Settle Accounts While There's Time: St. Paul's Honesty and Christ's Deliverance Today's Homily reflects on two Scripture passages . . . . . . St. Paul's candid confession of his inner struggle (Romans) and Jesus' call to read the signs of the times (Luke). St. Paul admits that although he desires to do good, he often fails, revealing the inner conflict between grace and the lingering effects of sin. His honesty shows that even the greatest saints struggle internally, reminding us that the Christian life is not a self-improvement project but a reliance on Christ, who alone delivers us from our divided selves. The Homily then helps us to connect this with Jesus' teaching about interpreting signs. People easily read the weather or social cues yet fail to recognize God's movements in their own lives. Jesus urges His listeners to discern the spiritual signs around them and respond. Discern the Spiritual Signs Jesus warns that our lives are moving toward a final judgment, likening it to walking with an adversary toward a magistrate. Therefore, we must “settle accounts” now through repentance, charity, and works of mercy. The Homily also touches on the Church's understanding of purgatory . . . where remaining spiritual debts are purified . . . and highlights the importance of praying for the dead. Ultimately, both readings invite believers to face their own struggles honestly, remain attentive to God's grace, and live now in a way that prepares them for their final meeting with the Lord.

What does true contentment look like for a man of faith? How do you find lasting joy when life changes — from the stress bubble to retirement and beyond? In this 'Average Joe' conversation, Pastor Jim Ramos sits down with longtime friend and Men in the Arena board member Jeff Dyck to talk about joy, purpose, and the secret to lasting contentment. Together, they unpack what it means to know who you are, embrace your calling, and serve others with the gifts God's given you — no matter your season of life. You'll get insight on how to discover and "deal the hand" God's given you and then how that helps you find true joy no matter the circumstance.

Daniel's three friends find themselves face-to-face with the ugliness of Babylon. Their personal convictions become a public ultimatum. Yet they demonstrate a posture, a resolve, and a faith that have made this one of the most beloved stories in Biblical literature. But the story wasn't written down just to be retold; it is intended to be re-lived.

Bischof Oster ruft uns an! Er behauptet, Maschinen seien nicht fähig zur Liebe und daher kein Ersatz für die Liebe von Maria. Könnte da womöglich etwas dran sein?

Wir nehmen ein US-Präsidialmemorandum (NSPM‑7) zum Ausgangspunkt: Demnach könnte Religionskritik, die sich gegen das Christentum richtet, als organisierte politische Gewalt bis hin zu Inlandsterrorismus bewertet werden. Wir ordnen die Hintergründe ein, berichten von unserer ersten Überraschung und prüfen, ob Atheisten zum neuen Buhmann erklärt werden. Dabei erklären wir, was solche sicherheitspolitischen Anordnungen tatsächlich bewirken – bindend für Behörden, ohne Gesetzeskraft – und wie Narrative über Foren, Social Media, Stammtische und Vorträge kursieren. Am Ende steht die Frage, welche Konsequenzen das für säkulare Positionen und freie Debatte hat.   Kommentare? Hier geht's zu YouTube...

Wir prüfen die verbreitete Behauptung, die Kirchen entlasteten den Staat über die Kirchensteuer. Entscheidend: Kirchensteuer mindert die Einkommensteuer – der Staat nimmt weniger ein. Laut jüngstem Subventionsbericht kostet die Absetzbarkeit 2023 rund 4,5 Milliarden Euro. Bei 12 Milliarden Kirchensteuer tragen Mitglieder netto etwa 8 Milliarden, der Rest kommt faktisch vom Staat. Wir ordnen alte Narrative von „Sozialschmarotzern“ und angeblich drohenden Steuererhöhungen ein und fragen, wie viel der Gelder wirklich in Kitas, Schulen und Caritas fließt.   Kommentare?

