Spring Equinox (2026) emerges with blessings from Mercury stationing direct, and a cosmic infusion from the North Node in Pisces. A new season of alignment is here, asking that we hold our trouble with the same care that we hold our hopes for the future. A portal of potential is opening, as the collective moves through a profound restructuring, coalescing with the Saturn-Pluto sextile. As witches, spiritual folk, and future ancestors, we are tasked with centering care, building networks rooted in healing, and casting spells for the liberation of all people. Currently, there are terrible oppressive forces enacting so much harm on a global scale, and we must face reality, honor our fears, while dreaming, rebuilding, and seeding fields of renewal. Witches to the front!
The Poco a Poco Podcast with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal
Episode 289 - An Unfading Mercy Do you ever feel stuck confessing the same sins over and over again? Continuing their reflection on the Prodigal Son, the friars explore a powerful truth: God's mercy isn't a one-time moment, it's something we encounter again and again. Like a path worn into the ground, the Father continually goes out to meet His children, never tiring, never holding back. In this episode, they reflect on what it means that God's mercy is "new every morning", and how His love doesn't diminish, no matter how many times we return. For those who struggle with discouragement, shame, or the feeling of "starting over," this is a reminder that the Father's embrace is always full, always real, and always waiting. Join us as we rediscover a mercy that never fades and a Father who never stops coming to meet us.

Coming to Jesus means repenting and resting.Freedom and authority seem like opposites, but they're not. We assume that submitting to a master means losing our freedom, yet the opposite is true. In this sermon, we explore how, because Jesus is Lord, we can live in freedom — not freedom to do whatever we want, but freedom from rules that crush and harshness that destroys.
Sermon by Fr. Bob Fabey4th Sunday of LentPut to Death SeriesDiscussion QuestionsWhen did you first notice Lust?How do you relate to Romans 7?15 For I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate… For I have the desire to do what is right, but not the ability to carry it out. 19 For I do not do the good I want, but the evil I do not want is what I keep on doing…Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?If Lust is objectification and requires people to be objects of either sexual desire or emotional fantasy, how does a biblical view of humanity help fight it?David and Bathsheba, Joseph and Potiphar's wife, and Jesus at the well with the Samaritan woman all give insight into Lust, our response, and how God might want us to seek him. Which story impacts you the most?One act of obedience—one moment of chastity—can become the beginning of a story telling us of God's goodness and faithfulness.We rarely see the full fruit of obedience in the moment. But when we choose faithfulness over temptation, God is often doing far more with that obedience than we could ever see.How might God use one act of obedience (vs. one act of disobedience) in your life? How might that lead to freedom, healing, and beauty?What is something you can do to allow God to transform our thirst into His abundance?Renewal of mind, fast, confess? Other?Remember and spend time with this scripture, and allow God to give you what you need.“Come, everyone who thirsts, come to the waters; and he who has no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.2 Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread, and your labor for that which does not satisfy? Listen diligently to me, and eat what is good, and delight yourselves in rich food.6 “Seek the Lord while he may be found; call upon him while he is near; 7 let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the Lord, that he may have compassion on him, and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. 8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. 9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts."

Frustrated by church meetings that waste time and go nowhere? Listen to this podcast. Get Road to Renewal: https://glnk.app/go/NVe_rIO7sLzF ___ In this episode, Ron Huntley explains why many parish meetings fail—and how leaders can fix them by building a clear meeting structure that develops people and strengthens mission. Drawing from real coaching conversations with parish leaders, Ron walks through the four key meeting platforms that help healthy churches multiply leadership and maintain alignment: • Leadership team meetings • One-on-one meetings • Team meetings • All-staff meetings When these meetings are structured well, they build prayer, trust, clarity, and accountability across the parish. But when meetings lack purpose, they waste time, frustrate staff, and stall renewal. If you want your parish to grow in leadership and fruitfulness, your meeting structure matters more than you think. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why most parish meetings fail • The difference between leadership meetings and team meetings • How one-on-one meetings prevent leadership bottlenecks • What all-staff meetings should actually accomplish • Why administrative teams are critical for healthy ministry • How leadership teams maintain alignment and vision • Why great meetings multiply leaders and strengthen mission Resources mentioned: Road to Renewal: https://glnk.app/go/NVe_rIO7sLzF If this conversation helped you, consider sharing it with a pastor or parish leader who wants to see renewal in their church. ___ You can also listen to the podcast weekly on Spotify and Apple Podcasts!

