Daily Dose of Hope April 21, 2025 Day 1 of Week 4   Scripture - Mark 8:1-21   Prayer:  Almighty God and Risen Lord, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, We come before you today with praise and a sense of awe.  Even after we have just experienced the glory of the resurrection, we still struggle to keep focus on you.  Help us gather our scattered and distracted thoughts.  Help us take a moment of silence and remember who you are...Holy Spirit, speak to us today.  We want to hear your voice.  In Your Name, Amen.   Welcome back to the Daily Dose of Hope, a Deep Dive into the Gospels and Acts. My prayer is that all of you had a wonderful Easter Sunday yesterday.  Today, we begin Mark 8 and learn about the yeast of the Pharisees and Herod.  Let's get started!   Mark 8 begins with another abundance miracle.  There were a group of people who had been following Jesus and the disciples for several days.  Jesus is worried about them because he suspects they don't have food.  If he sent them away, Jesus says, they might collapse on their way home.     The disciples are a bit indignant.  They don't have enough food to feed all the people.  I find this so strange.  It wasn't long ago that Jesus fed the 5,000.  Why do they not just look at Jesus and say, “Can you do that thing again?”  But it's as if they have totally forgotten.  How quickly life can get back to normal and doubt or cynicism can kick in.  I feel like I see this sometimes with someone who was terminally sick and receives a healing.  They are elated and grateful.  Some people keep that gratefulness, but others gradually forget.  They become disengaged once again, almost like it never happened.    But Jesus does do his thing.  He takes seven loaves of bread and a few small fish and he feeds the entire crowd of thousands until they are full.  This time, there were seven basketfuls left over.    From this place, Jesus and his disciples head to another town on the Sea of Galilee.  The Pharisees are there and ask Jesus for a sign from heaven.  Jesus won't give them a sign, or the one they want.  The whole thing is ironic.  Jesus has been giving all kinds of signs!  He just fed thousands of people with seven loaves of bread.  He has healed all kinds of people very publicly.  I'm not sure the kind of sign they were wanting, but Jesus is clearly a walking signpost for the Kingdom.    I want to spend some time on the next statement that Jesus makes.  He tells the disciples to beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Herod.  Now, what in the world does that mean?  Let's think about yeast.  Just a little bit of yeast can work through a whole lot of dough.  When it comes to bread, we usually think of that as a positive thing.  A little yeast can make a huge amount of bread.  But the yeast that Jesus is speaking of here is more like a contamination.  The yeast of the Pharisees, the religious yeast, or the yeast of Herod, political yeast, can contaminate a large number of people.  It doesn't take much of it to throw us off, to infect a whole crowd, to get people distracted by the wrong thing.  A little bit of this bad yeast can get people focused on religion or politics and away from the bread of life.   This is something we may not want to hear.  But Jesus does not want us to be more religious or more political.  He wants us to be more focused on him.  There is a big difference between being “religious” and being “Christ-focused.”  Religion is not a bad thing at all, until it is.  Likewise, politics is not bad, until it is.  Jesus is making a statement here:  Politics and religion are not the answer to the worlds' problems – he is!  How often do we get this mixed up?   The disciples still don't get it.  They still think he is talking about physical bread.  I read this and think, “Man, these guys are so dense.”  And yet, if I was in their position, I probably wouldn't have gotten it either.  Jesus is turning all they know upside down.  He is saying and doing things that were so foreign to them.  No matter how many miracles they see, they don't get it.  It won't be until after his death and resurrection that any of this begins to make sense to them.    We have the advantage of the whole Gospel story right now.  We can see Jesus' ministry, his miracles, his teachings, the cross, the resurrection, and the beginning of the church.  And yet, how often is the radical nature of the Gospel still lost on us?  How often do we place our own hopes on politics or religion rather than on Jesus? Let's close today with Philippians 2:1-11, Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, 2 then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. 3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, 4 not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. 5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: 6 Who, being in very nature God,     did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; 7 rather, he made himself nothing    by taking the very nature of a servant,     being made in human likeness. 8 And being found in appearance as a man,    he humbled himself     by becoming obedient to death—         even death on a cross! 9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place     and gave him the name that is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,    in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,    to the glory of God the Father.     Blessings, Pastor Vicki  

The Risen Lord speaks truth to us even today! He is with us and He will bless us! Let us bless Him!

