(2:51) Audio: Masih Aminejad on what's happening in Iran. (10:10) Greg - I get so many Catholic advertisements and Catholics asking for Money. Break 1 (15:50) Bill - When our popes make comments that are not just based on morals and teaching that confuse the Faithful it seems to reveal some of their character and might show some flaws. What do you think about this? (30:19) Michael - I think you can lust after your wife which can lead to pornography and other immoral things and I wanted to get your take on this. Break 2 (46:36) Charles - I don't think Iran has been the one breaking agreements. It seems to me that Trump has been breaking agreements.

What makes a "true" knight in Westeros? 2. Duncan's discussion about his foot versus the the usefulness of Prince Baelor. The value of each and what that means in Westeros? Is Baelor worth more than Duncan's foot? Is this justice or chivalry gone wrong? 3. The hedge knight vs real knight depiction is a real thing in this show. How do you feel about that critique? 4.

In difficult parenting seasons, it's easy to focus entirely on your child's needs while quietly neglecting your own. Over time, the emotional weight can become heavy — even if you appear steady on the outside. In this episode of the Still Faithful series, we turn the focus gently toward the parent who has been carrying so much. This conversation explores what it means to care for yourself without guilt, to rest without abandoning hope, and to remember that you are not only a steward in this story — you are also deeply loved by God. If you've felt depleted, spiritually tired, or unsure how to replenish your own heart while still loving your child faithfully, this episode offers steady reassurance and practical next steps. In this episode, we explore: The invisible emotional load many parents carry Why strength does not eliminate your need for care The difference between self-care and soul-care Signs you may be emotionally or spiritually depleted Practical ways to begin restoring your capacity The theological truth that you are not only the steward — you are also the beloved Reflection questions: Where am I most depleted right now? What would true rest look like for me in this season? What am I allowed to receive? If I believed God cared about my well-being too, what might I change? An important reassurance: You are allowed to experience peace even if your child's story is unfinished. Your rest is not abandonment. Your joy is not betrayal. Your steadiness is not indifference. Caring for yourself does not mean you love your child less. It often means you love better. Support: If you're unsure what healthy rhythms of restoration look like for you — or if guilt makes it difficult to prioritize your own well-being — coaching is available as a space to discern next faithful steps with clarity and support.

This episode dives deep into the first half of the powerful FACT framework – Faithful and Available – that serves as both a barometer for discipleship readiness and a personal examination tool for spiritual growth.• Faithfulness includes alignment with Church teaching, honest acknowledgment of struggles, and consistent striving toward holiness• Being faithful requires humility and obedience rather than elevating personal opinions above Church teaching• True availability doesn't mean an empty calendar but rather a heart oriented toward what truly matters• Availability means being present in the moment, putting down phones, and prioritizing prayer despite competing demands• Our availability or lack thereof reveals "who we are bowing to" - what we truly worship• A "schedule conversion" may be necessary if we're too busy for prayer and silence• Seeking counsel from trusted friends provides essential perspective on our blind spots• Making even small adjustments can significantly align our lives more closely with Christ's call************Links and other stuff from the show:Pastoral Letter, "On the Unity of the Body and Soul:" archokc.org/pastoral-lettersRed Dirt Catholics Email Address: reddirtcatholics@archokc.orgThe Book "From Christendom to Apostolic Mission" (Digital and Print): AmazonThe Social Dilemma: https://www.netflix.com/title/81254224Daily Examen Prayer: https://bit.ly/309As8zLectio Divina How-To: https://bit.ly/3fp8UTa

Thursday February 26, 2026I Week Of LentToday's readings remind us that integrity, maturity, and mercy are formed under pressure.In Genesis 39:1–23, Joseph rises in Potiphar's house because “the Lord was with him.” Even when falsely accused and thrown into prison, that same phrase is repeated—*the Lord was with Joseph. Favor does not prevent hardship, and faithfulness does not always yield immediate reward. But God's presence remains steady in both promotion and prison.In 1 Corinthians 2:14–3:15, Paul contrasts spiritual maturity with spiritual infancy. The natural mind cannot grasp the things of the Spirit, and believers are urged to grow beyond jealousy and division. We are builders on a foundation already laid—Jesus Christ. What we construct with our lives will be tested, and only what is built on Him will endure.And in Mark 2:1–12, four friends lower a paralyzed man through a roof to reach Jesus. Before healing the body, Jesus forgives the man's sins—revealing that His deepest authority is over the human heart. The scribes question Him, but the crowd leaves glorifying God.This episode invites us to remain faithful when unseen, to build wisely on Christ as our foundation, and to trust the Son who not only heals—but forgives and restores from the inside out.

