Podcasts about Gruss

Ein kleiner, kostenloser Gruss aus der Küche. Auch daheim ein mundgerechter Auftakt, der den Gaumen weckt, Neugier schürt und zeigt, wie kreativ Gastgeber sein können. Das Amuse-Bouche ist ein stimmungsvoller Einstieg ins gemeinsame Festtagsmenu. Wenn wir in den nächsten Tagen unsere Liebsten und Familie einladen, dann wollen wir uns von der allerbesten Seite zeigen. Vielleicht mit einem «Gruss aus der Küche», so wie wir es manchmal aus dem Restaurant und Hotel kennen. Woher kommt der «Gruss aus der Küche»? Und was für Ideen gibt es für unsere Hörerinnen, ihre Familie auch mal mit einem «Gruss aus der Festtagsküche» zu überraschen. Der «Treffpunkt» hat Antworten auf all diese Fragen.

Bishop Gruss: When we wait on God, we open ourselves up to a deeper intimacy with Him, even in the midst of uncertainty.You can view previous reflections here: https://saginaw.org/advent

Bishop Gruss: In this season of Advent, have you been waiting for Christmas or longing for Jesus? This week we will reflect upon Mary's posture of waiting. The length of an average pregnancy is forty weeks.  After Mary gave her fiat – her surrender – to bearing the Son of God, she still had to wait nine long months before she could finally cradle him in her arms.  One can just imagine Mary's excitement and anticipation during those months of pregnancy. But we know that she didn't passively sit around waiting for the days pass by.

In any given week, how many anonymous Catholics are in the pews at the Mass in which you attend? When was the last time you went up to someone you did not know and introduced yourself to that person?  As I mentioned last week, during this season of Advent, our reflections will look at four postures of our Blessed Mother. It is my hope that Mary will lead us into her heart, and guide us into a deeper experience of the Christmas mystery. This week we will look at Mary's posture of hospitality. It might even be seen as radical hospitality.

Der Vorhang und der Herbst - Wir stehen im Strom - strömendes Bächlein - ja der Strom - der Fluss strömt leiser - der Wasserfall tropft als ob er an Prostata leidet, doch das ist der Herbst. Vermehrt hört man wieder Laubbläser - leise sind die Alphornbläser. Aber eben es geht ans Eingemachte und an die Vorhänge welche nun schon vor dem viel zu frühen eindunkeln, gezogen werden.

Ein kleinergrosser Gruss aus der Schweizer Musik Küche! «punkt CH» bringt dir täglich das Neuste – heute unter anderem von «SRF 3 Best Talent» Ginny Loon. Die Winterthurerin wurde eben 30 Jahre alt und hat sich selbst ein Geburtstagsgeschenk gemacht: den Song «Happy Still». Wir schenken ihn euch!

copyright NDR Live, off-air, three-hour recording of the special annual Gruss an Bord program from German broadcaster NDR, Norddeutscher Rundfunk, on 24 December 2024 with an introductory "warm-up" segment beginning shortly after 18:00 UTC with Gruss an Bord itself starting at 19:00 UTC. The "warm-up segment" featured reports on seafaring, its economic relevance, and everyday life at sea. Gruss an Bord features music and greetings to and from mariners around the world. The Christmas greetings were recorded at an event in Hamburg. Unlike for the past several years, there was no event in Leer.Relatives and friends had the opportunity to wish their loved ones at sea a happy holiday and a happy new year. The Hamburg event was recorded on 8 December in the Duckdalben International Seamen's Club and was hosted by Birgit Langhammer and Ocke Bandixen. Music was provided by the Swedish-South African duo "Fjarill." The broadcast was primarily in German with some greetings in other languages.In addition to being carried on the NDR Info and NDR Info Spezial networks, the broadcast was transmitted around the world on shortwave using transmitters at Nauen, Germany; Moosbrunn, Austria; Issoudun, France; Tashkent, Uzbekistan; and Okeechobee, Florida, U.S.A.; and was organized by Media Broadcast.The frequencies (kHz) were: 6030 (via Issoudun) for the Northeast Atlantic, 6080 (via Tashkent) for Europe, 9635 (via Moosbrunn) for the Indian Ocean,11650 (via Issoudun) for the Atlantic and Indian Oceans, 13830 (via Nauen) for the Southern Atlantic, and15770 (via Okeechobee) for the Northwest AtlanticThe "warm-up" segment was not carried on the NDR Info Spezial network, which broadcast the children's program Mikado instead. And as the Moosbrunn transmitter took the feed from the NDR Info Spezial network, the "warm-up" segment didn't go out on this shortwave transmitter.The recording is of the transmission on the frequency of 11650 kHz for the full three hours.The program was received outdoors on a Belka-DX receiver in pseudo-synchronous (AM2) mode with a bandwidth of 50 Hz - 2.7 kHz with a Tecsun AN-03L 7-metre wire antenna in Hanwell (just outside Fredericton), New Brunswick, Canada. Reception was fairly good for the most part with a bit of noise at times.