Matthew 28:1-10 At dawn on the first day of the week, women go to the tomb and find it empty with an angel saying, “He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.” The women are then instructed to share this news with the other disciples! This Easter, how will you “come and see” the Risen Lord?

In the light of the Risen Lord we rejoice in the new hope we have in our restored relationships with God and one another. (Lectionary #42) April 20, 2025 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com  

Friends of the Rosary,Today, Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord, we celebrate that Christ, who remained two days in the tomb, is risen from the dead, unleashing on the third day God's forgiving and hopeful love in all its power."Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here, but has risen." The words heard by the women at the tomb — Mary Magdalene, Joanna, and Mary the mother of James — are addressed to us today, too.It means that death, sin, fear, and solitude are not the last words. The Resurrection transcends our sinful human nature. Jesus is truly risen.And our hope has the name of the Risen Lord. He restores us to life.Today, too, He walks in our midst, changes us, and sets us free from sin. The Evil One has no power over us.Christ shines and His eternal light overcomes the darkness of the world.Happy Easter!Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.

Have you ever experienced tenacious, relentless love? Mary Magdalene loved Jesus a lot. People who are forgiven much love greatly. The first to see Jesus after the resurrection, she held on to Jesus like her life depended on him. Imagine being loved that much. Ponder a love that will never let us go. What if Someone loves you like that? Message based on John 20:1-2, 11-18.Quotes: Duane Brooks: There is something about Mary Magdalene; When you lose something you go back to the place you last saw it. Duane Brooks: Mary loved a lot. Her love would not let Jesus go.Charles Spurgeon: In thinking over this subject, I have come to the conclusion that Mary Magdalene was selected to see Christ first because she loved him most. John loved Jesus much, but Mary loved him more.  John looked into the empty sepulchre, and then went away home; but Mary stood there, and wept, until her risen Lord appeared to her. Love, you know, is a keen-eyed grace. Love will look for Jesus, and discover him where none else can. Mary stayed right there.Eugene Peterson: Following Jesus doesn't get us where we want to go. It gets us to where Jesus goes, where we meet him in Resurrection surprise, “My Lord and my God.” Those who expect Easter, experience Easter. Peter Larson:  Despite our efforts to keep him out, God intrudes. The life of Jesus is bracketed by two impossibilities: a virgin's womb and an empty tomb. Jesus entered our world through a door marked "No Entrance" and left through a door marked "No Exit."G. K. Chesteron: On the third day the friends of Christ coming at daybreak to the place found the grave empty and the stone rolled away. In varying ways they realized the new wonder; but even they hardly realized that the world had died in the night. What they were looking at was the first day of a new creation, with a new heaven and a new earth; and in a semblance of the gardener God walked again in the garden, in the cool not of the evening but the dawn.Herman Bavinck: The image of God is much too rich for it to be fully realized in a single human being, however richly gifted that human being may be. It can only be somewhat unfolded in its depth and riches in a humanity counting billions of members. George MacDonald:  Troubled soul, thou art not bound to feel, but thou art bound to arise. God loves thee whether thou feelest it or not. Duane Brooks: God's grip won't slip! Who is holding on to you?  The Risen Lord of Life is holding on to us to give us life. Because he is holding us, we may release all of our fears.Duane Brooks: Christ is risen truly, indeed, he is risen. And because Christ lives, we can face tomorrow. #easter #community #faith #resurrection #connectionTo discover more messages of hope go to tallowood.org/sermons/.Follow us on Instagram, X, and YouTube @tallowoodbc.Follow us on FaceBook @tallowoodbaptist

Easter is of course about the Lord's Resurrection after His Crucifixion. But just because the Lord rose and lived again does not mean that we ourselves feel His living presence within ourselves. There is a process of being led to Him; it is a process that involves both the head and the heart, a process that involves grief and joy, faith and doubt. This Easter Sunday we will explore what the Gospel of John has to tell us about finding the Risen Lord in our own lives.

