Other topics include the meaning behind “I am not worthy” and the appropriateness of kneeling when the host is present.

Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 04:16 – Do I have to shake hands at the kiss of peace? 11:55 – When we say, I am not worthy… What does it mean when it says, only say the word… What is the word? 14:09 – Is it correct to kneel when the host is out of the tabernacle? 17:48 – How does the Catholic Mass differ from the Orthodox Mass? 22:35 – Is raising your hands during the ‘Our Father' encouraged? 28:48 – How do you handle explaining and wrapping peoples heads around the real presence without looking crazy? 36:53 – How is receiving communion in line vs at an altar rail viewed by the Church? 42:00 – What do all the hand movements after the consecration mean? 51:20 – My wife and I are in OCIA.

America is being dragged into another bloody, senseless war with Venezuela so the Rothschild cabal and Israel can steal their oil while your kids get sacrificed to the beast system. Scottie Nell Hughes joins Stew to blow the lid off this treason. We've been lied to every day since Charlie Kirk was assassinated in broad daylight, with the government, media, and influencers pushing a fake narrative to protect the real killers. On The Stew Peters Show, we're exposing the cabal, the contaminated crime scenes, and the Jewish operatives behind it all, because the truth about this spiritual war for our nation's survival won't be silenced.   John Jubilee joins Stew to expose how gluttony is the silent sin killing Christian men while fat preachers stay silent and 70% of guys can't even do one pull-up. Energized Health, the protocol John Jubilee built, is reversing jab injuries, turbo cancers, and obesity so real warriors actually live long enough to lead their families instead of dying in a reinforced coffin.

In this third episode of the Peace series, we shift from simply seeking calm to actively cultivating it through the breath. Today's practice features a gentle Peace Breath—a soothing technique that lengthens the exhale to settle the nervous system, quiet racing thoughts, and bring the whole body into a state of ease. As you slowly inhale and exhale, you'll be guided to melt tension, soften the shoulders, and release the internal pressure often stirred by busy seasons and crowded calendars. This is a simple rhythm with powerful effects, restoring a sense of spaciousness where stress once lived. This episode is an invitation to return to the peace that is already within you—one long, luxurious exhale at a time. When the world feels loud, the Peace Breath brings you home.

This is Christian Meditation for A Bigger Life – a time for you to relax your body and refocus your mind to experience the reality of God's presence. I'm Dave Cover. I want to help you with Christian meditation where you can break through all the distractions and experience God's presence through biblically guided imagination.  Getting a good night's sleep is a challenge for almost everyone. Especially when there are circumstances in our life we're uncertain about or regrets in our life we can't seem to move past. There's something about the nighttime that often brings out our anxiety and stress and insecurities more. It's amazing the difference of how you'll feel about your life circumstances at 2:00 a.m. versus in the morning when the sun is out. And when we read the Bible we realize this was an issue for David over 3000 years ago as well. Psalms 6:3, 6 (NIV) “My soul is in deep anguish. …All night long I flood my bed with weeping and drench my couch with tears.” It seems like I've had one or two nights like that in my life. But mostly whenever I can't sleep is when I can't figure out what to do with my worry or regrets. But David found the ability to sleep when he was able to entrust everything in his life and his life itself into the hands of God. Psalms 3:5 (NIV) “I lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the LORD sustains me.” Psalms 4:8 (NIV)  “In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, LORD, make me dwell in safety.” In spite of facing a multitude of enemies and hardships in his life — David is here choosing to trust and rest in the promise that God is in control. And all David can do now is pray to God for help and entrust things into his hands. And that's all you can do. All the things in your life right now that are causing anxiety, worry, uncertainty — envision yourself putting everything into God's hands. Ask him to do what you want him to do and then leave things in his hands. He may or may not do exactly what you want because he sees the total big picture, but things will turn out ultimately right for you when you trust them into the hands of a loving and good God.

Out of the rubble of Israel's genocidal war on Gaza, a grassroots movement of Jewish and Palestinian citizens inside Israel has emerged to forcefully reject a future of endless war and occupation.

