St Paul I [brother: Stephen II] 757-767 Paul II [Pietro Barbo] 1464-1471 Paul III [Alessandro Farnese] 1534-1549 Paul IV [Giovanni Caraffa] 1555-1559 Paul V [Camillo Borghese] 1605-1621 St Paul VI [Giovanni Montini] 1963-1978 St. Paul I: brother to Pope Stephen II and succeeded him--the sort of thing that could happen in the premodern era. This was the era of Pepin the Frank, where the Frankish kingdom had just become the papacy's welcome bulwark against the conquests of the Lombards and the intrigues of the Byzantines, who also wished to take back control of as much of Italy as possible; at the end of the century this would lead to the crowning of Constantine as Western Emperor and the final decline of Byzantine influence, although the Lombard dukes would take longer to diminish in importance. Pope Paul I had a reputation for honor and personal sanctity which were still common in that era. Paul II: elected in the fifteenth century recovery and Roman Renaissance period following the Avignon period and the schism and wild experimental councils that ended it. His uncle was Pope Eugene II and apparently he became a priest after his uncle's election. Paul II was a big spender on building projects (probably still needed at the time), carnivals and festivals, and was a supporter of the arts. However, he also found it necessary to reign in some of the more ardent Renaissance figures of his day and closed something called the Roman Academy for its excesses toward paganism and moral turpitude. He made efforts, building on the conciliar period at the beginning of the century, to bring Russia into communion with Rome and to combat the Turks who had just conquered Constantinople; these big ideas and initiatives were, sadly, not successful. The Ottomans continued expanding for centuries to come and Russia is still very much in schism with Rome. Paul III: An aristocrat of the Farnese family, educated at Rome and Florence; knew Leo X from their youth in Florence. He was a cardinal from age 25 until his election as Pope at age 66, a period embracing the excesses of Popes Alexander and Julius/Julian and the beginning of Luther's disturbances. He was enormously influential between his intellect, education, wealth, time in the Sacred College, and diplomatic skill. Finally he was elected Pope in a time of turmoil, less than 20 years after Luther's 95 theses. By that point he was old and respected and past some questionable periods in his youth. Apparently Paul saw immediately that a new general council was needed to address the outbreak of Protestantism, but his efforts to get one started were thwarted by Holy Roman Emperor Charles V's attempts to hammer out vague agreements that everyone could accept, and even more so by the power politics of the French under Francois I. He wanted the Holy Roman Empire divided and weakened, and did not care if heresy was the means to that end. In that light it is not surprising that he persecuted Protestants harshly within France itself. This became a recurring French policy and would culminate in the Thirty Years' War that devastated and practically ended the Holy Roman Empire as a united country. Pope Paul was not immune to concerns about the excessive power of the Holy Roman Emperors who had mistreated so many of his predecessors, Gregory VII in particular, but in this he may have been short-sighted; his family were traditional Guelphs who supported the Popes politically against the Emperors. In any case Paul III did get the Council of Trent started and, like Pope John XXIII, did see its initial sessions. Against Charles V's desires, they immediately set to work on some of the key issues regarding original sin, justification, and the sacraments. Meanwhile Pope Paul had begun many reforms of the Curia and Church discipline on his own initiative that after his death were taken up by the Council. He supported many of the new religious orders springing up in this era. Many see Paul III as a Pope of towering importance for the history of the Church. Paul IV: Born of a Neapolitan noble family, brought into the Church by his uncle Cardinal Ottavino, but very attracted by the discipline of religious life. He, too, knew Leo X and was sent on diplomatic missions in his pontificate. Cardinal Giovanni, later Paul IV, eventually became a member of the priestly order set up by St. Cajetan. Because Giovanni was Bishop of Chieti, Theate in Latin, and because he was first general of the order, they became known as Theatines--a remarkably indirect reason. Protestant brigands sacked Rome in 1527 and the Theatines suffered greatly and went away to Venice for a few years, but Paul III believed they were needed in Rome and brought them back. Paul III made the future Paul IV a cardinal and employed him in reforming the Curia and in the Inquisition in Italy, where he was very strict if not harsh. Paul IV was very old at his election as pope and quite surprised by it. Legend has it that he might have refused the election if another cardinal had not announced that Charles V would veto Cardinal Caraffa if elected; in outrage at this attempt at meddling, Caraffa accepted. The Habsburgs shut the pope out of the serious issues of the era, especially the attempts at a political settlement with Protestants and issues around the succession to the Empire and forced the pope to ally with France. Unlike Paul III, Paul IV is not considered