Both lived in Constantinople and were disciples of the Patriarch St Paul the Confessor (November 6), who was murdered in exile by the Arians. During the reign of the Arian Emperor Constantius, they fearlessly confessed that the Son of God is of one essence with the Father and is truly God. For their confession they were beheaded by the Arians and buried outside the city. Soon afterward, miracles began to be wrought at their tomb, and St John Chrysostom later built a church over it.

Lauren Fletcher offers a deeply personal reflection on faith amid silence and struggle, grounded in 1 Thessalonians 5:17—“Never stop praying.” Through seasons of mental health battles, loss, and uncertainty, Lauren discovered a profound truth: even when we can’t hear God, He still hears us. This devotional reminds believers that prayer isn’t about perfect words or constant clarity—it’s about trust in a faithful God who listens, comforts, and moves on our behalf, even in the quiet. Highlights God hears every prayer, even when we can’t sense His presence or voice. Our past wounds may resurface, but God uses them to bring healing and intimacy with Him. Prayer doesn’t have to be long or eloquent—sometimes, a simple “Help me, Lord” is enough. The Holy Spirit and Jesus Himself intercede for us when we can’t find the words (Romans 8, John 17). Faith grows not in certainty, but in persistence—continuing to pray and believe when life feels silent. Join the Conversation Have you ever gone through a season where you couldn’t hear God clearly? How did you keep praying through it? Share your story to encourage others who are struggling to stay connected in faith.

“For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.” — Jesus. Imagine finding out family secrets that wrecked your world and left you feeling betrayed and abandoned. How do we move past that and forgive? Jenny's guest, Author and Pastor Micah Davis shares his personal story and a pathway of healing. He says unforgiveness leads us to a “Prison of Unforgiveness” that we put ourselves in and ironically, we have the keys to unlock the prison door and let ourselves out!  He shows us that the other side of our failures and hurts is forgiveness and true freedom. And reminds us, the way of Jesus is forgiveness. He shares the beauty of forgiveness and why it's essential to healing relationships with ourselves, others, and God. Micah is a Pastor of Teaching & Vision at The Sanctuary in Illinois & author of his latest book: “Three Strikes You're Forgiven:: Encounter a God Who Wants to Redeem Your Past, Restore Your Present, and Transform Your Future.” He invites us to let go of our restless pursuit of perfection and to find rest in Christ. You can find Micah on social media, at micahdavis.com, and on YouTube.

Teaching on the trilogy of parables in Luke 15, focusing on the  Parable of The Father.  The ones that listened to Jesus tell these parables were considered the worst of the sinners.  We are all prodigals having wasted the inheritance given to us - our time, money, and faith opportunities.  All of us at some point have squandered that stewardship, but it's never too late to start over with God.  All it takes is the right attitude of facing ourselves and turning back to the Father's house.  God will give you another chance to start over.

Today's Promise: Matthew 6:7-8 Jesus paused during the Sermon on the Mount to teach an essential lesson: how to pray. In Today's Promise, we'll explore Matthew 6:7-8, where Jesus reveals God knows your needs before you ask. So, if God already knows, why pray? Because prayer isn't about informing Him, but it's about inviting Him into your life. In this episode, you'll discover two simple keys to effective prayer: Keep your prayers simple. God isn't moved by long or fancy words. He listens to a sincere heart. Keep your prayers sincere. Talk to God as your loving Father, not as a distant deity. God knows your pain, your needs, and your desires. As a good Father, He delights in giving good gifts to His children. When you come before Him, speak honestly, open your heart, and trust that He hears you. Tune in to be encouraged, strengthened, and reminded that prayer is not a ritual; it's a relationship.

What does God want more than your obedience? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper opens Luke 15:25–31 to show how God appeals to us not as slaves but as sons.

