Podcasts about Forgiveness

The death of the Son of God is outrageous enough, and the glory of God that it upholds is great enough, that God is vindicated to forgive our sins.

John shares how his journey with his nonverbal son, who has profound autism, ultimately brought him to faith in Jesus Christ.Raised in a culturally Catholic home, John later explored other spiritual paths but remained disconnected from biblical Christianity. When disability-related challenges affected his marriage, finances, career, and family life, John realized that he needed more than reassuring words—he needed genuine community, practical support, and lasting hope.That search led him to a Christian men's group, where believers welcomed him, listened to his struggles, and prayed for him. On one unforgettable stormy night in 2012, John surrendered his life to Jesus.John also discusses his memoir, Faith Like My Father, and the surprising significance of two words repeatedly spoken by his earthly father: “Don't panic.” Years later, while hearing a message based on Jesus' teaching about worry in the Sermon on the Mount, John finally understood those words. That revelation helped him release years of anger and forgive his father.In this conversation, you will hear about:• Raising a child with profound autism and significant support needs• Finding Christ during the lowest season of John's life• Why Christian community must offer more than comforting words• The Church's responsibility to welcome and support people with disabilities• John's work in disability advocacy and disability ministry• Trusting God when faith does not immediately remove life's problems• Remaining obedient through divorce, single parenthood, and uncertainty• Overcoming anger before it becomes deeply rooted bitterness• Forgiving those who have wounded us• Recognizing God's providence in painful circumstances• The message behind John's memoir, Faith Like My FatherJohn's testimony reminds us that following Jesus does not mean every problem disappears. It means we no longer face our problems alone. God remains present, orders our steps, and can use even our most painful experiences for His redemptive purposes.If you are walking through a valley, caring for someone with a disability, struggling with anger, or wondering where God is in your circumstances, John's story will encourage you to keep seeking Christ and refuse to panic.Connect with John Fela and learn more about Faith Like My Father:https://johnfela.comKeywordsJohn Fela, Faith Like My Father, TS Wright, Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast, disability ministry, disability advocacy, autism ministry, profound autism, severe autism, nonverbal autism, special needs parenting, Christian parenting, fathers of children with disabilities, Christian testimony, finding faith in Jesus, faith during trials, trusting God in crisis, Christian forgiveness, overcoming anger, healing from bitterness, God's providence, Christian obedience, spiritual perseverance, Christian community, inclusive church, special needs ministry, Joni and Friends, Key Ministry, Sermon on the Mount, don't panic, hope in Jesus, faith through suffering

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260813dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. Romans 8:31-33 Without a Doubt! There are very few things you can say without a doubt. When making plans, you can’t say they will happen without a doubt. When someone asks you a difficult question, can you always answer confidently, without a doubt? Thankfully, we can answer life’s most crucial question without a doubt, and not because we’re so smart, but because God is so great! Life’s most crucial question is, “Am I right with God?” or “Will God let me into heaven?” Some people struggle to answer those questions without a doubt. Those doubts come from the reality of sin. God is holy and perfect; we are not. Just one sin is enough to bar us from heaven, and we've committed more than one. More than we can count. It would be presumptuous to believe we can simply walk through heaven’s gates, except that God assures us of this without doubt or hesitation. God is for us! He’s on our side. He says that our sins are forgiven. This removes any and every shred of doubt. Who can bring any charges against us that will stick? Our own doubts and guilty conscience might try to tell us we aren’t forgiven or worthy, but they don’t call the shots! God does. He has justified us. That means he declares, with absolute authority, that we are not guilty because he’s forgiven all our sins. And if any doubt should remain, here’s proof: God did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all. This is how the guilty are declared innocent and the accused become acquitted, without a doubt. God spared no expense to make things right between you and him. God left heaven and carried a cross to make heaven your home. It’s yours through Christ, without a doubt. Prayer: Lord, spare me from doubt and temptations to justify myself and let my confidence rest on Christ alone who has already justified me. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

In this episode, Dr. Gladden speaks with Dr. Hany Demian about the shift from reactive medicine to prevention, personalization, and longevity-focused care. Dr. Hany shares how his journey through breast surgery, emergency medicine, and chronic pain management led him to a more systems-based approach to health, aging, and healing. They discuss why aging may be better understood as a condition, how patient empowerment changes outcomes, and why nervous system regulation, stress reduction, and individualized care matter as much as diagnostics and therapies.

