Together, with Fr. Mike, we examine the mysteries of Jesus' Baptism and temptation in the wilderness. Fr. Mike unpacks how Jesus' Baptism is yet another Epiphany or manifestation of Christ as Messiah. We also explore Christ's acceptance of his mission as God's suffering servant. Fr. Mike emphasizes that Jesus' temptations in the desert mirror the temptations of Adam in the garden, but, unlike Adam, Jesus does not succumb to these temptations. He remains faithful to the Father. Through this obedience to the Divine Will, he conquers the Devil, and in our own obedience, we are participating in this victory. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 535-540.

Fr. Mike explores the mystery of Jesus' infancy and hidden life. We first take a look at Jesus' Baptism, circumcision, and the Epiphany. Fr. Mike discusses that Jesus' circumcision shows us that salvation comes from the Jews. The Epiphany shows us that salvation does not stop there, it extends to all of us. Later, we examine Jesus' hidden life. Fr. Mike emphasizes the importance of Jesus' obedience to not just his Father in Heaven, but to his earthly father and mother as well, and how we can imitate that obedience.

Send a textWholehearted Storywork BONUS Episode (part 5)Before we move into our Type-specific series, there's one more pattern we need to talk about, a place where many women get stuck BEFORE they ever step into their Hero moment.In this bonus episode of the Wholehearted Storywork series, Amy explores the Sidekick stuck point, not as a lesser role, but as a protective pattern in which we use service, support, and "being helpful" to avoid claiming our own agency and stepping into our own story.This conversation gently names how "I'm just here to help" can become a hiding place rather than a calling, and why recognizing this pattern is essential before you can truly awaken Hero energy.You'll explore:Why the Sidekick pattern often forms before the Hero awakening, not after.How serving others can become a way to avoid your own calling.The difference between faithful service and hiding behind helpfulness.When Sidekick energy is a stuck point versus when it's a mature, faithful season.Why this pattern is especially common among Christian women.How Type Nine energy illustrates this stuck point (and why we're starting there next month).This episode isn't about stopping your service or diminishing the value of supporting others.It's about asking: Am I serving from wholeness, or am I serving to stay safe?If you've ever felt invisible while being incredibly useful, if you've championed everyone else's dreams while dismissing your own, or if the idea of pursuing your own calling feels selfish, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are.Sometimes the most courageous act is stepping out of the wings and into your own story.Support the showRESOURCES FOR YOU: Join the Waitlist for 1:1 Coaching with Amy Wicks https://www.simplywholehearted.com/callamywicks Not sure about your Enneagram Type?

In this episode of the Salvation series, Patrick and Jonah continue exploring what the word actually means and why it still matters.Beginning with the liturgical movement from Advent to Epiphany, they enter the Trinity Epistle and reflect on the “Son of Man” as more than an individual figure. Salvation emerges as a rescue not only from false light and unworthy craving, but from egotism and isolation — the structural loneliness of the self.Through Genesis, John's Gospel, and Second Temple traditions, they consider the possibility that salvation is not primarily about exclusion or escape, but about being gathered into a shared humanity and becoming “sons of light.”Support the showThe Light in Every Thing is a podcast of The Seminary of The Christian Community in North America.

Dave (still shaking off a cold, snowed in on Long Island) pays tribute to Larry (“Crosstalk Larry”) — a beloved meeting  guy who recently passed away. Larry was a kind, positive soul who yelled “keep coming!” at every meeting's end, welcomed newcomers, collected the basket for personal contact, showed up in hospitals and court, attended three DopeyCons and the Margaret Cho show, and lost his son to murder years ago. Dave reflects on missing Larry's kind heart and vows to try to be kinder. Lots of Spotify Bob talk! The main talk is a powerful, emotional return with Kevin Jack McEnroe (author, former nightlife figure, son of Tatum O'Neal). Kevin opens up about his family's addiction legacy: Tatum's lifelong struggles (childhood coke from Ryan O'Neill, celebrity enabling, stroke/coma in 2020), Ryan's estrangement, Kevin's own heroin/coke/vodka spiral, liver failure, treatment, Suboxone, and the infamous Christmas visit where Tatum smoked weed in the hotel room while Kevin was newly sober. He shares the deck-the-halls-with-mom's-Suboxone story, codependency/survivor guilt, boundary-setting (“I can't keep convincing you to live”), and how the stroke/facility humility saved her life. Kevin reflects on being a bad liar, ring secrecy with Fern, Sergio the blind heroin dealer, and how recovery brought peace, blended-family wedding moments, and hope.  All that and MORE! on a brand new Wednesday episode of that good old Dopey Snow - i mean show.