This week the girls talk America's Next Top Model, the upcoming Traitors finale, and their biggest four goals.
It's pretty much a cliché to say that Americans live in two separate political realities. We shout at each other from our separate bunkers, unable to agree even on basic facts. One coping strategy—and maybe the default, given human nature—is to hunker down with our own tribe and demonize the other. But there are more constructive ways, and today's guest makes a living examining those alternatives. He's Jonathan Stray, senior scientist at University of California Berkeley's Center for Human-Compatible AI and the creator of the excellent newsletter Better Conflict Bulletin. Jonathan studies the growing field of peace-building—that is, helping people from different factions work together. He's involved in research about AI primed to unite people rather than divide them. Some things we learn from this conversation: About a journalistic standard called multi-partiality, a more attainable goal than impartiality. About how you might construct an algorithm that prioritizes reliable news over popular news. And why, despite the state of discord right now, there are reasons to be optimistic. Faithful listeners might recognize that we recorded this podcast about a year ago, but its relevance has only increased. We're re-posting this the day after the most divisive state of the union address Eric has ever heard. This administration will not last forever, and we will as a country need to find our way back to working together. And we can really use some of Jonathan's optimism about our ability to do that.Website - free episode transcriptswww.in-reality.fmAlliance for Trust in Mediaalliancefortrust.com Produced by Tom Platts at Sound Sapiensoundsapien.com
"Is any thing too hard for the Lord?" This is the question that defines the lives of Abraham and Sarah. From a biological impossibility to a heartbreaking command on a mountain top, their journey proves that God can bring life out of "deadness"—if we are willing to trust Him with everything. Summary: In this episode, we study Genesis 18–23, following the "Father of the Faithful" and the "Mother of Nations" through their ultimate trials. We explore the transition from the joy of Isaac's birth to the gut-wrenching climb up Mount Moriah. The Promise to Sarah: We look at the visit of the three messengers and the shift from Sarah's "laugh of doubt" to her "laugh of joy." We discuss how she received strength to conceive because she "judged him faithful who had promised". The Sacrifice of Isaac: We dive deep into the "Abrahamic Test." Why would a God who abhors human sacrifice command this? We explore the parallels between Abraham offering Isaac and Heavenly Father offering His Only Begotten Son. Life from Death: Using Paul's words in Romans and Hebrews, we analyze how Abraham was able to obey because he accounted that "God was able to raise him up, even from the dead". Jehovah-Jireh: We discuss the significance of the "ram in the thicket" and the name "The Lord Will Provide," exploring how God provides the lamb for us when we cannot provide it for ourselves. The Burial of Sarah: We reflect on the end of Sarah's mortal journey and the faith required to buy a piece of the Promised Land as a "possession of a buryingplace." Call-to-Action: Have you ever had to surrender something you loved back to the Lord, trusting that He had a better plan? How did you find the strength to keep walking up your own "Mount Moriah"?

Rob Has a Podcast | Survivor / Big Brother / Amazing Race - RHAP
The Traitors S4 Finale Preview Welcome to RHAP’s coverage of ALL the Traitors iterations from around the world, including New Zealand, Australia, and Canada. The Traitors US is a high-stakes reality competition set in a secluded castle, where contestants must work together to complete challenges and earn a prize pot—while rooting out the secret traitors hidden among them. The Traitors Season 4 finale is just around the corner, and Rob Cesternino, Pooya, and guest Mike Bloom dig into all the shifting alliances, metagame shake-ups, and Faithful-versus-Traitor strategies shaping this pivotal episode. With the game at a crossroads, the hosts unpack how the shifting dynamics among reality TV stars, non-gamers, and Housewives set the stage for an unexpected endgame. The discussion covers the subtle evolution of the cast, and how outsider groups reach the finale while Survivor and Big Brother veterans get picked off. Rob shares his perspective as a recent cast member, weighing in on how alliances like the “Dagger Six” and the coalition of more introverted players fly under the radar, building unique routes to the end. The group also explores how Rob Roush has navigated group loyalty, traitor recruitment, and critical late-game decisions without burning his key relationships. Highlights from their conversation include: The metagame's impact on targeting specific groups (gamers, Housewives, non-gamers) and how this shapes who reaches the finale Rob Roush's alliance maneuvering—balancing connections with both lower-profile coalitions and the larger “Dagger Six” The strategy and risks behind traitor recruitment, including why Rob picks Eric over other potential options for a final stretch partnership How Faithfuls should approach late-game votes when strong duos like Johnny and Tara could dominate the ending A lively debate comparing Rob Roush's gameplay to Cirie Fields, sizing up their disarming social strategies and influence in the castle Will Rob's partnership choices and social game secure him the win, or could Faithfuls splinter the duos before the fire of truth? Dive in as the hosts break down the possible paths to victory, weigh All-Star returnee picks, and tease what explosive reveals the reunion might hold.

