Send a textA tenth‑century monk from the shores of Lake Van might be the mentor your spiritual life has been missing. We open the doors of Narek Monastery and step into the luminous world of Saint Gregory of Narek—poet, mystic, and Doctor of the Church—whose fierce honesty about sin and blazing love for Christ forged a path from lament to hope. His ninety‑five “conversations with God,” known as the Book of Lamentations, reveal how confession can heal, how adoration can inflame desire for holiness, and how the Eucharist becomes both medicine and banquet for tired souls.We share Gregory's story from his early formation under Abbot Anania to the quiet miracle of global recognition in 2015, when Pope Francis named him a Doctor. Along the way, we unpack the core themes that make his witness timeless: suffering that does not collapse into despair, mercy encountered as a living presence in Jesus Christ, and hope that rises from the wounds of the Savior. You'll hear how his Marian devotion—calling Our Lady Mother of Light and refuge of sinners—deepens his Eucharistic gaze, and why his image of the Church as a healing hospital speaks powerfully to anyone who has ever felt unworthy to pray.For listeners hungry for practical steps, we offer ways to weave Gregory's lines into the Liturgy of the Hours, moments of silence before Communion, and personal prayer. We also trace resonances with Western Carmelite spirituality, showing how Teresa of Avila and John of the Cross share Gregory's summons to interior surrender and bold intimacy with God. Whether you're planning a pilgrimage to historic Narekavank or seeking renewal at a local chapel, this journey maps a clear route: humility, honest lament, Eucharistic trust, and a steady walk toward the Sacred Heart.If this conversation stirs your hunger for deeper communion, subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review to help others find their way to Gregory's healing wisdom.Saint Gregory of Narek's writingsOpen by Steve Bailey Support the showView all of our blog posts here https://journeysoffaith.com/blogs/eucharist-mary-saints Download Journeys of Faith App for Iphone or Android FREE https://journeysoffaith.com/pages/download-our-app Journeys of Faith brings your Super Saints Podcasts Please consider subscribing to this podcast or making a donation to Journeys of Faith we are actively increasing our reach and we are seeing good results for visitors under 40!

There's a very specific kind of comfort that only “Scrubs” can deliver. It's the snap‑cut from slapstick to soul‑crushing. The hallway daydream that detonates into real grief. The sense that medicine is both sacred and absurd, and that humor is the only thing keeping anyone upright. The new “Scrubs” revival understands that alchemy. It is not interested in embalming the past. It is interesting to ask what happens when the dreamers become the grownups, when the interns who once hid behind fantasies now have to lead.On this episode of Bingeworthy, host Mike DeAngelo sits down with Bill Lawrence and Aseem Batra to talk about bringing “Scrubs” back in a way that honors its past without getting trapped by it. The revival premieres with two back‑to‑back episodes on Wednesday, February 25, on ABC and streams the next day on Hulu.For Lawrence, the return starts with gratitude. “Not every show that you worked on gets to have a fan base so passionate that they continue to do it,” he said. That passion, he noted, is alive and well, citing everything from obsessive continuity questions to fans who never stopped revisiting Sacred Heart.

