Today's Bible Verse: "Do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you can obey its evil desires." — Romans 6:12 Romans 6:12 challenges believers to consider who or what is truly in control of their lives. After explaining the new life believers have in Christ, Paul issues a warning: don't allow sin to take the throne of your heart. While sin no longer has the ultimate power it once did over those who belong to Jesus, it still seeks to influence our thoughts, desires, and decisions. Want to listen without ads?

Join The Revd Canon Dr Alison Joyce, Rector of St Bride's, and St Bride's Choir for this week's reflection in words and music. Edward Bairstow was supposedly the rudest Yorkshireman in a county famed for its blunt speaking but that is not apparent in the beautiful anthem "Blessed city, heavenly Salem" which he wrote in 1914. It sets words from a seventh-century hymn and crafts the plainsong melody for that text into a series of six contrasting variations. The anthem draws to a close with a beautiful, yearning solo soprano descant which together with the concluding tierce de Picardie provides one of the most entrancing moments in choral music. Our reading from Matthew continues on from last week's as Jesus tells the parable of the weeds among the wheat. Alison's reflection begins with her favoured definition of a community as a place where the person you least want to live with always lives because to grow in love and grace you have to recognise that you need that person to be there. We close with the hymn "How shall I sing that majesty" set to the rousing and popular tune "Coe Fen" by the composer Ken Naylor. The school at which he was Director of Music is situated near to that small fen on the outskirts of the university city of Cambridge.

Today's Bible Verse:: "Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name. Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing. Why do you complain, Jacob? Why do you say, Israel, ‘My way is hidden from the Lord; my cause is disregarded by my God’?" — Isaiah 40:26–27 Feeling Forgotten? Look to the Stars. Isaiah 40:26–27 speaks directly to anyone who has ever wondered if God sees them. The people of Israel felt abandoned during a season of hardship, questioning whether God had forgotten their struggles. In response, God pointed them to the night sky. Every star had been created by Him, every one called by name, and not a single one was missing from His care. If God knows every star in the universe, how much more does He know the details of your life? The God who holds countless galaxies together also knows your fears, your prayers, your disappointments, and your hopes. When life feels overwhelming or your prayers seem unanswered, His silence should never be mistaken for His absence.

On this week's programme Fr Brendan QuinlivanI speaks with Fr. Richard Gibbons, Rector of Knock Shrine about the upcoming celebrations of the Golden Jubilee of the Basilica of Our Lady Queen of Ireland and the plans for the National Novena to Our Lady of Knock in August. Artist, Eve Parnell, discusses the depiction of women in Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel while Vincentian Michael McCullagh explores the challenge of forgiveness.

Tras casi nueve años al frente de la Universidad del Tolima, el rector Omar Mejía aseguró que entrega una institución transformada, con acreditación de alta calidad, gratuidad universal y finanzas saneadas, en contraste con la universidad que, según dijo, recibió en medio de una profunda crisis en 2016.

Join The Revd Canon Dr Alison Joyce, Rector of St Bride's, and St Bride's Choir for this week's reflection in words and music. The English composer William Henry Harris was organist at St George's Chapel, Windsor for over thirty years and was appointed Knight Commander of the Royal Victorian Order for his service. Whilst there, he wrote two orchestral works which were premiered at The Proms and conducted at two coronations. However, he is best-known for his choral music and this week's reflection opens with the anthem "Behold, the tabernacle of God" which was written for the opening of the Royal School of Church Music at Addington Palace, Croydon in 1954. This week's reading is the famous and much-loved parable of the sower from St Matthew's Gospel. Alison reflects that the parable is neither about the sower or indeed the seed but about the soil. We close with the hymn "Come down, O Love Divine" by the 15th century Jesuit poet Bianco da Siena sung to the tune Down Ampney, which was the birth place of its composer, Ralph Vaughan Williams.

Rector's Forum from 7/5/2026 at Church of Our Saviour in Jacksonville, FL.

