Before Ezra and his companions start on their long journey to Israel, problems already arise that need ironed out: No Levites decided to make the journey, so Ezra needs to find some willing Levites to change their minds Ezra felt ashamed to ask the king for assistance from the Persian army, so he orders a 3-day long fast to ask for protection from God Ezra immediately gives the Priests and Levites temple duties before setting out This chapter highlights the importance of faith and obedience, noting that Ezra and the Israelites trusted in God's power to protect them on their journey. It also emphasizes the significance of listening to God's call, citing the example of the Levites who initially refused to join the journey but eventually answered God's call and were blessed. Lastly, this episode concludes with a discussion on the importance of treating offerings to God with respect and reverence. Jenn notes that any offering given to God is considered holy and should be treated as such.

In this episode, we sit down with the team behind Journey Home Animal Control, a community-driven organization redefining what animal control can look like. Built on compassion, education, and real-world problem solving, Journey Home is filling critical gaps in traditional services—helping keep pets with the families who love them while supporting communities in practical, humane ways.We dive into their innovative approach to lost pet recovery, including the use of trail cameras and behavior-based strategies, and explore how programs like Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) and their Home-to-Home rehoming model are reducing shelter intake while improving outcomes for animals and people alike. Founder Rachael shares how a background in veterinary medicine and a passion for community outreach led to the creation of an organization that blends animal control with empathy—challenging outdated perceptions and proving that enforcement and compassion don't have to be at odds. This conversation is a must-listen for animal control officers, shelter professionals, and anyone interested in the future of community-based animal welfare. If you've ever wondered what it looks like to meet people where they are—and keep more animals out of the shelter system—this episode delivers.

*Click HERE to watch the interview on WCAT TVShownotesWe might often find ourselves going to the rote prayers of the Rosary or even the Divine Mercy Chaplet. While we may think they are separate, are they really so separate in terms of how we think of them? Or is there a way that God can bring us together through both of these prayers? Is there a way that they can, no pun intended, marry each other? In this week's episode, Jennifer has a conversation with guest, Shane Kapler, to discuss the fact that there is a relationship between the Rosary and the Divine Mercy Chaplet.Our GuestFor the past 30 years Shane has been involved in evangelism and catechesis within the Archdiocese of St. Louis. He holds an M.A. in Theology with a Specialization in Sacred Scripture. Shane currently serves on the board of the Image of God Institute, an apostolate dedicated to unpacking God's plan for the human person in the teachings of Popes St. John Paul II and Benedict XVI.He is also the author of several books, including the one we will be discussing today, Marrying the Rosary to the Divine Mercy Chaplet (2016). He has been featured on EWTN's The Journey Home, is a frequent guest of Catholic radio, and contributes articles to a number of websites, including Catholic Exchange and Epic Pew.

What does it look like? Could it use a reset? Take some time to reflect on this.How often do you pray the Rosary?What are your thoughts on the fact that there are so many similarities between the Rosary and Divine Mercy Chaplet? Did you ever think about the fact that there could be a relationship between them?Have you ever tried Lectio Divina, the practice of taking a particular verse on scripture and mediating on it? If not, try it practicing the prayerIn talking about the best time to pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet being three o'clock, Shane brought up the point that “it's three o'clock somewhere.” Does that give you encouragement to pray it more frequently, regardless of what time it might be where you are?

Fearless with Mark & Amber

Pornography is one of the most hidden struggles inside the church today, yet very few pastors openly address it. In this episode of Fearless with Mark & Amber, we tackle difficult but necessary questions about pornography, sexual intimacy within marriage, and what Scripture actually teaches. Is pornography ever acceptable within marriage?
What about creating explicit content between spouses?
Why is the church often silent about this growing issue? Drawing from personal testimony, biblical teaching, and current research, we discuss the spiritual, relational, and cultural consequences of pornography — and how believers can find true freedom through Christ. If the church doesn't address these issues, culture will. This conversation is meant for married adults and mature listeners, and offers biblical encouragement, accountability, and hope for those seeking restoration. In This Episode • The growing pornography problem inside the church 
• Why many pastors avoid discussing sexual sin
 • Biblical teaching on intimacy within marriage
 • Can pornography ever be justified in Christian marriage? 
• The dangers of bringing worldly sexual practices into the home 
• The spiritual leadership role of husbands 
• How addiction and secrecy destroy marriages

In this episode of The Growing Readers Podcast, host Bianca Schulze welcomes New York Times bestselling author Sara Pennypacker to discuss her powerful new historical novel, The Lions' Run. Sara shares how her father's experience as a teenage POW in a German prison camp during World War II influenced the story—and how a little-known Nazi program called the Lebensborn became the emotional trigger that set her empathetic orphan hero, Lucas, into action.From redefining what courage looks like for young readers to trusting kids with big, complicated questions about justice and resistance, Sara reveals why empathy is the true root of all bravery, how Joseph Campbell's storytelling wisdom shaped a pivotal cherry strudel scene, and why Jon Klassen's breathtaking cover art inspired her to go back and make the book even better.Whether you're a parent looking for meaningful middle grade historical fiction, an educator exploring WWII through a fresh lens, or a fan of Pax eager to see what Sara does next, this conversation is a moving celebration of quiet heroism and the enduring power of story.Read the transcript on ⁠The Children's Book Review (coming soon)⁠.Highlights:The Epigraph That Says It All: Why an African proverb about elephants and grass perfectly captures the heart of the bookThe Lebensborn Program: The little-known Nazi eugenics program that inspired the story—and why Sara felt compelled to bring it to light for kidsEmpathy as Courage: Why Lucas was never really a coward, and why Sara believes true bravery always begins with caring about someone other than yourselfThe Termite Theory: How many small, quiet acts of resistance—not one loud heroic moment—can take down something enormousCherry Strudel and Joseph Campbell: How the antagonist's own power gets turned against her in one of the most satisfying scenes in the bookJon Klassen's Cover: How seeing the finished art sent Sara back to her manuscript for one final, vibe-elevating revisionBig Cheese Preview: A sneak peek at Sara's next book—and why she's finally giving a child character all the powerNotable Quotes:"The true root of all courage is empathy.

Septuagesima is the Church's merciful call to begin preparing for the Lenten journey, reminding believers that earthly life is a temporary exile and a pilgrimage back to the heavenly Jerusalem. Drawing on biblical symbolism of the number seventy and St. Gregory the Great's interpretation of the laborers in the vineyard, the message emphasizes that we live in the “eleventh hour,” yet are promised the same reward of eternal life by God's generosity rather than our merit. Pre-Lent is described as a motherly warning to simplify life, practice temperance, and prepare through fasting, prayer, repentance, forgiveness, and renewed spiritual discipline. Holding together sorrow for sin and hopeful joy in Christ's healing, the sermon urges the faithful to respond with humility and urgency, remembering that time is short and the Master still calls all into His vineyard of repentance and resurrection hope.
