Join us as Pastor Eric continues through our Study of I Peter. How do we live in freedom because of Christ, but not live in sin?

Welcome to this explosive edition of Light ‘Em Up!In these critical and delicate times that we find ourselves in — democracy is in clear and present danger.As nothing feels certain or safe and everything appears to be in “transition” we interrogate and examine the Trump Administration and its efforts to suspend the “great writ” of Habeas corpus.Habeas corpus is a legal doctrine whose original purpose was to contest detention by the king. The origins of the writ, or “written order” (its Latin name means, loosely, “produce the body”), can be traced to 13th century England.On June 15, 1215, at Runnymede, the barons who had banded together to impose legal restrictions on King John's power forced him to affix his seal to the Magna Carta.One of its curbs on the sovereign's power reads, in part, “No free man shall be seized or imprisoned…except by the lawful judgment of his equals or by the law of the land.”The writ of habeas corpus appears in the U.S. Constitution. Article 1, section 9, clause 2 includes this single sentence: “The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it.”Habeas corpus requires a jailer to produce a prisoner in a court of law so the basis for detention can be reviewed. The Constitution presupposes this right, but its use has been sharply restricted during past wars.Fast forward to the present, as Donald Trump continues on his “revenge tour” — his administration has shown itself to be big on conducting legal proceedings without due process for the defendants it pursues, just as George W. Bush did with “enemy combatants” at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, post 9-11.The Trump White House continues to break things like “Wreck it Ralph”— and has floated the idea of suspending Habeas corpus in the context of an “alien invasion” as it pertains to immigration, sparking widespread and grave concerns about the erosion of fundamental rights and the separation of powers.With mass deportations taking place without due process and the suspension of Habeas corpus, the rule of law and democracy itself is under a serious threat.While the Constitution allows for the suspension of Habeas corpus in cases of rebellion or invasion where the public safety is at stake, it is a power that must be exercised sparingly and only in extraordinary circumstances. Circumstances that we clearly are NOT in.With this probing, penetrating and pointed look … we ask out loud if we are on a collision course with the tyranny that brought about a coup d' état in Chile in 1973, where the military ousted then President Allende, General Agusto Pinochet seized power, democracy collapsed and repression, murder and great suffering followed (all backed and funded by the US CIA & State Department in the Nixon administration).As we challenge you to think critically, we probe further, examining the historical suspension of Habeas corpus, we think you'll be surprised to hear that one of the Presidents considered to be the “GOAT” (greatest of all time) suspended the writ of Habeas corpus, and we'll deliver the facts not the fiction surrounding this.We'll itemize some of the “pitfalls” and potential terrible consequences of decisions such as this, as we've learned through a FOIA request that the FBI has ordered its agents to scale back white-collar crime investigations to pursue more immigration crime instead.The rule of law and democracy are endangered!Previous Supreme Courts have held in reverence and referred to Habeas corpus as, “the fundamental instrument for safeguarding individual freedom against arbitrary and lawless state action.”The current Supreme Court has been at best tepid in its support and defense of the U.S. ConWe want to hear from you!

This week on the Style Chat Podcast, we're getting real about Amazon fashion dupes — and it's not all lace tops and “look for less” reels. Join stylists Sarah Liller and Tami Daylami as we unpack the truth behind those seemingly amazing $30 copycat pieces and explore what's really going on behind the scenes.Inspired by yet another viral dupe reel showing a near-identical Amazon version of a Free People lace top, we dive deep into the ethics, quality, and impact of fashion knockoffs. What does it mean when a top costs less than your lunch? Who's paying the real price? And does it actually feel good to wear something that looks luxe but was made in questionable conditions?We talk: The psychology behind wanting a “steal” The often-overlooked importance of fabric and fit Fast fashion's environmental and human costs The difference between inspiration and outright design theft Why chasing trends leads to overconsumption and wardrobe clutter Better alternatives (hello, vintage and resale!) And yes, we fully understand the allure of convenience and the thrill of scoring a deal — we've been there! But as stylists who've spent years helping clients build wardrobes they love, we're here to say: there is a better way to shop, dress, and express yourself. And it starts with being a little more thoughtful about what ends up in your cart (and your closet).Whether you're a fashion lover trying to shop more consciously, or you've ever been tempted by a “dupe” and wondered what the big deal was — this episode is for you.Tune in for a stylish, honest, and surprisingly fun conversation that just might change the way you shop.

