In a few short minutes, Father Brad guides you in prayer, shares a brief reflection grounding your day in the Church's rhythm of feast days and liturgy, and provides you with the encouragement necessary to go forward with peace and strength. Disclaimer: The ads shown before, during, or after this video have no affiliation with Morning Offering and are controlled by YouTubeLet us do as the saints urge and begin our days in prayer together so as a community of believers we may join the Psalmist in saying, “In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly.” (Psalm 5:3-4)________________

In this powerful message, we're reminded of Jesus' profound words: 'Let not your heart be troubled.' Drawing from John 14, we explore the deep significance of trusting God amidst life's storms. The story of Jesus calming the sea in Mark 4 beautifully illustrates this trust, challenging us to remain peaceful even when circumstances seem dire. We're encouraged to recognize the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit, our constant source of peace and strength. This lesson invites us to renew our minds, focusing on God's promises rather than our problems. By doing so, we can cultivate an unshakeable faith that withstands life's trials, becoming a powerful witness to those around us. Let's embrace the peace Christ offers and learn to be 'untroubled in our troubles,' transforming our thought life and deepening our relationship with God.

1 Corinthians 12:12 (NKJV) “For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ.”

In his farewell to the Ephesian elders, Paul urges believers to “pay careful attention” first to their own spiritual health and then to the well-being of those God has placed in their care. Guarding our souls and shepherding others isn't optional—it's essential for the sake of Christ and His Church, bought with His own blood.

Bearing good fruit and living out Jesus' values are what glorify God. The world longs for what Spirit-led lives offer. The fruit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control shows who we are and indicates if we're living as God intends. When led by the Spirit, doing right becomes instinctive, not just rule-based obedience. In this 9-part series, we will dive into each of the fruit of the Spirit and what living from those means for us as His Church and for those who desperately need Jesus.

Caleb Drahosh Preaching is central to the gathering of the church for worship. In His wisdom, God has given His Church a book, the Bible, and preachers to proclaim all that is contained within it. Preaching that is God honoring and right proclaims and interprets what God has said in His Word and explains what the response of the faithful church must be. God brings about the salvation of sinners and growth of saints in maturity through the preaching of His Word.

In this first installment of a three-part conversation, Ralph sits down with John Termini, founding pastor of The House Established in Waimanalo, Hawaii. John shares his unlikely journey from New York's commercial real estate world and Hillsong NYC to planting a thriving church in one of Oahu's most local communities. With heartfelt honesty and unexpected connections (including Ralph's early discipleship of John's in-laws), this episode explores the risk, obedience, and supernatural provision that marked the early days of The House. It's a powerful story of how God calls, equips, and builds His Church in the most surprising ways.

Send us a textWelcome:A simple question about head coverings leads Paul into one a tricky passage on worship, creation, and God's design for men and women. In this episode of The Bible Project Daily Podcast, we tackle a challenging and often misunderstood text and discover why this chapter isn't ultimately about fabric or fashion, but about reflecting the order and glory of God when we gather to worship.Episode Notes:Passage: 1 Corinthians 11:2–16Summary: The Corinthian church asked Paul a question that feels distant to many of us: should women wear head coverings in worship? Paul's answer goes deeper than cultural custom and points us to:The divine principle of headship rooted in the Trinity.How creation itself reflects God's design for men and women.Why submission is not about value, but about order and glory.What it means to honour God's created order in public worship.How even small outward signs can point to cosmic realities.Key Verses:“I want you to realise that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.” (1 Cor 11:3) “Because of the angels.” (1 Cor 11:10)Takeaway: This passage isn't really about hats—it's about the heart. Worship is meant to reflect God's design, the beauty of male and female interdependence, and the headship of Christ over His Church. Whether we wear a covering or not, the question is the same: Does my posture, inside and out, declare that Jesus is Lord?Support the showTo listen to my monthly church history podcast, subscribe at; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.com For an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

