Matariki Part 2 – The Myth Became Fact: What Every Story Has Been Pointing to All Along In this episode, we explore how the gospel doesn't cancel culture—it redeems it. Pastor Ants walks us through Acts 17 and how the Apostle Paul stepped into the stories, poetry, and beliefs of his culture to reveal Christ at the centre. From ancient Māori traditions to Greek mythology, from Marvel movies to Matariki, this message uncovers how all stories carry echoes of the greater story—God's story. We talk C.S. Lewis, J. Gresham Machen, Māori legends, and even Avengers Endgame, showing how Jesus didn't come to erase the story—He came to fulfil it.

This week's critter of the week will resonate with highly observant nature lovers. You may have noticed strange little markings covering the surface of leaves, turns out these are actually tunnels created by some of our leaf mining insects. Insects like the leather-leaf star miner. As the name suggests, the caterpillars of these small brown moths make distinct star shapes on the leaves they mine through. As we have been looking at stars in the sky lately with the rising of Matariki, there are even more stars to find in our forests!

They Didn't See It, But They Believed It – A Remembrance Service Series: Matariki – Part 1 In this special Matariki message, we pause to remember — not just with grief, but with faith. Hebrews 11 reminds us of a crowd of witnesses: people who didn't see the fulfilment, but believed God was still writing the story. In Aotearoa, we have our own whakapapa of faith — from early missionaries to courageous Māori believers like Tārore and Wiremu Tamihana — who carried the gospel with conviction, even when the future was uncertain. Join us as we reflect on the power of remembrance, the hope of resurrection, and the faith that keeps echoing through generations. You'll hear a powerful invitation to live with purpose, fix your eyes on Jesus, and honour those who've gone before us with a candle-lighting moment of faith and hope.

Wine: Tiki Single Vineyard Pinot Gris 2024, North Canterbury, $23.00 In recognition of Matariki and to highlight we have a growing number of Māori wine producers in NZ (Tiki, Tarras, Steve Bird, te PA, Tohu). A crisp, dry style Pinot Gris with aromas and flavours of green pear and apple, some citrus highlights and a touch of quince. Just dry on the palate with an immediate bite of acidity and phenolics for texture and mouthfeel. There's a fine less quality adding complexity and breadth across the palate. Best drinking from late 2024 through 2027. The Food: A wine that is delicious with all sorts of hangi fare – especially kumara and pork belly. If you prefer seafood, then poached salmon with lemon is a great match. Vegetarians will like this wine with cashew nut dusted tofu burger with red beet and tasty cheese. The season: 2024 was an excellent year for most growers in NZ. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

One of people who had a hand in deciding when we mark Matariki is Māori astronomer Victoria Campbell and she's had a busy year from partnering with Minecraft to creating unique stamps with NZ Post. 

Matariki is a great time of year to slow down, reflect, and take stock of the different areas of our lives, and for some, it might be a good time to get into the garden.

e kō, nō hea koe is the debut poetry collection by award-winning slam poet and filmmaker Matariki Bennett (Ngāti Pikiao, Ngāti Whakaue, Ngāti Hinerangi).  Published by Dead Bird Books, e kō, nō hea koe is “a series of goodbyes and attempts to slow the shedding, it's a group of teenagers sparking up as they watch the great pacific garbage patch catapult into space and become a second moon, it's endless conversations with Grandmama about stars, it is the constant rebirth of whakapapa and learning that silence isn't the best part of her.”  Sofia caught up with Matariki about the themes of this body of work and how it came to fruition.

BEST OF TST: Halloween (and thanksgiving) is celebrated around the world in a variety of forms, often in ways westerners, and particularly Americans, would find confusing or out of place.