The Responsibility Of A Father

Romans 8:15 — What is real knowledge of God? As Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones follows the apostle Paul's teaching on the adoption as sons of God, he gives special attention to the Christian's true emotional and effective knowledge of the truth. The Holy Spirit leads the Christian from a spirit of bondage and fear to this Spirit of adoption, which is marked by the deep cry, “Abba, Father.” In this sermon on Romans 8:15 titled “Sons of God,” Dr. Lloyd-Jones further explores this teaching as it relates to assurance. Similar to someone in love, one may not be able to express it intellectually, but they are certainly aware that it is true. Likewise the child of God knows he or she is a child of God. This, says Dr. Lloyd-Jones, is the proof of adoption. Practically, then, God is not off in the distance nor is He difficult to approach. The Christian may approach Him in a familiar way, even a spontaneous manner. Listen carefully to this sermon on Romans 8:15 as Dr. Lloyd-Jones talks about the delight, joy, peace, and rest of genuinely knowing God — that is, knowing God as Abba, Father.

Cannon is on the road again! Luckily for the children, Lego is not in charge. They'll have food cooked and their hair will be in decent ponytails this time.

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible, your daily companion on a journey through the Scriptures. In today's episode, host Hunter invites listeners from around the world to gather by the “fires of God's love” on this 23rd day of October. Together, we dive into Job chapters 13 and 14, where Job passionately argues his case before God, wrestling with suffering, justice, and hope. Next, we move into Acts chapters 17 and 18, following Paul and Silas as they face opposition and share the message of Jesus throughout Thessalonica, Berea, Athens, and Corinth. Along the way, we encounter inspiring figures like Priscilla and Aquila, who gently guide Apollos into a deeper understanding of faith in Christ. Through thoughtful reflection, heartfelt prayer, and words of encouragement, Hunter reminds us that our true rest and identity is found in Jesus. So grab your Bible, settle in, and let's explore these powerful stories together—trusting that through it all, we are deeply loved and never alone. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Aquila and Priscilla and the Invitation to Rest Aquila and Priscilla went to help Apollos. And they want to help us too. They want to point us to our baptism into Christ. Apollos, we're told, only knew about the baptism of John, but Priscilla and Aquila point us beyond that—to our baptism into Christ, an even greater hope and assurance. This is the amazing, liberating news: that God has reconciled us to himself and drawn us into his life. Our identity is not wrapped up in our striving, our performance, or our attempts at holiness. Our identity is in Christ—deeply rooted in what He has done, not what we can do. Baptism, Priscilla and Aquila would remind us, signifies this new reality. Ours is not to strive after some unattainable perfection, but to rest in who Jesus says we are—trusting in His perfection, His holiness, and His love. In Christ, God assumed all of humanity into Himself, so that we might participate in the loving life that Jesus shares with the Father and the Spirit. This is what Priscilla and Aquila invited Apollos to discover: not just a message about repentance, but the ongoing, participatory life in Christ, where we rest, and our joy and strength is found. And that is the invitation laid before us today—to rest in what Jesus has done, to find our strength and joy there. Let us not be anxious or strive in our own strength, but remember that Jesus has included us, adopted us, and called us His own. That's a prayer I hold for my own soul. That's a prayer I have for my family—for my wife, my daughters, and my son. And that's a prayer I have for you: may we rest in our true identity in Christ, and live each day from that grace-filled place. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL

Worship Leader Taylor Cummings teaches that Jesus modeled complete dependence on the Father and calls us to abide in Him to bear true, lasting fruit. She emphasizes that there is no real life apart from Christ.

