To honor the 250th anniversary of America, Tyler Cowen plays Rick patriotic music from the United States and around the world in this special listening episode. In addition to his work as an economist, professor, and bestselling author, Tyler Cowen is a longtime music enthusiast with an expansive repertoire in classical and choral music, rock n' roll, and world music. Moving from John Philip Sousa's vision of classic patriotism and Country Joe and the Fish's antiwar satire to the Andrews Sisters, Franz Liszt, Béla Bartók, Antonín Dvořák, and the Sex Pistols, Cowen explores how music can express, question, and reimagine what it means to love one's country.

John 13–17 Jesus announced - and demonstrated - that the Kingdom of God had come. And yet, on the night before his death, Jesus prepared his disciples for a reality they had not expected: the Kingdom had come, but it had not yet come in its fullness. It is a tension we still live in 2000 years later. At bread, we want to live faithfully in the overlap: praying boldly and expecting the supernatural power of the Kingdom to break into the present, while refusing to deny the very real suffering, disappointment and loss of the world we still inhabit. So, how do we live with expectation and disappointment, miracles and unanswered prayers, joy and grief? The heart of Jesus' Farewell Discourse in John “Remain in me.” Correct theology matters, but theology alone cannot hold us. We make our home in Jesus, as he makes his home in us — and from that abiding place come the love, joy, peace and power we need to live as people of the Now and the Not Yet. NB - serendipitously, the Lectio 365 app is working through the Remain in me verses in John 15 this week. Follow along there too! By Hannah Flint
Midday Prayer Opening O Lord, open my lips And my mouth will declare Your praise. Make haste, O God, to deliver me; Make haste to help me, O Lord. Candle Lighting Prayer of Approach (from St. Augustine) Breathe in me, O Holy Spirit, that my thoughts may be holy. Act in me, O Holy Spirit, that my work may be holy. Draw my heart, O Holy Spirit, to love what is holy. Psalm Reading - Psalm 117 - NLT (Pentecost) Praise the Lord, all you nations. Praise him, all you people of the earth. For his unfailing love for us is powerful; the Lord's faithfulness endures forever. Praise the Lord! Scripture Reading - Matthew 7:24-25 Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. Silent Meditation on God's Word As we enter this time of meditation on God's Word, we pause to be still, to breathe slowly, to re-center our scattered senses on the presence of God, and to take a moment of silent prayer to ask the Holy Spirit to speak clearly to us through His Word. -Pause- As I read our text for today, listen for one word or phrase that is being spoken by God to you. Ask yourself: Through which word or phrase is God wanting to speak to me today? Allow that word or phrase to guide your meditation today. Repeat it over and over in your mind. Let it wash over you. Let it fill you. Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. As the Holy Spirit speaks to You today through His Word, take a moment now to pause and repeat that word over and over in your mind as you allow God's Word to wash over you and fill you. -Pause- Now we reflect on the word or phrase that God is highlighting for us today. Ask yourself: What part of my life needs to hear this word from God? The Spirit has highlighted something in this text for you today. What part of you really needs to hear that? Here, I will read the text again, and then we will have a longer time of silence to reflect on what God is highlighting for you today. Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. Take a moment now to pause and consider: What part of your life needs to hear this word from God today? -Pause- Now we respond to God's Word. As yourself, What is my response to God based on what I have encountered in His Word? Because God speaks to us all in different ways, your response can also take on many different forms. Maybe that response is in the form of a prayer. Use this time to thank and praise God. Speak to and listen to Him. Ask Him for something. Allow your prayer to flow from your heart freely and fully. Or maybe God is reminding you of something. Maybe He's reminding you of your identity in Him. Or of His promises. Or of His presence in your life. And so I encourage you to sit in that reminder. Or is God inviting you to respond in some physical way to the word that you have heard? Maybe it's an encouragement to keep doing what you're doing. Maybe it's an encouragement to stop doing what you're doing. Maybe it's an encouragement to start doing something new. We hear God's Word and respond to it. Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. Take a moment now to pause and consider: What is your response to God based on what you have encountered in His Word? -Pause- And now we rest in God's Word. We have read God's Word. We have reflected on it. You have responded to it. Now we return to a place of rest. Remember that this rest is not based on your works. It is not based on your response to God's Word. But today and every day, we can rest in God's promises and His presence here with us today. Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. Take a moment now to rest in God's promises and His presence here with us today. -Pause- Lord's Prayer Our Father who art in heaven: hallowed be Thy name: Thy kingdom come: Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven: Give us this day our daily bread: and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us: and lead us not into temptation: but deliver us from evil: For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen. Benediction Eternal Creator of light, Yours is the morning and Yours is the evening. Draw us to Yourself so there will be no darkness within us. Amen. Let us go in peace. Thanks be to God. *Liturgy was compiled using resources from Lectio 365 and Ruth Haley Barton's "Invitation to Retreat."