Wir stellen die prekäre Frage, ob wir als Atheisten überhaupt jemanden überzeugen können – oder ob wir am Ende meist nur zu uns selbst sprechen. Die Frage stellt sich auch für die Kirchen: Die Überzeugungskraft scheint auf beiden Seiten begrenzt. Wir diskutieren, warum Glauben oft tief emotional und sozial verankert ist. Wir überlegen uns, welche Menschen wir mit unseren Argumenten dennoch erreichen können, und was am besten funktioniert.   Kommentare? Hier geht's zu YouTube...

There have been many ‘Babylons' in history. Many societies and countries have risen to power only to fall shortly thereafter. This week, we look at a prophetic, yet timeless dream that Daniel interpreted for a King. It challenged their true allegiances and hopes then, and it should still challenge ours today. Where does our true hope lie? The invitation for them and for us is to come face to face with the ‘rock bottom' truth of the dream so we can live with true hope.

Babylon is not a locality—it's a mentality. God's people have always faced the challenge of living in “Babylon” without losing who they are or what they're called to. Yet God also calls His people to influence Babylon. How can we live with conviction while building connection, favour, and influence? Join us as we learn from the roadmap Daniel and his friends left us.

Today's focus is on the heart of prayer as Jesus teaches in the Sermon on the Mount. Prayer is not meant to be a performance for others, but an authentic, private conversation with our Heavenly Father. Jesus warns against praying for the admiration of people or using empty, repetitive words to sound spiritual. Instead, the invitation is to come before God with sincerity, seeking connection rather than approval. The call is to examine our motives: are we praying to impress, or to truly commune with God?Jesus provides a model for prayer in what we call the Lord's Prayer. The prayer begins with relationship—addressing God as Father, which speaks to intimacy and belonging. It moves to worship, recognizing God's holiness and uniqueness, and then to submission, asking for God's kingdom and will to be realized on earth. This first half centers on God's purposes and glory.The second half of the prayer shifts to our daily needs, dependence, and the reality of our brokenness. Jesus teaches us to ask for daily provision, echoing the Israelites' dependence on God for manna in the wilderness. He emphasizes forgiveness, both receiving it from God and extending it to others, highlighting that forgiveness is not optional but essential for those who follow Christ. Repentance is not just about turning from sin, but about turning toward God, filling our lives with His presence and truth.Finally, Jesus instructs us to seek deliverance from temptation and evil, not because God tempts us, but because we need His strength to resist the pull of our own wisdom and the lies of the enemy. The Lord's Prayer is not just a formula, but a pattern for authentic, surrendered living. Jesus himself models this in Gethsemane, praying with honesty, intimacy, and submission: “Not my will, but yours be done.” True prayer may not always change our circumstances, but it will always change our hearts, aligning us with God's will and making us His representatives in the world.

2025-10-12 How do you live with character and integrity in a hostile and contentious culture? How do we stand firm and love well in a culture of compromise? As followers of Jesus, we are called to love God and love people. Loving people involves having the courage and tact to speak truth with grace. Loving God can sometimes mean believing and doing countercultural things. Join us this week as we begin a new series, following the life of Daniel, learning to live in Babylon.

Jörn in Gefahr! Während der Sommerpause war Jörn zu zahlreichen Debatten eingeladen. Einige davon fanden online und mit Muslimen statt. Auffällig waren dabei (neben einer ungewöhnlichen Schärfe der Debatte) vor allem Bildungslücken bei naturwissenschaftlichen Themen. Das gilt vor allem für die Evolutionslehre, die für viele Muslime offenbar ein besonders rotes Tuch ist. Die Ketzer diskutieren einige Fragen und Antworten.   Kommentare? Hier geht's zu YouTube...

Matthias untersucht, wie Theologen die Bibel verdrehen, damit die Verse scheinbar belegen, was ihnen in den Kram passt. Wie weit die Theologen dabei gehen, ist verblüffend. Mit vielen Worten, selektiv ausgewählten Daten und suggestiven Scheinargumenten werden selbst völlig eindeutige Bibeltexte ins Gegenteil verkehrt. Als Beispiel wählt er das Buch »Hände weg!?« von Joachim Kügler.  Kommentare?

