Read OnlineDisciples of Diverse BackgroundsJesus journeyed from one town and village to another, preaching and proclaiming the good news of the Kingdom of God. Accompanying him were the Twelve and some women who had been cured of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary, called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out, Joanna, the wife of Herod's steward Chuza, Susanna, and many others who provided for them out of their resources. Luke 8:1–3Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Susanna, and “many others” faithfully accompanied Jesus and the Twelve. This diverse group of disciples defied conventional expectations. They were not the kind of followers one might ordinarily assemble when launching a mission destined to reach the ends of the earth. Yet God's wisdom is not like our own. He perceives greatness not in social status, talent, or wealth, but in the sincerity, purity, and potential of each heart.The inclusion of women among Jesus' traveling companions is striking within the cultural framework of first-century Judaism. He not only welcomed them into His company but also entrusted them with meaningful participation in His mission. In doing so, He affirmed their dignity and revealed the universal scope of His call.Even more surprising is that some of these women came from questionable or afflicted pasts. Mary Magdalene is named first: “from whom seven demons had gone out.” The number seven signifies completeness, suggesting a full and profound liberation—perhaps from both moral disorder and physical torment. Her healing reveals the immense power of divine mercy. Once bound by darkness, she became a devoted disciple, eventually standing at the foot of the Cross and witnessing the glory of the Resurrection. Her life exemplifies how gratitude for mercy can blossom into unwavering love and enduring fidelity.Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, also deserves attention. Her association with Herod's court—a place marked by corruption—shows that the Gospel can penetrate even into environments of great moral disorder. Susanna and the many other unnamed women round out this community, highlighting a growing circle of female disciples drawn by the love and truth of Christ.These women provided for Jesus and the Twelve “out of their resources.” Their generosity was not only material, it was spiritual. Their stewardship played a vital role in sustaining the mission of Christ. By offering what they had, they became instruments of grace, foreshadowing the ongoing collaboration in the Church between lay and ordained, men and women, rich and poor.This early fellowship of followers models the Church in every age. They came from all walks of life: some devout, others formerly sinful; some wealthy, others of humble means; both men and women; people of high and low estate. Yet they were united in a single purpose: to follow Jesus and serve the Kingdom of God with all that they were.Reflect today on this unexpected company Jesus formed. Many people struggle with a sense of unworthiness or feel inadequate in their spiritual lives. If you have ever felt this way, take heart in the diverse group Christ called. Their varied and imperfect backgrounds reveal the deep and consoling truth that no one is beyond being called by God. Each of us, no matter our past or present, is invited to walk with Him, to offer what we have, and to participate fully in His redemptive mission. Accept this invitation. Join this holy company. And give yourself wholeheartedly to the proclamation of the Kingdom of God. Most merciful Lord, You always look beyond the sin to see the sinner, offering Your boundless mercy to all who turn to You in repentance. Please continue to call me to participate in Your divine mission of building Your Kingdom here on earth, so that I and all whom You touch through me may share in the eternal joy of Your Heavenly Kingdom. Jesus, I trust in You. Image: The Apostles, by Lawrence OP, CC BY-NC-ND 2.0.Source: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

  In this episode of our Goddess series, Kathleen Joan and I explore Mary Magdalene, the woman behind the stories, her place in early Christianity, and why her presence still matters so deeply today.    Mary Magdalene was a real woman who walked the earth. She was a devoted follower and the wife of Jesus, a spiritual leader in her own right, and a powerful presence in the resurrection story. And yet, over the centuries, her role was diminished, rewritten, and in many ways pushed to the edges.    So Kathleen and I ask a different question.    What happens when we bring Mary Magdalene back into the center of the story?    We explore the woman she was, the wisdom she carried, and how she has become such a powerful expression of the Divine Feminine for women who are hungry for a deeper, fuller understanding of the sacred.    My co-host for this series is Kathleen Joan, a priestess of Brigid devoted to the resurrection of the Divine Feminine in today's world, especially for women with Christian ancestry. Kathleen spent more than 15 years in ministry and holds a dual Master's degree in theology and ministry. Today, she brings that deep understanding of the Christian tradition into her work helping women reclaim the wild, sacred Feminine through Goddess teachings, channeling, energy healing, circles, and retreats.    Like Mary Magdalene, the Feminine has been erased, softened, and minimized in so many of our sacred stories.    But she was never truly gone. This conversation is an invitation to remember her, reclaim what was pushed aside, and make room again for the sacred Feminine wisdom that has been there all along.      Episode Highlights    00:00 — Introducing Mary Magdalene Knowing Mary Magdalene from three perspectives: the stories told about her, the historical person who lived, and the spiritual presence many people continue to connect with today.  02:27 — The Apostle to the Apostles Mary Magdalene is consistently named as the first witness to Jesus' resurrection. Her role as the person who carried that news forward gives her a foundational place in the Christian story.  06:28 — How Official Religious Narratives Were Shaped The episode examines how religious authorities established official teachings centuries after Jesus' death. Many writings associated with Mary and other women were excluded, hidden, destroyed, or lost, leaving gaps in the historical record.  08:39 — The First Message of Resurrection The central Christian message of life continuing after death was first brought to the community by Mary Magdalene. Her testimony was initially dismissed, revealing how women's spiritual authority was questioned even when they carried the core message of the faith.  11:48 — Why Her Teachings Were Threatening The idea that Jesus would teach a woman profound spiritual truths challenged emerging patriarchal leadership structures. Mary's experience was questioned because it did not fit the belief that divine knowledge should be controlled by male authorities.  12:43 — Connecting with the Divine Through the Heart Mary's message emphasizes that people can access the divine through their own hearts. Spiritual connection does not necessarily require an external institution to define or authorize the experience.  18:01 — Reclaiming the Feminine Story Mary's message focuses on correcting the narrative around her and restoring the feminine presence in sacred traditions.   20:23 — Seeing the Feminine in the Divine The divine is described as far more expansive than a solely male figure.   23:19 — Passion as Spiritual Power Passion, devotion, and deep feeling are described as spiritual powers that connect people with their loved ones, their souls, and the divine.  24:23 — The Divine Power of Devotion Love is framed as a force that lives within the body, heart, and whole human experience. Devotion can help keep wisdom and connection alive even through loss and separation.     Mentioned  Wild Wisdom Goddess Temple is Kathleen's online circle where Christian-rooted women reclaim their whole selves as sacred through the Divine Feminine. This 13-moon journey will help you return to honoring the Sacred She within as you meet Her in Her many names & forms, supported by a loving circle of sisterhood.  The Wealthy Witch Way is Julie's membership. Inside we weave together money work, magic, ritual, the Akashic Records, and feminine business wisdom to help you deepen your connection to Source, expand your receiving, and grow the work you're here to do profitably.    Connect with Kathleen Joan    Website: https://www.brigidsflame.org/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kathleenjoanns   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brigidsflameministry   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@brigidsflame-kj     Connect with Julie Foucht     Membership:  https://juliefoucht.com/wealthywitchway/  Website: https://juliefoucht.com/   Quiz: https://bit.ly/witchpreneur-quiz  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/artoffemininebusiness/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JulieFouchtCoaching/   Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/FeminineMarketingMagic/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@JulieFoucht   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/coachjulz/  Podcast: The Art of Feminine Business with Julie Foucht at https://juliefoucht.com/podcast/    

