Fr. Mina gives the sermon on being pure of heart. He explains the gospel of the day, which is when our Lord Jesus Christ performed a miracle to pay taxes. He explains that St. Peter and Our Lord paying the same amount of tax may have led the disciples to believe that He was choosing St. Peter as his second in command. Thus, our Lord explains that to enter the Kingdom of Heaven, we must be like little children.
But the greatest of these is LOVE. We know that we are requires to love like Yeshua loved. It's easy to love the lovable, but what about “those” people who really seem unlovable?

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, host Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with Michelle Lee—trailblazing former Editor-in-Chief of Allure—for a raw and insightful conversation on what it means to reshape the beauty industry from the inside out. From redefining mainstream standards of aging to championing diversity on magazine covers and behind the scenes, Michelle opens up about the intentional decisions that sparked global conversations.She discusses the decision to ban the term “anti-aging,” explaining that it wasn't about rejecting aesthetic treatments—it was about removing the shame attached to getting older. Michelle also breaks down the real reason the industry feels so overwhelming today: too much pressure to be innovative and not enough focus on what actually works. As she puts it, “Not everything needs to be brand new. Sometimes, people just want products that deliver.”Throughout the episode, Michelle shares her admiration for K-beauty and the simplicity of skincare philosophies that prioritize hydration, purity, and efficacy. She touches on the body care boom, the wellness industry's fine line between innovation and marketing hype, and why beauty should be rooted in storytelling and substance—not noise.If you're curious about where beauty has been and where it's heading—from ingredients and inclusivity to industry ethics—this episode offers a rare glimpse into the mind of a true cultural architect. Listen in for real talk, real insights, and a roadmap to a more empowering future in beauty.CHAPTERS:(0:00) Introduction to Michelle Lee(1:02) Michelle's Journey into Beauty and Media(3:09) The Importance of Diversity and Inclusion in Beauty(4:25) Banning Anti-Aging and Shifting Beauty Standards(7:25) Changing the Narrative: Anti-Aging and Embracing Aging(9:54) Evolving Beauty: Navigating Competition and Innovation(12:22) K-Beauty: Hydration, Purity, and Efficacy(15:06) The Rise of K-Beauty in the U.S. Market(18:25) Navigating the Longevity Supplement Trend(29:49) Closing Thoughts: What's Exciting in the Beauty IndustryTo learn more about Michelle Lee, visit her social mediaLearn more about Function Health and join using our link.

From physical contact and visual seduction to emotional manipulation and religious deception, the Scripture paints a vivid picture of how temptation operates with precision and power. This isn't just about one young man and one immoral woman—it's a timeless warning about how sin targets our senses, flatters our ego, and sets a trap for the soul.

Daf Yomi Avodah Zarah 37Episode 2029Rabbi Yehudah Nesiah was going to permit also the bread of non Jews. However, he was concerned for his reputation—that he would be known as being overly permissive, since he had already permitted the oil of non Jews. This was supported by the fact that Rabbi Yose of Tzereda had gained a repuation for being overly permissive, when he had permitted too many Rabbinic decrees. Most of daf 37 discusses decress that were permitted by both Rabbi Yehudah Nesiah, as well as Rabbie Yose of Tzereda.Sefaria: https://www.sefaria.org/Avodah_Zarah.37a?lang=heEmail: sruli@babbleontalmud.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/babble_on_talmudFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/p/Babble-on-Talmud-100080258961218/Join the community: https://chat.whatsapp.com/LMbsU3a5f4Y3b61DxFRsqf#dafyomi #talmud 00:00 Intro01:30 Permitting the bread of non Jews09:34 No divorce after death28:12 Grasshoppers34:15 Purity of liquids in the Temple38:50 Corpse tumah

Rashi (Bamidbar 26:5) teaches that the Torah puts a yud and a hey around the names of the Jewish families to testify that the Jews lineage is pure, thereby undermining the ridicule of the nations who claim that the Egyptians had their way with the Jewish women.
In today's episode of Morning Manna, we explore Proverbs 7:6–10, where Solomon peers through his window and witnesses a young man drifting toward destruction. What begins as innocent curiosity leads to the very doorstep of temptation. We examine the dangers of spiritual naiveté, the seductive pull of compromise, and the need for vigilance in a darkening world. This timeless warning reminds us to guard our steps, our hearts, and the paths we choose to walk.