God told Abraham to "get thee out of thy country" and promised him a legacy that would bless all the families of the earth. But for decades, Abraham and Sarah had no land and no children. How do you keep walking when the promises of God seem impossible? Summary: In this episode, we dive into the heart of the Old Testament: The Abrahamic Covenant. We look at Genesis 12–17 and Abraham 1–2 to see how a "foreigner and a stranger" became the Father of the Faithful. The Search for Greater Happiness: We analyze Abraham's desire for the "blessings of the fathers" and why he sought for his own "place of residence" spiritually and physically. The Three-Part Promise: We break down the core of the covenant—Posterity (seed as the stars), Priesthood (the power to bless), and Property (a land of inheritance). The Name Change: We explore the profound symbolism of Abram becoming Abraham and Sarai becoming Sarah—adding the Hebrew letter "He" (the breath of God) into their very identities. The Symbolism of Circumcision: We discuss the "token" of the covenant and why God requires a physical reminder of our spiritual commitments. Sarah's Role: We look at why Sarah is the "Rock" from which we are hewn and how her faith was just as essential to the covenant as Abraham's. Call-to-Action: Abraham was told to "be thou a blessing." How are you using your covenant privileges to bless those around you today? Let us know in the comments! If you're ready to "look unto the rock whence ye are hewn," please like, subscribe, and share this video to help others stay "Unshaken."

When Monét X Change was murdered on The Traitors (new episodes stream Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT on Peacock), my strategy-game obsession lost more than just a savvy player. It lost someone who was hilarious, fashion-forward, and fabulous to boot. Monét sits down with me in person to talk about how he was cast on The Traitors, why vibes—not just “evidence”—matter when deciding who's a Traitor or a Faithful, and his deep love of strategy games. He also opens up about being betrayed by a certain Potomac Housewife and reflects on how his drag has evolved so successfully over the past decade. 00:00 Melissa's Traitors Obsession 01:38 How Monét Got Cast on The Traitors 03:04 Being Devastated Not Becoming a Traitor 05:05 How Strict Production Rules Really Are 06:10 Strategy vs Vibes Inside the Castle 07:55 What You Actually See of the Castle 09:14 Meeting Housewives & Celebrities 11:00 Strategy Falling Apart Immediately 13:20 Real Red Flags vs Random Theories 15:06 Calling Out a Traitor — Too Soon 16:41 Discovering Who the Traitors Were 17:22 Reaction: “I Was Gagged” 18:20 Reality TV Strategy Mistakes 20:52 Talking in Code & Chess Moves 22:24 Traitors Fashion & Outfits 23:22 No Glam Teams Allowed 26:03 Getting Ready in Drag at 6 AM 27:14 How Drag Started 29:47 Quitting Her Job to Follow Passion 30:50 Career Explosion After Drag Race 31:22 Traitors All-Stars Dreams 31:45 Final Thoughts This is another Hurrdat Media Production.