Read OnlineThen Peter took Jesus aside and began to rebuke him, “God forbid, Lord!  No such thing shall ever happen to you.” He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan!  You are an obstacle to me. You are thinking not as God does, but as human beings do.” Matthew 16:22–23What a shocking statement this must have been that was spoken by Jesus to Peter. “Get behind me, Satan!” Jesus said. In the paragraph before this, Peter professed that Jesus was “the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Jesus in turn told Peter that he was Petros and on this petra He would build His Church. Petros is the Greek word for a movable rock and petra was an immovable solid rock foundation. Thus, Peter was told that he would be the stone, set upon a solid foundation, by which Jesus would build His Church. Jesus even went on to promise Peter that he would receive the keys to the Kingdom and that whatever he bound on earth would be bound in Heaven. And then, one paragraph later, Jesus rebukes Peter for thinking “not as God” but as a human being.Jesus rebuked Peter because Peter could not accept Jesus' teaching about His coming passion and death. Jesus told Peter and the other disciples that He would soon suffer greatly, be rejected by the chief priest, the scribes and the elders, be killed and then rise on the third day. So Peter went from a profound proclamation of faith, to fear and a rejection of the divine plan of salvation. And for that reason, Jesus went from entrusting much authority to Peter to rebuking him for his weakness and fear.Fear is often a paralyzing passion. Saint Thomas Aquinas explains that the passion of fear comes from a perceived future evil. Sorrow is the normal reaction to a present suffering such as the death of a loved one. But when the perceived suffering, or apparent evil, is something that has not yet come, then we often react with fear. When that fear is caused by something exterior and out of our control, it tempts us to feel shock, a sense of being overwhelmed and anxiety. In the case of Peter, the thought of Jesus suffering greatly, and being killed, was more than he was able to accept. So Peter says, “God forbid, Lord! No such thing shall ever happen to you.”Jesus' rebuke of Peter was an act of true love. It was a way of shaking him free from the paralysis of fear. Jesus wanted Peter to think clearly and to face this future suffering with courage, acceptance, hope and faith. Courage provides strength. Acceptance cures anxiety. Hope produces joy. And faith is the remedy for all fear. These and other similar virtues were necessary if Peter and the other disciples were going to be able to endure the suffering and passion of Jesus. They needed to know that this perceived evil was going to be transformed by the Father in Heaven and used for the greatest good the world had ever known. They needed to know that Jesus “must go to Jerusalem and suffer greatly…” It was the Father's will. And because it was the Father's will, the greatest good would come from the greatest evil because of God's almighty power. Reflect, today, upon that which causes you the most fear and anxiety in your life. When you look to the future, what is it that paralyzes you or at least tempts you to fear and worry? The truth is that any evil or suffering that you foresee has the potential to bring forth the greatest good in your life. Your natural human mind cannot discern this. We must strive to think as God, not as humans, as Jesus says. Try to look at anything that causes you anxiety through the eyes of God alone. Trust that, in faith, all can be used by God for good. Do not doubt but believe and God will begin to bestow upon you the many virtues you need to move forward with peace, courage and confidence. My suffering Lord, You faced the evil You endured with the utmost courage and love. You never gave in to fear but pressed on, fulfilling the Father's will. Give me the grace I need to share in Your strength so as to overcome all that tempts me to fear. I love You, my Lord. May I rely upon You for all things.

God is preparing His Church to carry a greater measure of glory, and it won't look like anything we've seen before. This is not the time to shrink back. It's time to lean in, get rooted in the Word, and align with heaven's strategy for this hour.If Pentecost was just the seed, what's coming is the full harvest, unprecedented, uncontainable, and unstoppable. No eye has seen, no ear has heard what God has in store for those who love Him.In this episode, we press into what it means to be a people ready for the weight of glory. This is your invitation to grow, stretch, and be transformed from the inside out.Don't just watch, participate. Let God prepare you for what's ahead.

