Exodus 20:7-11

Starting over is awkward. Whether you're back at the gym, wrestling with grief, or stepping into a new routine, the beginning can feel clunky and emotional. In this solo episode, I'm sharing a very real week from my own life—post-snowstorm, post-holiday, mid-humbling workout. I talk about what it's like to be a beginner again, how hard it is to make decisions (even when you want to change), and why it's okay to start messy. You'll hear about building emotional and physical strength, the difference community can make, and how doing “reps”—in any part of life—is what truly creates change. If you're in a season of starting again, this episode will help you feel less alone and more capable than you thought. 3 Listener Takeaways: • The courage to begin again isn't flashy—it's honest, human, and repeatable. • You don't need motivation. You need momentum. One rep at a time. • Give yourself grace. Starting over is still forward.

Ecclesiastes 5:1-7

Pastor Paul Irminger. This January we are launching a new series called Restart with a simple declaration This is the year. A year to begin again. A year to realign our lives around Christ. A year marked by faith, renewal, and purpose. Scripture reminds us that moments matter. There are seasons when God invites us to step forward with expectation. Join us as we start fresh together. This is the year.

We've Lost Reverence for God (And It Shows)

Send us a textWhat happens when reverence fades and noise takes over? We follow Job's debate with his friends to expose a modern problem: people can quote true things about God and still misrepresent him. Together we wrestle with how careless speech, pop-platform religion, and the urge to entertain have shaped a culture where the name of Jesus is used more as a punchline than a confession—and how a holy fear of God can reset our words, our witness, and our courage.We unpack why Job's friends were so persuasive and yet so wrong, how assumptions about suffering fuel judgment, and what it means to rightly divide Scripture with humility. You'll hear candid stories from the panel about conviction, public mistakes, and the hard practice of asking forgiveness when our teaching misleads. We talk about speaking truth in the Spirit rather than the flesh, and why tone, timing, and restraint matter as much as accuracy. Reverence doesn't mean silence; it means we confront error without cruelty and defend the honor of Christ without turning faith into spectacle.If quiet time with God feels dull, if Christian spaces feel like a stage, or if you've been burned by confident voices that missed the heart of God, this conversation offers a better way. Recovering fear of the Lord produces careful words, patient correction, and a resilient witness that resists applause and honors Christ openly. Listen, share with a friend who needs encouragement, and if this served you, subscribe, leave a review, and tell us: where do you see reverence needing a comeback?Support the showBE PROVOKED AND BE PERSUADED!

Send us a text by clicking this link!The spark was small—a tweet from Bishop Barron about synodality and doctrine—but the questions behind it are huge: What should a synod actually decide? How did “the spirit of Vatican II” turn into perpetual uncertainty? And why are everyday Catholics still getting side-eyed for kneeling at communion? We open the hood on a consistory that could reset expectations, sift Barron's argument for what it gets right and wrong, and get painfully practical about reverence, freedom, and pastoral authority.Along the way, we share a happier twist: a priest reached out and offered to accompany our Italy trip, making daily Latin Mass not only possible but likely across private chapels in Rome and beyond. That momentum matters. People don't want liturgical roulette; they want beauty, clarity, and worship that deepens faith. The pastoral playbook that treats piety as a problem is wearing thin, and that comes into sharp focus with a diocese banning portable kneelers for the elderly and Jonathan Roumie describing how he was told to stand when he tried to receive on his knees. Reverence isn't performance; it's love braving friction.We don't dodge the tough map either. Under Francis, a common foe united disparate trad corners. Under Leo, the tone is calmer, but the doctrinal direction still worries many. Could a non-territorial jurisdiction—an ordinariate-style solution with bishops from traditional communities—offer stability without schism? Maybe. Or maybe it risks a new ghetto unless leaders honor what's already law: the right to kneel, the right to receive on the tongue, and the call to worship God with proper solemnity. We're watching the consistory, reading the dubia, and building something constructive: a pilgrimage ordered to daily prayer and the Eucharist.If this conversation hits home, follow the show, share it with a friend who cares about liturgy and clarity, and leave a quick review.