X2M.261 Cour | Wisdom for the Great Homecoming At Cour, CR21 enters the ceremonial court between lawful approach and inward habitation. Jeremiah 31 opens the gathering with the Father's promise to bring Israel home, reunite North and South, receive Ephraim with compassion, and establish a new covenant within the mind and heart. This homecoming requires more than physical return. The old record of accusation must lose its authority. Forgiveness does not deny history, but it prevents former sins, injuries, and inherited burdens from continuing to govern the household. Ecclesiastes then exposes the futility of trying to secure permanence through achievement, wealth, pleasure, work, or escape. Yet futility is not the final word. It clears the court so that finite life can be received from God as gift, filled with meaning rather than driven by grasping. David fought until the enemies were subdued. Solomon received rest and began to build. In the same way, the Davidic heart prepares the ground for the Solomonic mind, but wisdom must never outrun love. True wisdom sees from the Father's perspective, discovers an unexpected solution within the apparent obstacle, and remains tender enough to be changed. Cour therefore becomes the court of reconciliation: the place where exile ends inwardly before habitation begins outwardly. Here the divided family learns to live from forgiveness, sustained victory, attentive listening, and the reality of the age to come within the present world. The gathering closes at the Table with the bread and cup of the new covenant. What God has forgiven no longer defines His children. What appeared impossible becomes the threshold of wisdom, and a people once scattered begin becoming capable of living at home together. Scriptures include Jeremiah 31; Ecclesiastes 1–2; 1 Kings 5; Psalm 110; Hebrews 1 and 8; and James 1. Galactic Progeny | Stardyne

Makenna Gibbons became part of one of Utah's most public scandals when the “Mormon swinging” story exploded online in 2022. Behind the viral headlines, Makenna was simultaneously dealing with infidelity, divorce, motherhood, public scrutiny, and the collapse of the life she knew.In this episode, Makenna sits down with Jimmy to tell her side of the story and, more importantly, share what happened after the headlines faded. She talks about the boundaries she wishes she had protected, how group dynamics and alcohol contributed to decisions she regrets, the painful process of rebuilding her identity, and what years of therapy taught her about accountability without shame.Makenna also opens up about rebuilding a healthy co-parenting relationship with her ex-husband, getting remarried, learning to trust herself again, and why she believes even the darkest seasons eventually end.This conversation is ultimately about what happens when your worst mistakes become public—and how you rebuild a life you're proud of afterward.Follow Makenna Gibbons: IG

