This quick Sunday episode was recorded right after the "pillow fight" of a playoff between Ryan Fox and Sam Burns at the 2025 RBC Canadian Open. Andy is ecstatic about Foxy's victory Monday and subsequent move into the top 35 in the OWGR, hoping that this could get him a spot on the International Team for next year's Presidents Cup. Brendan and Andy recap an SGS-filled top of the leaderboard at TPC Toronto that ended in one of the worst playoffs in PGA Tour history. PJ is called on to explain Cameron Young's Sunday round and blowup on the 72nd hole but he claims this was positive momentum heading into the U.S. Open. A premature game of Oakmont Contender or Pretender is played following Rory's adventurous week with his driver and Phil's near-win at LIV Virginia. Brendan received some on-the-ground intel from RTJ, where Joaquin Niemann won yet again. The show wraps with some Oakmont chatter about rough content, a weekend of rain, and excitement for what's to come in the week ahead at the 125th United States Open.

In 1745 as Charles and his Highland army march through England in their bid to take over the British throne, there's panic on the streets of London - with English newspapers full of stories of raping, murdering Highland savages heading towards the city. But then, unexpectedly, the invading Highland army retreats back to Scotland. It's a fateful decision that leads to Culloden - the last major battle on British mainland soil.

As the spiritual father of the Corinthian church, Paul was deeply concerned about apostolic pretenders who had infiltrated the church attempting to lead her astray; leading her away from her betrothed Saviour. As Paul writes to warn the church, we benefit, for we also need to be alert and aware of Satan's dark servants who pretend to be servants of righteousness. We will study this passage under three headings: 1. A Father's Jealous Care (vv. 1–6) 2. A Father's Sacrificial Commitment (vv. 7–11) 3. A Father's Bold Courage (vv. 12–15)

Chief of the Fair Police Scottie Scheffler has a three-shot lead heading into Sunday of the PGA Championship as Andy and Brendan return to break down the third round. There's plenty of Chief Scottie talk following his incredible back nine, including a new soundboard clip to replace last night's sirens. A lengthy Contender or Pretender? segment follows, with Andy and Brendan discussing Bryson DeChambeau (and his post-round quotes) and a seemingly resurgent Jon Rahm. PJ wraps things up with a quick Regions Tradition update ahead of TWO major championships being decided tomorrow evening.

Bible Reading: Matthew 15:7-9; Titus 1:15-16"Look," said Adrian, pointing to an insect he and his sister Eva had caught out in the garden. "Maybe it's praying!" Sure enough, the bug's forelegs were folded together as if in prayer. "Let's see if we can find out what it is." The kids searched online and found a picture of the bug they had caught. "It's a praying mantis," said Adrian."Does it really pray?" asked Eva.Adrian laughed. "Of course not! Bugs don't pray. I wonder what we should feed it?" He scrolled down the page. "This says they eat other insects and like to eat their prey alive.""Gross!" said Eva, wrinkling up her nose."It says here that if you put a small piece of meat on a string and move it in front of a praying mantis, he may think it's alive and eat it," said Adrian. "Let's try it!"Adrian put a tiny piece of hamburger on the end of a string, and sure enough, the mantis lunged for it."So, did your new pet like the food you gave him?" asked Mom.Adrian nodded. "The website we found said praying mantises are vicious little creatures. It said the female will even eat her husband if she gets hungry enough.""You little hypocrite," said Mom, looking at the bug. "You look so faithful and devoted with your forelegs folded like that, but you're a pretender--you don't mean it at all."Eva giggled. "That would be a good name for him." So Pretender he became.Whenever Adrian looked at Pretender, he felt a bit funny inside. At dinnertime he folded his hands and said "Amen" after his parents, but he never cared to listen to what was being said. I'm just like that bug, he thought. I'm not really praying--I'm just pretending. Adrian knew Jesus loved him, and he pretended he loved Jesus too. But he had never asked Jesus to be his Savior.As Adrian snuggled down into his blankets one night, God seemed to be whispering to him, Haven't you been a pretender long enough? Suddenly, Adrian tossed off the blankets and got up. I'm going to talk to Mom and Dad! he thought. I want to quit pretending and become a real Christian.–Matilda H. NordtvedtHow About You?Are you just going through the motions so others think you're a Christian? Are you more focused on fitting in or pleasing your parents than on God and what He thinks? God loves you so much He sent His Son, Jesus, to die for your sins so you could have eternal life with Him. He wants a real relationship with you, not a pretend one. Become a real Christian by trusting in Jesus today.

