispo, kasama ng kanyang kaibigang si Policarpio. Siya ay nag-alay ng buhay at dugo bilang martir sa pagsunod sa Panginoon. Sa ating Ebanghelyo, tayo ay hinihikayat na mag-impok ng kayamanan sa langit hindi ng bagay na kinalauna'y maiiwanan lamang natin dito sa lupa. Walang masamang mag-hanap-buhay, maghangad na umahon sa kahirapan at magkaroon ng ari-arian. Ngunit kung ang ating buhay, atensiyon at puso ay nakatuon na lamang sa mga bagay namatatagpuaan dito sa lupa, nakakaligtaan natin na higit na dapat unahin natin ang mga bagay na makapagliligtas sa atin at magdadala sa atin sa kahariaan ng Diyos. Hilingin natin sa Diyos na kasihan tayo ng kanyang Espiritu upang lagi nating hangarin at unahin sa ating buhay ang Diyos. Ang Diyos na laging naghahangad na makapiling tayo hanggang wakas dahil mahal niya tayo. Gamitin nawa tayo ng Diyos upang maging kalasag upang mapaghandaan natin ang ating buhay sa kabila at gayundi'y maging instrumento nawa tayo sa pamamagitan ng social media at iba pang paraan upang hikayatin ang iba na pag-ibayuhin ang paghahanda para sa ating buhay kasama ng Panginoon sa kanyang Kaharian, Pagpalain kayo ng Diyos.

Mabuting Balita | Oktubre 13, 2022 – Huwebes Ika – 28 na Linggo sa Karaniwang Panahon Ebanghelyo: Lucas 11:47-54 Sinabi ni Hesus: “Sawimpalad kayong nagtatayo ng mga puntod sa Mga Propetang pinatay ng inyong mga ama. Sa gayon ninyo inaamin at sinasang-ayunan ang mga ginawa ng inyong mga ama; iniligpit nila ang Mga Propeta, at makapagtatayo na kayo ngayon. At sinabi rin ng karunungan ng Diyos: “Nagsugo ako sa kanila ng Mga Propeta at mga apostol ngunit uusigin nila at papatayin ang ilan sa kanila. Kayat papapanagutin ang salinlahing ito sa dugo ng lahat ng propeta, sa dugong nabuhos mula pa sa pagkatatag ng mundo, mula sa dugo ni Abel hanggang sa dugo ni Zacarias na nasawi sa pagitan ng altar at ng santuwaryo. Oo, sinasabi ko sa inyo, papapanagutin ang salinlahing ito. Sawimpalad kayong mga guro ng Batas na umagaw sa susi ng kaalaman. Hindi na kayo pumasok at hinahadlangan pa ninyo ang mga makapapasok.” Pagkatapos ay umalis si Hesus at sinimulan naman ng mga guro ng Batas at mga Pariseo na mahigpit na nakipagtalo sa kanya. Pinapagsalita nila siya tungkol sa maraming bagay at pilit na sinisilo sa anumang sinasabi niya. Pagninilay: Nakalulugkot isipin na ang mga Pariseo at mga guro ng batas ay magkasalungat sa itinuturo ni Hesus. Hindi nila maunawaan at pilit nilang hinahanapan ng mali si Hesus dahil hindi nila kinikilala si Hesus bilang Anak ng Kataas-taasan. Ang kanilang mga paliwanag at turo ay nakaugat lamang sa pananaw bilang tao at hindi ayon sa pananaw ng Diyos kaya ganoon na lamang ang kanilang inaasal sa harapan ng Panginoong Hesus at kung papaano nila siya tratuhin. Tayo ay inaanyayahan na maging bukas sa tunay na turo at karunungan ng Diyos. Hinihikayat tayo na tumingin ayon sa kung papaano tumingin ang Diyos sa atin. Magkaiba ang Katarungan ng Diyos at ng tao; ang katarungan ng Diyos ay nakabase sa dkila Niyang pagmamahal sa sanlibutan ngunit ang katarungan ng tao ay madalas nakabase kaparusahan, poot at paghihiganti at sapat na sa kanilang maisakatuparan ng literal ang mga alituntuning nakasulat kaysa manaig ang pagmamahal at habag na ipinahahayag ng Panginoon nang siya ay magpatawad ng mga nagkakasala, nagdadalawang isip at itinakwil ng lipunan dahil sa pagkakasakit. -Fr. Rey Hector Paglinawan | Diocese of Cubao

#GPSPodcastCubao There is a district in Quezon City which is visited by those who want to go shopping and are looking for entertainment and leisure. In this episode, we will talk about the history of Cubao before it became a shopping and commercial hub. Where did the name of the district come from?