Today's Bible Verse:"Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, ‘Lord, If another member of the church sins against me, how many times shall I forgive? Up to seven times?’" — Matthew 18:21 When Forgiveness Feels Impossible Matthew 18:21 begins one of Jesus' most well-known teachings on forgiveness. Peter believed he was being generous by asking whether forgiving someone seven times was enough. Instead, Jesus responded by expanding Peter's understanding of grace, teaching that forgiveness is not meant to be limited or counted.

Rector's Forum from 6/28/2026 at Church of Our Saviour in Jacksonville, FL.

In this homily The Rev. Dr. James E. Taylor, Rector of St.George Episcopal Church, discusses the Gospel for the day and what it means to us as Christians.  He says that peopleare hungry and thirsty for the Word of God. It is our duty as Christians to proclaim the Gospel by word and deed. He adds we do that by being welcoming. He notes that Jesus uses the word “welcome” six times in the 3 verses of the day'sGospel. We should exercise compassionate welcoming in times of joy or pain and with whomever we encounter.Send comments to: musingsonfaith@gmail.com.

Today's Bible Verse:"Then he said to his disciples, ‘The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, to send out workers into his harvest field.’" — Matthew 9:37–38 Matthew 9:37–38 captures Jesus’ heart for people and His call for believers to take part in God’s work. As Jesus looked at the crowds, He saw people who were hurting, searching, and in need of guidance. Rather than seeing a problem too large to solve, He saw a harvest ready to be gathered. This passage reminds us that sharing God’s love and truth is not only the responsibility of pastors, missionaries, or ministry leaders. Jesus calls all of His followers to participate in the work of reaching others. The harvest is plentiful, and each believer has a role to play through acts of compassion, encouragement, service, and sharing the hope of Christ.

Today's Bible Verse: "While Jesus was having dinner at Matthew’s house, many tax collectors and sinners came and ate with him and his disciples." — Matthew 9:10 Jesus was never afraid to meet people where they were. In Matthew 9:10, we see Him sitting at a table with those who were often rejected and judged by society. His willingness to spend time with tax collectors and sinners reveals the heart of God — a heart that seeks, welcomes, and restores people. Want to listen without ads?

In this homily The Rev. Dr. James E. Taylor, Rector of St.George Episcopal Church, focuses on the day's Gospel and the gifts given to us by God versus the secular ones to which we are accustomed. He points out that God's gifts are not based on whether a person is deserving or undeserving.  Like the apostles we must have belief, trust, and hope in God. God is with us whether we struggle or succeed and regardlessof what lies ahead of us.Send comments to: musingsonfaith@gmail.com.

Today's Bible Verse:: "Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his seal of approval." — John 6:27 John 6:27 challenges us to examine what we are truly pursuing. After feeding the five thousand, Jesus recognized that many people were following Him because of what He could provide physically. He used this moment to point them toward something greater—a life that is not centered only on temporary needs, but on the eternal nourishment found in Him. Want to listen without ads?

Rector's Forum from 6/7/2026 at Church of Our Saviour in Jacksonville, FL.

March 21, 2008. Cowan, Indiana. After leaving his job at Ball State University, 48-year old Garth Rector returns to his rented farmhouse before he is shot five times inside the kitchen by an intruder who presumably broke into the residence. While there is initial speculation that the crime was a burglary gone wrong, the only item which appears to be stolen is Garth's wedding ring. At the time of the murder, Garth was separated from his wife and had conducted affairs with some other women who had spouses of their own, but while there are a number of persons of interest, investigators do not have enough evidence to implicate any of them. On this week's episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore the unsolved murder of Garth Rector. So if you happen to have any information about this case, please contact the Delaware County Sheriff's Office at (765) 747-7878.

Today’s Bible Verse: “The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands.” — Acts 17:24 Acts 17:24 is part of Paul’s message to the people of Athens, where he introduces them to the one true God. Surrounded by temples, idols, and competing ideas about spirituality, Paul points to a foundational truth: God is the Creator of everything. He is not limited by buildings, traditions, or human understanding. He is the Lord of heaven and earth. Want to listen without ads?

