There is no shortage of stories of heroism attached to the terror attacks on September 11th, 2001, with the brave tales of police and firefighters who ran towards the danger to help save lives. There are also stories of everyday people not normally tasked with dealing with disasters or in this case, a terror attack, who went above and beyond to help anyone they could. FOX's Tonya J. Powers spoke with Peter Bitwinski, former Port Authority employee, during the yearly memorial service, who became a hero that day by just being concerned of his co-worker's safety, and shares his story with us.

This week, co-host Mathilda brings you a report from Tunisia, just before she sets sail on the Global Sumud Flotilla. Ordinary people have made extraordinary sacrifices to make the journey toward Gaza, and establish a humanitarian corridor to get much needed aid into Palestine. Some people have left young children behind, others have risked their livelihoods to make the journey possible. But they stand firm in the belief that humanity and solidarity are their most important values. Media Storm brings you the voices missing from the mainstream: activists from the Global South, and ordinary civilians who believe there is nothing more important than solidarity with Gaza right now. We also hear from Greta Thunberg, and grandson of Nelson Mandela, Mandla Mandela. The episode is hosted by Mathilda Mallinson (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@mathildamall⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) and edited by Helena Wadia (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@helenawadia⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠)  The music is by⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ @soundofsamfire⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow us on⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠,⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ TikTok ⁠⁠ Support us on⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

This sermon reflects on how modern wealth, convenience, and independence have shaped us to expect comfort and repayment, leaving little room for humility or mercy. Jesus' teaching in Luke 14 exposes our “Pharisee problem”: we grasp for the best seats and avoid the poor, crippled, lame, and blind because they cannot repay us—and because they remind us of our own dependence. Pride blinds us to God's generosity, but the truth is that we are the broken ones who cannot repay. The good news is that Jesus Himself took the lowest seat on the cross—mocked, beaten, and cast out—so that we might be raised up and seated at His eternal banquet. At His table, honor is given not to the proud but to the humble and dependent. Because we have been welcomed by sheer grace, we are freed to welcome others with the same mercy, especially the overlooked and outcast. Our acts of hospitality become a living picture of God's hospitality to us in Christ. In the end, the joy is not in repayment but in hearing the Host's words: “Friend, move up higher.”August 31, 2025

This sermon unpacks Jesus' hard words in Luke 14:26 about “hating” family and even one's own life. It clarifies that in Hebrew idiom, “hate” means “to love less,” so Jesus is calling His followers to detachment—to love Him above all else. Too often, we cling to created things—family, success, wealth, or even our own lives—as if they could bear the weight of being God. When we do, they crack under the pressure, and both they and we suffer. Jesus asks us to “give it up”—to open our hands and hearts by setting down the false gods we cling to, so we are free to receive His love, mercy, and strength. Taking up our cross is not about needless suffering but about learning to rely on Him above all things. When we surrender, He returns our relationships and possessions as true gifts—loved and appreciated, but no longer idols. With simple prayers—“Jesus, give me your eyes to see, your heart to love, your hands to serve”—we learn to place everything in its proper place under Him. Detachment becomes freedom, and the cross becomes life. In Christ, we gain immeasurably more than we ever give up.

Think failure means you're not cut out for leadership? Think again.In this episode, Marie Sonneman—Lieutenant, coach, and host of Ordinary to Badass—shares how failing promotion boards more times than she passed didn't stop her from becoming the only female lieutenant in a department of nearly 700. From almost giving up before her first detective role to rising into leadership, Marie breaks down why failure isn't proof you're unqualified—it's proof you're in the arena.✨ Theme: Resilience Stories & Mindset BreakthroughsWe're talking about the grit it takes to stay in the game, reframing setbacks into stepping stones, and why perseverance matters more than perfection.You'll hear:

Jesus' final words set the tone for everything that follows in the book of Acts. In Acts 1:8, He promises power through the Holy Spirit and calls His followers to be His witnesses. Ordinary people are invited to live lives that point to Him in every place, from the familiar to the farthest ends of the earth.In this message, Pastor Darren unpacks what it truly means to be a witness. It is not about consumer Christianity or simply sharing information. It is about embodying the reality of the risen Christ. Our lives, our communities, and our everyday choices become a testimony that Jesus is alive.This is the mission every Christian is called into: to live empowered by the Spirit, reflect Jesus to the world, and join God's story of renewal.

Can a state make its people forget the dead? Cemeteries have become sites of acute political contestation in the city-state of Singapore. Confronted with high population density and rapid economic growth, the government has ordered the destruction of all but one burial ground, forcing people to exhume their family members. In Necropolitics of the Ordinary: Death and Grieving in Contemporary Singapore (University of Washington Press, 2025), an ethnography of Chinese funeral parlors and cemeteries, anthropologist and trained mortician Dr. Ruth E. Toulson demonstrates this as part of a larger shift to transform a Daoist-infused obsession with ancestors into a sterile, more easily controlled "Protestant" Buddhism. Further, in a context where the dead remain central to family life, forced exhumation tears the social fabric, turning ancestors into ghosts. Using death ritual and grieving as interrogative lenses, Dr. Toulson explores the scope of and resistance to state power over the dead, laying bare the legacies of colonialism and consequences of whirlwind capitalist development. In doing so, she offers a new anthropology of death, one both more personal and politicized. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Some hauntings start with whispers. Hers began at fifteen. Ordinary night, school the next morning, posters on her bedroom wall suddenly fluttering like unseen hands were brushing against them. No windows open. No breeze. Just the sense that something had entered her room. Too terrified to stay, she fled to the family room where her brothers were sleeping. That's when one of them saw it too — a figure in the hallway outside her door. The night ended without sleep, and by morning, the horror deepened: her pet hamster was found headless in its cage. No blood. No skull. No explanation. It should have ended with one house. It didn't. Years later, in a new home, the 3AM wake-ups began. Each time, a Shadow Person stood in the corner of her bedroom, creeping closer with every night. In her apartment at 21, one appeared at the foot of her bed. Thinking it was her husband, she spoke — until she turned and saw him asleep beside her. The figure darted for the door and disappeared mid-stride. Then came the ceramic clown. Bought broken, with no batteries inside, it suddenly began playing “It's a Small World” at full volume in the middle of the night. It wouldn't stop until she tore it apart. Paranormal? Poltergeist? Or something far worse? Encounters escalated. Something lifted her from the bed, a black sheet-like entity hovering above. Her boyfriend saw it too. Another time, a presence crawled into bed and spooned her, pulling her into a suffocating near-death state before she fought her way free. Whispers hissed in her ear. Voices came from empty rooms. Dogs barked at nothing but the walls. The terror wasn't confined to her. Her daughter saw a double of her mother standing in the foyer, minutes before another female silhouette walked through her bedroom doorway. Doors opened and closed by themselves. Shadows loomed. And still the activity came. This isn't just a ghost story. It's decades of unexplainable events: Shadow People, doppelgängers, a haunted clown, and a family marked by the paranormal. A true story that proves sometimes it's not the house that's haunted — it's you.

