Fr. Mike continues to interpret the symbols within Revelation. He compares story of Our Lady of Guadalupe to the woman in Revelation. Fr. Mike provides context to the letter to the Hebrews, a letter that makes the case for Jesus, explaining who he is and the beauty of what he did for us. Today's readings are Revelation 12-14, Hebrews 1-4, and Proverbs 31:16-18. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

Asking God for our “daily bread” is a petition for him to fill our physical and spiritual hunger. Fr. Mike breaks down this simple yet profound petition that reminds us of our reliance on God for all our needs. In this part of the Lord's prayer, we turn to God with childlike hearts, trusting that he will nourish us with all the appropriate material goods and, above all, with the Eucharist. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2828-2837. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

That viral claim about "The 12 Days of Christmas" being a secret Catholic catechism turns out to be the perfect example of how our brains can trick us into seeing faith where none was planted. From a $28,000 grilled cheese sandwich bearing the Virgin Mary's face to ghost hunters hearing spirit voices in radio static, we're wired to find meaningful patterns everywhere — even when those patterns don't exist. What does this mean for believers trying to discern genuine revelation from the stories we tell ourselves?SERMON TRANSCRIPT (Includes Sources): https://weirddarkness.com/COTU-12DaysOfChristmasWeird Darkness® and Church Of The Undead™ are trademarked.

After experiencing God’s blessings, the people of Israel still returned to their old ways. Sound familiar? If you’ve found yourself drifting spiritually and falling into the same patterns—a fresh start is close by. Spiritual momentum is building! Help us continue to meet this unique moment by supporting our evangelistic efforts in 2026—give before the year ends! Notes: Focus verse - Nehemiah 10 #1 Starting strong is good, finishing strong is better. Samson started well but did not finish that way. Marriage is like our relationship with God. The moment you begin to neglect and take your marriage for granted, trouble follows.The same is true of our Christian life. The bible says, “Work out your own salvation.” #2 Stay focused. When we take our eyes off the Lord, we will get discouraged. Nehemiah 4:14 Israel did not remember the Lord. This was not just about the physical state of the walls.This was about the spiritual state of their lives. #3 Israel promised to carefully follow all the commands of scripture. Read Nehemiah 10:28–29 Jesus is the unique and only miracle working Son of God who died and rose again. #4 Israel chose to obey the word of God. The surrender to God’s word happened from top down.Nehemiah 10:28 It’s one thing to believe the word of God, it’s another thing to surrender to it. #5 Israel separated themselves from ungodly influences.Nehemiah 10:28–30 To live a godly life, you need to separate yourself from some things and join yourself to others. The three most important decisions you will make in life are:What am I going to do with Jesus Christ?What am I going to do with my life?Who am I going to marry? Israel was pulled down by ungodly people. 2 Corinthians 6:14 Separation does not mean isolation. #6 Israel was invested in God’s kingdom.Nehemiah 10:32 If we follow God’s principles about giving, we can expect Him to meet our needs.2 Corinthians 9:8 Nehemiah 13:8 Little compromises lead to bigger problems. Jesus finished what he started. --- Learn more about Greg Laurie and Harvest Ministries at harvest.org.

The Case for Christ. Lee Strobel on the Movie. ACU Sunday Series.  This is an ACU encore presentation. 

What if the miracle you're searching for this Christmas isn't found in magic, movies, or moments—but in a Person who came on a rescue mission for you? Christmas Eve reminds us of the stories we love—families reunited, wrongs made right, purpose restored. But the real miracle of Christmas isn't nostalgia or sentimentality. It's Jesus: fully God, fully man, the Messiah who came to reconcile us to the Father. In this powerful message, Pastor Joby walks through John 1 and the breathtaking reality of the Word becoming flesh—the God who spoke the universe into existence becoming small enough for us to know. Jesus came lowly and gentle, not with magic but with authority, compassion, and purpose. He thirsted, yet walked on water. He bled, yet healed with a touch. He died, yet rose again—so that we could have peace with God. If you've ever wondered whether God is both big enough to rule the cosmos and personal enough to love you, this message is for you. What would change in your life if you went all-in with Jesus this year?

