7/16/25 - St. Simon Stock was a 13th-century English Carmelite friar whose life helped shape the future of the Carmelite Order during a critical time of transition from the deserts of Mount Carmel to the cities of Europe. Born in Kent and said to have lived as a hermit in the hollow of a tree (earning him the name “Stock”), he was known for his deep asceticism and devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary. In 1251, according to tradition, the Virgin appeared to him in Aylesford, England, and gave him the Brown Scapular, with the promise that “those who die wearing it shall not suffer eternal fire.” This vision sparked widespread Marian devotion and established the scapular as one of the most beloved sacramentals in the Church. Through his leadership, mystical experiences, and enduring spiritual influence, St. Simon Stock remains a model of Carmelite spirituality rooted in humility, prayer, and total trust in Our Lady.

Friends of the Rosary,Today, July 14, in the United States, we celebrate the Feast Day of St. Kateri Tekakwitha (1656-1680), the first native American to be declared a Saint.Born in 1656 near Auriesville, New York, she was the daughter of a pagan Mohawk chief and a Christian Algonquin woman.When she was a child, a smallpox epidemic attacked her tribe, and both her parents and brother died. She was left with permanent scars on her face and impaired eyesight. Her uncle, who had now become chief of the tribe, adopted her, and her aunts began planning her marriage while she was still very young.A Jesuit missionary baptized Kateri (taking the name Katery after Catherine of Siena) Tekakwitha at the age of twenty. Like her namesake, she was drawn into intimate communion with God and suffered persecution for his sake, incurring the hostility of her tribe.She devoted her life to prayer, penitential practices, and caring for the sick and aged in Caughnawaga, a Jesuit mission near Montreal, where she escaped. There, she spent the last three years of her life giving herself to prayer, mortification, and works of charity.Moved by God's love for humanity, she saw the dignity in each of her people. She was devoted to the Eucharist and to Jesus Christ crucified. Known as the “Lily of the Mohawks,” Kateri spent her short life dedicating herself entirely to God through long hours of prayer and practicing severe fasting as penance for the conversion of her nation.She died at the age of 24. Witnesses reported that within minutes of her death, the scars from smallpox completely vanished, and her face shone with radiant beauty.Devotion to Kateri began immediately after her death, and her body, enshrined in Caughnawaga, near Montreal, in Quebec — where she grew in holiness and devotion to the Blessed Sacrament — is visited by many each year.Additionally, Our Lady of Martyrs Shrine, in Fultonville, NY, the birthplace of St. Kateri Tekakwitha, is a great place to make a pilgrimage. Another shrine to visit is the St. Kateri Tekakwitha National Shrine and Historic Site in Fonda, NY.She was beatified by Pope John Paul II in 1980, and canonized by Pope Benedict XVI on October 21, 2012.Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Devotion : Jewels in Your Crown / 2 Thessalonians 2:17-3:6 by Community Lutheran Church
Ruth's faithful love reflected God's faithful love...
God is not hidden, but seeing Him comes through desire, expectation, and devotion to do so.

Do you rush through your prayers without waiting for God's response? Jesse Cope challenges listeners to create space for divine guidance by actually listening after asking for direction. This powerful episode examines how our spiritual impatience mirrors broader cultural patterns where thoughtful silence feels almost impossible.The honeymoon phase of relationships doesn't have to end. Drawing from pastoral wisdom, Jesse presents a transformative approach to marriage—treating each day as a competition to "out-love" your spouse rather than keeping score. This refreshing perspective contrasts with the complacency that often creeps into long-term relationships, offering practical wisdom for rekindling that initial enthusiasm.Through an exploration of 1 Corinthians 9, the podcast addresses our responsibility toward spiritual leaders, emphasizing the importance of compensating pastors fairly so they can focus fully on ministry. Jesse shares a touching story about how a simple kind word brightened someone's entire day, demonstrating how our everyday interactions become our most powerful witness.Historical reflections highlight George H.W. Bush's powerful inaugural prayer that "there is but one just use of power and it is to serve people." This principle applies not just to national leadership but to everyone with any measure of authority—parents, managers, teachers, and community leaders. The founders' emphasis on looking to God while practicing "industry, frugality, and sobriety" offers timeless guidance for contemporary challenges.Whether you're struggling with spiritual discipline, seeking to strengthen your marriage, or wondering how to live out your faith authentically, this episode delivers practical wisdom for drawing closer to God and serving others more effectively. Listen now and discover how small shifts in perspective can transform your relationships and deepen your faith journey.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe
In this episode of the Wolff Peace series, host Avis Kalfsbeek examines the tension between obedience and conscience by pairing Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter with Palestinian philosopher and peacebuilder Sari Nusseibeh. Frankfurter's ruling in Minersville v. Gobitis prioritized national unity over religious freedom, sparking backlash and violence. In contrast, Nusseibeh's life work offers a model of nonviolent dignity and resistance under the weight of systemic oppression. Together, their voices challenge us to rethink how peace interacts with the right to dissent. In this episode: The logic and consequences of Minersville v. Gobitis The lived peace philosophy of Sari Nusseibeh Two reflection questions for your head and heart Visit aviskalfsbeek.com to learn more about the podcast and books.

The devotion of the wearing of the Brown Scapular, while popular among Catholics, is shrouded in mystery for many. Under the patronage of Mary, Our Lady of Mount Carmel, it is actually an ancient devotion with Old Testament roots leading to its founding in the middle ages.

Diese Folge von From Retro to Neo ist nicht ohne Grund die bislang längste, die wir für euch aufgezeichnet haben: Das Horror-Adventure Devotion des taiwanesischen Entwicklers Red Candle Games wurde nach seinem Erscheinen im Jahr 2019 zunächst groß gefeiert und verschwand trotzdem innerhalb weniger Tage in der Versenkung. In diesem Podcast Andy erklärt nicht nur, warum Devotion so gut ist, sondern erzählt euch auch die spannende Geschichte rund um die Zensur und das Verschwinden des Spiels und wieso ihr es nun endlich auf legalem Weg erwerben könnt. Und was hat das eigentlich alles mit Winnie Puuh zu tun? Viel Spaß beim Hören! Andy & Benedikt
