Podcasts about nineteenth sunday after pentecost

This week in our Jude series, we turn our attention to one of the strangest stories that Jude references - Michael the Archangel fighting the devil over the possession of the body of Moses. Listen as we continue to explore this letter and consider what these stories teach us about "contending for the faith once for all delivered to the saints."  Text: Jude 1:8-10

Prayer is wrestling with God. Prayer is training in righteousness. Prayer is both conversation and asking of your loving Father.NINETEENTH SUNDAY AFTER PENTECOST 19 (Proper 24C) (19 October 2025) Genesis 32:22–302 Timothy 3:14–4:5Luke 18:1–8

In today's gospel, Jesus told a parable about a widow and an unjust judge. The judge had power but neither feared God nor respected people. The widow, by contrast, had no standing, no wealth, and no influence—only her voice. Yet she kept coming, again and again, to demand justice until the judge finally gave in—not because he was good or compassionate, but because she refused to disappear...

Genesis 18:20-33; Psalm 7:1-11; 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11; Matthew 10:26-33

 1 And Jesus answering, spoke again in parables to them, saying:Et respondens Jesus, dixit iterum in parabolis eis, dicens : 2 The kingdom of heaven is likened to a king, who made a marriage for his son.Simile factum est regnum caelorum homini regi, qui fecit nuptias filio suo. 3 And he sent his servants, to call them that were invited to the marriage; and they would not come.Et misit servos suos vocare invitatos ad nuptias, et nolebant venire. 4 Again he sent other servants, saying: Tell them that were invited, Behold, I have prepared my dinner; my calves and fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come ye to the marriage.Iterum misit alios servos, dicens : Dicite invitatis : Ecce prandium meum paravi, tauri mei et altilia occisa sunt, et omnia parata : venite ad nuptias. 5 But they neglected, and went their own ways, one to his farm, and another to his merchandise.Illi autem neglexerunt : et abierunt, alius in villam suam, alius vero ad negotiationem suam : 6 And the rest laid hands on his servants, and having treated them contumeliously, put them to death.reliqui vero tenuerunt servos ejus, et contumeliis affectos occiderunt. 7 But when the king had heard of it, he was angry, and sending his armies, he destroyed those murderers, and burnt their city.Rex autem cum audisset, iratus est : et missis exercitibus suis, perdidit homicidas illos, et civitatem illorum succendit. 8 Then he saith to his servants: The marriage indeed is ready; but they that were invited were not worthy.Tunc ait servis suis : Nuptiae quidem paratae sunt, sed qui invitati erant, non fuerunt digni : 9 Go ye therefore into the highways; and as many as you shall find, call to the marriage.ite ergo ad exitus viarum, et quoscumque inveneritis, vocate ad nuptias. 10 And his servants going forth into the ways, gathered together all that they found, both bad and good: and the marriage was filled with guests.Et egressi servi ejus in vias, congregaverunt omnes quos invenerunt, malos et bonos : et impletae sunt nuptiae discumbentium. 11 And the king went in to see the guests: and he saw there a man who had not on a wedding garment.Intravit autem rex ut viderent discumbentes, et vidit ibi hominem non vestitum veste nuptiali. 12 And he saith to him: Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? But he was silent.Et ait illi : Amice, quomodo huc intrasti non habens vestem nuptialem? At ille obmutavit. 13 Then the king said to the waiters: Bind his hands and feet, and cast him into the exterior darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.Tunc dicit rex ministris : Ligatis manibus et pedibus ejus, mittite eum in tenebras exteriores : ibi erit fletus et stridor dentium. 14 For many are called, but few are chosen.Multi enim sunt vocati, pauci vero electi.Parable of the marriage guests. All men are called to the heavenly beatific union, but few are chosen: those who wear the nuptial robe of baptism and of the state of grace.

We're continuing our series on the values and practices of Servants, with Fr. David Trautman teaching on communing.

David helps us understand that we hold all things in common as the early Church did.If you like what you hear, we hope you'll join us in person if you're in the area.