What if the most “overlooked” man in the Christmas story is actually one of the most important—and shows us what biblical manhood really looks like? Simeon isn't usually the first name we think of in the Christmas story, but his life gives us one of the clearest pictures of what a real man looks like—righteous, devout, Spirit-filled, hope-driven, Christ-centered, and a blessing to others. As we close out our year of focusing on biblical manhood, we're invited to look deeper: What do we see in Simeon that points us to what a real man truly is? In this week's message, Pastor Adam walks through Luke 2 and shows how Simeon's life wasn't defined by his own strength or status, but by the only One who is the perfect Real Man—Jesus. Because Jesus is the Savior, Salvation Himself, the Revealer of hearts, the Resurrected One, the Strong and Wise God-Man, we can become the men—and women—God calls us to be.

Pastor Mac provides a topical teaching of Romans CH 13:11-14 by looking into the importance of the time that we spend in our lives and what it means to be alive and awake in the Lord.  We will discuss the doctrine of imminence as well as look into some details regarding being in the light vs the darkness.  This teaching will also review some study tools that we can obtain in order to adopt well-grounded study habits to aid us walking in the Spirit, all in the hopes to re-energize our souls to fully awake in order to put on the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.   Social MediaProphecy Website: http://JDFarag.orgMobile & TV Apps: https://subsplash.com/calvarychapelkaneohe/appChurch Website: http://www.calvarychapelkaneohe.comX: https://x.com/JDFaragFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/JDFaragInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/JDFarag

Read OnlineWhen the days were completed for their purification according to the law of Moses, the parents of Jesus took him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord, just as it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that opens the womb shall be consecrated to the Lord, and to offer the sacrifice of a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons, in accordance with the dictate in the law of the Lord. Luke 2:22–24Forty days after a firstborn male was born, the law of Moses required that the mother participate in a purification ritual and that the parents were to “redeem” the child by offering a ritual sacrifice. As faithful Jews, Mary and Joseph took these obligations seriously. When they entered the Temple, they were met by a holy man named Simeon, who was among the faithful Jews “awaiting the consolation of Israel.”From its founding, the Kingdom of Israel had endured many troubled times. The last time the Kingdom of Israel had been united was under the reign of King David and his son Solomon in the tenth century B.C. After Solomon's death, the kingdom split into the Northern Kingdom of Israel and the Southern Kingdom of Judah. The Northern Kingdom was captured by the Assyrians in 722 B.C., and the Southern Kingdom was conquered by the Babylonians in 586 B.C., leading to the destruction of the First Temple and the exile of many Jews to Babylon for about seventy years. In the centuries that followed, Greek culture was imposed upon the region after the conquest of Alexander the Great, and the Romans finally captured Judah in 63 BC, maintaining control beyond the birth of Christ.This history of oppression and division created various responses among the Jewish people. Many prophets had foretold the coming of the Messiah, the one who would bring consolation to Israel. Some Jews expected the Messiah to be a political leader who would reunite and restore the Kingdom. Others were indifferent to the prophecies. But a faithful remnant, like Simeon, awaited the Messiah who would bring about a profound spiritual renewal.Simeon was not a Pharisee, Sadducee, or scribe, but an ordinary devout Jew filled with the Holy Spirit. It was the Holy Spirit Who revealed to him that he would not see death before he had seen the Messiah. On the day Mary and Joseph brought Jesus to the Temple, Simeon, inspired by the Holy Spirit, came to the Temple and recognized the Christ Child. He took Jesus in his arms and rejoiced, saying, “Lord, now let your servant go in peace; your word has been fulfilled…”We should all strive to be like Simeon. Like the people of Israel and Judah, we are living in a world where God's Kingdom is often divided or overshadowed by immorality, wars, divisions, and a lack of faith. We might be tempted to address these challenges in various ways, but the best way is to become part of the faithful remnant who, like Simeon, trust in God's promises and eagerly anticipate His transforming action in our lives and in the world. Reflect today on the state of the world. In some places, the Kingdom of God is vibrant and alive; in others, it seems distant or absent. No matter where you find yourself, turn your gaze to the all-powerful Messiah, Who is capable of renewing His Kingdom on Earth as we await its fullness at the end of time. Devote yourself to His mission, and allow the Holy Spirit to inspire you to be an active participant in bringing about the reign of God. My Lord and Messiah, as I see the challenges and divisions in the world around me, help me to trust in Your promises. May I, like Simeon, be filled with faith and hope as I await Your Kingdom. Inspire me to be an instrument of Your grace, helping to build Your Kingdom here on Earth. Jesus, I trust in You.Image: Janmad, CC BY 3.0, via Wikimedia CommonsSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