Johnny Mac delivers comedy news focused on the Scrubs revival premiering Wednesday at 8:00 PM on ABC (with Hulu next day).He shares personal enthusiasm for the original series and summarizes details from interviews with Zach Braff and Donald Faison: the revival mixes a young, diverse writers' room with original writers, and centers on JD and Turk reconnecting at Sacred Heart as medicine and a new generation of interns have evolved while their friendship endures.Returning cast includes Zach Braff (JD), Donald Faison (Turk), Sarah Chalke (Elliot), Judy Reyes (Carla), John C. McGinley (Dr. Cox), and the Todd!.Not all characters will appear in every episode due to scheduling.Ken Jenkins (Dr. Kelso, 85) and Neil Flynn (the Janitor) are not in season one yet, with Braff saying it may depend on a potential second season.New cast additions include Vanessa Bayer as a wellness/HR figure with a thick file on the Todd, Joel Kim Booster as attending Dr. Eric Park, and interns named Serena, Asher, Blake, Amara, and Deana; additional intern descriptions include Amara (sheltered, homeschooled), Dashana (confident, written like a young Turk), and Tosh (an Instagram-famous influencer doctor).The episode notes Sam Lloyd's death (Ted) and that the show will pay tribute by naming a new hangout ‘Lloyd's Tavern,' with plans for a tribute episode possibly in season one or season two. Mac discusses the controversy around season nine (the ‘Med School' era) and Braff's preference to frame the new project as a ‘revival' rather than a reboot, citing Bill Lawrence's view that season nine should have had a different title.Spoilers ..........nclude JD returning as a concierge doctor because a patient is admitted to Sacred Heart, Turk as chief of surgery, Elliot as a high-up attending, and Dr. Cox adapting his teaching style to modern wellness rules and workplace norms. The script also revisits contemporary and later reviews of Scrubs, notes criticism about outdated portrayals of women and characters like the Todd, and highlights memorable episodes such as ‘My Screw Up,' ‘My Last Words,' ‘My Old Lady,' ‘My Fallen Idol,' and the season eight finale originally intended as the series finale.00:00 Scrubs Revival Is Here: Johnny's Hype & Personal Connection00:43 What We Know So Far: Premise, Returning Cast & Who Might Be Missing03:03 New Faces at Sacred Heart + Honoring Sam Lloyd (Ted)04:07 The Season 9 Problem: Reboot vs Revival (and the ‘Med School' Debate)05:27 How the Revival Finally Happened: Podcast, Ads, and Scheduling the Reunion06:07 Spoiler Zone: First Look Clips & Where Everyone Is Now07:48 Modern Hospital, Modern Rules: Dr. Cox vs HR, Wellness, and New Interns09:23 Why Scrubs Worked: Early Reviews, What Aged Poorly, and Best Episodes13:11 Final Thoughts + When to Watch (ABC/Hulu)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/daily-comedy-news-with-johnny-mac--4522158/support.Daily Comedy News is the number one comedy news podcast, delivering daily coverage of standup comedy, late night television, comedy specials, tours, and the business of comedy.COMEDY SURVIVOR in the facebook group.Contact John at John@thesharkdeck dot com For Uninterrupted Listening, use the Apple Podcast App and click the banner that says Uninterrupted Listening.  $4.99/month John's Substack about media is free.This is the animal sanctuary mentioned in the February 10 episode.

Delivered by Yurike Gunawan from the Parish of Sacred Heart of Jesus Cathedral in the Archdiocese of Makassar, Indonesia. Genesis 2: 7-9; 3: 1-7; Rs psalm 51: 3-4.5-6a.12-13.14.17; Romans 5: 12-19; Matthew 4: 1-11.GOD SEES ANDALLOWS MAN TO BE TEMPTED BY SATAN The tittle for our meditation on the First Sunday ofLent is: God Sees and Allows Man to be Tempted by Satan. We often askourselves: if God is good, why does He allow people to be tempted? Why didn'the stop the devil right away? In the Garden of Eden, God saw when the first humanbeing was tempted. In the wilderness, God also saw when His own Son, JesusChrist, was tempted repeatedly. God is not blind, God is not negligent. Hesees. He knows. And He allows. But God's permission is not a sign that Heapproves evil. God's permission is always in the plan of love and salvation. God allows temptation because He created man withfreedom. Love without freedom is not true love. Loyalty without choice is notloyalty. If humans can never choose the wrong one, then choosing the right oneis no longer meaningful. So in the face of temptation, man is actually standingbefore an opportunity: whether he will believe in God, or believe in anothervoice. That's where faith becomes real, not just words. The story in Eden shows how human can fall. Whenlistening to the voice of the devil, human chooses a path away from God. Buteven in that moment of fall, God does not leave. He seeks out people, callsthem, and opens the way of salvation. So God never allows temptation to destroyman, but rather to lead man to see how much he needs God. Sin hurts, but theconsciousness of sin opens the door to repentance. Then we see Jesus in the wilderness. He was temptednot once, but many times. Satan tried to shake Him through the hunger, power,and glory of the world. But Jesus did not fall. He answered with the Word ofGod, with full trust in the Father. This is where the light of hope lies:temptation does not have to end in sin. In Jesus, we learn that humans canstand firm. He showed that faithfulness is possible, that God's grace is strongenough to help us. Perhaps in our lives today there is also a"wilderness": the temptation to despair, the temptation to be angry,the temptation to look for shortcuts, the temptation to live away from God.Don't immediately think God is leaving us. Quite the opposite. God sees. God iswith us. And He allows that struggle to be purified in our faith, in order forour hearts to learn to rely on Him again. So don't be afraid of temptation. Be afraid when westop returning to God. When you fall, rise through repentance. When you arestrong, be grateful for His grace. Because in every struggle, God is working toshape our hearts. He never leaves man in temptation. Instead, he opens the wayhome. And on that way home, we find that God's love is always greater than anytemptation in this world.Let us pray. In the name of the Father ... O Father inheaven, fill us with Your power so that we may overcome the temptations in ourlives and choose the way back to You. Our Father who art in heaven... In thename of the Father ...