Peace

Advent E2 — In the second week of Advent, we're reflecting on peace. The word most often translated as “peace” in the Hebrew Bible is shalom, but its meaning goes far beyond the absence of conflict. Shalom is about wholeness, completeness, and everything being as it should be. It describes uncut stones at an altar, honest weights in the marketplace, integrity of the heart, flourishing relationships, and life lived in harmony with God's purposes. In this episode, Jon and Tim trace the deep biblical meaning of peace and show how Advent points to the arrival of Jesus, the Prince of Peace, who reconciles divided people and makes them one.FULL SHOW NOTESFor chapter-by-chapter notes including summaries, referenced Scriptures, biblical words, and reflection questions, check out the full show notes for this episode.CHAPTERSShalom in Stones, Weights, and Hearts—and Also Fulfillment (00:00–15:15)Shalom as Well-Being and the Prince of Shalom  (15:15–29:21)Jesus, Our Peace (29:21–35:38)Reflections on Peace With Allison (35:38-39:42)OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPTView this episode's official transcript.REFERENCED RESOURCESShalom / Peace: Though not referenced directly in the episode, this 2017 video explores the same biblical word, shalom.Check out Tim's extensive collection of recommended books here.SHOW MUSIC“Silver N Gold” by  Lofi Sunday & Yoni Charis“Snow Fall” by Lofi Sunday & TBabz “Snowflakes” by AvesBibleProject theme song by TENTS SHOW CREDITSProduction of today's episode is by Lindsey Ponder, producer, and Cooper Peltz, managing producer.

BESSENT: “To be clear, the initial fraud was discovered by the IRS, for which I'm the acting commissioner, it was discovered by IRS criminal investigations unit.” “This was not endogenous that the state of Minnesota decided. We had to go in and clean up the mess for them. This is part of the continued cleanup.” “A lot of money has been transferred from the individuals who committed this fraud, including those who donated to the governor, donated to representative Omar and to AG Ellison.” “They have been transferred to something called MBSs.” “They are wire transfer organizations that are outside the regulated banking system. That money has gone overseas. We are tracking that, both to the Middle East and Somalia to see what the uses of that have been.” BRENNAN: “You have no evidence of that money being used to fuel terrorism at this point? Which is what some conservative writers are alleging.” BESSENT: “That's why it's an investigation. We started it last week. We will see where it goes.” “I can tell you, it's terrible. Representative Omar tried to downplay it. Said it was very…it was very tough to know how this money should be used.

Basically, the EU said: stop booting people out before hearing their appeals. Hungary said no thanks. So now Brussels is punishing Hungary for not letting in enough migrants, mostly from Africa and the Middle East, while the rest of the continent watches. The European Court says it’s about “human rights.” Hungary says it’s about borders. You don't have to agree with Hungary to notice what's going on.

