This week on “Henssler Money Talks,” we're digging into what Thanksgiving really costs in 2025. Walmart is rolling out a dinner basket that feeds 10 for under $4 per person—though it's a bit leaner than last year and noticeably missing those beloved King's Hawaiian rolls. Target's four-person meal rings in under $20, even as grocery prices climb 2.7%. We break down what all of this says about inflation, consumer behavior, and the state of the American wallet heading into the holidays.Then we turn to the markets. November has been a tougher month for stocks, and as third-quarter earnings season winds down, big names like Nvidia are still set to drive headlines. Can its results turn the week around? With the government shutdown now off the table, investors are also gearing up for a fresh round of economic data—including minutes from the Federal Reserve's October meeting that may offer clues about the path of interest rates. We unpack what investors should watch and what it all means for your portfolio.After the break, we dive into a headline-grabbing idea: 50-year mortgages. The Federal Housing Finance Agency is floating the concept, but would stretching a home loan over five decades make homebuying more accessible—or simply saddle borrowers with far more interest over time? We lay out the potential benefits, the pitfalls, and what this could mean for future homeowners.And in our year-end planning segment, we turn to single-member LLCs and gig-economy workers. If you work for yourself, now is the time to take stock of your 2025 tax picture. We'll walk through what counts as income, which expenses qualify as deductions, and how to maximize retirement contributions before the year wraps up.Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C. Smith, CFP®, CEPA, and D.J. Barker, CWS®, and Kelly-Lynne Scalice, a seasoned communicator and host, on Henssler Money Talks as they explore key financial strategies to help investors navigate market uncertainty. Henssler Money Talks — November 22, 2025  |  Season 39, Episode 47Timestamps and Chapters5:39: Gravy, Gobble, and Grocery Bills13:47: Earnings, Rates & Market Trends26:37: 50-Year Home Stretch41:31: Solo but Smart: Year-end Financial Moves for Your LLCFollow Henssler:  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HensslerFinancial/ YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/c/HensslerFinancial LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/henssler-financial/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hensslerfinancial/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hensslerfinancial?lang=en X: https://www.x.com/hensslergroup “Henssler Money Talks” is brought to you by Henssler Financial.

With Advent upcoming, we can make the most of the liturgical season as a means to prepare for the celebrations of Christmas. In this episode of On Mission, Chris Pierno, Sarah Scalfaro, and Fr. Frank Donio, S.A.C. discuss how we can use Advent as a means to spiritually and practically prepare for Christmas.Christmas quickly approaches and with it Advent. With the fast-paced nature of the time between Thanksgiving and Christmas, Advent can simply pass by. But if we intentionally use the four weeks of Advent, we can find more spiritual fulfillment when Christmas arrives. Advent is often considered the little Lent. What Lent like practices can we incorporate into our Advent observances? For example, we can emphasize more charitable works within our communities, we can fast, and we can take up certain prayer practices to help us pave the way for the Lord. View our Advent Resources page Related On Mission episodes:Feasts of AdventAdvent ResourcesAdvent From the Ad Infinitum blog:A Light in DarknessBeyond a TwinkleMore posts about the Advent Check out the main Saints and Feast Days websiteDownload the App on the App Store or Google Play  Follow us:The Catholic Apostolate CenterThe Center's podcast websiteInstagramFacebookApple PodcastsSpotify On Mission is produced by the Catholic Apostolate Center.

Pastor Phelps preaches on the Day of Atonement, showing how the details of the celebration pointed to Jesus as our ultimate sacrifice. Message originally preached Wednesday evening November 5, 2025.

In the sixth message of our series called Feasts, Mel teaches about the Feast of Atonement (Yom Kippur). This message centers on the profound significance of atonement as described in Leviticus 16 and its fulfillment in Jesus Christ. Drawing from Leviticus 23:26-32, Mel explains the ancient rituals of Yom Kippur, where the high priest, Aaron, entered the Most Holy Place to offer sacrifices for the sins of Israel, including the scapegoat that symbolically carried the people's sins into the wilderness. He highlights the gravity of approaching God's presence, referencing the deaths of Aaron's sons and the massive veil separating the Holy of Holies. Mel connects these Old Testament practices to the New Testament, emphasizing Hebrews 9:11-15 and 10:19-22, which portray Jesus as the ultimate High Priest and Lamb of God, whose sacrifice tore the veil and opened direct access to God's presence. He underscores that Christ's blood, unlike the temporary animal sacrifices, provides eternal redemption, inscribing believers' names in the Lamb's Book of Life (Revelation 3:5), inviting all into a reconciled relationship with God through faith.

