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 heartfelt episode, we continue the conversation on how the death of our child impacts our relationship with God—specifically shifting from a transactional relationship to an intimate one built on trust, even when we don't understand Him.

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. Father Boniface highlights the iterative journey of discipleship, where Jesus continually helps us correct course and align more closely with the divine model.Ending on an encouraging note, this episode aims to deepen your understanding of sacrifice as an integral part of love and spiritual growth. Whether you are preparing for the next Mass or reflecting on life's struggles, this discussion offers valuable insights into how God transforms our offerings through His grace. Join Father Boniface and Joe as they invite you to view sacrifice not as mere suffering, but as a powerful tool for personal and communal transformation.Tags:sacrifice, spiritual growth, relationship with God, Father Boniface, Joe Rockey, love and sacrifice, Mass, holy Eucharist, spiritual journey, discipleship, Viktor Frankl, Pope Francis, mystery of faith, personal transformation, spiritual alignment, religious podcast, Catholic teachings, Christian life, divine model, self-offering, mercy, spiritual direction, meaningful relationship, Christian doctrine, spiritual reflection, community life, religious service, divine love, intercession, confessional life, grace, suffering, faith journey, crucified love, worship, Christian faith, spiritual guidance, faith community, transformative power, sacrifice of Christ, act of love, spiritual insights, union with GodHashtags:#Sacrifice #SpiritualGrowth #RelationshipWithGod #FatherBoniface #JoeRockey #LoveAndSacrifice #Mass #HolyEucharist #SpiritualJourney #Discipleship #ViktorFrankl #PopeFrancis #MysteryOfFaith #PersonalTransformation #SpiritualAlignment #ReligiousPodcast #CatholicTeachings #ChristianLife #DivineModel #SelfOffering #Mercy #SpiritualDirection #MeaningfulRelationship #ChristianDoctrine #SpiritualReflection #CommunityLife #ReligiousService #DivineLove #Intercession #ConfessionalLife #Grace #Suffering #FaithJourney #CrucifiedLove #Worship #ChristianFaith #SpiritualGuidance #FaithCommunity #TransformativePower #SacrificeOfChrist #ActOfLove #SpiritualInsights #UnionWithGodThis line is here to correct the site's formatting error.

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.

Intro:Good morning! We're navigating a tough week, having just hosted a funeral for Drew Hall, deeply loved in our community, who passed away in a climbing accident. Our hearts are with his wife and daughters. Next week, our Exeter church family, who we just prayed off, joins us for baptisms – this is the life of the church: joy and sorrow, but Jesus is always with us. Today, we delve into listening, a profound theme from Proverbs.Scripture References: Proverbs 2:1-5, Proverbs 5:1-2, Proverbs 22:17, Proverbs 13:1, Proverbs 15:31-32, Proverbs 4:20, Proverbs 5:1, Genesis 1, Psalm 33:6, Deuteronomy 6, Genesis 21:17, Proverbs 15:29, Luke 24:25-32Key Points:God Is Always Speaking, Calling Us to Listen:Proverbs emphasizes God's constant communication, urging us to be attentive listeners.The Seattle School of Theology's daily "chime" ritual reminds students their work is done in the presence of a living, speaking God.Listening for Wisdom and Instruction:Proverbs consistently calls us to listen for knowledge and understanding (Proverbs 2:1-5, 5:1-2, 22:17).It also stresses receiving instruction and discipline (Proverbs 13:1, 15:31-32). Embracing God's loving discipline transforms us.Proverbs' urgent tone (e.g., Proverbs 4:20, 5:1) highlights the gravity of listening to God's words. It's the single most important thing we can learn.Listening in God's Grand Story:Creation: From Genesis 1 ("Let there be light"), God speaks first. Our design is to listen and respond. Keith Anderson notes God's voice in creation is the first evidence of His love. Intentional listening means emptying our agenda, being curious, and present. Grab a "Five Ways to Practice Listening" card at the connect table!Old Testament (Shema): Deuteronomy 6 commands, "Listen, O Israel... love the Lord your God." Listening precedes loving. God's listening (e.g., Hagar and Ishmael in Genesis 21:17) isn't for His knowing, but to express His love, care, and that we are known (Proverbs 15:29). What He hears is never a barrier to His love.Jesus' Incarnation: Jesus often said, "Let anyone who has ears hear." The Road to Emmaus (Luke 24:25-32) shows disciples, disillusioned by Christ's crucifixion, unknowingly walking with Jesus. As He spoke, their hearts "burned." Encountering Jesus opens our ears and hearts to God's voice. Proximity to Jesus happens in simple, earthy ways (walking, sharing a meal, being with companions).The Problem is Connection, Not God's Speaking:Like the story of Pete Gregg unknowingly broadcasting his podcast, God is always speaking. The problem is often our connection.Busyness, disappointment, a cold heart, or distance from Jesus can hinder our listening. Our job is to approach God with intentionality, love, and closeness to Jesus.Conclusion:Our ability to listen to God is foundational. From creation to Jesus, God's story shows He actively speaks and listens out of love. This security allows us to confidently listen to Him.Call to Action:As we come to the table, remember Christ's presence bridges all distance. If your heart feels cold, or you need to know God hears you, pray with us. We'll worship and take communion, remembering Jesus, who perfectly embodied listening and drew close to us, offering new life. Be responsive to prayer; we want to connect you to Jesus.

