Do You Know Who Is Visiting Us Today 11 Afterward he was on his way to a town called Nain. His disciples and a large crowd were traveling with him. 12 Just as he neared the gate of the town, a dead man was being carried out. He was his mother's only son, and she was a widow. A large crowd from the town was also with her. 13 When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her and said, "Don't weep." 14 Then he came up and touched the open coffin, and the pallbearers stopped. And he said, "Young man, I tell you, get up!" 15 The dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him to his mother. 16 Then fear came over everyone, and they glorified God, saying, "A great prophet has risen among us," and "God has visited his people." 17 This report about him went throughout Judea and all the vicinity. Luke 7:11–17 I want to start by emphasizing part of verse sixteen—"God has visited His people" What would go through your mind if you were to have a patrol car pull in front of your house and two officers come up to knock on your door? How about your boss walking into your office and closing the door behind him? There is a line in an old song that talks about the taxman com'in a'knock'in. In war time the last thing parents—or wives—want to see is that unmarked car pull-up and a couple of well-dressed military men get out and ring the doorbell. All of these visits are ominous. Many consider a visit from God to be like this. Even the gentle Jesus, as some portray Him… only to be. Why? Why would Jesus coming for a visit be ominous? Because He never leaves things as they were. Jesus revealed sin in the heart, when many only look to outward action… like many of the religious sort… So…how religious are you? What did Jesus do when He visited the so-called pious? He called them out. He called them nicely painted graves, full of dead men's bones. He took time to make a whip and threw some of them, out of His Father's house for doing what they called church business there. How many in our day, consider prosperity, growth, and numbers to be marks of a good Church? Are we moneychangers? Does this place become somewhere to show social position—or religiousness… rather than a sanctuary for refugees of a real spiritual war? This spiritual war we are in not only kills the soul, but the body as well. If it were not so, the young man in our text would not have died. The church is supposed to be a place to find help—a place to call out in our need, in prayer.It is not a place to show how much we—to show anything off…anything other than our sin—to admit our condition— TO HIM… And this … SO AS TO BE FORGIVEN. Yet DO WE compare—our car to the one you pull in next to in the church lot…. Do you wonder about those people in the pew in front of you? Why are THEY here? And MY kids…never, of course, made THAT kind of noise when they were in church! Did you know that Jesus cursed a fig tree because it did not produce fruit. So, can we show Him all the great fruit stored away to our merit? Now, do you know what He expects of you? He says that it is not just a matter of our doing wrong. It's that we do not even do what is right. Simple, common stuff is left undone—day in and day out—hour-to-hour. Do you want Him making a list? How detailed can He get with that? Minute-by-minute… or how about second-by-second? How uncaring, lazy and selfish have we been? All those things left undone! Do you know that this is really the same as hating, stealing, and killing. This is what we are about. Yes, by leaving these things undone, we do these other. Depraved indifference is a crime… "Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the book of the law, to do them." So, Jesus coming to visit… means the truth about us and these… no covering up when He is around…. He points to the corruption and sin of the heart—FIRST.
In Luke 7:11-17, Jesus encounters a widow's funeral procession for her only son outside Nain. Jesus demonstrates true compassion by seeing her grief, feeling her pain deeply, and taking action by raising her son from the dead. This miracle was unique because it came without any request or demonstration of faith—it flowed purely from Jesus' compassion. As followers of Christ, we're called to mirror this compassion by truly seeing hurting people, allowing ourselves to feel their pain, and taking concrete action to help, remembering that genuine compassion always combines emotion with action.
Funeral service for Robert Donald Warren (1926-2025) By telling how Jesus raised the widow of Nain's son, Luke records the compassion and power of Jesus as a foreshadowing of the bigger history of how God overcomes death in visiting his people.

This Sunday, we meet Jesus at a crossroads, literally. One crowd is following Him, full of hope and anticipation. The other is leaving a town called Nain, broken by grief and carrying a coffin. When these two processions collide at the city gate, something unforgettable happens. And it's not just a miracle, it's a message. The Kingdom is breaking in and the world will never be the same.
