hennes hjärta.En: Elin tried to keep her smile bright, but something weighed on her heart.Sv: Elin hade planerat dagen noggrant.En: Elin had planned the day carefully.Sv: De skulle börja med en fika

promenad vände sig Maja om.En: After a while of walking, Maja turned around.Sv: "Elin, du är ovanligt tyst idag," sa hon leende och kommit tillbaka till dem.En: "Elin, you are unusually quiet today,"

Not many people come into the Kingdom because they were sufficiently brow-beaten by someone sharing their faith. Few have surrendered to Christianity simply because they lost a fiery religious debate. The Bible tells us “His kindness leads us to repentance.” God’s love can soften the hardest of hearts. God’s mercy beckons those who’ve lost their way. And coming up today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us learn to put the Lord’s compassion into practice.

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: A New Beginning: Finding Courage at Balaton's Harvest Fest Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2025-09-29-07-38-20-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A nap már alacsonyan járt az égen, mikor a Balaton partján a fesztivál életre kelt.En: The sun hung low in the sky when the festival came to life on the shores of Balaton.Hu: Az őszi színekben pompázó falevelek úgy hullottak a földre, mint az elpergő idő pillanatai.En: The autumn-colored leaves fell to the ground like moments of time passing by.Hu: Az évnek ebben az időszakában a helyi aratófesztivál mindenkit izgalommal töltött el.En: At this time of year, the local harvest festival filled everyone with excitement.Hu: A főutcán sorakozó standok színes forgataga vonzotta a látogatókat, akik finomabbnál finomabb magyar ételeket és kézműves tárgyakat kóstolgattak, keresgéltek.En: The colorful array of stalls lining the main street attracted visitors who sampled exquisite Hungarian dishes and browsed for handcrafted items.Hu: Bence, a kissé visszahúzódó tanító, igyekezett elmerülni a nyüzsgésben, de gondolatai folyton máshol jártak.En: Bence, a somewhat shy teacher, tried to immerse himself in the bustle, but his thoughts constantly wandered elsewhere.Hu: Ott volt mellette Katalin, régi barátja, aki mindig biztatta, hogy merjen nyitni mások felé.En: Beside him was Katalin, an old friend who always encouraged him to open up to others.Hu: Most is vele tartott, hogy segítse őt a félelmei leküzdésében.En: She accompanied him now, too, to help him overcome his fears.Hu: "Próbáld meg ma este, Bence," mondta Katalin bátorítóan, miközben rápillantott egy közeledő, mosolygós lányra.En: "Give it a try tonight, Bence," said Katalin encouragingly, glancing at a smiling girl approaching.Hu: "Nézd, ott van Eszter.En: "Look, there's Eszter."Hu: "Eszter, a vidám és kalandvágyó utazási blogger, most járta először Magyarország e vidékét.En: Eszter, the cheerful and adventurous travel blogger, was visiting this part of Hungary for the first time.Hu: Célja az volt, hogy felfedezze és megörökítse a hagyományok szépségét.En: Her aim was to discover and capture the beauty of traditions.Hu: Könnyed mozdulattal közeledett a tömegben, szemében kíváncsiság tükröződött.En: She moved smoothly through the crowd, with curiosity reflected in her eyes.Hu: Bence szíve gyorsabban vert, de emlékezett Katalin szavaira.En: Bence's heart beat faster, but he remembered Katalin's words.Hu: "Légy őszinte, Bence.En: "Be honest, Bence.Hu: Mesélj neki a kedvenc történeteidről.En: Share your favorite stories with her."Hu: "A fesztivál közepette a hagyományos tánc következett.En: In the midst of the festival, the traditional dance began.Hu: Az emberek egymás kezét fogva kört alakítottak, hogy a népzene ütemére táncoljanak.En: People joined hands to form a circle and danced to the rhythm of folk music.Hu: Bence úgy érezte, ez a pillanat fontos számára.En: Bence felt this moment was important for him.Hu: Összeszedte bátorságát és lassan Eszter mellé lépett.En: He mustered up his courage and slowly stepped next to Eszter.Hu: "Szia, Eszter," kezdte bátortalanul.En: "Hi, Eszter," he started timidly.Hu: "Tudom, hogy szereted a történeteket.En: "I know you love stories.Hu: Szeretném elmesélni, mit jelent nekünk ez a fesztivál.En: I'd like to tell you what this festival means to us."Hu: "Eszter szívélyesen mosolygott.En: Eszter smiled warmly.Hu: "Nagyon örülnék, ha megosztanád velem.En: "I'd love for you to share with me."Hu: "Ahogy beszélgettek, Bence mesélt az aratófesztivál hagyományairól, a szőlővel és borral kapcsolatos szokásokról, és elmondta néhány régi mesét, amely itt, a Balaton partján születtek.En: As they talked, Bence recounted the traditions of the harvest festival, customs related to grapes and wine, and shared some old tales that originated here on the shores of Balaton.Hu: Eszter minden szavát figyelmesen hallgatta, és közben egyre közelebb került hozzá.En: Eszter listened attentively to every word, drawing progressively closer to him.Hu: A tánc végéhez közeledett, de az este varázsa még érezhető volt.En: As the dance neared its end, the magic of the evening was still palpable.Hu: Bence úgy érezte, hogy most másként látja saját magát.En: Bence felt he saw himself differently now.Hu: Merészebb és magabiztosabb lett.En: He was bolder and more confident.Hu: "Örülök, hogy találkoztunk, Bence," mondta Eszter mosolyogva, miközben a zene elhalkult.En: "I'm glad we met, Bence," said Eszter with a smile as the music quieted down.Hu: "Remélem, hogy lesz még alkalmam Magyarországot felfedezni.En: "I hope I'll have more chances to explore Hungary."Hu: ""Mindenképp," válaszolta Bence.En: "Absolutely," replied Bence.Hu: "Mi lenne, ha legközelebb is találkoznánk egy helyi eseményen?En: "How about we meet at another local event next time?Hu: Szívesen bevezetnélek még jobban a tradícióink rejtelmeibe.En: I'd be happy to introduce you further to the secrets of our traditions."Hu: "Eszter bólintott, és ahogy elbúcsúzott, Bence tudta, hogy valami új kezdődött számára.En: Eszter nodded, and as she said goodbye, Bence knew something new had begun for him.Hu: Bátrabban nézett a jövőbe, hiszen Katalin segítségével átlépte korábbi korlátait, és megnyitotta szívét egy új barátság felé.En: He looked to the future more bravely, as Katalin's help had enabled him to overcome previous barriers and open his heart to a new friendship.Hu: Az ősz új színt hozott az életébe, és Bence már várta, hogy a következő szüret mit tartogat majd kettejük számára.En: Autumn brought a new color to his life, and Bence eagerly awaited what the next harvest would hold for the two of them.

