In this compelling episode of "Father and Joe," hosts Father Boniface and Joe Rockey delve into the profound concept of what it truly means to make an offering to God during Mass. Often perceived as just the physical gifts like bread and wine, this episode uncovers the depth of offering our entire lives—including our emotions and experiences—as a symbolic gesture transubstantiated into the body and blood of Christ. Joe shares his transformative realization that the offerings are not limited to tangible items but encompass the entirety of our lives, our struggles, and our joys. Father Boniface elaborates on the notion of negativity and how it is an intrinsic part of human life. Drawing from the Psalms and the example of Our Lady's sorrows, he explains how God not only understands these emotions but provides us with the means to express them through sacred scripture. The conversation navigates through the delicate balance of honesty in our relationship with God, examining how these emotions, though perceived as significant in our lives, may not impact God in the same way. Yet, Father Boniface emphasizes that God, being outside of time, provides a pathway for us to offer everything to Him, making our human experience a worthy offering. Ultimately, listeners are invited to embrace the idea that it's not about the perfection of what we offer but the wholehearted surrender of our entire selves to God. The episode concludes with a poignant reminder that the courage to present everything to God—good, bad, and ugly—is central to nurturing a profound and intimate relationship with the divine. Father Boniface encourages a posture of trust, surrender, and honesty, reflecting on our eternal role as God's children, always welcome to bring our whole selves to the altar. This episode inspires listeners to carry this understanding into their lives, fostering a deeper sense of comfort and courage in their spiritual journey.Tags: Spirituality, Faith, Christian Living, Mass, Eucharist, Spiritual Growth, Offering, Transformation, Faith Journey, Emotional Growth, Religious Understanding, Divine Offering, God and Emotions, Relationship with God, Lament in Faith, Childlike Trust, Human Experience, Spiritual Honesty, Spiritual Direction, Religious Life, Scripture and Emotion, Mass offering, Bread and Wine, Transubstantiation, Vulnerability, Trust in God, Spiritual Challenges, Faith in Struggles, God's Presence, Eucharist Understanding, Mass Experience, Sacramental Life, Honest Prayers, Father Boniface Hicks, Joe Rockey, Communal Worship, God and Pain, Spiritual Dialogue, Faith GuidanceHashtags: #Spirituality, #Faith, #ChristianLiving, #Mass, #Eucharist, #SpiritualGrowth, #Offering, #Transformation, #FaithJourney, #EmotionalGrowth, #ReligiousUnderstanding, #DivineOffering, #GodAndEmotions, #RelationshipWithGod, #LamentInFaith, #ChildlikeTrust, #HumanExperience, #SpiritualHonesty, #SpiritualDirection, #ReligiousLife, #ScriptureAndEmotion, #MassOffering, #BreadAndWine, #Transubstantiation, #Vulnerability, #TrustInGod, #SpiritualChallenges, #FaithInStruggles, #GodsPresence, #EucharistUnderstanding, #MassExperience, #SacramentalLife, #HonestPrayers, #FatherBonifaceHicks, #JoeRockey, #CommunalWorship, #GodAndPain, #SpiritualDialogue, #FaithGuidanceThis line is here to correct the site's formatting error.
"Developing a Relationship with God Through Prayer" | Rev. Sam Howard | 9.15.25 by ARC of Carson City, NV
Join Overseer Azizah R. Morrison, M.Div., for When Zion Travails as we continue our September series on Divine Activation with a powerful lesson on Activating Your Relationship with God.Your relationship with God is the most important relationship in your life. Out of it flows your identity, your purpose, and the way you walk in every other relationship. When our relationship with God is broken, our identity is broken, and our lives reflect that brokenness. Revelation of who He is only comes through relationship, and relationship with Him requires covenant and commitment.This teaching will stir you to pursue deeper intimacy with the Father, recommit to your covenant with Him, and receive fresh revelation that brings wholeness and transformation.
Genesis 2 (Made to Matter: Created for Relationship with God) - Phil Adams by Park Community Church
In this week's episode of Finding God, Keana W. Mitchell explores one of the most foundational questions in faith: Are you practicing religion or living in relationship with God? With honesty and spiritual insight, Keana unpacks the difference between following a set of rules and cultivating a personal, transformative connection with the Creator.Listeners will learn:What defines religion: structure, tradition, and external behaviorsWhat defines relationship: intimacy, trust, and spiritual dialogueWhy religion can feel easier but often leaves us spiritually dryWhy relationship is harder but essential to knowing God's heartHow understanding God's character requires more than ritual it requires presenceKeana also shares personal reflections and practical ways to assess where you stand in your spiritual walk. If you've ever felt like you're “doing all the right things” but still feel disconnected from God, this episode will speak directly to your soul.