Read OnlineAn Unnamed Sinful WomanA certain Pharisee invited Jesus to dine with him, and he entered the Pharisee's house and reclined at table. Now there was a sinful woman in the city who learned that he was at table in the house of the Pharisee. Bringing an alabaster flask of ointment, she stood behind him at his feet weeping and began to bathe his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with her hair, kissed them, and anointed them with the ointment. Luke 7:36–38Why did Simon the Pharisee invite Jesus to dine at his house? Though the Gospel does not tell us explicitly, the context suggests that Simon was not yet a believer or disciple. Perhaps he was merely curious about Jesus or, more cynically, sought to test or expose Him. Nevertheless, Jesus, knowing the thoughts and intentions of every heart, accepted the invitation—likely because He perceived in Simon the potential for conversion and salvation.Traditionally, many have associated this unnamed sinful woman with Mary Magdalene, but the Scriptures do not support this identification. Others have confused her with Mary of Bethany, the sister of Martha and Lazarus, who anointed Jesus shortly before His Passion. Yet this event in Luke's Gospel is clearly distinct, taking place much earlier in Jesus' public ministry and under different circumstances.Though this woman is undoubtedly a real historical person, the fact that she remains unnamed invites a deeper spiritual reflection: She represents each of us. Her anonymity makes it easier for us to see ourselves in her story. We are all sinners in need of grace. Like her, we are called to approach the Lord with humility, sorrow, and deep love. Her gestures of repentance offer a model of adoration for every contrite heart.Her weeping, her use of her hair to wipe the Lord's feet, and her anointing of them with costly ointment are signs of a heart overflowing with both grief and affection. In her, we see the soul that has come to understand the weight of sin and the boundless mercy of the Savior. When we approach the Sacrament of Reconciliation, we often do so with fear and hesitation. It's tempting to minimize or gloss over our sins. But this woman, though she says nothing, expresses everything. Her actions cry out her sorrow and longing for forgiveness. She holds nothing back, which is precisely what makes her a model for us.Even more touching than her contrition is Jesus' response. He does not recoil, rebuke, or reject her. He receives her, defends her, and speaks words to her that must have pierced her heart with joy: “Your sins are forgiven” and “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”Such mercy, when fully received by a humble and contrite heart, is breathtaking. To those with hardened hearts, however, it can be scandalous. Simon thought to himself, “If this man were a prophet, he would know who and what sort of woman this is who is touching him, that she is a sinner.” And the others at table said among themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”The true cleansing, anointing, and kiss exchanged at that dinner were not what the woman gave to Jesus, but what Jesus gave to her. She washed His feet with her tears, but He washed her soul with His mercy. She anointed Him with costly oil, but He anointed her with the Holy Spirit. She kissed His feet in reverence, and He kissed her heart with divine love—betrothing her to Himself as her Heavenly Bridegroom. Reflect today on this unnamed sinful woman, and try to see yourself in her. Let her humility become your own. Let her tears of sorrow become yours. Let her bold and loving gestures toward Jesus inspire you to approach Him without fear or hesitation, especially in the Sacrament of Reconciliation. No sin is too great for His mercy. If you come to Him with a contrite heart, He will not only forgive—He will elevate your soul, heal your wounds, and unite Himself to you in the deepest bond of divine love. Let her story become your own act of love and trust.My compassionate Jesus, when a sinner approaches You with a contrite heart, Your Sacred Heart is moved with Divine Mercy. You do not hesitate to receive the repentant soul, to cleanse, anoint, and kiss it with Your love. You welcome the humble without shame or reproach. Please fill my heart with the same depth of sorrow and love shown by the sinful woman. May her tears become my own, and her boldness in love become the pattern of my life so that I also may hear You say to me, “Your sins are forgiven.” Jesus, I trust in You.  Image: Feast in the House of Simon by Artus WolffortSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life!

Interview starts at 31:35 This episode follows Wayne Purdin's early UFO encounters, his years as a UFO investigator, and how those experiences eventually led him into meditation, devotional practice, and prophetic interpretation. Graham Dunlop and Darren Grimes press Wayne on the line between extraterrestrial contact and spiritual experience, especially around CE5, grays, and higher beings. Wayne's story centers on a 1967 sighting that he describes as a first contact experience, plus a later cigar-shaped craft sighting with multiple independent witnesses. From there, the conversation moves into his spiritual framework, his books, and his view that the coming years are tied to a possible evacuation, mitigation, or golden-age transition.   My website: https://wayne-purdin.com My blog:  https://wpurdin.wixsite.com/elixir/ My articles on Sungazing: Sun Meditation and Gazing to Experience the God Presence, Sun Yoga, Sun Gazing, Surya Namaskar My contributions to Sunlightenment.com: sunlightenment.com/?s=Purdin#google_vignette shakti-meditation.com Key topics Wayne says his first UFO sighting happened on June 5, 1967, during a regional blackout, and he describes a large craft with several bright lights as a Pleiadian ship. He says that during that sighting he prayed for guidance and received a telepathic message: "you will find a teacher." Wayne recounts a second sighting in September 1967 of a silent cigar-shaped craft near Waterford, Connecticut. He says the next morning he heard multiple corroborating cigar-shaped UFO reports on talk radio, including one report of a craft splitting in half and another involving a person in a shiny spacesuit. He explains his background with APRO and NICAP, saying he investigated newspaper sightings and interviewed witnesses with a large tape recorder. The conversation shifts into meditation and spiritual development, including Wayne's move away from UFO investigation and into Transcendental Meditation and later teaching. Wayne discusses a meditative near-death experience where he encountered the goddess Durga, described a dweller or personal demon blocking access, and said the obstacle was overcome through devotion and love. He draws a clear distinction between spiritual contact and extraterrestrial contact, arguing that devotion and consciousness determine what kind of beings someone attracts. Wayne says he believes his 1967 message about meeting a teacher was fulfilled decades later when he met Ananda Devi Ma, whom he identifies as a co-author and spiritual guide. The bulk of the episode focuses on his prophecy work, especially his book Twenty Thirty Five Golden Ageand his timeline centered on September 9 to 11, 2029. He explains three different methods he used to derive the date, including a calculation from his own visions, a Daniel prophecy reference, and patterns in the Jewish calendar. Wayne argues that the coming period could involve mass evacuation, tribulation, or mitigation depending on collective karma and prayer. Graham and Darren repeatedly challenge and clarify whether the prophecy is fixed, symbolic, or something that can still be changed by consciousness and preparation.   Become a Lord or Lady with 1k donations over time.

The codex's circuitous path to publication in the mid-20th century is almost as compelling a tale as the gospel itself, which redefines the role of women in early Christianity and features a salvation that's rooted in individual agency. Religious historian Sarah Parkhouse joins us from the University of Manchester to discuss the reclamation of Mary's words and historical reputation, as well as how newly unearthed Greek fragments lend credence to this long-lost gnostic text.Mentioned in this episode:The Gospel of MaryRead The Gospel of MaryMary MagdaleneEschatology and the Savior: The ‘Gospel of Mary' among Early Christian Dialogue Gospels by Sarah ParkhouseThe Gospel of Mary Magdala by Karen L.

