Bonus Episode #55 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan re-enters the fog in Silent Hill f. After thirteen years of waiting, Silent Hill returns with a bold new entry that trades American decay for 1960s rural Japan. In this comprehensive review, we delve into Silent Hill f, exploring how developer NeoBards Entertainment and writer Ryukishi07 have reimagined the legendary horror franchise. From the fog-shrouded streets of Ebisugaoka to the nightmarish Otherworld shrine complex, we examine every aspect of protagonist Hinako Shimizu's harrowing journey through psychological terror, toxic relationships, and unwanted transformation. This episode features an extensive breakdown of the game's stunning soundtrack, composed by Silent Hill veteran Akira Yamaoka alongside Kensuke Inage, Dai, and Xaki. We discuss how Yamaoka infuses his signature industrial sound with Japanese essence, and how Inage corrupts traditional gagaku court music into something nightmarish. We also cover the game's atmospheric presentation, melee-focused combat system, cultural symbolism, technical performance on PC, and whether this risky departure from series tradition successfully captures what makes Silent Hill special. Email the show at bgmaniapodcast@gmail.com with requests for upcoming episodes, questions, feedback, comments, concerns, or any other thoughts you'd like to share! Special thanks to our Executive Producers: Jexak, Xancu, Jeff, & Mike.

We teach how vision emerges in dark seasons and why some problems “stick” to certain people as their assignment. Through Nehemiah's prayer, lament, and bold ask, we trace how God turns delay and depression into favor, access, and the timber to build.• Kislev as a metaphor for dark seasons and emerging light• Nehemiah's burden and why problems stick to visionaries• Lament, confession, fasting, and prayer as the path to clarity• The mid-prayer shift from describing problems to asking for favor• Positioning as providence: the cupbearer's access and your placement• Delay, disobedience, and how depression becomes a doorway• Four faces of favor: reversal, time, protection, and timber• A burden for youth, safe spaces, and practical community building• Bold requests, unexpected provision, and moving from plan to build Welcome To Chosen City Church!

Out of the Ashes l Week 2: The Language of Lament | Jerry Gillis
DateOctober 5, 2025SynopsisIn this sermon, the first of our Scary Stories sermon series, we confront the haunting narrative that "might makes right" and discover a profound alternative: God's power is made perfect in weakness. Through the ancient prophet Habakkuk's honest laments and patient waiting, we learn that true strength isn't found in domination or self-reliance, but in admitting our need for God. When we embrace our human limitations instead of denying, distracting, or deflecting from them, we tap into a divine power that transforms both us and the world around us.ReferencesScripture: Habbakuk 1:1–4; 2:1–4About The Local ChurchFor more information about The Local Church, visit our website.

The post Hurt: Job’s Lament appeared first on Blue Ridge Bible Church.
The fall of families, organizations, traditions, etc. Lament! Rev 18:1-8 18 After this I saw another angel coming down from heaven. He had great authority, and the earth was illuminated by his splendor. 2 With a mighty voice he shouted: “‘Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great!'[a] She has become a dwelling for demons and a haunt for every impure spirit, a haunt for every unclean bird, a haunt for every unclean and detestable animal. 3 For all the nations have drunk the maddening wine of her adulteries. The kings of the earth committed adultery with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries.” Warning to Escape Babylon's Judgment 4 Then I heard another voice from heaven say: “‘Come out of her, my people,'[b] so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues; 5 for her sins are piled up to heaven, and God has remembered her crimes. 6 Give back to her as she has given; pay her back double for what she has done. Pour her a double portion from her own cup. 7 Give her as much torment and grief as the glory and luxury she gave herself. In her heart she boasts, ‘I sit enthroned as queen. I am not a widow;[c] I will never mourn.' 8 Therefore in one day her plagues will overtake her: death, mourning and famine. She will be consumed by fire, for mighty is the Lord God who judges her