Luke 7:1–50 & 8:40-56 Faith and faithfulness Part 1 The whole of chapters 7 and 8 make up one section of Luke’s narrative so we will read them together though we will only look at chapter 7 in detail in this study. Not least because of the striking similarities and differences in the people involved between the first and last passages 7:1–17 and 8:40–56. 1. Jesus Restores Health and Life! (Luke7:1–17 and 8:40–56) Question 1.What is the second passage about? How does it differ from the first passage? The second passage is about healing of a woman and the bringing back to life of a man’s daughter. Remember: the first was about the healing of a man and the bringing back to life of a woman’s son. Luke has obviously put these particular stories at the beginning and end of this section very deliberately. He has carefully constructed the whole section. The important question is why has he done this–apart from the fact that this was the way that they wrote things in the Roman world of those days? When we look at the two chapters together we will see that he has built them so that the stories of the second part reflect the first part. The first part has two healings, 7:1–17; an account of the doubts of John the Baptist. 7:18–35 and then tells us about contrasting attitudes to Jesus, 7:36–50. The second part reverses that order telling us about contrasting attitudes to Jesus, 8:19–33, 38, 39; then the doubts and rejection by the Gerasenes, 8:34–37 and finally the two healings we have already looked at in 8:40–56. In the middle is a parable about the man who sowed some seed, getting different reactions from the different types of soil. We can think of this as a reflection because the second half is the mirror image of the first half. There are many of these reflections in the Bible. One very obvious example is in Amos 5: 4b–6a, although unlike most of the Biblical reflections that one does not have an important middle. In most of them the middle is important to explain why the second half is different from the first. In our example here in Luke the middle, the parable, is clearly very important, though it does not alter the second part significantly. Luke wants us to see that the whole section is about faith and faithfulness. One Greek word has both meanings whereas we split the two apart in English. By ‘faith’ we mean mainly mental agreement with the teachings of a religion–‘faith’ goes on in our heads. By ‘faithfulness’ we mean living in a way that follows the teachings of that religion–‘faithfulness’ goes on mainly in our actions. We will look at that more in the next study. 2. Jesus and the Centurion (Luke7:1–17) Not for the last time Luke has a story about a centurion. He wants Theophilus (and us) to understand that Christian faith was acceptable to these significant people in the Roman world. Question 2.We are told many good things about the centurion (7:2–5). We are told nothing about the widow of Nain. What can we learn from that? There will have been plenty of people around with a vague faith in God who kept the religious laws, but this Gentile Centurion recognized that God was at work in Jesus and was prepared to act accordingly by trusting Jesus. Are we prepared to turn a vague faith into action when God works? Just possibly Luke knew the centurion because he joined the early church, but the widow of Nain did not, so he did not know her. 3. Doubts of John the Baptist (Luke 7:18–35) Question 3. John expected the Messiah to act like his idea of what a Messiah would do. Jesus quotes Isaiah 35: 5,6 and 61: 1,2 to tell him he is wrong. In what ways was John wrong? What did they expect the Messiah to do? What was Jesus doing that was unexpected? John evidently shared the general expectation of what the Messiah would do. John will have understood himself to be the messenger of Malachi 3: 1 –3; 4: 1–3 and therefore that all that those verses suggested would happen. Particularly if you live in a hostile society it is important, and encouraging, to remember how hostile the society in which Jesus and the early church lived and worked was. 4. Jesus and Debts! (Luke 7:36-50) Question 4.What does Jesus mean when he talks about debts (7:39–43)? Do we have big or small debts to be cancelled? (We probably think we have only small debts to pay (v 41,42) but big or small counts the same!) Do we show as much love as we should for Jesus who cancelled our debts? Jesus was talking about the way in which those who followed him and were members of the people of God needed to remember that they were in debt to God. We, living later, know that we rely on Jesus dying for us to cancel the things in our lives, which stop us, being accepted by God. Since ‘all have sinned’ it does not matter whether our sins are big or small they still stop us being accepted by the Lord. Only in Christ can we have acceptance by God. 5. Jesus, the Pharisee and the woman! (Luke 7:36-50) Question 5. The Pharisee in the final episode of this chapter (v 36–50) is clearly much more concerned with things and ideas. The woman is only concerned with people. What can we learn from these two stories? It is important to remember that some people are very concerned with people but some (a smaller number), find their interest is taken more by ideas and things than people. Both sorts of people are necessary in a healthy church and a healthy society. Conclusion Question 6. In what ways has this chapter stressed faithfulness? Nearly all this chapter (and the next) is about people acting out their faith as a result of what they saw Jesus do. They were in a very positive way following him, not just thinking about him. That is faithfulness. The message to us must be that we have to follow Jesus, not just go to church on Sunday. Tap or click here to save/download this as a MP3 audio file
A lesser known account of Jesus and his compassionate, miraculous power in the lesser known town of Nain gives us a picture worth a thousand words. Tune in and find yourself with the young man, the weeping woman, and the stunned crowd.