1 Corinthians 15:9-13 What kind of father fails ever to discipline his son? What kind of mother lets her children grow wild without ever pruning them? The world calls this love, but the Word of God says, “He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes” (Prov. 13:24).   In this fourteenth and last teaching part in the Church series, we turn our attention to the topic of Church discipline.  When the Church gives the green light to professing believers living in willful sin, it fails to convey the correct message from God. God is not okay with His people sinning, and His Church need to communicate the same for the purity of the Body and the restoration of the sinner.

It's not a building, a show, or a social club—it's a people. A chosen people. A royal priesthood. A holy nation. We are called out of darkness and into marvelous light—not just to gather, but to proclaim His goodness and live out His mission together. In a world that's desperate to belong, the Church must rise up—not in isolation, but in unity. Because God is still building His Church.

Discipleship was never meant to be a solo journey. In The Life of a Disciple: The Church, we'll take a fresh look at what it means to truly follow Jesus—not just in belief, but in belonging.  Jesus didn't just call individuals; He established His Church as a gathering of people committed to Him and one another. The Church, as a literal assembly, was birthed to shape us, challenge us, and send us. Through it, we are admonished in Christ, strengthened in our pursuit of Him, and mobilized to reflect His love to the world.  In this sermon, Pastor Andrew defines the purpose of the Church: to exalt Christ, equip believers, and reach the lost. Whether you're new to faith or deep in your walk with God, this message will help you see how being a disciple means being deeply connected to the Church Jesus built.

August 3rd, 2025 | REIMAGINE | Ephesians 3:14-21In this powerful message, Pastor Todd Kaunitz returns to kick off a two-week series titled REIMAGINE — a call for believers to dream again and consider what God can do in us when we fully surrender to His work. Preaching from Ephesians 3:14–21, Pastor Todd unpacks the Apostle Paul's bold prayer for the church in Ephesus, a prayer that still echoes for every believer today.This episode challenges listeners to move beyond spiritual complacency and reimagine the Christian life as one marked by inner transformation, not just outward behavior. Pastor Todd highlights four petitions from Paul's prayer:To be strengthened in the inner being by the Holy SpiritFor Christ to dwell fully in our hearts through faithTo grasp the immeasurable love of ChristTo be filled with the fullness of GodWith heartfelt illustrations and biblical clarity, Pastor Todd reminds us that many Christians live with untapped spiritual potential — like nutrients in still water that need to be stirred up. God wants to awaken His Church, but it begins with prayer and surrender.As Paul closes his prayer in verses 20–21 with a declaration of God's infinite ability, Pastor Todd echoes that call: God can do far more than we ask or imagine — but we must ask, seek, and believe.“God's ability to act exceeds our ability to ask.”Do you know JESUS?: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nblongview.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need PRAYER?: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nblongview.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT through giving: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠⁠

Join Richard and Krista as they explore Elder Gary E. Stevenson's April 2025 general conference talk, “And We Talk of Christ.” Elder Stevenson teaches the importance of keeping Jesus Christ at the center of our lives. He emphasizes that Christ stands at the heart of His Church and should be the focus of our personal discipleship. Using the example of Easter, he invites us to celebrate the Savior's Atonement with deeper spiritual purpose, making our worship “higher and holier” and strengthening our connection to Him. Elder Stevenson concludes with a heartfelt testimony that through the Savior's atoning sacrifice, we can be forgiven, find hope and peace, and return to God's presence as we repent and follow Him.

The sin of prejudice in all of us keeps us from being the unified Body of Christ that God calls His Church to be. We need to let go of our differences and love each other equally so that the world looks at us and sees that there is no way we could be unified like this unless God is at work. When we love each other and worship together, it is as if we are practicing for the way it will be in Heaven.

Not just for ourselves and one another, but also because of the powerful witness it is to the world. Part 14 Ephesians Series "Unity in the Body of Christ” (Ephesians 4:1-6) Pastor Bryan D.