  EXODUS 68 PART 2 If you have not listened to lesson 68 part 1 here's the link.  It is strongly suggested that you treat part 1 and part 2 as one unit.  In part 1 we study Exodus 28 but with a focus on John 5:39 where Jesus teaches us that scripture testifies of Himself.  All they had was the Hebrew Scriptures in Jesus' day.  No New Testament.  The first book of the New Testament, 1 Thessalonians, will not be written for another 20 years.  The first gospel perhaps written 30 years later.  So for them THEN Jesus is referring to the Old Testament or the Hebrew Scriptures with the TORAH, the first five books of the Bible, as the most important books at that time.  So, is it possible that Exodus 28 testifies of Yeshua HaMaschiach, Yeshua the Messiah, Jesus the Christ.  Chapter 28 is all about the High Priest and the details the Lord gives Moses about the special clothes of the High Priest and the priests.  But, Jesus is termed the High Priest in the book of Hebrews So, it seem possible that the scriptures of Exodus chapter 28 will testify of the Lord, Jesus, the Messiah and the High Priest.  The link for lesson 68 part 1 is shown below. Link - https://lightofmenorah.podbean.com/e/exodus-68-part-1-exod-281-5-41-43-we-are-priests-of-our-father/ The study of the special clothes of the High Priest and the priests is complicated and detailed.  There is so much more that I can teach in a 40-45 minute podcast or vidcast (vidcast = video podcast).  Shown below is the picture I used in the vidcast to review the high priestly garments.  It might prove helpful as you continue your study as you access the other resources I have included below. As I indicated in the video I am giving you links to other resources to use to study this topic that will add to your knowledge and enhance and expand your understanding. The first resource is the scholarly articles from the Temple Institute in Jerusalem.  This is an amazing orthodox Jewish educational website.  It deals with the Temple, the Feasts, the Red Heifer, and so much more.  The links below are to four separate articles that address the clothes of the High Priest.  I know you will find them awesome. Article 1 – https://templeinstitute.org/priestly-garments/ Article 2 – https://templeinstitute.org/priestly-garments-2/ Article 3 – https://templeinstitute.org/priestly-garments-3/ Article 4 – https://templeinstitute.org/priestly-garments-4/ Another great scholarly website is the IVP Bible Commentary – Old Testament.  They also have a New Testament commentary as well.  This resource is a must if you are serious in your study of the Bible.  Below is the link to the complete IVP Old Testament Commentary as a PDF version.  Simply access the link and go to page 108 in the PDF to find the commentary on Exodus 28.  Here's the link – https://wnlnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/The-IVP-Bible-Background-Commentary_-Old-Testament-PDFDrive.com-.pdf To complete your collection here's the link to the IVP New Testament Commentary in PDF format.  Link – https://wnlnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/The-IVP-Bible-Background-Commentary_-New-Testament-2nd-edition-PDFDrive.com-.pdf Another great resource that is a must for the serious disciple of Yeshua to learn His Word and enhance and expand your understanding is the International Bible Study Encyclopedia.  Here's the link to the article on the Urim and Thummim.  Link – https://www.internationalstandardbible.com/U/urim-and-thummim.html Here's the link to the home page for the International Bible Study Encyclopedia - https://www.internationalstandardbible.com/ Finally, there is a Christian website called “GotQuestions.org” and it provides another view of the priestly garments and the Urim and Thummim.  I access many times to get an orthodox Christian view of concepts in the Bible.  The links below to GotQuestions.org and self-explanatory.  https://www.gotquestions.org/priestly-garments.html https://www.gotquestions.org/urim-thummim.html https://www.gotquestions.org/ephod.html https://www.gotquestions.org/priestly-garments.html https://www.gotquestions.org/anointed-priest.html https://www.gotquestions.org/scarlet-thread.html   Rev.

