In this episode of Talkin' Hawks with the VandeBergs, Matt and Laura sit down with new Iowa quarterback Mark Gronowski, whose journey from Naperville, Illinois to the Big Ten spotlight is full of resilience, drive, and quiet confidence.Mark shares how growing up in a sports-loving family shaped his competitive mindset—especially with a sister who played college softball and a brother who's a Special Olympics gold medalist. From playing three sports year-round to being under-recruited out of high school, he opens up about the chip on his shoulder that fueled his standout career at South Dakota State and ultimately led him to transfer to Iowa.The conversation explores Mark's leadership style, the lessons learned from his father (a former college quarterback at Drake), and the gratitude he carries for the often-overlooked offensive line. He also reflects on navigating COVID-era football, developing through multi-sport experiences, and why being underestimated might have been the best thing for him.Whether you're curious about Iowa's quarterback future or inspired by stories of perseverance, this episode is a compelling look into one of the Hawkeyes' most anticipated additions.

The book of Jude warns us about the dangers of last days 'scoffers' who follow their own ungodly desires and create division within the church. We're called to build each other up in our most holy faith and pray in the Holy Spirit, emphasizing the crucial role of community in our spiritual growth. The message challenges us to shift from praying out of our heads to praying from our hearts, where the Spirit dwells. As we wait for Christ's return, we're encouraged to be merciful to those who doubt and to 'snatch others from the fire' - a powerful image of rescue and redemption. This ties into the story of Joshua the high priest from Zechariah 3, reminding us that God can cleanse us from our past and position us for greatness, despite the enemy's accusations.

This week we explore Psalm 16, where we're reminded of the unshakeable refuge we have in God. As we delve into David's heartfelt words, we discover the joy of making the Lord our ultimate inheritance. The psalm teaches us to find pleasure in godly people around us, rather than chasing after false gods that only multiply our troubles. We're encouraged to rest in the safety of God's presence, knowing He stands as our defender. This message challenges us to shift our focus from life's worries to the blessings God has given us, cultivating a heart of gratitude. In the end, we shift focus and find Jesus in the heart of the Psalm as well.  Join us for service live every Sunday at 10am at 1852 95th St, Naperville, IL 60564 (The education-wing entrance of Wheatland Salem Church)Connect with us at our website www.revivechicago.church

So, a young caller named Ezra from Naperville, Illinois, jumps on the line and asks: “Um, hi, Mr. Madrid… Did Jesus ever have a last name?” Great question, Ezra! Patrick jumps in with his usual mix of smarts and warmth. Short answer: No, Jesus didn’t have a last name like we do today. Longer answer: Back in Jesus’ time, people were identified by who their dad was or where they were from. So instead of “Jesus Christ” like it’s a last name, He might’ve been called “Jesus bar Joseph” — which literally means “Jesus, son of Joseph.”(Bar means “son of” in Aramaic.)

Today, we delve into the promises of Deuteronomy 28, exploring God's covenant blessings for His people. This passage reminds us that God's blessings are not just for individuals, but for His entire covenant community. We learn that obedience to God isn't about perfection in every minute detail, but about maintaining a faithful relationship with Him. The sermon challenges us to shift our perspective from a transactional view of blessings to understanding the depth of God's covenant love. It encourages us to embrace God's desire for our prosperity and success, reminding us that He wants to bless 'all the work of our hands.' This message invites us to examine our own lives and ask: Are we walking in covenant with God? Are we allowing His blessings to flow through us to others? Let's be inspired to live as people who carry God's blessing wherever we go, trusting in His abundant promises for our lives.

In this exposition of Job chapter 1, we're challenged to reconsider our understanding of God's character and the nature of suffering. The central message revolves around distinguishing between God's actions and those of 'the accuser.' We're reminded that God is not the author of our troubles, but rather the giver of good gifts. This insight invites us to shift our perspective on hardship, recognizing that even in our darkest moments, God is bragging about us in heaven, defending us. The story of Job teaches us to maintain our integrity and to worship God even when life seems unfair. It's a call to deepen our trust in God's goodness, despite circumstances that might tempt us to doubt. As we wrestle with life's challenges, we're encouraged to seek a fresh revelation of God's true nature, moving beyond simplistic interpretations to a more nuanced understanding of His love and sovereignty.