NASB 11 Soon afterward Jesus went to a city called Nain; and His disciples were going along with Him, accompanied by a large crowd. 12 Now as He approached the gate of the city, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow; and a sizeable crowd from the city was with her. 13 When the Lord saw her, He felt compassion for her and said to her, “Do not go on weeping.” 14 And He came up and touched the coffin; and the bearers came to a halt. And He said, “Young man, I say to you, arise!” 15 And the dead man sat up and began to speak. And Jesus gave him back to his mother.

Let your stomach be a balloon inflate, deflate. Scripture for Meditation Luke 7 NKJV 11 Now it happened, the day after, that He went into a city called Nain; and many of His disciples went with Him, and a large crowd. 12 And when He came near the gate of the city, behold, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother; and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the city was with her. 13 When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said to her, “Do not weep.” 14 Then He came and touched the open coffin, and those who carried him stood still. And He said, “Young man, I say to you, arise.” 15 So he who was dead sat up and began to speak. And He presented him to his mother. NASB 11 Soon afterward Jesus went to a city called Nain; and His disciples were going along with Him, accompanied by a large crowd. 12 Now as He approached the gate of the city, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow; and a sizeable crowd from the city was with her. 13 When the Lord saw her, He felt compassion for her and said to her, “Do not go on weeping.” 14 And He came up and touched the coffin; and the bearers came to a halt. And He said, “Young man, I say to you, arise!” 15 And the dead man sat up and began to speak. And Jesus gave him back to his mother. Meditation on Scripture: When I first read this scripture in the past I was impressed by the power Jesus demonstrated over death. It is clear that Luke was intending to highlight Jesus' power over death and how that impacted the people. They responded with fear and then turned to glorify God. This is the natural response to God's power. It wasn't until I was reflecting on why this story was written. It is a very short account of what happened. No details except that of a desperate mother. Jesus could have demonstrated His power by moving the mount of Olives or some other visible feat. He chose to save a Mother. At this time of the year we celebrate mother's day. We can be tempted to think of glorious successes. Perhaps this sets a challenging unrealistic standard for family relationships. This account from Luke demonstrates a family in agony. It demonstrates a family breaking, being separated by death, and in this time the prospect of a childless mother with nobody to care for her and protect her. Many times in our lives it seems like this can be just an appropriate reflection of Mother's day also. A mother in desperation before the Lord when her family seemed to be deteriorating. Aside from the miracle the only response Jesus showed was that He felt compassion. As you struggle in life and things inevitably do not go your way, remember the widow of Nain. When you feel broken or that your hope is fading remember that Jesus demonstrated compassion on this nameless mother. He calmed her weeping, then solved her problems with His touch. I hope and pray that each of us can trust Jesus enough to look to the way in which he chooses to heal us and our relationships. Many times it is not in the method we hope for or suspect, but he does it with compassion. Look to Jesus for healing and know that as your reach out to God wrapped in the blanket of His grace, that he can heal all. In Him you are enough and will be forever more. Meditation of Prayer: Pray as directed by the Spirit. Dedicate these moments to the patient waiting, when you feel ready ask God for understanding you desire from Him. Meditation of God and His Glory / Hesychasm: I invite you to sit in silence feeling patient for your own faults and trials.