Batman and the Joker. Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader. Frodo and Sauron. Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort. Every good story has a hero and a villain—two characters locked in conflict. But have you ever wondered what really separates them? Why we cheer for one and recoil from the other? Truth is, the line between hero and villain is surprisingly thin. And how we respond to that line is what makes our own lives a story worth telling... or one that isn't.

Today's passage from Matthew 5:21-32 invites us to look beyond the surface of our actions and examine the true state of our hearts. Jesus challenges the mindset that righteousness is simply about avoiding the “big sins” like murder or adultery. Instead, He reveals that the law was always meant to point us toward a deeper transformation—a heart that reflects God's own character. In a culture, both then and now, where it's easy to compare ourselves to others and feel “good enough,” Jesus calls us to a higher standard, one that is not about outward compliance but inward renewal.When Jesus addresses murder, He doesn't stop at the act itself. He exposes the root: anger. Anger, left unchecked, dehumanizes others and sows seeds of destruction in our relationships. Jesus calls us not only to avoid violence but to actively pursue reconciliation, even if it means interrupting our worship to make things right with someone. This is a radical call to peacemaking, to be people who heal rather than harm.Similarly, with adultery, Jesus goes beyond the physical act and points to the heart's desires. Lust is not a private matter; it is a seed that, if left to grow, will choke out purity and damage relationships. Jesus' words about tearing out an eye or cutting off a hand are not literal commands but a call to deal ruthlessly with sin—removing whatever leads us astray, no matter the cost. This is a call to personal responsibility and accountability, especially in a culture that often shifts blame.On the topic of divorce, Jesus confronts the casual attitude toward marriage that was prevalent in His day and is still common now. He reminds us that marriage is a sacred covenant, not a disposable contract. The faithfulness we show in marriage is meant to reflect God's own covenant faithfulness to His people. Rather than looking for loopholes, we are called to honor our commitments and fight for our marriages, embodying the grace and perseverance God shows us.Ultimately, Jesus is not simply raising the bar—He is revealing that the bar was always about the heart. He offers us not just a new set of rules, but the power of the Holy Spirit to transform us from the inside out. The invitation is to examine our hearts, pursue reconciliation, deal radically with sin, and honor our covenants, all by His grace.

2025-09-07: We've all put down a book or turned off a movie that wasn't worth finishing—it was probably missing the essentials of a good story. The same is true in life. The very elements that make stories compelling are the ones that make our lives meaningful, because they echo the greatest story ever told—the gospel, the story of Jesus. Don't waste your life. Live a story worth telling.

2025-08-31: We all end up in the wilderness—by choice, by others, by circumstance, and even by God's leading. But the wilderness is not your home. Follow Jesus through it. Don't take shortcuts—they only keep you stuck. Jesus went through the wilderness so it would never be your destination.

Today's focus is on the truth that we are built to belong—created by God to live life together as a spiritual family. The Christian life is not meant to be lived in isolation, but in deep, authentic community with one another. Just as a single coal quickly grows cold when separated from the fire, so too does our faith lose its vibrancy when we try to walk alone. The early church in Acts 2 gives us a powerful example: they were together, sharing life, resources, meals, and prayer, united by a common purpose and devotion to Jesus. Their togetherness was not just about proximity, but about spiritual unity, vulnerability, and a willingness to meet each other's needs—both material and spiritual.This kind of community requires commitment and vulnerability. It means being willing to be known, to carry one another's burdens, to encourage, and to forgive. The “one anothers” of Scripture—love one another, bear one another's burdens, encourage one another, forgive one another—are not optional extras, but the very heart of what it means to be the church. True fellowship goes beyond surface-level relationships or socializing; it's about doing life together, asking each other how we're really doing spiritually, and being willing to walk alongside one another in both joy and struggle.Barriers like isolation, busyness, and pride often keep us from this kind of belonging. Sometimes past hurts or fear of vulnerability make us hesitant to engage deeply. Yet, the call remains: to intentionally build habits of openness, to step out of our comfort zones, and to invest in authentic relationships. Small groups and shared meals are practical ways to begin, but the real transformation comes when we commit to living out these biblical “one anothers” with sincerity and devotion.When we live this way, the church becomes a place of warmth, growth, and witness—a family that draws others in by its love and unity. The challenge is to ask ourselves: Who will I intentionally connect with this week? Which “one another” will I devote myself to practicing? As we do, we reflect the heart of Christ and become the church God intended—a spiritual family where no one walks alone.

