Podcasts about Restored

In this episode, we continue our Lenten book study on "The Way of Trust and Love" and focus on Chapter 1: A Completely New Way. We reflect on the "little way" of St. Thérèse, the invitation to become spiritual children before the Father, and how weakness becomes the very place where Christ comes to meet us. We also talk about the difference between being childish and childlike, why true maturity in faith begins with admitting our own poverty, and how small acts of courage open the door to deep healing. This week, we invite you to name the desires stirring in your heart and let the Holy Spirit awaken a new song within you.   Heather's One Thing - Franciscan's Campus-wide "Behold" Retreat Sister Miriam's One Thing - Healing Wounds by Bishop Erik Varden  Michelle's One Thing - The O' Grady's Beach House  Michelle's Other One Thing - Emily Lex Watercolor Workbooks    Journal Questions: How often do I accept the letter of God's adoption of me, and not the spirit of God's adoption? Where in my life do I need Mother Mary to smile upon me? How have I turned to self-reliance this Lent? Where is God inviting me to become more adult and free? What is the new song the Lord wants to put in my heart?   Discussion Questions: When do you notice orphanhood in your heart? What are you learning from St. Therese this Lent? When have you experienced the healing delight of a mother? Is it difficult for you to name your desires? What is one desire God has placed on your heart this Lent? What is the "yes" God is asking you to make today?   Quotes to Ponder: "You know, Mother, that I have always desired to be a saint, but alas, I have always realized, when I compared myself to the saints, that there is between them and me the same difference as exists between a mountain whose summit is lost in the skies, and the obscure grain of sand trodden underfoot by passers-by. Instead of getting discouraged, I said to myself: "God could not" "inspire us with desires that were unrealizable, so despite my littleness I can aspire to holiness. It is impossible for me to grow up, I must put up with myself as I am, with all my imperfections; but I want to find how to get to Heaven by a little way that is quite straight, quite short: a completely new little way." (St. Thérèse of Lisieux)   "Each of us has an absolute need for an inner transformation that makes us "as little as a child." What that means and how to put it into practice are exactly what Thérèse teaches in a simple, luminous way. That is why she was proclaimed a Doctor—that is, a teacher—of the Church." (Father Jacques Philippe, The Way of Trust and Love, Page 6)   "The heart of Christian life is to receive and welcome God's tenderness and goodness, the revelation of his merciful love, and to let oneself be transformed interiorly by that love." (Father Jacques Philippe, The Way of Trust and Love, Page 7)   Scripture for Lectio: "But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness." So, I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me." (2 Corinthians 12:9)   Sponsor - Healed and Restored: Healed and Restored is a non-profit organization located in the Charlotte, NC area that was created in 2020 to fill a void and respond to a need that has been long overlooked in our society. A program that is 100% dedicated to helping women heal in the aftermath of abuse, assault, and other traumatic experiences. According to the United Nations, one in three girls and women around the world has been subjected to sexual and/or physical abuse at least once in their lives. Studies show that women who have been through abuse (of all types) have higher levels of fear, are more isolated, and face greater mental health problems. In the aftermath of any of these traumatic events, women will sometimes resort to hurting themselves through cutting, eating disorders, and addictions. Without proper care and healing, these dark cycles can persist for years. We help women and girls realize that God desires to heal every single one of His beloved children. We teach them that the enemy is a master manipulator. As soon as a person gets hurt, the devil begins to plant all kinds of lies in our hurting souls. Some of these lies are: God doesn't love you, everything that happened is your fault, you should be forever ashamed, and you will never find healing and peace. The Mission The Healed and Restored mission is to help women and girls who are survivors of abuse, assault, domestic violence, trafficking, and all other forms of trauma find healing and restoration. Grounded in Catholic teachings and through a combination of counseling, life coaching, intimate workshops, practical tools, spiritual mentoring, and community support we help women and girls transform pain into purpose— empowering them to not only survive, but thrive. Since 2020, Healed and Restored has helped over 500 women and girls on their journey to process their unhealed wounds. Never could we have predicted how much God would bless our mission in such a short period of time. All of this has us convinced that there are times when God uses our deepest pain to propel us on the path to our greatest calling! If you or someone you know could use the assistance of our trained and compassionate Catholic Therapists/Counselors and money is an issue, please do not hesitate to reach out to us by emailing info@healedandrestored.org for more information and guidance. Or if you feel called to be part of this mission by volunteering your time, we would love to hear from you. Together and guided by the Holy Spirit, we can make a difference in the life of those around us who are suffering.   Timestamps:  00:00 Healed and Restored 01:31 Intro 02:17 Welcome 04:26 Scripture Verse and Quote to Ponder 05:35 Trusting in Our Creator 09:49 The Path of Spiritual Childhood 12:53 Healed by Delight 16:27 What is the "Little Way"? 19:36 Childlike vs Childish 24:05 The Role of Holy Scripture 30:10 One Things