A stateless vessel has no right to the protections normally afforded to ships under a national flag, including immunity from interference by other states. UNCLOS Articles 92, 94, 110, and customary maritime law spell out the consequences clearly: 1. Stateless vessels have no sovereign protection. A flagged ship is an extension of its flag-state's sovereignty. A stateless vessel is not. This matters because “war crimes” presuppose protected persons or protected property. A stateless vessel is legally unprotected. 2. Any state may stop, board, search, seize, or disable, a stateless vessel. UNCLOS Article 110 explicitly authorizes boarding and seizure. The law does not require states to risk their own personnel or assets while doing so. Disabling a vessel that refuses inspection, including firing on it, is legally permitted under both UNCLOS and long-established state practice. 3. War crimes require an armed conflict. You cannot commit a “war crime” outside an armed conflict. War crimes occur only within the context of international humanitarian law (IHL). Enforcing maritime law against a stateless vessel is a law enforcement action, not an IHL situation. No armed conflict = no war crime possible. 4. Lethal force may be used when a vessel refuses lawful orders. The International Maritime Organization's “Use of Force” guidance for maritime interdiction recognizes that disabling fire, even lethal force, is lawful when a vessel refuses lawful boarding, attempts to flee, poses a threat, or engages in illicit activities such as piracy or narcotics trafficking. Once again: law enforcement rules apply, not IHL. 5. Sinking a stateless vessel is not prohibited by UNCLOS. UNCLOS permits seizure of a stateless vessel and leaves the means entirely to the enforcing state so long as necessity and proportionality are respected. If the vessel flees, attacks, or refuses lawful commands, sinking it is legally permissible. Many states routinely do this to drug-smuggling vessels (e.g., semi-submersibles) without it ever being treated as a war crime. 6. No flag = no jurisdictional shield. The entire reason international law requires ships to fly a flag is to prevent this exact situation. Flagless vessels are legally vulnerable by design. Because a stateless vessel has no protected status, because UNCLOS authorizes interdiction of such vessels, because lethal force may be used in maritime law enforcement when necessary, and because war crimes require an armed conflict that is not present here, sinking an unflagged ship in international waters is not a war crime. War/Peace https://twitter.com/InsiderGeo/status/1997834841723908411?s=20 US Issues NATO’s European Members New Self-Defense Deadline European members of NATO have been warned by Washington that they must assume greater responsibility for the alliance’s intelligence operations and missile production – which will require significantly more defense spending by 2027, Reuters has reported. Reuters in its exclusive Friday report said that the United States “wants Europe to take over the majority of NATO’s conventional defense capabilities, from intelligence to missiles, by 2027, Pentagon officials told diplomats in Washington this week, a tight deadline that struck some European officials as unrealistic.” “The message, recounted by five sources familiar with the discussion, including a U.S. official, was conveyed at a meeting in Washington this week of Pentagon staff overseeing NATO policy and several European delegations,” the report continued. The directive was coupled with a warning behind the scenes, reportedly involving Pentagon officials cautioning representatives from several European nations that the US may scale back its role in certain NATO defense efforts if this target and deadline is not met.It was noted in the report that some European officials consider the 2027 goal unrealistic, saying that rapidly substituting American military support would demand far greater investment than current plans and NATO member approved defense budgets allow.

When the Democrats overwhelmingly lost the 2024 Presidential Election, and power with it, they, regardless, did everything they could to keep going after the Cuellar family. The Dems were vicious, and all because Henry strongly wanted, correctly, BORDER SECURITY! He was against illegals pouring into our Country, totally unchecked and unvetted. The Congressman didn't want gang members, drug dealers, violent prisoners, people from mental institutions and yes, even murderers, in the good ol' USA. It was all very unfair what they were doing to him and his family, so much so that his daughters wrote me a beautiful letter about their parents (Just posted on TRUTH!). After reading it I decided, in the interest of justice, and based on the daughter's loving request, that I would give Henry and Imelda a Full and Complete Pardon. I never spoke to the Congressman, his wife, or his daughters, but felt very good about fighting for a family that was tormented by very sick and deranged people – They were treated sooo BADLY! I signed the papers, and said to people in the Oval Office that I just did a very good, perhaps life saving, thing. God was very happy with me that day! THEN IT HAPPENED!!! Only a short time after signing the Pardon, Congressman Henry Cuellar announced that he will be “running” for Congress again, in the Great State of Texas (a State where I received the highest number of votes ever recorded!), as a Democrat, continuing to work with the same Radical Left Scum that just weeks before wanted him and his wife to spend the rest of their lives in Prison – And probably still do! Such a lack of LOYALTY, something that Texas Voters, and Henry's daughters, will not like. Oh' well, next time, no more Mr. Nice guy! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP    Trump hating, 60 Minutes “correspondent,” Lesley Stahl, who still owes me an apology from when she attacked me on the show (with serious conviction!), that Hunter Biden's LAPTOP FROM HELL was produced by Russia, not Hunter himself (TOTALLY PROVEN WRONG!), interviewed a very poorly prepared Traitor, who in her confusion made many really stupid statements. My real problem with the show, however, wasn't the low IQ traitor, it was that the new ownership of 60 Minutes, Paramount, would allow a show like this to air. THEY ARE NO BETTER THAN THE OLD OWNERSHIP, who just paid me millions of Dollars for FAKE REPORTING about your favorite President, ME! Since they bought it, 60 Minutes has actually gotten WORSE! Oh well, far worse things can happen. P.S. I hereby demand a complete and total APOLOGY, though far too late to be meaningful, from Lesley Stahl and 60 Minutes for her incorrect and Libelous statements about Hunter's Laptop!!!