Recorded live in Longmont, Colorado, this panel conversation brings together four seasoned pastors and ministry leaders to reflect on what faithful preaching looks like in today's cultural moment.Dr Roy Collins, Dr Alan Stoddard, Mike Payne, and Bryan Stupar speak candidly about early preaching mistakes, the discipline of reading Scripture carefully, and the practical realities of preparing sermons alongside the many demands of pastoral ministry.The discussion addresses how expressive individualism shapes both the church and the wider culture, and why historic practices like preaching calendars, shared preparation, and confessional reminders help anchor pastors and congregations alike. The panel also explores realistic rhythms for sermon planning, the challenge of information overload, and the value of planning ahead rather than reacting week to week.In the final portion of the conversation, the focus turns to youth ministry. The speakers offer wise and grounded counsel on mentoring young people, cultivating lasting fruit, and remembering that students are often listening more closely than they appear. Rather than chasing novelty, the panel encourages patient investment, faithful presence, and a long view of spiritual formation.This conversation was recorded at a live Expositors Collective training event in Longmont, Colorado aimed at equipping pastors and Bible teachers to faithfully study and publicly proclaim God's Word in the modern church.Topics CoveredLessons learned from first sermons and early failuresWhy reading whole books of Scripture mattersPlanning ahead with preaching calendarsManaging information overload in sermon preparationStructuring a realistic ministry weekExpressive individualism and its impact on the churchWhy historic confessions still matterMentoring young people toward spiritual fruitThe quiet but real attentiveness of youthAdditional Listening: Alan Stoddard on Ministry Mentorships: https://goodlion.io/podcast/expositors-collective/episode/passing-on-the-baton-preaching-mentorships-and-ministry-training-with-alan-stoddard Mike Payne on Passing on the Baton:https://goodlion.io/podcast/expositors-collective/episode/the-value-of-preaching-mentorships-michael-payne Bryan Stupar on Character in the Ministry:https://goodlion.io/podcast/expositors-collective/episode/why-character-matters-bryan-stuparConnectFor information about our upcoming training events visit ExpositorsCollective.com Join our private Facebook group to continue the conversation: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ExpositorsCollective
Some conversations don't start with answers.They start with a shift you didn't see coming.In this episode, Robin sits down with Ashley Gross Minor for a deeply personal and honest conversation about what happens when something that once felt foundational and sacred begins to feel messy and complicated.Ashley spent more than a decade immersed in what many call the “K-World” of Kanakuk Ministries. She was a camper, leader, mentor, and believer whose faith was shaped in that space.But recently, something changed.After engaging with a widely circulated conversation featuring Elizabeth Carlock Phillips on The Shawn Ryan Show, Ashley found herself wrestling with questions she could no longer ignore.This episode isn't about proving facts or revisiting headlines.It's about what happens internally when new information collides with long-held trust.It's about the tension of holding both gratitude and grief. Of reconciling meaningful spiritual experiences with difficult realities. Of deciding what responsibility looks like when silence no longer feels right.This conversation may challenge you. It may resonate with you. It may simply invite you to reflect more deeply.(Listener discretion is advised as we discuss sensitive issues related to child sexual abuse.)Special Guest: Ashley Gross MinorAshley Gross Minor is a wife, mom, and business owner whose life has been deeply impacted by her experiences with Kanakuk Ministries. In fact, she spent more than fourteen years deeply embedded in what many refer to as the Kanakuk “K-World.” She was a camper. A staff member. A recruiter. A graduate of the Institute. A KLIFE director. A leader. A mentor. She sent children she loves to camp. She gave her life to Christ there at twelve years old.For most of her life, this wasn't just a camp. It was a spiritual home.But recently, Ashley listened to a three-plus- hour conversation between Elizabeth Carlock Phillips and Shawn Ryan on The Shawn Ryan Show. This conversation deeply impacted her understanding of what has unfolded over decades within the organization. She joins Robin on this episode to discuss her personal experiences at Kanakuk and why she can no longer remain silent.Show Notes:The Shawn Ryan Show: Elizabeth Phllips- Camp Kanakuk: Exposing One of hte World's Largest Summer Campshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vQriYkW8KQWebsite Ashely mentions: https://factsaboutkanakuk.com/Sexual Abuse Resources for the Columbia, MO area:True North of Columbia (formerly Rape & Abuse Crisis Service / RACS)24/7 crisis line: 573-875-1370 or 800-548-2480Services: confidential counseling, advocacy, support groups, legal/hospital accompanimentServes Boone County and surrounding areasServices are free or low-cost for survivors.