Inner compassion is the foundation for how you treat yourself and everyone else. It’s how your energy enters a room and is felt before you say a word. In this podcast episode, Meg Reilly talks about extending the same kindness to yourself that you’d offer a good friend. Building Inner Compassion The podcast interview started even though I forgot hit record. When we finished, my heart sank as I realized that mistake meant there was no recording. We had to start over. My first reaction was to feel embarrassed and unprofessional. What a dumb thing to do. With sadness in my voice, I told Meg what happened. We laughed a bit uncomfortably. Then I asked if she had time to do the interview again. She did – phew and on we went. How interesting that our conversation was about compassion and that the best place to start is with yourself. Meg asked something that made me stop and think. If a good friend made that same mistake, would I give them a hard time about it or be kind and supportive? Most people do not treat themselves as well as they treat dear friends. Treat Yourself Like You’d Treat Your Best Friend Meg’s coaching and writing focus on helping people live with more inner compassion. She has a simple way to check for it. When you make a mistake, stop and ask yourself what you’d say to a friend who did that same thing. You wouldn’t call her names or rehash the mistake for the next several hour, right? No, you’d say, “It’s okay. What should we do now?” That’s the kindness you owe yourself too. Meg admits this doesn’t always happen automatically. It takes practice. Building inner compassion is a lot like building muscle at the gym because it requires regular practice. Compassion Can Be Just Showing Up Not every kind of compassion involves fixing something. Meg spent time working in hospice care, simply sitting with patients who were unconscious or close to death. There was no problem to solve and nothing to say. She offered her calm presence and sometimes held a hand. This kind of compassion doesn’t look like much when viewed from the outside, but it is felt. People who’ve had near-death experiences describe being aware of who was in the room with them. Being there IS the act of compassion. Your Energy Enters the Room Before You Do Meg described what happens when she walks into a room full of strangers. She can immediately sense who’s happy and who’s miserable even if no words are exchanged or no physical contact is made because the energy is there. This is where the idea of self-compassion can often be underestimated. When you’re kind to yourself, that energy ripples out into how you treat everyone around you. And it continues rippling from there, like that proverbial pebble dropped in a pond. I talked about my friend MarBeth Dunn whose message is that world peace starts with inner peace. We also talked about how each of us is a single drop in the ocean and the entire ocean at the very same time. That always amazes me and now I see the connection to inner compassion from this perspective. Small Actions Create Big Ripples When our conversation turned to big global problems like climate change, it's easy to feel like nothing you do personally can make a difference. Meg brought up the phrase, “Think globally, act locally.” The truth is that skipping paper towels, driving electric or hybrid cars, and recycling are small choices that actually can add up and make an impact. I shared a story you may have heard before about working with two friends using an energy clearing practice to help heal the oceans. This seemed rather grandiose to me, but I went along with it and did my part for the 90 minutes we worked together. Partway through, I got an intuitive message from a male figure resembling Poseidon (maybe it was the trident he was holding LOL), thanking us for our efforts. He let me know that even three people can really make a difference. My takeaway was that consistent, intentional energy matters, even if you're a small group or just one person. Choose Your Words Wisely Your words and actions leave a bigger impact than you might think. Unkind comments tend to stick with you far longer and more vividly than kind words ever do. Meg says this is exactly why it’s worth slowing down with your language. Since you don't know how your words will land and be remembered, she recommends that you be more conscious about what you say. True for words about yourself as well, which is why more inner compassion is needed. Inside The Echoes Deck Then, I asked Meg about her new oracle cards called the Echoes Deck. Meg’s original 48-card oracle tool was created for personal inquiry, insight, and self-guidance. Most oracle decks feature a theme like angels, animal guides, or essential oils. Meg’s deck has four realms: the external, the internal, the eternal (which covers body, mind, and spirit). But there's a fourth realm called Echoes, that represents the energy you put out into the world and what comes back to you (just like an echo). Each realm holds twelve cards and features a hand-drawn mandala. You might notice patterns in the layout such as repeating numbers, recurring imagery, or a particular realm that shows up repetitively. This is the same way a tarot reader might look at the suits and major arcana. Why Compassionate Energy Spirals Upward compassionate energy When you recognize your own humanity, which means your mistakes, hard-won lessons, and moments of sorrow, that's what makes it possible to extend real compassion to someone else. Once you offer it outward, people start to experience you as a genuinely compassionate person. That perception reinforces the whole cycle and causes the energy to spiral upward. In contrast, you can walk into a room and feel whose energy is spiraling down just as easily as you can feel who’s happy. Choosing to meet that with compassion, rather than getting pulled down along with it, takes practice, but it is learnable. Set Your Radar to See Good in the World We discussed how so many spiritually minded people are saying how everything is “crumbling”. But language shapes energy too and those words can lower your vibration and the energy around you. On the other hand, if you reframe this as “things are shifting,” that keeps you oriented toward what’s possible rather than on what’s collapsing. I shared a mantra I borrowed from a friend at the start of 2025: “I am open to the possibility of positive outcomes.” This idea has helped me through so many downward news cycles! What I find helps is to set my internal radar to notice the positive. And that helped me see the good things in my life and the world. The Choice That’s Always Available Uncertainty and worry can’t be eliminated from being human. However, in any given moment, you can choose compassion. Offer a kinder response, toward yourself and others around you. These small, conscious shifts are what end up shaping how happy you actually are, and that positivity ripples out into the world around you. It really starts that simply with one compassionate choice at a time. Where Does the Compassion Begin? Inner compassion is a practice, not a personality trait. Treat yourself the way you’d treat your best friend on her worst day. Presence alone counts as compassion, even when there’s nothing to fix or say. Your energy is felt by others before you say a word, so how you treat yourself shapes who you appear to be to everyone else. Small, consistent actions, energetic or practical, genuinely add up, even when facing enormous problems. Words leave an impact whether you intend them to or not, so choose them with that in mind. Reframe words like “crumbling” to something more positive like “shifting.” This small change in language repositions what you notice and experience. BIO- Meg Reilly Meg Reilly counsels people to live with compassion for themselves and for others. She leads a weekly meditative, contemplative practice called Lectio 360. She’s also the creator of a new set of oracle cards called, The Echoes Deck. Meg writes a weekly post on compassion available on her social media and in her email newsletter. She served for 20 years as a wellness counselor to campers, counselors and admin staff at Camp AmeriKids, a week-long camp for kids with sickle cell anemia and other medical challenges. She has a Masters in Counseling and is a Certified Hypnotist. Website & Social Media Website: https://MegReilly360.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063472415054# LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/meg-reilly-375254140/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/megreilly360/ FAQs What is self-compassion, according to Meg Reilly? Meg defines self-compassion as treating yourself the way you’d treat a close friend who made the same mistake. Offer grace and curiosity about what to do next, rather than criticism. She frames it as a daily practice, not a fixed trait, comparing it to strengthening a muscle at the gym. What is The Echoes Deck? Meg Reilly created The Echoes Deck, a 48-card oracle deck organized into four suits or realms including the external, internal, eternal, and Echoes. Every realm has 12 cards with hand-drawn mandalas cards, designed for personal insight and guidance. How does self-compassion affect the people around us? Meg describes energy as contagious. The kindness or harshness you direct at yourself shapes the energy you bring into a room. Other people sense and respond to this. Practicing self-compassion ripples outward into how you treat everyone else. Can small individual actions really make a difference against big problems like climate change? Yes, according to Meg. She points to the familiar phrase, “Think globally, act locally,” meaning that recycling, driving electric, buying in bulk are proof that consistent small actions add up, even when a problem feels too large for one person to affect. Why does Meg say compassion “spirals upward”? Once you extend compassion outward, others begin to perceive and treat you as a compassionate person, which reinforces the pattern and strengthens it over time. This creates an upward spiral of energy, lifting the vibration for yourself and everyone around you.