In the fifth message of our series called Feast, Pastor Mel explains the Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah), a biblical holy day outlined in Leviticus 23:23-25 and Numbers 29:1-6, emphasizing its significance as a time of solemn rest, remembrance, and spiritual renewal, marked by the sounding of the shofar (ram's horn). He highlights its role as Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, initiating the 10 Days of Awe for introspection and repentance, and explores its multifaceted biblical symbolism—calling Israel to renewal, obedience, gathering, war, submission, worship, and repentance, as seen in scriptures like Exodus 19:16-20, Numbers 10:1-4, Joel 2:1, and others. Mel connects the feast to New Testament eschatology, particularly in 1 Corinthians 15:50-55 and 1 Thessalonians 4:15-18, where the trumpet blast signifies the transformation and gathering of believers at Christ's return, portraying Yom Teruah as both a historical observance and a prophetic foreshadowing of God's ultimate redemption and judgment.

In Day 59, we'll see God give His rules about keeping the Feasts of the Lord. God promises the land to the Israelites, and the people commit themselves to God. Exodus 23:1-9, 10-13, 14-19, 20-23, 24:1-8 #everydaychristians

In the fourth message of our series called Feasts, Pastor Mel explains the Jewish "Shavuot" which means "Weeks". God instituted the feasts so the people of Israel would celebrate His provision, memorialize significant events, and foreshadow things to come. The Feast of Weeks celebrates the giving of the Torah on Mount Sinai, as well as the wheat harvest in the land of Israel. Pentecost is the Greek name for the Feast of Weeks which occurs 50 days after the Feast of Firstfruits. God orchestrated the feast schedule so that a crowd of Jews from various nations were gathered into one place when the Holy Spirit was poured out on them. Robert Baer said, "Bethlehem was God with us, Calvary was God for us, and Pentecost is God in us."

Take Off the Masks: Choosing God's Reality Over Babylon's Illusions | KIB 503 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description There's a war on for your identity. In this Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake expose the spiritual "masks" the enemy uses—from sanitized cultural traditions to personal coping personas—and invite the Remnant to step into truth, transparency, and freedom in Christ. From Halloween's ancient roots to the modern pressure to "perform," we trace how unreality keeps believers stuck—and how the Holy Spirit heals, restores, and re-aligns us with God's design. We also pray for the grieving, cover the Remnant during this season, and offer practical next steps: renouncing occult doors, affirming our children's identity in Jesus, seeking wise counsel when needed, and learning to live mask-free before God and one another. "Therefore, having put away falsehood, let each one of you speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another." — Ephesians 4:25 (ESV) Highlights Why the Word of God is a war book—and why unreality is a weapon of the enemy Ancient and modern uses of masks (ritual, identity-shifting, and social control) The danger of "sanitized" paganism and why God says "Come out of her, my people" Parenting through cultural pressure—affirming identity in Christ Personal testimonies: fear of rejection, humor as a mask, and God's gentle dismantling Practical deliverance: renouncing doors, pleading the blood of Jesus, and wise counseling Helmet of salvation vs. masks of unreality—how to walk in truth

Thanks for listening.

In the third message of our series called Feasts, Pastor Mel explains the timeless biblical principles represented by the Hebrew feast of firstfruits. In scripture the Jewish feasts are instituted to celebrate God's provision, remember significant events, and foreshadow things to come. The feast of firstfruits represents the biblical principle of "firsts" which points to the reality of God's own preeminence. God is first whether we believe He is or not. Putting God first in our lives will facilitate a proper affection for everything else which is important to us. Like Abel in Genesis chapter 4, we must give our first and our best to God because we are our best selves when we put God first.

In part two of our series called Feasts, Pastor Mel explains the feast of unleavened bread. Jewish feasts were instituted to celebrate God's provision, remember significant events, and foreshadow things to come. Preaching through Exodus chapter 12, Mel shows how the feast of unleavened bread represented the Hebrews' separation from the sin of Egypt. Today we understand the doctrine of unleavened bread as a call to holiness. Paul elaborates on this call in 1 Corinthians 5:6-8 when he says, "Don't you realize that this sin is like a little yeast that spreads through the whole batch of dough? Get rid of the old 'yeast' by removing this wicked person from among you. Then you will be like a fresh batch of dough made without yeast, which is what you really are. Christ, our Passover Lamb, has been sacrificed for us. So let us celebrate the festival, not with the old bread of wickedness and evil, but with the new bread of sincerity and truth."

Pastor Phelps continues preaching through the feasts of Israel by discussing the importance of Pentecost for the believer. Message originally preached Wednesday evening October 8, 2025.

Thanks for listening.

