The bride is longingly looking for her bridegroom in the night and suddenly finds him to her great delight, in a scene very reminiscent of Mary Magdalene searching for Jesus after His resurrection. The wedding procession begins and includes imagery reminiscent of the LORD's protection of His people as they journeyed through the wilderness to the Promised Land. As the bridegroom looks upon his bride, he praises her beauty, recognizing his wife as God's gift to him in marriage. Rev. Andrew Belt, pastor at Christ Lutheran Church in Marshfield, WI, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Song of Solomon 3:1-4:7. To learn more about Christ Lutheran, visit christmarshfield.org. “God's Gift of Marriage” is a mini-series on Sharper Iron that studies the Song of Solomon and other key texts from the Bible concerning marriage. Although the world is terribly confused concerning what marriage is, God's Word reveals how good a gift marriage truly is and points us to the relationship between Christ, the Bridegroom, and His Church, the Bride. Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org
Although the bride sees herself as one flower among many, Solomon views his beloved as the only one for him. He protects her from the dangers that their love faces as he sets a feast for her. The union that exists between the bride and the bridegroom is one in which they belong to each other and share all that they have. Through their relationship, we see a picture of the way Christ makes His Church lovely and bestows upon her all that is His. Rev. Matt Ulmer, pastor at Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church--Friedheim, just outside Decatur, IN, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Song of Solomon 2:1-17.

The Song of Solomon was likely written by King Solomon early in his reign. Despite the way his wives multiplied later in life, Solomon's song speaks of the joy of marriage between one man and one woman. As the bride and the bridegroom speak to one another, they await with joy their coming marriage and praise the excellent qualities of each other. Throughout the Song, the love between Solomon and his bride provides a picture of the love that exists between Christ and His Church. Rev. David Boisclair, pastor at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church in Overland, MO, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Song of Solomon 1:1-17.

Tuesday October 7, 2025XVII Week After PentecostIn today's episode, we see rebellion, perseverance, and resurrection hope collide in the story of God's unshakable kingdom.
In considering God's gift of marriage, it's helpful to start at the beginning. Moses records God's institution of marriage in Genesis 2. Because it was not good for the man to be alone, God created the woman to be the helper he needed. Adam's joy at the gift of Eve is the same joy God gives to husbands and wives today as they take delight in each other, help each other, and receive the gift of children through their union. God's institution of marriage shows this holy estate to be anything but a burden— it is a precious gift. Rev. Nate Hill, pastor at St. Michael's Lutheran Church in Winchester, TX, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Genesis 2:18-25.

The post Jesus and His Church – 10/5/25 appeared first on North Hills Church.
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.
The Apostle Paul reminds us in Ephesians that a Christian's battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the spiritual forces of darkness. Join us as Chip exposes powerful lies that have misled believers for centuries and are undermining the institution of marriage.The command: Walk differentlyWalking worthy of your CALLING -Ephesians 4:1, 17Walking in LOVE, like Christ -Ephesians 5:2Walking as children of LIGHT -Ephesians 5:8Walking not as unwise, but as WISE -Ephesians 5:15How?By letting your relationship with God—with Jesus and by the power of the Holy Spirit—be the one central, most important thing that focuses your mind around the truth of how to live. -Ephesians 5:15-20By applying the instructions for the Spirit-filled life to the family structure. -Ephesians 5:21-6:4The ultimate context:The armor of God is detailed immediately after family instructions to frame the family as a primary spiritual battlefield for fighting lies. -Ephesians 6:10-18Fighting for your familyIdentify lies and understand where they come from and what they do.Understand that lies make it impossible for children to grow up in a safe, stable, supportive environment where they feel valued, encouraged, and supported.Recognize that the most dangerous lies are the ones that you believe to the point where you think it's good.The family as a witnessFew things will be more important to show the world the love of Christ than marriages that reflect Jesus and His Church.Our mission: To show the world that there is hope by identifying lies in our families and culture, and building Spirit-powered homes that glorify God.Broadcast ResourceDownload Free MP3Message NotesAdditional Resource MentionsMarriage Truth Cards Offer"Uninvited Guests" ResourcesConnect888-333-6003WebsiteChip Ingram AppInstagramFacebookTwitterPartner With UsDonate Online888-333-6003

