In our big Lenten episode, we explore Jesus's three temptations in the desert and all things Sawma Rama (the Great Fast). We break down Matthew's account of Jesus tempted by Satan and reflect on how Jesus overcomes each temptation through love—and how we can apply the same strength during Lent through fasting, prayer, and almsgiving to grow in love of God, love of neighbor, and proper love of self. In this Lent special, we cover: - The deeper meaning of Jesus entering the wilderness to be tempted - The unforgettable Grand Inquisitor scene from Dostoevsky's "The Brothers Karamazov" - Why Jesus had to face real temptation as a man? - Pope Leo's practical Lenten message - We revisit the topic of mixed marriages in the Chaldean and Assyrian diaspora: balancing cultural preservation, language, heritage, and community concerns with the Church's priority on salvation of souls and sacramental validity. - And we BLIND RANK our favorite Lenten foods!

Pastor David Larmourfalse00:27:53614Fear-less This Christmas Part 4: Love Wins Over Fearfull

It's been a wild week in American politics.The Supreme Court declined to overturn marriage equality, leaving Kim Davis (the Kentucky clerk who refused to issue marriage licenses to gay couples) stuck with a $360,000 bill and zero sympathy. Meanwhile, after 43 days of chaos, the government shutdown is finally ending, but Democrats caved without securing protections for the 20+ million Americans about to lose their health insurance subsidies. And just when you thought it couldn't get messier, new Epstein emails dropped, directly contradicting Trump's claims about his relationship with the convicted sex trafficker.Robinbreaks down all three stories: Why Kim Davis is still the worst person from 2015, what the new Epstein emails reveal about Trump's knowledge of "the girls," and how Chuck Schumer managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory on healthcare.It's a mixed bag of news: one win, several losses, and a whole lot of political dysfunction.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-a-true-crime-podcast--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.

Love Wins ( HOT !!! ) by Bill Bennett

Help Dates & Mates win a Signal Award! Vote by October 9th at damonahoffman.com/award Loving someone who can't love you back the same way is one of the most tender, complicated situations in relationships. Sometimes the safest relationship in your life becomes the hardest one to navigate, and the person who knows you best is also the one you want most. This week, a listener shares: "I'm in love with my best friend. I'm a queer woman in my thirties and she's straight in her mid to late twenties. We've gotten progressively closer to the point where people think we are dating. My therapist told me my friend is the safest relationship that I have in my life. So sometimes I do wonder if what I'm perceiving as romantic love is just a really healthy friendship. Do I tell my best friend I'm in love with her? If I don't, how do I protect my heart and continue to have this incredible friendship that I never want to give up?" In this episode, Damona explores what happens when deep friendship intersects with romantic feelings. You'll hear about the difference between emotional safety and romantic compatibility, why fantasy relationships feel easier than real ones, and how to navigate truth-telling without causing collateral damage to the relationship that matters most. What You'll Hear In This Episode: Why feeling safe with someone doesn't automatically make them your romantic match How staying in the fantasy can keep you emotionally unavailable to real possibilities The critical questions to ask yourself before revealing feelings to a friend What it costs you to stay silent when romantic feelings are involved Why creating distance might be the most clarifying move you can make right now How to baby step into gauging openness without risking everything at once What it means to proceed with compassion for both yourself and your friend Resources & Links: Got a relationship question?

This week, a listener shares: "I'm lonely in my own marriage. We've been together 12 years and we're like this well-oiled machine. Kids get to practice, bills are paid, house doesn't fall apart, but that's it. We don't actually talk anymore, just coordinate. Last week I realized we hadn't had a real conversation in probably two months. When I brought it up, he was like, 'what's wrong? We're good. We don't fight.' But I'm dying here. I miss my husband." In this episode, Damona explores what happens when couples perfect the art of co-managing but lose the skills of co-connecting. You'll hear why functional doesn't have to mean emotionally empty, and how to bridge the gap when one person doesn't even see the problem. What You'll Hear In This Episode: Why becoming a "well-oiled machine" can actually work against your relationship How to practice intimacy skills the same way you schedule soccer practice The difference between absence of conflict and presence of connection Why two months without real conversation signals an emotional drought How to get from logistics to feelings without blindsiding your partner What "relationship amnesia" looks like and how to recover those lost skills Why missing someone who's sitting right next to you hits so differently Resources & Links: Got a relationship question?