October 19, 2025Today's Reading: Luke 18:1-8Daily Lectionary: Deuteronomy 18:1-22; Matthew 14:22-36“[Jesus said,] ‘Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on Earth?'” (Luke 18:8)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. Jesus is giving you the Gift of prayer by presenting to you a judge who is so ridiculously bad that no reasonable person would waste time asking a favor of this judge. This judge neither fears God nor respects any man. He couldn't care less about protecting the innocent, caring only for his own convenience and well-being—an unrighteous judge.Pray, says Jesus, like an emptied widow petitioning this judge until the judge finally gives up and says, “I'll give her justice, so that she will not beat me down with her continual coming.” (Luke 18:7)Is Jesus calling his own Father an unrighteous judge? That, of course, is not the point of comparison. In the parable's last verse, Jesus presses the point He is making for us: “When the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on Earth.” (Luke 18:8) We live either by faith or by the Law. We're justified by faith or by works of the Law. As Paul reminds us, no one is justified by the Law (Romans 3:19-20); rather, the sinner is justified by faith (Romans 5:1-2).The Pharisees and Teachers of the Law taught how to come before God with something to give him and how to live by the Law. Jesus rescues us from their school of Law, standing us before His Father in his own righteousness. Since the Law always accuses, anyone arguing their righteousness by the Law already stands condemned! So, how do we stand before the Father? Come to the Judge as a sinner, as an emptied-out widow. Stand before the Judge expecting a thoroughly ridiculous judgment: that the one who has nothing, who deserves nothing, that one God declares most blessed of all. Stand before your Lord holding nothing but the Gospel promise. Faith clings to the promise. Faith can't help but pray. After all, the person justifying himself by the Law doesn't need to pray. Why pray if you're sanctifying yourself by your own works? You're already in good shape, so there is no need for pleading. But knowing that no person can justify himself, we can finally see that the one who lives by the Law dies by the Law. So life comes as Gift! The sinner, standing before God with no righteousness earned, now lives by faith in the righteousness of Christ Jesus, faith in the promise, faith that Jesus justifies the sinner by the Word of grace. And faith prays. In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Almighty and eternal Lord, You command us to pray, and You promise to hear and answer us. Give us Your Holy Spirit, then He can lead and reign in our hearts in everything. Then we can live in true faith, trusting in You. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with the Father and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.Rev. Warren Graff, pastor of Grace Lutheran Church in Albuquerque, NM.Audio Reflections Speaker: Pastor Harrison Goodman is the Executive Director of Mission and Theology for Higher Things.Step back in time to the late Reformation and learn about a divisive yet inspirational figure: Matthias Flacius Illyricus. His contributions to Lutheranism still echo in our teachings today, from the Magdeburg Confession to parts of the Lutheran Confessions.

