This lecture focuses on 2 Samuel 9 and the story of David's kindness to Mephibosheth. David asks whether anyone from Saul's family is still alive so that he can show kindness for Jonathan's sake. Ziba, Saul's servant, tells him about Jonathan's son Mephibosheth, who is crippled in both feet and living in Lodabar.Mephibosheth is brought before David and expects danger, but David tells him not to be afraid. He restores Saul's land to him and invites him to eat regularly at the king's table. The chapter emphasizes that Mephibosheth receives this honor not because he earned it, but because of David's promise to Jonathan.The lecture compares this story to the plot of Les Miserables, especially the bishop's grace toward Jean Valjean. It presents David's action as a picture of shocking mercy and as a larger pattern of God's kindness toward people who are not in a position to claim it.The sermon then connects the story to broader biblical teaching about grace. It says that people may try to earn grace through religious effort, or treat it as entitlement and grow attached to the gifts more than to God himself. Mephibosheth's later appearances in 2 Samuel are used to show different responses to grace, including gratitude, contentment, and dependence.The lecture ends by stressing that God seeks people out, desires intimate relationship, and invites them to his table. David's example is presented as reflecting God's own character: showing undeserved kindness, restoring, and calling people to live in grateful response.
In this episode of Personally Speaking, Msgr. Jim Lisante is joined by actor and singer Aaron Lazar. Aaron's film and television credits include, “The Wolf of Wall Street”, and “J.Edgar”, and recent television appearances include CBS' “The Equalizer”, and “Yellowstone”. Aaron has starred on Broadway 11 times from his debut in “The Phantom of the Opera” to “A Little Night Music”, “The Light in the Piazza” and the first revival of “Les Miserables”. Since January of 2022, Aaron has been in the fight of his life against ALS, a neurological disease also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease, that progressively steals a person's ability to walk, speak, eat, use their hands and breath on their own. Aaron made a decision “not to live afraid” and instead has focused on healing himself emotionally, spiritually and also physically. He talks about his life, his career, fatherhood, his faith, and living with ALS.Support the show

This summer, we explore themes from popular films alongside Scripture, uncovering how God's truth speaks through the stories we love. From adventure and sacrifice to redemption and hope, each week reminds us that God is present in every part of our story—inviting us into something greater. This week, we look at a movie that became popular, first, on the theatrical stage - Les Miserables. Les Miz (as it is commonly refered) is first and foremast a parable. A story that is not true or historical, but invites the listener or watcher into it in such a way that the audience wishes it were true because it is relatable. It also leads the audience to take a step of action. Jesus does the same with his parables that he tells. Pastor Karla conveys to us how God reaches us at your worst so He can lift us into our best.