Neph 2 America is back with another round of cultural commentary for the end of days as David Lee Corbo (The Raven), Top Lobsta, Matt, and Gator react to some of the strangest stories, viral videos, conspiracy theories, paranormal clips, and religious controversies making the rounds online.The episode kicks into gear with a discussion about Benny Hinn, faith healing, falling under the supposed power of the Holy Spirit, charismatic church culture, and the social pressure that can surround supernatural experiences in church. The conversation then shifts to a viral clip showing children being “smudged” with smoke at school and whether Native American spiritual practices like sage smudging should be treated differently from other forms of paganism or witchcraft.Things get even stranger with the Mountain Dew Baja Midnight conspiracy. A viral video connects the new flavor to a “Blackout the System” campaign calling for people to stop working, traveling, and spending between September 16 and September 20. Is it coincidence, predictive programming, or just internet conspiracy culture doing what it does best?The paranormal section includes a toddler apparently interacting with something invisible, childhood ghost stories, and Goldie Hawn discussing a Ouija board experience that allegedly predicted another child before she became pregnant.Later, the crew reacts to the Toraja tradition of keeping deceased relatives at home, leading into a discussion of Catholic and Orthodox relics, the incorrupt hand of St. Teresa of Ávila, and the alleged skull of Mary Magdalene.The episode also covers homelessness and charity, a viral Texas Roadhouse boycott rumor, restaurant fights, social media victim culture, and a debate over abortion and whether a human zygote meets biological criteria for life.The final stretch includes YouTube rejecting promotion of a Straight Bible episode over alleged election-related advertising, discussion of Israel and airport screening, viral claims about aspirin and cancer research, Gordon Ramsay confronting restaurant owners over employee tips, circumcision, and one of the wildest clips of the episode: a Tesla apparently detecting hundreds of human-shaped figures while driving through a cemetery.Drop your take in the comments.

John 19:25-27 Standing by the cross of Jesus were his motherand his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas,and Mary Magdalene.When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple there whom he lovedhe said to his mother, “Woman, behold, your son.”Then he said to the disciple,“Behold, your mother.”And from that hour the disciple took her into his home.

Sometimes, to understand the meaning of a story Jesus told, you have to back up and understand the entire scene. For today's parable, we can't just jump into the story without looking at what happened right before it. The situation leading up to the parable is actually the key to understanding why Jesus told it in the first place. So, before we get to the story, let's back up a little. What was happening? Who was Jesus talking to? What had just unfolded? And what was Jesus trying to teach them? Luke 7:36–50 has four parts: the setting, the problem, the parable, and the point. And when you put all four pieces together, you see that Jesus wasn't simply telling a story about a sinful woman and a judgmental Pharisee. He was exposing something much deeper – the condition of the human heart. Let's start with the setting. Jesus has been invited to dinner at the home of a Pharisee named Simon. While they are eating, a woman with a reputation for being sinful enters the room. In fact, scripture calls her a “certain immoral woman”. She brings an alabaster jar of expensive perfume, stands behind Jesus, and begins to weep. Her tears fall onto His feet, and she wipes them with her hair. Then she kisses His feet and pours the perfume over them. Can you imagine the scene? This woman walks into a room where she knows she is not exactly welcome, and she goes straight to Jesus. She isn’t concerned about what everyone else thinks. She isn’t trying to defend herself or explain her past. She simply comes to Jesus with a heart full of something – love, gratitude, repentance, desperation. And she pours it all out at His feet. But the Pharisee is watching. Here’s the problem: Instead of seeing a woman who has come to Jesus, the Pharisee sees a woman who doesn’t belong in the room. It says, “When the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, ‘if this man were a prophet, he would know what kind of woman is touching him. She’s a sinner!'” He has elevated himself to be better than this woman. Not only that, he is critical of her worship. What comes next you can’t miss. Verse 40, “Then JESUS ANSWERED HIS THOUGHTS. ‘Simon,’ he said to the Pharisee, I have something to say to you.'” Notice the Simon hadn’t spoken a word about this woman, he had only been thinking these thoughts. But Jesus KNEW his thoughts and he addressed them. My friends, it really isn’t just about what you say, it is what you think and how you feel in your heart. Jesus knows – and he has something to say about it! Now, the parable, verses 41 & 42: “Then Jesus told him a story. ‘A man loaned money to two people – 500 pieces of silver to one and 50 pieces to the other. But neither of them could repay him, so he kindly forgave them both, canceling their debts. Who do you suppose loved him more after that?’ Simon answered, ‘I suppose the one for whom he canceled the larger debt.’ ‘That’s right,’ Jesus said. Now, the point: Then he turned to the woman and said to Simon, ‘Look at this woman kneeling here. When I entered your home, you didn’t offer me water to wash the dust from my feet, but she has washed them with her tears and wiped them with her hair. You didn’t greet me with a kiss, but from the time I first came in, she has not stopped kissing my feet. You neglected the courtesy of olive oil to anoint my head, but she has anointed my feet with rare perfume. I tell you, her sins – and they are many – have been forgiven, so she has shown me much love. But a person who is forgiven little shows only little love.’ Then Jesus said to the woman, ‘Your sins are forgiven.’ ———— Want to dig deeper with me? This immoral woman with a reputation is believed to perhaps be Mary Magdalene, who was likely a prostitute. It took so much courage for her to show up at a Pharisee’s house where she knew she would be judged. But absolutely nothing could stop her love for Jesus. When the Pharisee saw her, all he could see was her sin. And while Jesus was fully aware of her sin, he saw her love, her repentance and her devotion. There’s a saying that Satan knows your name but calls you by your sin – God knows your sin but calls you by your name. What a reminder for our hearts – how are we calling people? Is it all about what they’ve done, or can we remember WHO they really are? Who they were created to be. How God sees them. Jesus knew this woman. He saw her heart, just as he saw the Pharisee’s heart. Why did she love Jesus so much? Well, think about this perspective for a moment – this likely wasn’t their first encounter. Before this dinner, Jesus had probably encountered her privately. We read in Luke 8 about the women who joined the 12 disciples in following Jesus – one of them was Mary Magdalene whom he had cast out seven demons. We never see the actual encounter of Jesus casting out these demons from Mary Magdalene, we just know it happened. So, wouldn’t it make sense if this immoral woman with a bad reputation at dinner that night was Mary Magdalene – a woman who had experienced forgiveness, a woman who had been set free from the torment of seven demons, a woman whose life had been radically changed by Jesus – now comes boldly to the Pharisee’s house to thank Jesus. Doesn’t it make sense that she wasn’t letting anyone get in the way of her worshiping the one who had forgiven her for so much? She was a humble sinner pouring out her love for Jesus, knowing she had been forgiven – and guess what – that was awkward for others. It was an awkward scene at the dinner table. Jesus is sitting there trying to eat and here she is crying all over his feet and wiping her tears up with her hair. My friends, she is worshiping with a heart that is truly aware of what Jesus has done for her. The debt he has forgiven her of. The absolute life change he has made for her. The freedom she now walks in only because of him. He welcomed her praise. Why are we so afraid to be real with what Jesus has done for us? Why would we tone down our praise or dial back our worship? Hey, if you haven’t saved my soul, then I’m not going to let you stand in the way of me praising the one who has! If it’s awkward for you, I’m sorry because this isn’t about you or anyone else in the room. It’s about Jesus. And here's the thing: the woman wasn’t trying to impress anyone. She wasn’t putting on a show. She was responding to what Jesus had done for her. Her worship flowed from her awareness of her forgiveness. That is the point Jesus was making with Simon. The issue wasn’t that the woman was a really bad sinner and Simon was a pretty good guy. The issue was that the woman knew she needed forgiveness, and Simon the Pharisee didn’t seem to realize how much he needed it too. Simon looked at her and thought, She’s a sinner. Jesus looked at her and saw someone who had been forgiven. Simon looked at her past. Jesus saw her heart. Simon was focused on how much sin was in her life. Jesus was focused on how much love was flowing from her life. But what if, sometimes, we’re a little more like Simon than we’d like to admit? What if we have become so familiar with grace that we’ve forgotten what we’ve been forgiven of? What if we look at someone else’s mess and somehow forget that we have our own? What if we have quietly elevated ourselves – not because we would ever say, “I’m better than you,” but because somewhere in our hearts, we have started thinking it? That’s the danger of self-righteousness. It doesn’t always announce itself. Sometimes it just sits quietly at the dinner table. Jesus knew Simon’s thoughts, and He knows ours, too. He sees the thoughts we never say out loud. He sees the judgments we hide behind a smile. He sees the pride we don’t even recognize as pride. And He doesn’t expose our hearts to shame us. He exposes them because He wants to change them. The woman came to Jesus fully aware of her need. Simon was sitting inches away from Jesus and didn’t seem to realize his need at all. One walked away forgiven.The other was left to wrestle with what Jesus had just revealed about his heart. How aware are you of your need for Jesus? Because the more deeply we understand what we’ve been forgiven of, the more deeply we’ll love the One who forgave us. The woman didn’t worship Jesus because she was perfect. She worshiped Him because she knew she wasn’t. She knew her debt was great – and she knew her Savior was greater. And that’s us, too. We don’t come to Jesus because we’ve cleaned ourselves up enough to deserve Him. We come because we know we need Him. We don’t worship because we’ve earned His goodness. We worship because we’ve experienced His grace. So don’t let shame keep you from Jesus. Don’t let someone else’s opinion keep you from Jesus. And don’t let your own pride keep you from recognizing how much you need Jesus. Come to Him with your whole heart. Come with your gratitude. Come with your repentance. Come with your mess. Come with your worship. And when you really understand what He has forgiven you for, what He has rescued you from, and what He has done in your life, don’t be surprised if your worship gets a little awkward. Let it. Because sometimes the people who look the most ridiculous at the feet of Jesus are the ones who understand the most clearly just how much they have been forgiven. The story ends with verse 50. Reading from TPT, Jesus says to the woman, “Your faith in me has given you life. Now you may leave and walk in the ways of peace.” If this woman was indeed Mary Magdalene, she likely went from living a sinful life as a shameful prostitute, to walking closely with Jesus for the rest of his life, right up to the cross. Wow – if Jesus can change her life, can’t he change yours?