Experience the land, culture, and customs surrounding the Bible’s most compelling stories with geographer Dr. Jack Beck in all-new episodes of The Holy Land. Jack Beck (PhD) is the host of the fourth and final season of the 10-episode docu-series The Holy Land: Connecting the Land with Its Stories. Jack helps us understand the land and culture of the bible, so that our reading of the stories are transformed, and our faith is deepened! Jack shares how the green pastures of Psalm 23 weren’t green at all. The sheep were absolutely dependent on the shepherd to lead them to the hiding tufts of grass. Showing us just how dependent we are on the Good Shepherd! Jack shows why Jesus was compelled to go through Samaria to talk with the Samaritan woman at the well. He did it in that exact moment in time to fulfill a 2000 year old promise. What promise was that?? We see that Jesus went to Nain to raise a child from the dead to accomplish an identical miracle that happened in the same place over 1000 years before that. So that the people could begin to understand Jesus’ true identity. Finally Jack shows us that Jesus followed the same path as David when David’s life was threatened. For David he fled past Gethsemane into the safe Judean wilderness. Jesus could have taken that same path to safety. But he chose not to. Why? Also in this episode, Perry shares, “In my early journey with Jesus when I’d fail, I thought, ‘I’ll never change.’ But I don’t believe that anymore. Because I understand something powerful now that I didn’t then.” As Shawna read the story of Jesus’ resurrection it stood out to her that Mary was with Jesus in the garden, and she didn’t know it. And the disciples on the road to Emmaus walked with Jesus and they didn’t know it was him. It made her wonder, “Lord, are there times that you have been right here, and I didn’t know it?”Donate to Moody Radio: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/morningshow/wgnbSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
She thought her son's story was over as she lead the funeral procession but Jesus was preparing to write another chapter. We are talking today about the Widow of Nain's story and the reminders there are for us today.www.sitstillmydaughter.com
Luke 7:11-16 ESV 11 Soon afterward he went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a great crowd went with him. 12 As he drew near to the gate of the town, behold, a man who had died was being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow, and a considerable crowd from the town was with her. 13 And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her and said to her, “Do not weep.” 14 Then he came up and touched the bier, and the bearers stood still. And he said, “Young man, I say to you, arise.” 15 And the dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him to his mother. 16 Fear seized them all, and they glorified God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us!” and “God has visited his people!”
The message is a heartfelt and inspiring sermon focused on the compassion, power, and presence of Jesus, reflecting on the transformative story in Luke 7, where Jesus raises a widow's son from the dead, emphasizing how Jesus sees us in our pain, is moved with deep compassion, and has authority over death itself. Through personal stories and biblical insights, the message highlights how Jesus doesn't just offer miracles but also sustains us through our suffering. It calls listeners to respond in three ways: to "rise up" and make Jesus Lord, to "sit up" and live differently as temples of the Holy Spirit, and to "speak up" by sharing the good news boldly. Ultimately, the sermon centers on the unchanging love and compassion of Jesus, urging everyone to receive new life through Him.

Luke 7:11-16 ESV 11 Soon afterward he went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a great crowd went with him. 12 As he drew near to the gate of the town, behold, a man who had died was being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow, and a considerable crowd from the town was with her. 13 And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her and said to her, “Do not weep.” 14 Then he came up and touched the bier, and the bearers stood still. And he said, “Young man, I say to you, arise.” 15 And the dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him to his mother. 16 Fear seized them all, and they glorified God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us!” and “God has visited his people!”

1) Challenging Traditional Interpretations: The video directly addresses the common theological arguments that Jesus's ability to forgive sins and raise the dead proves his divinity. It presents counterarguments, suggesting that these actions do not necessarily equate to Godhood, as similar actions are attributed to other figures in both the Old and New Testaments. 2) Forgiveness of Sins: The presenter analyzes biblical passages where Jesus forgives sins, and then compares those passages to Old testament passages where priests atone for sins. It explores the concept of authority granted by God, arguing that Jesus's ability to forgive sins was given to him, and then that Jesus gave that authority to the apostles. The video then dives into the concept of Divine Sophia, and how Sophia is described as saving people from sin in the book of wisdom. 