Read OnlineLimitless ForgivenessPeter approached Jesus and asked him, “Lord, if my brother sins against me, how often must I forgive him? As many as seven times?” Jesus answered, “I say to you, not seven times but seventy-seven times.” Matthew 18:21–22In the Book of the Prophet Amos, a poetic formula is repeated: “For three crimes of Damascus, and now four—I will not take it back…” (cf. Amos 1). By the time of Jesus, rabbinic tradition had adopted the interpretation of this passage to mean that God forgives three times, but not four and, therefore, so should we: “When a person commits a transgression the first time, he is forgiven; a second time, he is forgiven; a third time, he is forgiven; but the fourth time, he is not forgiven” (Yoma 86b).In today's Gospel, Peter's question is generous but still rooted in human calculation. His question follows immediately after Jesus teaches about fraternal correction. Peter, taking in this instruction and knowing the rabbinic tradition, more than doubles the expected number of times to forgive, suggesting seven. But Jesus immediately corrects him—not to reject his generosity, but to elevate it: “I say to you, not seven times but seventy-seven times.”This phrase, “seventy-seven times,” is not a literal number; it signifies that forgiveness must be limitless, reflecting the boundless mercy of God. It is not merely a command to repeat acts of forgiveness, but an invitation to let our hearts be formed by Divine Mercy.The parable Jesus tells in response to Peter's question offers deeper insight into His meaning. It echoes the fifth petition of the Lord's Prayer: “Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.” A king has a servant who owes him a huge amount—an unpayable debt, symbolizing the incalculable weight of our sin before God. When the servant begs for patience, the king goes beyond all expectation: he forgives the entire debt out of compassion. But that same servant, having just received mercy, encounters a fellow servant who owes him only a small amount. Rather than extending the mercy he himself had received, he becomes violent, demanding repayment and imprisoning the man. The king, upon hearing this, is enraged—not merely because of injustice, but because of the servant's utter failure to mirror the mercy he had been shown. Jesus concludes with a sobering warning: “So will my heavenly Father do to you, unless each of you forgives his brother from his heart.”Limitless forgiveness is very difficult unless we have a deep and abiding gratitude for the Divine Mercy God has shown us. Our debt before God is incalculable. We could never repay it on our own. Though we might be tempted to think, “I'm a good person,” Scripture reminds us: “All have sinned and are deprived of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). Without Jesus taking on our human condition and paying the debt of our sin through His suffering and death, we could not be saved. Grasping this truth and allowing it to penetrate our hearts is essential to living the Christian life.Only when we become keenly aware of the mercy God has poured into our lives can we foster true gratitude. And it is that gratitude that must inspire and compel us to offer the same limitless mercy to everyone who sins against us—no exceptions, no conditions. Just as we have been forgiven, so must we forgive, from the heart.Reflect today on how deeply you are aware of the mercy God has shown you. Do you take it for granted, or have you allowed it to transform you? Consider especially those you struggle to forgive. Let gratitude for God's mercy soften your heart. From that softened heart, choose to forgive—not seven times, but seventy-seven times and beyond. In doing so, you will reflect the very heart of God and become a vessel of His saving grace in the world.Most merciful Jesus, there is no limit to the love and forgiveness You continuously offer us. We are indebted to You with our very lives. Please give me the grace I need to be truly grateful for Your Divine Mercy and to express that gratitude by showing the same limitless mercy to all. Use me, dear Lord, as a vessel of Your grace and tender care. Jesus, I trust in You.  Image: Jesus and Saint Peter, by Jean-Baptiste CapronnierSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc.

forgiveness requires a willingness to move beyond our negative feelings. fortunately, we are predisposed to heal + forgiveness is a big part of that. we just need to create the conditions to allow our natural mechanisms to function. R — Recall the Hurt: Honestly remember the transgression, without minimizing or maximizing it. This is not rumination but a clear-eyed acknowledgment of what happened and how it affected you.E — Empathize: Try to understand the transgressor's perspective — their state of mind, history, and circumstances — not to excuse but to humanize. Research shows that perspective-taking is a crucial mediator of forgiveness: it becomes harder to sustain pure resentment toward someone you genuinely understand.A — Altruistic Gift: Recall a time you needed forgiveness from someone and received it, or a time you were the one who caused harm. Recognize forgiveness as a gift you can offer — not because it's deserved but because you know what it's like to need it. This step frames forgiveness as a generous act rather than a capitulation.C — Commit: Make a public or written commitment to forgiving — journaling about it, telling a trusted person, or simply writing a statement. Commitment makes the decision more durable and resistant to resentment's return.H — Hold onto Forgiveness: Expect that resentment will return and prepare to recommit to forgiveness when it does. Forgiveness is often a process rather than a one-time achievement; renewing the commitment when resentment resurfaces is normal and expected.THE SOURCE:https://positivepsychology.com/neuroscience-of-forgiveness/https://www.neurologylive.com/view/neurobiology-forgivenesshttps://www.simplypsychology.com/articles/forgiveness-psychology-scienceRead Julie's Medium Blog.Support JULIE (and the show!)Support + get some bonus stuff over on PATREON.Get an occasional personal email from me: www.makeyourdamnbedpodcast.comTune in on INSTAGRAM AND YOUTUBE or TIKTOK.Info on War Tax Resistance.Donate to the Palestinian Children's Relief Fund and the Sudan Relief FundThe opinions expressed by Julie Merica and Make Your Damn Bed Podcast are intended for entertainment purposes only.

