What does it mean to truly love books, raise readers, and read the Bible not only as literature but as the living Word of God? In this conversation, award-winning author and professor Dr. Carolyn Weber, best known for her memoir Surprised by Oxford, joins me to discuss the intersection of faith and literature, Christian homeschooling, classical education, and the power of living books. From her childhood shaped by storytelling and libraries, to her transformative experience reading the Bible cover to cover at Oxford, Dr. Weber shares wisdom for parents, educators, and lifelong learners.

Finding God's Direction in His Faithful Witnesses

What does it really mean to believe in Jesus—and what difference does it make? In this week's message, we’ll explore how faith in Jesus as the Son of God is not only the foundation of our salvation, but also the source of our victory, our identity, and our fellowship with God.

Send us a textIn this episode, co-hosts Susan Hookong-Taylor and Fr. Stan Chu Ilo offer a soul-stirring conversation on one of humanity's most enduring needs: hope. At a time when many are overwhelmed by loss, injustice, and uncertainty, they explore where hope is found, how it survives failure, grief, and disappointment, and why faith remains a powerful force for transformation.This is a message not just for Africans and the global Black community, but for anyone yearning for light in dark times. As Susan and Stan reflect on the importance of resilience, rootedness in community, and the quiet strength of spiritual conviction, VoiceAfrique becomes more than a podcast—it becomes a healing space for all who believe that, even in the face of suffering, something beautiful is still possible.Hope is not a naïve wish. It's a radical act. And faith makes it real.

Divorce, betrayal, heartbreak, identity loss, and the long, slow process of rebuilding a life when the one you had crumbles. But this isn't a story of staying stuck—this is a story of restoration. Of women who chose not to let bitterness define them. Of holding on to faith even when it felt like everything else fell apart.This episode is tender, honest, and full of those moments that make you feel like you're sitting around a table with your closest friends—laughing, crying, nodding along, and feeling seen.

In this heartwarming episode of "Father and Joe," host Joe Rockey expresses deep gratitude to Father Boniface for the profound impact he's had on his personal life and spiritual journey. The episode opens with a sincere acknowledgment of Father Boniface's influence, which has extended over the years from personal advice to naming Joe's new son after him, signifying the deep respect and admiration Joe holds for Father Boniface.Throughout their engaging discussion, Joe reflects on the seven-year journey since the podcast began. He openly shares how his initial curiosity about faith has transformed into a meaningful relationship with God. Father Boniface's guidance has helped him navigate challenges, develop healthier relationships, and integrate faith into his personal and professional life.Father Boniface humbly appreciates the honor of having Joe's son named after him, marking a significant milestone in their journey together. He further emphasizes that their collaborative effort has not only enriched Joe's life but also positively affected the lives of their listeners.The episode progresses into a thoughtful dialogue about the significant role relationships play in deepening one's faith. Father Boniface notes that while obstacles in developing a relationship with God may initially seem to be on one's end, it's through community, relationships, and love that these barriers are often overcome. He reminds listeners of the communal aspect of faith, encouraging those who have extra to extend help to those who may be struggling to foster such relationships.Joe complements this with an insightful thought experiment that encourages listeners to rethink past situations and relationships, aiming to open their hearts and minds to love. This practice, Joe suggests, is akin to mentally and emotionally stretching, allowing more room for growth, vulnerability, and understanding—a crucial step towards embracing faith.As they close, Joe and Father Boniface discuss the evolution of the podcast itself, noting how their own relationship and shared faith have become more profound over time. They also highlight the importance of continually trying new things, making small improvements, and the necessity of patience and support in spiritual growth.The dynamic between Joe and Father Boniface, illustrated through this heartfelt conversation, showcases the central theme of Father and Joe: fostering connections with oneself, others, and God. This episode serves as a testament to their collaborative journey and shares a powerful message about the enduring fruits of faith and community.Join Father Boniface and Joe Rockey as they invite listeners to reflect, grow, and embrace the possibilities love and faith bring into every facet of life.#FatherAndJoe, #FaithJourney, #PersonalGrowth, #SpiritualTransformation, #CommunitySupport, #Gratitude, #FaithStory, #PodcastLife, #SpiritualGuidance, #NamingAfterMentor, #LoveAndFaith, #ReflectAndGrow, #GrowthMindset, #YoungBelievers, #SpiritualAwakening, #InspirationalPodcasts, #FamilyImpact, #RelationshipWithGod, #FaithAndLove, #SpiritualMentorship, #NurturingFaith, #Encouragement, #CatholicFaith, #ModernFaithJourney, #HeartfeltConversations, #PodcastCommunity, #SpiritualInsight, #EverydaySpirituality, #TrustAndFaith, #PersonalTestimony, #ConnectionWithGod, #SupportiveCommunities, #ExploringFaith, #SpiritualObstacles, #FaithPodcast, #Vulnerability, #SpiritualGrowth, #SpiritualEnrichment, #TogetherInFaith, #FindingFaith.