The Resurrection is a reality that we experience today in the here and now. It is not just something that happened in the past. We can have hope in Jesus Christ. Listen to Fr. Frank Donio, S.A.C share more in this segment from the Son Rise Morning Show on Sacred Heart Radio, in his reflection on Pope Francis' homily from the Easter Vigil, 2024. The Resurrection gives us great hope, this is what we celebrate at Easter.‘Brothers and sisters, Jesus is our Pasch. He is the One who brings us from darkness into light, who is bound to us forever, who rescues us from the abyss of sin and death, and draws us into the radiant realm of forgiveness and eternal life. Brothers and sisters, let us look up to him! Let us welcome Jesus, the God of life, into our lives, and today once again say “yes” to him. Then no stone will block the way to our hearts, no tomb will suppress the joy of life, no failure will doom us to despair. Brothers and sisters, let us lift our eyes to him and ask that the power of his resurrection may roll away the heavy stones that weigh down our souls. Let us lift our eyes to him, the Risen Lord, and press forward in the certainty that, against the obscure backdrop of our failed hopes and our deaths, the eternal life that he came to bring is even now present in our midst.Sister, brother, let your heart burst with jubilation on this night, this holy night! Together let us sing of Jesus' resurrection: “Sing to him, everything sing to him: rivers and plains, deserts and mountains … Sing to the Lord of life, risen from the tomb, more brilliant than a thousand suns. All peoples beset by evil and plagued by injustice, all peoples displaced and devastated: on this holy night cast aside your songs of sadness and despair. The Man of Sorrows is no longer in prison: he has opened a breach in the wall; he is hastening to meet you. In the darkness, let an unexpected shout of joy resound: He is alive; he is risen! And you, my brothers and sisters, small and great ... you who are weary of life, who feel unworthy to sing… let a new flame be kindled in your heart, let new vitality be heard in your voice. It is the Pasch of the Lord, brothers and sisters; it is the feast of the living” (J-Y.

We begin by recapping this year's seminary basketball tournament and deciding whether or not Fr. Garett is the right coach for the future of the St. Joseph Joey's basketball program. Then we share our reflections on a powerful passage from the Gospel of John recounting the Risen Lord's appearance to the disciples on the shore of the sea. 

Here we should learn the wisdom from God through the church of the Lord Jesus Christ by Apostle Paul, of what we should be reminded of every day. That is, as God raised Jesus from the dead, so also all that shall receive the baptism of the Holy Ghost shall be raised by God and shall be in eternity with our Risen Lord and our God that chose us.

Prior to becoming one of the twelve, John had been a commercial fisherman along with his brother and father. And nowhere is that part of his background more evident than in verse 11 of the 21st chapter of his gospel. It contains a collection of very specific details connected to the events described in the passage that surrounds it. But the curious thing is that those particulars don't really seem to add to the overall narrative. And that's what draws me to them. In my experience, the Bible NEVER wastes words. So, I invite you to consider with me why John felt compelled to include these descriptions. The disciples who'd returned home from Jerusalem to the Galilee region following Christ's resurrection while waiting for him to fulfill a promise to meet them there, joined Peter in what turned out to be a fruitless night of fishing. Then, as dawn was breaking, a man they hadn't yet recognized as Jesus called out to them from the shore and asked if they'd caught anything. When, unlike any fishermen I know, they admitted they hadn't, he told them they should cast their net on the right side of the boat because that's where the fish were. As crazy as this advice must have sounded, the disciples were apparently desperate enough to give it a try. And when they did, they suddenly found their net so full they couldn't haul it into the boat. But this wasn't the first time some of these men had witnessed a fishing miracle. In the early days of Jesus' public ministry and prior to him calling them to be his apostles, the Gospel of Luke (5:1-6) provides details surrounding a similar night spent working their nets with nothing to show for it. After coming ashore and beginning the process of cleaning their gear, Jesus showed up and rocked their world. He promised them that if they'd head back out and cast their net once more, they'd bring in a catch. So, with Peter's faith leading the way, they swallowed their professional pride, sailed into the deep, and soon found their net literally bursting with fish. Now, three years later, as they once again wrestled to manage a bulging net, the memory of the miraculous catch that launched their journey to becoming