In 1892, Homer Plessy, a mixed race shoemaker in New Orleans, was arrested, convicted and fined $25 for taking a seat in a whites-only train car. This was not a random act. It was a carefully planned move by the Citizen's Committee, an activist group of Free People of Color, to fight a new law being enacted in Louisiana which threatened to re-impose segregation as the reforms made after the Civil War began to dissolve.The Citizen's Committee recruited Homer Plessy, a light skinned black man, to board a train and get arrested in order to push the case to the Supreme Court in hopes of a decision that would uphold equal rights. On May 18, 1896 the Supreme Court ruled on the Plessy v. Ferguson case establishing the "separate but equal" doctrine, upholding the constitutionality of racial segregation. The case sharply divided the nation racially and its defeat “gave teeth” to Jim Crow. The “separate but equal” decision not only applied to public transportation it spread into every aspect of life — schools, public toilets, public eating places. For some 58 years it was not recognized as unconstitutional until the Brown v. Public Education case was decided in 1954.Homer Plessy died in 1925 and his conviction for breaking the law remained on his record. In 2022, 125 years after his arrest, the Louisiana Board of Pardons voted unanimously to recommend that Homer Plessy be pardoned for his crime. The pardon was spearheaded by Keith Plessy, a descendent of Homer Plessy, and Phoebe Ferguson, the great-great granddaughter of John Howard Ferguson, the convicting judge in the case. The two have joined forces digging deep into this complex, little known story – setting the record straight, and working towards truth and reconciliation in the courtrooms, on the streets and in the schools of New Orleans and across the nation.The Plessy and Ferguson Foundation is responsible for erecting plaques throughout New Orleans commemorating African American historic sites and civil rights leaders.

Listen to a 2022 conversation with David Andrichick, owner of the Chatterbox, an important jazz club located in Downtown Indianapolis. The Chatterbox made national news this week when a video depicting a dispute between the club's bartender and a Trump supporter went viral online. But many news reports and social media posts about the incident left out crucial context about the club's history. Here in Indiana, the Chatterbox is known for celebrating the rich jazz history of Indianapolis and embracing a diverse community of patrons. The club's reputation as a destination for live music has attracted notable patrons, including the Rolling Stones, Terence Blanchard, and Wynton Marsalis. In addition to music, the club has also hosted poets, including the world-renowned Etheridge Knight, who led his Free People's Poetry Workshop at the Chatterbox.  When WFYI's Kyle Long spoke with Andrichick in 2022, he was celebrating his 40th anniversary as owner of the Chatterbox, and they discussed the club's history in-depth.

Member of U.K. Parliament and military veteran Tom Tugendhat was recently in Washington and was kind enough to join Ryan for a short but weighty conversation. Tugendhat chaired the Foreign Affairs Select Committee between 2017 and 2022 and then served in the previous government as minister of state for security. They discussed his time in government as well as the landscape of threats, including (not surprisingly) Russia — and how the war might best end — as well as China, informed by his recent trip to Taiwan. Please note this episode was recorded before the Munich Security Conference. 

The year of Jubilee is one of the most significant and inspiring concepts we see in Scripture. The promise that debts will be cancelled for the good others isn't just what Jesus eventually did for us, but what we're called to do for one another.