We'll hear the Faith Story of Faith Missions presented by a few members from the GO Team. We also have the privilege to learn from a few of our missionaries: Emily Nussbaum, Steve & Joan Eisinger and Tom & Julie Meiner.

This week kicks off our new series, Your Story Speaks, with a reminder that your faith story has value, because it reflects the goodness of God. Pastor Tyler challenges us to reflect on who Jesus is to us, whether our lives reflect the hope we've found in Him, and if we're ready to share that hope with others. Our stories may be imperfect, but they carry the power to point people to a perfect God.Questions for Reflection:• Have you taken time to consider what your story is? Have you thought through different aspects of your story? The way to tell it, it to remember it.• Does sharing your testimony come naturally to you? Why or why not?

According to Barna's research, Gen Z is turning the tide on church participation in America. Today we get the chance to talk with the co-hosts of the Broken Made Beautiful Podcast – Hailey Walden and Kat Villaluz, about life, faith, and how to help the next generation win.

What would you sacrifice for truth? This question echoes throughout the latest episode of American Soul Podcast as we explore the extraordinary lives of those who gave everything for their faith and freedom.The heart of this episode centers on Jerome of Prague, a 15th-century Christian reformer whose unwavering commitment cost him his life. After enduring 340 days in loathsome prisons, Jerome faced his accusers with remarkable eloquence, declaring: "The cause I now plead is not my own cause. It is the cause of men. It is the cause of Christians." His final moments reveal extraordinary courage as he approached his execution by burning at the stake, even instructing his executioners to light the fire before his eyes. His last recorded words—"This soul and flames, I offer Christ to thee"—stand as a testament to unwavering faith in the face of ultimate sacrifice.From religious martyrdom, we journey to military heroism with the story of Captain Edward C. Allworth, a WWI Medal of Honor recipient who swam across the Meuse River under enemy fire, inspiring his men to follow. His leadership enabled them to overcome machine gun nests and capture 100 prisoners despite being outnumbered. These stories converge on a critical truth: "It's impossible without God and Jesus Christ to preserve liberty."The episode weaves in powerful Scripture readings from Matthew 7 about judging others, the golden rule, and knowing people by their fruits. We're challenged to examine whether our actions, not just our words, reveal our true priorities. Do we treat others as we wish to be treated? Do we make time for what truly matters? The podcast concludes with insights from Mercy Otis Warren's 1805 history of the American Revolution, offering a female perspective on America's first civil conflict and reminding us that while philosophy teaches us about change and death, Christianity "strengthens the mind to meet them with the rational hope of revival and renovation."Are we willing to make sacrifices for our faith and freedom today? Join us in exploring these timeless questions and discovering inspiration from those who answered with their lives.