2024 was a bit of a rough year, with job losses, hard economic times, and low business confidence. The new year offers a chance to reset. Dr Dougal Sutherland offers his top tips for starting 2025 off with some oomph: If you have a job, count your blessings! Lots of people lost theirs last year and so it's important to remember that even though it may not be the best job in the world, at least you're in paid employment! Plan out your holidays for the year as best you can. Have a look for the public holidays that are happening in 2025, can you make any of these into longer weekends (e.g. four days instead of three) and give yourself that extra time to rest and recover? Looking ahead I can see there is quite a gap of public holidays between Matariki and Labour Day – can you plan for some leave then? Four months is a long time to go without a break, especially in winter. Make a daily ‘Have to, Hope to, Love to list' – “Have to” are things you must do today; “Hope to” are things that you can do if you have time; “Love to” is at least 1 thing per day that fills your cup – make sure to give this as much priority as “Have to”. Take some time to reflect on 2024 – what did you learn from the year? What went well and you would like to keep doing? Anything that you would like to avoid doing again that you did last year? Think about the people in your life – are there some who you would like to see more of? Can you plan ahead to make time for them? On the other hand, is there anyone who it may be better off not to have in your life? Are there some (polite) ways that you ease off these relationships?

Through colonization, hyper capitalism, and unaddressed trauma, many of us have forgotten how to play our part in the orchestra of the natural world. Join a conversation between two remarkable activists and legal practitioners from different continents, working in different communities, but who happen to share a belief in the power of creative expression help us reconnect to the entire web of life. They discuss interdependence, forgotten ways of relating to each other and all species, and how well-harmonized songs can bring delight and balance to the human spirit, to trees and plants and to our fellow fauna. Resources Video of this conversation from the 2024 Bioneers Conference Featuring Erin Matariki Carr, of Ngāi Tūhoe and Ngāti Awa descent, lives in her traditional homelands in Aotearoa/New Zealand and works in law and policy, with a focus on the interface between Indigenous and Western legal systems and methodologies. She previously worked as Manager of Planning & Design to create and implement policies under the world-first legislation conferring legal personhood to the Te Urewera rainforest. Matariki is currently a project lead at RIVER, where she focuses on the constitutional transformation movement in Aotearoa with a number of other teams, including Tūmanako Consultants and Te Kuaka NZA.

Just before dawn tomorrow, the Matariki star cluster will appear over the horizon signalling the start of the Maori new year. For several months, wahine at Auckland Women's Corrections Facility have been learning about and preparing for Matariki as part of their sewing group creating hand made goods for those in need, Louise Ternouth reports.

Auckland Council has announced $60,000 in funding to youth crime prevention group, Turn your life around. This is part of a broader plan of the Council to increase community safety. Wire Host Caeden asks Councillor Shane Henderson about this funding, and also about what's happening in Tāmaki Makaurau this weekend for Matariki.

Jim chats about how to reset your garden and brain for Matariki.

Matariki is a holiday we have here in New Zealand to celebrate the Maori New Year. It is an event that causes confusion within the Christian community. Some ignore the holiday, some view it as demonic and some can use it as an opportunity to point their kids to Jesus. In this episode, I unpack what the holiday is, how we should navigate it with our kids as believers and how we are going to use the holiday to point our kids to Jesus. It's an awesome episode and can be relevant for others who have national holidays that cause confusion and how they should navigate it with their kids. I pray this episode blesses you!

I missed you, Matariki is a new exhibition by Levi Kereama and Whiro Walker at Window Gallery in the University of Auckland General Library.  The accompanying text reads: I missed you Matariki. I needed you yesterday. There's been too much mamae. Too much tangi and too much mate. Give me a fresh start, a good feast Give me a glimpse at the ones I've lost and some hope the next season will be a good one Haere mai, tōku Matariki I mokemoke au mōu. Sofia spoke with one of the artists, Levi Kereama, about the kaupapa of the show and his work. 

The man instrumental in making Matariki an official public holiday is calling on the government to continue to support and help grow Matariki ahead of next weeks Budget. Professor Rangi Matamua was awarded an Officer of the New Zealand Order of Merit today in Wellington alongside several other Maori for achievements in their field. And as Ashleigh McCaull reports, a Maori musician also wants to see ongoing assistance for Maori Art.