There is a temptation in every generation to believe that the spiritual life consists primarily in learning new methods, acquiring hidden knowledge, or discovering techniques that promise quick access to God. St. Isaac the Syrian gently dismantles this illusion. When he speaks of the deeper forms of prayer, he deliberately refuses to satisfy our curiosity. It is a remarkable act of humility. He knows that the mysteries of prayer cannot be communicated as information because they are received only as a gift. They belong not to those who seek extraordinary experiences but to those who have quietly consented to be transformed through long obedience. This restraint reveals something profoundly important. The deepest prayer is never mastered. It is given. One does not arrive there through spiritual cleverness but by allowing grace to accomplish its hidden work over time. “Sit in your cell,” the ancient saying declares, “and your cell will teach you everything.” The cell becomes the place where the restless search for novelty dies, where the heart gradually ceases to seek explanations and begins instead to seek only Christ Himself. For Isaac, stillness is therefore not an escape from the world but the creation of an interior space where the face of Christ can finally be seen without distortion. This is why he speaks so forcefully about abstention from many concerns. The problem is not simply that busyness consumes our time. Far more dangerously, it fragments our attention. It scatters the heart among a thousand anxieties until it loses the capacity to remain before the Lord with loving simplicity. How striking that Isaac does not first speak about outward activity but about the inability to remain “directly before the face of God.” The Christian life begins here. Before there is ministry, teaching, writing, service, or even ascetic labor, there is the gaze of love. The Father turns His face toward us in His Son, and little by little we learn to return that gaze. Prayer is not first our speaking to God but our remaining before Him long enough for His presence to heal what has been wounded within us. This changes the whole character of spiritual struggle. We often imagine that holiness is achieved by greater effort, tighter control, or stricter discipline. Certainly there is ascetic labor, and Isaac never minimizes it. Yet its purpose is not self-perfection. It is to remove whatever prevents us from remaining peacefully before Christ. The battle is not ultimately against activity itself but against everything that steals our attention from the One who alone can heal the heart. Only in such stillness do we begin to notice the subtle movements of the soul. Isaac says that the monk learns to distinguish “what enters into and what comes out” of him. Here we discover the extraordinary psychological and spiritual depth of the desert tradition. Before modern psychology attempted to map the interior world, the Desert Fathers had already entered its hidden landscape. They understood that thoughts, desires, fears, fantasies, and memories continually seek entrance into the heart. Unless one lives before the face of Christ, these movements remain confused and unexamined. But in the light of His countenance they become discernible. His gaze exposes nothing in order to condemn; it reveals everything in order to heal. This is why the entire ascetical life must remain Christ-centered. Stillness divorced from Christ easily becomes isolation. Silence without Christ becomes emptiness. Solitude without Christ can become merely another form of self-absorption. But when every moment of silence is filled with the awareness of His presence, stillness becomes communion. The heart is no longer occupied with itself but quietly captivated by the beauty of the Lord. Here, I believe, we begin to understand what I have called throughout these writings desire and wonder. As the heart becomes less driven by endless concerns, it does not become emotionally barren. Quite the opposite. It awakens. Desire is purified because it is no longer dispersed among countless lesser loves but gathered into a single longing for Christ. Wonder returns because His presence is never exhausted. Every moment before Him becomes fresh. Every prayer becomes an invitation into a mystery that can never be possessed, only received. Perhaps this is the hidden fruit of Isaac's refusal to explain the higher forms of prayer. He wishes to protect us from seeking experiences rather than seeking Christ. For if we truly stand before His face day after day, if we patiently guard the heart, if we willingly relinquish the tyranny of unnecessary concerns, then prayer itself will teach us. Not because we have become experts, but because Love Himself has become our teacher. In the end, the goal is beautifully simple. To become men and women whose hearts are no longer scattered but wholly gathered before the Face that has always been turned toward us. And in that Face we discover that every true desire finds its fulfillment, every fear loses its power, and wonder becomes the atmosphere in which the soul learns to live. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:04:23 Fr.

When true simplicity is gained, To bow and to bend we shan't be ashamed, To turn, turn will be our delight, Till by turning, turning we come 'round right. 00:58:25 Bob Čihák, AZ: Re: story of Martha and Mary taking the “better path”: Christ doesn't specify what that better path might be. Many, including St. Augustine, say that it's the path of contemplation. I think it could be that “the better path” is the path for that person fulfilling the will of God, in that place, at that time. We all have different immediate paths to take, at different times. Obviously, Martha earned Christ's gentle rebuke which to me suggests that she should consider that her role at that time and place might be providing hospitality. 01:06:19 Nancy Pagan: Why if we can learn by ourselves some desert fathers insist in having a staret?I I really believe we can but I should not trust myself that way? 01:06:27 Nancy Pagan: Sorry 01:07:22 Lee Graham: “Without distractions the devil has no means of entering the soul” the footnote #1 01:13:29 Art: I gain a lot of peace of heart and mind from the Benedictine motto “to work is to pray”. I've also seen “Prayer is my work”. Work is my prayer”. It helps me accept whatever it is I need to do 01:13:42 David Swiderski: In loving one another's God is us is made flesh. Simple not complicates but I have this written on my bedroom door because I forget and it has guided me for years. I rise and remember to be simple and the goal clear in the day. I think less words help the most as my grandfather left with me as a high school education tut taught me more than Aquinas or any spiritual father. As my mother said love few and profoundly. As I age I find all the answers where at my hands but I got lost at some times in my life. 01:13:53 James Hickman: Father, is there any distinction between unadulterated entertainment vs perhaps a cultural experience by watching a series or movie not too different from sitting down to read a novel or go to a play performed live? It might be an opportunity for leisure. I think of PBS Masterpiece where I can watch a high quality production of Les Miserables or The Count of Monte Cristo and ponder mysteries of forgiveness or the vices in my life. Certainly I'm not saying this is of greater value than spending two hours in stillness. I'm maybe admitting my weakness here, but I do wonder: is there a place for this in my life? Are there any good distractions? In moderation? 01:17:58 David Swiderski: Amen seeking beauty and what is good shapes our lives and our goals. 01:18:47 James Hickman: I breathe a sigh of relief