The culture is shifting, and the season has changed. It can be agitating and frightening, but it means something else, too: Jesus' return is drawing closer. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can be prepared for our Lord's return. The Bible tells us that deception and conflict, both physical and spiritual, will increase as the End of the Age approaches. Pastor Allen shows how we see this in our world today, then he shares God's instructions for standing firm. Living in the truth of God's Word and relying on His wisdom and peace will be essential. We've been asked to overcome a number of daunting things—our own carnal desires, evil, Satan's kingdom—but God hasn't left us alone. We can trust in the Lion of Judah.

Today's Uncertainties Call for a Deepening Personal Relationship with God Through Prayer, Fasting, and Listening MESSAGE SUMMARY: There are times when you need clarity, understanding, knowledge, and insights from the Lord about the specific issues that you are facing. The Lord will speak to you, but sometimes it takes your listening and fasting to hear Him. For example, when Joel received a Word when the land was to be destroyed, he called a fast (i.e. Joel 1:14): “Consecrate a fast; call a solemn assembly. Gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the land to the house of the LORD your God, and cry out to the LORD.”. Some things you are facing in your life must be dealt with by both prayer and fasting. Fasting releases a spiritual power – in your weakness, God is made strong in your life. Daniel's prayer, from Daniel 9:3-5, provides a context for asking direction from God: “Then I turned my face to the Lord God, seeking him by prayer and pleas for mercy with fasting and sackcloth and ashes. I prayed to the LORD my God and made confession, saying, ‘O Lord, the great and awesome God, who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, we have sinned and done wrong and acted wickedly and rebelled, turning aside from your commandments and rules.'". After Jesus responded to the Apostles request of “teach us to pray” by providing the “Lord's Prayer”, Jesus instructed the Apostles and us, in Matthew 6:17-18, how to fast: “But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, that your fasting may not be seen by others but by your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.". Our fasting will be rewarded as a deepening link to God in our personal relationship with Him. TODAY'S PRAYER: Father, I confess that when difficulties and trials come into my life, large or small, I mostly grumble and complain. I realize the trials James talks about are not necessarily “walls,” but they are difficult to bear, nonetheless. Fill me with such a vision of a transformed life, O God, that I might actually consider it “pure joy” when you bring trials my way. I believe, Lord. Help my unbelief. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 94). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, Because of who I am in Jesus Christ, I will not be driven by Resentment. Rather, I will abide in the Lord's Compassion. “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).

Revival Mom | Grow Deeper with God, Encourage children in the Lord, Christian Home
I cannot even tell you how excited I am about today's episode because I get to sit down with my dear friend, Sabrina Hammonds. If you've been around since the early days of Revival Moms, you've heard me talk about her before—God used her in so many ways to confirm and ignite this movement in my own life. Sabrina is a prophetic visibility strategist and the host of the Kingdom Connections Podcast. She works with Christian leaders at the six-figure level who are called to steward real influence in the Kingdom. Through her agency, she helps them become visible—not just for the sake of visibility, but in a way that honors the Lord and multiplies Kingdom impact. But today's conversation? It's not about six-figure leadership. It's about the real-life, behind-the-scenes journey of a Christian mom who just wanted her family to love Jesus. Sabrina vulnerably shares how she used to try to force family devotionals out of frustration, and how the Lord gently invited her to lay it all down and simply pursue Him. We talk about: ✨ The shift from checklists and “shoulds” to a real relationship with God. ✨ How inviting Jesus into everyday motherhood moments—tantrums, chores, even naps—can change everything. ✨ Why your kids will catch more from your example than from anything you try to force. ✨ Practical ways to find God in the middle of the chaos (even if you don't have quiet mornings to yourself!). ✨ The beauty of freedom and grace when we stop striving and simply walk with Him. Friend, this episode is such an encouragement for Christian moms who long to disciple their kids but feel like they're failing. You'll leave feeling lighter, freer, and more confident that God is moving in your home—even when it doesn't look “perfect.” So grab your coffee, curl up, and let's step into this conversation about motherhood, discipleship, revival, and intimacy with Jesus.