Lamenting turns us to God when sorrow would turn us from God.
Worship Coordinator Kristin Groene urges us to take our raw emotions and struggles to God first, trusting Him as our Wonderful Counselor who hears, guides, and fights for us. She highlights biblical lament, godly accountability, and the wisdom of processing with faithful friends after we've prayed.
Nijay Gupta is back on Shifting Culture to share about his new book with A.J. Swoboda, Slow Theology. Together we talk about what it means to follow Jesus at a different pace - resisting the constant pressure to react, hurry, and perform, and instead cultivating practices that lead to depth and resilience. In this episode, we explore the role of lament, the necessity of community, and how theology is less about abstract answers and more about orienting our whole lives toward God. Nijay offers wisdom for living faithfully in a turbulent age and shows us how slowing down might be a core practice for our spiritual formation today.Nijay Gupta (DPhil, University of Durham) has written several academic books including Paul and the Language of Faith, and Tell Her Story: How Women Led, Taught, and Ministered in the Early Church. He has co-edited The State of New Testament Studies, and The State of Pauline Studies.

In this closing episode of our Repentant Lament series, we explore the final verses of Psalm 51, where David's prayer shifts from personal forgiveness to the restoration of God's people. Sin is never just private—it weakens families, churches, and even nations. But repentance not only cleanses the heart, it rebuilds the walls of community and strengthens God's people for worship that truly delights Him. Together, we'll trace the psalm's flow from guilt to grace, from brokenness to renewal, and from lament to worship, finding its ultimate fulfillment in Christ, the true Temple and Cornerstone.

When Jesus approached Jerusalem for the final time, he wept bitterly over the city's spiritual blindness. His tears weren't for himself but for people who missed the peace he offered because they were consumed with politics, religion, and power. This prophetic lament came true when Jerusalem was destroyed in 70 CE, exactly as Jesus predicted. His example teaches us to feel deeply about brokenness, identify what's missing in our world, and move beyond tears into redemptive action. Like Jesus, we must walk toward pain and injustice to bring healing and peace.

From Lament to Praise (Habakkuk 2:5-2:20)
Jesus didn't just teach, He wept. In Matthew 23:37–39, Jesus laments over Jerusalem—grieving for those who rejected Him, longing to gather them as a hen gathers her chicks. This sermon from Pastor David calls us to share Christ's compassion and recognize that His tears lead to our mission. Jesus' lament shows He is not ignorable—He is the Savior we need.