His Hebrew name is Jacob. He was a close kinsman of Christ, and was therefore called, according to the Jewish usage of the time, his "brother." Some accounts say that he was a child of Joseph by his first marriage; others accounts say that he was the son of Joseph's brother Cleopas and his wife Mary, who was first cousin of the Theotokos. He took the Nazirite vows of one completely consecrated to God according to the Law, and from a young age he was called "the Just" by his people. He is called James the Lesser in Scripture (Mark 15:40) to distinguish him from James the son of Zebedee, who is called the Greater. The Apostles appointed him first Bishop of Jerusalem. It was he who presided at the earliest Council of the Church in Jerusalem, where he resolved the problem of how gentile converts should be received into the Church (see Acts 15). He wrote the New Testament Epistle, addressed primarily to Jewish converts to the Faith, that bears his name. About the year 62, he ascended to the peak of the Temple in Jerusalem on Passover, and there bore witness to Christ so effectively that the people cried out "Hosanna to the Son of David." At this, the Scribes and Pharisees, fearing that all the people would be converted to Christ, cast him down to the ground. By God's grace, he survived long enough to rise, kneel and pray, like his Master, "Forgive them, Father, for they know not what they do." He was then clubbed to death by one of the scribes.

Father encourages us to be zealous for the Lord.

Send us a textA great career means little if you're not here to enjoy it. This conversation with KellyMitchell's president, Blaise Bussell, cuts through the noise to what matters most: leading at home, protecting your health, and building a life your kids will remember. Blaise opens up about the values forged in childhood by a gritty mom and a humble coach-dad, the joy and nerves of raising a 13-year-old daughter and 7-year-old son, and the choice to put family first—even when work says otherwise. From car-ride questions that spark real talks to celebrating his daughter's faith decision on her terms, the small moments become the story.Then comes the jolt: a heart attack with 98% blockage that arrived without a dramatic warning, just jaw pain, nausea, and a stubborn belief it was stress. Blaise walks us through the late-night symptoms, the “go straight to the hospital” call, fast-placed stents, and the quieter recovery that followed. He traded max-effort workouts for sustainable strength, dialed in medication, and learned to live in a safer training zone. The most important lesson may surprise you: LP(a), a hereditary lipoprotein rarely included in standard cholesterol tests. If heart disease runs in your family, you need to ask for it. Fit doesn't mean safe when your genes stack the deck.We also get practical about priorities. Blaise shares a simple framework—faith, me, we, family, work—that helps him make cleaner decisions, from delaying projects to catch a child's tournament to protecting date nights and bedtime rituals. On the career side, he explains how aligning with a company's culture and protecting your personal brand can turn hard pivots into new momentum, and he offers a look at how KellyMitchell blends IT staffing with solutions to serve innovative enterprises.If you're a parent who wants more presence, better health, and resilient leadership at home and at work, this one's for you. Listen, share with a friend who needs the LP(a) nudge, and tell us the one habit you'll change this week.

Friends of the Rosary,In today's reading (Luke 12:49-53), Christ the Lord declares his desire to spread eternal life among human beings through the fire of the Holy Spirit. He says,"I have come to set the earth on fire, and how I wish it were already blazing!"Jesus is the bearer of the divine life, the spreader of the fire that sets the world ablaze, and we are obligated to be a conduit of holiness.He came to torch the world with the heat and light of the divine Spirit, which is the love shared by the Father and the Son, the very inner life of God.Christ Jesus desires the world to be renewed and purified through this divine fire.He also says today:"Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but rather division!"Christ Jesus does bring true peace — peace with God (John 14:27) — but not surface-level harmony or cheap peace.The decision of whether to align with Christ or reject Him often causes division even within families. When some accept and others reject the call of the Gospel, and when God's truth confronts human resistance and sin, conflict arises.We pray today's Rosary, on the feast of St. John Capistrano, from Tempe, Arizona.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Thursday October 23, 2025XIX Week After Pentecost—In today's episode, the Scriptures call us to purity of heart, purpose, and devotion — reminding us that God looks not at our appearances or actions alone, but at the motives that drive them.