Engaged in Reverence

The first reward of seeking and seeing God is not material things, but God Himself. Because God is Spirit, our relationship with Him is not casual or mechanical. When dealing with a spirit being, reverence and consistency is importance. Knowing that God is, determines how we approach Him. Our approach must be shaped by the quality of His essence. Reverence must never be absent when we come before Him.Christianity is not merely practiced outwardly; it is done in the Spirit and by the Spirit. Certain actions can encourage or attract spirit beingsFaith always operates within the will of God. You cannot separate true acts of faith from God's sovereignty and mercy. Faith is not forcing outcomes; faith is trusting God.Faith cannot exist outside the boundaries of God's will. It is not insisting against God's better judgment but resting in His wisdom. Therefore, faith confessions are not declarations of what we want, but declarations of what God has clearly revealed He wants for us.

On this week's episode of The Whiskey Trip, Big Chief pulls up a chair with his brother Little Feather for a no-nonsense, end-of-year sit-down rooted in family, flavor, and hard-earned opinions. With a year of miles behind them and a table full of whiskey in front of them, the brothers look back on Big Chief's 2025 Whiskey Trail while taking on the challenge of naming Whiskey of the Year and Distillery of the Year. It is part reflection, part debate, filled with laughs, brotherly jabs, and a deep respect for the craft and the people behind it. To strip away hype, labels, and reputation, the tasting is done completely blind, with all five whiskeys poured into plain mason jars. No fancy glassware and no branding, just whiskey. Each pour is judged on nose, palate, mouthfeel, finish, and balance, forcing every whiskey to stand on its own merits. The mason jars set an honest, humble tone and lead to a few surprises and some strong, unfiltered reactions. As the tasting unfolds, Little Feather flips the mic and interviews Big Chief about the highs, lessons, and standout moments from the 2025 Whiskey Trip. Between sips, they talk road miles, distillery visits, and the people who made the journey matter. The conversation naturally turns forward, with Big Chief sharing what is already taking shape for 2026, including new regions, deeper dives into the craft, and a continued commitment to giving distillers a real voice. The five whiskeys competing for Whiskey of the Year represent a wide range of styles from stops along the trail. The lineup includes Anita's Choice, a six-grain bourbon from Burnt Church Distillery; Reverence from 1845 Distilling Company; a bold Cask Strength Rye from Ponfeigh Distillery; Broken Halo Cask Strength from War Trail Distillery; and Batch 37 from Barrell Craft Spirits. With no labels to lean on, each whiskey earns praise or criticism based solely on what is in the jar. When the dust settles, Whiskey of the Year goes to 1845 Preemption Reverence, a pour that rose above the rest when judged blind for its balance, depth, and character. Distillery of the Year honors go to Trinity River Distillery, recognized not only for its whiskey but for the full experience it delivers, from immersive tours to the renovation of its historic ranch-style bean factory, along with its Whiskey Kitchen and Bourbon Nursery. Whether listeners agree with the final calls or not, this episode is about honoring the pours, the places, and the passion that keep American whiskey moving forward. Pour yourself something good, pull up a chair, and Take the Ride with Big Chief and Little Feather as they close out 2025 and set their sights on what is ahead.