a successful pope. He promoted a very unworthy "cardinal-nephew" despite his own personal rigor; he was petty in awarding other family members with land taken from Spaniards due to his quarrels with the Habsburgs; he took probably very problematic measures encouraging harshness by Queen Mary in England and thwarting Cardinal Pole. He did take some actions toward re-establishing a Catholic hierarchy in the Netherlands and starting one in the Orient. He continued to encourage the Inquisition but at least had a reputation for being no respecter of persons in that regard, and he did disavow his problematic nephews after various failures. Paul V: A relative of St. Catherine, his family was from Siena and had moved to Rome. In many ways he was a stiff canon lawyer and a bad negotiator. He got into a tremendously bitter dispute with Venice on grounds that to modern ears sound pretty bad: Venice refused to exempt clergy from civil courts. They did also forbid transfer of real property to clergy and required civil approval of new churches. Paul V put them under interdict, which they flagrantly ignored. The Jesuits, Theatines, and Capuchins left the city, and the other clergy apparently sided with the government. Much was written by learned men on either side, such as Baronius, Bellarmine, and the Venetian Paolo Sarpi--something of a quasi-Protestant and despiser of the politics of the Papal Curia. The French and Spanish governments helped broker a somewhat distasteful compromise--certainly distasteful to Paul V. Yet Paul V was not always so intransigent. He tried to reach a rapprochement with James I in England, asking that Catholics in general not be persecuted after the Gunpowder Plot but commiserating with the monarch over the attempted assassination, but the pope was rebuffed. An interesting note: According to J. Jungmanns, The Mass of the Roman Rite, Paul V signed a decree in 1615 allowing the Mass to be celebrated in Chinese, out of respect for the antiquity and learning of ancient Chinese philosophy, recognizing it as a peer to Latin or Greek. This decree was never transmitted and acted upon, and Benedict XIV a few years later decided differently. In administering Rome Paul V was more successful. Even though he promoted many members of his family, they in general served the administration well. He also got to celebrate many of the achievements of the sixteenth century: the new St. Peter's was finished, and he canonized or beatified saints like Charles Borromeo, Frances of Rome, Ignatius of Loyola, Francis Xavier, and Philip Neri. Sadly, his reign also saw the actual start of the Thirty Years' War. Paul VI: Our first pope in living memory if we discount the preliminary discussion of the Piuses. Paul VI was a career Church diplomat, much like John XXIII and Pius XII. When John XXIII called the Second Vatican Council and then passed away a short time into its proceedings, Cardinal Montini was elected and took the long-disused name of Paul. He never publicly explained his choice in detail. It is widely believed that it was to hark back to the Apostle, far more than any kind of biretta-tip to a previous pope, although the legacy of Paul III and his reforms leading to the Council of Trent might be a distant secondary consideration. John XXIII had taken an even more disused name, the name of an Apostle, and Paul's legacy and its connection to Rome if anything makes it surprising that more Popes have not taken the name. In any case, Paul's pontificate was inevitably linked to the Council. His tasks were to celebrate and spread its messages, begin the authoritative interpretation of its statements, and carry out its intentions. In the event Paul was pope long enough to complete most of the latter: the enormous revisions to the Mass and to the Breviary or Liturgy of the Hours. He also implemented changes to the structure of the Curia in Regimini ecclesiae universae, a stream of influence on the later 1983 revision of the Code of Canon Law under John Paul II. Perhaps the final major document of the postconciliar period, the new Catechism of the Catholic Church, was not completed until 1994 and bears more of the mark of John Paul. Paul VI did not use the term "new evangelization" but made statements leading in that direction--for example, in the document Ecclesiam Suam on the Church's posture toward the modern world and in Evangelii Nuntiandi. He contributed to Catholic social teaching on the morality of economic development, especially in Populorum Progressio. In these ways he emphasized the positive developments begun during the Council. In other ways he took stands against the so-called "spirit of Vatican II" by emphasizing traditional doctrines. In Mysterium fidei he emphasized the continuing central role of the Blessed Sacrament in Catholic spirituality, and in Humanae Vitae he reiterated and put on a new, bolder, more consistently argued footing the traditions of Christian sexual morality, combating the unprecedented assault of the "Sexual Revolution" and paving the way for John Paul II to develop these ideas more fully in his pontificate. Why Paul VII, and what would taking that name seem to imply for a 21st century pope? Using St. Paul as a reference point could never be inappropriate. In our contemporary situation the primary inference, an emphasis on the missionary calling of the Church, would again be foremost. Paul could