'Proclaim Liberty' with Clint Armitage (Christian Liberty, Motivation & Leadership)
In this episode of the Radio Coffee House, host Clint Armitage takes listeners on a heartfelt exploration of childlike faith, drawing inspiration from the uplifting story of Tanner Smith, a participant on the Netflix show "Love on the Spectrum." Clint highlights Tanner's pure and genuine perspective on love and relationships, showcasing how his excitement and innocence serve as a beautiful example of faith in action. Through audio clips from Tanner's journey, listeners will be captivated by his candid thoughts on dating and his joyful encounters, including a memorable moment with actor Jack Black. Clint emphasizes the importance of maintaining a childlike heart, reminding us that faith should be about trust, openness, and joy—qualities that Tanner embodies effortlessly. As the episode unfolds, Clint dives into biblical teachings on childlike faith, referencing Matthew 18 and the Beatitudes to illustrate how humility and a lowly position in our hearts are essential for entering the kingdom of heaven. By contrasting the perspectives of children with the pride often found in adulthood, he encourages listeners to embrace a mindset that is grateful, loving, and free from envy.
The Daily Philip is a devotion of prayer to the Patron Saint of Joy, St. Philip Neri, led by Fr. Malone, parochial vicar of Christ the Redeemer Parish in Swift Current. This devotion has four parts: (1) a daily prayer for a particular virtue, based on the day of the week, to which Pope Pius IX has attached an indulgence (dated May 17, 1852,); (2) a reading from The Life of St. Philip Neri, Apostle of Rome; (3) a quote from The Maxims and Counsels of St. Philip Neri; and (4) the daily prayer for a good death. For Tuesday Prayer to obtain the virtue of Purity. St. Philip, who didst always preserve the white lily of thy purity unsullied, with such great honour to thyself that the brightness of this fair virtue dwelt in thine eyes, shone forth from thy hands, and cast its fragrance over thy whole body, causing it to emit so sweet a perfume that it gave consolation, fervour, and devotion to all who conversed with thee; obtain me from the Holy Spirit of God so true a love for that virtue, that neither the words nor bad examples of sinners may ever make any impression upon my soul. Never permit me in any way to lose that lovely virtue; and since avoidance of occasions, prayer, labour, humility, frequent use of the Sacraments, were the arms with which thou didst conquer the flesh, which is our worst enemy, so do thou obtain for me grace to use the same arms to vanquish the same foe. Take not away thy help from me; but be as zealous for me as thou wast during thy life for thy penitents, keeping them far removed from all sensual infection. Do this for me, my holy Patron; and be ever my protector in respect of this fair virtue. Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory Be… Prayer to be said daily, for a good death. O glorious Saint Philip, faithful helper of thy dying children, be thou my father and protector in the hour of my death. Let not the devil overcome me; let not temptation oppress me, nor fear overwhelm me in that hour; but grant through thy intercession that, fortified by faith, hope, and charity, I may bear all things with patience and perseverance, and may happily die the death of the just. Amen.

The church is the family of God. As a family we are to love one another. In the passage we are covering, Paul asks us to do so more and more. We can and should increase in love for one another because our brothers and sisters in the Lord are the body of Christ. If we cannot love them, John said we do love God. 1 John 4:20

In this powerful and convicting message, Pastor Chris invites us into the heart of Jesus' teaching on the deeper issues beneath our behavior—what he calls the “symptoms” of sin. Through six penetrating statements from the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus diagnoses the internal condition of our hearts and offers a healing cure that goes far beyond behavior management. This is not a call to try harder but an invitation to surrender deeper.In a world obsessed with power, revenge, and appearances, Jesus offers a radically different way—the way of transformation from the inside out. As Pastor Chris unpacks topics like anger, lust, broken relationships, retaliation, and integrity, we're reminded that Jesus doesn't just want to polish our outer lives—He wants to make us whole.Whether you're walking through pain, stuck in cycles of sin, or hungry for freedom, this message will meet you right where you are and lift your eyes to the grace-filled, upside-down kingdom of God.Key themes:- Sin's symptoms vs. sin's root- Reconciliation over being right- Purity as freedom, not restriction- Integrity in a truth-twisting culture- Loving enemies in a fractured world- How Jesus empowers what He commandsJesus doesn't leave us in our brokenness. He gives us a new heart, a new spirit, and a new way to live. The kingdom of God isn't about managing behavior—it's about becoming whole.“In Jesus' kingdom, righteousness is not about looking good. It's about becoming whole in Him.”Listen now and be transformed by the Word.#SermonOnTheMount #GraceCityChurch #UpsideDownKingdom #JesusTransforms #Matthew5 #KingdomLiving #ChristianTeaching #SinAndGrace #SummerOnTheMount
In a world that often celebrates aggression, dominance, and self-promotion, Jesus highlights the quiet strength of meekness — a power under control, rooted in humility and trust in God. This verse reminds us that true influence and lasting impact don’t come through force, but through a surrendered heart. God promises that the meek, though overlooked by many, will one day inherit everything He’s prepared for His people. Visit us online at: RenewalChurch.net