A quiet shift begins when a lifelong member of the Churches of Christ realizes that his faith life, rich in study and careful exegesis, struggles to move from mind to heart. Brandon Marlow's story traces the Restoration Movement's ideals—erase denominational lines, do Bible things in Bible ways, and speak where Scripture speaks. Those guiding slogans shaped a culture suspicious of creeds, titles, instruments, and anything not “authorized.” The result formed disciplined habits, robust Bible study, and close-knit congregations. Yet the same strengths could narrow imagination and flatten mystery. A low view of the Holy Spirit's personal activity and an intellectual approach to faith left little language for awe, beauty, or sacrament. Brandon describes how good intentions produced a protective fence, but often fenced out wonder.His turning came when he stepped into preaching during a pastoral vacancy. Wanting holiness to match responsibility, he searched for time-tested disciplines: daily prayers, fasting rhythms, and a pattern of worship that stretches the soul. He found them in Orthodoxy. Prayer books spoke soberly about judgment and mercy, teaching him to remember ultimate things every day. Memorizing whole psalms, not just proof texts, reoriented his inner life. Icons startled him. Venerating the Ascension icon, his heart rose in praise, not just his mind in assent. He realized devotion is learned by doing—beauty tutors love, and ritual teaches reverence. Where logic said “believe,” the Church taught him to behold, adore, and belong.Scripture did not shrink; it deepened. Listening to Orthodox homilies, he felt less “interpretation” and more unveiling. Texts clicked into place as part of a living Tradition, the same bloodstream that nourished the Fathers he had once mined for citations. C.S. Lewis had cracked the door years earlier, proving that Christian wisdom could move the affections without verse labels in every line. Meeting the Fathers as pastors—Ignatius, Polycarp, and more—showed him a church that loved, bled, and prayed as one body. Their worlds made sense of bones cherished as gold, not as superstition, but as love made tangible in the saints who fed, blessed, and shepherded their flock.The Eucharist became the center of gravity. In his upbringing, communion was precious yet rushed, migrating from homemade bread to sealed cups as the table drifted to the side. Reverence thinned as routine took hold. In Orthodoxy, he discovered preparation before, prayer during, and gratitude after. The chalice, spoon, and altar were holy because the Lord gives himself there—Body and Blood, Presence not symbol. Approaching the chalice for the first time felt like approaching fire. He stepped forward in obedience and love, realizing this is why Christ died: communion. From there, everything else reframed—ascetic practices, feasts and fasts, the calendar that walks believers through the life of Christ, and the solidarity of Holy Week that exhausts, burns, and resurrects a community together.From “people of the book” to people of the Book and the Table, he discovered that truth is not only argued; it is adored, sung, tasted, and shared. The heart learns by worship as much as the mind learns by words, and both find their home when Scripture meets Sacrament in the life of the Church.Questions about Orthodoxy?

Conversion stories often get reduced to neat headlines, but the road from New Age spirituality to historic Christianity is usually messy, humbling, and deeply human. In this conversation, Michaela Nikolaenko  @MichaelaNikolaenko   lays out a candid record of life inside tarot, yoga, psychedelics, and an adulterous relationship that spiraled into a series of demonic encounters. The scenes are visceral—faces morphing, oppressive presences, and a stark battle of wills that ended with a shaky, embarrassed prayer to Jesus. That plea wasn't tidy, but it was decisive. What followed was a slow reconstruction: throwing out occult tools, breaking off a relationship that was corroding the soul, and letting Scripture set guardrails when fear of the dark felt nearer than hope. This is where the healing began: not with spectacle, but with obedience.Her path to a church wasn't linear. She tried a Catholic parish for holy water, sat with Mormon elders chasing answers about a “great mother,” and explored non-Christian traditions to avoid surrendering her favorite sins. None of it resolved the dread. A Protestant friend finally said, “Just come to church.” There she saw families, order, and women who would look her in the eyes and say the hard thing kindly: God isn't sending you someone else's spouse. Confession began informally in living rooms before it matured into sacrament. The Bible became less a slogan and more a survival guide. If she walked its way, the demonic stopped walking through her door.Yet she still needed peace about Jesus himself. It arrived as a dream: a suffocating abyss like hell, then a burst of light warming her body, air in the lungs, the face of Christ breaking through. That experience wasn't a lifestyle brand; it was rescue. Enter Orthodoxy, where the lives of the saints—Mary of Egypt, Moses the Black, Anthony the Great—normalized spiritual warfare and recovery. Reverence replaced adrenaline. The liturgy felt like work, sometimes literally painful, but that was the point. Worship isn't entertainment; it is labor of love that shapes desire. Emotional highs faded; steadiness grew. The church calendar, fasts, and feasts became a map for ordinary holiness.Practically, Michaela is now building resources for seekers leaving occult practices: short guides on tarot, moon rituals, psychedelics, and their spiritual costs through an Orthodox lens. The tone isn't sneering. She respects the honest desire that drove her to search in the wrong places and insists that God used even that confusion to guide her home. She urges listeners to read the Apostolic Fathers—Ignatius, Polycarp, the Didache—and to use accessible summaries when primary texts feel dense. The goal isn't trivia; it's rootedness. Along the way, we pressed into real-life questions: navigating reverence without chasing constant “feels,” and simple dating wisdom for Orthodox men—groom, work, pursue, and be brave. The final word is simple and ancient: come and see. Online content can spark curiosity, but only a parish can teach you to breathe again.Questions about Orthodoxy?