Today, the world is flooded with information but lacks wisdom. Confusion and deception are everywhere. The line between right and wrong has blurred, truth is challenged, and many believers struggle to discern the voice of God amid the noise.In "Wisdom – Discerning Good & Evil", Duane Sheriff teaches that wisdom is more than knowledge—it's the ability to discern between good and evil, a skill desperately needed in our complex world. The story of Solomon asking God for wisdom reminds us how to approach our spiritual journey. Just as Solomon didn't ask for riches or long life but for understanding to lead God's people, we too must prioritize godly wisdom above worldly pursuits.As God restores discernment in His Church, believers are called to rise with clarity, conviction, and compassion. Pursue godly wisdom like hidden treasure—it's time to awaken, walk in truth, and shine as lights pushing back the darkness in this generation.

The Devil Has Overplayed His Hand • Todd Coconato LIVE from Living Proof Crusade Michigan Website: www.PastorTodd.org To give: www.ToddCoconato.com/give Everywhere you look, the enemy seems to be working overtime. Chaos in nations, attacks on families, deception in the culture. But here's the truth: the devil has overplayed his hand. When he pushes too far, it always backfires, and God raises up His people with greater power. We are stepping into the greatest moment for the Church—not a time of retreat, but a time of advancing the Kingdom with fire, authority, and glory. The darker it gets, the brighter the light shines. The shakings of this world are not the end of the Church—they are the setup for revival! 10 Reasons Why This Is the Church's Greatest Hour 1. God Promised to Pour Out His Spirit in the Last Days Acts 2:17 (NKJV): “And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, that I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh.” 2. The Harvest Is Ripe John 4:35 (NKJV): “Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest!” 3. Where Sin Abounds, Grace Abounds Much More Romans 5:20 (NKJV): “But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more.” The increase of wickedness is not the end of grace—it's the setup for an overflow. God's grace and power will be magnified in the very place the devil tried to take over. 4. The Church Is Built to Prevail Matthew 16:18 (NKJV): “…I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.” 5. God Always Turns Evil for Good Genesis 50:20 (NKJV): “But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive.” 6. Miracles Confirm the Message Mark 16:20 (NKJV): “And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs.” 7. The Glory of the Latter House Will Be Greater Haggai 2:9 (NKJV): “The glory of this latter temple shall be greater than the former, says the Lord of hosts.” The greatest days of the Church are not behind us—they are ahead of us. The last-day Church will walk in a greater glory than the early Church. 8. Revival Comes in Times of Darkness Isaiah 60:1–2 (NKJV): “Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you. For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, And deep darkness the people; But the Lord will arise over you, And His glory will be seen upon you.” 9. The Enemy's Time Is Short Revelation 12:12 (NKJV): “Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time.” 10. Jesus Is Building a Victorious Bride Ephesians 5:27 (NKJV): “…that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.” Yes, the devil has tried to bring fear, chaos, and deception. Yes, he's crossed lines and overplayed his hand. But every attempt only accelerates the plan of God. This is the hour of harvest, miracles, glory, and revival. Church, we are not shrinking back—we are rising up. We are stepping into the greatest moment in Church history. The devil has overplayed his hand, and the victory belongs to Jesus Christ and His Church.