3) Resurrection and Divine Power: The video examines instances where Jesus raises people from the dead, such as the raising of the young man in Nain and Lazarus. It draws parallels with Old Testament figures like Elijah and Elisha, who also performed resurrections. The video also discusses the apostles Peter and Paul, who also raised people from the dead. The presenter argues that if raising the dead is proof of Godhood, then these other biblical figures would also have to be considered divine. 4) Divine Sophia and Jesus's Attributes: The video connects Jesus's attributes, such as being "the way, the truth, and the life" and "the light of the world," to the concept of Divine Sophia. It cites passages from wisdom literature that describe Sophia as the source of life, light, and immortality. The presenter makes the argument that the listeners of Jesus's time, would have related his descriptions of himself, to the previously established descriptions of Sophia. 5) Spiritual Interpretation of Biblical Events: The video offers a spiritual interpretation of events like the Israelites' passage through the Red Sea, viewing them as symbolic rather than purely literal. The presenter discusses the passage in 1 Corinthians where it states that the rock that followed the Israelites was Christ. 6) The Role of Intercessors: The video discusses the role of intercessors, such as priests and apostles, in mediating between God and humanity. It argues that these figures act with authority granted by God, rather than possessing inherent divinity.Sections: 1:14 Forgiving Sins - Salvation12:28 “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life”18:03 Jesus and the Holy Spirit21:28 Resurrecting Others and God-Evidence32:05 General Concepts41:33 The Feast and the Peculiar Food56:37 Eternal and Yet Created1:01:44 SummaryDownload MP3 and PDF: https://tinyurl.com/5bks9hn3 Links: Podcast (apple): https://goo.gl/CM4TmV Podcast (android): https://goo.gl/ovLmps Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/bridgingbeliefs Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BridgingBeliefs9 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bridgingbeliefs9/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/BridgingBeliefs The Official Bahá'í site: http://www.bahai.org/ No videos on this channel are monetized nor are for commercial purposes.Support the show
In this episode, we sit down with Nainsingh Mahar, the Former president of Nepal Student Union, to discuss the role of student unions in Nepal and their impact on the education system, employment, and political landscape. With the Nepal Student Union elections recently in focus, we explore whether these student unions are necessary, how they influence budget allocations, and if they truly represent students' interests or are just a political power tool. Nainsingh Mahar shares insights into the history of student unions in Nepal, their political affiliations, and the challenges in Nepal's education system. He also addresses much-needed education reforms in Nepal, discussing how political influence affects higher education and employment opportunities. We dive deep into Nepali Congress leadership, the reforms needed within the party, and how student activism has shaped Nepal's political scenario. Additionally, we tackle hot topics like the Royalist Movement in Nepal, the idea of a directly elected prime minister, and the future of Nepal's political system. If you're interested in Nepal's political future, student activism, and education policies, this conversation is a must-watch!

Jesus interrupted the death of the widow of Nain's son. He does the same thing for you. Will it be a jarring interruption, like a YouTube ad? In a sense. But He promised it's coming so we can anticipate the interruption be ready for it. This is Rev. Bramwell's sermon on Luke 7:11-17 for the Wednesday of the Fourth Week of Lent, 2025.
Have you ever felt overlooked, broken, or beyond restoration? In this powerful sermon, we dive into Luke 7:11-23, where Jesus interrupts a funeral procession in the city of Nain and raises a widow's only son from the dead. This miraculous moment reveals the heart of Christ—His compassion, His divine authority, and His power to restore what seems lost.
Flashback Episode: Year in Luke – Episode 13: When Luke describes a visit to the small town of Nain, we discover Jesus likely went there at that exact moment in order to help someone who was hurting. Discover how this miracle reflects God’s love and what God would ultimately face as Jesus died on the cross!

This Sunday, join us as we consider how our faith is one that breaks barriers. Barriers can often define our lives, but faith has the power to break through. From the bustling streets of Mong Kok to the serene hills of Lantau, we're called to be prophets of hope and agents of change. Let us, together, have our faith inspire action and bring light to dark places. Just as Jesus broke barriers in his time, we too can break down walls of division in our city. Let's be the change we want to see, spreading love and compassion to all corners of Hong Kong. If you are new to Community Church, WELCOME! We would love to get to know you.

As he approached the town gate, a dead person was being carried out—the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the town was with her. When the Lord saw her, his heart went out to her and he said, “Don't cry.” Then he went up and touched the bier they were carrying him on, and the bearers stood still. He said, “Young man, I say to you, get up!” The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother. They were all filled with awe and praised God. “A great prophet has appeared among us,” they said. “God has come to help his people.” This news about Jesus spread throughout Judea and the surrounding country.