Tonight's talk is titled, Pentecost: Repentance Required If you have your bibles, lets jump into our key text, turn to Acts 2:38

Matthew 5:14-16 (NIV) YOU ARE THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Mark Saunders, who has an incredible "reversion" story to tell. Raised in a devout Catholic household Mark explains why he initially left the Catholic Church – despite working as an altar server and even discerning the priesthood at one point! – and how his success as a musician led to a life of sin, depravity, and eventually found him seeking out Jesus once again – and finding him in an anti-Catholic, Evangelical church. From there, Mark's story gets even more fascinating as he begins to work as a pastor, serving his Church and even publicly discrediting his Catholic upbringing until, much to his surprise, he began to be drawn back, once again, to the Church of his childhood. Mark's story is incredible and Mark is a wonderful guest: open, honest, and absolutely on fire for Christ and His Church.To connect with Mark you can check out his YouTube channel, his TikTok account, and connect with him via e-mail at markjpsaunders@yahoo.co.uk.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

CULTIVATING SAINTS, SAGES, AND STATESMEN THROUGH THE GREAT TRADITION OF CHRISTENDOMIn this episode, we share a story from the "Decameron," a 14th century collection of stories told in Italy during the Black Death. This one is about a Medieval Jew who became a Medieval Catholic, and how corruption in the Church actually helped convince him that he should become Catholic.This humorous story illustrates a vital truth: sin within the Church can never revoke Christ's promises to protect and guide Her into all truth until His return.VISIT OUR WEBSITEhttps://eternalchristendom.com/BECOME A PATRON OF THE GREAT TRADITIONIf just 2,000 Catholics support our work for $10/month, we can keep producing free content for all the souls around the world that need to hear the good news of Christ and His Church.

If you've ever wondered why the Church requires a Sunday obligation to attend Mass—even when you're doing other good things like feeding the poor or being kind—this conversation is for you. On The Patrick Madrid Show, Michelle from Kentucky calls in with a question: “If someone skips Mass but still does works of mercy, are they still in mortal sin? That just seems... harsh.” Patrick responds with some Holy Spirit–fueled clarity and compassion. According to Church teaching (and backed up by Scripture), deliberately missing Sunday Mass without a serious reason (illness, caring for someone sick, dangerous travel, etc.) is a grave sin. Why? Because it’s saying "no" to a relationship. You're choosing to ignore Jesus' invitation to the most important family gathering of the week: the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. But What If You're a Really Nice Person? Michelle asks, “What about people who are super kind and charitable but don’t go to Mass?” Patrick said: Being nice is good—but it’s not salvific. If goodness alone could save us, Jesus wouldn’t have needed to die on the Cross. Works of mercy done in a state of grace (in union with Christ) are eternally meritorious. Apart from grace, they’re nice, not saving. Jesus Was Pretty Clear “If you love me, you will keep my commandments.” (John 14:15)“He who hears you hears me; he who rejects you rejects me.” (Luke 10:16)“No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6) Jesus established His Church with real authority. When the Church says, “Go to Mass every Sunday,” you're being obedient to Christ’s own command. The Family Dinner Analogy (So Good) Patrick compares Sunday Mass to a family dinner: Imagine your parents say, “Everyone needs to be at the table at 6pm.” If one kid says, “Eh, I’ll just eat in my room,” they're disconnecting from the family. That’s what skipping Mass does. It breaks the spiritual family bond. God's Not Looking to Smite You Patrick explains that God isn’t standing there like, “Ha! Gotcha!” In fact, He’s constantly pouring out grace, constantly inviting us back—especially through Confession and the Eucharist. Patrick reminds you that Jesus said some hard truths, but He says them out of love. He wants you home for dinner, forever. Real Talk: If you’ve been skipping Mass... come home. Go to Confession.Get back in the pew.And the Father is always watching for the prodigal child to return.

“I am married unto you.” — Jeremiah 3:14 Christ Jesus is joined unto His people in marriage-union. In love He espoused His Church as a chaste virgin, long before she fell under the yoke of bondage. Full of burning affection He toiled, like Jacob for Rachel, until the whole of her purchase-money had been paid, […]

And why does Frank recommend so many books on his podcast: Isn't the Bible all we need?