How will you keep tomorrow holy?

Britain has seen an influx of illegal immigrants from the Islamic Middle East, often without proper background checks. Scandals involving Pakistani immigrants grooming young girls went largely ignored by authorities due to fears of political backlash. Ordinary citizens face harassment for expressing patriotism, even as immigrant communities display cultural or political symbols freely.   Victor Davis Hanson explains that this crisis is part of a larger European problem, and how the social, demographic, and political pressures facing Britain and Europe threaten the stability of their nations on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “They've had a series of controversies and incidents and scandals in which Pakistani illegal immigrants have been grooming young British girls in the sex trades. And this was apparently known to authorities. But they felt that it was politically correct, in the age of DEI and woke, to seriously pursue any legal ramifications, until the public was outraged. “And this is in addition to the beginning of massive demonstrations, on the part of the British, Scottish, Irish, Welsh public, to perceived indifference from the United Kingdom Labour Party to the plight of their own citizens. In other words, they're censoring thought, dissent of British citizens, but not in the same manner they are of illegal aliens. And this translates into some very Orwellian and absurd incidents.”

Tonight on VERITAS, our special guest is Andy Thomas. For more than thirty years, Andy has been a voice for the unexplained. He has spoken to thousands, heard their secrets, and carried their stories into the light. His latest work, Strange: Paranormal Realities in the Everyday World, continues that journey with powerful accounts of encounters people rarely dare to share. Ghosts that step into quiet rooms. Voices that reach across the veil. Lights in the sky that move as if the laws of nature no longer apply. Premonitions that arrive uninvited and prove themselves with chilling accuracy. Ordinary men and women, teachers, soldiers, doctors, parents, people from every walk of life, who would never call themselves mystics, yet found themselves face to face with the extraordinary. Many kept silent for years, until they found someone they could trust. Andy has listened. He has compared their accounts. And he has added his own encounters, moments that changed how he sees the world, and may change how you see it too. Tonight, we step into that hidden space where the strange is not rare but part of everyday life.

Get all set for the Twenty-third Sunday in Ordinary time with Fr. Jonathan MeyerSummaryIn this episode of 'All Set for Sunday', hosts Sock Religious and Father Meyer engage in a lively discussion that covers a range of topics from personal health challenges to deep theological insights. They reflect on scripture readings for the upcoming Sunday mass, explore the concept of discipleship, and discuss the importance of detachment from material possessions. The conversation also touches on practical matters such as financial planning and inheritance, all while maintaining a light-hearted tone with anecdotes and humor. The episode concludes with exciting news about upcoming parish events and community engagement.TakeawaysFather Meyer has been running a 5K every day as a personal challenge.Wisdom is a gift from God that helps us understand His plan.Paul's letters emphasize the importance of love and forgiveness in relationships.Discipleship requires putting God above all else, even family.The concept of spiritual fatherhood is significant in the Catholic faith.Detachment from possessions is essential for spiritual growth.Inheritance discussions can lead to family conflicts if not addressed.Understanding tough teachings in the Gospel can deepen faith.Cross country coaching offers insights into encouragement and community spirit.Upcoming parish events aim to foster community engagement and joy.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Listener Engagement03:32 Father Meyer's 5K Challenge and Health Insights06:33 Scripture Readings and Reflections09:31 Understanding Paul's Message in Philemon12:25 The Call to Discipleship and Detachment15:40 Estate Planning and Generosity18:31 Cross Country Coaching and Community Spirit21:32 Musical Preferences and Parish Events

Most people live and die inside of average—average results, average habits, average standards. In this episode, Trevor Cowley breaks down how your perspective shapes everything: your business, your health, your money, and your life. If “crazy” is what everyone else calls it, that's exactly the level you should aim for. Discipline, discomfort, and long-term perspective are the tools that separate the exceptional from the average.If you are ready to level up personally and professionally, go to joinrbo.com

Do you ever wonder if your help actually matters? You show up, you do what you can, and later your Inner Critic whispers, You didn't make any real difference. But what if you don't have to be the expert, the fixer, or the hero who “saves the day”? In today's conversation, my guest co-host Marisa Terrell and I discuss why your presence, rather than your performance, is often the greatest gift you can give. You'll hear how ordinary presence can calm chaos, restore hope, and reflect God's heart. Consider this episode your permission slip to stop second-guessing and start trusting the quiet power of simply showing up.