Homily - 4th Sunday of Advent - The Reverence Theory

The readings for this homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/122225.cfmFather Daniel Klimek, MIC confronts a growing indifference toward the Blessed Virgin Mary—even among Catholics—and reminds us that authentic Christianity is always Marian. The words of the Magnificat are not poetic exaggeration; they are divinely inspired truth: “From now on will all ages call me blessed.” (Lk 1:48; NABRE). Reverence for Mary is not optional sentiment—it is a biblical directive.Mary's song echoes the praise of Miriam in the Old Testament, yet now the liberation announced is not political, but eternal. Through the womb of the Virgin, Christ enters the world. She becomes the Ark of the New Covenant, bearing not the law written on stone, but the Word made flesh. To diminish her role is to misunderstand the Incarnation itself.Father Daniel warns that indifference toward Mary is one of the most subtle spiritual dangers of our time. When Marian devotion is reduced to a “personal spirituality,” something essential is lost. From the Cross, Jesus entrusted His Mother to the beloved disciple—and in him, to every Christian: “Behold, your mother” (Jn 19:27; NABRE). This was not symbolic poetry; it was a sacred investiture.To honor Mary never detracts from Christ. As the saints affirm, devotion to the Mother always leads more deeply to the Son. The Immaculate Heart is inseparably united to the Sacred Heart. When we receive Mary into our spiritual life, as St. John did, our faith becomes more profound, more biblical, and more fully Catholic.Mary is not an accessory to the Gospel. She is at its heart. To receive her is to receive one of Christ's final gifts from the Cross—a Mother who intercedes, protects, and leads us unfailingly to Him. ★ Support this podcast ★

Send us a textA voice of gratitude opens the door to a fierce and tender conversation about sovereignty, reverence, and the hope that steadies a trembling world. We take the dance-of-free-will metaphor seriously—seeing our choices not as rivals to God's will but as responses to the music He sets. Then we step into Job 9, where mountains move, stars are sealed, and the sun itself halts at the command of the Lord. That cosmic canvas reframes everything: salvation as God's eternal design, awe as the proper posture of the heart, and urgency as the honest response to a grace we could never earn.Together, we challenge the drift toward casual faith. After the resurrection, believers called Him Lord for a reason—and our language today still reveals our posture. Reverence isn't stiffness; it's clarity, confession, and joy in the truth. We talk about why titles matter, how worship shapes behavior, and what it looks like to correct each other with patience and Scripture. Along the way, voices from the panel speak to desire transformed by grace, compassion for those who mock, and the courage to hold firm without becoming harsh. The message is firm but warm: fear of God deepens love for people.Job's words—God passes by and we do not perceive Him—become both warning and comfort. Nothing is hidden from His sight, and no step is taken outside His presence. That reality doesn't crush us; it anchors us. We finish with the name that stills our restlessness: I AM. Whatever the trial, He is sufficient. If you're hungry for a faith that trembles and trusts, worships and obeys, this study will meet you where you are and call you higher.If this resonated, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs courage today, and leave a review so more listeners can find the study. Your words help others step into awe.Support the showBE PROVOKED AND BE PERSUADED!

