Podcasts about The Eighth Day

How do we display our faith—not just in what we believe, but in how we live?In this teaching, we walk through Leviticus 23 and look at Yahweh's appointed times: Shabbat, Passover, Unleavened Bread, Firstfruits, Shavuot, Yom Teruah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, and the Eighth Day.This episode explores why these are not simply “Jewish holidays,” but Yahweh's holy convocations—days that teach His people how to remember creation, the Exodus, the work of Yeshua, the giving of the Ruach, the coming judgment, and the Kingdom to come.We also discuss how the appointed times become a way of life: preparing for Shabbat, removing leaven, celebrating the resurrection, counting to Shavuot, looking forward to Messiah's return, humbling ourselves on Yom Kippur, and rejoicing at Sukkot.If you are learning how to walk in Torah, understand the biblical feasts, or see how Leviticus 23 points to Yeshua and the apostles, this episode is a great overview.Topics covered:• Shabbat as the first appointed time• Passover and Yeshua as the Lamb• Unleavened Bread and coming out of Egypt• Firstfruits and the resurrection• Shavuot, Acts 2, and the Ruach• Yom Teruah and the return of Messiah• Yom Kippur and our need for a High Priest• Sukkot, the Millennium, and the world to come• Living faith as a lifestyle, not just a religion

Design Thinking and the Power of Anecdotes: A Conversation with Briony Hancock In the latest episode of Conversations in Depth, host Doug Keith talks with Bryony Hancock, Senior Strategist at Eighth Day, an independent strategy consultancy based in London. Bryony discusses her journey from industrial designer to innovation strategist, and how design thinking, imagination, and carefully crafted anecdotes can help qualitative researchers uncover deeper insights and inspire meaningful action. Originally trained in industrial design, Bryony began her career designing products before transitioning into strategy and innovation consulting. Today, she works with multidisciplinary teams to help organizations solve complex business challenges, redefine problems, and develop new products, services, and propositions rooted in qualitative research. Drawing from both design and strategy, she shares how creative exploration, thoughtful analysis, and the willingness to challenge assumptions can lead to stronger recommendations and more impactful research outcomes. In this conversation, Bryony explores how researchers can move beyond simply validating existing ideas to helping clients imagine new possibilities. She explains why memorable anecdotes often have greater impact than lengthy stories or isolated data points, how to identify the moments that can truly change the direction of a project, and practical ways to incorporate these powerful human examples into presentations and strategies that resonate with clients long after the research is complete. https://www.8th-day.com/about https://www.linkedin.com/in/bryony-hancock/ https://bryhancock.substack.com/?r=28svyk&utm_campaign=pub-share-checklist https://www.qrcaviews.org/ https://www.qrcaviews.org/features/podcasts/ https://www.qrca.org/  

A week after Easter, the disciples are still behind locked doors, and Thomas still hasn't seen the risen Christ. When Jesus finally appears, he doesn't rebuke Thomas. He shows up, offers his wounds, and then pronounces a blessing on everyone who will believe without seeing. What does it look like to trust God when the proof runs out?Seminarian Kevin Picklesimer preaches on John 20:19–31 and what he calls “eighth day faith” — the faith God invites us into after he's given us enough to step out on our own.Scripture: John 20:19–31Preacher: Mr. Kevin PicklesimerDate: April 12, 2026Second Sunday of Easter

The readings for this homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/040726.cfmFather Chris Alar, MIC, reflects on the profound significance of the Easter Octave, which culminates in Divine Mercy Sunday. This eighth day offers a unique grace to cleanse us completely, like newborns, removing not only sin but all temporal punishment. Reflecting on the Resurrection, Fr. Chris emphasizes St. Mary Magdalene's witness at the tomb — a woman's testimony, not often accepted in her time, confirms the truth of Christ's Resurrection. The primacy of St. Peter is highlighted as St. John, despite his love for Jesus, defers to Peter's office at the tomb and lets Peter enter first. Mary's calm encounter with the angel demonstrates her deep grief and focus on Christ. The timing of visits to the tomb, Jesus' burial with myrrh, and the folded linen reveal the Resurrection's reality beyond theft or fabrication. Father Chris explains why Jesus instructed Mary Magdalene not to hold on to him, underscoring the mission to share the Good News. Through the Eucharist and the coming of the Holy Spirit, Christ remains present to us even today, preparing us to receive Divine Mercy Sunday's cleansing grace.