We often answer that question with our roles. Parent. Student. Worker. Coach. Pastor. But those are vocations, places where God gives us to live as His children. They were never meant to become our identity. In this message, Pastor Gerber looks at Mary Magdalene outside the empty tomb and the moment Jesus simply speaks her name. “Mary.” Before she is sent, she is known. Before vocation comes identity. Our identity is not something we achieve. It is something we receive. "I am a child of God, known and loved by Jesus." Jesus gives us an identity to live from, and then He gives us vocations to live in. Isaiah 43:1–7 1 John 3:1–3 John 20:11–18

The voices in her head had given her a new name. Then Jesus said her real one.This Sunday we begin a new series, The People Jesus Loved, featuring clips from Season 1 of The Chosen, and we start where the show does: Mary Magdalene. Luke says she was freed from seven demons; the gospels say she was the first to see the risen Jesus. In between is a story about which voices we listen to, and about the God who calls us by name.

Women have played a vital role in advancing the gospel from the very beginning.In Romans 16, the Apostle Paul introduces us to Phoebe—a trusted partner whose generosity, influence, and service helped further his ministry. Her story offers a compelling picture of what it means to use the resources God has entrusted to us to advance the gospel.John Rinehart, founder and CEO of Gospel Patrons, has spent years studying and telling the stories of men and women who have supported gospel ministry throughout history. He says Phoebe is one of the clearest biblical examples of what he calls a gospel patron.What Is a Gospel Patron?A gospel patron is someone who comes alongside those proclaiming the gospel and supports their work through relationships, influence, financial resources, and other practical means.These partnerships have existed since the earliest days of Christianity.Luke 8 tells us that Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Susanna, and other women supported Jesus and His disciples “out of their means.” They were using what God had given them to help make ministry possible.Throughout church history, the names of gospel patrons have often appeared in the background. They may not have been the ones preaching sermons, translating Bibles, planting churches, or leading missionary movements, but their generosity helped make those ministries possible.As Rinehart explains, behind many gospel proclaimers throughout history have been faithful men and women helping fuel the work.Phoebe was one of them.The Remarkable Trust Paul Placed in PhoebeRomans is one of the most significant theological writings in the New Testament. Yet when Paul reaches the final chapter, the first person he mentions is Phoebe. Paul writes:“I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a servant of the church at Cenchreae, that you may welcome her in the Lord in a way worthy of the saints, and help her in whatever she may need from you, for she has been a patron of many and of myself.” —Romans 16:1–2Phoebe was apparently someone Paul trusted deeply. She is widely understood to have carried Paul's letter to the believers in Rome—a significant responsibility involving a long and difficult journey.Paul also describes her as his own patron.We do not know exactly what Phoebe's financial support provided. She may have helped cover Paul's travel, living expenses, ministry costs, or even expenses associated with producing and distributing letters. Scripture does not tell us.What it does tell us is significant enough: Phoebe was an important partner in Paul's ministry, and her resources were being used in service to the gospel.Her example reminds us that faith and finances were never intended to occupy separate parts of our lives.Wealth Is an Opportunity to Do GoodChristians can sometimes struggle with how to think about money. We may begin to view wealth as something inherently worldly while treating faith as something private and spiritual.Scripture gives us a much more integrated picture.What we do with the resources God entrusts to us can itself become an act of worship. Money can be used to care for people in need, support missionaries, serve widows and orphans, strengthen ministries, and help spread the gospel.The important question is not merely, “How much wealth do I have?” It is, “How can I faithfully use what God has entrusted to me?”Phoebe understood that her resources carried Kingdom possibilities.That lesson may be particularly significant in the years ahead as enormous amounts of wealth change hands and women become increasingly influential stewards of financial resources. Phoebe offers a biblical picture of what can happen when financial influence is placed at God's disposal.Three Characteristics of a Gospel PatronRinehart identifies three qualities that can help us recognize faithful gospel patronage: vision, generosity, and humility.1. VisionGospel patrons develop eyes to recognize where God is working.They can see potential before the results are obvious. They recognize that something seemingly small today—a missionary, ministry, church plant, Bible translation, or act of service—may bear fruit far beyond what they will ever personally witness.That requires faith.God often begins His work through what appears small, like the mustard seed Jesus described. Gospel patrons have the vision to see what God might do and the willingness to participate.2. GenerosityVision eventually leads to action. Gospel patrons do more than admire good ministry. They joyfully put their resources behind it.That generosity may sometimes involve sacrifice. Instead of viewing giving merely as another financial obligation, gospel patrons see it as an opportunity to participate personally in God's work.Their resources become tools that can help others proclaim the gospel, serve people in need, and bless communities.3. HumilityGospel patrons are also willing to serve without being at the center of attention. They do not need the microphone.Their name may never appear on a platform or become widely known. Their joy comes from knowing that the work is being accomplished.Phoebe's name appears only briefly in Scripture, yet imagine the impact connected to the letter she carried. Christians have been studying Romans for nearly two thousand years.Sometimes extraordinary Kingdom impact happens through people willing to serve faithfully behind the scenes.How Do You Choose What to Support?Generosity should not mean giving impulsively to every opportunity that appears. Wisdom and discernment matter.Rinehart encourages believers to begin with prayer, asking God to help them see where they may have a role in His work.Then comes thoughtful evaluation.Before supporting a person or ministry, consider its theological convictions, character, competence, and clarity of mission. Talk with people who know the organization. Seek wise counsel. Ask whether the ministry has demonstrated faithful stewardship and whether its work aligns with biblical priorities.Generosity and due diligence do not compete with one another. Responsible stewardship includes both.You Don't Have to Wait Until You're WealthyPerhaps the idea of becoming a gospel patron sounds exciting, but you are still early in your career or don't have substantial financial resources.You do not have to wait.Jesus teaches in Luke 16 that faithfulness begins with what we have now. One of the dangers of generosity is always moving it into the future:I'll give when I earn more.I'll become generous when the debt is gone.I'll support ministry once I've reached a certain financial milestone.But habits established with a little often remain when we eventually have much. Start where you are.That might mean supporting a missionary with a modest recurring gift. It could mean giving toward a ministry you believe in, opening your home, sharing your professional expertise, introducing people who could accomplish more together, or intentionally creating financial margin so generosity can grow over time.Small acts of faithfulness have a way of preparing us for larger ones.Lifestyle matters here, too. Rising income can easily be consumed by rising expenses. If every increase in income automatically raises your lifestyle, generosity will always feel difficult.Choosing to live below your means can create margin not simply for financial security, but for giving.What Has God Put in Your Hands?Phoebe's story raises a question worth considering: What resources has God entrusted to you that could help advance the gospel?Perhaps it is wealth. Perhaps it is your business experience, professional expertise, relationships, home, influence, or ability to connect the right people.You may be called to proclaim the gospel publicly. Or you may be someone whose faithful support allows another person to devote more of his or her life to doing so.Both roles matter. Phoebe did not write Romans. Paul did.But Phoebe faithfully used what God had entrusted to her, and she became an important partner in Paul's ministry. Nearly two thousand years later, we are still saying her name.Her story reminds us that we do not need to be the person standing in the spotlight to have an extraordinary gospel impact. We simply need to ask God to show us what He has placed in our hands—and then faithfully use it for His glory.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm over 70, still working, and collecting Social Security.