The path to renewing the Canada–United States–Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) appears to be facing stronger headwinds as the renewal timeline winds down. In a fireside chat at the Canadian Crops Convention in Toronto this week, U.S. Ambassador to Canada, Pete Hoekstra, joined Erin Gowriluk of the Canada Grains Council to discuss the status of the Canada–U.S....

Burnout is a silent crisis that often hides behind faithfulness, especially among those serving others while quietly running on empty. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar confront the unseen pressure carried by pastors, leaders, and faithful believers who struggle to say no and rarely step aside to rest. The guys remind listeners that even Jesus called His disciples to come away and rest, modeling the need for both physical and spiritual renewal. Many assume those they admire are immune to exhaustion, yet the burden of ministry can quietly erode joy and clarity when limits are ignored.The guys explore how burnout is often rooted in a lack of abiding in Christ rather than mere overwork. Mark shares that when prayer and communion with the Lord diminish, pressure mounts, and running on empty feels normal. Intentional prayer, written requests, and persistent seeking restore perspective and remind believers of God's faithfulness. Oscar reflects on seasons of burnout tied to conflict and disappointment in ministry, recognizing that even faithful effort must be grounded in the reapplication of the gospel. Community tension, envy, and self-seeking reveal the need for repentance and a renewed vision of Christ. The guys examine how sin and self-righteousness can quietly fuel exhaustion. Wandering thoughts and hidden rebellion rob believers of peace, while striving to earn God's favor produces spiritual fatigue. Grace must move from concept to reality, transforming discipline into delight. Love for God and neighbor becomes the fuel that revives weary hearts, shifting focus away from perfectionism and performance. Legalism and antinomianism both distort the gospel and leave souls restless, yet adoption in Christ frees believers from slavery to self. Rest flows from knowing the love of God deeply and personally, not merely affirming it intellectually.Finally, the guys offer practical encouragement for those carrying heavy loads. True rest involves both body and soul, embracing the Sabbath principle and admitting weakness before the Lord and trusted community. E.Z. reflects on the strain of overwhelming responsibility and the danger of carrying practical burdens alone. The guys urge believers to speak up, seek help, and humble themselves rather than suffer silently. They also call churches and families to support one another actively, lightening the load through encouragement and tangible care. Burnout does not disqualify a believer but can become an invitation to deeper dependence, renewed love, and lasting rest in Christ.Send a textThanks for listening!

Joy isn't something you chase. It's something you notice, when you finally stop, put down your phone, and look around. In this episode, Peter Fenger sits down with Hiroko Yoda, a Tokyo-born cultural historian, writer, and journalist who has spent decades making Japanese spirituality, folklore, and tradition feel alive and accessible for Western audiences. A certified Shinto cultural historian and former Miko shrine dancer, Hiroko has authored and co-authored numerous books exploring Japan's rich spiritual heritage, and co-founded AltJapan Co., Ltd., a creative bridge helping Japanese storytellers in video games, anime, manga, and film share their work with the world. Her latest book, “Eight Million Ways to Happiness: Wisdom for Inspiration and Healing from the Heart of Japan”, is at once a memoir, a travel log, and a cultural deep dive. Drawing on the Shinto concept of kami, the countless unseen presences said to inhabit everything from mountains and oceans to the words we speak, Hiroko invites readers to loosen their grip on rigid ideas of belief and discover spirituality as something far more flexible, practical, and personal. Part grief journey, part cultural history, the book shows how small rituals, reverence for nature, and a spirit of play can make us feel less alone, even in the hardest seasons of life. Today, we explore what it means to live as though everything has a spirit, and why that simple shift in perspective might be one of the most powerful tools we have.

Do you find it harder than ever to focus, pray, or pursue the things that really matter? In this episode, Fr Columba explores how constant stimulation and “fast dopamine” habits like endless scrolling can quietly undermine our motivation, discipline, and spiritual life. He explains why the Christian life depends on learning to embrace slower, harder practices like prayer, perseverance, and meaningful relationships. When we step away from cheap rewards and begin to pursue what is truly good, our hearts regain the capacity for peace, purpose, and intimacy with God.
Illuminated is Radio 4's home for powerful, original audio storytelling - and recently we've heard from listeners who were moved by a documentary called Functioning, about the effect of alcohol addiction on two women's lives. Andrea Catherwood talks to the programme's producer Jodie Taylor, and Radio 4 documentary commissioner Hugh Levinson, and hears a remarkable insight into how the programme came to be.Feedback's listeners are pretty clued up when it comes to giving their thoughts to the BBC, but we came across one last week who seemed to know more than most - as it turned out, he did a PhD on charter renewal. Andrea talks to Dr Tom Chivers, academic at Goldsmiths, University of London, about what the BBC can do to reach its audience during a consultation that could result in radical change.And following our discussion of news avoidance on last week's programme, we hear from a listener who has discovered his own method for avoiding news that feels excessive, or irrelevant.Presenter: Andrea Catherwood Producer: Pauline Moore Assistant Producer: Rebecca Guthrie Executive Producer: David PrestA Whistledown Scotland production for BBC Radio 4