DESCRIPTION Biblical leadership and spiritual warfare were never meant to be separated. From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture repeatedly connects godly authority with the responsibility to guard, protect, preserve, and advance what God has established. In this powerful Biblical Life teaching, Dr. Michael Lake examines a truth the modern Church desperately needs to recover: Every legitimate biblical leader is called to stand under God's authority—and biblical authority carries with it the responsibility to resist darkness. The shepherd's staff provides a powerful picture of this principle. It steadies the leader's walk, guides those who follow, and can become a weapon when the flock is threatened. That pattern begins in Genesis. Adam was commissioned to exercise dominion, guard what God entrusted to him, and extend God's order throughout the earth. Yet the spiritual conflict was already underway. Leadership was necessary precisely because there was something that needed to be guarded. This principle continues throughout Scripture. ·      Noah protected humanity through obedience. ·      Abraham defended the covenant family. ·      Moses confronted Pharaoh. ·      Joshua led Israel against the corruption of Canaan. ·      David defended Israel from its enemies. ·      Nehemiah rebuilt Jerusalem while preparing the people to fight. And Jesus Christ—the perfect Shepherd, Leader, and Warrior—came "doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil" (Acts 10:38). The modern Church has often separated leadership from spiritual warfare. The result has been weakened families, passive believers, exhausted pastors, confused authority structures, and Christians who have never been taught how to stand their ground spiritually. That must change. Dr. Lake examines how biblical leadership establishes God's order, while spiritual warfare protects it. You will discover why: ·      Leadership begins with submission to God's authority. ·      The home is one of the first places biblical leadership must operate. ·      Husbands and wives were designed to function together under God's order. ·      Spiritual warfare did not begin in Genesis 3—the conflict was already present in Genesis 1. ·      Adam was commissioned to rule, guard, and preserve what God entrusted to him. ·      The shepherd's staff symbolizes both leadership and warfare. ·      Satan consistently targets leaders because destroying leadership scatters those under its protection. ·      The fivefold ministry carries specific responsibilities in the spiritual conflict. ·      Truth, holiness, prayer, obedience, discernment, and forgiveness are powerful weapons of biblical leadership. ·      Spiritual authority grows as believers themselves submit to the authority of Christ. ·      The name of Jesus must govern us before we presume to exercise His authority against the enemy. One of the most important principles in this teaching is simple: ·      Because I am under authority, I can move in authority. ·      Spiritual authority is not bravado. ·      It is not yelling at demons. ·      It is not religious theatrics. It flows from submission to Jesus Christ, obedience to the Word of God, holiness, covenant faithfulness, and a life increasingly governed by the character of Christ. The days ahead will require believers who know how to lead themselves, protect their households, discern deception, stand on biblical truth, and resist the kingdom of darkness. It is time to take up the shepherd's staff again.  It is time to LEAD.  It is time to GUARD.  It is time to STAND.  And when necessary, it is time to FIGHT. The Bible is not merely a devotional book.  It is also a war book. And God is preparing His remnant to understand how biblical leadership and spiritual warfare function together. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ HELP US REACH AND EQUIP THE REMNANT If this teaching strengthens you, please: ✓ LIKE this video—it helps YouTube recommend this teaching to others. ✓ SUBSCRIBE to Biblical Life TV and turn on notifications so you don't miss future teachings. ✓ SHARE this message with pastors, fathers, husbands, ministry leaders, intercessors, and believers who understand that the Church must recover biblical leadership. ✓ COMMENT BELOW: What area of biblical leadership do you believe the Church most urgently needs to recover?

What about fasting? Why did people fast and is it required for believers today? I forgave a debt but still hope it's paid in the future. Is that okay? Are we robbing God if we don't tithe 10%? What does New Testament giving look like?