Join Profs. Rolf Jacob, Kathryn Schifferdecker, and Karoline Lewis on "I Love to Tell the Story" as they explore the pivotal moment when God reveals the divine name to Moses at the burning bush. In this episode covering the fourth Sunday of the Narrative Lectionary (September 28), our hosts dive deep into Exodus 2:23-3:15, examining Moses' call and the profound revelation of God's name as "I AM." This episode unpacks the gospel message embedded in the Old Testament - how God hears, remembers, looks, and takes notice of suffering. The hosts discuss the relational nature of God's covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and explore the significance of God's willingness to reveal the divine name as an act of intimacy and commitment. Key topics covered: * The preparation for Moses' call through the women in his life * God's response to Israel's cry for help in slavery * The mystery and meaning of God's name "I AM WHO I AM" * Connections to John's Gospel and Jesus' "I AM" statements * Moses' reluctance and excuses when called by God * The importance of curiosity and willingness to "turn aside and see" Whether you're a pastor preparing for Sunday worship, a Bible study leader, or someone interested in narrative theology, this conversation offers fresh insights into one of the most significant encounters between God and humanity in Scripture.

Jesus Followers Are the Enemy's {devil's} Target to Mess You Up and To Destroy Your Relationship with God MESSAGE SUMMARY: The enemy {the evil one, the devil} is always at work seeking to destroy the fruit of the Lord's field and your life. In John10:10, Jesus tells us: “The thief {enemy} comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.”. In 1 Peter 5:8, Peter tells you more about your enemy who is always with you: “Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil {enemy} prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.”. Continue to remember that the enemy is always attempting to mess you up and to destroy your witness. Also, the enemy is always attempting to destroy your relationship with God and to get you to reject God. The enemy does his evil in subtle ways, but his purpose is clear -- the enemy wants you off the right path. The enemy is always at work, and he never sleeps. TODAY'S PRAYER: Father, I confess that when difficulties and trials come into my life, large or small, I mostly grumble and complain. I realize the trials James talks about are not necessarily “walls,” but they are difficult to bear, nonetheless. Fill me with such a vision of a transformed life, O God, that I might actually consider it “pure joy” when you bring trials my way. I believe, Lord. Help my unbelief. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter, Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 94). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM RIGHTEOUS IN GOD'S EYES. God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God. 2 Corinthians 5:21 SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): John10:10-18;1 Peter 5:8-11; Ephesians 4:26-32; Psalms 50b:13-23.