Just beyond infuriating. STUNNING UPDATE: Jocelyn Ballantine – the Lead Attorney Assigned to J6 Pipe Bomber Case – Notoriously Pressured the Proud Boys to Lie About Trump's Involvement in Jan. 6 or Face Decades in Prison!    Jocelyn Ballantine was one of the Department of Justice attorneys assigned to Michael Flynn's prosecution. The Department admitted altering evidence in the case following a reprimand from the judge. She called this an inadvertent mistake at the time. Ballantine also provided altered documents to Sidney Powell, and submitted an FBI interview report with redactions to information that was crucial to the case, according to En-Wikipedia.  When the US government threw out the case against  General Flynn, Ballantine declined to sign the motion to dismiss the charges against him. She is as crooked as they come. Jocelyn Ballantine was later assigned to the infamous Proud Boys Trial. Ballantine and the Biden prosecutors made up evidence, pressured the defendants to lie to the court, planted evidence in the Proud Boys chat group, and led the charge to send the innocent men to prison for over a decade each.   Source: thegatewaypundit.com https://twitter.com/TheStormRedux/status/1997495783168299481?s=20   a grand jury process, and we are issuing – I think we are up to like 75 of 100 subpoenas already – for witnesses.

My guest today is entrepreneur and LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman. He's now facing something most tech business people never imagine: being personally targeted by a sitting president's Department of Justice. Reid and I talk through the rise of politically motivated prosecutions, the erosion of trust in institutions, and how social media and AI have accelerated our collective slide into suspicion. We get into deepfakes, vaccine skepticism, the inequality debate, and whether billionaires should exist at all. Reid also walks me through what it's like to wait for an indictment he believes is purely retaliatory. This is a conversation about democratic guardrails, not partisan talking points—and about what happens when political power becomes personal. Learn more about your ad choices.

Founding the Fellowship: Amateur Spies and the Quest for Peace: Colleague Charles Spicer introduces Ernest Tennant, a British WWI veteran deeply traumatized by the loss of his peers, who established a connection with Joachim von Ribbentrop, then an Anglophile, to bridge the gap between London and Berlin, leading to the creation of the Anglo-German Fellowship; key figures include the scholar Philip Conwell-Evans and Lord Lothian, with the Travelers Club in London serving as the operational hub where these "amateur spies" sought to civilize the Nazis through diplomacy. 1933