In this episode of Americana Podcast: The 51st State, Robert Earl Keen sits down with Billy Strings to talk about learning to play, the craft of songwriting, and the evolving world of Americana music. Born William Apostol and raised in rural Michigan, Billy Strings grew up surrounded by bluegrass. By the time he was a teenager, his blistering flatpicking had already earned him a reputation as a prodigy among pickers and players. Years of relentless practice and countless small gigs eventually carried him from Midwestern bars and festivals to some of the biggest stages in roots music. For years, bluegrass lived mostly in whispers. You might hear it referenced in liner notes, spot it in a citation, or see it pop up in the occasional New Yorker cartoon. But something has changed. The conversation has gotten louder, and the reality is harder to ignore. Bluegrass music is considered cool now. It should not come as much of a surprise. Bluegrass has always carried a rich and vibrant history stretching back to the early twentieth century. It is a genre that holds tight to regional identity, creative freedom, and remarkable musicianship. At the same time, it has always fostered a deeply communal culture of learning, where songs, skills, and stories move naturally from one player to another. What the music needed was a new voice. New chapters. New songs added to the bluegrass canon. That is where Billy Strings comes in. Over the past several years, Billy has emerged as one of the most influential figures in modern bluegrass. His albums Home and Renewal helped push the genre into new territory while earning widespread acclaim, including multiple Grammy Awards, with Home winning Best Bluegrass Album. His live shows have developed a devoted following, blending traditional bluegrass musicianship with the improvisational spirit of jam bands and the storytelling roots of Americana. Billy Strings makes music that is rooted in bluegrass but stretches well beyond it. His songwriting reflects a deep understanding of the power of a well-crafted song. His lyrics move easily between personal reflection, observations about economic and ecological change, and the everyday questions that shape a life. All of it is supported by remarkable musicianship and production, where intricate playing and layered sonic details often create moments that feel almost like soundscapes. Trying to describe how good he is can be difficult. Some things are simply easier to hear than to explain. Listen to the full episode on all streaming platforms or at Americanapodcast.com.

The renewed mind is not behavioral modification, but it is a profound supernatural work of the Spirit that occurs when our hearts are softened and our minds are changed by the love of God demonstrated towards us in the cross of Christ.
Why Minister to the Human Spirit: Brokenness, Renewal, and Pre-Adamic Trauma!Dan argues that ministering to the human spirit is biblically necessary. He challenges the view that the spirit is automatically perfected at salvation, citing 1 Thessalonians 5:23 and 2 Corinthians 7:1 to show that the spirit can require cleansing and sanctification. He teaches that while the Holy Spirit indwells a protected core of the spirit at salvation, other areas may still carry wounds or defilement. Scripture, he says, shows the spirit can be broken, overwhelmed, deceitful, or in need of renewal (Psalm 51:10, 17; Proverbs 18:14). Duval also connects Jeremiah 1:5 to the idea of pre-earth existence, suggesting that pre-Adamic trauma can affect the human spirit. He maintains that targeted ministry to the spirit brings deep healing and transformation.Then we ENCOURAGE you to do 4 QUICK THINGS!!Sign up to be a podcast member:www.danduval.comBe sure to check out and like our new Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/DiscoveringTruthNetworkSubscribe to the new podcast:YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5nxloF2rt7-dXkjppGHdFASubscribe to our Rumble Channel, where we will post all of our interviews that are TOO HOT for YouTube:DiscoveringTruthNetwork (rumble.com)
Are you successful on paper but restless underneath? Have you reached midlife (40, 50, or in your 60's) and your realized something feels slightly "off." Not broken. Not dramatic. Just…stuck. What if the restlessness you're feeling right now isn't a problem… but a signal that your next chapter is calling? This week's episode of the IMPACT SHOW Podcast is POWERFUL and DEEP. I sit down with a dear friend of mine, Bobby Kelly. I've known Bobby for over 20 years, and let me tell you—this guy is one of the most passionate, authentic, and no-nonsense coaches I know. Bobby has spent more than three decades helping people transform their lives—physically and mentally—and now he's on a mission to help people reinvent themselves and step boldly into their next chapter. Bobby just released a powerful new book called "The Next Chapter Starts Now—A Playbook for Reinvention, Renewal, & Real Life Progress" and in this conversation he shares the real framework he's used to help high performers navigate major life transitions. This isn't just another motivational pep talk. It's about building structure, asking the hard questions, and creating the clarity needed to move forward when life feels stuck or misaligned. If you've ever found yourself asking, "Is this it?" or "What's next for me?" or "How do I change direction without blowing up my life?"—this episode is for you. Bobby drops some serious wisdom and practical tools that will help you rethink where you are and start designing where you want to go next. In this episode, we talk about: • Why motivation is a terrible long-term strategy and what actually creates lasting change. • The difference between being successful vs. truly aligned in your life and career. • How to know when you're experiencing burnout… or simply outgrowing your environment. • Why that feeling of restlessness might actually be a signal that growth is calling. • The power of asking the right questions to create clarity and momentum. • Why your environment and the people around you play a huge role in the next level of your life. • Bobby's incredible story about how his coaching style even helped President George W. Bush run one of his fastest treadmill 5Ks. • The importance of structure, discipline, and micro-wins when creating your next chapter. • Real-life stories of people who have made powerful life pivots at 40, 50, 60 and beyond. My friends, here's the truth: your next chapter isn't something that magically appears one day. It's something you decide to step into. If something inside you has been nudging you lately… if you feel that pull that there's more for your life, your purpose, and your impact—this conversation is going to light a fire in you. Take a listen, soak up the wisdom Bobby shares, and start asking yourself the big question: What does my next chapter look like?