"Whatever it is you want most in the world right now is what you need to give." This simple but profound realization, sparked during a silent meditation retreat, serves as the heartbeat for a movement dedicated to reclaiming our shared humanity. In a world optimized for digital efficiency, the true currency of a meaningful life remains the "un-scalable" power of human connection. In this episode of Gratitude Through Hard Times, Chris Schembra sits down with Aaron Hurst, the visionary CEO of the US Chamber of Connection and founder of the Taproot Foundation. While Aaron is a titan of the pro bono world, having catalyzed billions of dollars in social impact, this conversation strips away the professional accolades to explore the raw, essential need for friendship and community. Aaron shares a vulnerable look at his own journey—from the "epiphany of 50" to navigating the profound grief of losing his mother, Bonnie. Together, Chris and Aaron dismantle the myth that technology can replace presence, arguing that the "low barrier to laughter" and the intentional act of welcoming others are the only real antidotes to our modern epidemic of isolation. 10 Memorable Quotes: "Whatever it is you want most in the world right now is what you need to give." "Humanity is what binds us. It's what we create together." "I focus on connection, not conversion." "The act of welcoming is a fundamental human right." "Friendship isn't a luxury; it's the infrastructure of a healthy society." "We have traded meaningful friction for frictionless isolation." "You can't scale belonging without shrinking the room." "My mother had a 'low barrier to laughter,' and that was her greatest gift to the world." "The modern world is designed for capital, not for people." 10 Key Takeaways: The Reciprocity of Need: Aaron's breakthrough realization that if you lack friendship, you must become a friend; if you lack grace, you must extend it. The 1099 Connection Challenge: Much like the real estate world, building community in a "gig" economy requires creating environments where people choose to belong. The "Epiphany of 50": A deep dive into Aaron's personal turning point and how hitting a milestone age forced a re-evaluation of what "success" actually looks like. Legacy of Service: Exploring Aaron's family roots—from his grandfather's blueprint for the Peace Corps to his mother's spirit of care—and how legacy shapes our mission. Diffusion of Innovation in Social Change: Why focusing on the "initiators" (the 15-20% who naturally build community) is more effective than trying to convert the cynical. Low Barrier to Laughter (LBL): The importance of humor and play as tools for resilience, inspired by the life and memory of Bonnie Hurst. Welcoming as a Design Principle: The philosophy behind the US Chamber of Connection—making "welcoming" a measurable and intentional act in every organization. The Myth of Digital Community: Why a Zoom call can never replace the "meaningful friction" of physical presence and shared meals. The Grief of Losing a North Star: Aaron reflects on the "hard time" of losing his mother and how her values continue to guide his work today. Human-Centric Infrastructure: A call to action for leaders to prioritize social health over mere capital accumulation to ensure a sustainable future for the next generation. About our Guest: Aaron Hurst, CEO & Founder Aaron Hurst is a social entrepreneur, author, and the visionary leader behind the US Chamber of Connection. As the founder of the Taproot Foundation, he is credited with creating the $15 billion pro bono service market, engaging tens of thousands of skilled volunteers to help nonprofits thrive. Aaron's work is deeply influenced by his family's legacy in the Peace Corps and the Aspen Institute, driving his lifelong commitment to civic infrastructure. A sought-after speaker and executive coach, Aaron is the author of The Purpose Economy. He resides in a world where he continues to advocate for the power of "earned connection" and the vital necessity of prioritizing humanity in the modern workplace. He is a devoted advocate for the "initiators" of the world, helping them build the bridges that keep us all connected.

