Episode 1782: Derek Sivers explores how saying “yes” to everything can dilute our time and energy, advocating instead for a powerful filter: if it's not a “hell yes,” it's a “no.” This mindset frees us from obligation overload and helps us focus only on what truly excites and aligns with our goals. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://sive.rs/cs Quotes to ponder: "If you're not saying 'HELL YEAH!' about something, say 'no'." "When you say no to most things, you leave room in your life to really throw yourself completely into that rare thing that makes you say 'hell yeah'." "The difference between 'yes' and 'no' is huge."

Friends of the Rosary,Today, August 15, toward the end of the summer season, the Church of Christ celebrates the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, when the faithful proclaim that she was taken up, body and soul, into heaven.It's a Holy Day of Obligation and the oldest feast day of Our Lady.Its origin is in the early days of Jerusalem, when one of the memories about the Blessed Mother centered around the “Tomb of Mary,” close to Mount Zion, where she was buried, and the early Christian community had lived. It's the spot where Mary's “falling asleep.”Mary expired in the presence of the apostles, and when her tomb was opened later, it was found empty, and so the apostles concluded that the body was taken up into the heavenly home.Therefore, from the beginning, there were no relics of Mary to be venerated. That location also soon became a place of pilgrimage, and the “Memory of Mary” was being celebrated. Today, the Benedictine Abbey of the Dormition of Mary stands on the spot.In the seventh century, this feast began to be celebrated in Rome under the title of the “Falling Asleep” (“Dormitio”) of the Mother of God.Later, it was to become our feast of the Assumption.In 1950, Pope Pius XII solemnly proclaimed the dogma of the Assumption, a truth revealed by God, with these words: “The Immaculate Mother of God, the ever-virgin Mary, having completed the course of her earthly life, was assumed body and soul into heaven.”The Assumption looks to eternity and gives us hope that we, too, will follow Our Lady when our life is ended.Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Fr. Patrick Hyde joins Patrick to discuss Assumption of Mary (4:51) what is a Marian Dogma? What does God desire for us? (14:54) Why is the Assumption of Mary so late in being declared? (19:41) Break 1 Lauren - My mother died on that day and right before she died, the whole room was filled with orange blossoms. I knew she came to take my mother. (29:30) Did Mary die before she was assumed? How can we find hope in our own bodies through Mary? (39:20) Break 2 What are Holy days of Obligation? What can people do to celebrate Mary?

Happy Feast Of The Assumption of Mary! We are celebrating today the mystery that Jesus would not allow corruption of the body of the one who carried Him in her womb. To learn more about this great feast and Holy Day of Obligation in the Church, listen to this reflection from Fr. Kubicki.

What do typhoon evacuations, koala selfies, and second breakfast in Hobbiton have in common? They've all been part of Deacon Bob's adventurous month.  After a few weeks apart, Father Dave and Deacon Bob are back, swapping globe-trotting tales, ministry moments, and a surprisingly full slate of sports updates. Bob's recent trip took him from the typhoon-swept Philippines to Singapore, Perth, Sydney, and a bucket-list stop in New Zealand's Hobbiton (yes, complete with hobbit holes, the Green Dragon Inn, and second breakfast).  Along the way, he preached to 90 youth leaders just hours after a typhoon hit, met a koala, saw kangaroos, and even met a listener named Rain who drove five hours just to hear him speak. There were plenty of memorable meals, from perfect pancakes to less-than-crispy bacon.  Meanwhile, Father Dave stayed stateside, baptizing great-nieces (one walked to her own baptism), speaking at the Knights of Columbus Conference, and making a moving visit to the Blessed Stanley Rother Shrine in Oklahoma City. He shares Rother's remarkable story—from failing Latin in seminary, to obeying his bishop's call to return to Guatemala, to his martyrdom in 1981—and the beauty of a shrine built right in the heart of the city it serves.  Sports fans get plenty too: the debut of MLB's first female umpire Jen Pawol (including her Hall of Fame–bound first pitch), Tom Brady's towering new statue, and even a trivia challenge about the University of Michigan making draft history.  Naturally, there are detours, including CGI vs. AI, bad sports statues, and ministry moments that transcended cultural boundaries. But through it all, the heart stays the same: joyfully sharing the Gospel, wherever God sends you (even if it's to a sheep paddock in New Zealand).    Highlighted Sections  (00:00) Sports, Schedules, and Saying Goodbye  The guys open with bittersweet news about the podcast winding down, why recording has gotten harder, and an invitation for listeners to share favorite memories. They then go into the week's light sports slate and review the new Superman. Even with the end in sight, their trademark banter is alive and well.    (05:41) Football, Statues, and Sports Trivia  Deacon Bob previews a Buccaneers-Steelers preseason game while Father Dave looks forward to Steelers training camp. They discuss Tom Brady's towering statue and celebrate Jen Pawol historic debut as MLB's first female umpire. The segment wraps with a trivia challenge about a university making draft history in all four major leagues.    (15:44) From Typhoons to Hobbit Holes  Bob recounts ministry in the Philippines, Perth, and New Zealand, including speaking to youth leaders after a typhoon and connecting with alumni abroad. He describes walking through the Shire set from The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, complete with hobbit holes and the Green Dragon Inn. Jenny may not be a huge fan of the films, but even she found the tour magical.    (23:42) Sydney, Koalas, and the Ends of the Earth  From welcoming bishops to preaching across cultures, Bob reflects on moments when the Holy Spirit's anointing was tangible. He shares encounters with young adults, a koala, and a listener who drove five hours to hear him speak. Each stop reaffirmed the universal joy of sharing the Gospel.    (25:42) Baptisms, Knights, and Blessed Stanley Rother  Father Dave talks about baptizing his great-nieces and representing Franciscan University at the Knights of Columbus Conference. He shares the moving story of Blessed Stanley Rother a missionary priest martyred in Guatemala, and describes visiting the shrine dedicated to him. The witness of Rother's courage and devotion left a lasting impression.    (32:37) Feast Days and a Chapel Blessing  Looking ahead to the Feast of the Assumption they pray for peace amid global tensions. Father Dave previews the blessing of Franciscan University's newly renovated Christ the King Chapel, while Bob outlines upcoming speaking engagements. The conversation closes with anticipation for the start of the school year.    Resources Mentioned  Blessed Stanley Rother Shrine – Learn more about the first American-born martyr  MLB First Female Umpire – Jen Pawol – Read about her historic debut  Hobbiton Movie Set – Explore the filming location of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit  Feast of the Assumption – August 15, a Holy Day of Obligation in the Catholic Church  Christ the King Chapel Renovation – Franciscan University's expanded and renewed chapel  Purposeful Lab – New season started on Faith and Reason 