When parenting feels uncertain or painful, the desire to control outcomes can quietly take over. Not because we are manipulative — but because we care deeply. In this episode of the Still Faithful series, we explore what it truly means to let go of control without letting go of love. This conversation gently separates responsibility from outcome, and invites parents into a posture of surrender that is steady rather than anxious. If you've found yourself rehearsing conversations, managing reactions, or carrying the weight of your child's choices, this episode offers reassurance: control is not the same as care — and releasing outcomes does not mean releasing love. In this episode, we explore: Why control often feels like responsibility for parents The emotional exhaustion that comes from managing outcomes The difference between surrender and withdrawal How love changes when control loosens Trusting that God is at work beyond what you can see Reflection questions: Take these slowly — there's no pressure to resolve anything today. Where am I trying to manage outcomes? What fears sit underneath my need for control? What would it look like to entrust this area fully to God? How might my posture shift if I believed God loves my child even more than I do? A practice for this week: "God, I release what I cannot control. Help me love without grasping. Help me trust without managing." Surrender is not a one-time decision. It is a posture we return to again and again. An important reminder: Letting go of control does not mean letting go of love. It means allowing love to be steady instead of anxious. Connect with Melinda: melinda@melindapatrick.org https://melindapatrick.org/
Traitors RHAP-up: Recaps of The Traitors from Around the World with Pooya
The Traitors S4 Finale Preview Welcome to RHAP's coverage of ALL the Traitors iterations from around the world, including New Zealand, Australia, and Canada. The Traitors US is a high-stakes reality competition set in a secluded castle, where contestants must work together to complete challenges and earn a prize pot—while rooting out the secret traitors hidden among them. The Traitors Season 4 finale is just around the corner, and Rob Cesternino, Pooya, and guest Mike Bloom dig into all the shifting alliances, metagame shake-ups, and Faithful-versus-Traitor strategies shaping this pivotal episode. With the game at a crossroads, the hosts unpack how the shifting dynamics among reality TV stars, non-gamers, and Housewives set the stage for an unexpected endgame. The discussion covers the subtle evolution of the cast, and how outsider groups reach the finale while Survivor and Big Brother veterans get picked off. Rob shares his perspective as a recent cast member, weighing in on how alliances like the "Dagger Six" and the coalition of more introverted players fly under the radar, building unique routes to the end. The group also explores how Rob Roush has navigated group loyalty, traitor recruitment, and critical late-game decisions without burning his key relationships. Highlights from their conversation include: The metagame's impact on targeting specific groups (gamers, Housewives, non-gamers) and how this shapes who reaches the finale Rob Roush's alliance maneuvering—balancing connections with both lower-profile coalitions and the larger "Dagger Six" The strategy and risks behind traitor recruitment, including why Rob picks Eric over other potential options for a final stretch partnership How Faithfuls should approach late-game votes when strong duos like Johnny and Tara could dominate the ending A lively debate comparing Rob Roush's gameplay to Cirie Fields, sizing up their disarming social strategies and influence in the castle Will Rob's partnership choices and social game secure him the win, or could Faithfuls splinter the duos before the fire of truth? Dive in as the hosts break down the possible paths to victory, weigh All-Star returnee picks, and tease what explosive reveals the reunion might hold.

Faithful Steps: Embracing New Beginnings - Accountability
Faithful Steps: Embracing New Beginnings - Overcoming Setbacks: Faith and Resiliency _ James 1:2-4
The Bible calls us not to be quarrelsome, but to show kindness to all. Faithful obedience to Christ may place us among people with whom we disagree, but even in these moments our lives should reflect the fruit of the Spirit, shaping our attitude, words, and temperament. By doing so we can be a witness to the lost who are held captive by the enemy. Verses Used:2 Timothy 2:23-26Proverbs 20:3Proverbs 26:21Proverbs 15:1Ephesians 4:29Discussion Questions: *As Christians, we must not be quarrelsome. How does a quarrelsome person act & how does this hinder our relationship with and our testimony to others? *In what areas of your life do you tend to be quarrelsome or contentious? How can you work on this? *As Christians, we are called to be kind to all, able to teach, and patient when wronged. Which one do you most struggle with and why? What standard does the Bible call you to in that area? *According to Galatians 6:1-3 and 2 Timothy 2:25, what demeanor should we have when correcting others? Why do you think this is important? *What should be the end goal of any correction offered, according to 2 Timothy 2:25-26? How would working toward this goal impact your demeanor and the correction you offer? Can you think of any real-life examples?

Sunday Teaching: 2.22.2026Teaching by: Josh Stewart
Have you ever met a salesperson or a marketer who offered you something that seemed too good to be true… and then it turns out it WAS too good to be true? Although overpromising may increase sales and conversions on the front end, underdelivering on those promises alienates customers and creates a bad reputation. Similarly, overpromising and underdelivering in your relationships at work and at home causes division, disappointment, and distrust. Proverbs 11:3 says, "The integrity of the honest keeps them on track; the deviousness of crooks brings them to ruin." Integrity is more than being honest – it's matching your actions to your words in a way that honors God and those around you. Are there any areas of your life that you are overpromising and underdelivering?

Description: None of us enjoys suffering; in fact, most people do everything they can to avoid it. What does God say about suffering that will be helpful for each of us when the inevitable comes our way?
Positioned for Miracles: The Faithful Steps God Uses to Do the Extraordinary Do miracles still happen today? And if they do — why do some believers seem to experience God's power while others never do? In this episode, we explore how ordinary, covenant-rooted faithfulness positioned Israel to experience extraordinary results — and what that means for believers today. It's not about chasing spectacle. It's about understanding the biblical pattern God has revealed. If you've ever longed to see God move in your life, this lesson will help you understand the practical steps Scripture models for being fully used by Him.