One of the best known quotes about preaching has been attributed to theologian, Karl Barth. Preachers must preach with the Bible in one hand and the newspaper in the other. What to do when the newspaper seems to get heavier and heavier with every passing day? As the U.S. seems to descend further and further into a lawless, violent police state, terrorizing and killing its own citizens, ripping apart its families, and wreaking genocidal and military havoc around the world. On this first Sunday of Epiphany, Pastor Megan notices some things from the story of the Magi in Matthew 2: noncooperation with ill-intentioned and violent kings; God is a refugee. And then notices a couple of things from the water to wine story of the wedding at Cana from John 2: Jesus resists taking action but comes to realize that his time has indeed come to act; Jesus needs the servants as his human companions and co-creators of the miracle the world needs. And she wonders how these Epiphany stories from our Bible might read our current newspapers…?Sermon begins at minute marker 2:20John 2.1-11Resources:BibleWorm podcast: Episode 721 - Water into Wine, Amy Robertson and Robert Williamson, Jr.Karl Barth (1886-1968), Swiss-German Christian theologian. “[Barth] is considered…to be one of the greatest thinkers within the history of the Christian tradition. Barth gave new impulses to Protestant theology during a critical phase, reshaping it fundamentally toward a systematic theology that had to cope with the grim realities of the 20th century. As the principal author of “The Barmen Declaration,” he was the intellectual leader of the German Confessing Church, the Protestant group that resisted the Third Reich.”Matthew 2: story of the Magi & the holy family's flight into EgyptEzekiel 37: story of the valley of dry bones, and God instructing Ezekiel to prophesy to the four winds and then to prophesy to the bonesPrayer: Jesus, amplify the good; disrupt the plans of the evil; show me my place; Amen.Image: [As preachers,] “we must hold the Bible in one hand and the newspaper in the other.” Quote / sentiment famously attributed to theologian, Karl Barth.

Send a textWholehearted Storywork Part 4 After you've named the pain, let go of control, and stepped into agency, a question emerges: How do I sustain this?In this final episode of the Wholehearted Storywork series, Amy explores the Guide role, not as someone who has arrived or finished their own story, but as someone who has stayed with their healing long enough to walk alongside others without needing to control the outcome.This conversation reframes what it means to guide and be guided, and why formation is a lifelong journey that requires wisdom, presence, and ongoing support.You'll explore: What a Guide is (and isn't) in wholehearted formation.Why Guides still need guidance and haven't "graduated" from their own healing.How Hero energy becomes sustainable through wisdom over time. The Holy Spirit as the true Guide in your life.Why you don't have to have it all together to walk with othersThis episode isn't about becoming an authority or arriving at spiritual maturity.It's about learning how to stay present with your own story so you can offer that same presence to others.If you've been on this wholehearted journey and are wondering what comes next, or if you've realized that even good changes need support to last, this conversation offers a vision of formation that doesn't end but deepens.Guides don't guide because they're finished; they guide because they've learned how to stay.Support the showRESOURCES FOR YOU: Join the Waitlist for 1:1 Coaching with Amy Wicks https://www.simplywholehearted.com/callamywicks Not sure about your Enneagram Type?

In this sermon we look at the story of Jesus' transfiguration with the help of Rowan Williams and Willie James Jennings, who help us to consider (1) why we read this story on the last Sunday or Epiphany, and (2) how this scene is meant to deepen our hope in Jesus. May we encounter the crucified Christ raised from the dead in these words.

O Vision FairTHE COLLECT OF THE DAYO God, who before the passion of your only begotten Son revealed his glory upon the holy mountain: Grant to us that we, beholding by faith the light of his countenance, may be strengthened to bear our cross, and be changed into his likeness from glory to glory; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.FIRST READING Exodus 24:12-18Reader A reading from the Book of Exodus.The Lord said to Moses, “Come up to me on the mountain, and wait there; and I will give you the tablets of stone, with the law and the commandment, which I have written for their instruction.” So Moses set out with his assistant Joshua, and Moses went up into the mountain of God. To the elders he had said, “Wait here for us, until we come to you again; for Aaron and Hur are with you; whoever has a dispute may go to them.”Then Moses went up on the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain. The glory of the Lord settled on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days; on the seventh day he called to Moses out of the cloud. Now the appearance of the glory of the Lord was like a devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the sight of the people of Israel. Moses entered the cloud, and went up on the mountain. Moses was on the mountain for forty days and forty nights.ReaderThe Word of the Lord.PeopleThanks be to God.PSALM Psalm 99 Dominus regnavit1 The Lord is King;let the people tremble; *he is enthroned upon the cherubim;let the earth shake.2 The Lord is great in Zion; *he is high above all peoples.3 Let them confess his Name, which is great and awesome; *he is the Holy One.4 "O mighty King, lover of justice,you have established equity; *you have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob."5 Proclaim the greatness of the Lord our Godand fall down before his footstool; *he is the Holy One.6 Moses and Aaron among his priests,and Samuel among those who call upon his Name, *they called upon the Lord, and he answered them.7 He spoke to them out of the pillar of cloud; *they kept his testimonies and the decree that he gave them.8 O Lord our God, you answered them indeed; *you were a God who forgave them,yet punished them for their evil deeds.9 Proclaim the greatness of the Lord our Godand worship him upon his holy hill; *for the Lord our God is the Holy One.SECOND READING 2 Peter 1:16-21Reader A Reading from the second letter of Peter.We did not follow cleverly devised myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of his majesty. For he received honor and glory from God the Father when that voice was conveyed to him by the Majestic Glory, saying, “This is my Son, my Beloved, with whom I am well pleased.”