This blogcast explores “Preparing for Lent” written and read by Sarah Harrigan.In this blog post, Sarah shares some of her practices for Lent and how they help draw her closer to Christ. While these can sometimes seem similar to giving something up (i.e. only getting takeout once a week), I challenge you to reframe your thought process regarding these goals. Instead of thinking of them as a negative—giving something up—think of them as adding some sort of value to your life - after all, by offering these acts to God, they are enabling you to participate in Christ's redemptive sacrifice, grow in self-control, and form beneficial new habits. This has been something that I have really struggled with and had to pray over. It has been hard to get out of the negative mindset and focus on transforming myself—mentally, physically, and spiritually—over the course of the Lenten season. However you prepare, I hope that you will go into this holy season with a prayerful attitude and allow yourself to experience change over the course of Lent. I encourage you to find ways to experience the season in an unfamiliar way, to explore new traditions and embrace the holiness of Lent. As we, as a Church, prepare for this Lenten season that will begin on Ash Wednesday, I invite you to take a look at our Lenten and Easter Resource Page. This resource page has many wonderful resources, such as podcasts, webinars, our newly-published “Lenten Activities For Youth and Young Adults” guide, and our “Introduction to Lent: A Time to Draw Closer to the Risen Lord” guide, which has more ideas for practices that can help you enter into the prayerful and transformative spirit of this Lenten season. Author:Sarah Harrigan is the Manager of Communications and Special Programs for the Catholic Apostolate Center where she coordinates the promotions and logistics of various groups and visitors coming to our Green Hill facility.  She also assists with the day-to-day operations of Green Hill and other administrative duties and is responsible for the creation and publication of our Center newsletter.

Fr. Spitzer and Doug discuss the truth within Paul's list of witnesses to the Risen Lord, and how all who corroborate with his testimony that Jesus is alive increases its validity.

Today's episode is a remastered message that takes us on a journey through Revelation 1:9-12, exploring the Apostle John's divine encounter on the Isle of Patmos. As John receives the profound vision of the Risen Lord, we are invited to reflect on our present-day challenges, the shifting values in our society, and the call for revival and repentance. In this thought-provoking lesson, we delve into the contrast between the Judeo-Christian ethic and the emerging self-centered ethic within our culture. Explore the present-day immorality, materialism, and lawlessness, and the role of the Lord's churches amidst these evolving dynamics. Discover how the timeless answers found in the Word of God guide us through the turbulence of modern times. Be inspired by the story of John on Patmos, as the podcast encourages listeners to find their place in doing God's will, and to recognize God's purpose, and prepare for the coming of the Lord. Understand the power of God in the new birth and the need for a Christian's renewed commitment to faith, as history records the devotion of the early Christians and the resilient strength they found in their faith. Whether you find yourself standing alone in your convictions or seeking the answers to today's spiritual questions, this episode invites an introspective journey into the heart of faith. Join us and see with spiritual eyes, as we share insights on living a life of purpose and witnessing the power of God in a rapidly transforming world.

In this special episode, Bunni is joined by our Vice President Ben Quine to discuss Christmas and the knowledge of God. Do we as Believers only love the baby Jesus in the manger, or do we also love the Jesus who will one day be coming in the clouds with fire in His eyes? Bunni and Ben discuss how we can pursue the knowledge of God and the fullness of who Jesus is throughout the Christmas season and into the new year.