Retreating is a core practice for Christian mental health, especially when anxiety, depression, burnout, or emotional numbness start running the show. We're not interested in pretending faith means you're always fine. We want honesty, rest, and real connection with Jesus right in the middle of the mess.We lay out a simple framework for spiritual retreat that actually matches real life: forced, frustrated, and fun. We walk through Elijah's collapse under the broom tree and what God does first (sleep, food, water, time), plus Job's painful invitation to grieve without rushing to explain it. If you're in a forced retreat season, we offer practical guidance for slowing down, paying attention to your inner world, and letting God meet you there without shame.Then we move into the frustrated retreat, using Jacob's all-night wilderness wrestle as a picture of how anger, fear, and unmet hopes can become a holy turning point. Finally, we reclaim fun retreat as biblical, healing, and good for your nervous system, whether that's a beach day, art, hiking, laughter, or a phone-free reset. If a full getaway isn't possible, we share micro retreat options and resources like Lectio 365, the Bible app, and Bible Project to help you build a sustainable rhythm.If this helps you, subscribe, share it with a friend who's running on empty, and leave a review so more people can find honest conversations about faith and mental well-being. What kind of retreat do you need right now?If Sunburnt Souls has helped or blessed you in any way, can I ask a small favour? Would you consider telling someone about the podcast, reposting an episode link, or bringing it up over dinner with a mate sometime? Word of mouth is how this podcast spreads. We don't have the budget for advertising, so every share genuinely helps more people discover the conversations we're having around faith and mental health.