Monday February 16, 2026Last Week After EpiphanyToday's Episode As we come to the final week after Epiphany, today's readings draw our eyes to the kind of wisdom and humility that prepares us to see Christ clearly.In Proverbs 27:1-6, 10-12 we are reminded of the value of faithful friendship, wise foresight, and steady character. True wisdom is not loud or reactive—it is rooted, discerning, and unwilling to be stirred into chaos.In Philippians 2:1–13, Paul calls believers to unity shaped by humility, pointing us to Christ Himself—who emptied Himself, took the form of a servant, and humbled Himself to the point of death. Because of that obedience, God highly exalted Him. We are invited to reflect that same self-giving mind as we “work out” what God is already working within us.And in John 18:28–38, Jesus stands before Pilate—calm, composed, and unwavering. The true King faces political power without anxiety. When Pilate asks, “What is truth?” he is staring Truth in the face.This episode invites us to embrace humble strength—choosing wisdom over impulse, servanthood over self-assertion, and allegiance to the King whose kingdom is not of this world.

On this last Sunday of Epiphany, we stand with the disciples on the mountain of the Transfiguration as Jesus reveals his glory before leading us toward Lent and Calvary. On the mountain, he shows us his divinity, reveals our destiny, and points to his departure—the new and final Exodus that brings salvation from sin and death. May our lives mirror this ascent, as we are transfigured into his image.

The Rev. Mary Cat Young

Preaching: Mike RothToday is Transfiguration Sunday. This special feast commemorates the miraculous change in Jesus' appearance when he unveiled his glory on the Mount of Transfiguration. As the fulfillment of Epiphany's longing, the transfiguration reveals not only the glory of Jesus' way of life in the world, but it also casts vision for all that we can become, in the midst of what we are. 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. If our sermons inspire you to ponder the sacred, to consider the mystery and love of God, and to live bountifully, would you consider supporting our work?

Today is day 46 and we are on the section on the First Article of the Apostles' Creed on God the Father Almighty. Today we are on the third line: “Creator of Heaven and Earth” and studying question 46. 46. If God created the world good, why do we sin? Adam and Eve rebelled against God, thus bringing upon all humanity pain, toil, alienation from God and each other, and death. I have inherited this fallen and corrupted human nature; consequently, I too sin and fall short of God's glory. (Genesis 3:16–4:26; Psalm 51:3–5; Romans 3:23; 5:12; 7:14–25) We will conclude today with The Collect for The Fourth Sunday of Epiphany found on page 602 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

Matthew 17:1-9   Six days later, Jesus took with him Peter and James and his brother John and led them up a high mountain, by themselves. And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his clothes became dazzling white. Suddenly there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, talking with him. Then Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here; if you wish, I will make three dwellings here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” While he was still speaking, suddenly a bright cloud overshadowed them, and from the cloud a voice said, “This is my Son, the Beloved; with him I am well pleased; listen to him!” When the disciples heard this, they fell to the ground and were overcome by fear. But Jesus came and touched them, saying, “Get up and do not be afraid.” And when they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus himself alone. As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus ordered them, “Tell no one about the vision until after the Son of Man has been raised from the dead.”