Caregiving can bury you under the weight of obligation—the “I have to, I should, I must” that breeds resentment and exhaustion. I've lived there. But over the years, I've learned to trade that burden for stewardship—remembering that Gracie belongs to God, not me, and my calling is faithfulness, not fixing. In this episode, I share how that shift in thinking changes everything—and how one short hymn, Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow, has anchored me in the hardest moments. I tell three stories I'll never forget:   Gracie, moments after losing her second leg, singing the Doxology from a gurney. A young man in Ghana, raising newly fitted prosthetic hooks to heaven in praise. A congregation moved to tears when we slowed down and really listened to the words. These moments prove it: good theology always leads to doxology. Even in the fog, we can slow down, take the next right step, and praise Him anywhere.   Get this book today!   https://a.co/d/do1lGW2

Have you ever felt like giving to your church is more of a burden than a joy?You're not alone. For many believers, the offering moment stirs up anxiety instead of worship. 2 Corinthians 9:7 says, “Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”Those words—not reluctantly and not under compulsion—are key. God doesn't want us giving out of guilt. He invites us to give freely, joyfully, and with a heart aligned to His mission.But guilt is a powerful motivator. Perhaps you've felt it—when the plate passes or a giving campaign is launched. Thoughts flood in: “I haven't given enough... I'm letting God down.” That's not generosity born of grace. That's fear. And it contradicts the gospel.The Gospel Sets Us FreeRomans 8:1 declares, “There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.”That includes condemnation over money. Christ's death covers all guilt—financial or otherwise. If we're giving to appease guilt, we're not walking in the freedom Jesus secured.And let's be clear: there's a big difference between guilt and conviction.Guilt says, “You're not good enough.”Conviction says, “Let me lead you to something better.”John 16:8 reminds us that conviction is the Spirit's loving invitation into deeper trust, not shame.Giving From Grace, Not ObligationHere's a test:Guilt says, “I must give, or else.”Grace says, “I get to give—because of all I've received.”Hebrews 9:14 says, “How much more, then, will the blood of Christ…cleanse our consciences…so that we may serve the living God!”When we live under grace, our giving becomes service, not penance. We give because we're loved, not to earn love.Ironically, guilt-fueled giving short-circuits the very transformation generosity is meant to bring. When we give cheerfully, we remember that all we have belongs to God. That reframes us as stewards, not owners—a truth that reshapes us from the inside out.When we give from grace:We declare that Jesus is enough.We reflect our trust in God's provision.We participate in the beauty of Kingdom work.What If Guilt Has Been Shaping Your Giving?Bring it to God – Confess it. Ask Him to renew your heart and reshape your motives.Practice gratitude – Reflect on how God has already provided for you. Gratitude fuels joyful generosity.Ask what joyful giving looks like now – Not compared to others, but based on your own journey with Christ.Because here's the truth: God isn't after your money. He's after your heart. And when He has your heart, generosity will follow—not from guilt, but from grace.You can explore more on giving from the right motivations in the latest issue of Faithful Steward, our quarterly magazine for FaithFi partners.

