In late September, shortly after declaring antifa a "domestic terrorist", Trump issued a memorandum directing the IRS to investigate tax-exempt organizations that could be "directly or indirectly financing political violence or domestic terrorism" and nonprofit organizations reasonably felt concerned of being targeted. A couple of weeks later, Lydia and Thomas ran into Nick Fish, President of the American Atheists, at California Freethought Day and asked how he and the organization were holding up in light of everything. We're pleased to have Nick on to discuss what nonprofit organizations can do to protect themselves, as well as the people who have supported their mission and the communities they serve, when it is feeling less and less paranoid that the federal government might be coming for you. How can organizations fortify themselves through governing documents and organizational structure to donor databases and retention policies when the President of the United States could very well declare your nonprofit a supporter of domestic terrorism?

In this episode, Pastor Matt invites us into a deeper posture of holy expectation — not hype, not striving, but the steady awareness that every moment is already sacred because every moment is union.We explore what it means to live awake to the Presence we already carry, to prepare our hearts not through effort but through tenderness, and to recognize the appointed moments where heaven and earth meet.This message calls us to end the ebb-and-flow mindset, embrace the truth that we are God's resting place, and step into the kind of expectation that opens the heart instead of exhausting it.If you're hungry for a lifestyle of union, communion, and holy anticipation, this teaching will mark you.Listen and lean in — awareness is the doorway, and union is the invitation

November 30, 20225. First Sunday of Advent homily by Fr. Matt Lowry about how Christ calls us to be prepared now for His coming. Our efforts will be worth it for the joy of His Second Coming.

Reverend Sye Van Maanen

Sunday Morning, November 30, 2025Given by Dr. Kevin DeYoung | Senior Pastor, Christ Covenant ChurchA People PreparedLuke 1:5-25Watch on YouTubeDownload our mobile app

Are you ready for Christmas? We ask each other about our readiness for lots of things: vacation, a new job, start of school; but that all pales in comparison to how we inquire of each other’s readiness for Christmas. We ask strangers if they are ready for Christmas! What are we asking about? Cooking and shopping, maybe travel plans, or parties to prepare. Church! Don’t forget that Christmas Eve service. With the time, money and energy we give to preparing, seems appropriate to ask, 'Does God think we are prepared?'

November 30th, 2025:  Be Prepared Whether He Returns in 5 Minutes or in 5,000 Years; Prepare with Prayer; Advent is a Time of Active Waiting; Waiting for Christmas

Despite the expectation of opposition, Jesus' kingdom of witnesses will advance according to God's plan, built on the apostolic foundation.

Luke 1:5-25 English Standard VersionBirth of John the Baptist Foretold5 In the days of Herod, king of Judea, there was a priest named Zechariah, of the division of Abijah. And he had a wife from the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth. 6 And they were both righteous before God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and statutes of the Lord. 7 But they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren, and both were advanced in years.8 Now while he was serving as priest before God when his division was on duty, 9 according to the custom of the priesthood, he was chosen by lot to enter the temple of the Lord and burn incense.10 And the whole multitude of the people were praying outside at the hour of incense. 11 And there appeared to him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense. 12 And Zechariah was troubled when he saw him, and fear fell upon him.13 But the angel said to him, “Do not be afraid, Zechariah, for your prayer has been heard, and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you shall call his name John. 14 And you will have joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth, 15 for he will be great before the Lord. And he must not drink wine or strong drink, and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb.16 And he will turn many of the children of Israel to the Lord their God, 17 and he will go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready for the Lord a people prepared.”18 And Zechariah said to the angel, “How shall I know this? For I am an old man, and my wife is advanced in years.” 19 And the angel answered him, “I am Gabriel. I stand in the presence of God, and I was sent to speak to you and to bring you this good news. 20 And behold, you will be silent and unable to speak until the day that these things take place, because you did not believe my words, which will be fulfilled in their time.” 21 And the people were waiting for Zechariah, and they were wondering at his delay in the temple.22 And when he came out, he was unable to speak to them, and they realized that he had seen a vision in the temple. And he kept making signs to them and remained mute. 23 And when his time of service was ended, he went to his home.24 After these days his wife Elizabeth conceived, and for five months she kept herself hidden, saying, 25 “Thus the Lord has done for me in the days when he looked on me, to take away my reproach among people.”English Standard Version (ESV)The ESV® Bible (The Holy Bible, English Standard Version®), © 2001 by Crossway, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers.ESV Text Edition: 2025. 