Miller's Crossing (1990) was chosen by supporter Justin, and it stands as one of the most stylish entries in the Coen Brothers' early catalogue. After the breakout success of Blood Simple and the quirky charm of Raising Arizona, the Coens set their sights on the gangster genre, crafting a film inspired by classic Dashiell Hammett novels such as The Glass Key and Red Harvest. Their vision was to make a thoughtful, atmospheric crime drama that combined sharp, layered dialogue with the kind of morally tangled storytelling that would become their trademark.The journey to get there wasn't exactly smooth. Midway through writing, the brothers hit a creative wall so severe they shelved the script and instead made Barton Fink before returning to finish Miller's Crossing. Filming in New Orleans gave the movie its richly authentic period feel, with Barry Sonnenfeld's moody cinematography and Carter Burwell's haunting score elevating the production. While the film didn't set the box office on fire, its craftsmanship and style have since earned it a devoted following and cemented its reputation as one of the Coens' most accomplished works.If you enjoy the show, we have a Patreon, so become a supporter here.Referral links also help out the show if you were going to sign up:NordVPNNordPassTrailer Guy Plot SummaryIn a city of power, deception, and danger… One man navigates the shadows of loyalty and betrayal.From the visionary Coen Brothers comes Miller's Crossing — a stylish, tension-packed journey through the underworld, where every word is a weapon, every glance a threat, and nothing is as it seems. With danger lurking around every corner, alliances are tested, and the rules of the game are rewritten in blood and cunning.Miller's Crossing - loyalty has a price… and betrayal has consequences.Fun FactsMiller's Crossing (1990) was directed by Joel and Ethan Coen, following their cult hit Raising Arizona (1987).The film is considered one of the greatest gangster movies of the 1990s, heavily inspired by Dashiell Hammett's novels The Glass Key and Red Harvest.During production, the Coen Brothers experienced writer's block and paused to create Barton Fink (1991) before returning to finish Miller's Crossing.The title Miller's Crossing refers to the forested setting where some of the movie's most pivotal scenes take place.Cinematographer Barry Sonnenfeld gave the movie its iconic noir-inspired look, marking his last collaboration with the Coens before moving on to direct The Addams Family.The haunting score by Carter Burwell is infused with Irish folk influences, including themes based on the traditional piece Lament for Limerick.Despite a production budget of around $10–14 million, the movie only grossed about $5 million at the box office.Over the years, Miller's Crossing has been critically reappraised and is now celebrated as one of the Coen Brothers' finest works.The film is often ranked alongside Coen classics such as Fargo (1996) and No Country for Old Men (2007).Today, it's seen as a masterclass in neo-noir storytelling and has influenced a new generation of filmmakers in the gangster genre.thevhsstrikesback@gmail.comhttps://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback
We discuss the third chapter in Job, in which Job curses the day of his birth, longs for the final rest, and laments his suffering. We consider what a life without the Gospel and God's grace looks like.
Discover why real transformation happens when leaders have the courage to journey with people into their sorrow and bring the hope of Christ to the places of deepest pain.Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson discuss this quote from Andrew Root in Ep. 270, Evangelism as Consolation:"What we really need, what people yearn for, is someone who will journey with them into their sorrow and to proclaim and witness to a Jesus Christ who is present in sorrow."THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:Leaders embody the gospel by journeying with people into their pain and sorrow.Churches bring transformation by listening to and addressing the pain of their neighbors.Faithful leadership means grieving alongside others while holding on to hope.Evangelism becomes good news when we accompany others in their sorrow, not just share inspiring visions.Congregations foster trust and transformation by walking with people through loss and change.Send me a text!

From silly phobias to real panic, fear shows up in parenting all the time. Adam, Chelsea, and Cassie talk about crowds, kids going missing for a minute, and the dread of what could happen when we're not there. Then they walk us into Scripture—Isaiah's “fear not,” Jesus lifting Peter out of the waves, the father begging, “help my unbelief,” and a God who literally carries His people. This one's practical, honest, and full of grace for moms and dads who need to breathe and remember: our kids—and our hearts—are in stronger hands.Resources Mentioned:Good News for Parents by Adam GriffinIsaiah 41:10Deuteronomy 1:31Matthew 14:22–33Mark 9:24 – “Help my unbelief.”Luke 15 – The Father's heart.Matthew 6:25–34Psalms of Lament (starter set) – Fear meets faith.Job (opening) Follow Us:Instagram | Facebook | WebsiteEditing and support by The Good Podcast Co.

When evil strikes, we must remember to lament, live, and long. Teacher - Scott Kenworthy
In a world full of division, anger, and grief, how do we respond as followers of Christ? In this episode, we reflect on the tragic death of Charlie Kirk not to dwell on politics, but to examine our own hearts and the sin that dulls our awareness of God's presence. Using Psalm 51:7–12 as our guide, we explore David's model of repentant lament—confessing without excuses, seeking cleansing we cannot achieve on our own, and asking God to renew our hearts and spirits. This episode is a call to turn inward, lay down bitterness, pride, and compromise, and experience the joy, intimacy, and restoration only found in Christ.Please leave a comment or review for this episode to help us share this content with others!

