"At the time of the holy Patriarch Thomas I of Constantinople (607-610), the relics of some unknown holy Martyrs were discovered buried in the district of Eugenius. As soon as the Patriarch exposed them for the veneration of the people who gathered from all over the city, numerous healings took place.   "Many years had gone by when a clergyman named Nicolas, who worked as a book copyist, learnt by divine revelation that among these anonymous relics were those of Saint Paul's disciples, the holy apostles Andronicus and Junia, who are mentioned in the Epistle to the Romans (16:7). The Emperor Andronicus I (1183-5) built a beautiful church at the place where thise relics were venerated." (Synaxarion)

The Principal of His Hill Bible School, Jon Forrest joins Kelly in this episode, sharing a devotion from the Epistle to the Philippians and asking the question: What is your attitude?The right attitude of the believer should reflect the attitude of Jesus Christ. What marked His life was a consistent willingness for the Father to have His way — and the result was always what was best for others.Is your life one of serving others or yourself? Does your attitude agree with Christ's, who emptied Himself and took the form of a servant?www.instagram.com/thehishillpodcast/www.hishill.orgkelly@hishill.org

The Christian experience is the embrace of the wild extremes of the emotional spectrum.Monday • 2/16/2026 •Monday of Last Epiphany, Year TwoThis morning's Scriptures are: Psalm 25; Proverbs 27:1–5,10–12; Philippians 2:1–13; John 18:15–18,25–27 This morning's Canticles are: following the OT reading, Canticle 9 (“The First Song of Isaiah,” Isaiah 12:2–6, BCP, p. 86); following the Epistle reading, Canticle 19 (“The Song of the Redeemed,” Revelation 15:3–4, BCP, p. 94)

In this powerful message from the “Mute” series, we tackle a struggle everyone understands—distractions that pull us away from what matters most. So many of us start with good intentions, but somewhere along the way we lose focus. Inspired by Epistle to the Hebrews 12:1–2, this sermon challenges us to fix our eyes on Jesus and stop letting the noise of life steal our peace, purpose, and spiritual growth.You'll be encouraged to recognize what's been distracting you, count the real cost, and take simple, practical steps to refocus—whether that's building better habits, asking honest daily questions, or muting things that compete for your attention. It's a clear call to live with intention, grow closer to Christ, and step into the life God has for you.

We're kicking off a brand-new series called We've Got Issues — and no, it's not about how your family is worse than everyone else's. It's about being human.Every marriage. Every parent. Every home. We all have issues. But most of what we call “family problems” are really heart problems. Not just communication issues. Not just schedule conflicts. Not just personality differences.At the root? Sin.In this message, we walk through Epistle to the Romans 3:9–12 and uncover a hard but freeing truth: we don't have occasional sin problems — we have a sin nature. And until we name the real issue, we'll keep chasing the wrong solutions. This isn't about behavior modification. t's about heart transformation. If you name the wrong problem, you'll chase the wrong solution. But where sin is named, grace can finally do its work.Healed families start with honest hearts.

Join us as we study through the Epistle to the Galatians in our sermon series, "The Gospel of Grace."In today's podcast, we will be focusing on Galatians 4:8-11.If you have any questions or would like to leave a comment, please feel free to email us at info@ravenswoodbaptist.org

In Week 2 of our No Other Gospel series, Pastor Sean Gasperetti walks through Epistle to the Galatians 1:11–24 and asks the question: Do you believe the Gospel can change someone's life? Looking at the radical transformation of the Apostle Paul—from persecutor to preacher—we're reminded that God loves to reveal His heart to the people you'd least expect, and that private formation leads to public fruitfulness. If God can change Paul, He can change anyone—not to elevate us, but to magnify Him.