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260812dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28 It’s All Good! “It’s all good!” someone might say. We might tell ourselves, “It’s all good,” even when it’s not. Even when it doesn’t seem good, we try to remain optimistic, look at the brighter side, and have faith that it will all work out. The Christian faith is not merely faith that all things will work out. It’s faith in the God and Savior who works out all things for eternal good. This Bible verse is not a promise that only good and pleasant things will happen to you if you just love God enough. It’s a reminder that those who love God and are loved by God will experience all sorts of things that don’t seem good and pleasant. When something challenging or tragic comes into your life, you might be tempted to wonder, “Does God have something against me? Is that why bad things are happening?” You may doubt that God is really on your side. But here is his assurance: He's not working against you; he’s working for you and for your good! Jesus shows us how true this promise is. No one in the world would naturally see someone nailed to a cross and think, “That’s good.” Yet, in that way, God was at work to accomplish the greatest good—the forgiveness of our sins and eternal life with him. That’s good! When things happen in life that the world does not see as good, we have God’s promise that even this he will work out for good. It could be good personally for you because the thing that initially causes pain or sorrow could be God’s way of shaping you, strengthening you, or sparing you from greater physical or spiritual danger. It could bring good into the lives of others around you. If you’ve been through something, you are better equipped to encourage someone else who’s going through it too. It really is all good when we find ourselves in the loving arms of the God who works in all things for our eternal good! Prayer: Lord Jesus, give me faith that knows that in all things you are at work for your good and eternal purposes. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

On this week's rerun episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Eyedress. Born in Manila, Eyedress came to the US at five years old, moving through Arizona and California — discovering punk and skate culture along the way — before his family returned to the Philippines when he was 15. After years of self-releasing lo-fi bedroom recordings and slowly building an online following, he broke through with 2020's Let's Skip to the Wedding, which spawned global hits "Jealous" and "Romantic Lover" and eventually led to a deal with RCA. Since then, he's collaborated with artists like Mac DeMarco, King Krule, and Harmony Korine, carving out a sound that's equal parts woozy, nostalgic, and entirely his own. Eyedress and Joel dig into his journey from a rough childhood to building a life and family on his own terms, the anxiety that still follows him even after years of success, and why he believes the biggest leap of faith he ever took was also the best decision he ever made.

This weekend's theme on "The Way" is "Before the Fall, I AM", and in this opening session, Jason Warwick leads a powerful 'Levels of Mind' session. The episode begins by emphasizing the importance of true heart expansion—using a striking metaphor of running toward thunder and dissolving into the light to demonstrate who we are before the separation.  During the session, Jason helps a participant named Tanya explore her feelings of being trapped, powerless, and afraid due to her current living situation. Tanya shares that she has been trying to sell or rent her house, but feels stuck and deeply disturbed by her neighbor's dog barking all day. Through their dialogue, Jason helps her uncover deeper beliefs tied to this situation, including a profound sense of guilt and the subconscious thought that she is being punished. By guiding Tanya through these layers, Jason demonstrates how the 'Levels of Mind' worksheet can serve as a tool to release these deeply held beliefs and choose peace over worldly attachments.  To further illustrate this process of letting go, Jason brings on Juli, a community member who shares her own experience of selling a business in Australia. Juli discusses the guilt, unworthiness, and resistance she faced when trying to negotiate a fair price with her ex-partner. She explains how she eventually surrendered the outcome to the Holy Spirit, which not only allowed the sale to unfold easily but also freed her mind to uncover even deeper beliefs. Through these real-life examples, this episode offers profound insights into how we can navigate our own challenges by prioritizing peace of mind and trusting in divine guidance.  These gatherings take place all summer until September 2026 and include comedy, teachings, films, music, panel discussions, and live Q&A sessions with David Hoffmeister.Register for The Way for free here: https://programs.the-christ.net/courses/the-way-of-the-mystic If you want to learn more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, visit https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events Recording Date: Online, Saturday, August 7, 2026Follow us on:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister https://www.youtube.com/@LivingMiraclesFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles:https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsLearn more about A Course in Miracles:https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish YouTube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWwDavid's Portuguese YouTube Channel is:https://www.youtube.com/@davidhoffmeisterucem

Forgiveness of sins is found only in Jesus Christ - the risen, exalted and worthy King. Pastor Micah preaches at King's Cross Church.