«Der Herr ist auferstanden – Er ist wahrhaftig auferstanden.» So lautet ein klassisch christlicher Gruss, der zu Ostern und in der österlichen Zeit in vielen Kirchen gewechselt wird. Was aber meinen wir, wenn wir «wahrhaftig» sagen? Andi und Thorsten greifen noch einmal die viel verhandelte Frage auf, ob man die Auferstehung als eine historische Tatsache oder als ein leibhaftiges Geschehen bezeichnen muss oder kann. Sie stellen unterschiedliche Argumente und Beobachtungen vor und erkennen: Die Antwort auf diese Frage hat sehr viel damit zu tun, was uns überhaupt als wahr und wirklich einleuchtet. Dass die ersten Zeuginnen und Zeugen der Osterbotschaft sich von einer Erfahrung herausgefordert sahen, die gerade nicht einzuordnen ist in Vorstellungen, die man immer schon mitbringt, kommt viel zu kurz. Sodann wenden sie sich der Frage zu, was die Auferstehung heute bedeutet; und welche theologische Deutungen ihnen in ihrem Leben wirklich als hilfreich und erfreulich eingeleuchtet haben. Was berührt uns an dieser Botschaft, so, dass wir nicht nur darüber nachdenken, sondern Hoffnung und Geborgenheit schöpfen, etwas mitnehmen, was wir besingen und feiern wollen? Wie reden wir von einer Wirklichkeit, die wir nie wirklich in den Griff kriegen und die uns doch immer wieder berührt und Ergriffenheit schenkt? Und wie können wir von dieser Botschaft reden, dass sie sich als fröhliche und befreiende Hoffnung wirklich für alle Menschen erweist?

Donald Macleod colours in Bruch's life story and reveals the breadth of his output“Only true melody outlasts all changes and shifts of time” – so said this week's composer, Max Bruch, the creator of what may be the world's best-loved violin concerto.

This week, Donald Macleod colours in Bruch's life story and reveals the breadth of his output, including some of his lesser-heard music.Music Featured: Frühlingslied, Op 7 No 5 (arr. for violin and piano) Septet, Op Posth (3rd mvt, Scherzo) Klavierstücke, Op 12 (excerpt) Piano Trio, Op 5 Die Loreley Overture String Quartet No 2 in E major, Op 10 (1st mvt, Allegro maestoso) Swedish Dances (No 10, Frisch, nicht zu schnell) Musicaklang, Op 71 No 5 Symphony No 1 (5th mvt, Finale) Schön Ellen, Op 24 Violin Concerto No 1 in G minor 12 Scottish Folksongs (No 2, Johnie und Jenny) Songs, Op 49 No 4 – Serenade Piano Quintet in G minor (3rd & 4th mvts) Gruss an die Heilige Nacht (Greeting to the Holy Night) Kol Nidrei Scottish Fantasy for violin and orchestra (4th mvt, Allegro guerriero) 8 Pieces for Clarinet, viola and piano, Op 83 No 2 In der Nacht, Op 72 4 Pieces, Op 70 (No 1, Aria) Concerto for Two Pianos (4th mvt) Double Concerto for clarinet and viola Sommerlust im Walde, Op 71 No 1 String Quartet No 1 (3rd mvt) Das Lied von der Glocke (final movements) Odysseus Prelude In Memoriam, Op 65Presented by Donald Macleod Produced by Amelia Parker for BBC Audio Wales & WestFor full track listings, including artist and recording details, and to listen to the pieces featured in full (for 30 days after broadcast) head to the series page for Max Bruch (1839-1920) https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002br0dAnd you can delve into the A-Z of all the composers we've featured on Composer of the Week here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/3cjHdZlXwL7W41XGB77X3S0/composers-a-to-z

A number of years ago, I was on a retreat with the other bishops of the United States and the retreat director posed a question to us – and perhaps it is a good question for everyone today. “Where is my heart directed?”It is a question that needs to be asked daily.  Where is your heart directed?  Let me rephrase this. What relationship in your life is most on your mind and heart?

This homily was given by Bishop Gruss on Feb. 2, 2025 at the Cathedral of Mary of the Assumption.

Bishop Gruss was interviewed by Vanessa Denha Garmo on Ave Maria Radio's "Epiphany" program. During the interview, Bishop Gruss discussed the upcoming Come and See Dinner, the importance of family support in discernment, obstacles in the discernment process and more. 