Still, I'm having a hard time qualifying for life insurance. I do have some coverage through my employer, but it wouldn't be enough to support my wife and four young kids if something happened to me. Are there insurance providers more open to covering cancer survivors that I should look into?I own 10 properties and have been rehabbing them due to damage caused by COVID-19 delays and a flood. My wife is still working, and our personal expenses are much lower than our business costs. I'm trying to figure out when enough is enough. Should I continue fixing up all the properties, or would it be wiser to sell some of them as-is?We're considering taking out a loan of $20,000–$30,000 for home repairs. Our mortgage balance is over $300,000, and my husband is retired. Our lender is only offering a cash-out refinance, but we currently have a great interest rate in the 3% range. What's the best loan option for our situation?We've been debt-free for 20 years, but we recently bought a second home for our adult son with special needs. The house requires more work and furnishings than we initially expected, which is putting a strain on our finances. We've always tithed faithfully—would it be okay to pause our giving temporarily until we're more financially stable?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Legal scholar Annabel Brett explores the idea of “moral possibility”—the boundary between what laws demand and what people can realistically or ethically be expected to do. Drawing from early modern thinkers like Aquinas, Suarez, and Hobbes, Brett shows how moral impossibility has long shaped debates about legal obligation, resistance, and political agency. Commentators Melissa Lane and David Dyzenhaus join the discussion, examining how this concept applies to everything from climate action and military conscription to unjust regimes and democratic norms. Together, they highlight how institutions, customs, and time shape the space between legal duty and human capacity—and why recognizing this gap is vital to both justice and legitimacy.

Romans 1:16-17Here are some of the questions that it answers — this one epistle. What is the good news of God?  Is Jesus really God?  What proves He is God?  Why did He come? What is God like?  How can God send people to hell?  What will happen to people who have never heard the gospel?  Why do men reject God and Christ?  Why are there false religions and idols?  What is man's biggest sin?  Why is there sex perversion, hate, crime and those other things and why are they so rampant?  How can a person who has never head be held responsible?How do we know we're sinners?  How are we justified and forgiven?  What is the importance of Christ's death?  What is the importance of His resurrection?  Where can men find real peace and hope?  What is grace? And what does it do?  1.

Romans 8 is a seminal chapter on the doctrine of salvation, with special emphasis on the security of salvation and having assurance of your salvation. As I quoted when we began this series: "We enter this chapter with no condemnation, we close with no separation, and in between all things work together for good to those that love God." This chapter describes the only two kinds of people in the world: Christians and non-Christians, saved and unsaved, born again and spiritually dead, in the Spirit and in the flesh, set free and enslaved to sin, citizens of the Kingdom of God and citizens of this world, spiritually sighted and spiritually blind, standing in grace and under the Law, justified and condemned, spiritual and natural, destined for heaven and destined for hell, new creatures and still tied to old things, pleasing to God and unable to please God, trusting and scoffing. This next section continues to make the case for assuring you of the security of salvation in Jesus Christ, and it contains the crucial piece of explaining your obligation in light of all that you have in Christ. As it is with every visit we've made to this chapter, you see that it is all tightly connected. Notice the connecting words: So then, for, and for. 1 - You Are Under Obligation (12a) a - The Wrong Way To Live (12b-13a) b - The Right Way To Live (13b) 2 - Show That You Are God's Child (14)

Political theorist Annabel Brett of Cambridge University explores how the concept of “moral possibility” shapes law, politics, and public obligation. She explains that laws must be realistic for people to follow—what is morally possible varies by individual, culture, time, and circumstance. Drawing on early modern Catholic legal theory, Brett discusses how extreme demands (like enduring war or plague) may justify higher expectations, but only temporarily. She examines how colonial Spanish officials misused this framework to justify forced labor in Peru, wrongly claiming it aligned with indigenous customs. Brett contrasts this with more democratic approaches to law, like Domingo de Soto's defense of beggars' rights, which take individuals' real conditions seriously. Ultimately, she shows how moral possibility is deeply tied to time, virtue, and justice. Commentary is provided by David Dyzenhaus of the University of Toronto.

Gaza is strewn with rubble, the war's end is nowhere in sight, and an entirely predictable humanitarian disaster is unfolding. With daily reports of starvation and malnutrition, Israel must provide a systematic and orderly distribution of large amounts of aid to stem the crisis—and stave off a Mad Max situation. Meanwhile, our abdication on USAID has led to human suffering elsewhere in the world, and Trump's supporters still seem more preoccupied with trans people in women's sports and a swimmer who came in 5th place. Plus, Trump's betrayal of the voters who fervently believed he would expose a global pedophile ring, how being gay has evolved into a 'super sin' among evangelicals, and reading the tea leaves on whether Trump is really getting tougher on Putin or if it's just a mood swing.