Our Relationship with God Is Based Solely on Our Relationship with God, and He Desires to Have a Relationship with Each of Us MESSAGE SUMMARY: We may have a Godly father and mother, but our relationship with God is not based on their relationship with God; it is solely our relationship with God. God has given us covenants as a way to build our relationships. The people of Israel found out quickly that when they desired to live their lives apart from God that they brought disaster upon their lives. God is a covenant God. He will bless us if we obey Him; but if we disobey him, it leaves us to the consequences of our sin. TODAY'S PRAYER: Keeping the Sabbath, Lord, will require a lot of changes in the way I am living life. Teach me, Lord, how to take the next step with this in a way that fits my unique personality and situation. Help me to trust you with all that will remain unfinished and to enjoy my humble place in your very large world. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 129). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT. If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!

WOW!!!
Jesus Gave His Followers the Earth's Most Intimate Relationship – a Personal Relationship with God, the Universe's Creator MESSAGE SUMMARY: The idea of an intimate relationship is to truly know someone; and you are given the privilege of knowing God, the Creator of the Universe. You are given the privilege of being close to Him and to have a personal and dynamic relationship with the God of the universe. Your relationship with God is made possible through Jesus the Christ and God's gracious gift of the Holy Spirit. Paul, in Romans 8:37-39, succinctly defines God's uncompromising love for you through His personal relationship with you: “No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.". Jesus puts the Holy Spirit in your life so that you can commune and have personal fellowship with God -- the most intimate relationship on earth.

Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, Because of who I am in Jesus Christ, I will not be driven by Loneliness. Rather, I will abide in the Lord's Presence. “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).

What we call Jesus reveals how we see Him—and how we see Him shapes everything. In this special family service, Pastor Warren opens with a fun moment with the kids, then leads us into the most important question Jesus ever asked: “But who do you say that I am?” Some called Him a carpenter. Some, a good teacher. Some, a prophet. But none of those were enough. Pastor Warren walks through Scripture to show how people saw Jesus—and how Jesus sees us. God doesn't just call us servants. He calls us Children. He calls us Friends. He calls us More Than Conquerors. This message reminds us that identity is mutual. What you believe about Jesus determines how you live. And what He calls you? Changes everything.

Jesus Gave His Followers the Holy Spirit to Walk with Them in Their Personal Relationship with God MESSAGE SUMMARY: Isaiah tells us about Jesus Followers' communications with the Holy Spirit in Isaiah 30:21: "And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, ‘This is the way, walk in it,' when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left.". We know, from the New Testament, that Jesus Followers are given the Holy Spirit to walk with them -- "a voice behind you". Since the Holy Spirit takes up residence in you, the way the Lord speaks to you is through the inward witness of the Holy Spirit -- the Spirit will speak, and you will know that it is the Lord. In John 14:26, Jesus reminds us about His promise, to His followers, of the “Helper” (Holy Spirit): “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.”. Additionally, in John 16-7, Jesus tells us that not only will the Holy Spirit be your “Helper”, the Holy Spirit will be your “Comforter”: “Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.". TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, I now take a deep breath and stop. So often I miss your hand and gifts in my life because I am preoccupied and anxious. Grant me the power to pause each day and each week to simply rest in your arms of love. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 132). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, Because of who I am in Jesus Christ, I will not be driven by Hatred. Rather, I will abide in the Lord's Love. “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).