Drawing on St. Luke's account of Christ calling His disciples to become fishers of men, this homily explores why marriages and parishes often falter when built on human strength alone. Fr. Anthony reminds us that brokenness, poor models, and cultural confusion cannot be overcome by willpower or good intentions, but only through Christ and His Church. Just as the apostles' empty nets were filled at the Lord's command, so too our families and parishes flourish when rooted in His blessing and obedience. --- Homily: Why is it so hard to build a good marriage (and parish)? Saint Luke 5:1-11; Fishers of Men So it was, as the multitude pressed about Him to hear the word of God, that He stood by the Lake of Gennesaret, and saw two boats standing by the lake; but the fishermen had gone from them and were washing their nets. Then He got into one of the boats, which was Simon's, and asked him to put out a little from the land. And He sat down and taught the multitudes from the boat. When He had stopped speaking, He said to Simon, “Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” But Simon answered and said to Him, “Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net.” And when they had done this, they caught a great number of fish, and their net was breaking. So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink. When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, “Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord!” For he and all who were with him were astonished at the catch of fish which they had taken; and so also were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid. From now on you will catch men.” So when they had brought their boats to land, they forsook all and followed Him (St. Luke 5:1-11). Introduction: How Christ Builds the Church This is a beautiful story from the ministry of Jesus Christ. It comes on the heels of his Baptism, his temptation by the devil in the wilderness, and the beginning of his preaching ministry in the synagogues of Galilee. In this Gospel, Christ has started building something very special; something that would never fall; something that would bring healing to broken humanity; something through which He would change the world. He began building the Church. And He did it with simple fishermen on the side of a lake. Continuation: We are Building, too We are participating in this work as well. We want to build something that will never fail; something that will bring healing to broken people; something that will transform a troubled place. We are building a parish. Today's Gospel provides a wonderful lesson for us on this very thing. In his homily on today's Gospel, St. Nikolai Velimirovich writes; “Except the Lord build the house, all who labor labor in vain.” (Psalm 126:1) If the builders build in God's name, they will build a palace, even their hands are weak and their material poor. If, though, the builders build in their own name, in opposition to God, the work of their hands will be brought down as was the Tower of Babel. There is no power that can bring God's work to ruin. Pagan palaces and cities fall into ruin, but God's huts remain standing. That which God's finger upholds stands more firmly than that which [the mythical titan] Atlas supports on his back… May the almighty Lord preserve us from the thought that we can achieve any good without His help and His blessing… May today's Gospel serve as a warning that such vain thoughts must never be formulated our souls. It speaks of how all men's efforts are in vain if God does not help them. While Christ's apostle's were fishing as men, they caught nothing; but when Christ commanded them to cast their nets once more into the sea, they caught such a great haul of fish that their nets tore. Why would anyone think they can build something worthwhile without Christ? I don't know. It is futile. We know better. But we do it all the time. Understanding the Curse of Sin: the example of marriage Let's look at the example of marriage. It can be so hard to get it right, and there are just so many ways to get it wrong. Why is it so hard? It isn't because people aren't trying. In fact, they are trying all kinds of things… but they aren't working very well. At best, some couples might end up with a marriage that lasts, but marriage was not just meant to endure. It's not supposed to be like a boxing match that makes it to the final round; with the two so tired they can hardly lift a glove and they just lean on one another gasping and looking forward to the bell (or, as is as likely to happen in marriages, the two just hang out in their separate corners doing their own thing until the final bell sounds). A good marriage does more than last, it brings joy to its members and its fruit brings happiness that endures from generation to generation. But why is this so rare? It should come as no surprise. Look how many people come from broken families. It isn't their fault, but this really puts them behind the eight ball. They come from broken families and a broken world, so they have bad examples and have internalized all the wrong instincts. Brokenness has been imprinted in their minds and hearts; this cannot help but shape their actions, no matter how good and noble their intentions are. Even if they try to rise above and do things right, what examples are they going to follow? Television? Movies? TikTok? Their friends? Their hearts? None of these is a reliable guide – all of them are fallen. If statistics are correct – and there is no reason to doubt them – our young men are learning more about how to relate to women from pornography than they are from anything good and real. And the expectations and self-respect of our young women are being shaped by this same blighted culture. Is there really any wonder that we are so bad at marriage? That even those young couples who try to get it right end up building a perverted parody of the kind of blessed union of flesh and spirit that we celebrate in the Mystery of Crowning? That we have far more “towers of Babel” than temples of true love? Reiterating the Problem… and the solution To repeat the