Podcasts about Renewal

The Gospel of John is one of the most beloved and influential books of the Bible. It describes “the remarkable invasion of the world by God” (G. Burge). It's written with the express purpose “that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God” (John 20:31). In this preaching series, we journey through the Fourth Gospel, seeking to better understand who Jesus Christ is and why he's worthy of our trust, worship, and obedience.

Our faith is transcendent. Our God is above all things. We often covet things related to home, family, money, and entertainment. But we are connected to the living God in the Person of Christ. (Hebrews 13:5-10; Ecclesiastes 12:1) Speaker(s): Thomas Schaller, James Dadidis Sermon 12206 11:00 AM on 11/28/2021

We were made for God. We often cover things related to home, family, money, and entertainment. Today's religious atmosphere is rehashed paganism for the most part. But we are connected to the living God in the Person of Christ. (Hebrews 13:5-10; Amos 6:12) Speaker(s): Thomas Schaller, Eugene Davis Sermon 12205 9:00 AM on 11/28/2021

Today we talk about the peace that is found in the early morning. 

The easiest life is when you are comfortable discovering where you are wrong and remaining teachable. The spirit of repentance is a willingness to give up your opinions. Jesus is the door to new life. No matter how dead you feel you've become when you experience the breath of God, you can come out of your “grave” and suddenly have life. Renewal is everywhere in scripture, and it's the process of what happens when God is present.

The entirety of Midlake‘s forthcoming release, For the Sake of Bethel Woods – its intimacy, fragility, and ultimately determined resolve – has the feel of a poignant scrapbook put together with tremendous care. The band chose to work with producer John Congleton as they gathered material for their fifth release, their first since Antiphon (2013), […]

Everyone longs to know who God is. We wonder what God is like and why He chooses the things He does. Isaiah, an Old Testament prophet, helps us see the heart and character of God. When we grasp the glory and character of God our hearts trust God more fully. This week we journey through Isaiah 55 and discover how God can heal and restore the broken parts of our lives. Text: Isaiah 55:1-13 ESV Speaker: Michael Bayne

In 2020 the United States experienced a nearly 30 percent rise in homicides from 2019. That's the single biggest one-year increase since we started keeping national records in 1960. And violence has continued to rise well into 2021.To deny or downplay the seriousness of this spike is neither morally justified nor politically wise. Violence takes lives, traumatizes children, instills fear, destroys community life and entrenches racial and economic inequality. Public opinion responds in kind: Polling indicates that Americans are increasingly worried about violent crime. And if November's state and local campaigns were any indication, public safety will be a defining issue in upcoming election cycles.Liberals and progressives need an answer to the question of how to handle rising violence. But that answer doesn't need to involve a return to the punitive, tough-on-crime approach that has devastated Black and brown communities for decades and led millions of people to take to the streets in protest last summer.Patrick Sharkey is a sociologist at Princeton University and the author of “Uneasy Peace: The Great Crime Decline, the Renewal of City Life, and the Next War on Violence.” The central claim of his work is this: Police are effective at reducing violence, but they aren't the only actors capable of doing so. Sharkey has studied community-based models for addressing violence in places as varied as rural Australia and New York City. As a result, he has developed a compelling, evidence-backed vision of how cities and communities can tackle violent crime without relying heavily on police.So this conversation is about what an alternative approach to addressing the current homicide spike could look like and all the messy, difficult questions it raises. It also explores the causes of the homicide spike, why Sharkey thinks policing is ultimately an “unsustainable” solution to crime, how New York City managed to reduce gun violence by 50 percent while reducing arrests and prison populations, whether it's possible to overcome the punitive politics of rising crime, why America has such abnormally high levels of violent crime in the first place and more. Mentioned:“Community and the Crime Decline: The Causal Effect of Local Nonprofits on Violent Crime” by Patrick Sharkey, Gerard Torrats-Espinosa and Delaram Takyar “Reducing Violence Without Police: A Review of Research Evidence”“Social Fabric: A New Model For Public Safety and Vital Neighborhoods” by Elizabeth Glazer and Patrick Sharkey“Can Precision Policing Reduce Gun Violence?

The coming years, decades and perhaps generations, will be faced with the enormous task of walking through utterly unknown territory. We are required to develop another set of skills and ways of seeing as we descend ever further into the collective unknown. Join TNS Host Michael Lerner with Soul Activist and Author Francis Weller for a conversation about the simple things that will enable us to navigate through the Long Dark.

The words "this wide, beautiful, crazy world of ours" have been part of my introduction for this podcast for years. In my experience, this is an accurate picture and yet the meaning and context for the descriptors: "wide," "beautiful," and "crazy,"--especially "crazy," ---has changed over time. Many things happen that surprise me. Developments in all areas of life that I didn't imagine, let alone predict. A level of chaos and uncertainty that I never expected to entertain in my lifetime. Among the pieces of good news, and there are many, is this: we're in the boat together my friend. Called to re-evaluate and re-imagine what has importance and value. Called to change. The company that you keep and the places that you look for guidance will determine how you feel about this present moment.This line of thinking brought me to the story that I want to tell you today, a fairy tale called "Iron John," or "Iron Hans" if you look for the Grimm Brother's version. This fairy tale resurfaced in the popular imagination in early the 1990s when Robert Bly shared it with men in need of story work. Bly also published a book under that title that you might find interesting. I'm going to tell the story in two parts over two episodes, so you and I both have some time to let the details and images of the story sink in. Time to imagine with and through it. This is part 1.  I'll tell the rest of "Iron John" in the next episode.Now on with the story....Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/mythmatterspodcast)

Dave "The Crisis of Reciprocity" VanVickle and I get real about the struggles we are facing in our parishes as we learn how to navigate sacramental and faith formation programs in a culture impacted by the pandemic. We discuss the relationship between renewal and reform in the Church, and explain how in the next couple of episodes we'll be diving into an important recent Vatican document- The Reciprocity between Faith and Sacraments. Snippet from the Show "The Holy Spirit does the renewal in the Church, and people docile to the Holy Spirit then reform the Church." We want to hear from you!
