Is Trump's health exposing how broken healthcare really is - and why does the idea of a preventative MRI make politicians and doctors lose their minds? From Trump's preventative MRI and the healthcare gatekeeping meltdown that followed, to a viral Dave Smith debate that shows how libertarianism collapses when it turns into rigid dogma, this episode pulls back the curtain on why systems built on signaling over solutions always fail. We dig into why early detection scares bureaucracies, how ideology becomes useless when it ignores human reality, and why common sense keeps getting drowned out by people protecting their rules instead of real outcomes. Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": CardioMiracle.com/TBNS Then we shift to Ohio politics, Vivek Ramaswamy, and why the Libertarian Party keeps sabotaging real liberty wins by chasing purity instead of results, before closing with the outrage storm around Falcons running back Bijan Robinson and what it reveals about free speech, culture, and the modern outrage economy. This is a real-world, no-BS breakdown of liberty, responsibility, and why adults need to start acting like adults again. ❤️ Order Cardio Miracle (CardioMiracle.com/TBNS) for 15% off and take a step towards better heart health and overall well-being!

1 Thessalonians #5 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8 In this message, we explore Paul’s clear call to live a life that pleases God through holiness and purity. Scripture teaches that God’s will is our sanctification-learning to honor Him with our bodies, our choices, and our daily walk.

Can the Church stay relevant without becoming the same as the world? This episode unpacks how to meet people in their brokenness while staying rooted in biblical truth. Be blessed! 

Since sin, death and corruption entered the world man has been living while facing two ends of a spectrum. Faced daily with challenges that challenge him on which one to choose. On one end he is faced with laziness which bears down the soul not to follow what God and the church has set for us, resulting in quenching of the spirit of prophecy. Another end is to choose to be uncomfortable and at an inconvenience so we can walk with God. On that road man is invited to learn that it is not about the temptation of being on the other side of the challenging spectrum of choices in life but rather about letting God fight for you so you could be won over to the follow the righteous life.