QUOTES FOR REFLECTION “Christ pervades all Scripture, as salt all waters of the sea, as light the brightest day, as fragrance the garden of choice flowers.”~Henry Law (1797-1884), Cambridge-educated Dean of Gloucester in Christ is All “The righteousness of God is God's righteous initiative in putting sinners right with himself, by bestowing on them a righteousness which is not their own but his. The righteousness of God is God's just justification of the unjust, his righteous way of pronouncing the unrighteous righteous, in which he both demonstrates his righteousness and gives His righteousness to us.” ~John Stott (1921-2011), British Anglican pastor and theologian “The righteousness of God is not that by which God is righteous but that with which he clothes man when he justifies the ungodly”~ Augustine (354-430), North African church leader, explaining Paul's understanding of “righteousness” in the Letter to Romans (A Treatise on the Spirit and the Letter) “God allowed his Son to suffer as if a condemned sinner, so that we might be delivered from the penalty of our sins. This is God's righteousness, that we are not justified by works…but by grace, in which case all our sin is removed.”~John Chrysostom (c. 347-407), Homilies on the Epistles of Paul to the Corinthians “He Himself took on Him the burden of our iniquities, He gave His own Son as a ransom for us, the holy One for transgressors, the blameless One for the wicked, the righteous One for the unrighteous, the incorruptible One for the corruptible, the immortal One for them that are mortal. For what other thing was capable of covering our sins than His righteousness? By what other one was it possible that we, the wicked and ungodly, could be justified, than by the only Son of God? O sweet exchange! O unsearchable operation! O benefits surpassing all expectation! that the wickedness of many should be hid in a single righteous One, and that the righteousness of One should justify many transgressors!”~The Epistle to Diognetus (c. 150AD) 9:2-5. “The operation of the Church is entirely set up for the sinner; which creates much misunderstanding among the smug.” “Don't expect faith to clear things up for you. It is trust, not certainty.”~Flannery O'Connor (1925-1964), American authorSERMON PASSAGERomans 1:14-17 (ESV)Romans 1 14 I am under obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish. 15 So I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome. 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.” Romans 321 But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it— 22 the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction: 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 25 whom God put forward as a propitiation by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God's righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins. 26 It was to show his righteousness at the present time, so that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. Romans 4 5 And to the one who does not work but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness.

More than a sterile greeting in which he simply identified himself and his original readers, Paul's salutation provides an important window into his perspective, concerns and intentions in penning this epistle. This message seeks to open up that window and lay a solid foundation for interpreting the balance of this marvelous and crucial important letter.

Fr. Matthias Shehad explores the Epistle to Philemon, one of St. Paul's prison letters, offering detailed commentary on its themes and historical context. He explains how St. Paul, writing from prison, appeals to Philemon to forgive and accept Onesimus, a runaway slave who became a Christian and now serves alongside Paul. Fr. Matthias highlights the spiritual transformation that abolishes social distinctions, emphasizing Christian brotherhood over slavery. The talk addresses the cultural and legal realities of the time, St. Paul's pastoral wisdom in his appeal, and the significance of voluntary forgiveness. It also reflects on the use of gifts in the church community, the role of intercession, and how God can bring good even from difficult situations. This comprehensive study sheds light on forgiveness, Christian service, and the enduring impact of faith in challenging circumstances.

In this Bible study, Fr. Matthias Shehad continues exploring the themes of joy and perseverance in Saint Paul's Epistle to the Philippians. He emphasizes the importance of spiritual training through consistent practice of faith rather than seeking new teachings. Fr. Matthias explains Paul's warning against Judaizers who insisted on physical circumcision, contrasting it with the true righteousness that comes through faith in Christ. He reflects on Paul's message of counting worldly gains as loss to attain true knowledge of Christ, highlighting the necessity of embracing suffering and carrying the cross as part of Christian discipleship. Fr. Matthias also discusses the process of spiritual growth, the power of the Resurrection experienced inwardly, and urges believers to press toward the heavenly goal with persistence, using Paul and the saints as examples to follow. The teaching challenges listeners to deepen their relationship with God through faithful obedience rather than mere intellectual understanding.