I didn't plan to write this. It started with a Thread, sparked by a conversation with someone who spoke as if identity was destiny, and belonging was determined by pain. They spoke in the voice of certainty—about who could speak, who couldn't, and who owed what to whom.But it stirred something old in me.I grew up in Salt Lake, Oahu. Subsidized garden apartments near the airport. I was six. A haole kid—Irish, English, German, Czechoslovakian, Hungarian—surrounded by friends who were Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Samoan, Filipino. In Hawaii, we were all poi dogs: mutts, proud of our mix. Nobody cared what you were—until intermediate school, when I was suddenly just “white.” One word flattened my whole ancestry.That flattening—that erasure of nuance—is what this is about.Let's be clear: America has never been an ethnostate. It's never required blood purity. It's flirted with white supremacy, yes. It's been built on contradictions, certainly. But it has always been chaotic, plural, experimental. Jews were among the first colonists. There were free Black people before slavery became systemic. Hawaiian royalty toured the White House. The myth of America as ethnically pure is just that—a myth.Compare that with actual ethnostates. Japan. Korea. Hungary. Nations where blood defines belonging. Where being born in-country doesn't mean you're accepted. Where assimilation isn't expected—because it isn't offered. These are places with coherent boundaries. That's what makes them safer, yes—but also more exclusionary.And yet somehow, America bears the guilt of falling short of an ideal no one else even tries to live up to.Whiteness in America has never been fixed. Irish weren't white. Italians weren't white. Jews weren't white. Whiteness was a moving caste line. A club. Not a color.Today, the same people who rightly insist on distinguishing between Vietnamese and Chinese, or Dominican and Puerto Rican, will lump everyone with pale skin into “white.” As if all of us grew up with the same privilege. As if someone like me—raised by a single mom, broke, mixed, uninvited—was born at the top of the pyramid.It's not justice. It's just reversal.Later in life, on Mastodon—a social platform of federated, ideological islands—I found myself in dialogue with an actual white supremacist. He told me I wasn't really white. Not with Irish Catholic blood from County Mayo. Not with Hungarian roots from Budapest. Not with my Slavic features. To him, true whiteness belonged to ethnic English and Germans. Everyone else was an Untermensch—a word I knew from my time in Berlin. A slur. A caste marker. Garbage people.I laughed it off. But I didn't forget.The deeper you look into the world, the more you see these hierarchies. In Singapore, ethnic Han Chinese dominate. In Finland, the elite are Swedish, not Finnish. Every culture has its own purity test.That's why America still matters. Even when it fails. Especially when it fails.Because here, a kid like me could eat kalbi from a Korean neighbor's hibachi at six years old and fall in love with kimchi before knowing how to spell it. Here, I could be a poi dog and still grow up to write, to speak, to belong. That doesn't happen in most of the world.We talk about justice, but we also need to talk about containment. UBI, grievance culture, and online rage cycles don't liberate people—they manage them. They keep people home, sedated, sequestered. Just enough bread to dull hunger. Just enough narrative to keep them angry but inactive.It's not revolution. It's sedation.Still—I believe in this country. Not because it's perfect. But because it's unfinished. Because it tries, even when it stumbles. Because it allows us to write ourselves in.So no, America isn't an ethnostate. And the fact that we even argue about how to be more inclusive proves it.It's messy. But it's ours.And I'll defend that—with aloha.

Heaven's Counsel for the Church: Prophecy for a Purified PeopleThis episode continues the prophecy series with a focus on how God speaks today—personally and precisely to His people, the Church. The message traces God's shift from national dealings with Israel to individual counsel for believers, showing how prophecy is meant to transform, not just inform. The speaker highlights that understanding prophecy requires purity, humility, and submission to Christ, drawing parallels to Daniel's example. Biblical prophecy, especially in Daniel and Revelation, reveals God's heart for intimacy and prepares believers for the trials ahead. Israel's geopolitical role is examined alongside the Church's spiritual calling to remain unstained by the world.