It wasn't just Barbara Villiers (or his wife, Catherine of Braganza) who was sharing Charles II's bed. This week, we go deep on the Merry Monarch's relationships with Winifred Wells, Frances Stewart, Mary Bagot, and actress Moll Davis. Winifred Wells came to the King's attention as a Maid of Honor to Queen Catherine, and unlike the mean-girl energy of Barbara Villiers, Winifred and Queen became close, and Winifred remained in her employ for years after the death of Charles II. Frances Stewart was a renowned beauty who famously refused to become Charles's mistress - until, it seems, she did. She was also the first model for the personification of Britania on an English coin. Mary Bagot was the wife of one of Charles's longtime supporters, who had served his court while in exile in Europe. Mary "Moll" Davis was a popular actress of her day who provided yet another illegitimate child to the monarch before retiring to a fancy home and living on a pension provided to her by Charles.

Construction on the $16 billion Gateway tunnel project that aims to build a new set of train tunnels under the Hudson River shut down earlier this month after the Trump administration froze federal funding. More than a thousand workers were forced to walk off the job. A federal judge ordered the money released and crews are preparing to restart the work, but the case is still moving through the federal court system. WNYC transportation reporter Stephen Nessen and editor Clayton Guse explain how the project became a political flashpoint, what the pause revealed about federal funding and what it means for the commuters who rely on the aging tunnels every day.

2 Chronicles 23–24 tells the story of restoration and warning through the reign of King Joash. In chapter 23, the priest Jehoiada courageously leads a covenant renewal, protects the rightful heir, overthrows Athaliah, and restores true worship in Judah. The nation rejoices as God's order is re-established. Chapter 24 begins with promise—Joash does what is right while guided by Jehoiada and helps repair the house of the Lord. But after Jehoiada's death, Joash turns away, listens to corrupt counsel, and abandons God's house, leading to spiritual decline and judgment. Together, these chapters teach that godly influence and outward reform are not enough—faith must become personal, rooted, and lasting to endure.

On this episode of She's All Over the Place, host Katie Chonacas sits down with acclaimed filmmaker Cate Shortland, director and pioneering voice for women behind the camera, to discuss her landmark debut feature Somersault. Originally nominated for Un Certain Regard and the Camera d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, Somersault follows teenage Heidi, who escapes home after a traumatic encounter and attempts to rebuild her identity in a frozen ski town. Through isolation, longing, and fragile connection, the film explores adolescence, intimacy, and the human need for belonging. We go far beyond filmmaking technique. This conversation becomes an honest exploration of creative courage, emotional exposure, and artistic voice, especially for female storytellers navigating an industry that often discourages vulnerability. Cate shares: • How Somersault was conceived and made • Working with early-career actors Abbie Cornish and Sam Worthington • Why vulnerability is a strength in storytelling • Emotional truth vs. performance in film • The responsibility of female filmmakers to tell authentic stories • Finding confidence as a woman director • Creative intuition, sensitivity, and psychological depth in cinema We also discuss the film's new 4K restoration and its continued cultural relevance, over 20 years after its Cannes premiere. More than a film discussion, this episode is a masterclass on owning your voice, telling your story, and making art that feels emotionally truthful. About the Film – Somersault Following a reckless encounter with her mother's boyfriend, teenage Heidi flees home and takes refuge in a motel in the winter town of Jindabyne. She finds work at a petrol station, befriends a coworker, and begins a complicated relationship with Joe, a young man dealing with his own emotional wounds. Together they confront isolation, desire, addiction, and the search for connection. Written & Directed by: Cate Shortland Cast: Abbie Cornish, Sam Worthington, Lynette Curran Genre: Drama Runtime: 106 minutes Restored in 4K from the original 35mm negative by Piccolo Films

Thank you for tunning in with us today as Pastor Keenan Smith ministers on Restored homes.  We are praying and believing that this message will be a great encouragemnt to you and your walk with God.