Main Idea. Paul's steadfast faith in Christ's resurrection sustained him during his final defense. Driving Question. Why is the resurrection of Jesus Christ the center of our defense? 1. Because the Risen Christ Completes God's Promises (4–8) What's the promise? Psalm 16:9-11 Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices; my flesh also dwells secure.For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol, or let your holy one see corruption. You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore. Isaiah 53:10-11 Yet it was the will of the Lord to crush him; he has put him to grief; when his soul makes an offering for guilt, he shall see his offspring; he shall prolong his days; the will of the Lord shall prosper in his hand. Out of the anguish of his soul he shall see and be satisfied; by his knowledge shall the righteous one, my servant, make many to be accounted righteous, and he shall bear their iniquities. Hosea 6:1-2 Come, let us return to the Lord; for he has torn us, that he may heal us; he has struck us down, and he will bind us up. After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will raise us up, that we may live before him. How was the promise fulfilled? Luke 24:46 Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer and on the third day rise from the dead. John 11:25–26 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, 26 and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. John 10:17–18 For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again. 18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. This charge I have received from my Father. Heb 2:14–15 Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, 15 and deliver all those who through fear of death were subject to lifelong slavery. Application: Rest in, and report, how the promises of God have been fulfilled. 2. Because the Risen Christ Changes People (9–15) Application: Share with others how Christ changed you. 3. Because The Risen Christ Commissions His People (16–18) For what purpose was Paul sent to preach? SO THAT (V18) 1. Illumination. (18) 2. Conversion. (18) 3. A New Government [A face turned from Satan to God]. (18) 4. Forgiveness. (18) 5. A place (a share) among those sanctified by faith in Christ. (18) Application: Your boldness in proclaiming Christ is rooted in your confidence in the resurrection of the Lord. 4. Because The Risen Christ Cares For All Peoples (19–23) The Reality of the Resurrection (takeaways). 1. Christ is the personal reality of the gospel (26:15). 2. Christ has the authority over all of history (6–8; 22–23). 3. Christ has granted salvation to both Jews and Gentiles, and he demands repentance (17–18; 20– 23). 4. Christ is the Risen Lord of Glory (12–18; 23). 5. The Risen Christ is ‘The Cause' For Calling All Men to Repent (24–32) Application: Call all men to faith and repentance. Responses. Repent and turn to God. Repent and keep with it (20). Root gospel conversations in Christ's resurrection. Relate your personal testimony and Christ's work in you. Readily invite people to respond in faith and repentance.

Remembering the Risen Lord; 2 Timothy 2:8-13; David Harl. Scripture read by John Roy Hodges

One of the Twelve Apostles, he was a Galilean by birth. His name means "twin." The twentieth chapter of St John's Gospel describes how, when he doubted the appearance of the Risen Lord, Christ appeared to him again, saying "Reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side; and be not faithless, but believing," at which Thomas cried out "My Lord and my God!" Through this one event the Holy Scriptures attest that Christ is risen bodily, not merely as a spirit, as some heresies claim; and that He is in fact God. After Pentecost, St Thomas proclaimed the Gospel in the East, and established the Christian faith as far as India, where the small remnant of the ancient Church still traces its foundation to him. According to some accounts he met a martyr's end; according to others, he reposed in peace. St John Chrysostom mentions that his tomb was in Edessa in Syria; his relics may have been translated there from India in the fourth century.

Opening Question If Jesus rose from the dead as the Gospel of Mark says, what impact does that have on us today? Introduction The good news of the resurrection is recounted briefly in Mark, but still climatically. Main characters shift from the disciples to the women and Joseph of Arimathea, Pilate, and a “young man in white.” These characters mark a shift in the story to uncertainty, yet promises new things. Mark 15:42-47 Mark locates the timing of Jesus' death to Friday, the preparation day before the Sabbath. He also notes that Joseph of Arimathea provides a tomb for Jesus. One of the most ...