✝️ The first person Jesus appeared to after His resurrection was not a king. It was not a priest. It was not one of the twelve disciples.It was a woman the world had written off.

  This episode kicks off a special six-part Goddess series exploring the many faces, stories, and wisdom of the Divine She.    I've been working directly with Goddess energy for the last few years, and I wanted to bring in someone with deep roots in Goddess lineage to co-host this series with me.    Enter my beautiful friend, Kathleen Joan.    Kathleen is a priestess of Brigid dedicated to the resurrection of the Divine Feminine in today's world, especially for women with Christian ancestry.    She began her spiritual path in the Catholic Christian tradition, holds a dual Master's degree in theology and ministry, and spent more than 15 years in ministry both inside and outside Christian institutions.    Today, Kathleen helps women reclaim the sacredness of the wild Feminine within themselves and take their place in the return of the Divine Mother.    Together, we're sitting down with five fascinating Goddesses, listening for what their ancient stories have to say to us now, and exploring how their wisdom shows up in our businesses, our lives, our magic, and our relationship with the Divine.    And yes, there may be a little channeling of Goddess wisdom along the way.    So grab your tea, light a candle if you're feeling witchy, and come meet the Goddesses with us.    And stay to the end, because we'll also tell you where you can find more of Kathleen and her beautiful   Goddess wisdom.     Episode Highlights   01:24: Goddesses as Living Energies  Goddesses can be experienced not just as mythology, but as living energies and teachers.     02:38: The Goddess Lineup for the Series  Several goddesses are named as part of the series, including Brigid, Persephone, Mary Magdalene, Sophia, and Kali. The feminine energy includes both tenderness and fire, not only softness.   07:18: Patriarchy, Religion, and Hidden Feminine Presence  How patriarchal systems can obscure feminine divinity; a story from Portugal and Fatima illustrates the idea that sacred feminine presence can remain underneath even heavily patriarchal structures.   09:38: Why the Business Is Called Bridget's Flame  The meaning behind Kathlee's business name and why Brigid became such a powerful symbol for her.     14:42: Encountering Goddesses as Energy, Not Just Archetype  The difference between studying goddesses intellectually and actually experiencing them energetically.   18:06: Discernment: Intuition, Fear, and Divine Knowing  How to tell the difference between fear, intuition, and divine guidance.     24:18: Curiosity as a Spiritual Practice  Encouraging everyone to stay curious and notice which Goddess energies create resonance or resistance.    Mentioned  Wild Wisdom Goddess Temple is Kathleen's online circle where Christian-rooted women reclaim their whole selves as sacred through the Divine Feminine.

Episode 080: In today's episode, we're talking about grief—not simply as an emotion we experience in our minds, but as something our bodies experience too. We'll explore what grief can feel like physically, why we sometimes try to rush, numb, intellectualize, or spiritualize our way through it, and what it might mean to grieve in a more embodied way. Through the stories of Lazarus, Martha, and Mary Magdalene, we'll also consider a beautiful truth of our Catholic faith: grief and hope are not opposites. Jesus meets us in our sorrow, sometimes while we're still weeping.Key TakeawaysGrief can show up as exhaustion, heaviness, numbness, tension, restlessness, tears, brain fog, and other embodied experiences.Christian hope doesn't require us to bypass sorrow; Jesus Himself wept even knowing the Resurrection was coming.Martha shows us that grief, questions, disappointment, and profound faith can exist simultaneously.Somatic grieving isn't about forcing emotions—it begins with gently noticing what is happening in the body and allowing appropriate expressions of grief.Mary Magdalene reminds us that we don't have to stop weeping before we encounter the risen Christ. He meets us in grief and calls us by name.Download my FREE Heart Safety Guide: https://embodiedcatholicwoman.com/heart-safety-guide/Connect with me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/femininegeniuscoaching