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! In today's episode, Hunter guides us through the 363rd day of our journey through the Scriptures, focusing on Revelation chapters 5 through 9. Together, we witness the dramatic scene of the Lamb—Jesus—opening the sealed scroll, a powerful symbol of hope, justice, and redemption in the midst of a broken world. Hunter reflects on the meaning and significance of these passages, reminding us that, even in times of confusion and despair, God's love and victory can transform our weeping into worship. The episode also includes heartfelt prayers for peace, understanding, and unity, as well as an encouraging reminder that each listener is beloved by God. Whether you're new to the Daily Radio Bible or have been with us all year, you'll find hope, comfort, and inspiration in today's time together in the Word and in prayer. TODAY'S DEVOTION: If this scroll isn't opened, then how are we going to make sense of this story? The story of human history demands that this scroll be opened. The story of life demands that justice and righteousness prevail. Some sense must be drawn from all the senseless evil in this world. John falls into despair at ref​lecting on the possibility that there will be no judgment, no true reconciling of all things—a restoration when God is all and in all. He wonders whether perhaps it's all meaningless. He wonders whether there will be a response from God in the end. John cries out at the thought. He cries out for someone to make sense of the wreckage. And in this final moment, when it appears that all is lost, an elder insists that John stop weeping. He insists that there is One who is worthy and able. It is the One sitting on the throne. He can open the scroll because he has stepped into the darkness, the despair, the loss, into death and into the grave. He is the Lamb of God who has taken away the sin of the world. He has offered himself on the cross, and in that offering, he defeats death by death in order that he might rescue those who are captive to sin, death, and the grave. He's come to rescue the lost—Adam and all of us—and draw us into his saving life. In his body, he accomplished this victory. You might be like John today, weeping because you think there's no way to make sense of what's happened in your life. The elder, John, and I all want to remind you—look to the Lamb. He's worthy. Look at him. See what he has done. He has won a victory for you, for us, for the world that will transform our weeping into absolute worship and adoration. Let's ask the Spirit to help us see the Lamb who opens the scroll. That's a prayer that I have for my own soul. That's a prayer that I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's a prayer I have for you. 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  

On this feast of the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, we recognize that our families become blessed when we welcome Christ into our hearts and homes. (Lectionary #17) December 27, 2025 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com  

Incarnation is salvation. The moment the Word became flesh and joined the human race, salvation for humanity was guaranteed. Everything connected with this would have to play out in due course—a human life, death upon a cross, resurrection on the third day—but salvation for the human race was guaranteed the moment Mary said, “Be it unto me according to your word.” With the birth of Jesus, humanity would no longer be founded in Adam but founded in Christ. Incarnation is salvation.