What does our Lord mean by stay awake? How do we prepare during the Advent season? Listen to my homily for answers to these questions and for more information.

The first Sunday of Advent always brings a special sense of anticipation—a stirring reminder that we are a people who wait with purpose. This week at Myrtle House Community Church, Ellen Chapman invited us to rediscover what Advent truly means: a season of preparing, expecting, hoping, and aligning ourselves with the heartbeat of God. Advent isn't just about counting down to Christmas. It's also about looking ahead with longing toward Christ's return. We are waiting people, but we don't wait passively—we prepare. Dietrich Bonhoeffer once said, “The celebration of Advent is possible only to those who are troubled in soul, who know themselves to be poor and imperfect, and who look forward to something greater to come.” Without Jesus, we are painfully aware of our own lack, yet with Him, our hearts find hope, meaning, and transformation. God With Us—Our Model, Our Hope Isaiah 7:14 reminds us of a breathtaking truth: Immanuel—God with us. Jesus entered our world not only to save us, but also to model a life fully surrendered to the Father. When we ask, “What would Jesus do?” we're inviting His example to shape our actions, our attitudes, and our responses. The angels declared His birth as good news of great joy for all people (Luke 2:10–11). Advent is a celebration of this joy—joy rooted not in circumstances, but in the presence of Jesus who came near. Preparing the Way Ellen then led us to John the Baptist—the forerunner, the one appointed to prepare hearts for Christ. He knew his calling. He understood his role. And he faithfully pointed others to Jesus. We have the same calling today. God is moving. He is drawing people to Himself. And He invites us—His church—to be ready to welcome, to love, to shine, and to reflect the light of Christ. Our lives tell a story, and what we carry inside becomes what others see. We are called to be salt and light in a world longing for hope. How Do We Prepare Our Hearts? Ellen shared four ways we can prepare ourselves for all that God is doing: 1. Align Our Hearts and Minds God promised in Ezekiel 36:26 to give us a new heart—a heart soft toward Him, shaped by His Spirit. Transformation begins within. 2. Pray Matthew 6 invites us to speak with our Father in the secret place. Prayer aligns us with His presence and His purposes. 3. Read and Learn We prepare by immersing ourselves in Scripture. Knowing God's Word helps us understand His voice and His ways. 4. Be Discipled Growth happens in community. Walking with those who are further along strengthens our faith and builds spiritual maturity. Prepared for a Purpose Preparation is not busywork—it has a purpose. John the Baptist prepared the way for Jesus, and we are called to do the same for those around us. We are bearers of light. Our faith is meant to be lived, not merely spoken. Our actions often speak louder than our words. When we allow God to purify our hearts and shape our character, we begin to reflect Christ more clearly—His humility, His compassion, His truth, His love. There is hope for something better, even in the hardest moments. Advent reminds us that Jesus came once, and He will come again. And until that day, our calling is to align ourselves with His heart and help others meet Him. A Final Encouragement God is on the move. He is preparing His church—calling us deeper, shaping us further, and leading us into a season of greater impact. Let's prepare the way. Let's be the light. Let's align our hearts with His. This Advent, may our lives tell a story of hope.