EVEN MORE about this episode!What if the story we've inherited about Mary Magdalene and the Virgin Mary is only part of the story? What did ancient and noncanonical texts say about these women—and why were some of those traditions pushed to the margins of history?Julie Ryan sits down with scholar, author, spiritual teacher, and Seven Sisters Mystery School founder Dr. Marguerite Rigoglioso for a provocative exploration of the Marys, the sacred feminine, ancient mystery traditions, and ideas about women's spiritual authority that challenge conventional narratives.Marguerite shares her research and interpretations of Gnostic writings, the Infancy Gospel of James, and ancient Greek and Egyptian traditions, exploring portrayals of Mother Mary and Mary Magdalene as spiritual teachers, healers, priestesses, and leaders. She discusses the controversial idea that Mother Mary may have been Mary Magdalene's teacher, why Mary Magdalene's role was diminished in later traditions, and what these alternative sources suggest about women's authority in early spiritual communities.The conversation ventures even further into mystery as Julie and Marguerite explore divine and virgin birth traditions, ancient goddess practices, Marian apparitions, sacred sites and ley lines, the Pleiades and Seven Sisters traditions, the spiritual symbolism of roses, and whether ancient cultures preserved pieces of the same sacred story.Marguerite also shares deeply personal spiritual experiences—including an awakening at the ancient site of Eleusis and an experience involving Mother Mary that helped her reconnect with her own deceased mother.Then, near the end of the conversation, something special happens: Marguerite channels messages she attributes to Mother Mary and Mary Magdalene, including a message about love, spiritual connection, and the possibility that these figures remain available to those who seek them.Julie and Marguerite close by exploring one of humanity's oldest questions: Why do we incarnate at all—and what if resurrection represents something available to every soul?Whether you grew up Catholic or Christian, feel drawn to Mary Magdalene, are exploring the Divine Feminine, or simply suspect there may be more to these ancient stories than you were taught, this conversation will give you plenty to consider.Guest Biography:Marguerite Rigoglioso, Ph.D. is an award-winning author, oracle, and founding director of Seven Sisters Mystery School. She is the foremost authority on the history and practice of divine birth, and a celebrated pioneer in the revival of Mother Mary, Mary Magdalene, and the womb mysteries ~ particularly with her books The Secret Life of Mother Mary and The Mystery Tradition of Miraculous Conception. Through deep communion with the Marys, the Pleiades, and Goddess Sophia, Marguerite guides people to reclaim their sacred voice, intuitive power, and soul calling. Her offerings ~ especially the Mary & Magdalene Priestess Training and Seven Sisters' Inner Sanctum Temple ~ support a new generation of spiritual leaders in embodying the Divine Feminine in harmony with the Sacred Masculine for this turning of the age.

She faithfully followed Jesus through His crucifixion, witnessed His burial, encountered the risen Christ, and was entrusted with the extraordinary responsibility of announcing His resurrection.The episode also examines how cultural assumptions can sometimes influence Christian interpretation and why believers should distinguish biblical teaching from traditions that may have developed later.Jamie's central message is simple but powerful: God is better than we have imagined, He profoundly loves women, and He purposefully includes them in His redemptive work.This conversation encourages both men and women to recognize that God works through willing, faithful believers and that the Body of Christ is strongest when believers honor one another while keeping Jesus and His redemptive mission at the center.In This EpisodeJamie Hulker's personal faith journeyStudying Scripture verse by verseWomen throughout God's redemptive planDeborah's leadership in JudgesMary Magdalene and the resurrection of JesusLydia and the Gospel entering EuropePhoebe, Priscilla, Junia, and Romans 16Paul's relationship with female coworkersBiblical calling versus cultural expectationsWhy secondary theological issues should not divide the ChurchMen and women working together in the Body of ChristFaithfulness, obedience, calling, and Christian purposeRestoring biblical conversations that honor God and one anotherKeywords / TagsJamie Hulker, Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast, Kingdom Crossroads Podcast, TS Wright, CPE Summer 2026, Christian Product Expo, women in the Bible, women in ministry, women in God's redemptive plan, biblical women, Mary Magdalene, Deborah in the Bible, Lydia Bible, Phoebe Romans 16, Priscilla and Aquila, Junia Bible, Romans 16 women, Apostle Paul women, Paul and women, Christian women, women of faith, women and Christianity, biblical womanhood, Christian leadership, women in church leadership, women in the early church, God's purpose for women, God's calling, redemptive plan, Body of Christ, Christian discipleship, Bible study, Christian author, Christian books, Christian podcast, Christian interviews, biblical theology, biblical equality, spiritual calling, Gospel of Jesus Christ, resurrection of Jesus, Great CommissionCall to ActionAre you ready to look again at what Scripture says about the men and women God uses to accomplish His purposes?

It Was There All Along: Learning to See Differently Have you ever searched everywhere for something, only to discover it had been right in front of you all along? That's exactly what happened when I “lost” my son's college diploma. I remembered bringing it in from the mailbox. I remembered thinking, I need to put this somewhere safe. But after that? Nothing. I searched everywhere. My family helped me search. I retraced my steps. I even asked St. Anthony for his intercession. The problem wasn't that the diploma was gone. The problem was that I had convinced myself I knew what I was looking for. I pictured a large, flat cardboard envelope. In reality, the diploma had arrived in a cardboard tube—and it had been sitting safely in my dining room all along. I was looking right past it because it didn't look the way I expected it to look. And isn't that something we do in life, too? We decide what an answered prayer should look like. We decide what needs to happen before we can have peace or joy. We decide who another person is the difficult coworker, the frustrating family member, the stubborn spouse and then we begin noticing everything that confirms what we've already decided about them. And sometimes we even do it to ourselves. I'm not enough. I'm too much. I'm a failure. I'm damaged. I've missed my chance. But what if we're looking through the wrong lens? In this episode, I'm sharing what one lost diploma taught me about allowing God to change the way we see our circumstances, our relationships, ourselves and even Him. We'll talk about: Why our expectations can keep us from recognizing what God is already doing How we can become so focused on someone's faults that we stop seeing their goodness The difference between healthy discernment and reducing someone to their worst moments How our wounds can shape the way we see other people The labels we place on ourselves that God never gave us Why peace and joy may not require our circumstances to change What the disciples on the road to Emmaus and Mary Magdalene can teach us about recognizing Jesus when He doesn't appear the way we expected Maybe finding what you're searching for doesn't require searching harder. Maybe it requires seeing differently. So as you listen, I invite you to bring one question to prayer: Holy Spirit, where are You asking me to see differently? Maybe it's a person. Maybe it's a prayer. Maybe it's your circumstances. Maybe it's yourself. Or maybe you've been searching everywhere for peace, joy, hope, purpose, or rest—only to discover that what your heart really needs has been right in front of you all along.

She shares how goddess wisdom has been suppressed creating an imbalance in humanity, and Mary Magdalene was misrepresented as a prostitute. In fact, she was the closest and most advanced disciple of Jesus, and his life companion.