Full Text of Readings Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 76 The Saint of the day is Saint Claude de la Colombière Saint Claude de la Colombière's Story This is a special day for the Jesuits, who claim today's saint as one of their own. It's also a special day for people who have a special devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus—a devotion Saint Claude de la Colombière promoted along with his friend and spiritual companion, Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque. The emphasis on God's love for all was an antidote to the rigorous moralism of the Jansenists, who were popular at the time. Saint Claude showed remarkable preaching skills long before his ordination in 1675. Two months later, he was made superior of a small Jesuit residence in Burgundy. It was there he first encountered Margaret Mary Alacoque. For many years after he served as her confessor. He was next sent to England to serve as confessor to the Duchess of York. He preached by both words and by the example of his holy life, converting a number of Protestants. Tensions arose against Catholics and Claude, rumored to be part of a plot against the king, was imprisoned. He was ultimately banished, but by then his health had been ruined. He died in 1682. Pope John Paul II canonized Saint Claude de la Colombière in 1992. Reflection As a fellow Jesuit and as a promoter of the devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Saint Claude must be very special to Pope Francis who has so beautifully emphasized the mercy of Jesus. The emphasis on God's love and mercy are characteristic of both men.Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Read OnlineThen he said to the Pharisees, “Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath rather than to do evil, to save life rather than to destroy it?” But they remained silent. Looking around at them with anger and grieved at their hardness of heart, Jesus said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out and his hand was restored. Mark 3:4–5How would you answer this question? “Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath rather than to do evil, to save life rather than to destroy it?” Objectively speaking, the answer is easy: “Yes!” But subjectively speaking, when we consider the person performing the good deed, it's easy to let our thoughts, feelings, and past experiences of that person affect our judgment. If we have a grievance toward someone—resulting in anger, jealousy, or envy—our answer might differ from the ideal, as it did with the Pharisees toward Jesus.Anger is a strong emotional reaction to perceived injustice or injury that, when disordered, can lead to resentment, bitterness, or a desire for vengeance. Jealousy is a fear of losing what we have to another and is rooted in insecurity or pride, leading to a protective but distorted attachment to our own status, relationships, or achievements. Envy is a sadness or sorrow over the blessings or successes of another, often accompanied by a refusal to celebrate their good fortune and a desire that they be deprived of it. These are ugly sins. Sins that filled Jesus' Sacred Heart with righteous anger and holy grief.In this Gospel passage, the Pharisees appear to suffer from all three sins. Their anger is evident in their hostile reaction to Jesus' words and actions, as they see Him as a threat to their authority and influence. Their jealousy manifests in their fear of losing their power and status among the people to Jesus, whose teachings and miracles overshadow their own ministry. Their envy becomes apparent in their inability to rejoice in the man's healing, resenting instead Jesus' authority and the attention he attracts. These sins harden their hearts, blinding them to God's mercy and love that Jesus embodies, and lead them down a path of malice and conspiracy.When we consider the Pharisees' negative and sinful reactions, it's easy to condemn them, thinking we would never react that way. Yet, before we jump to that conclusion, it's important to examine all the relationships and encounters we have with others.Jesus embodies every virtue and spiritual gift—mercy and justice, compassion and strength, diligence and docility, humility and majesty, patience and zeal, wisdom and prudence, faith and fortitude, hope and charity. For which of these did the Pharisees manifest their anger, jealousy, and envy? It's impossible to answer that question because these sins are always rooted in irrationality. The same is true in our lives.Considering the people we encounter on a regular basis, it's important to examine whether we struggle with anger, jealousy, or envy. This is often difficult to do because these sins blind us to the truth. When we are angry, we irrationally blame others as the cause of our anger. When jealous, our insecurity leads us to justify our reaction and condemn the one whom we feel is a threat. When envious, our self-concern distorts our ability to see the good in another, preventing us from rejoicing in their success or goodness.Jesus came to set us free from these heavy burdens. The Pharisees were not happy because these sins dominated their lives. Similarly, we will never find the peace, joy, and happiness we desire until we turn anger into love and forgiveness, jealousy into gratitude, and envy into admiration and rejoicing in the blessings of others. Reflect today on those people you encounter on a regular basis. Where these sins enter into those relationships, accept responsibility for them, confess them, and pray for virtue to replace them. Our Lord wants us to rejoice with Him, participate in His glorious virtues and spiritual gifts, and receive the overflowing rewards that they bestow. Most virtuous and gifted Lord, You embody all that is good, all that is holy, and all that flows from Your divine Godhead. When I act more like the Pharisees than like You, open my eyes to the sins of anger, jealousy, and envy. Free me from these heavy burdens by revealing to me the humble truth and filling me with the virtues and gifts You long to bestow.