also be used as a symbol of Romanness, but the political situation for that is hard to see reasserting itself any time soon. Obviously folk would assume a reference is being made back to Paul VI and to the Second Vatican Council. This, as even this short summary shows, would be an ambiguous reference. Is Paul VI the "liberal" Pope who fulfilled the Council's promise to rescue us from the Latin mumble Mass? Or is he the "conservative" Pope who was so out of touch as to condemn contraception? Paul III is a prominent enough figure that he, too, could serve as a reference point. In that case look out for a Third Vatican Council or (if Providence is truly gracious) a Fourth Council of Constantinople. The assessment of such a cardinal choosing to call out Paul III specifically (in addition to Paul the Apostle, Paul VI, and perhaps other great Pauls from Christian history) might be that the situation is parallel to the situation Paul III inherited in this way: The conciliar movement at the end of the Western Schism did not reach a stable resolution at Constance, Pisa, or Basle, but left smoldering embers that roared up as Protestantism and required the Council of Trent to address (unfortunately after enormous lasting damage was done). Similarly, the legacy of the Second Vatican Council is clearly unresolved. That is to say nothing of the millennium-old schism with the East, although this hypothetical Paul VII might or might not choose to embrace the goal of complete reunification of apostolic, sacramental Christianity--he might well decide that the Roman communion needs to heal its own wounds before launching itself more vigorously into that quest. In any case, a reference to Paul III might imply a belief in the need for another Council to settle the liturgical, administrative, and other problems still facing the Church.

This world can be full of pain, heartache, and brokenness. But there's good news: God's rescue plan isn't done yet. This week, Pastor Jason concludes our series, From Garden to City, with a discussion of how Jesus will finish redeeming all things by creating a new Heaven and new earth, where we will join Him. Our bodies and our world will be completely healed, and Christ Himself will wipe away every tear from our eyes. In the new Jerusalem, almighty God will dwell among us. Since we have this hope of eternal glory in Jesus, we can live free of fear. Not even death can separate us from our Savior. Our response should be one of joy and celebration! Jesus has already won the ultimate victory, and He will finish the rescue plan that He started. All who believe in Him will join Him, but those who do not believe will be separated from Him. He is coming soon, so today is the day of salvation!This week, our hosts have their final discussion on the series, from garden to city, some of the talking points were, if it's ok to fear death, Pauls letters to the Philippians, and the slide that was shown but not talked about in the first service. Oh and tune into the beginning to hear our hosts talk about where they would travel to if money wasn't a problem.If you would like to watch the video podcast, find us on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMhDfGn0zfzi6XjcKkSVcFAFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/discovertbcInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/topekabiblechurchWebsite: https://www.discovertbc.com/
In Session 3 of Closed Doors?, I Do Not Permit a Woman, we turn to 1 Timothy 2:915one of the most significant passages used to restrict women from teaching or exercising leadership in the Church. Rather than beginning with a conclusion, we slow down to examine Pauls words within the larger context of his letter to Timothy and the challenges facing the church in Ephesus. Together, we explore the language Paul uses, the problem of false teaching, his references to Adam and Eve, and the difficult statement about women being saved through childbearing. As we work through the passage, we ask whether Paul was establishing a universal restriction for women everywhere, or addressing a particular situation in Ephesusand what that means for how we understand the passage today.
This episode features a conversation with Kevin Fogarty about his musical, Southern Harmony: A Murder Ballad. Bernie Tiede was a model citizen. He was the star tenor in the church choir, director of the community theater, a trusted friend, and everyone's favorite funeral director and mortician. Marjorie Nugent was a wealthy widow, estranged from her entire family, conservative in her lending practices, accustomed to always having the final say, and had a reputation for being less than warm and welcoming. They were an unlikely pair. Their arrangement was unconventional. There were bound to be problems. But the murder was just the beginning. When an ambitious, no nonsense district attorney takes what he think will be an open and shut case, an East Texas town has to rethink everything they know about right and wrong to make sense of the situation. Mixing traditional musical theater with southern gospel and Texas folk influences, the line between good and evil runs right through the heart of Texas in this dark true- crime musical comedy. This episode features demo recordings of the songs “People Person” performed by Todd Buonopane, as well as “Tristan Da Cuhna” performed by Todd Buonopane and Michelle Jennings.