Ever feel like your body is waving a white flag while your to-do list keeps growing? Today's guest, health coach Amber Swift, shares her journey from ministry heartache and health crisis to hope, healing, and helping other overwhelmed moms find their way back to thriving. Amber's wisdom comes from walking through the fire herself. After years of saying "yes" to everything in ministry, raising five kids, and pouring herself out for others, her body said STOP. A trendy detox layered on top of hidden stress led to early-onset menopause, severe fatigue, sleepless nights, and so much more.  That breaking point became her turning point. ✨ Join Amber and me for this fun, honest, and hope-filled conversation. We talk about: ✅ The moment God met young Amber in her bedroom and became the Father she desperately needed ✅ Why the "oxygen mask principle" isn't selfish—it's survival (and biblical!) ✅ How a perfect storm can take you out.  ✅ Daily Practices that can help ground you. ✅ Why "one man's food is another man's poison" and how to find YOUR path to health If you're an overwhelmed mom who's been running on empty, feeling trapped in a season you didn't choose, or wondering if this exhaustion is just "the new normal"—this episode is your permission slip to stop settling and start taking the next step.  Don't give up. Don't just stay there. This is NOT God's best for you.

If you've ever ended your day feeling like you didn't do enough, or wondered why everyone else seems to have it all together while you're just trying to keep up, you're in the right place. Midlife can be messy and full of changes, comparisons, and that constant feeling that we're falling short. But what if there's another way to see yourself and your life? In this episode, I'm diving into a concept from the book The Gap and the Gain by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy. It's all about learning to measure your progress by how far you've come, not by how far you still have to go. And when you look at it through a faith lens, it's powerful and it shifts your focus from striving and comparison to gratitude, peace, and seeing the hand of God in your everyday life. So grab your coffee, take a deep breath, and join me for a real and grace-filled conversation. Together we'll talk about how to step out of the gap, live in the gain, and see yourself the way God sees you...loved, growing, and right where you're meant to be. Jennie Guinn is a Catholic life coach, retreat leader, and founder of Catholic Moms in the Middle.

Welcome to the Purple Patch Podcast! On the episode IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon welcomes guest and Purple Patch Athlete Marina Gelman. In 2000, at the age of 40, Marina Gelman lost her college-aged daughter in a tragic car accident. At the time, Gelman was a new fitness enthusiast and avid runner. Overcome by grief after the accident, however, she holed herself up for almost two years and focused only on work to numb the pain. Unfortunately, during this time, she abandoned her fitness goals, started smoking again after a long hiatus, and put on weight; reaching over 200 pounds. Ironically, it was another tragedy a short time later, the death of her Father from a heart attack, that inspired her to start training again. As it turns out, training non-stop turned out to be a blessing and a curse. Yes, she lost weight and found relief from her stress and heartache, but she was also overtraining…severely. Marina eventually succumbed to the devastating effects of chronic fatigue. Even the simple act of walking up a flight of stairs became unbearable.  In 2012, after hearing about Matt Dixon and Purple Patch from her running club, she reached out. At the time, she was 240 pounds, her heaviest. She explained to Matt that she had only two small goals: Recover from her chronic fatigue Run three miles again. That's it. Matt set her sights higher. Not only did he give her hope, but he also gave her a long-term structured plan and a wonderful community of support. Today, Marina Gelman is a Half-Ironman finisher, with her hopes set on finishing a full Ironman in the near future. She has also lost 105 pounds and trains daily, fully recovered from chronic fatigue.   This is a story of hope and promise. Adopting an athletic mindset, regardless of where you find yourself, just may be the one spark to save your life. “Losing a child is something unimaginable to go through,” says Marina. “Sport, in a way, and running saved me from sadness for the rest of my life.” If you have any questions about the Purple Patch program, feel free to reach out at info@purplepatchfitness.com Purple Patch and Episode Resources Check out our world-class coaching and training options: Book a complementary needs assessment coaching call: https://calendly.com/coaches-purplepatch/offseason-assessment-call Tri Squad: https://www.purplepatchfitness.com/squad 1:1 Coaching: https://www.purplepatchfitness.com/11-coached Run Squad: https://www.purplepatchfitness/com/run-squad Strength Squad: https://www.purplepatchfitness.com/strength-1 Live & On-Demand Bike Sessions: https://www.purplepatchfitness.com/bike Explore our training options in detail: https://bit.ly/3XBo1Pi  Live in San Francisco?