2021: The year that was in beauty pageants.  With the Miss Globe and Miss Intercontinental titles (and a few more) secured by the Philippines, punctuated by Bea Gomez's Top 5 finish at Miss Universe, does the country retain its reputation as the current pageant powerhouse in the world, universe, cosmos, including all outlying star-systems?Aba mga Bes, kasama natin ang not one, but two, verified pageant insiders na sina CJ (Korona Filiipina) at Alexa (Qrown Philippines). Ganyan namin kayo ka-love, mga Badeng!  And how do we love thee, mga Bessies, you ask? Let us count the ways.   Pinilit namin si Cj at Alexa to spill the beans about inside information, behind-the-scenes tidbits, with matching sideline commentary tungkol sa mga pageant ganaps during the past year. Tinanong daw ni Cindy ang Miss Intercontinental org kung bakit sa kanya binigay ang korona – ano ang sagot ng org? Bakit destined si Maureen for Miss Globe and bakit naging blessing in disguise ang hindi niya pagsungkit ng Bb. Pilipinas-Internatiional title? And speaking of International, kamusta na si Hannah? Shempre, happy tayong mga miron sa top 5 finish ni Bea sa Miss U, pero sa totoo lang, inasahan ba ito ng mga pageant pages? What did MUP do differently this year – did they learn from their ‘mistakes' last year? And we bet na hindi niyo pa ‘to naririnig – ang chika ng mga queens, mas mahirap na daw manalo sa local Philippine pageants vs.  international pageants! Kalerkee, diba?  Andami pa, Bessies! We kiki-ed about Miss Bahrain, this year's Miss Canada – both victims of toxic Pinoy pageant fandom, kung dapat na bang ibalik ang franchise sa Cubao, at kung makakasira ba ang postponement ng Miss World sa pag-alagwa ng chances ng pambato nating si Tracy.   May kulang pa ba? Ay opkors. Hindii pwedeng hindi pag-usapan sina SamBer at SamPan at si Angkol.   Kuta-kutakot na insider information, mga Bes. If you are a beauty pageant fiend, must-listen-to ang project nato! Click play na, Bes, para hindi ma-break ang semi-final streak natin sa Miss U next year!

In theology school, Carlo Nakar asked, “Lord, what is the hardest thing you could possibly ask me to do?” He got a verbal answer.

“Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.” Today on Dumb Nerds we have on the super hilarious and talented Dhruv Singh (I'm Too Effin’ High, UCB) to talk about one of his heroes, Muhammad Ali. Dhruv talks about why Muhammad was so great and admirable in and out of the boxing ring, how Muhammad stood up for black rights and as a proud Muslim in the 1950s and 1960s when hardly, if any celebrity would. Muhammad Ali wasn't afraid to be himself and be unpopular in a predominant white American society. Today he is popularly looked up to as a hero. Dhurv and Cassi talk about the switch from hated man to a cherished and beloved American icon. They also get into some of Muhammad’s most famous fights like “Rumble in the Jungle” where 32 year old Muhammad Ali took on 25 year old George Foreman, and ended it in the eighth round in Kinshasa, Zaire. There was also “Thrilla in Manilla”, the 1975 fight for the heavyweight championship of the world against Joe Frazier at the Philippine Coliseum in Cubao, Quezon City, Philippines. They also discuss Muhammad's amazing poetic trash talking that influenced rap music today. Even if you boxing isn’t for you, this is an episode you won’t want to miss!  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Dodgeball Baggage - The Jury is out The Cigar of the Week is the Cruzado Domenicos. From the mind of Dion Giolito, creater of Illusione Cigars, we get to sample his Cruzado line. The Domenicos is a 5 5/8” by 46 ring gauge Corona Gorda (Dion lists it as a Grand Corona in Perlmans) format. You’ll find Cruzado to be a tad lighter in body & flavor than Illusione. The filler is a blend of Honduran and Nicaraguan Criollo and Corojo tobaccos. The binder is Nicaraguan and the wrapper is Nicaraguan Criollo (Perlman lists it as a Colorado Maduro). The wrapper shades will run from Cafe Claro to Cafe Rosado. Cruzado cigars are manufactured in the Raices Cubanas factory in Honduras and come packaged in wooden boxes with “partial dress” edge wrapping at 20 cigars to the box.