Colossians Chapter 1 Study: The Preeminence of Christ and Reconciliation Introduction Encouragement to study Colossians chapter 1, focusing on the preeminence of Christ and the power of God. Acknowledging personal feelings of inadequacy but emphasizing trust in God’s power to feed His sheep. God uses “foolishness of preaching” to save believers. Reference to Colossians 1:18-22 as the text for the message. “And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.” “For it pleased the Father that in him should all fullness dwell;” “And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.” “And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled” “In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreprovable in his sight” Prayer for God’s help and for the truth to find its place in hearts. The Inward Man vs. The Outward Man Concept of Inner and Outer Self Most people don’t understand the concept of the inward and outward man. There is an unseen man on the inside. God looks at the heart (inward man), not just the outward appearance. Example: Samuel anointing a new king for Israel. Salvation of the Inward Man God saves the inward man, not the outward man (which returns to dust). The inward man must be reconciled to God. The Second Death If one is only born once (physically), there are two deaths in the future. It’s dangerous to be unreconciled to God, even momentarily. If you die without being born again, your soul is unprepared to meet God. Eternity is the most important subject to consider. Need to call on God before it’s too late. God’s Work of Reconciliation and Cleansing Miraculous Work of Salvation Personal testimony of being saved in 1976. Salvation is a miraculous, irreversible work that provides eternal life. Promise of never perishing. Ephesians 1:3-4, 7 Blessed with spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ. Chosen in Him before the foundation of the world to be holy and without blame. Redemption through His blood and forgiveness of sins according to the riches of His grace. Colossians 1:22 Presented holy, unblameable, and unreprovable in His sight through the body of His flesh through death. Reconciliation Through Christ’s Blood God reconciled us through the blood of Jesus Christ. Jesus paid for and cleansed us of all sin (past, present, and future). God paid the penalty for our sin debt before we ever could. Calvary’s cross provided forgiveness for all future sins. Promise of being presented to the Father as holy, unblameable, and unreprovable. Purity of the Bride of Christ The bride of Christ (the church) has been made pure. God chose us before the foundation of the world and made a way for all sins to be paid for on the cross. We are made holy, unblameable, and unreprovable through Jesus’ sacrifice. Ephesians 1:4 Confirmation We should be holy and without blame before Him in love. Eternal Security Once born again, one is forever taken care of and will never be lost again. God’s plan at Calvary satisfied the justice of God for the penalty of man’s sin. God recognizes the work of His Son in us, making us holy, unblameable, and unreprovable. We are the sons of God because of the blood shed for our souls. We go to heaven because of what Jesus did, not what we’ve done. Addressing the Misconception of License to Sin Addressing the Misconception Addressing the idea that being forever clean gives a license to sin. Apostle Paul’s response in Romans: “How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?” Born-again individuals cannot live in sin. A new creature inside loves what was once hated and hates what was once loved. If truly born again, something bigger on the inside will chastise and bring one home. Isaiah 1:18 Though sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. Jesus Christ’s sacrifice makes us white and clean in the blood of the Lamb. Everything we’ve ever done falls under the blood of Jesus Christ. Desire to Live Righteously Desire to live the way God wants us to live, not alienated from God or the church. Wanting to live without sin in our hearts. Payment for All Sin At salvation, all sins (past, present, and future) were paid for with Jesus’ blood. God accepted that payment and purged us of sin. Sealed to the Day of Redemption God sealed what He made white, pure, holy, unblameable, and unreprovable with the power of His Holy Spirit. Sins are gone and under the blood of Jesus Christ. Importance of Repentance and Fellowship Fellowship with God depends on willingness to repent daily. Repentance restores fellowship with God. Even if death occurs without a moment to repent, one dies clean, holy, unblameable, and unreprovable because the blood paid for all sin. Everything needed to make us perfect in Christ has been done. Freedom from Fear Freedom from living in fear over salvation. Belief in Jesus’ words: “I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish.” This statement is valid only if all sins were paid for, not just in part. Made holy, unblameable, and unreprovable and sealed to the day of redemption. Holiness and Righteousness Imputed Through Christ Being Holy as God is Holy The only way to be holy is through Christ. Romans 4:22-25 Righteousness was imputed to Abraham because of his faith. This was written for us also, to whom it shall be imputed if we believe on Him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. Jesus was delivered for our offenses and raised again for our justification. Presented as Holy Jesus will present us to God the Father as holy. Holy means righteous, all right, not wrong. Focus on the inward man, not the outward man. Righteousness of Christ Imputed The righteousness of Jesus Christ, not our own, is imputed to us when we turn our hearts over to Christ. It was laid to our account and placed in our hearts, sealed until the day of redemption. Assurance of Salvation Not worrying about sin because, according to the Word of God, sins are gone. Sins are under the blood and gone forever. Living as Holy in Heart Desire to live as holy in the flesh as we are in the heart. God doesn’t halfway forgive sin; He forgives all sin. We are clean and white in the eyes of God. God’s Justice Satisfied The blood of Jesus Christ satisfied God’s justice. We are presented holy, unblameable, and unreprovable in His sight. This is only possible if He deals with our sin, which He did. Eternal Payment for Sin Jesus forever paid our sin debt, and we are saved forevermore. If He didn’t preserve us in that white, holy condition, we wouldn’t have a chance of getting into heaven. Every hope is anchored in the blood of the Lamb. Saved because of what Jesus did, the propitiation for all our sin. Unblameable and Unreprovable: A Miraculous Work Unblameable and Unreprovable Holy, unblameable, and unreprovable are the same concept. A person who cannot be blamed cannot be reproved. Reproving in the flesh helps us walk according to what’s in the heart. Cannot reprove what’s inside the soul; it’s either right with God or not. God had to do something miraculous to make our souls unblameable. Superiority of New Covenant We have something Job didn’t have. Job had great faith, but the blood of Jesus Christ had not yet been shed. Jesus rose from the dead, gathered up that blood, and presented it to God the Father as payment for our sins. Everyone who bows in the name of Jesus Christ can be born again and have their sins washed away. Perfection Through Christ Cannot be saved again because you can’t make perfect water. Cannot go to heaven if you aren’t perfect. Hebrews 9:11-12 Christ came as a high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle. He entered the holy place once with His own blood, having obtained eternal redemption for us. He made us perfect on the inside. John 1:29 John the Baptist saw Jesus coming and said, “Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” Jesus died for sins we’ve yet to commit. Salvation wouldn’t be worth anything if it only covered past sins. He died for the sin of the whole world. God’s Perspective God will present us to the Father as holy, unblameable, and unreprovable. If God says we are unblameable and unreprovable in His sight, we should rejoice. No boasting or works are involved; we have no means of getting to God except through the finished work of Jesus Christ. Cleansing from All Sin and the New Birth 1 John 1:7 If we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ, His Son, cleanses us from all sin. Cleansing from all sin is not about turning over a new leaf. Worthlessness of Self-Righteousness Salvation is not about what we do or will do. Kicking habits or stopping addictions doesn’t merit favor with God. Our righteousness is nothing but filthy rags. The flesh will return to dust, but something inside us was forever made holy and unblameable. Necessity of New Birth Either Jesus’ blood was sufficient for all our sins, or we need to live in constant fear. God knew saving the flesh was impossible because its nature is sinful. Jesus told Nicodemus we must be born again. We are new creatures in Christ because we are born again in the Spirit of God. Two Births, One Death Born once, die twice (physical death and lake of fire). Born twice, die once (only physical death). Boasting in the Lamb of God Boasting about the Lamb of God who shed His blood for our souls. Because we’ve been born again, we get to go to heaven, holy, unblameable, and unreprovable. Romans 3:24 Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. Justified means there is no condemnation, sin, or culpability. Devil’s Accusations The devil tries to blame, accuse, and reprove us. We end up at the altar where we bow our knee to Him, and the Holy Ghost of God purges us of sin. We have been made clean in the sight of God. We have something to be grateful for; God made a way. We can’t mess this up. Eternal Security and the Gift of Salvation No Need for Retuning No need to get “tuned up” on the inside man again. There is no “black” (sin) inside; it’s all in the nature of the flesh. That which He bought, purged, cleansed, and sealed to the day of redemption must be perfect and holy. Jesus’ promises of eternal life and never perishing would mean nothing if our sins weren’t gone forever. Justification Through Grace Being justified just as if we’d never sinned, freely by His grace through the redemption in Christ Jesus. God set forth Jesus to be a propitiation through faith in His blood. Assurance of Salvation The gift we got will never be in question. Hope that others have experienced the same and will get there. If you die tonight and have been born again, He will present you unto God holy, unblameable, and unreprovable. He did the work once, immediately, for all, and then sealed it. Salvation by Grace, Not Works We get to go to heaven not because of anything we’ve done that was good. No message preached or good deed done will get us into heaven. For the same reason good works won’t get us in, bad works cannot keep us out. Purged and Sealed He purged our sin, looked into the inward man, and identified all the dark past and future sins. The blood has paid for all sin, and it was cleansed and made white that day. He sealed it until the day He redeems us. Day of Redemption The day of redemption is when this old body expires. To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. The Holy Spirit will no longer need to be sealed on us; we will be with Him. Doctrinal Belief This is doctrinal to our faith and what we believe. Sometimes we don’t remind ourselves of what great gift God has given us. Illustration of the Slave Girl and the Auction Block Story of the Slave Girl A young slave girl was being sold on the auction block, stripped from her family. She grew hateful toward all those bidding for her. One man bid a price far above what anyone else could pay and bought her. He tore up her papers and said, “You’re free.” She went after him and said she would serve him for the rest of her life. He bought her so he could set her free. Application to Salvation We serve God because we are debtors to Him. We will never be able to repay Him for what He did for us that day as a child. After millions of years, we will still be thanking Him for saving our souls. God’s Perspective When we see our regret, God sees the cross. When we see our sin debt, God sees the price paid in full by His only begotten Son. When we see our multitude of sins, God sees the blood of the spotless Lamb. When we say, “O wretched man that I am,” God says we are righteous because of Jesus Christ and what has been imputed into our hearts. Living a Life Worthy of Salvation Sons of God Whether we act like it or not, if we’ve been born again, the blood of Jesus Christ has made us sons of God. We ought to act like it and live every day of our lives 100% sold out and surrendered to the will of Jesus Christ. He’s worthy of no less than that. Assurance of Salvation If you’ve been born again, you’re going to heaven. He’s going to present you unto the Father, holy, unblameable, and unreprovable. You don’t deserve to go, but He made you worthy. That’s worth living for; whatever He says to do, we ought to do it. There aren’t enough devils in hell to keep us out of it if we’ve been born again. Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God. The only thing you can do with a gift is receive it. Invitation to Receive the Gift God made a way for you to be saved tonight. Religion won’t get you there; you must know Jesus Christ as your Savior. If you know Him in the free pardon of sin, who has done a work in you and made you holy, unblameable, and imputed the righteousness of the perfect one, then you can raise your hand and say thank you. Come forward if you don’t know Him tonight and receive this gift. Gratitude for Salvation Thank God for the blood of Jesus Christ. We have a lot to be grateful for. We can fall on our knees every day and shout hallelujah; He’s made us clean through the blood of the Lamb.