Today's episode of the 2 Minute Disciple Christian devotional podcast is a short, contemplative Christian meditation on Matthew 12:1–8. We slow down with Jesus, practice daily scripture meditation, and reflect on His words, “I want you to show mercy, not offer sacrifices.”
In this contemplative practice, "Lectio of Belonging: Resting in the Voice of Love," John Farrelly guides us in a meditation on Psalm 100:3. John Farrelly has been married to Mary for 40 years and is a dad and grandad. He is a Special Needs Assistant working with 5th- and 6th-grade children with autism. He is a spiritual director and coordinator of the Guided Prayer Centre at Knock Shrine in Ireland.

He contributes regularly to Contemplative Outreach's Word of the Week reflections and is just now birthing a new Substack called Living from The Quiet Heart.
Teaching from February 8, 2026 by Ben Pitzen
Allow this passage from The Message to engage your whole self, so Scripture becomes an encounter rather than a concept. You'll hear “This is my body” and “This is my blood” as a present-tense invitation to participate, remember, and partake. The practice moves from attentive listening to personal response, offering time for a simple conversation with Jesus.For more on the theme Partake in the Blessings, see page 96 of With God in Every Breath by Whitney R.

In this episode, we reflect on the importance of giving thanks to the Lord for all He has done in both the beautiful and difficult moments of life. We talk about how practicing gratitude can change our perspective of reality and helps us recognize where God has been present even in moments we do not understand. We also name the fears that can sometimes keep us from giving thanks and discuss how gratitude becomes an act of surrender that opens us to God's steady, faithful presence. As a gift to you, we end today's episode by doing Lectio Divina with Psalm 34 and invite you into a time of prayer with us.

How did the Lord accompany me this year? What do I need to let go of as we transition into a new liturgical year? What parts of my life am I afraid to give thanks for? Discussion Questions: What has the Lord taught you in this season? What was surprising this past year? What challenges and joys did you experience this year? Where are you resistant to give thanks? Quote to Ponder: "Gratitude is at the center of a life of faith. It sounds too simple to be true, but isn't that the sign of all deep truth: so simple we're tempted to dismiss it, and so hard, it is exactly what God uses to change our hard lives." (Ann Voskamp) Scripture for Lectio: "I will bless the Lord at all times; his praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul makes its boast in the Lord; let the humble hear and be glad. O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together. I sought the Lord, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears. Look to him, and be radiant; so your faces shall never be ashamed. This poor soul cried, and was heard by the Lord, and was saved from every trouble. The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them. O taste and see that the Lord is good; happy are those who take refuge in him."