Christian berichtet von einem Gerichtsurteil. Demnach musste eine Schule in Bayern ein großes Jesus-Kreuz entfernen, das über einem Durchgang angebracht war, sodass die Schüler unter dem Kreuz durchgehen mussten. Zwei Schülerinnen hatten dagegen geklagt und Recht bekommen. Bundesinnenminister Dobrindt (CSU) stellte sofort klar, dass man weiterhin solche Kreuze aufhängen würde, trotz des Urteils. Auch andere bayerische Parteien äußerten sich ähnlich. Laut dem Bayerischen Gesetz über das Erziehungs- und Unterrichtswesen ist in Grund-, Mittel- und Förderschulen in jedem Klassenzimmer ein Kreuz anzubringen. Für Gymnasien gibt es eine solche Regelung nicht. Wir besprechen das Urteil und insbesondere die Reaktion von Innenminister Dobrindt.   Kommentare? Hier geht's zu YouTube...

The Curious Case of Tootsie LaFleche is a tale of deception, brutality, and an unsettling mystery that gripped the city of Regina in the mid-1950s. What began as confusion over a missed holiday gathering unraveled into a gruesome discovery that shocked the community and left investigators baffled for years.Michael "Mike" Todor was a well-known and respected member of Regina's Romanian Orthodox community. A 74-year-old retiree, he had invited friends and neighbors to his home for Orthodox Christmas in January 1954. However, when guests arrived at his modest house, they were met not by Todor, but by Tootsie LaFleche—his 36-year-old housekeeper and common-law wife. Tootsie seemed confused by the visitors' arrival, claiming Todor was out of town and hadn't mentioned any holiday plans.The guests left the residence with a sense of unease, and over the following months, more troubling details emerged. Todor, who was known for his consistency and reliability, stopped attending church services. Neighbors reported a foul smell coming from the house. The police were called to investigate but, after a brief search, found nothing unusual and left the property undisturbed.Months passed, and the odor grew worse. On April 15, 1955, neighbors once again contacted authorities, urging them to break into the residence. When officers entered the abandoned house, they discovered the source of the stench: behind a padlocked bedroom door lay the mummified remains of Michael Todor. His body was still on the bed, partially covered in blankets, with one arm raised as though warding off an attacker. His skull had been crushed by repeated blows from a blunt object. The floorboards were soaked with dried blood, and the walls were stained from the violent struggle.Police quickly arrested Tootsie LaFleche and Jacob Dyck, a 45-year-old boarder with a reputation for violent behavior. During interrogation, LaFleche gave conflicting statements about what had transpired. Eventually, she confessed that Dyck had killed Todor after a heated argument about money. According to Tootsie, Todor had stormed off to the bedroom after accusing Dyck of owing him a substantial sum. Dyck followed Todor and began beating him with a heavy object. Tootsie claimed she heard Todor repeatedly ask, "Why?" as Dyck continued the assault.When Tootsie entered the room, she said Todor was dead—his head bashed in, half his body hanging off the bed. Dyck, covered in blood, allegedly turned to her and said, "Keep quiet, or you're next." Terrified, Tootsie followed Dyck's instructions to padlock the bedroom door and stuff rags underneath it to contain the smell. They sprayed insecticide to kill the swarms of flies and continued living in the house for months as Todor's body decomposed just feet away.The subsequent trial was a legal circus. Tootsie's testimony changed repeatedly, often contradicting itself. She went from claiming Dyck killed Todor to saying she had no idea what happened. Dyck, meanwhile, maintained his innocence throughout. After four mistrials, the charges against Dyck were dropped due to lack of evidence. Tootsie was convicted of being an accessory to murder and served time in prison before being released. Shortly after her release, she was killed in a car accident under mysterious circumstances.The case of Michael Todor's murder remains officially unsolved. Was Tootsie telling the truth about Dyck's involvement, or did she commit the murder herself? Why did the police miss the body during their initial search? And what truly happened in that small Regina home during Orthodox Christmas in 1954?Join us as we investigate the bizarre and unsettling Curious Case of Tootsie LaFleche in our latest Patreon-exclusive episode of Unsolved Canadian Mysteries, available now on Spotify and YouTube.