Dear Friends, In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with my new friend, David Lorimer, writer, poet, philosopher, Programme Director of the Scientific and Medical Network, and Chair of the Galileo Commission. We recently met in the South of France, while I was on Dr. Nicola Amadora's Mary Magdalene tour. For decades, David has been at the forefront of conversations exploring consciousness, science, spirituality, near-death experiences, and the deeper nature of reality.We begin with David's lifelong “quest for wisdom” and why true wisdom cannot be separated from love, compassion, discernment, and direct experience. We also dive into the research surrounding near-death experiences, survival of consciousness, and the possibility that death is not an ending, but a transition into another mode of consciousness. David shares decades of experience studying these phenomena and the recurring patterns reported by people who have come close to death.“We have to wake up, and we have to try to use our lives to contribute to the larger common good, and to grow in love and wisdom.”— David LorimerKey Takeaways- Wisdom is more than knowledge. True wisdom integrates discernment and deeper understanding with love and compassion.- Intuition is fundamental to discovery. Major scientific breakthroughs often begin with intuitive insight before the analytical mind works out the science.- Our current scientific understanding of consciousness may be incomplete, opening the door to a much larger exploration of the nature of mind and reality.- Death may be a transition rather than an ending. Near-death experiences show striking recurring patterns, including peace, out-of-body experiences, beings of light, and life reviews.- We may be expressions of one consciousness, raising profound questions about interconnectedness and the nature of the self.- The mind and heart need to develop together. Intellectual or spiritual knowledge alone does not necessarily create an integrated human being.- Mary Magdalene offers another lens on the Divine Feminine and the integration of sacred masculine and feminine principles.Our lives can serve something larger. The invitation is to wake up, expand our consciousness, contribute to the common good, and continue growing in love and wisdom.Thank you for listening! We're now opening a private Community membership for those interested in processing the podcast and joining live monthly calls to discuss the content. Learn more here. If this episode resonates with you, you may also enjoy Yasmeen's work through the ⁠Inner Knowing School,⁠ where she teaches intuition, energetic mastery, multidimensional awareness, and nervous system regulation through private immersions and executive cohorts. You can also explore Yasmeen's latest book, ⁠A Glitch in the Matrix: 10 Energy Codes to Become the Main Character of Your Life⁠, available on Audible, Kindle, and in print.

In this message we see that just as God chose Mary Magdalene to receive the truth of Jesus and to share it with others, God is choosing us to receive that truth and to share it with others. Yes, we are not the first, she is. But our story looks like her story because Jesus is the same in our story as he is in her story. May we be inspired and encouraged as examine Mary more closely.

AUG 30 | Who Is This King? | Mark 15:40-16:8 ...Some women were watching from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joseph, and Salome. In Galilee these women had followed him and cared for his needs. Many other women who had come up with him to Jerusalem were also there.It was Preparation Day (that is, the day before the Sabbath). So as evening approached, Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent member of the Council, who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God, went boldly to Pilate and asked for Jesus' body. Pilate was surprised to hear that he was already dead. Summoning the centurion, he asked him if Jesus had already died. When he learned from the centurion that it was so, he gave the body to Joseph. So Joseph bought some linen cloth, took down the body, wrapped it in the linen, and placed it in a tomb cut out of rock. Then he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb. Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joseph saw where he was laid. When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus' body. Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb and they asked each other, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?”But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away. As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed.“Don't be alarmed,” he said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter, ‘He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.'”Trembling and bewildered, the women went out and fled from the tomb. They said nothing to anyone, because they were afraid.

Plus: her complicated relationship with antidepressants, weathering fertility struggles, and aging in public. Sara Bareilles joins Dan to discuss her new album Good Grief, a record she made after losing three close friends — Chad Joseph, Gavin Creel, and poet Andrea Gibson. The conversation covers grief as a transformative force, medication and mental health, fertility struggles and miscarriage, the creative process as spiritual transmission, aging without intervention, and patriotism as grief.  In this episode we talk about: Grief is a shortcut to the truth — it strips away distraction and forces presence "Name it to tame it" — putting feelings into words reduces their power Sara's fear that medication would suppress her artistry turned out to be the opposite: Lexapro felt like "a return to herself" The creative process as clearing a channel rather than owning the output — music arrives, it isn't manufactured "Nothing to fix" — acceptance as a countercultural act in an era of optimization Acceptance isn't resignation — you can surrender to what is and still take compassionate action Grief of country: loving America and mourning what it's becoming aren't mutually exclusive Social media distorts your experience of reality — have your experience of the world in the world Sara Bareilles is a two-time Grammy winner and Tony-nominated composer whose music and lyrics powered the Broadway hit Waitress — a role she later performed herself, both on Broadway and in London's West End. On screen, she earned an Emmy nomination for Girls5eva and for her performance as Mary Magdalene in NBC's Jesus Christ Superstar Live!

The first part is in English, and the second part is in Malayalam starting at 10.39 mark.  One encounter with Jesus changed the whole life  and life style of Mary Magdalene. Even in this modern age, it is hard for a woman from whom demons are cast out to come forward publicly and serve God boldly.  Two thousand years ago, Mary Magdalene could overcome her shame and fear of the public once Jesus interfered in her life.  The life of Mary Magdalene teaches us several lessons about the divine healing power of Jesus, how loving and friendly Jesus is, the positive results of a complete surrender to God, the amazing transformation that can occur in our life through an encounter with Jesus, and the resulting boldness with which we can serve God.  God can save and use us regardless of how unclean, sinful  and worldly we are.  My life also got transformed after one encounter with Jesus thirty one years ago.My name...

What happens when a culture loses its relationship with the Divine Mother? Meghan Farner and Jocelyn Pedersen explore the Heavenly Mother wound—and how spiritual motherlessness may be showing up in our relationships, religions, and cultural conflicts.Rather than reducing today's tensions between men and women to feminism versus patriarchy, Meghan and Jocelyn ask what might be underneath them. What happens when the feminine is feared, diminished, or disconnected from divinity? And how might reclaiming Heavenly Mother change the way we understand both feminine and masculine spiritual identity?Together they explore the loss of the Divine Feminine, the deeper meaning of spiritual motherhood, masculine surrender and vulnerability, and Christ as a pattern of integration rather than hierarchy. They also consider creation and gestation as sacred symbols, feminine spiritual authority, women as mirrors and initiators, and the role of both masculine and feminine in the journey toward wholeness.This conversation invites us beyond the battle between masculine and feminine and toward something deeper: the restoration and integration of both.00:00 - The Divine Feminine and Our Cultural Moment 04:22 - Why Are We Seeing a Backlash Against Women? 09:17 - When Feminism and Patriarchy Both Miss the Point 14:37 - The Heavenly Mother Wound: A Motherless Culture 21:01 - Why the Feminine Is Feared 23:22 - Who Is the Divine Mother? 30:20 - Discovering Heavenly Mother 32:33 - The Divine Feminine in Christ 38:10 - Creation, Gestation, and the Feminine Pattern 44:03 - Spiritual Rebirth and Returning to the Mother 48:32 - Feminine Authority, Anointing, and Christ 52:29 - Mary Magdalene and the Hidden Feminine 56:20 - Masculine Healing: Surrendering the False Self 62:12 - Shame, Vulnerability, and Becoming Whole 64:19 - Women as Mirrors and Spiritual Initiators 68:02 - Reclaiming the Feminine Without Creating DivisionReclaiming the Woman in the Wilderness Retreat - September 11-12 - Lehi, UT  Continue Your JourneyIf this episode resonated with you, there are several ways to go deeper:

"God gets the last word" — no matter how chaotic the headlines get, how deep the hurt runs, or how final a situation looks, God is never caught off guard, and He always has the final say. In this message, Bishop Dale C. Bronner opens Matthew 24 to correct a common misunderstanding about Christ's return, walks through Romans 8:28's real meaning using a pound cake illustration, and traces the stories of Naomi, Job, Mary Magdalene, and the Apostle Paul to show that a hard chapter is never the final one. The message closes with the story of a painting titled "Checkmate," and the reminder that the King always has one more move. You'll learn: Why Jesus's return is not a secret rescue mission, but a triumphant return as King of Kings What Romans 8:28 actually promises — and what it doesn't The enemy's real strategy: getting you to stop bothering before he ever gets you to stop believing Why your last mistake, failure, or hard season doesn't get to define you How God meets people exactly where they are, with no cleanup required first

What does it mean to let something end?In this episode, I'm taking you into the late summer garden to explore the simple practice of deadheading and what it can teach us about letting go. As I remove spent blooms from my petunias, I reflect on the ways we continue to hold onto things that have already completed their cycle and how much energy that can quietly require.