What if the sadness you carry is pointing you toward something deeper than a diagnosis? We open up about our own run-ins with depression—moments when relocation, isolation, work strain, and unmet expectations pushed our marriage to the edge—and how a narrow “chemical imbalance” story didn't fully explain what our hearts were living. Yes, medication brought temporary relief. But it also blurred the highs, cooled our connection, and left the real roots untouched.Together, we trace the turning points that helped us heal: naming the idols of approval and control that quietly ruled our choices, practicing gratitude that bends the gaze toward what's true, and rebuilding rhythms of rest, movement, and nature that lifted the fog. We lean into Scripture for perspective, learning from Paul's posture in prison and the call for the church to bear one another's burdens. We also talk candidly about counsel from biblical counseling training and why community, accountability, and honest conversation often change more than any hack or shortcut.You'll walk away with a grounded way to think about depression in marriage: complex, real, and absolutely addressable through integrated care—spiritual, relational, and practical. Whether you're the one feeling low or the partner who wants to help, this conversation offers clear steps to begin again: small daily check-ins, steady truth-telling, and simple habits that restore energy and hope. If you're ready to trade quick fixes for deeper healing, press play and join us on the path toward purpose.If this resonated, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs hope, and leave a review so others can find the show.

Part 4 of reuploading classic history episodes in the run up to our book club review of Serve the People! by Yan Lianke.In episode 4 of the Cultural Revolution series, we look at how the party began to rebuild itself in the period 1968-1972 through a series of internal meetings, some last-minute purges, and a few devastating mass campaigns that would end up having a much higher impact than anything the Red Guards had carried out in previous years.Though much had happened in China during the last few years, to many people it seemed like nothing had fundamentally changed. Though the people running the government were different, the structure of the party-state itself had remained the same. If anything, the only real difference was the preeminence that Mao Zedong Thought gained during this period, largely thanks to the support of the PLA.Songs: Long Live Chairman Mao and March of the Revolutionary Youth0:00 Introduction ("Long live Chairman Mao")3:18 Rebuilding the system14:45 "March of the revolutionay youth"15:05 The dismissal of Liu Shaoqi25:40 The 9th plenum28:20 The final campaigns43:00 Lessons learned50:22 OutroBuy bookclub books hereBuy me a coffeeLinks to everythingSupport the showSupport the showSign up for Buzzsprout to launch your podcasting journey: https://www.buzzsprout.com/?referrer_id=162442Subscribe to the Sinobabble Newsletter: https://sinobabble.substack.com/Support Sinobabble on Buy me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Sinobabblepod

RestoredGenesis 1: 31, Genesis 3:6-11, Isaiah 59:2, Romans 5:10, Romans 5:1Jesus died on the cross to restore our broken relationship with God. The CrossIn the ancient world, the cross was a symbol of shame, death, and defeat. Among the Jewish people, anyone who died on a cross was considered cursed by God, and the Romans viewed those who were crucified with contempt. This is why the Apostle Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 1:23, “but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles.” Even today, the cross remains difficult for many to understand. Yet, the cross stands at the center of God's redemptive plan and the very heart of the gospel.  Every believer knows Jesus died for them on the cross, but even for people of faith, its meaning can be challenging to fully grasp.  Further, scripture describes the work of Christ on the cross in several different ways, adding complexity to our endeavors to understand it.  With this series, we will examine key biblical passages that illuminate these different dimensions of the cross and help us to grow a deeper and fuller understanding of its profound significance.Orchard Community Church8180 Telephone RdVentura CA 93004www.OrchardVentura.orgContact us at Info@OrchardVentura.orgOrchard's Streaming and Song Select CCLI# 160190

In this episode of The Grove Podcast, Shelley Giglio sits down with her dear friend and a long-time Grove girl, Courtney Pray Duke, to celebrate the release of Courtney's book And She Got Up : Shattered by Loss, Restored by Jesus and to trace the journey that shaped it. Courtney shares how everything changed in her life the day Andrew died in a bicycle accident — an instant that turned a bright day into “the darkest night of the soul.”With honesty and tenderness, Courtney recounts the disorienting fog of grief, the fight to keep going for her three young children, and the unexpected ways God met her in the lowest moments. From a pivotal encounter with God at Passion 2013 to the daily practice of anchoring her life in scripture, Courtney unpacks how faith can be tested in the fire — and how God's presence can become most real in the valley.Shelley and Courtney also talk about the power of community, learning to speak truth out loud, and the long obedience of writing the story down. Ultimately, this conversation is an invitation: if Jesus brought life to her story, He can bring life to yours too. And She Got Up releases on February 24, but you can pre-order your copy today.