Our Relationship with God the Father, John 5:17-20. Sunday 31st August 25 PM. Bro Brian Rogers
Have you ever wondered if you were really saved — or if you were just going through the motions of religion? In this raw and honest episode of the #MoreThanJustPretty Podcast, I share my personal testimony of realizing that for years I thought I was living as a Christian… but I wasn't truly walking in a real relationship with God. In this video we'll talk about: • The difference between religion vs. relationship with Jesus • Why so many people think they're saved but aren't truly born again • What it actually looks like to live in obedience to God (not culture) • Why Western Christianity often misses the heart of the Gospel • How to know if you're really walking with God or just following traditionThis year, God opened my eyes to what it really means to follow Christ—and it's nothing like the watered-down Christianity the world presents. If you've ever felt unsure about your salvation, or wondered if you're truly living for Jesus, this conversation will challenge and encourage you. Don't just settle for religion. God is calling you into a REAL relationship with Him. If this blessed you, make sure to LIKE, COMMENT, and SUBSCRIBE for more faith-based conversations about purpose, relationships, and walking boldly with God.#Christianity #Testimony #BornAgain #RelationshipWithGod #Obedience #Faith #JesusSaves #WesternChristianity #MoreThanJustPrettyPodcastSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/morethanjustpretty8749/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In this enlightening episode of "Father and Joe", hosts Father Boniface and Joe Rockey delve into the pervasive issue of distractions that challenge our personal focus and spiritual growth in today's hyper-connected world. They explore how instant accessibility, through technology like smartphones and emails, has amplified our vulnerability to constant disruptions, pulling us away from our primary goals and weakening our relationships with ourselves, others, and God.Joe candidly shares a recent personal moment of distraction and links it to a broader cultural challenge where algorithms are designed to capture and fragment our attention. Father Boniface highlights the resulting context switching and energy loss, emphasizing the need for discipline and careful management of our task loads to maintain harmony and efficiency in both professional and personal spheres.The conversation then shifts to the deeper, often overlooked aspect of spiritual connection. Unlike the persistent pings from our digital devices, God's call is subtler, requiring intentional effort to hear amidst the noise. They discuss how cultivating a habit of unplugging from distractions can enhance our ability to listen to God and fortify our spiritual relationship. This episode illustrates how reordering our focus toward God not only enriches personal spirituality but also simplifies our lives, leading to more genuine, meaningful relationships with others.Father Boniface further enlightens us on how aligning ourselves with God's moral law serves as a loud guiding voice, akin to the orchestral harmony that can heal dissonance within our lives. By tuning into God's melody through disciplined practice and conscious effort, where minor virtues like integrity and love can echo through actions even in business practices, we can transform chaos into divine symphony.This episode is a call to action for listeners to embrace the challenge of reducing distractions and deepening their bond with the divine. Embrace the "risk" of living like Christ, they urge, with the promise of discovering a life full of realigned priorities, coherent relationships, and newfound peace.Join Father and Joe as they invite us all to explore the profound benefits of retuning the spiritual strings of our lives to align with the greater symphony that God orchestrates every day.Tags:spiritual growth, God, relationship with God, distractions, technology, focus, discipline, spirituality, personal growth, mindfulness, harmony, technology impact, digital detox, soul care, spiritual awakening, podcast, conversation, Father Boniface, Joe Rockey, daily life, union with God, church habits, modern challenges, divine guidance, mental clarity, inner peace, faith-based, Christian podcast, moral law, conscience, life balance, spiritual priorities, self-improvement, finding peace, life direction, personal development, faith journey, Christian life, God's will, multitasking, simplicity, sacred listening, authenticity, divine orderHashtags:#SpiritualGrowth, #RelationshipWithGod, #OvercomingDistractions, #FocusOnFaith, #Mindfulness, #GodFirst, #ChristianPodcast, #FaithJourney, #FaithBased, #DigitalDetox, #SoulCare, #InnerPeace, #SpiritualAwakening, #GodsWill, #LifeBalance, #FindingHarmony, #ModernChallenges, #DailyLife, #SelfImprovement, #SpiritualDirection, #FaithInFocus, #Simplicity, #SacredListening, #ChristianLife, #LifeDirection, #SoulGrowth, #DivineGuidance, #TechnologyImpact, #Multitasking, #ChristianFaith, #SpiritualPodcast, #MindfulLiving, #AuthenticFaith, #FindingPeace, #LifePurpose, #Clarity, #FaithCommunity, #LifeGoals, #FaithfulLivingThis line is here to correct the site's formatting error.

Jesus Followers Maintain a Constant Presence of Jesus in Their Lives Through Prayer and a Focus on Their Personal Relationship with God MESSAGE SUMMARY: As a Jesus Follower, you must maintain a constant conversation, through prayer, with Jesus; and you must look to see how God is involved in the events surrounding your daily life. If the Lord is in your life, then your life's circumstances will relate to Him. The Psalmist tells us, in Psalms 100:2-5, that God is with you because He made you to: “Serve the LORD with gladness! Come into his presence with singing! Know that the LORD, he is God! It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! For the LORD is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to generations.". Therefore, practicing the presence of Jesus in your life helps you to stay in tune with Jesus' influence in your life. Being in tune with Jesus' presence, in your life, is like listening to an FM radio station – you must tune into the right station and then listen. Tuning into the right station, for the presence of Jesus, requires that you maintain an awareness of your circumstances and their relationship to Jesus. TODAY'S PRAYER: Father, I confess that when difficulties and trials come into my life, large or small, I mostly grumble and complain. I realize the trials James talks about are not necessarily “walls,” but they are difficult to bear, nonetheless.

What if one simple shift in how you pray could shape a child’s whole future? In this episode, we dive into the power of intentional prayer using Luke 2:52 as a guide—praying for wisdom, character, and spiritual favor over the kids we love. We’re all keenly aware of the negative influences surrounding our kids today through social media and culture. But instead of worrying, what if we became warriors over our kids through prayer? This week’s episode makes prayer for our kids easy and do-able. We also talk about the importance of encouragement and how one teachable moment at a fairground reminded me of what not to do to help our kids love God. I share four things even well-meaning parents do that accidentally hinder our child’s spiritual growth rather than help it. With personal stories and practical tools, this conversation will inspire you to pray with purpose, speak life, and surround your child with mentors who reflect God’s grace. You’re not parenting alone—and God’s got big plans ahead. Whether they’re toddlers or grown adults, your prayers matter.