The Letter of Jude E5 — In verses 11-16, Jude continues warning his Jewish messianic audience about deceptive, immoral people infiltrating their house churches. He compares them to three characters from the Hebrew Bible—Cain, Balaam, and Korah—who choose rebellion for themselves and lead others astray. Next, he compares the corrupt church members to a series of images from Scripture, including selfish shepherds, rainless clouds, and wandering stars. In this episode, Jon and Tim continue exploring Jude's dense prose, where he seamlessly weaves together allusions to the Hebrew Bible and Second-Temple period literature into a piercing critique of imposters within a community of disciples.FULL SHOW NOTESFor chapter-by-chapter summaries, referenced Scriptures, and reflection questions, check out the full show notes for this episode.CHAPTERSCain, Balaam, and Korah (0:00-23:23)Six Images of Corrupt Leaders (23:23-37:45)The Prophecy of Enoch (37:45-55:42)OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPTView this episode's official transcript.BIBLEPROJECT JUDE TRANSLATIONView our full translation of the Letter of Jude.REFERENCED RESOURCESAntiquities of the Jews by JosephusCheck out Tim's extensive collection of recommended books here.SHOW MUSIC“Gentle Lamb” by Lofi Sunday, Yoni Charis“Purple Clouds ft.

The Letter of Jude E4 — In verses 5-7, Jude warns a Jewish Messianic community about a group of people in their midst who live without moral restraint and reject Jesus' authority. After comparing them to a series of human and angelic rebels in the Hebrew Bible, Jude then calls out the corrupt church members in verses 8-10 as ones who “slander the glorious-ones,” referring to angels. What is Jude talking about, and why would slandering spiritual beings be considered offensive? In this episode, Jon and Tim explore the Hebrew Bible and Second-Temple period apocryphal literature to understand the unique role and revered status of angels among 1st-century Jewish people.FULL SHOW NOTESFor chapter-by-chapter summaries, referenced Scriptures, and reflection questions, check out the full show notes for this episode.CHAPTERSRecap of Introduction and Setup for Verses 8-10 (0:00-10:21)Angels in the Hebrew Bible and Second-Temple Literature (10:21-39:02)Michael the Archangel's Restraint (39:02-1:06:12)OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPTView this episode's official transcript.BIBLEPROJECT JUDE TRANSLATIONView our full translation of the Letter of Jude.REFERENCED RESOURCESGod and Spiritual Beings Podcast SeriesCheck out Tim's extensive collection of recommended books.SHOW MUSIC“Chillbop ft.

The Letter of Jude E3 — After the letter's opening appeal, Jude (or Judah) begins warning corrupt members of a Jewish messianic church community who cast off restraint and live openly immoral lives. He does so with an ancient rhetorical technique found in both the Hebrew Bible and the Dead Sea Scrolls. Jude shares three stories of rebellion in the Hebrew Bible: the spies fearful of the promised land in Numbers 13-14, the “sons of God” in Genesis 6, and the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah in Genesis 19. Then he draws comparisons to the corrupt church members, promising they'll receive the same judgment. Why does Jude write this way about the moral crisis in a church? What is he trying to communicate? In this episode, Jon and Tim explore verses 5-8, unpacking the dense biblical references and what they would have meant to Jude and his audience.FULL SHOW NOTESFor chapter-by-chapter summaries, referenced Scriptures, and reflection questions, check out the full show notes for this episode.CHAPTERSA Jewish Rhetorical Technique (0:00-18:10)Rebellion of the Spies, Sons of God, and Sodom and Gomorrah (18:10-36:41)Concluding Thoughts on the First Triad (36:41-51:54)OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPTView this episode's official transcript.BIBLEPROJECT JUDE TRANSLATIONView our full translation of the Letter of Jude.REFERENCED RESOURCESThe Dead Sea Scrolls (Pesharim)Check out Tim's extensive collection of recommended books.SHOW MUSIC“Fellowship” by Lofi Sunday, Cassidy Godwin“Peace With You ft.