The invasion of one kingdom by another kingdom is complete. As C.S. Lewis said, the rightful king has landed in disguise. 

Yes, the Gospel is not just the Good News. It is Great News! Spectacular news! God has rescued me. Now, what will be my response?

'If we have been captured by the Enemy, what has God done about it?' What He has done is extraordinary - unbelievable Good News! This video is part of Bishop Gruss' Advent retreat. The purpose of this retreat is to lead us into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ and to introduce to you what the Lord has shared with the Mission Leadership Team regarding our future – what he is asking of us. Watch additional videos from this retreat here: https://saginaw.org/advent-2024#video

So many people today live as if there is nothing – nothing beyond this world. So many people today live as if there is no hope. The world is dire, and there is nothing anybody can do about it.  Are you one of them?  Well, the Lord God has the answer! Again, the purpose of this retreat is to lead us into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ and to introduce to you what the Lord has shared with my Mission Leadership Team regarding our future – what he is asking of us.

On Tuesday, Sept. 10, Bishop Robert Gruss was interviewed on Ave Maria Radio's "Catholic Connection" program. During the interview, Bishop Gruss discussed the three-point plan guiding vocation efforts in the Diocese of Saginaw.

Bishop discussed the National Eucharistic Congress on Aug. 2 during the monthly First Friday gathering at the Cathedral of Mary of the Assumption. 

It was an extremely difficult letter to write.Bishop Robert Gruss recently shared a story about forgiveness and the letter he wrote to his father decades ago. He told the story after First Friday Mass at the Cathedral on April 5."It all surfaced on a five day retreat while in the seminary in Rome," said Bishop Gruss. "To make a long story short, I wrote a letter to my father sharing with him my feelings, my hurts, my anger, all the while reaffirming my love for him in spite of the disease of alcoholism."I told him that I forgave him and in turn, I asked him for forgiveness for any time I failed to love him resulting from my anger and resentment toward him."Writing this letter was very difficult.  I agonized over it, not only from the standpoint of writing it, but from the standpoint of putting it in the mail, always wondering what would be his reaction.  Because this came through prayer, I put my trust in God that I was doing the right thing...Read more

Part five of six mission values that send us out carrying the Gospel into the worldBeing docile to the Holy Spirit is the only way we can accomplish the works of God and the mission of Jesus. We are to use His grace and do His works for His glory, no matter what the world may think or say about us. This is the work of a true disciple of Jesus.Bishop Gruss: We must be authentically human (Week 4)Bishop Gruss: Do you have unshakeable confidence in the Lordship of Jesus? (Week 3)Bishop Gruss: God has set us apart for his work (Week 2)Bishop Gruss: Be ambitious for God and his kingdom! (Week 1)Bishop Gruss: We must become a Church with the same apostolic zeal as the disciples of the first century! (Ash Wednesday)

To be authentically human means we are not afraid to be vulnerable.  We are in touch with our humanity and are honest about who we are and what we stand for. We are vulnerable when we put ourselves out there beyond what is safe, familiar, and comfortable.  In doing so, we open ourselves up to the possibility of being wounded. Wasn't this the way of Jesus?  This is part four of six mission values that send us out carrying the Gospel into the world 

Do you have unshakeable confidence in the Lordship of Jesus?Do we have unshakeable confidence in the person who desires to bring healing, love and mercy to the world and who came to earth to rescue us from sin and death, the Evil One and his minions? Is this our experience?Perhaps some might begin with the question, “Who is Jesus?” Or, I might ask you the question, “Who is Jesus for you?” This is part three of six mission values that send us out carrying the Gospel into the world

God wants his world back. In light of this, let me share with you three  fundamental convictions – the world is crying, the Church is crying, and you are not alive by chance, you were born for this time.Let me ask you.  Do you believe that God has created you and put you on this earth for a specific purpose, with a specific mission for Him?  And, if so, are you and I living as if this is the case?You and I have been born for this time in history, as were the apostles and disciples of the early church born for their time in history. . .This is part two of six in which Bishop Gruss shares mission values that send us out carrying the Gospel into the world.

Bishop Gruss: Thanks for joining me on this journey through our “Mission Values.” As I mentioned in the last session, these mission values bring clarity to how we are to behave as Catholic individuals and as a Church sent on mission.In these six reflections, we will be looking at one per week. Obviously much can be shared about each of them, but with the limited time for these reflections, I can only touch the surface. But hopefully we will all receive something from the Lord to think and pray about in our own lives.Let's begin with the first mission value – Be ambitious for God and his kingdom.