In week one of our series called Feasts, Pastor Collin preaches about the most notable of all Judaic feasts, the feast of Passover. Collin explains how the Sabbath helped posture the peoples' spirits for participating in the Passover celebration. Christians should observe a Sabbath today because intentional rest helps prevent us from becoming distracted from the most important spiritual matters. The Passover commemorated the night when God's Spirit took all of the firstborn of Egypt, passing over the houses whose doorframes were marked by the blood of the lamb. As Christians, we celebrate Jesus Christ as our Passover Lamb, and because of His blood we are saved from our sins.

Thanks for listening.

What really is Pentecost? Is it a day, a denomination… or something far more powerful?In Week 2 of our Goosebumps series — “a not-so-spooky series on the Holy Spirit” — Pastor Jason unpacks the true meaning of Pentecost and how the Holy Spirit empowers believers to live righteously, supernaturally, and on mission.You'll discover how God used the Feasts of Passover, Pentecost, and Tabernacles to reveal His plan for salvation, empowerment, and eternity — and how the same Spirit that filled the early church is available to fill you today.

Pastor Phelps continues his series through the feasts of Israel by explaining the symbolic importance behind the feast of the first fruits. Message originally preached Wednesday evening October 1, 2025.

Sukkot (the Feast of Tabernacles) is the last of seven Feasts that God instructed the Jews to celebrate annually during the Old Testament era. It is taking place this year (October 6-13, 2025). There are five main levels of interpretation to all the Feasts: historical, practical, symbolical, spiritual, and prophetical. As we visit every level, we will discover the genius of the Everlasting Father who often hides His mysteries in this intriguing, symbolic way.Comparative religion website: www.thetruelight.net Ministry website: www.shreveministries.org The Catholic Project website: www.toCatholicswithlove.org (English & Spanish) Video channel: www.YouTube.com/mikeshreveministries All audio-podcasts are shared in a video format on our YouTube channel.

Key Takeaways Food serves as a powerful connection to cultural heritage and family traditions, preserving memories across generations. Starting with familiar ingredients and asking questions is the best approach when exploring a new cuisine like Mexican cooking. Breakfast holds special significance in Hispanic culture as a time for family connection and conversation, not just sustenance. Essential Mexican pantry staples like dried chilies and cilantro can transform everyday cooking with authentic flavors. Cultural traditions like Día de los Muertos help families maintain connections to their roots and honor those who came before. Passion projects that start as personal endeavors can evolve into meaningful careers when they authentically reflect one's heritage. Comparing unfamiliar ingredients to similar familiar ones (like cotija cheese to feta) helps overcome intimidation in trying new cuisines.

As we close out the revelation of Yom Kippur, we need to understand why we need to study these feasts.  On today's Podcast, we give key insights into why this action is so important to our walk in the Kingdom.  

Days of Awe & the Rhythm of the Kingdom: True Readiness, Not Date-Setting – KIB 499 Description In this Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake call the Remnant back into the rhythm of the Kingdom during the Days of Awe—away from hype, date-setting, and pagan substitutes. From Matthew 24 to Numbers 10, we explore daily practices that cultivate holiness, discernment, and protection for our homes, and we address the rising chaos around Halloween and other occult seasons. This is a sober call to walk in sync with Jesus, close the doors to Babylon, and live ready. Key themes: Day of Atonement & the believer's judgment, the “wheat and tares” reality, why hyper-grace and universalism miss the mark, how feasts tune us to Heaven's cadence, and practical morning/evening prayers to guard your home.

What do you do when it feels like your prayers aren't breaking through? In this week's Walk It Out Wednesday, Sarah Jakes Roberts revisits her message “Break the Barrier” and goes deeper into what true repentance looks like in our everyday lives. She unpacks the barriers that block our sound — shame, pride, ignoring conviction, clinging to old identities — and shows us how humility positions us for revival. Through practical teaching and real questions like “How do I move forward from shame?” and “What do I do when I feel stagnant?” we learn that God never disowns us, even in our failures, and His Spirit gives us the power to release a sound that heaven cannot ignore. Touré Roberts then adds a powerful reflection on the Feasts of the Lord and how their prophetic meaning points us back to Christ. Together, we closed our churchwide fast with communion — a reminder that this is a season for alignment, renewal, and fresh encounter with God. Don't miss this intimate and timely conversation.