The readings for this homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/040526.cfmEaster Sunday is the culmination of salvation history, yet the liturgical celebration extends beyond a single day. As Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, explains, the Easter Octave is not merely a week of celebration but a single liturgical day lasting eight days. While many believe the feast ends on Sunday, the Church teaches that every day of the Octave is a solemnity. This period connects Easter Sunday directly to Divine Mercy Sunday, forming a unified mystery of grace. Father Chris emphasizes that we are at the top of the pyramid of the liturgical year, where the seven days of the Octave symbolize our earthly pilgrimage, and the eighth day represents eternity.On the first day, Jesus opened the door to Heaven, which had been blocked since the Fall. However, an open door is insufficient if we do not walk through it. The eighth day symbolizes the moment we enter eternity. To walk through this door, we must be dressed in a white wedding garment, spotless and pure. Father Chris uses the analogy of a wedding feast where Christ is the Bridegroom and the Church is the Bride. If the bride arrives with a stained garment, she is not prepared. The stains on our soul are sin and the temporal punishment due to sin. While Confession removes the guilt of sin, penance addresses the consequences.On Divine Mercy Sunday, Jesus promises a unique grace. If we go to Confession and receive Holy Communion on this day, we receive the complete forgiveness of not only all sins but all punishment due to sin. Father Chris describes this as a second Baptism, where the soul is wiped clean and returns to the purity of original Baptism. This fulfills the Jewish Day of Atonement, where the High Priest entered the Holy of Holies. Now, the Precious Blood is applied to our souls, cleansing us entirely. This grace is available to those who prepare their hearts between Easter and the eighth day. ★ Support this podcast ★

What happens when the "uninterrupted" cycle of death is finally broken? In this week's meditation, we look at Luke 24:1-12 and the women's experience at the empty tomb.We often feel the "grind" of the weekly cycle and the sobering reality that the cycle eventually stops for us all. However, through the Old Testament type of the eighth day, we find a promise that God would break into our rhythm. Join us as we celebrate the victory of the Lord Jesus Christ over the grave and the hope we have as we live in the reality of the New Creation.

Leviticus 9:1 On the eighth day, the resurrection of Jesus Christ, God created a new beginning for all who are his. The post The Eighth Day appeared first on Grace Presbyterian Church (PCA).

"The Eighth Day" is the day "that God will appear" to the nation. It is purported to be the day in which the Tabernacle/Mishkan reaches its climax - God's fire will descend to the nation.But we reach into the silent gaps in this story through Midrash and Rashi and speak of the hidden drama in this narrative; one of apprehension, guilt and brotherhood.

In today's God Sighting, Chris Nolan, Parish Outreach Coordinator at St. Mark's in City Heights, shares a brief reflection on a moment when God's presence became visible in an unexpected way. As Christ's light stretches into these days, may you notice how God meets you right where you are.To learn more about St. Mark's, visit: https://stmarks-cityheights.org/Faith to Go is a ministry of The Episcopal Diocese of San Diego.

On this Eighth Day of Christmas, we celebrate the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God and reflect on a powerful question: What have you heard? What have you seen? Drawing from today's Gospel (Luke 2:16–21), Father Jonathan Meyer invites us to pause and reflect on how God has spoken to us this Christmas season—through Scripture, prayer, the Eucharist, our neighbors, and even the quiet moments of our hearts. Mary pondered all that she heard and saw. Today, we're invited to do the same. Take time for silence. Write it down. Let God show you how He is moving in your life. ✨ A holy day of obligation—and a holy day of opportunity.