In Session 2 of Closed Doors?, Women Should Be Silent?, we turn to one of the most challenging passages in the conversation about women in the Church: 1 Corinthians 14:3435. Pauls words that women should remain silent in the churches have shaped Christian practice for generationsbut how should we understand them alongside the rest of 1 Corinthians, where women are clearly praying and prophesying in the gathered church? In this session, we slow down and examine the passage in its biblical, literary, and cultural context, exploring the major ways Christians have interpreted these difficult verses. Rather than avoiding the tension, we allow Scripture to interpret Scripture as we ask what Paul was addressing in Corinthand what this passage reveals about the participation of women in the life and ministry of the Church.
Sunday Morning 13th September 2026 - Pastor Kendal Davies
The Rev. Jay Weldon preaches on the sixteenth Sunday after Pentecost.
Romans 13:1-7 Principles of Authority (vv. 1-2) The hierarchy: God government us The responsibility: us government God Provision of Authority (vv. 3-4) Protect the peaceful and the good Prosecute the criminal and the evil Prescription of Authority (vv. 5-7) Obey the laws (unless against Scripture: Acts 5:29) Honor the leaders (Prov. 24:21, 1 Peter 2:17) Pay the levies (Matt. 22:21-22) More to Consider Rome was the imperial capital, the seat of the empires civil government. As residents in Rome, Pauls initial readers were aware of both the glory and the shame of that city in the days of Nero, who reigned from a.d. 54 to 68. But they were also citizens of Christs kingdom (Phil. 3:20; Col. 1:13). Appropriately, therefore, Paul discussed a Christians relationship to his government and civil rulers. Both in its length and specific details this discussion is the key New Testament passage on the subject (cf. 1 Tim. 2:14; Titus 3:1; 1 Peter 2:1317). John A. Witmer, Romans, in The Bible Knowledge Commentary: An Exposition of the Scriptures, ed. J. F. Walvoord and R. B. Zuck, vol. 2 (Wheaton, IL: Victor Books, 1985), 490. When the noted Dr. Pollich, of Mellerstadt, heard Martin Luther lecture at the University of Wittenberg, he said, 'That monk will confound all the learned doctors, propound a new doctrine, and reform the whole Roman church, for he studies the writings of the prophets and evangelists. He relies on the Word of Jesus Christ, and no one can subvert that, either with philosophy or with sophistry." -True Stories Paul urged Christians to be submissive and model citizens because God has installed the governing authorities to keep the civil order and punish wrongdoers. Peter gave similar instructions about submission (1 Pt 2:1314, 17). However, submission to authorities is not absolute. Both Jesus and the writer of Acts established this central Christian principle. Jesus said, Give back to Caesar the things that are Caesars, and to God the things that are Gods (Mt 22:21). Peter and the apostles declared that they must obey God rather than human beings (Acts 5:29). Any submission to the authorities must pass through the filter of Gods will and call upon a believers life. Ted Cabal et al., The Apologetics Study Bible: Real Questions, Straight Answers, Stronger Faith (Nashville, TN: Holman Bible Publishers, 2007), 1701. Were I a sovereign, I would not have to do with atheistical courtiers whose interest it was to poison me; I should be under the necessity of taking an antidote every day. It is, then absolutely necessary for princes and people that the idea of a Supreme Being, creating governing, rewarding and punishing, be ingraven on their minds.

There were people who taught the Bible but didnt believe in Jesus. How did they try to get Paul in trouble with the government? Why didnt that stop Paul from preaching? Why did Paul refuse to take a salary from the Corinthian church when he accepted it from Macedonian believers? Why did Paul start with the synagogue when preaching? How can we learn from Pauls preaching to avoid the ditch of cold indifference and the ditch of simple preference? How did Gallio fail in his duties? How does verse 10 show how the doctrines of grace (Biblical election) are a motivation for missions and evangelism? Explain how verse 9 contributes to the discussion of household baptisms in Acts. How does this passage bolster our confidence in the power of Christ to give new life to those who believe in him?

