In this episode of the On Mission podcast, Founding Director Father Frank Donio, S.A.C., and Sarah Scalfaro, Director of Administration, are joined by Project Coordinator Brian Rhude to discuss the U.S. bishops' decision to consecrate the country to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Coinciding with the nation's 250th anniversary, this dedication offers a moment to reflect on religious freedom and reorient the nation toward Christ amidst ongoing turmoil. Father Frank highlights the historical context, noting the devotion's connection to Pope Pius XI's 1925 institution of the Feast of Christ the King to acknowledge Christ's kingship amid global oppression. The conversation emphasizes that this consecration reminds the Church and laity to serve the Lord and sanctify the temporal order, rather than focusing on political control. Topics discussed also include the Sacred Heart portrayed in art, and devotions in history including Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque. This episode also provides simple ways to develop a personal devotion to the Sacred Heart, as well as discussions of prayer practices to deepen it.

Because it required me to sit across from one of my closest friends and one of the most gifted men I know when it comes to the presence of God, and admit that I've been struggling. Struggling to feel connected. Struggling to cultivate that place with the Holy Spirit that I know I'm supposed to have — especially after walking through five weeks of watching my mother-in-law die of cancer. That's not an easy thing to say as a pastor. But I said it anyway. And what Michael gave me back was one of the most practically powerful and spiritually deep conversations I've ever had on this podcast.Michael Koulianos leads Jesus Image, a church and global movement, and there is genuinely no one I know who flows in the presence of God the way he does. In this episode, he walks us through his personal morning prayer routine — two hours, early, consistent for 20 years — and breaks down exactly what it looks like: silence, Bible reading from Genesis to Revelation looking for Jesus the whole way, worship, and a prayer list he's been building for years with names being crossed off one by one. But more than the mechanics, he talks about what it means to feel God's presence not as an emotional high but as a continual awareness. And he talks about mourning — why giving yourself permission to grieve is actually the door that opens to the Holy Spirit's comfort.We also get into the real cost of leading a movement, the false sense of responsibility that burns leaders out, what God is actually doing on the earth right now, and why the cross isn't just the starting point of the Christian life — it's the whole shape of it. If you're a man who's been running on empty spiritually, or you've been grinding so hard you've lost the thread of why you started, this episode will recalibrate you. Carve out the time to watch the whole thing. It's worth every minute.Chapters:00:00 – Welcome: Jason Gets Honest07:15 – Little Ezra, Grief, and Why Mourning Opens the Door14:31 – Sensing vs. Feeling21:46 – Inside Michael's Morning Routine29:01 – Prayer Lists, John Eldridge, and Hearing God's Promises36:16 – How to Find Jesus in Every Page of Scripture 43:32 – The Hardest Part of Leading a Movement50:47 – Burnout, Boundaries, His Church Doubling While Michael Couldn't Speak58:02 – What God Is Doing on Earth Right Now1:05:17 – Living on His Mission, the Cross-Shaped Life & Closing PrayerCONNECT WITH BRAVECOJoin Our Free Community for Men (ladies, sign up your man): https://www.braveco.orgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/braveco.menInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/braveco.men/Shop: https://shop.braveco.org/ABOUT BRAVECO: We live in a time where men are hunting for the truth and looking for the codebook to manhood.

Host Radell Lewis sits down with Pastor LaTrina Slater, a mental health professional with over twenty years in the field and author of a new book chronicling her journey reconciling Christianity with her identity as a gay woman. LaTrina serves as pastor of an affirming church and founded Grace Revolution, a ministry focused on youth, adults, and families in marginalized communities. This conversation lands in the middle of a national reckoning over Christian nationalism, after President Trump posted (and deleted) an AI generated image depicting himself in the likeness of Jesus Christ, sparking backlash from evangelicals, Catholics, and Pope Leo XIV. LaTrina and Radell unpack how MAGA Christianity has hijacked the faith, why so many Christians have been duped into tolerating anti Christian behavior in the name of two wedge issues (abortion and gay marriage), and what genuine Biblical values actually demand of believers. Topics covered include: affirming theology and LGBTQ Christianity, the weaponization of scripture against the queer community, why choice and free will are one hundred percent Biblical, how Christian values (generosity, charity, healing, feeding the hungry, sacrificing for neighbors) align with progressive and left leaning politics, the Pope Leo XIV feud, Christian nationalism versus authentic Christianity, and why the "fake Christian" crisis is really a political power grab dressed in religious clothing. LaTrina also offers a framework for reading sin through the lens of harm rather than inherited dogma, and makes a direct case to skeptical left leaning listeners that Christians belong in the progressive coalition. Whether you are agnostic, atheist, LGBTQ Christian, a person of faith feeling politically homeless, or someone who grew up in the church and walked away, this episode opens space for a conversation the mainstream refuses to have.