Since Your Judgment Is Coming, Are You Doing All You Can to Continue Growing Your Relationship with God? MESSAGE SUMMARY: Jesus tells you about the certainty of your Judgment in John 5:25,29: “Truly, truly, I say to you, an hour is coming, and is now here, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live . . . and come out, those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment.". Since Judgment is coming, are you doing all you can to keep your relationship with the Lord growing? Given certain Judgment for all, a primary purpose of the Church is to lead people into a growing relationship with the Lord. You must be constantly growing and nurturing your faith in Jesus. There is a day when we will all be judged by the Lord – do not you think you can wait until the last minute to have a real relationship with Jesus. TODAY'S PRAYER: Father, when I read even part of the story of Job, I too am overwhelmed by your “wildness.” Your ways and timing are beyond me. Job moved from hearing about you to having “seen you.” Lead me, Lord, on a pathway so that I too can pray as Job prayed: “My ears had heard of you, but now my eyes have seen you” (Job 42:5). In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 89). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, because I am filled with the Holy Spirit, I will not be controlled by my Inconsistencies. Rather, I will walk in the Spirit's fruit of Faithfulness. “The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” (Galatians 5:22f).

It is easy to forget what is most important. Truly, everything in our Christian life flows from our relationship with God. We don't want to take for granted the gift of having a personal relationship with God. Knowing God and praying is a two-way street, and there is no substitute for time alone with God. The closeness of drawing near to God is the source for everything good in life.

Mario has 3 children and 7 grandchildren. During Mario's accomplished career he won many races and championships in various forms of auto racing. Mario talks about how he and his twin brother formed a love for car racing early in life. He lost a good friend who crashed in a race and Mario relied on God and the support of his wife during adversities. Mario won the Long Beach Grand Prix four times and proudly talks about his sons, Michael and Jeff, also competing in Long Beach, CA. Mario's uncle was a Catholic priest, and he affectionately attributes his safety in racing to “Uncle Priest” watching over him from heaven. Mario's good friend Fr. Phil de Rea celebrated Mass for his racing team before many races. Mario is looking forward to a new venture starting next year when he will be a consultant and board member with the new Cadillac Formula 1 team. For Mario, a relationship with God is not complicated, providing strength for him, and helping him avoid disasters throughout his racing career. #catholicsports, #marioandretti, #autoracing, #autoracinglegend #AcuraGrandPrixofLongBeach, #CadillacFormula1Team

Cultivate a deep, intimate relationship with God through Prayer. God likes you and wants to spend time with you. In "The Fundamentals of Prayer," Duane Sheriff teaches that prayer is not about religious rituals but a way to connect with God and experience supernatural breakthroughs. Prayer serves as a pathway to knowing God personally, as reflected in Jesus' words in John 17:3, which states that eternal life is about knowing the Father.https://pastorduane.com/fundamentals-of-prayer/
During Born Wild Weekend at Cherry Hills Community Church, Todd Pierce from Riding High Ministries shared a moving message about our relationship with God. Using the live illustration of taming an unbroken horse on stage, he showed how God patiently pursues us, even in our resistance and fear. As the horse slowly began to trust and respond, it reflected the journey of surrender and connection God desires with each of us. Todd emphasized that God invites us into relationship through love and grace. The message powerfully demonstrated that even in our wildest, most broken moments, God is near—ready to redeem and restore.
For Jesus Followers, Fasting, with Food, Will Symbolize a Victory Over Oneself and Solidify a Personal Relationship with God MESSAGE SUMMARY: In the early Christian Church, which was under great stress and constant physical danger, God's direction and blessing was needed. Therefore, fasting was considered by Church leaders as a key element of their communion with God when they needed both His direction and blessing, as we find in Acts 14:23: “And when they had appointed elders for them in every church, with prayer and fasting they committed them to the Lord in whom they had believed.". As a challenge, "consider the food issue" in your life, especially when you need God's direction in your life, because food has such a stronghold on us. Fasting and tithing can significantly deepen your personal relationship with God because fasting is not easy; but success in fasting, especially with food, can symbolize your victory over yourself and solidify your commitment to your personal relationship with God. TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, Sabbath rest is truly an unbelievable gift! Thank you that there is nothing I can do to earn your love; it comes without any strings attached. As I close my eyes for these few minutes before you, all I can say is, thank you! In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 133). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM FORGIVEN. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9 SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): Matthew 4:1-2; Matthew 6:16-18; 2 Samuel 12:15-17; Psalms144:1-15.

In this week's episode, Ken celebrates his 35th wedding anniversary and reflects on the deeper spiritual connections that come from moving beyond a checklist approach to living the gospel. Drawing on personal conversations and church experiences, Ken explores how many of us—especially within the culture of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints—tend to view our relationship with God as transactional, focusing on rules and guidelines just to check off the boxes. He shares his thoughts on why it's important to transition from this checklist mentality to building an authentic, meaningful relationship with the divine. Ken also invites listeners to consider the motivations behind their actions, both in spiritual practices and everyday relationships, encouraging a thoughtful shift toward deeper connections. Join Ken as he digs into these sweet nuggets of insight and offers an invitation to make your spiritual journey a little more meaningful.Please share this episode with someone who needs to hear it.