Brother Ed speaks on the significance of the new year as a spiritual opportunity to deepen faith, serve others, and grow in grace and knowledge
Send us a messageWe've talked in the last two episodes about Burnout and Holy Discontent. Burnout - when we are just plain worn out and tired, but our job isn't over. Holy Discontent - when there's something stirring in us for something better and new. Sometimes peace lifts because God is deepening something in us. But here's the tension: once you recognize holy discontent, the temptation is to assume movement must follow immediately. But, sometimes the next step after holy discontent… is obedience in the ordinary.Why? Because discernment doesn't always lead to dramatic transition. Sometimes it leads right back to your desk, your classroom, your kitchen, or your inbox. There is a particular kind of obedience that feels unimpressive. It's doing the thing in front of you without resentment building a quiet case against your life.This is where we quietly decide who we're becoming. And in that moment - in that place - we find our ability to be obedient in the ordinary.
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him (James 1:5). Thank you, Lord!
Renewal of the heart and soul: The power of intention. Guest: Dr Haafidh Imraan Choonara by Radio Islam
In Vision Sunday part 2, Jacintha continues on the vision of HTBB church by speaking about how to build from rubble to renewal. Preaching from the book of Nehemiah, the principles for building are: restore the right foundations, build strong pillars, and form a wall of protection. Nehemiah 4:10-20
Renewal | Pastor Carson Hale | Week Two by Generations Church
Coming to Jesus means repenting and resting.Every human being is weary. We carry burdens we were never meant to bear: the weight of performance, the exhaustion of trying to prove ourselves, the endless striving for approval. In this sermon, we explore how Jesus offers rest to the weary — but receiving that rest requires repenting of our pride and trusting in him alone.
Wake up! In this message, Lead Pastor Jamie Nunnally shares Jesus's message to the church of Sardis. Sardis had once been one of the most powerful cities in the world. Unlike the other 7 churches in Revelation, there's no mention of persecution, idolatry, or false teaching, by Jesus but they had gotten complacent. Revelation 3:1 The seven stars are symbolic of the seven angels or messengers which refers to the pastor or leader of each church. Revelation 3:1-2 You can fool the crowd, but you can't fool Christ.They're asleep, so their movement is just sleepwalking. Church activity is not church vitality. Revelation 3:2-3 Repentance is a mind change that results in a behavior change. It's turning toward a new direction. It's not just feeling bad, it's doing good. Repentance happens when heart transformation leads to behavior modification. Revelation 3:4 God doesn't just examine our actions, He examines our intentions. Revelation 3:5-6Hearing from Jesus always requires a response. And that's the letter to the church of Sardis and what it meant to them. So, what are the timeless truths for us in this letter, and how can we respond to what Jesus has revealed? 1. Your reputation is not as important as your righteousness.Matthew 23:27Yesterday's victories can become today's excuses. We'll be tempted to embrace programs over presence, structure over Spirit, and appearance over anointing. There are seasons of rest in the life of a Christian, but there are never seasons of complacency. Yesterday's obedience does not cover today's calling. God isn't impressed by your highlight reel; He is looking for present obedience. 2. Wake up before spiritual drift becomes spiritual death.Spiritual sleep happens one ignored conviction at a time.Romans 13:11Jesus doesn't want to write us off, He wants to wake us up. 3. Strengthen what remains.God can do a lot with a spark, but you have to stop pouring water on it and start fanning it into a flame.Strengthening what remains means you stop coasting and start pursuing God again.Spiritual renewal does not come from willpower; It comes from the power of the Holy Spirit.Isaiah 11:2Romans 8:11Revival rarely begins with something spectacular. It usually begins with someone returning to the basics. Some of the stars we see shining above us are actually already dead. Because many of them are light-years away, the light they produced years ago is still traveling through space. In other words, we may be seeing the glow of something that no longer exists and died years ago.And that's exactly what Jesus says was happening in Sardis. It's the same for us. Church, there are too many "bored-again" Christians who are trapped in the rut of religion, regurgitating Christianese phrases, and mindlessly attending, but not engaging.Wake up! Strengthen what remains. Repent, and return to the Lord. Are you spiritually alive, or just known for being spiritually alive?
After long seasons of grief, uncertainty, and emotional exhaustion, many parents find themselves in a kind of spiritual winter. Life has been focused on carrying, praying, waiting, and holding tension. But sometimes, quietly, something begins to change. In this episode of the Still Faithful series, we talk about what it looks like when God begins inviting you back into life again. Not with pressure or urgency, but with gentle renewal. This conversation explores spiritual winter seasons, the slow timing of renewal, and how to notice the small stirrings of life that God may be awakening in you. If you've felt emotionally dormant or unsure how to move forward after a long season of carrying so much, this episode offers reassurance that renewal does not require rushing or forgetting the past. God often restores life slowly — and slow restoration is still real restoration. In this episode, we explore: • Why spiritual "winter" seasons are a natural part of faith • How God often brings renewal quietly and gradually • The difference between rising again and rushing forward • Noticing the gentle stirrings of life after a season of dormancy • Why renewal does not erase love, concern, or the past Reflection questions: Take these slowly. There is no pressure to resolve anything quickly. • Where have I been emotionally dormant? • What feels like it may be beginning to stir in me? • What would it look like to say "yes" to life again — slowly? An important reminder: Renewal does not require forgetting the past. It simply means allowing God to grow something new alongside it. You are allowed to experience life again even while your child's story is still unfolding. Support: For many parents, renewal can feel unfamiliar after long seasons of carrying pain and uncertainty. If you're sensing new stirrings but feel unsure how to move forward with wisdom and steadiness, coaching can be a space to discern those invitations. You can learn more at www.melindapatrick.org