There are stories that break your heart — and then there are stories that break your trust in the entire system. The case of Aaron Spencer out of Lonoke County, Arkansas, does both. Spencer is the father who woke up one October night to find his 14-year-old daughter gone, a decoy hoodie left behind, and the man she was missing with — a convicted child predator named Michael Fosler — nowhere to be found. Fosler wasn't some random stranger. He was out on bond for a string of charges including internet stalking of a child and sexual indecency with a minor. The district attorney's office knew his record. The judge knew it. And they still let him walk free. That decision nearly cost a little girl her life. So when Aaron Spencer spotted that car with his daughter inside, he didn't see an opportunity for patience — he saw an active kidnapping in progress. He acted, confronting the predator who had taken his child. Fosler died at the scene. The daughter lived. Now, instead of being celebrated for saving her, Spencer is facing a second-degree-murder charge — prosecuted by the same system that failed to keep the predator locked up. And if that sounds backward to you, you're not alone. This episode dives deep into the legal, psychological, and moral collapse that allowed this to happen — how prosecutors, judges, and pre-trial services made decision after decision that put a child in harm's way. And how one father's act of courage exposed just how broken “justice” has become. Spencer's response? He's running for sheriff — against the department that arrested him — to make sure no other parent ever has to choose between obeying the law and saving their child. This isn't vigilante justice. It's survival. It's accountability. It's what happens when good people have had enough. #AaronSpencer #ArkansasJustice #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #ChildProtection #JusticeSystemFailure #ParentalInstinct #DAFail #HeroDad #LawAndOrderCollapse Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

It's one of those stories that makes you stop and ask — what the hell happened to justice? In Lonoke County, Arkansas, Aaron Spencer — a father who allegedly shot a known predator he found with his 14-year-old daughter — isn't being hailed as a hero. He's being prosecuted for second-degree murder. Meanwhile, the same system that failed to protect his child seems more determined to protect its own image. The man he shot, Michael Fosler, wasn't a mystery to law enforcement. His record included sexual indecency with a child and online predation charges. Yet somehow, he was still free — free enough to allegedly lure a teenage girl onto a dark rural road. Police say when Spencer found them together, he reacted the way any terrified father might. Now, that reaction could send him to prison. And here's where it gets even more surreal: Aaron Spencer is now running for sheriff — against the very department that arrested him. His campaign slogan: “Restoring Trust.” For many in Lonoke County, that message hits harder than any political ad. They see a broken system, a failed chain of protection, and a father who finally drew a line the system refused to. So why is this happening? Why does a man who defended his daughter face murder charges, while the institutions that failed her face none? Joining me is Defense Attorney and Former Prosecutor Bob Motta — host of Defense Diaries and BURIED: Inside the John Wayne Gacy Investigation — to unpack how a story of survival turned into a political and legal firestorm.

Rob Conti | Be StrongReconciliation begins with God; the cross exists not to convince the Father to love us, but because He already did. In this session, Rob will explore the ministry and message of reconciliation entrusted to every believer. This is a call to invest in others with clarity, courage, and patience.With the judgment seat in view, we'll look at how Paul shared the gospel—motivated by the fear of the Lord and the love of Christ. He spoke honestly about wrath and grace, without shame and without using manipulation.Rob will challenge common objections, name cultural distractions, and return to the simple gospel: Him for me. Jesus took our place so we could become the righteousness of God. That truth doesn't just save us, it sends us.2 Corinthians 5Romans 5Be Strong Men's ConferencePlease leave a review on Apple or Spotify to help others grow in their faith.