As the 2025 Kickstarter draws to a close (there's still time to back!) we're looking ahead at one of the major projects we have coming this year - Dawn of The Dogman. But not that, because it's not out yet! Instead Mark, Heather and Seth are talking about the some of the other Monsters of Michigan. Back the 2025 Kickstarter Campaign email Monsteropolis@smalltownmonsters.com BONUS: - Aaron's Unedited Producer Notes: Monsteropolis Monsters of Michigan WELCOME BACK KICKSTARTER is still running. Last episode before the campaign ends. To keep the excitement going we're talking about one of our upcoming projects - DAWN OF THE DOGMAN, but not THAT, because that's what the movie is, and you can't see it yet. Instead we're looking at the OTHER Monsters of Michigan. At least a few of them. There might be more. Wendigo – cannibalistic humanoid monster. Strong association with winter and extreme cold. Comes from native legends. Has gained a lot of popularity in the modern era, frequently placed alongside other cryptids, but very much its own Native legend. Comes from the Algonquin language/dialect spoken by tribes like Ojibwe, Kree and Saulteaux. You can kill a Wendigo by putting hot tallow down its throat, which melts its icy heart and kills it. Otherwise they're pretty much invincible. At least in some legends. Like a lot of native lore/older legends, as the Wendigo has become more popular it's been adapted as a storytelling motif. A lot of horror/narrative podcasts use it as the “monster of the week,” the video game Until Dawn features the Wendigo as it's primary antagonist (the special edition or secret ending bonus or whatever for that game has Chad Lewis in it talking about the Wendigo) Loup Garou - You'll have to wait for Dawn of The Dogman. Dogman and Loup Garou aren't exactly the same thing (Rougarou also) and if we wanted to we could get in the weeds and pinpoint differences between what we consider the modern “Dogman” phenomenon and the Loup Garoux vis a vis the term's roots in France but nah, we savin' that. Sasquatch - The BFRO lists 225 sightings for Michigan, and those are just the ones that made the cut. I don't really know what else to say about this. Michigan is big and cold and there's woods, so like, Bigfoot can hide there. Hey, here's a cool Class A report from the BFRO! Spring of 1999, near Copemish/Thompsonville “I was walking in the woods down a two track by Thompsonville in the early spring morning. On these early morning walks I often scare up deer and occationally a bear so when I heard the noises of something running in the woods I expected to see some such animal. Instead I saw what looked to me like a large man dressed in white running at an incredible speed. He was about 50 yards away and I tracked him for some distance. I was amazed at how he ran so fast through the dense undergrowth. He had to have long legs to be able to traverse the fallen trees and swampy areas. The next day I was walking in that same area and discovered tracks that confirmed to me it was not a man I had seen. They were quite large - about 18 inches or so. I could only see three toe prints thought there may have been more that didnt inprint and what may have been claws or long toenails that left a mark. The distance between them was about three of my strides long.” Pressie - five bucks you already know what this is. That's right baby, a WATER MONSTER, ERRBODY got a water monster these days. ERRBODY also be stealing Nessie's alliteration. What happened to originality. Just kidding, no really though I don't like this trend, kind of glad it's died off, anyway PRESSIE is, Supposed to be whale tailed and horse headed and have whiskers. Sort of sounds like a big manatee. It hangs out in Lake Superior. Lots of water there, plenty of places to hide. Very good monster place. Is Pressie a manatee? Must investigate. Probably not. It's supposed to be 75 feet long. First spotted in 1894! Wow. From there it jumps to 1977 with a few sightings in between, and conjecture over rumors of sightings in “the 1990s” Named for Presque Isle River where it has frequently been seen. Nain Rouge - bon nuit, The Red Dwarf AKA Red Man AKA Little Red Man. I did a House of Monsters on this guy. He's a favorite. Said to be a harbinger of bad luck and ill fortune Shows up before something bad happens Ya'll know Detroit be real french? City was founded by Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac in the 1700s. ONE DAY this guy is on a stroll with his wife, when suddenly a TINY RED MAN jumps out of the bushes. Antoine yelled at the tiny man and hit him with his cane, after which he was CURSED. He eventually lost his fortune and died in poverty. The Nain has been blamed for a number of tragedies over the years, though whether he's supposed to be causing them or is just showing up to give people a warning seems to be a matter of interpretation. 1763 - The Battle of Bloody Run - 60 british soldiers are massacred by Native inhabitants (OH BUT OF COURSE this had nothing to do with the European settlers encroaching upon land and devastating their populations, sure, totally unprovoked, blame the nain, sorry feeling fighty today, been binging Cobra Kai) The great fire of 1805 - Massive city wide fire, destroyed nearly the entire thing. Massive loss of life and property. In the wake of the fire the city's flag was changed to include the phrase “Speramus meliora; resurget cineribus,” which means “We hope for better things; it will arise from the ashes.” Man I get chills every time, that's inspiring. 