Amen.Come, let us worship God our King.Come, let us worship Christ, our King and our God.Come, let us worship Christ among us, our King and our God.Holy God,holy and mighty,holy immortal one,have mercy upon us. (3x)Glory be to the + Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,now and always and forever and ever. Amen. From Psalm 51Open my lips, O Lord, *and my mouth shall proclaim your praise.Create in me a clean heart, O God, *and renew a right spirit within me.Cast me not away from your presence *and take not your holy Spirit from me.Give me the joy of your saving help again *and sustain me with your bountiful Spirit.Glory be to the + Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,now and always and forever and ever. Amen. A PsalmPsalm 109Deus, laudemHold not your tongue, O God of my praise; for the mouth of the wicked, the mouth of the deceitful, is opened against me.They speak to me with a lying tongue; they encompass me with hateful words and fight against me without a cause.Despite my love, they accuse me; but as for me, I pray for them.They repay evil for good, and hatred for my love.Set a wicked man against him, and let an accuser stand at his right hand.When he is judged, let him be found guilty, and let his appeal be in vain.Let his days be few, and let another take his office.Let his children be fatherless, and his wife become a widow.Let his children be waifs and beggars; let them be driven from the ruins of their homes.Let the creditor seize everything he has; let strangers plunder his gains.Let there be no one to show him kindness, and none to pity his fatherless children.Let his descendants be destroyed, and his name be blotted out in the next generation.Let the wickedness of his fathers be remembered before the Lord, and his mother's sin not be blotted out;Let their sin be always before the Lord; but let him root out their names from the earth;Because he did not remember to show mercy, but persecuted the poor and needy and sought to kill the brokenhearted.He loved cursing, let it come upon him; he took no delight in blessing, let it depart from him.He put on cursing like a garment, let it soak into his body like water and into his bones like oil;Let it be to him like the cloak which he wraps around himself, and like the belt that he wears continually.Let this be the recompense from the Lord to my accusers, and to those who speak evil against me.But you, O Lord my God, oh, deal with me according to your Name; for your tender mercy's sake, deliver me.For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.I have faded away like a shadow when it lengthens; I am shaken off like a locust.My knees are weak through fasting, and my flesh is wasted and gaunt.I have become a reproach to them; they see and shake their heads.Help me, O Lord my God; save me for your mercy's sake.Let them know that this is your hand, that you, O Lord, have done it.They may curse, but you will bless; let those who rise up against me be put to shame, and your servant will rejoice.Let my accusers be clothed with disgrace and wrap themselves in their shame as in a cloak.I will give great thanks to the Lord with my mouth; in the midst of the multitude will I praise him;Because he stands at the right hand of the needy, to save his life from those who would condemn him. Glory be to the + Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,now and always and forever and ever. Amen. The Readings2 Corinthians 11:31–12:9The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, he who is blessed forever, knows that I am not lying. At Damascus, the governor under King Aretas was guarding the city of Damascus in order to seize me, but I was let down in a basket through a window in the wall and escaped his hands.I must go on boasting. Though there is nothing to be gained by it, I will go on to visions and revelations of the Lord. I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows. And I know that this man was caught up into paradise—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows— and he heard things that cannot be told, which man may not utter. On behalf of this man I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except of my weaknesses— though if I should wish to boast, I would not be a fool, for I would be speaking the truth; but I refrain from it, so that no one may think more of me than he sees in me or hears from me. So to keep me from becoming conceited because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, a thorn was given me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to harass me, to keep me from becoming conceited. Three times I pleaded with the Lord about this, that it should leave me. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.The Word of the LordThanks Be to God Luke 6:31–36And as you wish that others would do to you, do so to them.“If you love those who love you, what benefit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. And if you do good to those who do good to you, what benefit is that to you? For even sinners do the same. And if you lend to those from whom you expect to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, to get back the same amount. But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return, and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, for he is kind to the ungrateful and the evil. Be merciful, even as your Father is merciful.The Word of the LordThanks Be to GodThe Apostles' CreedI believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth;I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead.I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. LitanyTake a moment to gather up all your thoughts, to think through your day, and bring your petitions before God for you and for those you are praying for.(In peace let us pray to the Lord, saying, “Lord, have mercy.”)For peace from on high and for our salvation, let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.For the peace of the whole world, for the welfare of the holy Church of God, and for the unity of all, let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.For our bishops, and for all the clergy and people, let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.For the leaders of the nations, and for all in authority, let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.For our city, for every city and community, and for those who live in them in faith, let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.For good weather, and for abundant harvests for all to share, let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.For those who travel by land, water, or air, for the sick and the suffering, for prisoners and captives, and for their safety, health, and salvation, let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.For our deliverance from all affliction, strife, and need, let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.For the absolution and remission of our sins and offences, let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.For all who have died, let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.Remembering all the saints, we commit ourselves, one another, and our whole life to Christ our God.To you, O Lord.And now as our Savior taught us, we are bold to pray: The Lord's PrayerOur Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen. The Collects of the DayO God, you declare your almighty power chiefly in showing mercy and pity: Grant us the fullness of your grace, that we, running to obtain your promises, may become partakers of your heavenly treasure; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. Lord God, almighty and everlasting Father, you have brought us in safety to this new day: Preserve us with your mighty power, that we may not fall into sin, nor be overcome by adversity; and in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. Closing PrayersA Prayer of St. ChrysostomAlmighty God, you have given us grace at this time with one accord to make our common supplication to you; and you have promised through your well-beloved Son that when two or three are gathered together in his Name you will be in the midst of them: Fulfill now, O Lord, our desires and petitions as may be best for us; granting us in this world knowledge of your truth, and in the age to come life everlasting. Amen. Glory be to the + Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,now and always and forever and ever. Amen.Lord, have mercy! (3x)God, be gracious to us and bless us and shine Your countenance upon us and have mercy on us.This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it!The Father+ is my hope; the Son, my refuge; the Holy Spirit, my protection: All-Holy Trinity, glory to You!Amen!

Mark 9:38-50   John said to Jesus, “Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we tried to stop him, because he was not following us.” But Jesus said, “Do not stop him; for no one who does a deed of power in my name will be able soon afterward to speak evil of me. Whoever is not against us is for us. For truly I tell you, whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because you bear the name of Christ will by no means lose the reward. “If any of you put a stumbling block before one of these little ones who believe in me, it would be better for you if a great millstone were hung around your neck and you were thrown into the sea. If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life maimed than to have two hands and to go to hell, to the unquenchable fire. And if your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life lame than to have two feet and to be thrown into hell. And if your eye causes you to stumble, tear it out; it is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and to be thrown into hell, where their worm never dies, and the fire is never quenched. “For everyone will be salted with fire. Salt is good; but if salt has lost its saltiness, how can you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.”

Lately, there has been a lot of coverage in the news about political factions. But factions appear more than just in the political sphere. Churches, of course, can develop them too. They're equally insidious and difficult to deal with in civic, and public life. So, Jonathan and Seth talk about how these divisions take place. They start small this week; they don't try to tackle the United State's political problems like they sometimes do. We're glad you're with us! For whatever reason, our last episode took off. So, if you're joining us again, we're thrilled you returned. We'd love to hear from you about church divisions and how we can spread out leadership to take some of the burden off of individuals (as Moses does in this week's reading) at noexpertsallowed@gmail.com