This section of The Evergetinos is among the most luminous and convicting in its entire corpus. It speaks with the voice of a Father who has entered deeply into the mind of Christ; where justice is transfigured by mercy, where the love of neighbor becomes inseparable from the love of God, and where even material loss becomes a gate to eternal life. The Elder's teaching exposes the great inversion of values that defines our time. In an age obsessed with self-preservation, power, and vengeance, the Christian is called not simply to resist these tendencies, but to live from an entirely different center. His measure of life is no longer self-interest or fear, but the eternal horizon of the Kingdom. The Elder begins with a piercing truth: God's commandments are light. It is only our attachment to self-will that makes them seem heavy. In modern terms, we could say that the weight we feel in forgiving enemies, in relinquishing possessions, or in enduring wrongs, comes not from the Gospel itself, but from our clinging to the illusion of control and possession. The commandment of Christ is light because it is love; and love is only heavy to one still bound by pride. The parable of the gem-engraver is a mirror for us. The man, faced with imminent danger, discards all his treasure to preserve a fleeting life. We, knowing the eternal stakes, cannot part with even trifles to save our souls. The Elder's irony cuts deeply: a worldly merchant becomes a philosopher in action, while we who claim the Kingdom behave as fools. Has the Christian fallen below the moral and spiritual clarity of the pagans who could endure insult or misfortune with composure? The Elder's words imply as much, for true wisdom is to value what endures, and to let go of all that perishes. We live amid a civilization that sanctifies vengeance, calls anger justice, and worships material gain. The Christian, if he is truly of Christ, stands as a contradiction to this world. His meekness will appear as weakness; his patience as passivity. Yet the Elder shows that it is precisely this self-emptying love that manifests divine power. To endure injury without resentment is to share in the Cross. To pray for the one who wrongs us is to participate in the compassion of the Crucified. The image of the Body, so carefully developed by the Elder, destroys the illusion of separateness that fuels violence. To harm my brother is to wound Christ Himself; to harbor anger is to cut myself off from the Body's life. The Christian is thus called to a supernatural realism: to perceive the unity of all in Christ and to respond to injury with the same tenderness one shows a diseased limb of one's own body. One does not amputate a member in anger; one tends it with healing concern. So must we treat the sinner who has harmed us. In the closing examples, the Elder incarnates this teaching. The monk who relinquishes his books rather than quarrel over them, the ascetic who frees the brigands who attacked him — these are not tales of naiveté but of divine wisdom. They show that peace of heart and fidelity to Christ outweigh any claim to justice or property. The true betrayal, as Abba Poimen tells the frightened hermit, is not the crime of the brigands but the monk's own fear and loss of faith. The victory of Christ is not in punishing evil but in overcoming fear through love. St. Ephraim's brief counsel at the end grounds this lofty teaching in ordinary charity. Justice begins in the smallest acts; in returning what is borrowed, in honesty, in remembering that we “owe no man anything, but to love one another.” The ascetical heroism of forgiveness begins with these humble fidelities. In an age of terror, noise, and material excess, the distinctive mark of the Christian is not moral superiority or rhetorical witness, but peace that disarms the world. The Evergetinos reminds us that the Gospel's revolution lies in meekness; in the refusal to let hatred dictate our actions or possessions define our worth. If we have not yet attained even the calm of the pagan sage or the detachment of the shipwrecked merchant, then our first step is repentance: to rediscover the lightness of the commandments and to trust that the Cross, embraced without vengeance, is still the truest power in the world. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:02:23 Bob Čihák, AZ: P. 291, G 00:08:34 Fr.

In this follow-up episode, Harmonee Wampler joins Michael & Deborah-Anne Velthuysen again to unpack what true spiritual mothering looks like in action. It's more than advice, prayer, or emotional support—it's partnership with the Holy Spirit to form Christ in others. True mothers don't just raise—they reproduce God's nature. In this episode, we dive into how spiritual mothers discern, correct, intercede, and release their spiritual sons and daughters into maturity—without manipulation or control. If you've ever asked, “What does a spiritual mother actually do?”, this one's for you.

Greek writer Herodotus "invented" history by turning away from myth to a new kind of writing. And although he wrote his Histories nearly 2,500 years ago, local author and classicist Emily Katz Anhalt argues that his example and prose are more relevant than ever.