Send us a textEver feel like your prayers hit the ceiling and bounce back? You're not alone. In this soul-stirring episode, host Ron Myers and his guest Mike unpack the transformative power of authentic prayer—not as a religious duty, but as a direct connection to the Creator of the universe.Mike's journey from military service to prayer ministry reveals how honest communication with God creates supernatural peace amid life's storms. Through powerful real-world examples, we witness broken families reconciled, business conflicts resolved, and stress levels dropping dramatically when people stop treating prayer as a last resort emergency hotline and start embracing it as a continuous conversation."Pain will make you pray," Mike observes, "but most of us only bring God our emergencies while handling the small stuff ourselves." This mindset shift—recognizing that God cares about every detail of our lives—is what transforms prayer from ritual to relationship.Ron shares five practical keys to developing a powerful prayer life: recognizing your union with Christ, embracing freedom in prayer (no specific formulas required), focusing on relationship rather than ritual, being completely honest with God, and trusting the Holy Spirit's guidance. These principles help break down the barriers that often make prayer feel distant or ineffective.Ready to experience the game-changing power of authentic prayer? Whether you're struggling with family conflicts, workplace challenges, or personal battles, this episode offers practical wisdom and inspiration to develop the kind of prayer life that brings peace before circumstances even change. Discover how to move beyond "bless you, bless her, bless him" prayers into transformative conversations with Jesus that will get the hell out of your life and open the doorway to divine connection.If you would like to be a guest and share your story, click this link: https://thepromoter.org/story/ Thanks for Listening, and subscribe to hear a new episode each week!

Preaching for the Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time, Leah Sealey offers a reflection on how story telling can help enhance our lives of faith and discipleship: "What does this gospel reading about “being called” or even the Greek translation of “netting people” enliven in you? Perhaps you can spend some time alone or with a partner, journaling or reflecting together. Tell a story about a time when you had a change of heart or had an experience of being “won over”, or about your ongoing commitment to serving others in order to heal the fractures in our broken world." Leah Sealey convenes MKE Spiritual Directors, a peer development group for spiritual directors and a resource for those seeking spiritual direction in the Milwaukee area. In the spring of 2020, she graduated from Sacred Heart Seminary and School of Theology's Cor Unum program with a MA in systematic theology.

JOIN THE BJDW COMMUNITY HERE! For some reason, sharing my alcohol story has always been easy for me. But today's podcast episode has been 42 years in the making. I've never told this story before. Today, I want to tell you all about how I rediscovered Jesus. It's a story of redemption, sobriety, and His unrelenting love that has shaped my life. This isn't a story of religious perfection; it's one of shame and brokenness and a profound reconnection with God that changed everything. Growing up, my mother's unwavering Christian faith was a constant in my life. She planted seeds of faith in my heart, even when I didn't fully realize it. When I went to college and ventured into early adulthood, those roots of faith began to feel distant. Life's demands and distractions pulled me away, and I drifted. Yet, I always felt a quiet, persistent call deep in my soul—a whisper that refused to let me go. In 2018, my world was upended. Losing my mom was a heartbreak I wasn't prepared for. That loss brought me to my knees. In my grief, I found myself turning back to the Bible, searching for comfort, answers, and—if I'm honest—a way to understand myself again. I didn't just read the words; I clung to them. Slowly, those seeds my mom had planted began to bloom. As I delved deeper into my faith, I wrestled with the tension between living in a performance-driven world and embracing the transformative power of grace. I'd spent so much of my life trying to prove myself—to be “good enough.” But God met me in the messiness of my real life. Here's what I've come to know: being a Christian isn't about rules or rituals. It's about a deeply personal relationship with Jesus. It's about freedom—the kind that heals your heart and fills your life with purpose. It's about saying “yes” to grace when everything in you wants to cling to control. Sobriety has been a significant part of my faith journey. For me, giving up alcohol wasn't just about breaking a habit; it was about stepping into a life of clarity and intentionality, free from the things that clouded my connection to God. If you're navigating your own sobriety journey, wrestling with questions of faith, or simply searching for encouragement, know this: God's grace is big enough for your doubts and your struggles. He has good plans and He can redeem your story, just like He did for me.

JOIN THE BJDW COMMUNITY HERE! Today Meade shares her deeply personal faith story. Through moments of vulnerability and profound honesty, Meade recounts her transformation from a life of struggles with alcohol to finding freedom and identity in her faith. Growing up, Meade believed that Jesus was only for the 'perfect,' which led her to distance herself from faith during her teenage and early adult years.