Some people seem born with the gift of hospitality. The moment you step through their doorway, peace meets you like a warm blanket. The room smells inviting, your needs are anticipated, and the details have been thoughtfully arranged with love. Many of us admire these “natural hostesses,” even if we don’t see those qualities in ourselves. Alicia Searl shares honestly that hosting doesn’t come as easily for her anymore—especially now that the holidays feel heavier, the gatherings larger, and the expectations higher. When she learned it was her turn to host Christmas, her first reaction wasn’t joy but stress. Yet the Lord softened her heart and reminded her of something far more important than décor, menus, or perfect planning: Hospitality is ultimately about peace, not presentation. In Luke 10, Jesus sends out seventy-two disciples with one simple instruction upon entering a home:“First say, ‘Peace to this house.’”No elaborate preparations. No expectations. Peace was the first gift exchanged. If peace rested there, they were to stay, share meals, and bring the good news of God’s kingdom. If not, the peace simply returned to them, and they moved on. Simple. Sacred. Purposeful. Hospitality is one of the primary ways believers embody the heart of Christ. Whether our homes are large or small, tidy or lived-in, beautifully decorated or simple, we are called to cultivate atmospheres where peace dwells. Our mission field begins at our front door.The people who enter our homes—and the homes into which we enter—should encounter the peace of Christ through us. This season, whether you’re hosting Christmas, visiting relatives, or gathering with neighbors, you have the opportunity to bring peace into every room you enter. Today's Bible Reading:“When you enter a house, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’ If someone who promotes peace is there, your peace will rest on them; if not, it will return to you. Stay there, eating and drinking whatever they give you… Do not move around from house to house.” – Luke 10:5–7 Main Takeaways True hospitality is not about perfection—it's about peace. Jesus instructs us to bless homes with peace before anything else. Our homes can become places of ministry through simple, Christ-centered welcome. The peace of Christ rests where hearts are open, and it returns unharmed where it is not. Peace on earth begins with peace exchanged between believers in everyday relationships. Let’s Pray Father God, Thank You for giving us a beautiful model of hospitality through Your Word. Help us to release the pressures of hosting and instead focus on welcoming people with Your peace. Soften our hearts toward every person who enters our home and every home we enter this season. Teach us to greet others with grace, truth, and love. Fill our homes with Your presence so they may radiate peace on earth in the most ordinary and sacred ways. Let the atmosphere within our walls reflect the hope we have in Christ, and may our hospitality become a testimony of Your goodness. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Michael Cohen reacts to Trump's completely humiliating weekend as he once again tried to strut around like the most important person alive. Trump hosted the Kennedy Center Honors (the first time a president has ever done so), hinted that he should win the award next year (while sitting on the board that decides it), and even pinned on his own made-up “FIFA Medal of Peace.” Learn more about your ad choices.

Today on Mea Culpa, I welcome back my longtime friend, Anthony Scaramucci, for a blistering, unfiltered breakdown of the chaos coming from our old boss. We dig into Trump's deadly “drug boat” strikes, the horrific National Guard shooting, and the growing pattern of violence fueled by political lies. Scaramucci and I expose how Trump's impulsive decision-making, collapsing inner circle, and obsession with ego over governance are destabilizing everything from foreign to domestic policy. We also unpack Trump's bizarre branding spree, from slapping his name on the U.S. Institute of Peace to chasing billions through global deals, and why the military, Congress, and even Republicans are reaching a breaking point.

Eric and Eliot return from Thanksgiving to dissect the revelations from the Washington Post about the double-tap strike on an alleged Venezuelan drug boat in September. They discuss whether the strike was a war crime, the resignation of SOUTHCOM Commander Admiral Alvin Holsey, and the administration's larger objectives in Venezuela. They also address the Department of Defense IG report on Signalgate, and explain why it does not constitute a ‘complete exoneration'. They conclude with a discussion of the Witkoff-Kushner “mission to Moscow”, the corruption crisis in Ukraine that ousted Presidential Chief of Staff Yermak, and the Wall Street Journal's coverage of the Trump cronies lining up to do business deals in Russia once the Ukrainians can be forced into submission.

in this episode of this is kingdom: a good news brand podcast, grace, tj, talon, and hollis talk about elder gary e. stevenson's message “blessed are the peacemakers” and reflect on what it means to create real peace in a world filled with noise, conflict, and things we cannot control. they share personal experiences, insights from conference, and simple daily practices that help bring more calm into your heart, your home, and your community. the hosts also discuss managing emotions, choosing compassion, and letting go of the things that disturb your peace. the episode ends with a hymn and an invitation to focus on what you can control and choose peacemaking in your everyday life.

The presence of God is an amazing thing. To think that God is with us is incredible. God is omnipresent. He is always with us. In fact, He promised to never leave us or forsake us. But if that is true, why don't we experience more peace? The answer is that we are not always aware of God's presence.Main Points:1. J. Oswald Sanders - “Peace is not the absence of trouble, but the presence of God.”2. Most often, we are more aware of our fears, anxieties, problems, and struggles. These present difficulties occupy our thoughts and emotions. We can let them take over. But when we are consumed with fear, worry, and anxiety, we are less consumed with thoughts about God. So, the issue is not about God's location. The issue is with our awareness of His presence.3. So, let me ask you: How aware are you today of God's presence? Are your thoughts focused on the Lord? Have you spent time with him today? Have you read His Word and allowed it to speak to your soul? Have you made time to worship and pray? Spending time with God is the most important thing you will do today. Today's Scripture Verses:Philippians 4:6-7 - Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group