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with Dr. Antony Nakhla, board-certified dermatologic surgeon and founder of Eighth Day, to explore how regenerative medicine is reshaping modern skincare. Known for bringing reconstructive precision to beauty, Dr. Nakhla shares how his background in Mohs micrographic surgery inspired a mission to apply real wound-healing science to everyday skincare — helping people look like the best version of themselves, not someone else.At the heart of Eighth Day is its groundbreaking Peptide-Rich Plasma® technology — a clinically engineered blend of bioidentical peptides, growth factors, and amino acids that mimic the body's natural healing processes. “We speak the language of skin,” says Nakhla, describing how the brand's formulas communicate directly with skin cells to restore balance, resilience, and structure from within.Dr. Nakhla also breaks down why delivery systems — not just ingredients — are the future of skincare. With advanced multi-weight hyaluronic acids and actives like L-ornithine that preserve fat cells and dermal architecture, Eighth Day targets true regeneration at the cellular level.Rejecting beauty buzzwords, Dr. Nakhla calls for a return to data-driven, biologically intelligent skincare, grounded in clinical validation, prevention, and precision. “Luxury isn't packaging,” he says. “It's proof.”Tune in to hear how Eighth Day is redefining what anti-aging means — merging medicine, science, and artistry to create a new era of bio-intelligent beauty.Learn more and shop Eighth Day on their website and social media!CHAPTERS:0:02 – Introduction & Guest Welcome0:56 – From Mohs Surgery to Regenerative Beauty2:02 – The Philosophy: Restoration Over Alteration4:02 – Fundamentals of Wound Healing & Regeneration7:00 – The Science Behind Peptide-Rich Plasma™10:37 – Delivery Systems & Dermal Penetration13:32 – Multi-Layer Skin Health & Fat Cell Longevity16:00 – Ingredient Synergy & Clinical Formulation23:37 – Prevention, Retinoids & The Future of Skin HealthPlease fill out this survey to give us feedback on the show!Don't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!

By Andy Wagner - This message encourages us to maintain the spiritual zeal and strength gained during the Feast of Tabernacles and Eighth Day throughout the coming months. The central reminder is that enduring faith and closeness to God — not self-reliance — will enable us to remain steadfast and ready to "be there

SUKKOTSukkot is a seven-day festival that follows five days after Yom Kippur. It was to be observed by “living” in “booths,” or the “sukkah,” which served to remind the Jewish people of the forty years they wandered in the wilderness, when the nation came out of Egypt, in route to the Land of Promise. They dwelt in temporary structures, and the Lord Himself dwelt in the Tabernacle. Because the “sukkah” was a weak structure, it symbolized the fragility of their own lives, and the loss of Israel's national aspirations. It also served to remind the nation of their future hope of restoration and glory when Messiah returns and establishes the Messianic Kingdom (Amos 9:11).According to Leviticus 23:33-43, four plants were to be used in the worship of the Lord on this occasion. First, is the פְּרִי עֵץ הָדָר “fruit of goodly trees,” or the etrog, which is a citrus-type fruit much like an extra-large lemon. Second, is the כַּפֹּת תְּמָרִים “branches of palm-trees,” known as the lulav. Third, is the עֱנַף עֵץ-עָבֹת “boughs of thick trees,” also called the hadass, the branch of a myrtle tree. Fourth, is the עַרְבֵי-נָחַל “willows of the brook,” referring to the aravah, the willow branch. It ought not surprise us then that on Sukkot, Yeshua, himself, would make certain statements regarding his Messiahship in connection with these two most important ceremonies. During the water pouring ceremony, which symbolized Israel's prayer for rain and the outpouring of the Spirit of God upon the nation, Yeshua said, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink. Whoever believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from his innermost being” (John 7:37-38). In connection with the “lighting of the lampstands” ceremony, Yeshua proclaimed on Sukkot, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” (John 8:12). Prophetically, Sukkot will have its fulfillment during the Messianic kingdom. While the first four festivals were all prophetically fulfilled by the first coming of Messiah, so the latter three festivals will be fulfilled by the second coming of Messiah. Zechariah foretells, “Then the survivors from all the nations that have attacked Jerusalem, will go up year after year to worship the King, the Lord Almighty, and to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles” (Zechariah 14:16).SIMCHAT TORAHSimchat Torah is a Jewish holiday that celebrates and marks the conclusion of the annual cycle of public Torah readings, and the beginning of a new cycle. Simchat Torah is a component of the Biblical Jewish holiday of Shemini Atzeret ("Eighth Day of Assembly"), which follows immediately after the festival of Sukkot in the month of Tishrei (occurring in September or October on the Gregorian calendar).YouTube: https://youtu.be/AnJGKyLWYBISend us a text

One of the most exciting discoveries in my life was when I learned that the festivals of the Bible actually contained an outline of God's plan—an outline much more complex than I had at first imagined. They are loaded with illustrations, with analogies, with symbols and types of the plan of salvation, the life and work of Jesus Christ, of end-time events culminating in the Kingdom of God...and even events beyond the end of this world.But there is a curious anomaly in this festival that we observe here today, and at least a couple of different angles on trying to understand it. There are theories that have been advanced through the years that we have observed it, and we need to talk about it.