Send me a Text Message!I just received my Portugal D7 residence permit card — and I'm already thinking ahead to renewal.In this episode of Life Abroad in Portugal, I share the four things I'm focusing on over the next two years to help ensure my residency renewal goes as smoothly as the process of getting the card did.Renewal isn't something you scramble for at the last minute. It's really about how you live during your residency period.I talk about the four principles guiding me moving forward:• Meeting Portugal's physical presence requirements (6 consecutive or 8 non-consecutive months each year) • Using my NIF number and participating actively in the Portuguese economy • Paying my fair share of Portuguese taxes • Being a responsible, law-abiding residentIf you're living in Portugal on a D7 visa or any residence permit, this mindset can make the renewal process much less stressful.Getting the card isn't the end of the journey — it's the beginning of building a life here responsibly.

Send us a messageIn the last episode, we talked about burnout, and how it has a way of shrinking your perspective. Sometimes we mistake burnout for a disruption in our calling, and oftentimes we just need to pause and rest and not completely hit the "reset" button.But today, in part two of our "Right Place, Right Time" series, we're going to turn the tables a bit. What about when the restlessness doesn't fade after a weekend off? What if it sharpens instead of disappearing when you finally catch your breath?Instead of burnout, it could be the start of what I call "holy discontent" - when instead of screaming, “Get out and do something new,” it quietly asks, “Are you ready for more?” It's that persistent nudge that something in your life needs to grow, change, or deepen. It's like an internal tap on the shoulder that doesn't go away.