Sex Addiction, Pornography, and Sexual Purity -- Castimonia.org
Welcome back to The Purity Podcast, sponsored by Castimonia, a Christ-centered 12-step recovery program for men battling sexual addiction. In today's episode, we dive into the Trapped Quadrant of the Transformational Recovery Matrix—the place where denial stops working but true change still feels impossible. We'll break it down in three parts: The Wall — When […] The post Castimonia Purity Podcast Episode 122: Trapped: Living in Captivity appeared first on CASTIMONIA.
In this sermon, we explored Paul's use of exaggerated contrast in Ephesians 4:17-24 to highlight the difference between the old life without Christ and the new life in Him. Using vivid examples from both Scripture and everyday life, we saw how futile thinking, darkened understanding, and a hardened heart lead to spiritual emptiness and disconnection from God. The sermon emphasized that the world's attempts to fill the void—through pleasure, achievement, or self-justification—are ultimately futile because we are created for communion with God. The only hope is to “put on” the new self, which comes through learning Christ, embracing His truth, and daily choosing to live out our new identity. The message closed with practical encouragement to feed our spirits with God's truth, reject the junk of the old life, and walk in the freedom and transformation Jesus offers.
Life can be hard. We all have felt feelings of lost, desperation, and despair. In Matthew 5:3-4, Jesus teaches that spiritual emptiness and heartfelt sorrow aren’t signs of failure, but opportunities to encounter God’s Kingdom and His comfort. These verses remind us that God draws near to the broken and fills us with eternal hope. In a world that values strength and self-reliance, Jesus invites us to find blessing in our weakness and hope in our grief. Visit us online at: RenewalChurch.net

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Matthew 9:32-38 - A demoniac who could not speak was brought to Jesus, and when the demon was driven out the mute man spoke. The crowds were amazed and said, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel.” But the Pharisees said, “He drives out demons by the prince of demons.” Jesus went around to all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the Gospel of the Kingdom, and curing every disease and illness. At the sight of the crowds, His Heart was moved with pity for them because they were troubled and abandoned, like sheep without a shepherd. Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few; so ask the master of the harvest to send out laborers for his harvest.” Bishop Sheen quote of the day 2, 3, 4) Dann Aungst, Founder and President of Road to Purity
Zohran Mamdani's win in the NYC democratic mayoral primary has been filled with deflections and pivots so that politicians and pundits don't have to focus on the core issues he's talking about. The left has a path worth considering. The democratic establishment is, for the most part, refusing to endorse him. Derek wonders if the rest of the left can avoid similar traps.

In this episode of the Preacher Boys Podcast, host Eric Schwisinski sits down with Cara Meredith, author of Church Camp: Bad Skits, Cry Night, and How White Evangelicalism Betrayed a Generation. Together, they unpack the formative – and often fraught – world of evangelical church camps. Cara shares insights from her 30 years in camp ministry and her research, including interviews with dozens of former campers and staff across the U.S.The conversation explores the nostalgia and positive aspects of camp, as well as the darker threads: pressured conversions, purity culture, patriarchy, and the marginalization of women, LGBTQ individuals, and people of color. Cara and Eric discuss how church camp acts as a microcosm of white evangelicalism, often pushing conformity and suppressing individuality under the guise of faith formation. They also reflect on leadership, intent, and the importance of elevating marginalized voices within church spaces.Whether you have fond memories of camp or are re-examining its impact, this episode offers a nuanced look at the complexities, harms, and hopes for change in faith-based youth experiences.Timestamps:00:00 Intro and why church camp is worth discussing04:00 Who the book is for and why it was written07:30 Cara's history and experience in camp ministry10:30 The universal positives: fun, nature, and friendships13:45 The recurring negatives: shame, guilt, and pressured conversions17:30 Purity culture and its impact on campers20:00 The intentions of camp leaders vs. the reality of harm23:15 The business side of camp and conversion26:00 The role of nostalgia and critical reflection29:00 Conformity, identity, and the impact on marginalized groups33:30 “Cry night” and emotional manipulation36:00 Gender roles, patriarchy, and lack of women in leadership41:00 What would change if more women led camps?44:30 Elevating marginalized voices in faith spaces48:00 Reconciling good memories with the reality of harm51:00 Final thoughts and who the book is forSupport the Show:Patreon.com/PreacherBoys✖️✖️✖️If you or someone you know has experienced abuse, visit courage365.org/need-help✖️✖️✖️CONNECT WITH THE SHOW:preacherboyspodcast.comhttps://www.youtube.com/@PreacherBoyshttps://www.facebook.com/preacherboysdoc/https://twitter.com/preacherboysdochttps://www.instagram.com/preacherboyspodhttps://www.tiktok.com/@preacherboyspodTo connect with a community that shares the Preacher Boys Podcast's mission to expose abuse in the IFB, join the OFFICIAL Preacher Boys Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1403898676438188/✖️✖️✖️The content presented in this video is for informational and educational purposes only.