Why Are You Weeping?In John 20:1-18, Mary Magdalene stands outside the empty tomb weeping. Jesus has risen, but Mary does not recognize Him. The world has already changed before her heart can understand what has happened.Then Jesus speaks one word:“Mary.”The resurrection is God's act for the world. Jesus speaking Mary's name is God's act for Mary.In this message, Artie Farve explores grief, resurrection, recognizing Christ's presence, and the hope that Jesus may already be near even when we cannot see what He is doing.Mary begins by saying, “They have taken my Lord.”She leaves saying, “I have seen the Lord!”Scripture: John 20:1-18 Message: Why Are You Weeping?

My fears of suffering by comparison were quashed within the first minute of this highly entertaining, beautifully sung (with musical direction by Tom Scutt) and astonishingly choreographed (kudos to Drew McOnie) production.  The original revival at Regent's Park Open Air Theatre in 2016 was just so good. Fast forward a decade, and JCS is at The Palladium. It's just a powerhouse of a revival, and I urge fans of the musical…and sceptics of the musical…to see it before it closes.   I sat down with the delightful Desmonda in her dressing room (thankfully air-conditioned in this crazy London heatwave) to talk about her journey from Jakarta to London, her career to date and her taking on the iconic role of Mary at the most iconic stage in London.

“He appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom He had cast seven devils.” — Mark 16:9 Mary of Magdala was the victim of a fearful evil. She was possessed by not one devil only, but seven. These dreadful inmates caused much pain and pollution to the poor frame in which they had found a […]

This conversation with bestselling author Elise Loehnen explores how spiritual practice can help us question the beliefs we've inherited about being a "good woman." Krista + Elise unpack shame, envy, comparison, and desire, revealing how these patterns shape our lives—and how spirituality can become a path back to authenticity. Together, they explore the misunderstood story of Mary Magdalene, the origins of the seven deadly sins, and why emotions like envy, anger, and longing aren't flaws to overcome but invitations to deeper self-understanding. Elise shares how questioning old narratives can become one of the most powerful spiritual practices we have. From body image + ambition to belonging + purpose, this conversation invites you to rethink the rules you've inherited and embrace a more intentional way of living. If you've ever struggled with comparison, perfectionism, or feeling like you have to be "good" to be worthy, this episode offers a fresh perspective on spirituality, freedom, and self-worth. We also talk about: The truth about Mary Magdalene that history left out How the "good girl" script shows up in everyday life Why envy is pointing you toward your next chapter Releasing guilt around desire, ambition, and wanting more Healing your relationship with food + your body The emotional cost of comparison + perfectionism How shame disconnects us from our intuition Choosing depth over performance in the age of social media Finding freedom beyond society's expectations Why your triggers may be your greatest teachers Resources: Instagram: @eliseloehnen Substack: eliseloehnen.substack.com Book: https://a.co/d/0hlAvZYx Sponsors: Naturium | Give your skin the affordable, luxurious glow up it deserves.

I'm celebrating my 300th episode today! I am also launching the ⁠⁠Gateways to Awakening Patreon community ⁠to share behind-the-scenes voice notes and live monthly online gatherings to process the episodes. [Just launched!]I just returned from one of the most profound experiences I've had in years, a pilgrimage through Southern France exploring the teachings of Mary Magdalene with Dr. Nicola Amadora, renowned spiritual teacher, holistic psychologist, women's leader, author, and speaker. I was so deeply moved that I knew I had to invite her onto Gateways to Awakening.In this conversation, we explore what it truly means to embody the Divine Feminine. We talk about why so much of modern spirituality has become disconnected from the body, our emotions, relationships, and the fullness of our humanity, and why awakening isn't about transcending our human experience, but learning to inhabit it more fully."You don't become enlightened by escaping your humanity. You become more fully alive by inhabiting it." - Dr. Nicola Amadora "Take your meditation cushion into the world." - Dr. Nicola Amadora Nicola shares a radically embodied perspective on spirituality, reminding us that the sacred isn't somewhere "out there" waiting for us to find it, it's already here, alive in our bodies, our hearts, our relationships, and the natural world. ​​We also dive into the life and legacy of Mary Magdalene, her role as a teacher, healer, leader, and embodiment of the sacred feminine, and explore the history of the Cathars, the Way of Love, and why these teachings feel so relevant in the world today. Dr. Nicola also spent time with Mother Teresa, Amma, the Tibetans, Thich Nhat Hanh, and so many wisdom teachers, and is truly one of the most embodied teachers I've met. In this episode, we explore:What the Divine Feminine actually is, and why it's so often misunderstoodWhy embodiment is essential to authentic awakeningThe relationship between spirituality, shadow work, and emotional healingHow to move beyond spiritual bypassing and fully inhabit your humanityMary Magdalene's teachings and her role in restoring the sacred feminineThe Cathars, the Way of Love, and their extraordinary legacyWhy love isn't something we transcend into, it's something we embodyDr. Nicola Amadora is an internationally renowned spiritual teacher, holistic psychologist, women's leader, author, and speaker who has spent more than 30 years guiding thousands of people worldwide in the revolutionary path of love, liberation, and embodied spirituality. Rooted in the ancient wisdom of the feminine and the teachings of Mary Magdalene, her retreats, professional trainings, and transformative programs invite people to awaken their deepest life force and live from greater authenticity, courage, and compassion. She is the author of Love Unleashed and the founder of a global movement dedicated to the rise of the feminine, inspiring profound personal transformation and a more heart-centered world.We would LOVE to hear from you!

Welcome to Mysterious Universe Season 36 episode 01! Kicking this fresh new season off with a look at the uber-religious view of what happens after they die. Christians believe that death is not the end, but the beginning of an eternal existence based on faith in Jesus. The afterlife centers on the promise of a restored, perfect world-often described as a renewed Earth-where believers experience unhindered joy, total healing, and the continual presence of God. Today, we talk death, dying, and your right to die. That includes a 30-minute-in-heaven near-death trip to a crystal city in the sky to hang out with super Jesus. Only to be pulled back into your body by a death-rebuking reverend, who you asked to be there. Hold onto your belief systems as we talk “Beyond and Back”, with some near-death-experiencing , after-life visiting Christian's. In our Plus+ extension we go into Walter Russell's The Secret of Light. Russell's classic workpresents a vision of reality where consciousness, not matter, is the foundation of the universe. We attempt to present his ideas about Light, balance, electricity, cycles, and the wave nature of creation, exploring a worldview that attempts to unite science, spirituality, and philosophy into one broad explanation of existence.