Today Richard's guest is Russell Levenson, author and retired Episcopal minister. Russ shares:The longer I live, I've found I'm still kind of turning things over to the Lordship of Christ. And that is tough. And that requires humility. What am I doing with my time? How am I interacting with others? Does my relationship with others speak of one who walks in Christ?Prayer is the central avenue God uses to transform us. The primary purpose of prayer is to bring us into a life of communion with the Father. That by the power of the Holy Spirit, we are increasingly conformed into the image of the Son. Deep down in every human heart, there's a knowledge of God. And deep down in every human heart, there's a desire to communicate with God. Prayer is the main way in which we develop a relationship with our father in heaven. >>Watch on YouTubeRuss Levenson, Jr. was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama before a call to ministry in the Episcopal Church. After over 30 years of full-time service in congregations in Virginia, Tennessee, Alabama, Louisiana, Florida and Texas, Russ retired in June of 2024. His last post was Rector of St. Martin's Episcopal Church in Houston, Texas. With over 10,000 members, St. Martin's is the largest Anglican/Episcopal Church in the western hemisphere.Russ attributes his pastoral style and traditional evangelical theology to several mentors over the years including Bishop Furman Stough, The Reverends John Claypool, Massey Gentry, Fleming Rutledge, Paul Zahl and his long time friend and mentor, The Late Rev. Dr. John R.W. Stott.Russ is the author of several books including Witness to Dignity: The Life and Faith of George H.W. And Barbara Bush, with a Foreword by Jeb Bush, In God's Grip: What Golf Can Teach us About The Gospel, with a Foreword by Jim Nantz, Witness to Belief: Conversations on Faith and Meaning, which includes personal interviews with Denzel Washington, Amy Grant, Condi Rice, Sam Waterston, Nikki Haley, Jane Goodall and others, and was named a "top ten read in religion and spirituality" for 2025 by Publisher's Weekly.His forthcoming novel, "The Seal," (Sunstone) a spiritually-themed thriller deemed "not for the faint of heart," is scheduled for release in the late summer of 2026.

In October of 1995, something strange was going on inside the Flick home at 302 McNabb Street in Rector, Arkansas. This family was made up of 36-year-old David Flick, his wife 34-year-old Barbara, their daughter 11-year-old Andria Flick, and Barbara’s son 17-year-old Aaron Michael Hodge, who she had from a previous relationship. Barbara was a nurse, and her husband David had a transmission shop that specialized in fixing transmissions. Friends and family said that they were a happy couple. Andria played basketball and did beauty pageants. Aaron was well liked by his friends as well, and both Andria and Aaron were popular at school. Andria, Barbara and David were planning on going to Florida to visit relatives, leaving Aaron at home. And like many teens at home alone, he threw a party. This seems perfectly normal… except that David, Barbara and Andria never arrived in Florida. And several days laters, the police discovered their bodies, all shot to death in their house. On the surface, this appeared to be a perfect family, but detectives quickly discovered that things behind closed doors were far from what they seemed. What happened to turn the seemingly perfect family into a house of horrors?

Today’s Bible Verse “Thomas said to him, ‘Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?’ Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’” — John 14:5–6 (NIV) Overview John 14:5–6 captures one of the most foundational statements Jesus ever made. In a moment filled with uncertainty and questions, Thomas asks honestly what many people still wonder today: How do we know the way? Jesus responds not with a map or a list of rules, but with Himself. Want to listen without ads?

Today’s Bible Verse: “Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs were being done by the apostles.” — Acts 2:43 Acts 2:43 gives us a glimpse into the powerful spiritual atmosphere of the early church after Pentecost. As believers gathered in unity, devotion, prayer, and generosity, God moved among them in undeniable ways. Awe filled the community as miracles, signs, and wonders pointed people toward the power and presence of Jesus Christ. Want to listen without ads?

n 2002, the US Supreme court ruled that executing people with intellectual disabilities is unconstitutional. This was a FEDERAL ruling, which means that all states have to abide by this law. There was a similar law passed in the state of Alabama in 1986, where today’s case takes place. But unfortunately, Governor Bill Clinton and the Alabama judges at the time decided to take the law into their own hands  and enact their own type of justice… So JOIN US as we discuss Rickey Ray Rector.