Psalm; “Except the Lord build the house, all who labor labor in vain.” (126:1). We cannot overcome our own brokenness by trying harder or following the examples and guidance of people who are broken, too (St. Matthew 15:14; … if the blind lead the blind both will fall into a pit). An alcoholic cannot live a healthy life by trying harder; he has to admit his problem, heal and transform his heart and habits. And he has to let God be the foundation of this process. This is why twelve-step programs are so successful: they transform the hearts and habits of the repentant, with God as the foundation of the process. How many addicts do you know that continue ruining their lives because they think they can work everything out on their own? But alcoholics and philanderers do not just hurt themselves. We know from history and our own observations that the children of alcoholics and broken homes are cursed by both nature and nurture. Again, it isn't fair, but it is true. If we want the next generations to succeed then we have to be honest about both the cause and the cure of what ails them and us. The cause is our brokenness, and the cure is Christ Jesus. The cure is His Church. The cure is the Way of Holy Orthodoxy. All else is vanity. They are Towers of Babel. They are sand castles at a low tide. Back to Today's Gospel: becoming fishers of men The curse of sin is the very thing that Christ came to remove. To put it in very practical terms, Christ came to save your marriages, to heal your addictions, to restore your sanity, and to replace your sorrow, pain, and frustration with joy and eternal blessedness. That is to say, He came to save you from the very real, very specific, and very damning problems in your life. And not just yours, but everyone's. A world that was created good groans in agony, and our Lord loves it too much to allow that to continue. And so He became a man, He taught us, He died for us, He was resurrected and ascended into Glory, and, more to today's point, He established the Church to be the Ark of our salvation. What a beautiful image a boat is for the Church. Think about it: we are drowning in a sea of sin and trying to tread water amidst a storm of temptation. We cannot survive this on our own, and it does not help to band together – eventually, even the strongest swimmer must succumb to weakness; moreover, the weak are infamous for dragging the stronger down. It is a terrible situation to be drowning in this stormy sea. Our breaths are numbered, and we are sure to die in agony. It is only a matter of time. But into this bleak scene comes salvation: the apostles cast out their nets and pull us in to the safety of the boat. We can finally breath without struggling. It is calm in the boat. It is here that our real healing begins… then we are given our own nets. Conclusion: we cannot catch men if we don't try; we cannot catch men if we don't learn how We are in the boat. Here at Christ the Saviour, we have the fullness of the faith (we are like a fractal of the Universal Church) so it is fair to say that we are the boat. But remember that bit earlier about how nature and nurture conspire against our marriages? You know me well enough by now to know that I wasn't just talking about marriage. Marriage is an image of the Church: the union of flesh with one another and the union of that one flesh with God (Ephesians 5:32). Why should we think that we are naturally any better at living as the Church than we are with marriage? The same forces work against us: we suffer from both nature and nurture. Just as good intentions are not enough for the children of broken homes, they are not enough for us as we try to build this parish. Without serious help, we will just end up building the equivalent of a miserable and failed marriage, another Tower of Babel, a perverse monument to our own fallenness. We cannot do it on our own. We need help. We need Christ. Without Him, we are like the Apostles in today's lesson before our Lord came; “toiling all night and catching nothing” (St. Luke 5:5). It had been a hard night for them and they had given up on catching anything; but then Christ came and told them to go back out, and they caught more than they could carry. So many that their boats almost broke. This parish has been through a lot. There was a time when it was down to a handful of people. Like Simon in today's lesson, we had good hearts and the best of intentions, but we were tired; and we had pretty much given up on catching fish. But the Lord has told us to get back out there and get it done. And so that is what we are doing. Of course, we are smart in the ways of the world, and we are always tempted to rely on our own strength and our own hearts. But our hearts are broken and our strength will fail us. “Except the Lord build the house, all who labor labor in vain.” (126:1). But for those who put their trust in the Lord and in His way – there is no limit to the good that they can do. This is where we are. We have given our lives and the future of this parish to the Lord Jesus Christ. Like Simon, we haven't always seen the point of what the Lord commands, but also like Simon, we follow Him. And we know the result of doing the Lord's will: the catch was so great that their nets were so full that they were all but bursting, and the ship could barely stay afloat. Does this sound familiar? The Lord has bless your commitment and your faith; and our growth has been so great that we wonder if our walls can hold the number of men, women, and children who have been pulled in to the safety of the Church. So great that we, like Simon calling for the second boat, are helping to plant missions and look for new properties to provide enough room. Because there is no reason to expect this growth to stop. After all, there are a lot of people drowning in the waters around us. We cannot allow them to perish – it is God's will that all be saved. It is a tough calling. But we do not labor in vain: because we are building according to the Lord's command. We have been transformed fishers of men. To God be all glory and may He bless us as we do this work.