Part 2 Dave and Bethlie discuss the book And The Bride Wore White.    Chapter 2-4 about Satan's lies. His lies haven't really changed (Gen. 3:1-13) "Did God really say that?" "God is keeping something good from you." "A little won't hurt you." "Now that you've fallen, God has no use for you."  There is no debating with the devil.  We must learn truth and shut him down with truth.   Chapter 6 about Purity being a process.   Realizing: *I was not born pure. (We are born innocent, but we are also born sinners.) *I will face the beast of lust, perhaps over and over again, but that in itself is not  a sin. Rather it is a chance to develop my purity by talking to God, talking to a  friend, and making a fast, strategic exit.  *I can become pure. (Pg 57)   Chapter 7 about envisioning a Godly Husband. One of Charity's favorite chapters, simply because the author encourages girls to dream about and pray for the man that God has for them. (Incidentally, when I was praying for David Young, I was dreaming of a handsome man with dark, curly hair, blue eyes, and dimples. The Lord loves me! Ironically, David wasn't even saved when I started praying for him!)   Chapter 8-12 give practical and Biblical tools to maintain purity including awesome dating advice. *Woven throughout the book is Bob and Dannah's love story, how they met, how they dated, broke up, got back together, became engaged, and eventually married.   Self-control and self-denial Modesty in dress and conduct Having the right kind of conversations. ("Foul lines"—things you won't discuss until you are ready to be married.) (pg 98-99) Be sure you (and the one you're interested in) love God MOST. Being open to wise counsel, particularly from parents.   Conclusion The book finishes with God's beautiful, sacred plan for sexuality.  There are "letters" in the appendix which deal with things like sexual abuse pornography fatherlessness abortion singleness