Read Online“See that you tell no one anything, but go, show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing what Moses prescribed; that will be proof for them.” Mark 1:44Miracles amaze and inspire us. For that reason, it is common for people of faith to pray for them. They are acts of God's great mercy, but the miracles we pray for are not always part of God's plan. In today's Gospel, Jesus heals a leper who comes to Him, kneels down, and says, “If you wish, you can make me clean” (Mark 1:40). After that, Jesus' Sacred Heart is moved with compassion, so He says to the leper, “I do will it. Be made clean” (Mark 1:41). Once healed, Jesus does something that might surprise us: He tells the man not to tell anyone about the healing. Why the secrecy?This pattern of a divine manifestation of Jesus' power, followed by His command not to publicize the experience, is often referred to as Jesus' “Messianic Secret.” We see this invitation to secrecy especially throughout the Synoptic Gospels. For example, after Peter's confession of Jesus as the Christ, Jesus “warned them not to tell anyone about him.” (Mark 8:30). Similarly, following the Transfiguration, He commands Peter, James, and John, “Do not tell the vision to anyone until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead” (Matthew 17:9). Even when Jesus silences demons who proclaim His identity, such as when they cry out, “You are the Son of God,” He “rebuked them and did not allow them to speak because they knew that he was the Messiah” (Luke 4:41).This pattern of secrecy highlights an important truth: Jesus' identity as the Messiah could not be fully understood apart from the Cross and the Resurrection. At this early stage in His ministry, publicizing His miracles risked distorting His mission, as many people expected a political or earthly Messiah. The fact that Jesus manifested His divine power at times led many to seek Him out for that power rather than for the real purpose of His mission. We must learn from this pattern and seek out Jesus for the right reasons.The Messianic Secret reminds us that while miracles reveal God's mercy and power, they are not ends in themselves. Rather, they point to the deeper truth of Christ's mission. He came to reconcile humanity to the Father through His Passion, Death, and Resurrection. This truth calls us to embrace God's will over our own preferences, humbly recognizing that God's plan unfolds according to His ways and timing, not ours.Do you desire miracles in your life? It's understandable that when we encounter some heavy burden we might ask God to intervene and resolve the situation. God sometimes does so, but only when, in His wisdom, He sees that the answered prayer will bear the most important fruit He desires to bestow: the sanctification of our souls, leading to our salvation.If we want to be followers of Christ, it's important that we follow Him on His terms. The heart of the Gospel message is not, “Ask me for favors and I will grant them.” Rather, it is, “Repent, and believe in the Gospel.” Freedom from sin is more important than physical healings or resolutions to earthly issues. In fact, God often uses physical ailments and other crosses to deepen our trust in Him because they give us an opportunity to unite ourselves to His Passion. This leads to greater holiness and eternal blessings, rather than earthly and passing rewards. Reflect today on the miracles you might be hoping for in your own life. Are you willing to trust in God's wisdom and timing, even if His answer is not what you want? Rather than focusing solely on temporal favors, resolve to deepen your faith in Christ's mission. Commit to embrace His will, especially in moments of suffering or uncertainty, knowing that God's greatest desire is your salvation. Seek first His Kingdom, confident that His plan—whether through miracles, crosses, or quiet moments of grace—will always lead you to a deeper union with Him. All-powerful Lord, You can do all things. At times, You intervene and bring resolution to crosses. At other times, You call me to embrace those crosses with hope and trust, knowing that Your wisdom is far above my own. Please give me the grace I need to seek Your will above my own, trusting that You will work all things for good when I love You with all my heart. Jesus, I trust in You.Image: Georg Pencz, CC0, via Wikimedia CommonsSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.