Read Online“Therefore, stay awake! For you do not know on which day your Lord will come. Be sure of this: if the master of the house had known the hour of night when the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and not let his house be broken into. So too, you also must be prepared, for at an hour you do not expect, the Son of Man will come.” Matthew 24:42–44How does one “stay awake” as our Lord commands us? We receive this holy exhortation as we enter into a new liturgical year. In Advent, we begin at the beginning. We ponder the Incarnate Son of God dwelling as a human Child in the precious womb of the Blessed Virgin Mary. We anticipate the celebration of His birth into the world at Christmas. As the liturgical year progresses, we will prayerfully walk through each moment of His life, from the events of His childhood, to His public ministry, and ultimately His death, resurrection, and ascension into Heaven.Our Lord's exhortation to stay awake invites us to be attentive to the ways that the Son of God's human life speaks to us, calling us to become fully united to Him so as to share in the glorious gifts of holiness in this life and eternal salvation in the next. After exhorting us to stay awake, the Son of God said, “For you do not know on which day your Lord will come.” Of course, we know He came into this world over 2,000 years ago in physical form. This exhortation is not only a call to ponder that event long ago; it's also an invitation and exhortation to become continuously more attentive to the effect that His historical coming has upon us today. Advent is a season that invites us to reflect on Christ's first coming in Bethlehem, His daily coming to us in grace, and His final coming at the end of time. These moments are intimately connected, as each prepares us more fully for the next.From Heaven, the Son of God continues to descend to us, inviting each of us to conceive Him in our souls by grace, to be attentive to His divine presence within us, and to nurture His divine presence so that He will grow and live within us, making us true members of His Body, the Church. Staying awake means being aware of Christ's presence in every moment and cultivating a personal relationship with Him that is alive and growing. This Advent, ask yourself: How am I nurturing my relationship with Jesus so that I am ready to meet Him whenever He comes?Jesus calls us to be prepared at every moment of every day, “for at an hour you do not expect, the Son of Man will come.” Though this is a promise that He will return one day to judge the living and the dead at the end of time, it is also a promise that He relentlessly pursues us here and now, communicating to us by grace and inviting us to be transformed more fully, so as to love Him and manifest His love to the world around us. As we mature in our faith, God often speaks in subtler ways, inviting us to listen with the ears of our hearts. These gentle whispers of grace require us to be even more attuned to His presence, ready to respond to His call in the quiet moments of our day.Reflect today on Jesus' exhortation to be awake, vigilant, attentive, and ready to love Him in the smallest ways. To stay spiritually awake, cultivate habits that keep you attuned to God's presence: set aside time for daily prayer, receive the sacraments frequently, and be mindful of opportunities to serve others. These practices will help you remain vigilant and ready to encounter Christ at any moment. Search for Him this Advent, and never tire of loving Him in your prayer and in those around you. The Son of God continuously comes to you “at an hour you do not expect.” By building a spiritual habit of being prepared, you will meet and love Him throughout your day. My ever-present Lord, You surround me with Your grace and flood me with Your mercy day and night. Please give me a heart that is attentive and receptive to You so that I can receive all that You wish to bestow and love You and others with Your Sacred Heart. Jesus, I trust in You.  Image via Web Gallery of ArtSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved. Used with permission via RSS feed.

Are You Prepared to Face Your Death? Have You Prepared Your Family for Your Death and Led them on a Path to Their Eternal Life? MESSAGE SUMMARY: Most of us do not like to think about and plan for death, especially our own. However, Paul in. Romans 6:23, made your life and death position very clear: “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.". As part of your preparations for eternity, you should take one time each year to evaluate and to reflect on your position for facing death and realizing eternal life by identifying those changes that you must make in your life and in your relationship with God. This preparation for your death will be a blessing for you and your family. Are you prepared to face your death? Will you have eternal life? What about those you leave behind – are you being a good steward?  Also, what about your family? Is your family prepared for your earthly death and their earthly death; and have you led your family on a path to receive their eternal life? In Matthew 28:18, Jesus gave us His Great Commission for your life focus: “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.". Have you followed Jesus' Great Commission, for your own family, by making disciples of your family members?     TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, everything in me resists following you into the garden of Gethsemane to fall on my face to the ground before you. Grant me the courage to follow you all the way to the cross, whatever that might mean for my life. And then, by your grace, lead me to resurrection life and power. In Jesus' name, amen.   Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 100). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, Because of who I am in Jesus Christ, I will not be driven by Past Failures. Rather, I will abide in the Lord's Grace. “I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in Me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing.” (John 15:5).