In this compelling episode of "Father and Joe," hosts Father Boniface and Joe Rockey delve into the profound concept of what it truly means to make an offering to God during Mass. Often perceived as just the physical gifts like bread and wine, this episode uncovers the depth of offering our entire lives—including our emotions and experiences—as a symbolic gesture transubstantiated into the body and blood of Christ. Joe shares his transformative realization that the offerings are not limited to tangible items but encompass the entirety of our lives, our struggles, and our joys. Father Boniface elaborates on the notion of negativity and how it is an intrinsic part of human life. Drawing from the Psalms and the example of Our Lady's sorrows, he explains how God not only understands these emotions but provides us with the means to express them through sacred scripture. The conversation navigates through the delicate balance of honesty in our relationship with God, examining how these emotions, though perceived as significant in our lives, may not impact God in the same way. Yet, Father Boniface emphasizes that God, being outside of time, provides a pathway for us to offer everything to Him, making our human experience a worthy offering. Ultimately, listeners are invited to embrace the idea that it's not about the perfection of what we offer but the wholehearted surrender of our entire selves to God. The episode concludes with a poignant reminder that the courage to present everything to God—good, bad, and ugly—is central to nurturing a profound and intimate relationship with the divine. Father Boniface encourages a posture of trust, surrender, and honesty, reflecting on our eternal role as God's children, always welcome to bring our whole selves to the altar. This episode inspires listeners to carry this understanding into their lives, fostering a deeper sense of comfort and courage in their spiritual journey.Tags: Spirituality, Faith, Christian Living, Mass, Eucharist, Spiritual Growth, Offering, Transformation, Faith Journey, Emotional Growth, Religious Understanding, Divine Offering, God and Emotions, Relationship with God, Lament in Faith, Childlike Trust, Human Experience, Spiritual Honesty, Spiritual Direction, Religious Life, Scripture and Emotion, Mass offering, Bread and Wine, Transubstantiation, Vulnerability, Trust in God, Spiritual Challenges, Faith in Struggles, God's Presence, Eucharist Understanding, Mass Experience, Sacramental Life, Honest Prayers, Father Boniface Hicks, Joe Rockey, Communal Worship, God and Pain, Spiritual Dialogue, Faith GuidanceHashtags: #Spirituality, #Faith, #ChristianLiving, #Mass, #Eucharist, #SpiritualGrowth, #Offering, #Transformation, #FaithJourney, #EmotionalGrowth, #ReligiousUnderstanding, #DivineOffering, #GodAndEmotions, #RelationshipWithGod, #LamentInFaith, #ChildlikeTrust, #HumanExperience, #SpiritualHonesty, #SpiritualDirection, #ReligiousLife, #ScriptureAndEmotion, #MassOffering, #BreadAndWine, #Transubstantiation, #Vulnerability, #TrustInGod, #SpiritualChallenges, #FaithInStruggles, #GodsPresence, #EucharistUnderstanding, #MassExperience, #SacramentalLife, #HonestPrayers, #FatherBonifaceHicks, #JoeRockey, #CommunalWorship, #GodAndPain, #SpiritualDialogue, #FaithGuidanceThis line is here to correct the site's formatting error.
How should Christians react to political violence? In this deeply reflective episode, Mike Erre and Tim Stafford tackle hard questions about faith, politics, and the role of the church in society. With a week marked by tragedy, including the assassination of Charlie Kirk and a series of shootings, the hosts explore what a kingdom response looks like in these turbulent times. From condemning all acts of violence equally to affirming the dignity of every human being, they emphasize the need for a cruciformity—a life shaped by the values and teachings of Jesus. They discuss navigating cultural challenges with wisdom, rejecting the polarizing rage economy, and fostering a community rooted in justice, love, and mutual accountability. How can the church rise above partisan responses and embody the upside-down kingdom of God? What does it mean to lament, honor complex legacies, and act with hope amidst despair? This conversation challenges listeners to rethink their approach to cultural issues, faith, and the call to stand as exiles and strangers in today's society.

4/8. Professor Emily Wilson's translation of The Iliad underscores the powerful, ancient tradition of women's lament, prominently featured in the poem's conclusion. Women like Helen, Hecuba, and Andromache are depicted not only weaving but primarily grieving for the dead and for their own bleak, often enslaved futures. Helen, uniquely, weaves the sufferings of the war and offers commentary on the Greeks, while Hecuba embodies both infinite grief and rage, a rare expression for women in Homeric society. 12TH BCE HITTITE BULL