1967 - The 12th Street Riot - one of the deadliest examples of civil unrest in the United States at that time. Precipitated by a number of onerous conditions, such as racial segregation and over-policing, the riot would result in 43 deaths, nearly 1200 injuries and over 700 arrests. It went on for five days. 1976 - a huge blizzard knocked out and crippled much of the city's infrastructure And other tragic events throughout the years. The city would eventually embrace the Nain as a local symbol, holding an annual parade where they chase the Nain out of the city to usher out the bad luck. Fun fact, there's an OLDER story about Napoleon taking advice from a Little Red Man who advised him on battle tactics. He only lost when he didn't listen. He's supposed to have met the guy in an ancient egyptian tomb before declaring himself Emperor of France. PRODUCER'S NOTE - I'm very much of the opinion that the Nain Rouge is a direct folkloric descendent of Napoleon's little red man, not literally but like, there's clearly a lineage there. Giant Green Squirrel of Amble: “It is literally just a very large, green squirrel.” - Reddit Okay so. I guess this is a squirrel the size of a cow or a small car. It makes a lot of loud chirping and squeaking noises, and it's also green There, uh... There doesn't seem to be a lot more to this. Or anything else. I like it though, let's make a movie about it. https://99wfmk.com/monster-squirrel-amble/ Okay also though, there are apparently giant squirrel legends present in some native cultures in Nova Scotia (The Micmac Tribe) - some researchers believe these were derived from stories about giant ground sloths, which were (are?) a thing. So there is some background to this one. No idea if theres a direct link to the Michigan one. There are OTHER weird Michigan monsters, but because the movie doesn't come out for a bit we're gonna save ‘em. Thank you for listening, and be sure to go back the Kickstarter RIGHT NAAAOOO - Link in the show notes. There are only four days left (counting today at time of air), and then a brief window for late backing with much higher rates due to kickstarter specific policies beyond our control.

Today, I have basically one point that I would like to emphasize. From this passage before us in Luke 9, and from my other experiences in life, I am convinced that one of the greatest dangers we will face in following Christ as His disciples is pride. After following and being with the Lord Jesus for now over three years the disciples are arguing and disputing with one another over “which of them would be the greatest”. Can you imagine how this must have grieved the Lord Jesus as He “perceived the thought of their heart”. For the past three years the disciples have been with Jesus as He as preformed many miracles. He fed the five thousand men and their families with only five loaves of bread and two small fish. He cast demons out of people, setting them free from their bondage. He heals the lepers, He raised the dead boy at Nain, and He gave sight to the blind. Over and over Jesus showed great love and compassion for the individual. He took time for the woman who touched the hem of His garment while the crowd was thronging Him. He crossed a stormy sea to go the other side and set one maniac Gentile man free from the possession of a “legion” of demons. Every day the disciples experienced up close His miraculous power to heal poor people and cast out demons. Every day they saw His love and compassion for everyone! But most of all, they must have seen and noticed the humility of Jesus. They had proclaimed that they believed that He was the Promised Messiah of the Old Testament. That He was the Christ, the Son of God! They heard Jesus' messages on love and forgiveness! They watched Him respond to rejection at His hometown, and from the scorn of the religious leaders in every place they went. In every situation Jesus portrayed His humility as a servant to everyone He ministered too. But now, instead of being humble like Jesus, they individually are seeking to be in a position of greatness or authority over all the other disciples. They are not only “disputing” verbally with each other about this subject, but their inward attitudes that caused this conflict was one of pride. “Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart.” Their hearts were full of pride! But before we get too critical of them, can you imagine what it must have been like to be a poor, nobody, fisherman, or despised tax collector, and you have been chosen specially by Jesus to be with Him every day as He ministered and performed His miracles? I think it would have been very difficult not to experience a spirit of pride that I was so honored by Jesus Himself to have this privilege and position as His disciple. Goodness, three of them had just seen Moses and Elijah and the glorious transfiguration of Jesus on the mountain! Shortly after they got back home to Capernaum, the Lord decided to deal with their disputes. According to Mark's account, they were in a house when Jesus took a child and set the child alongside Him. The Lord set these big burley men in contrast with the young child, prattling about little concerns. Then He said, "Whoever receives this little child in My name receives Me; and whoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me. For he who is least among you all will be great." (9:48). We are to love, help, and protect children, who are the very symbol of all who are weak, helpless, and dependent. In doing so, we serve Him and, by extension, His Father as well. So much for their boasts as to which of them would wear the brightest crown! Remember “the pride of our heart will always deceive us” into thinking we are better than we really are. (Obadiah 1:3). No doubt, our greatest danger in experiencing the wonderful and miraculous blessings of the Lord Jesus will be pride! We should all be very careful! God bless!
Fr. Spitzer and Doug discuss how the use of specific identifiable people or places, like Pontius Pilate or the city of Nain, help prove the historical accuracy of the Gospels.