We're back after our May Miniseries and it's Tonys week! Rather than a musical, we're talking about a movie that disappointed in part because it wasn't a big screen version of the Broadway smash… In 1998, director Bille August brought a condensed version of Victor Hugo's Les Miserables to the screen.

This Special Collections episode is called Broadway - The Performers. Each episode of Special Collections focuses on a particular common thread that ties together some of my guests. In this episode, that common thread is Broadway. Each of the guests featured here is an accomplished and acclaimed performer in one or more Broadway productions. Broadway is one of the great storytelling traditions in the world — where music, lyrics, story, choreography, and performance come together to create powerful emotional experiences. What connects each of the artists in this collection is not only their Broadway experience, but their love of performing — and their deep connection to the Broadway tradition. Here are the six performers who are profiled in this episode: ⸻ Shoshana Bean - two-time Tony Award–nominated actress. “Hell's Kitchen”, “Mr. Saturday Night”, “Wicked”, “Waitress”, “Hairspray”. Melissa Errico - Tony Award nominee whose Broadway credits include “My Fair Lady” and “Les Miserables”. Sam Harris - Cy Coleman's “The Life”, Tommy Tune's “Grease”, “The Producers”, “Jesus Christ Superstar”. Ann Hampton Callaway - “Swing”. BroadwayWorld's “Celebrity of the Year”. Here's Ann singing “Pick Yourself Up,” another classic song from Swing Time. Darius de Haas - “Kiss Of The Spider Woman”, “Rent”, “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel”. Lucie Arnaz - “They're Playing Our Song”, “The Jazz Singer”. Follow Your Dream. —-------- Stay tuned for another Special Collections episode soon.

Patti LuPone – three-time Tony and two-time Grammy Award winner – has long reigned as one of Broadway's most formidable leading ladies. In this edition of In The Studio, we join her in New York for a highly anticipated solo concert at Carnegie Hall. Best known for defining roles in Evita, Les Miserables, Gypsy, and Sunset Boulevard, LuPone has also sustained a decades-long parallel life on the concert stage – a career she says began simply to “offset unemployment” between Broadway runs. What started as late-night cabaret after Evita evolved into meticulously structured touring shows, each built around narrative, character and the power of lyrics. Her current programme, Matters of the Heart, weaves a tapestry of love stories – from romance and heartbreak to family and devotion – revealing her instinct to treat every song as theatre. Patti describes her routine on the day of the concert: the soundcheck, the balancing of quartet and voice in a hall famed for its natural acoustics, and the quiet rituals that precede performance. LuPone reflects on nerves, storytelling and the audacity of standing alone before 2,800 expectant faces. Alongside her collaborators, including musical director Joseph Thalken, she reveals the discipline and trust behind the scenes. This is a portrait of craft at the highest level – the artist, the venue and the alchemy of live performance.Presenter and producer: Victoria Ferran Executive producer: Susan Marling A Just Radio production for BBC World ServiceImage: Patti LuPone (Credit: Emilio Madrid)

Best of 2025 1: Big Screen, Big Crucibles: Les MiserablesYou've heard us talk a lot over the years at Beyond the Crucible about the power of forgiveness — and that's one of the core themes of our discussion this week of LES MISERABLES, the fourth film in our summer series BIG SCREEN, BIG CRUCIBLES.Everyone in the movie experiences a crucible, but those who receive and then extend mercy and forgiveness to others are the ones who find lives of significance. Those too rigid to see the best in others, or in themselves — like the prison guard and policeman Javert -- wind up — as one of the American translations of the film's title puts it — The Miserable Ones.To explore Beyond the Crucible resources, including our free Trials-to-Triumphs Self-Assessment, visit beyondthecrucible.com.Enjoy the show?