It's the last BEHIND THE LENS for 2025! And this week, we shine a light on producer, director, writer, and actor RYAN FRANCIS and his latest film, SPEED TRAIN. I have had the pleasure of knowing Ryan for more than two decades. I reviewed his first directorial short film and multiple feature films thereafter, and interviewed him. And over the years, he has moved from being an actor in front of the camera to going behind the camera into directing and, most recently, also producing. And now he brings us a fast-paced, entertaining futuristic film that posits some interesting questions for us as individuals and a society – SPEED TRAIN. In this very candid, fun, and unfettered exclusive interview, writer/director RYAN FRANCIS discusses his career growth from acting to directing, highlighting his recent film SPEED TRAIN, as well as discussing at length some of his prior films of late in which he only acts or serves an Executive Producer versus directing; notably, "Reverence", "The Jurassic Games: Extinction", "Trail of Vengeance", "The Flood", and "3 Days in Malay". He also discusses two upcoming films he's excited about, "Bruton" and "Bring the Law." As we specifically dig into the making of SPEED TRAIN, Ryan shares the challenges of directing a futuristic sci-fi film in 12 days with a small budget, praising his team, including DP Nico De La Fere and editor Austin Nordell, as well as producer Daemon Hillin and his Thailand team. A large portion of our conversation also discusses the film's themes of AI and human reliance on technology. An interesting aspect of our discussion revolved around the challenges of the film industry, the importance of maintaining a passion for making movies, and the need to bring audiences back to the theater experience. As you'll hear, Ryan speaks with a mix of candor, humor, and hard-earned perspective about a career that has quietly but decisively evolved. Once primarily known as an actor, Ryan has increasingly stepped behind the camera, carving out a space as a filmmaker unafraid of ambition—or of admitting when that ambition nearly outruns the clock. http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com

Fr. Ignacio Llorente - 3rd Sunday of Advent - Matthew 11:2-11

Before time existed, worship was already happening. From the heavens declaring God's glory to Jesus restoring humanity's broken worship, Scripture tells one continuous story. This message traces worship from creation to Christ, showing how everything was made to glorify God and how Jesus reopens the way for true worship in spirit and truth. Learn why worship is not something we do—but what we were created for.

What does it take to build a life that withstands the storms? This exploration of Proverbs 14 takes us deep into the architecture of a godly life, revealing that everything begins with the foundation we lay. Just as a construction crew wouldn't dream of placing a building on unstable ground, we cannot expect our lives to flourish without first establishing ourselves on four critical foundations: reverence, wisdom, stability, and character. The opening verse presents us with the image of a wise woman building her house—a powerful metaphor for how we construct our entire existence. When we fear the Lord with deep respect and reverence, we're not cowering in terror but standing in awe of His majesty, much like children who have a healthy respect for loving parents. This fear becomes the bedrock upon which everything else is built. The message challenges us to move beyond impulsive living toward discernment, to establish consistent rhythms in our spiritual lives rather than chasing perfection, and to recognize that our character—how we treat the McDonald's employee during a frustrating wait or how we speak to our neighbor—matters eternally. The truth is, more is caught than taught. Our lives become living testimonies, and when we root ourselves deeply in God's Word, we create a foundation that cannot be shaken, even when the winds blow and the floods come.**Sermon Notes: Building a Foundation (Proverbs 14)****Detailed Notes:**1. **Introduction to Proverbs 14:**  - The speaker notes a shift in Proverbs' structure and approach to this chapter.  - A thematic exploration of Proverbs 14, focusing on building a foundation.2. **Four Foundations:**  - **Reverence:**    - Defined as a deep respect/fear of the Lord.   - Wisdom and reverence set as crucial for a strong spiritual foundation.   - Proverbs 14:1-2 discusses the wise woman building her house with reverence.   - Verses 26-27 highlight the benefits of revering God (confidence and refuge).  - **Wisdom:**   - Emphasizes discernment over impulses.   - Wisdom involves prudent decision-making (Proverbs 14:8, 15).   - A caution against following worldly wisdom rather than God's wisdom.  - **Stability:**   - Importance of a stable foundation likened to Matthew 7's parable of building on a rock.   - Proverbs 14:11 contrasts the house of the wicked with the tent of the upright.   - Encourage development of healthy rhythms and consistency in spiritual practices.  - **Character:**   - Focus on speech, compassion, and peacefulness (Proverbs 14:3, 21, 30).   - Character impacts how we treat others and respond to life situations.3. **Summary of Proverbs 14:**  - A reader's perspective after detailed examination: listen through the lens of building a strong foundation.  - Establishing life on God's word forms a foundation that influences personal life and those around you.**Practical Applications:**1. **Reverence:**  - Cultivate a daily practice of reflecting on God's greatness to foster a respectful fear and deepen your spiritual foundation.2. **Wisdom:**  - Practice discerning choices by consulting scripture and seeking godly counsel before making significant decisions.3. **Stability:**  - Establish consistent spiritual habits, such as daily devotionals or attending church, to create a stable foundation.4. **Character:**  - Be intentional about speaking truthfully and acting compassionately, reflecting Christ-like behavior in your daily interactions.**Discussion Questions:**1. **Reflection on Reverence:**  - How do you currently demonstrate a fear of the Lord in your daily life?