Get early access to all of the 2025 RENEW Gathering Breakout Tracks: https://reallifetheologypodcast.supercast.com/  Visit RENEW.org for great resources on Disciple Making and Theology.  Today's episode will help us understand the delicate balance between grace and truth in addressing the challenges of Progressive Christianity, through the lens of personal transformation and effective discipleship. This episode, titled "Dangers of Progressive Christianity," features a workshop led by Daniel McCoy, Editorial Director of renew.org, and his guest Dave Stovall, a recording artist, worship leader, and author of "Losing My Faith in Progressive Christianity." The workshop aims to address the challenges and perils associated with Progressive Christianity through Dave's personal journey. Daniel introduces Dave, thanking the audience for attending and sets the tone with a prayer, emphasizing empathy and wisdom in addressing the topic. Dave begins by sharing his background in a Southern Baptist church in Alabama, where he experienced teaching focused rigidly on black-and-white issues, leading him to question the interpretation of various scriptures. Dave describes his college years as a period of deep spiritual struggle, where he felt disconnected from God and faced criticism when he expressed doubts. His journey into Progressive Christianity began as he sought guidance from authors and bloggers, whose alternative theological perspectives resonated with him. This shift culminated in his adoption of progressive and universalist beliefs, particularly influenced by Rob Bell's "Love Wins." Despite initially feeling liberated and guilt-free under these new beliefs, Dave encountered a turning point when he became a father and questioned what faith he should instill in his children. This led him to a pivotal moment of sincere prayer, asking God to reveal the truth, regardless of where it led him. Subsequently, Dave met Bobby Harrington from Harpeth Christian Church, who played a crucial role in guiding him back to a more traditional understanding of Christianity. Bobby's approach involved patient mentorship, emphasizing the importance of understanding the original intent of scriptures, historical context, and guiding Dave through a process of rebuilding his faith within a supportive community. Throughout the workshop, Dave shares insights on the seductive appeal of Progressive Christianity, especially its emphasis on compassion and empathy, and the potential it holds for leading individuals away from foundational Christian beliefs. He highlights the importance of balancing grace and truth, suggesting that this balance is essential for genuine love and effective ministry. Daniel supplements the discussion by addressing how to define Progressive Christianity and the distinctions between essentials of faith, important beliefs, and personal preferences. He stresses the necessity of theological alignment within church leadership and the dangers of a church culture that leans too heavily on grace without truth. The workshop closes with practical advice for church leaders on fostering an environment where questions and doubts can be addressed openly without fear of judgment. The speakers emphasize the crucial role of discipleship and community in preventing young people from drifting into Progressive Christianity. In conclusion, the episode provides a comprehensive exploration of Dave Stovall's personal transformation from a Progressive Christian back to traditional faith, underscoring the importance of maintaining theological integrity while practicing compassion. The discussion is enriched by reflections on the relationship between empathy, truth, and discipleship within the church. It serves as both a cautionary tale and a guide for those navigating similar spiritual challenges.

Join us as we continue to look at hell, the afterlife, and Christian Universalism. Our culture loves the idea of no hell and no punishments. From John Lennon's hit song, "Imagine," to Pastor Rob Bell's book, "Love Wins," the seductive, age-old heresy of Christian Universalism has lured the American church in. Christian Universalism's main teaching is through Jesus Christ, salvation will eventually be realized for everyone, not just for a chosen group or believers in this life. For some, hell will be what it takes to accept Jesus. After enough suffering in hell's fires, everyone will eventually give in and believe in Jesus, joining the rest of believers in heaven eternally. This version and idea of hell is heretical and dangerous. Join us in this series as we present a defense of the biblical hell that is grounded deeply in sacred Scripture.

Regardless of one's definition, hell is a place that no one would want to end up. There is nothing more horrifying or tormenting, than realizing you are slated for hell. In recent years, the idea of God sending people to hell where they suffer conscience pain and torment forever has been challenged. Rob Bell wrote his influential book, “Love Wins” where he questions whether a loving God would do this. This has highly impacted the Church and has given credibility to Christian Universalism, the idea that all human beings will ultimately be saved and brought into a right relationship with God. Its main teaching is through Jesus Christ, salvation will eventually be realized for everyone, not just for a chosen group or believers in this life. The question for us is, is this Scriptural? Join us as we start this new series on hell and the afterlife.