Podcast Notes - Jesus Image Church Construction Discussion Episode Overview Jake and Matt discuss Jesus Image Church's impressive $44 million building project in Orlando, featuring traditional Gothic-inspired architecture and innovative tilt-up construction techniques. Key Discussion Points Traditional Church Architecture Revival Jesus Image Church building actually looks like a church (rare in modern construction) Gothic architecture elements with arched windows Stone facade reminiscent of historical church construction Departure from typical strip mall/warehouse church designs Tilt-Up Construction Technique Industrial/commercial construction method adapted for church use Process: Pour concrete walls as slabs on ground → Frame windows/openings → Let cure → Use cranes to tilt walls into position Much faster than traditional masonry (decades vs. weeks) Requires expensive crane equipment but overall more efficient than historical cathedral construction Project Scale & Phasing Phase 1: $28.6 million, 56,000 square feet Phase 2: Additional $16 million expansion Total Investment: $44+ million Smart phased approach allows use of Phase 1 while planning/fundraising for Phase 2 Simpler sanctuary design in Phase 1, enhanced sanctuary in Phase 2 Jesus Image Church Context Known for charismatic, powerful ministry style Innovative in ministry approach, now extending to architecture Multiple ministries: worship, ministry school, prayer ministry Heavy building usage beyond Sunday services justifies investment Architecture Philosophy Discussion Modern churches often designed for easy conversion (school, gym, commercial use) Jesus Image building will "never be anything but a church" Debate: Cost-effectiveness vs. purpose-built sacred spaces Traditional approach: building took centuries, but created lasting landmarks Architecture's role in facilitating impactful worship experiences Budget Reality Check $44 million not accessible to most churches Equipment costs (cranes) vs. long-term construction savings Question of whether traditional design is worth the premium cost Comparison to strip mall churches and pragmatic building approaches Ministry Integration Building supports multiple ministry functions Architecture chosen to complement their charismatic worship style Investment in excellence across all ministry aspects Physical space designed to enhance spiritual encounters Quotes & Notable Moments Jake: "It's almost got like a gothic architecture look to it with those arched windows." Matt: "They're not building a lot of our modern church buildings. If the church closed, the building would be quickly taken up by someone else that's not a church... But this is never going to be anything but a church." Jake: "I think we're missing out on the power of architecture to support and facilitate impactful worship." Takeaways Traditional church architecture is making a comeback in some circles Modern construction techniques can make historical designs more feasible Phased construction allows ambitious projects without overextending Purpose-built worship spaces vs. multi-use flexibility is an ongoing debate Architecture can be a ministry tool, not just a practical necessity Future Content Ideas Tech tour of Jesus Image when construction is complete Comparison series: Traditional vs. Modern church architecture Construction technique deep-dives for church building projects Budget-friendly ways to incorporate traditional design elements Action Items Plan potential visit to Jesus Image Church construction site Research other churches using similar traditional design approaches Investigate cost comparisons between construction methods

Worship is not a genre or a playlist, but a radically surrendered life of obedience before the Lord. Michael Koulianos, founder of Jesus Image, Jesus Image Church, and Jesus School in Orlando, Florida, reminds us that worship requires face to face interaction with God. Worship is just simply giving back to God what He has given us.

Many of us, after receiving revelation of the truth, end up leaving our church establishment. The church has fallen so far from the biblical model, but how do we practice church the way the disciples did? How do we build a fruitful fellowship in the home? This, and a lot more in this episode.
Bart Ehrman claims that the Gospels are anonymous because the names attached to them are too convenient and were added a century later, and because the disciples of Jesus were too illiterate to write such exquisite Greek texts. Has Dr. Ehrman overstated the case? This episode is in response to the comments that critical New Testament scholar Bart Ehrman has made in writing and to interviewers, such as in the video highlighted in our episode: Bart Ehrman on the Bible's Authors ( https://youtu.be/pDfYA21lDic ). Also mentioned in this episode was Simon Gathercole's article "The Alleged Anonymity of the Canonical Gospels" in The Journal of Theological Studies (2018), Craig Evans' Jesus and the Manuscripts (Hendrickson Academic, 2020), and Brant Pitre's The Case for Jesus (Image: 2016).