Mentor Sessions Ep 095: Bob Burnett and Nacho Pauls of Ocean discuss Bitcoin mining decentralization, the BIP-110 chain split, hash rate flight, and Bitcoin Knots.Bitcoin's first real hard fork just tested mining decentralization for real — and Ocean's hash rate dropped from roughly 40 exahash to 23 before clawing back. Bob Burnett (Barefoot Mining, Ocean chairman) and Nacho Pauls break down what actually happened when the chain split, why rented hash fled while owned hash stayed, and what the loss of Bitcoin Knots means for client diversity going forward.You'll learn why the "template centralization" problem is still the core issue even after BIP-110 was resolved, how a non-KYC pool kept paying miners through the chaos, and why Bob argues Bitcoin needs 3 to 5 competing clients — drawing a direct parallel to how the PC industry standardized USB, PCI, and Bluetooth. You'll also get the honest story behind Ocean's high-profile team departures, who's stepping into the CTO and chairman roles, and why Bob calls the whole episode a "distraction" the community ultimately settled the right way.Whether you run a node, stack sats, or care about who really controls Bitcoin's hash, this is a candid, insider conversation about mining, consensus, and what comes next.⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 - Intro0:41 - Hard Fork Fallout and What Happened1:12 - Have Bob's Decentralization Views Shifted?1:54 - Datum Templates and Decentralization Fix3:25 - Ocean Hash Rate Drops From 40 to 23 EH3:43 - Overcoming Defeatism Among Motivated Miners4:11 - Nacho Explains Why Miners Left Then Returned4:57 - Only Pool That Let Miners Choose6:37 - Owned Hash Rate Versus Rented Hash8:34 - True Cost of 15 EH Rented Hash9:38 - Non-KYC Mining and Unknown Customers10:50 - Why Large Miners Avoid Switching to Ocean13:20 - Ocean's Jump to 30 EH and Path to 10017:23 - Sponsor Break18:50 - Team Drama and Key Departures20:17 - Amicable Split With Departing Founders22:01 - Jason Hughes Becomes CTO and Board Changes23:28 - BIP-110 Debate and Your Hash Your Choice33:15 - Bob's Personal Take on Departures34:13 - Mistake of Treating BIP-110 as Crisis38:39 - Community Consensus and Bitcoin's Strength43:57 - Losing Bitcoin Knots Client Option45:53 - Short Medium and Long Term Client Strategy46:48 - Plea to Core on Extended Version Support47:27 - Why Bitcoin Needs Three to Five Clients48:32 - PC Industry Lessons on USB and PCI Standards51:16 - Where to Follow Nacho and BobGuests mentioned: Bob Burnett (Barefoot Mining, Ocean), Nacho Pauls (Ocean), plus discussion of Luke DeWolf, Jason Hughes, and the Bitcoin Boomers.
Mit einem leichten Dröhnen im Kopf und schmerzenden Augen kehrt der Besenwagen Gravel von der Europameisterschaft in den Belgischen Ardennen zurück ins Ruhrgebiet. Pauls und Simons Rennen hätten unterschiedlicher nicht laufen können, steckten den beiden aber noch ein paar Tage in den Knochen. Viel wichtiger war jedoch das Rennen der Elite-Frauen, das leider aus den falschen Gründen für Aufmerksamkeit sorgte: die Startaufstellung direkt hinter den Männern der Ü70 Age-Group verhagelte vielen Teilnehmerinnen ein faires und sicheres Rennen. Darüber, über die Gewinner:innen der Besenwagen Gravel-Challenge, die neuesten Bike-Launches und alles was noch so im Gravel Zirkus passiert, reden Paul und Simon in der neuen Folge.

Paul J Ryan is an entrepreneur and mentor who owns an 8 figure business that runs without him. After nearly having a heart attack from stress at age 40, Paul explains why the business itself wasn't the source of his stress, it was how he was running it. In today's show, he shares how entrepreneurs can become the biggest bottleneck in their own companies and why building the right culture, leadership team and accountability systems is essential if an owner wants to step back. We also explore the differences between financial freedom, time freedom and emotional freedom. Paul opens up about the fear and feelings of worthlessness that existed beneath his outward success, and how confronting those emotions changed his relationship with money, business and achievement.