Because of the surpassing grace of Jesus Christ, because He alone is worthy of all glory, because Christ is building His Church from every tribe, tongue, and nation on earth, and because He has torn down the wall of hostility between God and man - we, His people, are called to “make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.”
In Part 2, we're diving into God's heart—what He truly desires His Church to be.Not just a building, but a people shaped by His presence, walking in His purpose.Let's discover the Church through His eyes.
Apostolic Stewardship and Divine Appointment — D&C 106–108 | Apostle D.

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.
This sermon concludes the Acts series by examining the mysterious deaths of Ananias and Sapphira (Acts 5:1-11). The preacher explores three suspects—the world (Peter), sin, or Satan—but concludes the true killer is secondary. The main takeaway is the resulting "great fear" that seized the church, leading to explosive growth. This fear is interpreted as the Fear of God: a profound realization that we, too, are broken and deserve judgment, thus desperately needing a Saviour. The sermon challenges the congregation, asserting that revival begins with God's purification and judgment of His Church's sin and hypocrisy.
Waiting isn't easy. Can I get an amen? Ha!Whether in line at Costco or in life's hardest seasons, whether in waiting seasons with an end date or open-ended ones, how do you handle waiting?Waiting for a wedding date.Waiting for a prodigal kid to return.Waiting for a spouse to heal from hurt.In Acts 1:12–26, we see the early church waiting on Jesus' promises and we see how Jesus continues to lead His Church through His Word and how He replaces Judas with Matthias.We also learn from the godly example of how the early church how they:➡️ Obeyed Jesus' commands.➡️ Get into His Word.➡️ Trust their King.We will be talking about all of these things this weekend: seeing how Jesus continues to lead His people and how His people set a godly pattern of waiting, getting into God's Word, and trusting Him to lead them.
In this message, Pastor Dale debunks the argument of those who attempt to deconstruct the Church and excuse themselves from being part of a local assembly by saying that, because of mankind's involvement, the modern church is a flawed institution. From the beginning, God built His Church on the foundation of Jesus AND on the revelation He imparted through His Spirit to the Apostles and Prophets - the latter being imperfect human beings. Yes, men (and women) are flawed, and many have veered off course. However, God's intention has always been to use men to build and maintain His Church. He will always have a remnant of uncompromising people willing to align with His will and be used to move Christ's Body forward into greater levels of maturity, spiritual revelation, and power by making Jesus the Chief Cornerstone of their local assemblies and building upward from the foundation previously laid by the Apostles, Prophets, and spiritual fathers.

Midweek Service: Throughout history, countless individuals and groups have tried to predict the day and hour of Christ's return, from early church fathers to modern-day preachers, yet every attempt has failed, showing the futility of setting dates. Scripture makes it clear that while Jesus will indeed return, both to rapture His Church and later to appear in glory after the great tribulation, the exact timing remains hidden—“like a thief in the night.” The rapture will come suddenly, when life on earth seems relatively peaceful, as believers are caught up with Christ and the restraint on the Antichrist is removed, ushering in a time of unparalleled tribulation. The second coming, distinct from the rapture, will be a visible event seen by all, occurring after this tribulation when Christ returns in power and glory to judge and to reign. Both events are certain but unknowable in timing, emphasizing not prediction but readiness: believers are called to stay alert, live in the light, and hold fast to the hope of salvation rather than be swayed by false prophecies or claims of secret knowledge.

In this episode, we dive deep into spiritual warfare, exorcism, generational curses, and deliverance with a special returning guest. Together, we unpack his brand-new book Spiritual Warfare Q&A published by TAN Books — a Catholic reference guide that answers hundreds of real-world questions about demons, angels, exorcism, haunted houses, cursed objects, and the priesthood's authority in spiritual combat.
9/23/25 - Dr. Michael Dauphinais, co-director of the Aquinas Center for Theological Renewal and Chair of the Theology Department at Ave Maria University, shares the story of his journey of faith and vocation. With advanced degrees from Duke University and the University of Notre Dame, Dr. Dauphinais has dedicated his life to teaching and defending the Catholic faith. He is the Fr. Matthew Lamb Professor of Catholic Theology, co-author of several acclaimed works including Knowing the Love of Christ: An Introduction to the Theology of Thomas Aquinas and Holy People, Holy Land: A Theological Introduction to the Bible, and most recently co-author of Wisdom of the Word: Biblical Answers to Ten Questions about Catholicism (Word on Fire Press, 2021). In this testimony, he reflects not only on his personal conversion and encounters with God's grace but also on how Catholic theology has deepened his love for Christ and His Church. As host of The Catholic Theology Show, Dr. Dauphinais continues to bring theology to life, and in this video he offers encouragement, insight, and a witness that will inspire Catholics to pursue holiness with confidence and joy.
In this powerful message, we're reminded of the spiritual warfare that surrounds us as believers. The central theme revolves around Romans 12:19, which teaches us that vengeance belongs to God alone. We're called to navigate this world as ambassadors of Christ, responding to injustice and persecution with love and prayer rather than retaliation. The speaker draws parallels between God's ordained authorities (like law enforcement) and our role as spiritual warriors, emphasizing that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers of darkness. This perspective challenges us to renew our minds and approach conflicts with a Kingdom mindset, trusting in God's justice rather than taking matters into our own hands. As we reflect on this message, we're encouraged to examine our hearts, pray for those in authority, and stand firm in our faith, knowing that our redemption draws near.