Christian berichtet von einer erstaunlichen Gottheit der Chinesen, die bis heute verehrt wird. In grauer Vorzeit, als Himmel und Erde noch nicht geschieden waren, wurde ein außergewöhnliches Kind geboren: Huang-Di, der Gelbe Kaiser. Seine Mutter, Fubao, empfing ihn nicht auf natürliche Weise, sondern nachdem sie eine göttliche Lichterscheinung am Sternbild des Großen Wagens (Großer Bär) gesehen hatte. — Hat man hier einfach das Christentum beklaut?

In this explosive episode of Beyond The Claim, I sit down with Coach Alan Dyck (@coachalandyck) — the health and fitness coach who helped me go from stuck at 17% body fat to shredded at 10%. We break down:

Business owners are often told that growth is the ultimate measure of success. Revenue, units sold, hours worked—these metrics dominate boardrooms, coaching programs, and strategy sessions. But what happens when all that growth still leaves you feeling burned out, disconnected, and unfulfilled? What if the real target wasn't just a return on investment, but a return on life? Randy Dyck, a real estate veteran with more than 7,000 homes sold over the course of 30 years, knows that question all too well. After reaching the pinnacle of professional success, he found himself asking what it all really meant. The numbers were there. The accolades were there. But something was missing. That realization became a turning point, reshaping his entire outlook on business, leadership, and personal fulfillment. Return on life isn't a rejection of financial success—it's an expansion of it. It's a mindset shift that challenges entrepreneurs to pursue not just profit, but purpose. To build businesses that serve their lives, not consume them. For Randy, this means aligning his coaching and leadership around fulfillment, energy, and authenticity. Through his Scientific Scaling Systems, he now helps real estate professionals grow their businesses without sacrificing the things that matter most—time, relationships, health, and meaning. Throughout the conversation, it becomes clear that this shift isn't just philosophical—it's strategic. Entrepreneurs often believe they need to choose between success and satisfaction. But Randy argues that when you prioritize alignment, everything improves: clarity, performance, and yes—profit. When you operate in your zone of genius, when your goals are rooted in your deeper why, business growth becomes not just sustainable, but enjoyable. That shift starts with awareness. Randy shares how a personal exercise—what he calls an “energy audit”—can reveal where your time and effort are truly going. By tracking which tasks drain energy and which fuel it, entrepreneurs can begin to design their day, team, and business structure around what gives them life. From there, it becomes easier to delegate, automate, or eliminate the rest. This idea of self-alignment also ties into how Randy views leadership. It's not about declaring authority; it's about modeling curiosity, growth, and service. His leadership equation—learner, leverage, legacy—flips the typical script. The goal isn't just to scale a company, but to elevate others along the way. When leaders focus on being lifelong learners, sharing what they've learned, and helping others create their own legacy, they create businesses that thrive with purpose. In a time where burnout is rampant and “busy” is worn like a badge of honor, return on life offers an alternative—a model where success includes health, family, freedom, and fulfillment. Entrepreneurs don't have to sacrifice everything to grow. They simply need to redefine what growth means. If you're tired of chasing metrics that don't deliver meaning, if you're ready to design a business that energizes rather than drains you, Randy's perspective will resonate. Success is more than just scale—it's significance. And when you start building for both, the return on life is exponential. Watch the full episode on YouTube.