Lauren Caris Cohan is a filmmaker and the chief creative officer of the chic and sustainable womenswear brand Reformation. Lauren got her start as a styling assistant at Free People in Philadelphia in the late 2000s, eventually working her way up to the title of artistic director. While looking to pursue a newfound interest in screenwriting, she was given carte blanche to create a series of narrative short films for the brand. In 2017, she left the company to look for new opportunities to explore filmmaking. She consistently worked on her projects, creating short films, writing scripts, and co-founding a creative services agency called Lolly Would. In 2017, she co-founded the industry-disrupting lingerie brand Cuup, again bringing her distinctive creative flair to craft the storytelling around the start-up. In 2020, she was brought in by Reformation to consult on projects, and in 2022, she was appointed the role of chief creative officer.

Toshi Jamang1 Peter Becoming Like Jesus seriesNov 17thAbout the series -1 Peter is a letter to 1st-century Christians living on the edges of the Roman Empire, whom Peter calls “exiles” or “strangers.” Though outsiders in society, they are insiders in God's Kingdom, born into a living hope through Jesus' resurrection. Peter encourages them to rejoice in suffering, love deeply, and live holy lives. He challenges them to honor everyone, even those who treat them harshly, as they follow Jesus' example. Underneath his encouragement and instruction is the underlying assumption that disciples of Jesus may share in his suffering, but they will also share in his resurrection! This series invites us to follow in Jesus' footsteps, becoming like Jesus in our families, workplaces, and communities.

Do you ever wonder how governments met and worked in colonial British America?  Williamsburg, Virginia, served as the capital of Virginia between 1699 and 1779. During its 80 years of service as capital, Williamsburg represented the center of British authority in Virginia. This meant the Royal Governor of the colony lived in Williamsburg. Indigenous, colonial, and other delegations came to Williamsburg to negotiate treaties and trade with Virginia. And, the colonial government met in Williamsburg's capitol building to pass laws, listen to court cases, and debate ideas. Katie Schinabeck, a historian of historical memory and the American Revolution and the Digital Projects Researcher at Colonial Williamsburg's Innovation Studios, takes us on a behind-the-scenes tour of Williamsburg's colonial capitol building to explore how the government of colonial Virginia worked and operated.

How much do you know about Araminta Ross? Her face is slated to start appearing on the twenty dollar bill by 2030. She's the first American woman in history to lead a military raid that emancipated over 700 people, and one of the most important abolitionists in history. You might know her by another name: Harriet Tubman. But when it comes to Harriet Tubman's legacy, an important part of her lived experience is often overlooked: her disability. With July being disability pride month, we wanted to celebrate Harriet Tubman as an icon and learn more about her identity from someone who finds her “often rightly celebrated, but seldom understood.” That someone is Tiya Miles, a National Book Award-winner and the Michael Garvey Professor of History at Harvard University. In her latest book, "Night Flyer: Harriet Tubman and the Faith Dreams of a Free People," Tiya writes about the somewhat unsung aspects of Harriet Tubman's life—her intertwined relationship with God and nature—which guided her activism and connected her to a collective of other women of her time. Through “Nightflyer,” Tiya proves that even when it comes to the most heralded historical figures, there's always more to say. And today, she joins us to tell us all about her new book, connect past and present, and offer lessons from Harriet's life that can help us build a future of collective liberation.

We have to understand that we are going through different journeys. God is doing something completely different in each of our lives and we have to be attentive to that. Let us not be so quick to judge—everything is not as simple as it may seem.  As we continue our journeys through life, we will constantly encounter our own and other people's struggles, flaws, weaknesses, and even sins.  In our Catholic life, there will be a lot of questions that will come our way and in this episode, we'll try to answer a few of them. Here is another one of our Hot Takes episodes that talks about some essential topics that most of us can relate to. In this episode we'll be going through the following topics:  1️⃣ A Perspective on Differences Between Men and Women 2️⃣ Free People, Free People 3️⃣ Stuff Matters The Poco a Poco podcast happens because of many generous donors, including recurring monthly donations of any amount.