It's surprisingly easy to let life's big moments slip by and forget how much has actually happened over the last twelve months! We often move so fast that we lose sight of how God has been looking out for us. This week, we looked at how pausing to remember isn't just a sentimental exercise—it's Biblical! And it helps us gain peace and perspective, regardless of what's happening around us. Think of your phone's photo library as a modern version of a memory jar. When you scroll back through your pictures from 2025, you start to see the full story of where you've been and what God has done, even in the messy parts. Before the new year officially kicks off, take a few minutes to look through your photos, send a quick text to someone you've missed, and be honest with God about what you're grateful for and where you still need some help. It's a simple way to head into next year with a much clearer head and a lot more gratitude. Your 2025 year-end giving advances our Unshakeable vision as we partner with God to build an Unshakeable future. As you put God first in your giving, He continues to use your generosity to move His Kingdom forward. Thank you for continuing this journey with us.

As we close out the year, we're focusing on something we all need: a clean heart. In this message, Pastor Aaron shares how God forgives us completely, how we're called to forgive others, and why learning to forgive ourselves is part of true freedom. This is an invitation to let go of what's been weighing you down and step into the new year with a heart made whole. Thank you for enjoying this life changing message from Radiant Church.

This episode focuses on how believers can establish their hearts and live as integrity ambassadors in a broken world. Through his testimony and practical insights, Sathiya explains why overcoming sexual sin is not about surface-level solutions, but a heart transformation that aligns convictions with lifestyle. He challenges listeners to pursue true freedom through the Holy Spirit, not just behavior modification, and emphasizes the importance of building self-awareness, healing the heart, and embracing a new identity in Christ.   Know more about Sathiya's work: Join Deep Clean Inner Circle - The Brotherhood You Neeed (+ get coached by Sathiya) For Less Than $2/day Submit Your Questions (Anonymously) To Be Answered On The Podcast Get A Free Copy of The Last Relapse, Your Blueprint For Recovery Watch Sathiya on Youtube For More Content Like This   Chapters: (00:00) Be Patient: Establishing the Heart (James 5) (01:00) Testimony: From Addiction to Freedom (03:00) Salvation vs. Sanctification (05:30) A Wicked World & a Spotless Bride (08:20) Blessed but Broken: Integrity vs. Success (10:45) Why Deep Clean Exists (12:45) The Sexual Sin Crisis in the Church (15:10) Integrity Ambassadors Explained (16:45) What Integrity Really Means (18:15) Sexual Sin: A Sin Against the Body (20:40) Jesus on Lust: Heart Before Behavior (23:10) Sexual Morality vs. Immorality (26:45) Early Exposure & Long-Term Damage (28:30) Why Common Solutions Don't Work (29:00) Pillar 1: Building Self-Awareness (37:15) Pillar 2: Healing & Transforming the Heart (45:00) Pillar 3: Shifting Identity in Christ (49:55) Living Patiently as Jesus Returns (55:15) Commitment, Confession & Costly Obedience (01:12:05) Becoming Integrity Ambassadors

One of the misconceptions of the enemy is that he is big, loud, and easy to see coming our way. But the truth is, that he is slow, sneaky, and even strategic in how he tries to get us off course. In this episode, Rodney Holmstrom, Global Field Director of Celebrate Recovery, will talk about some things to be aware of and the lies the enemy can feed us as he prowls around like a lion seeking to devour us. Listen in and find some practical ways to combat the enemies sabotage attempts so that we can keep moving and growing forward in our recovery with our forever family, and Jesus Christ as our higher power.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20251228dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion I will tell of the kindnesses of the LORD, the deeds for which he is to be praised, according to all the LORD has done for us—yes, the many good things he has done for Israel, according to his compassion and many kindnesses. Isaiah 63:7 Mercy and Compassion A highly respected running coach was once asked what he would do if he wanted to make his own son an Olympic runner. He responded, “I would get him a coach that believed he could be an Olympian.” After all his years of training runners, this man had learned that having a coach who believed in his runner was a key component to helping that athlete reach his true potential. Isaiah describes the Lord looking at his people and saying, “Surely they are my people, sons who will not be false to me.” How could the Lord say this when Israel had turned its back on him again and again? It wasn’t that God thought he could make his people better simply by believing in them. No, God calls Israel his people because in his love and mercy, he made them his people. “He became their Savior.” A coach might help an athlete achieve his greatest potential by believing in him, but God has done much more for us. Simply believing in us would not have been enough, because left to ourselves, our only potential was to go our own way and stray further away from him. So, God in his love and mercy redeemed us. By sending his only Son, he bought us back from our destiny of being sinners forever separated from him. This truth causes our Christmas joy to overflow every day of the year. In his loving kindness, the Lord has made us his people, who are given the righteousness and obedience of his Son. What’s our response to such mercy and compassion? We can join with Isaiah in saying, “I will tell of the kindnesses of the LORD, the deeds for which he is to be praised, according to all the LORD has done for us.” Prayer: Merciful and compassionate God, I thank you for being my Savior. You have made me your child through the redemption that comes through Jesus Christ. Help me to speak of your kindness, of all that you have done for me. Amen.