Drawing from 2 Corinthians 6 and 7, we're reminded this week of God's promise to dwell among us and be our Father. But this incredible privilege comes with a responsibility - to purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit. We're called to make a clear distinction between light and darkness, righteousness and wickedness. This isn't about legalism, but about living from a place of promise and relationship with God. The message urges us to root out idols in our hearts, whether it's ourselves, material things, or worldly pursuits. It's a call to live differently, to be separate from the world while still engaging it with God's love. This teaching reminds us that true transformation comes not from guilt or condemnation, but from conviction and the empowerment of God's Spirit.

Centering on 1 Peter 5:5-10, we explore how God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble. The sermon challenges us to examine our hearts and recognize that anxiety often stems from self-centeredness - a subtle form of pride. We're encouraged to 'cast all our anxieties on Him' not as a casual act, but as a deliberate, forceful throwing of our burdens onto God. This imagery of casting heavy fishing nets reminds us of the weight of our struggles and the strength required to truly release them. The message urges us to resist the enemy, who prowls like a roaring lion, by standing firm in faith and remembering we're not alone in our sufferings. Ultimately, we're called to embrace humility, not as self-deprecation, but as a shift of focus from ourselves to God and others, allowing Him to lift us up in due time.

Let's draw from Paul's letter to Timothy who has been pastoring in Ephesus. Specifically in 2 Timothy 1:8-14, we're reminded that as believers, we shouldn't be ashamed of the gospel or of those who suffer for it. The key lesson here is that our worth and calling come not from our own actions, but from God's purpose and grace. This shifts our focus from self-reliance to God-reliance, encouraging us to find strength in Christ rather than in our circumstances. The message parallels our modern struggles with shame and self-doubt to Timothy's potential hesitation in his ministry. It's time we believers recognize that holiness isn't about our perfection, but about being set apart by God. This perspective can revolutionize how we view ourselves and our faith journey, inspiring us to boldly proclaim the gospel despite challenges or personal insecurities.

Almost exactly one year ago, I visited Noon Whistle’s Lombard Brewpub (800 E. Roosevelt) to understand why they were serving cicada-infused Malort. Sure enough, they got me again. Garlic Butterlört has arrived. In the brewery’s promotional copy, it’s described as “bringing big ‘better ingredients, questionable decisions’ energy. Rich, buttery goodness meets roasted garlic and herbs, with that unmistakable bitter kick that says, ‘maybe I do want another slice or just literally anything to get this taste out of my mouth.’ “It’s smooth. It’s garlicky. It’s bold. And yes—it’s the ultimate pizza crust dipper. You’ve had the garlic butter cup... but it's time to grow up little one. Garlic Butterlört is here, and it didn’t come to play. Don't ask for the parm rim.” Obviously, there’s a lot more to talk about when it comes to Noon Whistle after ten years of business, serving both the Naperville and Lombard communities. For this episode, I’m back at Noon Whistle with my spirit animal, Marketing Director Joey Giardiniera, to talk about Noon Whistle’s latest alcoholic chimera and all the other things, specifically: -Noon Whistle's unique beer offerings, including the new collab with the Morton Arboretum. -Connecting with younger demographics as so much of the talk lately is on how 20-somethings aren’t drinking like their elders once did. -Lower ABV: Is it the new battleground? -The amazing food at Noon Whistle, specifically their pizzas. -Events at Noon Whistle: Should I host a music trivia night? ## Looking to transform your home, office, or business into a smart, seamlessly connected space?

In this interview episode of Seeing Them Live, Charles interviews singer BB from BB & The Honey. BB is an American singer and songwriter who has been an integral part of the Chicago music scene for 20 years.  Audiences say her voice is a blend of Brandy Carlisle, Janice Joplin, Patsy Klein, Stevie Nicks, and Amelda May. Her powerful interpretations range from blues, funk, soul, classic country to jazz, rockabilly, and classic rock. BB & the Honey have released a new EP of original songs called Reckless Heart, which is available on all major streaming platforms.BB reminisces about her first concert at age five, seeing Sean Cassidy at Navy Pier in Chicago, and shares memorable concert experiences with Mumford and Sons, contrasting them with a lackluster performance by Bob Dylan she attended in the early 90s. She discusses a formative experience in her music career when she and a friend were invited to join Arise Records after singing 'Amazing Grace' in a Chicago subway. This fortuitous event laid the groundwork for BB's extensive music journey, performing with various bands and writing a wide range of musical genres from blues, funk, soul, classic country, to jazz and rock. The episode also dives into BB's musical projects, from her early involvement with hip hop group Schmoov and the Family to later bands like Super D, The Jesters, and Seeking Wonderland. BB elaborates on how she transitioned into learning the piano during the COVID-19 pandemic, which allowed her to contribute more dynamically to her current band. BB & The Honey recently released a new EP called 'Reckless Heart,' comprising four original songs. The interview touches on the practicalities of their live performances, noting the flexibility in band size depending on the venue. BB delves into the recording process of the EP, aiming to capture the live energy of their performances.