In this episode we continue our conversation with Justino Tesoro, Jesse Ayala, and Katie Emerson about Marlise! The Musical. It's 1954, and Hollywood star Marlise Mattox has been framed for murder, live on television at the Oscars. The only person who believes she is innocent is Arnold Berman, an obsessive superfan and studio prop-room assistant. After bailing Marlise out of jail, Arnold pulls her into a madcap investigation through backlots, biblical epics, and film-noir shadows. Along the way: flipping Pharaohs, biblical tap numbers, buried Hollywood secrets, and a robot on skates. Equal parts love letter to and loving spoof of Hollywood's Golden Age, Marlise! follows one fallen movie star and her greatest fan as they attempt to solve a murder, and film her comeback at the same time. This episode features a demo recording of the song “Moses! Moses!” performed by Justino Tesoro. Connect with Marlise!

890 I Spend My Life in God's Service, A Guided Christian Meditation on 2 Corinthians 12:14-16 with the Recenter With Christ app The purpose of this podcast is to help you find more peace in and connect with the true source of peace, Jesus Christ. Outline: Relaxation, Reading, Meditation, Prayer, Contemplation and Visualization. You can sit comfortably and uninterrupted for about 20 minutes.You should hopefully not be driving or anything tense or unrelaxing. If you feel comfortable doing so, I invite you to close your eyes. Guided Relaxation / Guided Meditation: Breathe and direct your thoughts to connecting with God. Let your stomach be a balloon inflate, deflate. Scripture for Meditation 2 Corinthians 12:14-16 KJV 14 Now I am ready to come to you this third time. And I will not be a burden, for I want not what is yours, but you. Children ought not to save for their parents, but parents for their children. 15 I will most gladly spend and be utterly spent for your sakes. If I love you more, am I to be loved less? 16 But granted that I myself did not burden you, yet I was crafty and got the better of you by deceit. 14 Look, for the third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be a burden to you, because I do not want your possessions, but you. For children should not have to save up for their parents, but parents for their children. 15 Now I will most gladly spend and be spent for your lives! If I love you more, am I to be loved less? 16 But be that as it may, I have not burdened you. Yet because I was a crafty person, I took you in by deceit! Reflection on Scripture: I was counseling with a person one time and they felt devalued by their spouse and they were talking about prioritizing themselves more. I have heard this repeated often. In that moment, I felt an internal conflict, or perhaps better said I felt the weight of the balance that Paul presents in these previous verses regarding his equality with other apostles. On the one hand he is no less valuable, and on the other, he is equally a fallen person. So one side is that we need to learn to not hate ourselves because that is a lie from the enemy, yet the solution to that is not to focus more on ourselves that is an influence from our unhealthy culture. Jesus taught us to love and serve others. He also told us to love others as ourselves. Other people are no more important but no less important than you are. I don't think in general the world has a shortage of people thinking about themselves. Learning to focus more on ourselves is often not the way to resolve these feelings. If we are willing to serve God would that also not be serving God's children. I think the solution to feeling devalued is to truly understand the value God places in us and now that we feel His love, that we look to Jesus for what he wants us to do with this stronger feeling of value and love. As two examples, consider a situation in which both people in a marriage feel as though they are not being focused on and loved enough. It is possible for both people to feel devalued at the same time. The solution to this problem would not be for both partners to focus on themselves more, but to learn how to receive unconditional love from God. Once fed by the love of God we can help to more clearly connect with another person and appropriately negotiate with our spouse on how to feel more loved from them. This is a profound oversimplification but consider it a metaphor. Another example is for people who struggle with social anxiety, if we transition to helping other people feel at ease in social settings it can actually lower our anxiety more than trying to put ourselves at ease. Again both of these are oversimplifications but they are examples. So take Pauls statement here about how he remains dedicated to the Church and try and discern how God wants you to balance your dedication? Meditation of Prayer: Pray as directed by the Spirit. Dedicate these moments to the patient waiting, when you feel ready ask God for understanding you desire from Him. Meditation of God and His Glory / Hesychasm: I invite you to sit in silence feeling patient for your own faults and trials. Summarize what insights you have gained during this meditation and meditate and visualize positive change in your life: This is a listener funded podcast at patreon.com/christianmeditationpodcast Final Question: If you consider the invitation and command to persevere in the faith, what change in your life does that bring to your mind?