Have you ever felt like you failed God beyond repair? In this powerful message from John 21:10–19, we witness one of the most tender and transformational moments in Scripture—Jesus restoring Peter after his denial.After the resurrection, Jesus didn't shame Peter. He didn't discard him. Instead, beside a charcoal fire, He lovingly asked, “Do you love Me?” Three times Peter denied Him. Three times Jesus gave him the opportunity to reaffirm his love—and then recommissioned him: “Feed My sheep.” What grace. What mercy. What restoration.No matter how far you feel you've fallen, Jesus is still calling your name. Your denial is not your destiny. Your setback is not your final chapter. He restores, He renews, and He recommissions.

Restored | The Path Toward Freedom | Tom White | Mile High Vineyard

*This episode contains content that may be triggering for some listeners.* This week, we hear from Stephen McWhirter, a songwriter and worship leader whose early life was marked by deep trauma, addiction, and a shattered view of God shaped by his father’s hypocrisy and abuse. After years of rebellion and anger toward faith, Steven encountered Jesus in an unexpected moment that transformed everything. Today, he shares a powerful story of grace, redemption, and the hard-won freedom found on the other side of forgiveness. Later in the episode, we’ll hear from author and speaker Courtney Pray Duke, who opens up about the tragic loss of her husband. Courtney shares what it was like to navigate grief while raising three children alone, and how it encouraged her to draw closer to God as a source of comfort when everything felt like it was falling apart.

I want to quit all this addiction, all this darkness, all this anger, all this depression, and this trauma that I’ve known for so long.’” - Stephen McWhirter “Jesus never healed anyone [from addiction] the same way twice, because every story has a purpose. If it takes you five times or eleven times to fall at the feet of Jesus and you mean it, He’s going to use your story to draw people to Him.” - Stephen McWhirter “There is something truly powerful on the other side of forgiveness. It’s not about reciprocation. Somebody may not say to you, ‘I’m asking for your forgiveness,’ but you have the ability to tear up the debt and throw it away. That’s real freedom, that’s real restoration.” - Stephen McWhirter “Those early days of grief were so messy and they were so uncharted. And to be honest, I didn’t even know what grief really meant until I was in the place where I was grieving with everything inside of me.” - Courtney Pray Duke “The Lord was so faithful to meet me in every moment, and I could lay my head on my pillow at night and look over the day and I could see where He was when I would open up the Word of God. It was like His promises and His love were illuminating off the page and they were bringing sustenance to my life.” - Courtney Pray Duke “It wasn’t until I lost everything that my faith grew legs. It was walking through fiery times and profound loss where Jesus met me with strength and love and power and life.” - Courtney Pray Duke “Holding the grief of my kids’ hearts and mine was impossible for me to bear. I learned so much during that time about releasing my children.” - Courtney Pray Duke “It’s just so beautiful when you see a nugget of truth that comes from the Word of God—something that you can remind yourself of what’s true, even when your circumstances look anything like what it is that you’re contending for, to know that this is what’s true. Truth is immovable. It’s not going to change shape and waver like my life does. Truth is truth.” - Courtney Pray Duke “God can do anything through a life surrendered to Him.” - Courtney Pray Duke ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

In this restless world, satisfaction is fleeting. Rather than chasing after success and validation, what if we began pursuing meaning and refuge? John invites Matt Fradd, noted author and host of the Pints With Aquinas podcast, to discuss how our lives would radically change if we took Christ seriously, stopped seeking false comforts, and found our true refuge in Jesus.Show Notes: The books referenced are Jesus Our Refuge by Matt Fradd, The Porn Myth by Matt Fradd, Restored by Matt and Cameron Fradd, and The Dumb Ox by G. K. Chesterton.

Home is supposed to be where a child can exhale—but for Stephen McWhirter, growing up in a preacher's family meant watching public faith and private violence collide, then carrying that silence into years of rebellion, addiction, and rage. In this tender, unforgettable conversation with Ginny Yurich, Stephen shares what it cost to keep the “everything's fine” mask in place, how a copy of The Case for Christ landed in the middle of his darkest night, and why real healing often begins when we stop hiding and start telling the truth. You'll hear a refreshingly grounded take on parenting kids who act out, the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation, and the surprising kindness of God that can meet someone right where they are and change everything. Stephen's book is Radically Restored: How Knowing Jesus Heals Our Brokenness and his music includes “Come Jesus Come” and “My Right Now.” Learn more about Stephen and all he has to offer here Get your copy of Radically Restored here.

To fully understand what Jesus says about fulfilling the Law and the Prophets at the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount, we first have to understand Isaiah's prophecy of the ancient ruins restored.

It took a hit with the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Trump Administration has now elevated science skeptics to positions of power and proposed giant cuts in scientific research.
