Greetings, Eternal Church!It's my joyful opportunity to serve the gathering at 1650 O'Henry Lane this Sunday by bringing the Word of God to the people of God, so that we, by the Spirit of God, might look more like the Son of God for the Glory of God!This week, we will continue the journey through the book of Acts by considering Acts 3. With that, I'd like to ask you to prepare your hearts by reading through the chapter, and then consider the following questions before Sunday morning:What are my expectations for this Sunday's worship service?What am I looking for? What do I desperately need?Who am I hoping to see?There is much in this careful historical account of Luke that we could feast on, but in our survey this week, we will see this overarching purpose:We are without the power and piety to walk, but in Christ we find both, and are restored by His presence to a priesthood of praise in the already as we await the not yet!I couldn't be more excited to unfold the truths of Acts 3 with each of you, and then see how our Lord uses them to transform us by one degree of His beauty to the next that we might fill the earth all the way to the ends with His glory!

Great Expectations by Charles Dickens follows Pip, an orphan who rises from humble beginnings after receiving a mysterious fortune, believing it will transform him into a gentleman worthy of love. As he navigates London society, Pip becomes entangled with the eccentric Miss Havisham and her cold ward Estella, while slowly uncovering the true source of his wealth. Francine Prose is the author of twenty-two works of fiction, including The Vixen, Mister Monkey, the New York Times bestseller Lovers at the Chameleon Club, Paris 1932, A Changed Man, and Blue Angel, a finalist for the National Book Award. Her nonfiction includes the modern classic Reading Like a Writer and the acclaimed memoir 1974: A Personal History. A former president of PEN America and a member of both the American Academy of Arts and Letters and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, she is widely regarded as one of our most insightful and versatile contemporary writers. Her latest book, Five Weeks in the Country explores a fascinating moment which Francine describes as this: “In 1857, Hans Christian Andersen visited Charles Dickens, his wife and nine children in the British countryside for five comically and heartbreakingly awkward weeks. Telling their story seemed like the perfect way to talk about writing, love, marriage, children and two brilliant authors: a public figure in crisis and a houseguest, more at home in his fairy tales than in life, who overstays his welcome.”Valentine's Claret Punch is our drink pairing, and is what Dickens and Anderson were drinking the night they met and led to the misunderstanding that led Anderson to believe he should visit the Dickens family for an extended stay!In this EpisodeGreat Expectations - John Mills FilmGreat Expectations - 1998 Version

featured Wiki of the Day

fWotD Episode 3253: Dirty Dick Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Wednesday, 1 April 2026, is Dirty Dick.Nathaniel Bentley (c. 1735–1809), commonly known as Dirty Dick, was an English merchant who was known for his filthy and unwashed appearance. He came from a moneyed background and received a good education. He spoke several languages and dressed in a dandified manner, and was given the nickname "the beau of Leadenhall Street". He met Louis XVI of France and attended his coronation in June 1775; he was a patron of the London pleasure gardens at Ranelagh in Chelsea and Vauxhall in Kennington.When in his late thirties, Bentley became parsimonious and stopped washing and cleaning himself and his shop. He picked up the nickname Dirty Dick and his shop became known as "the dirty warehouse"; both he and his shop became well known and were lampooned in the press. People visited the outlet to see the squalor, and noted that Bentley was very polite and had impeccable manners. Rumours circulated that the cause of the dirtiness was that Bentley had not washed since his fiancée had died on their wedding eve and that he had locked the dining room, complete with the wedding feast, and left it to moulder.Bentley moved out of his shop in 1804 and the contents were sold off. One enterprising publican purchased some of the contents, including mummified rats and cats, and used them to decorate his pub, which he renamed Dirty Dicks; as at 2025 the pub is still in operation under that name. Bentley died of a fever in 1809 in Haddington, East Lothian in Scotland. Bentley's story was known by the writer Charles Dickens, and Bentley's locked dining room may have inspired the locked room of Miss Havisham in the 1861 novel Great Expectations.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:27 UTC on Wednesday, 1 April 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Dirty Dick on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Stephen.

Part two of the "Seed Life" series. Pastor Richard answers the question, "Should we GIVE EXPECTING to RECEIVE anything from God?" He shows that the parable of the SOWER/FARMER is a picture of God Himself SOWING the SEEDS of HIS WORD. Just like a FARMER, we should SOW SEED and EXPECT HARVEST and GOD to MOVE.

Videomate: Men was a VHS tape released in 1987 featuring 60 single men pitching themselves as dates to women on the other side of the TV screen: “The love of your life could be on your TV tonight!” the box reads. In retrospect, Videomate: Men is a bizarre and hilarious time capsule, but at the time it was one of many manifestations of what was known as video dating. To find out how anyone thought this was a good idea, Decoder Ring examines the weird and forgotten world of video dating in the 1970s, '80s, and '90s to find out why video dating once seemed like the future—and if that future is still yet to come. On this episode, originally released in 2019, we talk to the creators of the Found Footage Fest, VHS collectors who unleashed Videomate on the internet; ask the creators of video dating services like Videomate's Steve Dworman and Great Expectations' Jeffrey Ullman what they were thinking; and talk to participants who used these services but not necessarily in the way that was intended. We'll also discuss the future of video dating with Coffee Meets Bagel co-founder Dawoon Kang and former host of The Longest Shortest Time Andrea Silenzi. This episode was written by Willa Paskin and was produced and edited by Benjamin Frisch. We had research assistance from Cleo Levin. Decoder Ring is produced by Katie Shepherd, Max Freedman, and Evan Chung, our supervising producer. Merritt Jacob is Senior Technical Director.