By Rodrick Foster - Having hope for the future helps us to let go of the past. Look forward to the time that the Eighth Day pictures, a day when all who have ever lived will have the opportunity to be forgiven and have their sins covered by the blood of Christ. This is our greatest hope: that all mankind will be given

By William Paz - We have an enormous future with God to look forward to. An eternity with God.

By Jim Tuck - Do you know what this Eighth Day pictures in God's great master plan of salvation? The picture of what God plans for all humanity is revealed through the feasts of God, and the Eternal does not desire to see anyone perish, but all to have and opportunity to be saved. The Eighth Day has a tremendous

How do we hold on to hope when life is filled with pain and disappointment? What role can prayer play in our suffering as we learn to cling to hope?Sally Breedlove and Willa Kane became friends through a shared commitment to prayer during a season marked by uncertainty. In 2020, as the world faced the upheaval of the COVID-19 pandemic, they felt led to invite others into daily rhythms of prayer—and thus, Eighth Day Prayers was born. The name "Eighth Day" reflects the day of Jesus' resurrection, symbolizing the invitation to live into the hope of Christ. What began as a simple practice during a global crisis grew into a ministry that continues through their three-book series, **Eighth Day Prayers**, which follows the liturgical calendar and invites readers into a life of rhythmic, intentional prayer.Through their personal journeys of suffering—including the loss of a grandchild, the death of a parent by suicide, significant health diagnoses, and challenges in business—Sally and Willa have found prayer to be a steadying force, grounding them in hope and anchoring their walk with Jesus.In this episode, Davey sits down with Sally and Willa to discuss the simplicity and depth of prayer, how it sustains us in seasons of deep pain, and why it remains a vital part of our spiritual formation.If you've ever wrestled with the tension between hope and heartbreak, this conversation offers encouragement and perspective, reminding us that God can hold our hardest emotions and invites us into an honest, ongoing dialogue with Him through prayer.

Preaching: Ben ConachanIn Eastertide, we ponder the mystery of resurrection. Like the flowers bursting out again in spring, like the Spirit hovering over chaos and nurturing creation, like the Christ rising from the tomb on the third day—even so, we often bear witness to new, fruitful ways of living coming to life out of the darkest places. In this series, we will explore the way our disintegrated and disregulated attempts to cope with life, can become invitations into wise, honest, human ways of flourishing.Pearl Church exists to express a sacred story and to extend a common table that animate life by love. A primary expression of our sacred story is the weekly sermon.

As the Lenten season begins, we're invited into a rhythm of reflection, longing, and anticipation. But for many of us, Lent can feel like another spiritual obligation—a practice we're supposed to get right. What if, instead of striving, Lent was about making space for God's presence and living in the reality of resurrection hope?In this episode of the Simply Wholehearted Podcast, Sally Breedlove and Willa Kane join me for a rich conversation about what it means to live as an Eighth Day person—someone who is grounded in the truth of Christ's resurrection while still walking through the realities of suffering, longing, and hope.Episode Highlights:Why Lent is more about longing than legalism.How “Scripture-soaked prayer” can shape our faith.The meaning of the “8th day” and how it transforms our daily lives.The power of community and prayer in seasons of darkness.Embracing resurrection hope even when life feels unfinished.Resources Mentioned:Eighth Day Prayers Daily Mercy for Lent and Eastertide Eighth Day Prayers Daily Hope for Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany Eighth Day Prayers Daily Joy for Ordinary Times Learn more about Willa and Sally, their books, and their ministry.RESOURCES FOR YOU:Wholehearted Enneagram Coachinghttps://bit.ly/SWcoachingcollectiveEnnea-what?

“On the eighth day of Christmas my true love gave to me: Eight Maids a Milking ..." who were the least of the servants in a home. They symbolize Christ's love for the least of us, and His faithfulness to those who don't deserve it. The eight maids stand for the Beatitudes or blessings listed in Matthew.  Prayer: Jesus, thank you for standing by us when we least deserve it…we remember today that blessed are the poor in spirit, blessed are those who mourn, blessed are the meek, blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, blessed are the merciful, blessed are the pure in heart, blessed are the peacemakers, blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake….let us open our lives to Your blessings!