Watch the full episode on our YouTube channel: youtube.com/@mreapodcastWhat would your business look like if every agent on your team hit their numbers with clarity and peace?In this episode, we sit down with Shelby Ryburn of The More Real Estate Group — one of the most process-driven, high-accountability teams in the U.S. Shelby and her partners close 210+ units and $135M in volume per year, and they do it with a simple but powerful system: Attract. Select. Coach. Shelby walks us through how she went from a 20-year-old property management receptionist to running recruiting and development for a Fortune 100 company, to building one of the most intentional teams in real estate. She breaks down why process creates predictability, why predictability creates peace, and how the right standards unlock an agent's true potential.We dig into her team's multi-step interview process, how she coaches new agents using the MREA model, and why “the path is in the math” might be the most freeing mindset shift an agent can make. Shelby shows us how to reverse engineer any production goal into daily actions, remove interference, and coach with the perfect mix of challenge and support. If you want a business that grows with intention — not chaos — this is the model you'll want to study.Resources:Millionaire Real Estate Agent Podcast NotesMAPS CoachingThe Landmark ForumMillionaire Real Estate Agent Playbook | Volume 3Connect with Jason: LinkedInProduced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

Jesus is our peace, and Scripture shows why His peace is unlike anything the world can offer. God is not the author of confusion but of peace, and Jesus gives us a gift of peace for our minds and hearts, calling us not to be troubled or afraid. Jesus Himself is perfectly at peace with the Father, and through faith we have peace with God. Even in discipline God produces a peaceful harvest in those He trains. Christ sits at the right hand of the Father, and we are called to set our minds on the realities of heaven. The greatest way for us to walk in lasting peace is to keep our trust and thoughts fixed on God, for He promises to keep in perfect peace all who look to Him.

Jeremiah 33:1–16 (Listen) The Lord Promises Peace 33:1 The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah a second time, while he was still shut up in the court of the guard: 2 “Thus says the LORD who made the earth,1 the LORD who formed it to establish it—the LORD is his name: 3 Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known. 4 For thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city and the houses of the kings of Judah that were torn down to make a defense against the siege mounds and against the sword: 5 They are coming in to fight against the Chaldeans and to fill them2 with the dead bodies of men whom I shall strike down in my anger and my wrath, for I have hidden my face from this city because of all their evil. 6 Behold, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal them and reveal to them abundance of prosperity and security. 7 I will restore the fortunes of Judah and the fortunes of Israel, and rebuild them as they were at first. 8 I will cleanse them from all the guilt of their sin against me, and I will forgive all the guilt of their sin and rebellion against me. 9 And this city3 shall be to me a name of joy, a praise and a glory before all the nations of the earth who shall hear of all the good that I do for them. They shall fear and tremble because of all the good and all the prosperity I provide for it. 10 “Thus says the LORD: In this place of which you say, ‘It is a waste without man or beast,' in the cities of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem that are desolate, without man or inhabitant or beast, there shall be heard again 11 the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voices of those who sing, as they bring thank offerings to the house of the LORD:   “‘Give thanks to the LORD of hosts,    for the LORD is good,    for his steadfast love endures forever!' For I will restore the fortunes of the land as at first, says the LORD. 12 “Thus says the LORD of hosts: In this place that is waste, without man or beast, and in all of its cities, there shall again be habitations of shepherds resting their flocks. 13 In the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the Shephelah, and in the cities of the Negeb, in the land of Benjamin, the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, flocks shall again pass under the hands of the one who counts them, says the LORD. The Lord's Eternal Covenant with David 14 “Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will fulfill the promise I made to the house of Israel and the house of Judah. 15 In those days and at that time I will cause a righteous Branch to spring up for David, and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. 16 In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell securely. And this is the name by which it will be called: ‘The LORD is our righteousness.' Footnotes [1] 33:2 Septuagint; Hebrew it [2] 33:5 That is, the torn-down houses [3] 33:9 Hebrew And it (ESV)