The story of Samuel in 1 Samuel 3 serves as a backdrop, illustrating how the word of the Lord can become rare when we're not attuned to His voice. Are we listening for God, or have we allowed His voice to become rare in our lives? The sermon emphasizes that God is constantly speaking, but we need to tune our spiritual ears to hear Him. Like adjusting a radio dial, we must intentionally tune out the noise of the world and our past to hear God clearly. This message encourages us to say, 'Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening,' and to expect God to communicate with us through His Word, through others, and through the promptings of the Holy Spirit. It's a call to actively engage in our faith, to keep pressing forward, and to trust God's truth over our circumstances.

Summary: In this conversation, Michael interviews Dr. Chris Castaldo, pastor at New Covenant Church in Naperville, Illinois, about his book Why Do Protestants Convert?. Both men share their personal journeys from Roman Catholicism to Protestant Christianity. They delve into the emotional and theological challenges of converting, especially within deeply rooted Catholic families. The conversation centers around the reasons people convert—psychological, theological, and sociological—and discusses the influential figure John Henry Newman, a 19th-century Anglican-turned-Catholic who emphasized sacramentalism and church tradition over personal interpretation.  Dr. Castaldo reflects on the problematic yet often romanticized notion that individual believers can interpret Scripture without broader historical or theological grounding. Michael and Chris examine how conversion decisions are often influenced by a longing for deeper liturgy, structure, or historical continuity—elements people feel are missing in certain evangelical contexts. They also critique the idea that the Catholic Church alone has interpretive authority over Scripture, arguing instead for the clarity and sufficiency of God's Word for all believers. With grace and candor, they discuss how to lovingly approach conversations with Catholic friends and family, encouraging a posture of understanding, truth, and patient dialogue. Takeaways: Conversion is emotionally complex. Balancing church authority and personal reading of Scripture is a core tension. The search for spiritual father figures often drives people toward structured traditions. The Christian life, especially amid change, must be anchored in grace. Cultural shifts drive spiritual searching. Rituals like the Lord's Supper require reverent understanding, not routine. LINKS MENTIONED: Why Do Protestants Convert?

This week, let's dive into 1 Peter 2:9-12, where we'll explore what it means to be a 'royal priesthood' and a 'holy nation.' This isn't about individual selection, but rather our collective calling as the Church. We're reminded that we're foreigners in this world, called to live distinctly different lives. Just as the Israelites were called out of Egypt, we're called out of darkness into God's marvelous light. This parallel invites us to consider: How are we declaring God's praises and living as citizens of heaven? We must begin to recognize the war against our souls and to actively abstain from sinful desires. It's a call to discomfort, to stand out in a world that often pushes us to conform. As we embrace this identity, we're challenged to live in such a way that even those who oppose us will see our good deeds and ultimately glorify God.

There's lot's of do's and don'ts in the Bible. How about this one: Don't quench the Holy Spirit's fire. Our key scripture, 1 Thessalonians 5:19-28, reminds us to test everything, hold onto what is good, and avoid evil. We're called to embrace prophecy without contempt, understanding that it's not just about foretelling the future, but also 'forth-telling' - declaring God's truth in the present. This message parallels the process of tending a fire with nurturing our spiritual lives, emphasizing that we are the 'logs' that keep the flame burning. As we journey in faith, we're encouraged to let go of past mistakes and hold onto the good, trusting in God's faithfulness to sanctify us completely - spirit, soul, and body. This teaching is deeply relevant to our daily walk, inspiring us to speak life and truth, even in small ways, to those around us, and to stand firm against life's challenges with the power of God's Word.