This episode features a conversation with Justino Tesoro and Jesse Ayala about their new show, Marlise! The Musical! We also had a very special guest: Katie Emerson who plays Marlise herself. It's 1954, and Hollywood star Marlise Mattox has been framed for murder, live on television at the Oscars. The only person who believes she is innocent is Arnold Berman, an obsessive superfan and studio prop-room assistant. After bailing Marlise out of jail, Arnold pulls her into a madcap investigation through backlots, biblical epics, and film-noir shadows. Along the way: flipping Pharaohs, biblical tap numbers, buried Hollywood secrets, and a robot on skates. Equal parts love letter to and loving spoof of Hollywood's Golden Age, Marlise! follows one fallen movie star and her greatest fan as they attempt to solve a murder, and film her comeback at the same time. This episode features demo recordings of the songs “The Greatest Movie” performed by Justino Tesoro, Brandon Scott Grayson, and Isa Peña, as well as “Marlise's Lament” performed by Justino Tesoro.

The Rev. Erica Ridderman preaches on the twelfth Sunday after Pentecost.
In this episode we continue our conversation with Jessica Francis Fichter and Colleen Francis about their new musical: Dandelion. DANDELION tells the poignant and uplifting story of Jane, a young woman who faces profound questions of responsibility and sacrifice when she must decide between attending college in pursuit of her lifelong dream, or staying home to care for her mother — who is struggling with severe mental illness and addiction. Jane navigates the ups and downs of her senior year of high school while her father tries to lighten the mood with his trademark dad jokes, her brother urges her to assert her own autonomy, and her goofy best friend Gabbie is always by her side to offer emotional support and wacky antics. At the same time, Lilah faces her own inner demons — personified onstage as the Voices — as she loses herself amid a sea of doctors' appointments, prescriptions, and hallucinatory episodes. When Jane leaves for a “Welcome Weekend” event at North College, Lilah's illness reaches a self-destructive turning point, forcing Jane to question whether her mother will be able to live alone safely without Jane, her little “Dandelion.” As family tensions and mounting pressures only worsen, and Lilah continually begs her to stay, Jane has to make the impossible decision to leave in the hopes of making her dreams — and Lilah's — come true. This episode features demo recordings of the songs “Start Again” performed by Kevin Perdido, as well as “Dandelion” performed by Hannah Bonnet and Sadie Wiskes.

The Rev. Candy Snively preaches on the eleventh Sunday after Pentecost.
Paul writes to the church to tell them who Christ is, and to keep his preeminence in all things and places. Today just as when Jesus walked on the earth, when it is made known who He is, it is not well received. Regardless we must keep Him first in all areas of our lives unto the end.

It is good – and much to be preferred – to always focus on the positive words that we find in Scripture, but in doing so we must not be blind to the concerns that arise and threaten to distract the community of those following Christ. As Paul brings his letter to the Romans to a conclusion, after writing of all the foundations to a true faith and the way of life in that faith, he then finds it necessary to write, “I appeal to you brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, for by smooth talk and flattery they deceive …. “[v.18] Judas Iscariot served himself while giving an outward appearance of serving Christ. If we should encounter such let us follow Pauls' advice, “ … I want you to be wise as to what is good and innocent as to what is evil.” [v.19] In the previous chapter we read “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope” [v.13] We cannot miss the emphasis on “hope.” How much do we need a real hope in our hearts in 2026 – a hope that creates “all joy and peace” as we face the challenges of godlessness that abound in today's world; we must develop a sense of total commitment so that we can more easily avoid distractions.What total commitment Jeremiah must have had, so many enemies, efforts to put him to death, as we read today in ch. 26 (v.11) But God saw to it that he had some support. He was God's mouthpiece in warning the people of God's impending judgements. How effective are you and I in doing that? Do we feel weak? That seems natural, we do not have the direct contact with God that Jeremiah experienced, but we do have the full revelation of his whole purpose in the 66 books of the Bible. Let us take special note of Paul's final words to the believers in Rome, “Now unto him who is able to strengthen you according to my gospel … according to the command of the eternal God to bring about obedience of faith – to the only wise God be glory forevermore through Jesus Christ! Amen.” May we so live that we witness that coming glory.

Leonardo Mercado, known as The Peyote Lorax, joins me for Episode 209 to talk about the ecological and legal crisis threatening peyote, the sacred cactus at the center of Native American Church ceremonies. We get into peyote's collapse in its only natural range, the contradictions inside the federal exemption that governs who can legally possess and cultivate it, and the Seed to Ceremony conservation project Leo is building through Morningstar Conservancy in Arizona.
