From Silence to Glory: The Mystery of Easter This Homily reflects on the liturgy of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, . . . . . . emphasizing how Scripture readings during the Easter vigil narrate the entire history of God's love for humanity. It traces the journey from creation and fall, through the Exodus, prophetic calls to return to God, and finally to the New Testament, culminating in Christ's death and resurrection. A Theological Insight A significant theological insight is given about Holy Saturday—often overlooked—as the most mysterious moment, where God, through Jesus, enters death and silence. Jesus, though sinless, experiences death, breaking its power. His resurrection becomes the ultimate hope and promises for all baptized believers, affirming God's presence even in suffering and death. The Homily encourages joy, hope, and gratitude in the Easter celebration. Listen to this Meditation Media. Listen to: From Silence to Glory: The Mystery of Easter ---------------------------------- For those that visit the QoAH's website for this post, you'll see a restored statue. Regina Caeli, the Queen of Heaven, and the Lady of Easter Joy Allow me to introduce you to a cherished figure in our community. This statue has been with us for ten years, originally hand-carved in Peru. She is traditionally adorned for various feast days and holds a special place in our celebrations. However, over time, the paint had deteriorated to such an extent that even the slightest contact would cause it to flake away. A few weeks ago, we made the decision to send her for professional restoration, with the hope that she would return in time for Easter—and we are pleased to say she did. She now stands before us with a beautifully restored appearance, complete with a new halo and freshly painted garments. We now honor her as Regina Caeli, the Queen of Heaven, and the Lady of Easter Joy.

Luke 24:1-12At daybreak on the first day of the weekthe women who had come from Galilee with Jesustook the spices they had preparedand went to the tomb.They found the stone rolled away from the tomb;but when they entered,they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.While they were puzzling over this, behold,two men in dazzling garments appeared to them.They were terrified and bowed their faces to the ground.They said to them,"Why do you seek the living one among the dead?He is not here, but he has been raised.Remember what he said to you while he was still in Galilee,that the Son of Man must be handed over to sinnersand be crucified, and rise on the third day."And they remembered his words.Then they returned from the tomband announced all these things to the elevenand to all the others.The women were Mary Magdalene, Joanna, and Mary the mother of James;the others who accompanied them also told this to the apostles,but their story seemed like nonsenseand they did not believe them.But Peter got up and ran to the tomb,bent down, and saw the burial cloths alone;then he went home amazed at what had happened.

Holy Saturday Eve Service 2025 | Rev. John Arnold by Christ Church Jerusalem

The Paulist Deacon Affiliates recorded this episode of Deacons Pod on Holy Saturday to discuss their consolations and desolations in Lent, 2025, and about how to continue nurturing hope in the Easter season. The deacons also chat about the past two prior Deacons Pod episodes in August, 2022, and October, 2023, featuring Judge Ester Salas, a U.S. District Court judge in New Jersey who has publicly forgiven the man who murdered her son and shot her husband in 2020. Judge Salas was recently interviewed on television about new menacing actions directed toward judges and their families.

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast (04/21/25), Hank resumes his overview of the days of Holy Week, arriving at Holy Saturday, which was observed by the Eastern Church this past weekend. Holy Saturday marks one of the most enigmatic of all mysteries—the mystery of Christ's descent into Hades. Being “put to death in the body,” says Peter, he was “made alive by the spirit through whom also he went and preached to the spirits in prison who disobeyed long ago when God waited patiently in the days of Noah while the ark was being built. In it, only a few people, eight in all, were saved through water, and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you also.” Peter here reminds us of two great and glorious truths. First, we are saved through water, and second, the descent of Christ into Hades inaugurates resplendent triumph. A triumph by which Christ “tramples down death by death.”Hank also answers the following questions:When a person is baptized, do they become a new creation right away, or is it an ongoing process? Debra - Stony Plain, AB (15:14)What provision does the Bible make for young children or some adults who don't have the mental capacity to accept Christ? Robert - Tallahassee, FL (20:35)I have a cross pendant that has discolored over time. I bought a replacement, but what should I do with the old one? Paul - San Diego, CA (23:03)

Fr. Mike Gentry

We are called to let the light of Christ shine not only on us and within us, but from us, so that others can see that they have the grace, the gem of grace within them. These luminous minerals that we have in rocks are like the luminous grace of God within us. We are called to shine the light of Christ on others. It is not enough that we just celebrate here together with all of us who believe, we have to become the light in the world. (Read more…)Alleluia!

Homily for Holy Saturday, April 19, 2025

Listen to Fr. Steve's homily from 4/19/25.Thanks for listening! Please leave us a rating and/or review, and share on social media or with a friend! You can email ashley@rootedinthereallyreal.com with any questions or suggestions. God bless.