End Times. Islam. The AntiChrist. Persecution. Tribulation. We have been studying really difficult topics lately. But what makes me so sad? What makes my heart so heavy? Very few Christians are prepared for what is coming.

As in the Days of Noah: Living Prepared in Ordinary Times Jesus warns his disciples that the coming of the Son of Man will be sudden and unexpected, . . . . . . just as in the days of Noah and Lot, when people were absorbed in ordinary activities and unprepared for God's intervention. Jesus urges readiness, detachment from worldly attachments, and a willingness to surrender one's life to God. As the liturgical year nears its end, the Church's readings focus on the end times . . . not to inspire fear, but to remind believers that life is a journey toward God. The Homily explains that preparing for Christ's coming involves two essential steps: acknowledging the existence of God and allowing God to influence one's life. The first reading from Wisdom warns against admiring creation without recognizing the Creator. True wisdom is to see beauty in the world and let it lead us to God. What Does Being Ready Mean The Gospel adds that being ready means letting God shape our daily lives, rather than resisting His influence. Ordinary activities become spiritually empty when God is excluded from them. Preparation involves letting God's will challenge and transform us, trusting Him even in moments of doubt or suffering. Genuine trust requires a full surrender of the heart . . . not holding back parts of our lives from God. The Homily concludes with an invitation to affirm love for Jesus from the heart and to let this love guide all actions and decisions.

Quotes: "I think what would save the world would be simply our release of the false belief of separation." "In all of nature, there is a fundamental order, a structure behind all of it." "Is that us offloading consciousness into the thing that we can travel the universe with because we can't do it in bodies like this?" "We don't need additives. We need to remove what's unnecessary, not just keep filling."  "I think the false belief of inanimate separateness is the root of ignorance, which is the root of suffering." "Maya the Grand Illusion, we have been talking about this, we are aware of this, not new. Reality being an illusion. We know it's an illusion." "The big bang is the breath of Brahma." "It's definitely a paradigm shift, and maybe not bad. Maybe we're supposed to have machines doing stuff for us so we can make music and write poetry and follow our passions and our dreams." "Prepared as much as anyone can be, mentally, physically, spiritually, as much as you can be. And then after that, drop the fear and just live." "If your heart is heavier than the feather, your heart is fed to the crocodile deity, devoured for eternity in all damnation." "If you focus on love, light, truth, all the good stuff, we shall persevere." "You've got to start looking out there at the people that are getting tattooed, and you've got to find a way to find out what their needs are, what they want, and find a way to fill it."

November 17-23The Book of Mormon is indeed a special witness for our times. It is the story of a people who centered their lives on the prophecies of the coming of a Messiah, who is Jesus Christ the Lord. They put their hopes in His Coming and in His Atoning Sacrifice that would be wrought. They anxiously awaited His Coming. They prepared a place for Him to come. They waited for six hundred years for His arrival. And then He came as promised! We are no different in our day. We know that He is coming. Many prophecies of His Coming have been given in our day. A place has been prepared for Him to come. And He will come! Section 133 gives us much to think about to prepare for His inevitable and glorious arrival. Let's explore this together.

I grew up in my high school. years in rural Pennsylvania.  Much of what my family did at the time is what is considered classic prepper behaviour today.  We had a garden, we canned and stored a ton of food in the basement, we hunted and fished as much for sport as for food.  We made jerky and sausage from venison, stews from all of the odd cuts of both hunted and store bought meats.  We organized berry picking groups in blue and blackberry seasons and spilt up shares t the end of the day. My grand parents kept chickens … Continue reading →