Last week got away from me, and my energy level was too low to record anything substantial. So, my future prediction comes true this week with the need for a retro show to fill in the blank. This love note involves a lot of manipulation. There are two main characters: the King of Cups and the King of Wands. It looks like the King of Wands wins. However, in the end, the tarot says this will lead you to a very favorable outcome in love. If you feel lost in the river, just follow the duck; they are experienced navigators.

In this raw and soul-stirring episode of The Healing Version, host Deborah creates space for the truth so many LGBTQ+ people carry in silence: the pain, courage, and complexity of coming out—especially to family. Coming out is often portrayed as a celebration, but for many, it's met with silence, shame, or outright rejection. In this episode, Deborah unpacks the emotional weight of telling the truth about who you are, what it costs when that truth isn't received with love, and how to begin healing when home no longer feels safe. With powerful reflections and real listener stories, Deborah reminds us that coming out isn't just about sexuality—it's about coming back to yourself. You'll hear affirmations for anyone who's ever had to hide, encouragement for those still finding their voice, and a message for families learning to love better. Because healing starts with truth. And on The Healing Version, we honor every version of who you are.

In this Unitarian Universalist Pride Sunday sermon, Rev. T. J. Fitzgerald weaves together the story of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, queer theology, and the lived realities of LGBTQ+ people. From Miles Morales' transformation into Spider-Man to the words of Audre Lorde and James Baldwin, Rev. Fitzgerald explores how heroism, guilt, and survival are central to both superhero stories and queer existence. Drawing parallels between the multiverse of Spider-People and the diverse beauty of queer identity, this message boldly proclaims: queer love is powerful, sacred, and it wins.

For this exercise, let's treat it phonetically as 'V' or 'F' sound when needed, or directly find a word. Given the context, let's just make sure the words fit the number.)N (2) S (0) = 20 -> NoSe = NoseLet's simplify the Major System application here for a more direct, vivid P.A.O. that aligns with the affirmation:Person: Lady Valentine (representing love and warmth)Action: Waving Iridescent Nimbus (a radiant, flowing, protective cloud)Object: Silver Sword (cutting through negativity)Imagine Lady Valentine (P), bathed in a soft, luminous green glow, standing at the entrance of your magnificent Heart Palace. She is gracefully waving an iridescent nimbus (A) that billows outward, gently pushing away any lingering shadows of stress. In her other hand, she wields a shimmering silver sword (O), which, with each gentle pass, cuts through any stress like a hot knife through butter, leaving only smooth, serene space.As she moves, your heart feels increasingly open, a vibrant energy bubbles up, and that feeling begins to expand outward from your chest. A profound warmth spreads, ushering in an inner peace that nourishes every cell of your being, leaving you utterly serene.Morning Activation: First thing in the morning, or before a potentially stressful event, close your eyes (or soften your gaze).Affirmation & Visualization: Slowly repeat: "I activate my Heart Palace, flowing with love, melting all stress."Engage the Mnemonic & P.A.O.: Instantly bring to mind Lady Valentine at your Heart Palace, waving her iridescent nimbus, and cutting through stress with her silver sword.Feel the Flow (The "LOVE WINS" Modes): As you visualize, actively engage your senses and emotions:Breathe into it: Continue to breathe deeply and smoothly, allowing the sensations and imagery to deepen the experience.This active, multi-sensory engagement, fueled by your P.A.O. and mnemonic, trains your brain to rapidly access this coherent state, turning an affirmation into an embodied experience.Here are the top-tier options for this specific deep dive, Grandpa Bill:#HeartPalace,#DailyAffirmation,#MemoryEngines,#MagneticMemoryMethod,#GrandpaBillPodcast.#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,#HeartBrainCoherence,#StressRelease,#InnerPeace,#VividImagery,#PAOMnemonic,#MajorSystem,#MindBodySpirit,#HolisticWellness,#PositiveMovement,#MentalClarity,#EmotionalRegulation,#SelfCare,#LOVEWINS,The Core Affirmation: "I activate my Heart Palace, flowing with love, melting all stress."The Mnemonic Word for the Affirmation: "LOVE WINS"P.A.O.