EASTER The Death of Death 4.20.25 GOOD FRIDAY is the day of death. HOLY SATURDAY is the day of waiting. EASTER SUNDAY is the day of resurrection. 1 Corinthians 15:54-55 “Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?” 1 Peter 3:18-19 Christ suffered once for sins…being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit, in which he went and proclaimed to the spirits in prison. If the cross has reminded us that God does not bypass suffering, His resurrection reminds us that God does not leave us there. The resurrection is not just a past event – it's a present and future reality and invitation. 1. We Live Without Fear John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. 2. We Suffer With Hope & Purpose 3. We Live Resurrected Lives Now Romans 6:4 “…just as Christ was raised from the dead… we too may live a new life.”

On this episode, Paul White talks about Holy Saturday. 

Holy Saturday is the quiet, in-between space—the day after Jesus’s crucifixion and the day before His resurrection. A day of silence, grief, and waiting. Scripture tells us little about what happened on this day. We know Jesus’s body lay in the tomb, His followers were scattered and mourning, and hope must have felt lost. They didn’t yet know what was coming. This Holy Saturday meditation invites you to step into that moment. To imagine what it was like for Jesus’s disciples—those who walked with Him, who believed He was the Messiah, and who now sat in deep uncertainty. Through this meditation, you’ll be guided to:• Reflect on the weight of waiting and the silence of Holy Saturday.• Bring before God the places where you, too, are waiting.• Rest in the truth of God’s promises, even when His timing is unclear. We hold vigil today, remembering that God is always at work—even when we cannot see it. Take a moment to pause, reflect, and prepare your heart for the hope that is coming.

The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. Isaiah 55:8-9, NIV “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,”declares the Lord.“As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.

What do you do when God feels silent? On Holy Saturday, we sit in the in-between — after the cross but before the resurrection. It's a day of silence, grief, and waiting. But silence doesn't mean absence.In today's Passion Week devotional, Mike Stone shares a powerful message about trusting God in the waiting. When the miracle hasn't come yet, and hope seems buried, Silent Saturday reminds us that God is still at work — even in the tomb. If you're feeling stuck between prayer and breakthrough, this message is for you.

This is a re-release of Episode 42 of Season 3, which is a prayerful reflection on Holy Saturday, also known as Black Saturday because it falls in the liminal space between death and new life.

A 21-minute audio guided meditation, with text from John 19:38-42 Though it is wildly tempting to rush to Easter morning, I invite you to tarry a while with me, to stay here in the holy, devastating moments as the body of Jesus is removed from the cross. As Michael Rosen so wisely said: we can't go […] The post When God is Absent: A Meditation for Holy Saturday appeared first on Contemplative at Home.

Want to reach out to us? Want to leave a comment or review? Want to give us a suggestion or berate Anthony? Send us a text by clicking this link!The sacred stillness of Holy Saturday holds a unique place in our spiritual journey - that profound pause between the Crucifixion and Resurrection, where we are invited to contemplate the mystery of Christ's rest in the tomb. Through ancient liturgical texts and thoughtful meditation, we explore this day not as empty waiting, but as fertile ground where the seed of Resurrection quietly germinates."Today I am plunged in anguish, but tomorrow I will break my bonds." This powerful antiphon sets the tone for our reflection on what appears as defeat but secretly harbors victory. We join Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus at the hasty burial of Jesus before walking through the profound symbolism of the Easter Vigil ceremonies—the blessing of new fire, the lighting of the Paschal candle representing Christ risen, and the gradual illumination of darkness as this light spreads throughout the congregation.The beautiful paradox of Holy Saturday emerges as we contemplate both loss and anticipation. "The sleep of death will be of short duration, followed by a glorious triumph," reminds us that beneath apparent defeat, God's redemptive work continues unseen. We offer practical spiritual resolutions for the day: spending time in recollection with Mary, seeking confession, praying for catechumens awaiting baptism, and remembering souls in purgatory. If you're journeying with us through Lent toward Easter glory, join our community in prayer for those entering the Church tonight, and prepare your heart for the magnificent celebration of Resurrection that awaits us all tomorrow.Support the showSponsored by Recusant Cellars, an unapologetically Catholic and pro-life winery from Washington state.

Friends of the Rosary,Holy Saturday (from Sabbatum Sanctum, its official liturgical name) is the day of the Lord's rest; it has been called the “Second Sabbath” since the creation of the world.It's a day of great silence on earth, instituted to enter reflectively into the divine rest.After the great battle against sin and death, Christ Jesus is resting in peace. Upon Him we see the scars of intense suffering, with mortal wounds on His Body that remain visible.Jesus' enemies are still furious, attempting to obliterate the memory of the Lord by lies and slander.In the silence of the day, Christ Jesus didn't choose divine vengeance but the ultimate demonstration of divine love.On Holy Saturday, while we meditate on the Passion and crucifixion of Christ, we wait with Our Lady of Sorrows — the Church is represented in Mary — at the Lord's Christ tomb on His descent into the land of the dead.As the Catechism of the Catholic Church makes clear, “he descended there as Savior, proclaiming the good news to the spirits imprisoned there.”In the evening, as the sun sets, the Church gathers for Easter Vigil. The Church awaits the return in glory in its full splendor of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ.After the readings of the crucial moments in creation and salvation history, the Church anticipates the proclamation of the Lord's Resurrection by singing the Gloria, bells are rung, and the church is fully illuminated, anticipating Easter celebration.Dying with Christ is no recapitulation. As Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life, as St. Paul wrote.Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.