My Name is Emilia del Valle by Isabel Allende. Any new book from the wonderful Isabel Allende is a treat, and this is no exception. It begins in 1866 when an Irish nun becomes pregnant after an encounter with a wealthy Chilean who turns his back on them, and the baby and her mother have to fight for their place in the world. The child, Emilia del Valle, eventually becomes a writer and a journalist, and is eventually sent to cover the Chilean civil war along with a friend and colleague, Eric Whelan. There is history here as well as the romance, which makes it truly fascinating along with the romance. It was an extraordinary time. The Pretender by Jo Harkin. Set in 15th Century England at the juncture between the Plantaganets and the Tudors, this is fiction which is fun, bawdy, historically interesting and never takes itself too seriously. It tells the story of a young boy who through his lifetime is known by a series of names. Firstly, he's John Collett, growing up on a farm from which he's one day uplifted by a couple of noblemen, becoming known as Lambert Simnel and told that he is in fact the 17th Earl of Warwick and will challenge King Henry 7th for the Crown. I loved it. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Who was Lambert Simnel—the boy who nearly claimed the Tudor throne? In late 15th-century England, identity wasn't just a matter of birth—it could be a political weapon, a tool for rebellion, and sometimes, an outright performance. The story of Simnel, a boy plucked from obscurity and passed off as the York heir, reveals how precarious the Tudor dynasty really was—and how easily the lines between truth and fiction could blur. Author Jo Harkin joins us to explore the strange life of Simnel, the so-called Yorkist “pretender” who nearly toppled Henry VII. In her new novel The Pretender, Harkin imagines Simnel's life beyond the history books, from his childhood on a farm to his years at court. Along the way, she unpacks what it meant to be groomed for kingship, what royal power struggles looked like from a child's point of view, and how historical fiction can fill in the gaps of the past. Though Shakespeare never wrote a play about Henry VII, his portrayal of Richard III helped shape how we remember the Wars of the Roses—and how we understand power, myth, and legacy. Harkin reflects on those cultural inheritances, showing how writing about this era means grappling with historical facts and the fictions we've come to accept. Simnel's story reminds us that what endures isn't always what's real, but what people are ready to believe. Jo Harkin's debut speculative fiction novel, Tell Me An Ending, was a New York Times Book of the Year. Her first historical novel, The Pretender, was published in April 2025 in the U.K. and the U.S. She lives in Berkshire, England. From the Shakespeare Unlimited podcast. Published April 22, 2025. © Folger Shakespeare Library. All rights reserved. This episode was produced by Matt Frassica. Garland Scott is the executive producer. It was edited by Gail Kern Paster. We had help with web production from Paola García Acuña. Leonor Fernandez edits our transcripts. Final mixing services are provided by Clean Cuts at Three Seas, Inc.

When Jo Harkin was in the middle of writing a science fiction novel, she took a procrastination break to read a book about kings and queens. That's when she came across the name Lambert Simnel in footnotes of British history, a known pretender to Henry VII's throne. In her novel, "The Pretender," Harkin elevates Simnel from the footnotes to an imagined history, filling in with fiction what written history might have left out. KMUW's Beth Golay talked to Harkin.

Do you have compassion for the homeless people you pass by on your way to work? What about the neighbor with the flag you disagree with? The boss who drops last-minute assignments on you three minutes before it's time to clock out? In today's message, Pastor Bill teaches that compassion isn't easy, but lucky for you, you have the King of Compassion walking with you. When you feel bitterness swelling up inside, remember that Jesus, nailed to the cross, had compassion for his accusers.

Jo Harkin discusses with Ivan six things which should be better known. Jo Harkin studied literature at university. She daydreamed her way through various jobs in her twenties before becoming a full-time writer. Her debut novel Tell Me an Ending was a New York Times book of the year. Her new novel is The Pretender, which is available at https://www.waterstones.com/book/the-pretender/jo-harkin/9781526678348. She lives in Berkshire, England. The ruin of Minster Lovell. This was the estate of the Viscount Lovell, one of the main characters in The Pretender. It's got enough standing walls and a beautiful vaulted entryway to allow you to imagine life there, but also the setting is stunning. Alice Chaucer's tomb, and the concept of the Memento Mori. An hour away from Minster Lovell, in Oxfordshire, are the former lands of the Earl of Lincoln, another main character in the novel. In the pretty village of Ewelme, St Mary's church contains the tomb of Alice Chaucer – grand-daughter of the poet himself, and the grandmother of Lincoln. The Fabliaux.

When was the last meal you skipped? Some people like to skip breakfast, and sometimes, lunch gets put on the back burner while work gets done. But when did you last skip a meal to reflect upon the Lord? In today's message, Pastor Bill teaches that fasting doesn't have to be showy like the Pharisees made it out to be, and it's not as scary as you might think. When you fast the way Jesus instructs, it can be a beautiful experience for you and a blessing to God as you reflect on and honor Him.

What's the truth about Judas Iscariot? Has he truly been misunderstood all this time? Pastor Greg Laurie makes a biblical case for just how evil Judas actually was. Notes: Focus verse - Matthew 26 Judas Iscariot was perhaps the most paradoxical and wicked man in the Bible. Was Judas Iscariot misunderstood? Satan put the idea into Judas’s mind to betray Christ.John 13:2 Judas could have resisted that temptation. Judas initiated the betrayal of Christ.Matthew 26:14–16 Judas was a pretender, an actor, a performer. Don’t let someone else’s inconsistency keep you away from following the only one who is consistent, Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ was the perfect example. Read Matthew 26:21–24 Even though Jesus knew what Judas was up to, He demonstrated love to Judas to the very end. Read Matthew 26:39–50 Jesus was considering the load of sin He would bear. Jesus cried out "Abba, Father,"Mark 14:36 When worry causes you to choke, cry out to God. Jesus was a model of what to do in times of uncertainty. Jesus demonstrated His divine power and gave a glimpse of His glory when the Roman soldiers came to arrest Him. Jesus was in complete control of everything.He was going to the cross as a Victor, not as a Victim. Judas ignored all the warnings that Jesus gave. The way Judas betrayed Christ was so abhorrent.Matthew 26:49 Judas was a hypocrite. Jesus reached out to Judas with love.Matthew 26:50 Jesus offered Judas one last chance to repent. Read Matthew 27:2–5 Judas did not have a friend in the world except for Jesus whom he just betrayed. Judas was remorseful.Matthew 27:3 God will not violate the will of man.He will affirm us in the decisions we make. But a true child of God will not continue to live in a pattern of sin.1 John 3:9–10 Two men failed Jesus on one night, Judas and Peter. Judas Iscariot turned away and walked into eternal remorse.Simon Peter walked into the open arms of God. --- Learn more about Greg Laurie and Harvest Ministries at harvest.org.