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.

There is a reason why the art 'space' is divisive and why money distorts many things.In Episode #504 of 'Meanderings', Juan & I discuss: the book by Magnus Resch titled '100 Secrets of the Art World', tight‑knit gatekeeping at the high end of the market, how control of information shape what gets seen and sold (often more than artistic merit), parallels to other status markets such as watches/supercars, why 'better' often defaults to 'more expensive', where marketing can overshadow craft yet many collectors still buy for love and to support artists and why the truest encounters with art might still be found in small local galleries rather than at Art Basel.No support for this week, very sad puppy :( Stan Link: https://stan.store/meremortalsTimeline: (00:00:00) Intro(00:01:52) Defining the 'art space'(00:03:38) First impressions: elitism, provenance and pretence(00:09:04) Gatekeeping: cabals, galleries and New York(00:12:06) Parallels with cars/watches: scarcity and status(00:15:27) Art Basel anecdote: committees, control and quiet coups(00:20:02) NFTs, provenance on-chain and collectibles vs art(00:22:22) Popularity: storytelling, marketing and money(00:27:38) Quality heuristics: effort, complexity and the 22blue painting22 problem(00:32:38) Boostagram Lounge(00:34:00) Misconceptions across niches: calisthenics, hand balancing, circus(00:39:03) On labels and assumptions: steroids, fitness and nuance(00:44:04) Finding the essence: local galleries, pure enjoyment(00:48:06) Would creation persist without cash?(00:53:56) Purity at the base, distortion at the peak(00:55:27) Housekeeping and support links; live chat banter Connect with Mere Mortals:Website: https://www.meremortalspodcasts.com/Discord: https://discord.gg/jjfq9eGReUTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/meremortalspodsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/meremortalspodcasts/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@meremortalspodcastsValue 4 Value Support:Boostagram: https://www.meremortalspodcasts.com/supportPaypal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/meremortalspodcast

In this week's podcast Aaron attempts to discover the essence of worship. He asks his wife, the president and the president's daughter. He even asks the musical prodigy Ben (but you'll have to email Aaron for the link to that interview aaron@loveandpurity.com) Just in case you're short on time, the key takeaway is removing “me” from worship.