Title: The New BeginningSpeaker: Nate HoldridgeOverview: In this teaching from Matthew 1:1–17, Pastor Nate Holdridge opens the Gospel of Matthew by exploring the genealogy of Jesus Christ. Far from a dry list of names, this passage proclaims the arrival of the Promised King and a new beginning for humanity. Pastor Nate highlights how Matthew intentionally connects Jesus to David and Abraham, includes outsiders and the broken in His lineage, and points to the fulfillment of God's promises through the Incarnate King. This sermon encourages us to see Jesus as the one who brings mercy, justice, and hope—not only to Israel but to all nations.Link to Discussion QuestionsLink to Sermon Notes

In this episode, I share why our podcast now carries the name Light of the Way and the story of how this name came to me. Tomorrow we launch our new Substack, also called Light of the Way, and I reflect on how this has been in the making since the March Equinox — Equinox to Equinox, a true new beginning and rebirth. I talk about the weight of identity within a name, and why it is important for the energy of a name to match the energy of what it represents. I share my experience of writing the first Substack post, why it feels like such a beautiful shift away from social media, and how this space is opening a fresh chapter of connection. I also speak about the September Equinox and the deep connection to nature I am feeling right now. Presence is the theme — seeing our spouses, our children, ourselves, and all of life with fresh eyes. From this place of presence, we receive abundant blessings, and I feel immense gratitude for this season. I close with reflections on how this coming month of October is deeply tied to March — eclipse to eclipse, a cycle of blessings unfolding. * * * Subscribe to our Substack: Light of the Way RECEIVE $111 off Quantum Manifestation until August 31st BOOK Journey Home Akashic Records Reading with Faith O'Higgins APPLY for Soul Awakening Mentorship - one space left to begin in October Codes of Destiny Workshop The Orb Method Workshop How to Read the Akashic Records workshop Join us in GUIDED — our living sanctuary of support, weekly Satsangs, monthly Line Activations, workshops, community and more.