Together we will all unpack how John Paul II's insights on this passage from the New Testament are not lofty theology but practical truths that shape daily married life and the call to holiness.

What if there were a place, once a week, where you could slow down and feel into your heart? To explore the highs and lows of you right now. To sit with others who can truly see you, without judgement but with buckets of kindness and big hearts. How might that change your day?That's what “Sitting on Sundays” is. It is a practice that Angie and her husband Peter offer through their coaching company, have done so for a decade or so. Once a week, people gather on line to contemplate life. Share highs and lows. Hold space for each other without judgment or the need to fix. To slow down and just feel into who we are in that moment. While this is not something everyone will come for, the idea of slowing down, sinking into contemplation about who we are, exploring the role of grace, of hope, of peace and so many other things… it is something anyone can create with another person, and offer space to each other to be curious about life, right, now. That's the invitation... slow down and contemplate life. Your life. Find the awe in the moments. Name the highs, and the lows, and find a friend to do it with.Please drop me a line if anything piqued your interest at meanderingswithtrudy@gmail.com.

As the year winds down and a new one begins, Danny invites listeners into a deep, honest exploration of what it means to be fully alive. In this season-opening episode, he reflects on the 3 Levels of Life, why so many of us get stuck in the "functional fog," and how a Radical Reverence for Your Life can pull you back into clarity, purpose, and joy. With simple, timeless practices you can begin today, Danny offers a roadmap for slowing down, creating vision, reconnecting with your Spirit, and moving into the new year with intention—not exhaustion.

An Unshakable Kingdom: Hebrews 12:18–29In this powerful conclusion to Hebrews 12, Jamie and Jane explore the contrast between Mount Sinai and Mount Zion—a symbol of fear versus freedom, law versus grace. They unpack what it means to belong to an unshakable kingdom and how God is still shaking everything that's temporary so that what is eternal will remain. This conversation calls believers to live with reverence, gratitude, and confidence in the consuming fire of God's presence.____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

This Thanksgiving holiday, we return to a conversation with Potawatomi botanist Robin Wall Kimmerer, where she talks about her new book The Serviceberry, which emerged from an essay she wrote for us about the potential of a gift economy to recognize the sacred nature of the Earth. Robin introduces a set of ethical and pragmatic principles, known as “the Honorable Harvest,” that orients us to take only what we need, share abundance, and offer gratitude for what is selflessly given to us; and leads us towards embodying a simple “practical reverence” for the Earth.   Read the transcript.

With stories of chapstick, cranky teens, and making lunches with love, Cheri invites us to stop overthinking gratitude and start living it. This episode ends with a beautiful, breath-centered guided meditation on love and thankfulness.

My guest is DJ Shipley, a former Tier 1 operator Navy SEAL and now a top public educator on how to build mental and physical health and reach top-level performance in any endeavor. DJ's life is one marked by extraordinary strivings, wins, setbacks and comebacks that together have shaped his approach to overcoming challenges of all kinds and to daily life. DJ explains a regimen of clear, practical steps and a mental stance that can allow anyone—male, female, young or old—to build extreme resilience of mind and body and to be successful in family and work. We also discuss his experience with new, emerging treatments for addiction, PTSD and depression that many people, not just veterans, are benefiting from. The tools DJ describes to “stack small wins” and to be ultra-intentional about your mindset will be of immense benefit to anyone wishing to achieve the best version of themselves.