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 Power of Purity by Bishop Joaquin G. Molina

How should we related to one another as married and single people?

Let's Talk About Desire, Purity, and Christian Singleness

In this week's podcast titled “Sing!”we explore one of the most repeated invitations in Scripture — to sing. From Deborah's song in Judges to the song of the Lamb in Revelation, the Bible reminds us that singing is more than melody; it's ministry. This episode reflects on passages where God's people lifted their voices in praise, thanksgiving, and victory. We'll talk about why we sing, who we sing to, and what happens when we fill our hearts and minds with songs of worship instead of the noise of the world. You'll also hear how modern science echoes what Scripture has always said — that singing heals, unites, and frees. Because even on the hardest days, when there seems to be no song in your heart… sing anyway.

This week, Jake and Bob discuss identity: why it matters, how it is formed, and its role in the healing process. We live in a fallen world with an enemy who spreads lies that can send us down paths far from the truth of who we are. Through questions like "Who am I?", "Whose am I?", and "Do I belong?" Jake and Bob explore how to reclaim our God-given identity and rest in the freedom of living in that truth.   Key Points: Finding your identity in Christ and living out of that truth is part of the healing process We begin the search for our identity in childhood and continue to deepen it (whether in truth or lies) throughout life Because we live in a fallen world, our identity can easily be influenced by the lies we believe about ourselves, others, and the world around us Healing is more than the relief from pain. Maturing in our God-given identity is actually a form of healing We become what we believe we are. We come to know ourselves and learn to love ourselves as we learn who we are in God There is value and healing to be found in the journey of finding our identity in God   Resources: Jake's Identity Course (Use the code RESTORE10 at checkout for 10% your enrollment)  The Chastity of Jesus and the "Refusal to Grasp"   Connect with Restore the Glory:  Instagram: @restoretheglorypodcast  Twitter: @RestoreGloryPod Facebook: Restore the Glory Podcast   Chapters: 00:00 Introduction 08:05 "What Am I?" and " Who Am I?" 21:58 The Struggle Against My God-given Identity 29:34 Do I Belong? 39:57 The Path to Finding Your Identity 48:12 Maturing Within Your Identity 55:23 The Purity of Love   Never miss out on an episode by hitting the subscribe button right now!

"I have to talk to you guys today about something I don't want to talk to you about."

Lust can become a very powerful force in our lives. It has the ability to produce an appetite in us that is often uncontrolled. It tries to, even for a moment, hijack our mind, body, and behavior to drive us to do things we never thought we would do. Because of this, the apostle Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 6 to respond to lust in a very unique way: “FLEE!” Do not just pray about it, think about it, read about it, ask about it… Run away. If we're honest, sometimes we get away, but other times we do not, as Lust creeps into our hearts, souls, and minds. And yet as we step into this conversation please know: Lust is not safe. But you are. Lust is not welcomed. But you are. The devil is a liar and there's no condemnation in Christ Jesus. This weekend unpacked this and asked Jesus to heal us in ways only he can as we go “From Lust to Purity.”Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuDownload the Captivate App to Stay Connected! - https://shorturl.at/5PfXPIf you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

As Fr. Mike suggests, the battle for purity is never more difficult than in our own day. With God's grace, we can prevail and find freedom from our temptations. Fr. Mike explains that we win this battle through chastity, purity of intention, purity of vision, and prayerful reliance on the Lord. He tells us how to pray for a pure gaze that allows us to see our brothers and sisters as God sees them. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2520-2533. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

Fr Mike celebrates the accomplishment of reading the entire Old Testament and wraps up the books of 2 Maccabees and Wisdom, talking through the key themes of the Old Testament visible in the conclusions to these books. He also discusses the motivation of the Maccabees to defend the temple and maintain its purity as well as uphold God's honor.