In this thought-provoking episode of "Father and Joe," hosts Father Boniface and Joe Rockey delve into the profound meaning of sacrifice in the context of spiritual growth and our relationship with God. Building upon past discussions, they explore the deeper implications of the phrase "accept these sacrifices at my hands" uttered during the Mass.Father Boniface clarifies that this sacrificial act extends beyond the bread and wine to encompass every aspect of our being. They engage in a rich dialogue about how love and sacrifice are intrinsically linked, emphasizing that true love inherently involves sacrifice for others and for God. By examining the sacrifice of Christ as the model, Father Boniface offers insights into how we can learn to sacrifice in our everyday lives, using this process as an opportunity for personal transformation and spiritual alignment.The conversation also navigates the human condition—our desire for tangible outcomes from our sacrifices, and the challenge of embracing uncertainty in the midst of suffering. Drawing on the wisdom of Viktor Frankl and Pope Francis, they discuss the importance of a "sufficient why" in enduring hardships and the mysterious, global impact of our sacrificial acts.

In this enlightening episode of "Father and Joe," hosts Father Boniface Hicks and Joe Rockey delve into the profound journey of transforming from mere onlookers to active participants in the Mass. This transformation is likened to the difference between watching a NASCAR race and being one of the drivers, feeling every exhilarating moment. Father Boniface emphasizes that this journey is not an all-or-nothing proposition; it's about making a choice. He contrasts the utilitarian view of the Mass with its true essence—an ever-growing relationship, much like a marriage, which flourishes the deeper it becomes.The conversation addresses common objections, such as the misconception that every Mass is the same, and highlights how each experience is unique, just as no two days with a friend are ever identical. Father Boniface eloquently speaks about the Mass as a dynamic relationship, not a transactional experience. It's about the opportunity to sacrifice, love, and give everything for something greater, echoing the Christian value of martyrdom—offering oneself entirely out of love.Together, they explore the structure of the Mass, from the initial acknowledgment of sins to the transformative power of the Liturgy of the Word and the Eucharist. This episode uncovers how each stage of the Mass is designed to guide us from external observance to internal engagement. They discuss practical steps for entering deeper into the Mass, recognizing the signs and symbols that catch our attention, and ultimately meeting Christ through the Holy Communion. As Father Boniface mentions, staying in this relationship, even when not fully engaged, brings profound growth, both spiritually and personally.Father Boniface also touches on his book, "The Hidden Power of Silence in the Mass," inviting listeners to dive deeper into the beauty and purpose of the Mass. This episode serves as both a spiritual guide and a heartfelt conversation, encouraging everyone to reclaim their faith journey and build a stronger union with God, whether they've drifted away or seek to deepen their existing relationship.Tags: Mass, Spirituality, Church, God, Eucharist, Relationship with God, Faith Journey, Active Participation, Worship, Spiritual Growth, Community, Catholicism, Marriage Analogy, Transformation, Sacrifice, Liturgy, Eucharistic Prayer, Encountering Christ, Holy Communion, Personal Growth, Divine Presence, Christian Values, Faith Obstacles, Spiritual Direction, Handbook to Mass, Engaging Worship, Religious Practice, Catholic Faith, Spiritual Reflection, Deepening Faith, Mass Structure, Spiritual Conversations, Faith and Love, Building Relationships, Finding Purpose, Mass Experience, Christian Life, Spiritual Insights, Worship Guidance, Faith RenewalHashtags: #Mass #Spirituality #Church #God #Eucharist #FaithJourney #ActiveParticipation #Worship #SpiritualGrowth #Community #Catholicism #MarriageAnalogy #Transformation #Sacrifice #Liturgy #HolyCommunion #PersonalGrowth #ChristianValues #FaithObstacles #SpiritualDirection #MassHandbook #EngagingWorship #ReligiousPractice #CatholicFaith #SpiritualReflection #DeepeningFaith #MassStructure #SpiritualConversations #FaithAndLove #BuildingRelationships #FindingPurpose #MassExperience #ChristianLife #SpiritualInsights #WorshipGuidance #FaithRenewalThis line is here to correct the site's formatting error.

The single season can often feel like a desert, where joy, love, and contentment seem far off. The single season does not have to be a time of feeling dry and alone.