Apocalypse Now: An Eye-Opening Study of the Book of EphesiansWhat if the greatest revelation wasn't about the end of the world, but the unveiling of a new one? Apocalypse Now is a deep and eye-opening journey through the book of Ephesians, where the Apostle Paul—writing from prison—pulls back the curtain on God's grand design for His people.Set against the backdrop of ancient Ephesus, a city of power, culture, and spiritual darkness, this series explores how Paul's letter reveals Jesus as Lord over every empire, idol, and authority. Known as the “Queen of the Epistles,” Ephesians lifts our eyes to the breathtaking view of Christ and His Church—our identity, our unity, our calling, and our hope.Each episode uncovers the “apocalypse”—the great unveiling of Jesus' life, death, resurrection, and the Spirit's gifts—and asks how this revelation reshapes the way we live right now. From household relationships to spiritual warfare, from ancient temples to modern challenges, Apocalypse Now helps us see with fresh eyes what it means to belong to God's family and live as people of another Kingdom.If you're ready for a faith that feels alive, courageous, and countercultural—this is your invitation. We don't just need an apocalypse someday. We need one now.For more information or to get connected, visit us at www.rcnb.org
On The Patrick Madrid Show, a caller named Jared voices a concern shared by many Catholics today: could the Church ever change her teaching on homosexuality? With so many voices online casting doubt, Jared – himself a convert – wonders if he had put his trust in something that might shift under pressure. Patrick Madrid responds with clarity and conviction: the Church’s teaching on sexual morality has been consistent for 2,000 years and will never change. From the words of Jesus to the writings of St. Paul and the unbroken witness of the Church Fathers, the truth about chastity, purity of heart, and God’s plan for human love remains constant. While individuals may push for compromise, their opinions cannot overturn what Christ Himself established. Patrick reminds you that human nature hasn’t changed. The temptations of lust, pride, and rebellion existed 1,000 years ago just as they do today. Yet the Church stands firm, built on the rock of Christ’s promise that the “gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Even in times of scandal, upheaval, or confusion, the truth remains unshaken. If you're feeling anxiety or fear, Patrick encourages you to focus less on what dissenting voices say and more on living faithfully. We can't control how others act, but we can only be responsible for our own decisions. He urges you to stay close to the sacraments, pray the Rosary, and trust Jesus’ promise that His Church will endure. As he put it, “If you stick with Jesus, you stay in the truth, you persist... everything is going to be okay. Jesus said so, and I believe it.” Patrick recommends Interior Freedom by Fr. Jacques Philippe, a book that helps you find peace and trust in God, even when storms rage around you. His message is clear: truth does not bend to culture, and the Catholic Church will never change her teaching on homosexuality – because it is the teaching of Christ Himself.

There are written accounts of an old Roman practice…when a child would be born into a family, it would be placed at the feet of it's father. If the father stooped down and picked up that child, it would be legitimized and brought into the family. But sometimes, the father wouldn't pick up the child. Maybe the child looked weak or frail, maybe the child wasn't the preferred gender, or maybe it was simply an inconvenient time for the family, and so instead the child would be picked up and taken outside the city and discarded. This was a completely common and acceptable practice at the time. It was called infant exposure. But we also have historical records that tell us how early followers of Jesus would go outside of the city on regular basis at night and they would walk up and down the streets listening for the cries of children and when they found them, they would rescue them and bring them back into their own homes and raise them up as their own beloved sons and daughters. Again, God places the lonely in families. Psalm 68:6 (NLT) And He's been doing this through His Church. This is our history. We have the opportunity to pick up the same torch.

FAITH IS… with Pastor Rick Stevens – In a week of tragedy and remembrance, God tells us and shows how He redeems. It's simply indescribable how God can take the most horrible experiences of life and somehow manage to turn evil into good. Put simply, God redeems. Using His Word and His Church, God draws near and shows us the way forward through the pain and turmoil of life. Watch for it. God redeems!