Why are we so mad at each other in America right now? Angry people all have one thing in common, and it's destroying our culture — even inside the church.In this episode of Brad talks about why our culture (inside and outside the church) is filled with fragile people who hold grudges, seek revenge, and call names. Angry people are fragile people. Some of the signs of angry, fragile people may surprise you. The question is: how do we, as followers of Jesus respond to the epidemic of anger? Brad shares two powerful stories that may change your mind about the power of theenemy to blind us to our unforgiveness and the power of God to help us forgive. Forgiveness is the antidote to anger and fragility, but it's not something that comes easily. Brad reveals the key that unlocks the door to forgiveness—the kind offorgiveness that sets your soul free. God really is the issue in every issue—especially this one.If this encourages you, please like, subscribe, and hit the bell so you don't miss futureepisodes.

Fr. Zechariah Lynch joins me to talk about something a lot of people would rather forget: what the COVID years actually did to us. We get into fear, mandates, "misinformation," the pressure to conform, and the damage done to people who simply asked questions. Fr. Zechariah also gets personal about what he and his family went through within the Church during that time and why he describes some of it as psychological abuse. We also talk about repentance, forgiveness, and how we move forward without pretending none of it happened. Read Fr.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260811dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!” Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?” And when they climbed into the boat, the wind died down. Then those who were in the boat worshiped him, saying, “Truly you are the Son of God.” Matthew 14:29-33 Why Do You Doubt? Have you ever been worried about something and doubted that it would be ok? But then you get through it, and you wonder “why did I doubt?” The answer is simple: because you didn’t know the outcome. You didn’t have hindsight to know it would all work out. Jesus asked Peter that simple question after he rescued him from the stormy waters. Why do you doubt? The answer was simple: because Peter took his eyes off Jesus. When you take your eyes of faith off Jesus and you look to your own abilities or only see the storms of life instead of the power and promise of Jesus, doubts surge. It can seem like we can’t keep our heads above water. It can seem like we are drowning. If we stop looking to Jesus as the answer to life’s biggest problem, which is sin, we truly are in over our heads with no way to bail out. But Jesus came to the rescue. He saved us from drowning in our sins and doubts, and he preserves our lives so that neither doubt nor death overtakes us. After Jesus rescued Peter, he got in the boat with Peter. Jesus doesn’t leave us alone to be tossed around by chance. He remains with us to bring a steady calm to a turbulent life. He keeps us afloat with his love and promise. There’s no need to doubt. Even when you can’t see him physically, Jesus strolls across the storms of life. Jesus gives us the foresight to know that in all things, he is with us, keeping us afloat by his grace. He gives us the faith that triumphs over doubt and the foresight to know that one day we will be with him in heaven. Prayer: Lord Jesus, forgive my doubts, calm my fears, and uplift me by your grace. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS. This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 United States License.

307. Why Is Forgiveness So Hard After Child Loss? Freedom From the Weight Somewhere in your grief, there is a name. A name that still makes your chest tighten the moment you hear it. Maybe it belongs to someone who caused what happened. Maybe it's someone who never showed up. And maybe... the hardest name to sit with is your own. In this episode, Teresa names the weight you carry when forgiveness feels impossible — and shares the story of the bitterness she carried for three years after Andrew went to heaven, and how it finally lifted. In this episode, you'll discover... Why the thoughts that begin with "I should have..." are built on a standard no mother could meet The three things forgiveness never asks of you What to do when the apology you deserved never comes The kind of forgiveness many parents don't even recognize — and the door that opens when you name it Forgiveness is an invitation... and a process. God is not rushing you. But you don't have to carry this weight alone. ✨ Calming the Chaos is Teresa's self-paced course for grieving moms — walking you through the weight step by step, at your pace.

Fr. Mike expands on the passage we read in Proverbs, and emphasizes how important it is to surround ourselves with people who are striving towards holiness. He also reflects on the book of Isaiah, and how these last couple of stories show that God's justice is always aligned with his infinite mercy. Today's readings are Isaiah 63-64, Ezekiel 21-22, and Proverbs 13:17-20. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.