Read OnlineThe Savior of the World died a cruel death upon the Cross. His broken body was laid in the tomb. His disciples scattered and were fearful that they would be next. But our Blessed Mother kept vigil in the perfect hope that her Son would soon rise.Traditionally, Saturdays within the Church year are dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary. This ancient tradition developed in part due to the belief that, as others were filled with fear and confusion, Mother Mary kept vigil on Holy Saturday in prayerful anticipation of Jesus' resurrection. She knew her Son would rise. She had hope beyond hope. Her faith was certain. Her love kept her vigilant as she awaited the return of her Son.For many centuries, it has been suggested that the first person to whom Jesus appeared after His Resurrection was His own mother. Pope Saint John Paul II believed this. Saint Ignatius of Loyola believed it. And many others throughout the centuries shared this belief.For these reasons, Holy Saturday is an ideal day to ponder the pondering heart of our Blessed Mother. There are several times in Sacred Scripture where we are told that Mother Mary pondered the mysteries of her Son's life in her heart. She was one of the few who stood by Him in His agony and death. She stood before the Cross and prayerfully pondered His perfect sacrifice. The Blessed Mother held His dead body in her arms and pondered where His spirit had gone. And today she keeps vigil, pondering His imminent return to her.Ponder her pondering heart. Try to unite your own heart with hers. Try to understand what she was thinking and hoping. Try to feel what she felt this sorrowful day. Try to experience her faith, her trust and her joyful expectation. So many people in this world walk in despair and confusion.So many have lost hope in the new life that awaits them. So many have their own form of interior death without allowing God to draw them into His Resurrection. So many people today need the hope that was so alive in the heart of our Blessed Mother that first Holy Saturday. Ponder the reality of Holy Saturday in silence this day and allow the glorious heart of our Blessed Mother to inspire you and draw you more deeply into her life of faith, hope and love.Dearest Mother Mary, on that first Holy Saturday, you kept vigil for your Son. You allowed the divine gift of hope to grow within you, and you allowed that hope to be your strength in the midst of the horror of the Cross. Pray for me that I may ponder your beautiful heart this day so that I, too, may be filled with hope as I endure the challenges of this earthly life. Give me a heart of joyful anticipation as I await the grace of new life our Lord so deeply desires to bestow upon me. Mother Mary, pray for me.  Jesus, I do trust in You.  Guercino, Public domain, via Wikimedia CommonsSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc.

Jesus' journey through the Triduum—Friday, Saturday, and Sunday—reminds us that in between death and resurrection is the silence of Saturday. While Friday is full of suffering and Sunday bursts with hope, Saturday is the day of waiting, uncertainty, and God's apparent absence. For Jesus' followers, it felt like failure and abandonment. Yet, even in the silence, God was at work. We all live in “Saturday” seasons—those in-between moments where despair and hope wrestle. In these times, we are invited not to deny or despair, but to wait on the Lord, trusting that our story, like Jesus', might just be a third-day story too.Join the conversation in our FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1CnqywVp9s/Become New is here to help you grow spiritually one day at a time.John's new book STEPS is out!

Holy Saturday, that often-overlooked day in between, was a day of silence as the disciples and followers of Jesus mourned His death. It was a day of deep grief and painful lament. Jessica Herberger has been in her own Holy Saturdays ever since the death of her mother. Her grief led her to honor Holy Saturday, and she is passionate about teaching people ways that they too can mark the day in between. Join hosts, Elisa Morgan and Eryn Eddy Adkins, as they learn about Holy Saturday and the ways we can honor it with guest, Jessica Herberger, during this God Hears Her conversation.     Notes and Quotes:   “Holy Saturday is that time chronologically between the end of Good Friday and the beginning of Easter Sunday.” —Jessica Herberger    “I believe that there is not one single thing that happened between those days was accidental. I believe that every single thing that happened was God's kindness and showing His church how to live, and that has to include this 24-hour period of where it feels like nothing is happening.” —Jessica Herberger    “[Holy Saturday] makes [the hope of Easter] Sunday all the more richer when we realize that there was this dark, unknown period too. We're called to hold both.” —Jessica Herberger    “At its core, lament is relational. It is a means of demonstrating your personal relationship with a God who hears you, who wants to hear you cry about because you know where to go to cry out.” —Jessica Herberger    “As we know who Jesus is, we can then remember His character. Knowing God's character is really one of the most essential things someone can do to maintain a spiritually healthy life, because it is the filter that we must put everything.” —Jessica Herberger      Verses:   Luke 23:55-56    Links:   Jessica's Website: https://www.jessicaherberger.com/  Jessica's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jessherberger/  God Hears Her website: https://godhearsher.org/  God Hears Her email sign-up: https://www.godhearsher.org/sign-upsfmc   Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast  Elisa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elisamorganauthor/  Eryn's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/  Vivian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vivmabuni/  Our Daily Bread Ministries website: https://www.odbm.org/    MB01O2BAHS0OF3W