During our Christmas Eve gathering this year we looked at the story of Jesus in John 1.  Because Jesus came we have hope in the midst of a troubled world and we get to carry that hope to the world.  We reflect on the fact that Christmas is a time to have hope even if the world seems dark.   We pray that as your family gathers you would remember all that Jesus did for us on the Cross, and the miracle that we serve a God who came to us.   Merry Christmas Saints' Hill

What if the space between Christmas and New Year is not something to rush past, but an invitation to slow down, breathe, and listen? In this online only service, Church on the Rock pauses the noise and the pressure to remind us why Christmas is still merry even when life feels complicated. The story of Jesus was never polished or easy. It was filled with obedience, disruption, loss, fear, and hope colliding in real human lives. And yet, right in the middle of all that tension, Jesus entered the world as the greatest gift we could ever receive. This message connects Christmas to Easter and reminds us that our hope is not rooted in circumstances, but in a Savior who conquered sin, death, and the grave. As we stand on the edge of a new year, this message calls us into a posture of surrender and trust, praying like David, God teach me to do Your will and lead me forward. It challenges us to think differently about 2026 by leaning into spiritual rhythms, community, serving, generosity, and investing in the next generation. Whether you are tired, hopeful, uncertain, or ready for a fresh start, this service invites you to start the year with your yes on the table and your roots planted deep in God, believing that when our trust is in Him, we can flourish in every season.   Did you accept Christ today?

"E, interrogado pelos fariseus sobre quando havia de vir o Reino de Deus, respondeu-lhes, e disse: O Reino de Deus não vem com aparência exterior. Nem dirão: Ei-lo aqui, ou: Ei-lo ali; porque eis que o Reino de Deus está dentro de vós." Lucas 17:20-21"De sorte que haja em vós o mesmo sentimento que houve também em Cristo Jesus, que, sendo em Forma de Deus, não teve por usurpação ser igual a Deus, Mas fez a Si mesmo de nenhuma reputação, tomando a Forma de Servo, fazendo-Se semelhante aos homens; E, achado na forma de homem, humilhou-Se a Si mesmo, sendo obediente até à morte, e morte de cruz. Por isso, também Deus O exaltou soberanamente, e Lhe deu um Nome que é sobre todo o nome; Para que ao Nome de Jesus se dobre todo o joelho dos que estão nos Céus, e na Terra, e debaixo da Terra, E toda a língua confesse que Jesus Cristo é o Senhor, para glória de Deus Pai." Filipenses 2:5-11

On the first day of the week,Mary Magdalene ran and went to Simon Peterand to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and told them,"They have taken the Lord from the tomb,and we do not know where they put him."So Peter and the other disciple went out and came to the tomb.They both ran, but the other disciple ran faster than Peterand arrived at the tomb first;he bent down and saw the burial cloths there, but did not go in.When Simon Peter arrived after him,he went into the tomb and saw the burial cloths there,and the cloth that had covered his head,not with the burial cloths but rolled up in a separate place.Then the other disciple also went in,the one who had arrived at the tomb first,and he saw and believed.