Happy Feast of St. Mary Magdalene! Hello St. Mary Magdalene,  Thanks for tuning into this week's video with me, Fr. Chris. There's a lot going on this weekend as we are celebrating our patronal feast day this weekend so you'll hear some beautiful prayers during the Mass centering on Mary Magdalene and her role as the “Apostle to the Apostles” as the Church refers to her. She is given this title because, as the first person to see Christ Resurrected from the dead, she is sent to the Apostles to proclaim the Good News. In Greek, the language in which the New Testament was written, Apostle comes from “Apostelos” which means “to be sent” so, she, as the “Apostle to the Apostles” can literally mean “the one sent to the ones who are sent.” This same Greek root is the origin of the term “apostolate” meaning the area in which we're sent to bring the Gospel. How blessed then, that we, spiritual sons and daughters of St. Mary Magdalene rejoice in her being the first person to see the Risen Lord. This patronage too is commemorated in our sanctuary artwork with the Latin phrase “Vidi Dominum” which means “I have seen the Lord” the same message she gave to the Apostles 2,000 years ago.   We have the great joy then in sharing this vision of the Risen Lord especially in the Eucharist, the source and summit of our faith. How providential then that the national Eucharistic Convention is currently underway in Indianapolis on this same weekend. Indeed, the Eucharist is the venue through which we too can see the Risen Lord just as Mary Magdalene did. In honor of this, I want to share with you several resources that I have read and recommend in order to foster a deeper love of Christ present in the Eucharist. First, is this wonderful book “St. Mary Magdalene: Prophetess of Eucharistic Love” by Fr. Sean Davidson. In 200 pages this book offers scriptural, historical, and theological perspectives on Mary Magdalene and the radical way in which her encounter with Christ inspired her to change her life and how we, modeling her repentance, can allow Christ to change our life as well. I have about 20 copies of this book which I am happy to give away, if you would like one please email me and I will be happy to leave you a copy.  Second, I would like to recommend Pope St. John Paul II's 2003 encyclical “Ecclesia de Eucharistia” (Church of the Eucharist) where the late holy father inspirationally writes on the Eucharist and its centrality in the life and mission of the Church and of every Catholic. It's about 20 pages so it can easily be read during prayer times in the adoration chapel.  Third, is Pope Benedict XVI's 2007 Sacramentum Caritatis. This 40 page post-synodal exhortation offers spiritual and practical insights on the Eucharist and how we can prepare our souls spiritually to receive Christ. It can be technical and/or practical at times since it's also addressing questions on topics like proper reception of Holy Communion, and active participation in the liturgy.  Fourth, and lastly, is the USCCB's 2021 document “The Mystery of the Eucharist in the Life of the Church.” This 30 page document offers practical and spiritual insights oriented towards a deeper appreciation and entry into the great gift of the Eucharist. There are some phenomenal quotes from saints in here that afford many opportunities for prayerful contemplation of Christ present in the Eucharist. These writings from the USCCB, Benedict XVI, and JPII are all available online and are linked in the description of this video!  In conclusion, I also want to say thank you to everyone who stepped up at my recent adoration appeal. We went from over 40 hours with no adorer down to less than 10! That is awesome and it means that perpetual adoration can continue. Now, it is incumbent upon all of us, however, to maintain our commitments in order to ensure a prayerful space to encounter Christ while simultaneously ensuring safety for all adorers and the Blessed Sacrament! Have a wonderful feast day weekend and may our Eucharistic Lord draw you ever more deeply into His infinite, eternal love! Document links:  1.

Jesus Christ says not just “I was resurrected,” but “I am the resurrection.” Present tense. He comes after his resurrection with his arms full of newness.  I don't know why we get into gift-giving at Christmas—I think we ought to be getting into it at Easter. Because as soon as Jesus Christ shows up risen from the dead, he is giving out all kinds of gifts of newness.  Let's look at these gifts and divide them into two parts: 1) there is the gift of faith, and 2) there are all the rest of the gifts that come out of that. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on April 15, 1990. Scripture: John 20:10-29.
