The Sacrificial Nature of the Mass by Fr. Aaron M. Williams

Is getting life insurance a sign of fear or an act of love? This question divides many Christian families - one spouse wants financial protection while the other believes it shows lack of faith. In this episode of Marked by Grace, Heath Lambert tackles this practical theology question using three key Scripture passages. Discover why biblical wisdom actually encourages planning for future needs, how trusting God and preparing for danger work together, and why life insurance might be one of the most loving things a husband can do for his family.Timestamps0:00 - Introduction: Can you buy life insurance and still trust God?1:12 - Could life insurance be driven by fear? Yes, but not necessarily2:07 - Proverbs 22:3 - The prudent sees danger and prepares3:19 - Proverbs 6:6-8 - Learn from the ant: prepare for coming needs4:48 - 2 Thessalonians 3:10 - Work and trust go together6:44 - A word to husbands: Life insurance as an act of love7:42 - Both positions can be wrong: fear vs. presumption8:15 - Personal example: Life insurance at the Lambert house and churchKey Points- Fear vs. Wisdom: Life insurance could be motivated by fear, but it's more often an act of biblical wisdom - seeing danger ahead and preparing for it.- Biblical Precedent for Planning: Scripture consistently teaches that preparing for future needs is wise, not faithless. The ant prepares for winter, and we're commended to do the same.- Trust and Work Go Together: Just as we pray for daily bread AND work for our food, we can trust God's provision AND plan for our family's future needs.- Presumption vs. Faith: Not getting life insurance isn't necessarily more faithful - it might actually be presuming upon God to provide in ways He hasn't promised.- Husbands' Responsibility: Men are called to provide for their families and love their wives sacrificially. Life insurance can be a practical expression of this love.- Risk Management: Life insurance allows you to pay someone else to assume the financial risk of your death, protecting your wife from having to make difficult decisions alone.- Both Sides Can Be Wrong: The person wanting life insurance might be driven by fear, but the person opposing it might be driven by presumption rather than genuine faith.- Average vs. Reality: Just because the average American male lives to 79 doesn't guarantee you will - planning for the possibility of earlier death is wise stewardship.Scripture ReferencesProverbs 22:3 - "The prudent sees danger and hides himself, but the simple go on and suffer for it." - Biblical wisdom encourages preparing for known dangersProverbs 6:6-8 - "Go to the ant, O sluggard; consider her ways and be wise. Without having any chief, officer, or ruler, she prepares her bread in summer and gathers her food in harvest." - Planning for future needs is commendedProverbs 3:5-6 - "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." - Trusting God doesn't eliminate the need for wise planning2 Thessalonians 3:10 - "If anyone is not willing to work, let him not eat." - Personal responsibility and divine provision work togetherMatthew 6:11 - "Give us this day our daily bread." - We pray for God's provision while also working for itEphesians 5:25 - "Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her." - Sacrificial love includes practical provisionHave a question you'd like answered?

How are the prayers of the Apostles relevant today? Rabbi Schneider shares that as we focus on the intentions in the Apostles' prayers for our own lives, change will take place and we will be transformed. How are we relating to the people closest to us? To grow in God's Spirit is to grow in love towards others. Love involves sacrifice. Sacrificial love puts others needs before our own. Are you resisting the spirit of accusation? The enemy will target your most important relationships with accusation. The enemy wants to divide us from the most important people in our lives. When we think thoughts that produce division, it is not God and it is not love.

Mike reiterates that the whole Church, both visible and invisible, is united in the Sacrifice of the Eucharist. He also further unpacks the importance of a quote from St. Ignatius of Antioch, which states that the offering of the sacrifice of the Eucharist must be united with the apostolic succession of our Pope and bishop.

This Sunday, we’ll explore what it means to live “Life with Him” by loving one another in a way that reflects Jesus Himself: sacrificial, honest, and bold. Let’s lean into the assurance of our faith that comes when our hearts are shaped by His love.

We continue our examination of the sacrament of the Eucharist. Fr. Mike emphasizes that every element of Christ's passion, the whole thing, is one, single sacrifice, and when we celebrate the Mass, we are participating in that same sacrifice. He also reiterates that the Eucharist is both a noun and a verb. It “re-presents” the sacrifice of the Cross. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 1362-1386.

"Então disse Jesus aos Seus discípulos: Se alguém quiser vir após Mim, renuncie-se a si mesmo, tome sobre si a sua cruz, e siga-Me; Porque aquele que quiser salvar a sua vida, perdê-la-á, e quem perder a sua vida por amor de Mim, achá-la-á." Mateus 16:24-25."Ora, o Senhor disse a Abrão: Sai-te da tua terra, da tua parentela e da casa de teu pai, para a terra que Eu te mostrarei. E far-te-ei uma grande nação, e abençoar-te-ei e engrandecerei o teu nome; e tu serás uma bênção." Gênesis 12:1-2. Ora, sem fé é impossível agradar-Lhe; porque é necessário que aquele que se aproxima de Deus creia que Ele existe, e que é galardoador dos que O buscam. Hebreus 11:6

Pastor Danielle Frazer explains that Paul's words to the Corinthians call us to root every gift and action in selfless, enduring love—patience, kindness, humility, and hope—reminding us that without love even the greatest deeds are empty. She points us back to God's own sacrificial heart, showing that love begins and remains in Him.

Mental, emotional, and spiritual healing requires more than clinical technique—it demands sacrificial empathy, institutional trust, and a profound affirmation of the image of God in every human being. In this episode, clinical psychologist and Pine Rest CEO Mark Eastburg joins Mark Labberton to discuss the rising need for mental health care—especially for children, adolescents, and those recovering from severe trauma. Eastburg offers insights about the post-pandemic mental health landscape; psychological and emotional resilience; trauma-informed therapy; deep listening; and the theological, moral, and social commitments that drive Eastburg's approach to mental and spiritual health. They also discuss the systemic injustice underlying many mental health disparities, inviting us to see mental health care as a vital form of justice work rooted in compassion, dignity, and Christian witness. Episode Highlights “We're in the healing moments business. That's what we do … and I think those healing moments are the building blocks of the kingdom of God—just like atoms are the building blocks of the material world.” “We're in the healing moments business. … Those healing moments are the building blocks of the kingdom of God.” “Mental health work is justice work … especially when we're helping people who've been victims of injustice get back into community.” “If you just react to people's symptoms, you'll get more symptoms. But if you can see the beautiful human being underneath, you'll see more of that.” “A Christian approach to therapy starts with the belief that every person is made in the image of God—and they are someone's favourite brother or sister.” “Jesus's care for the outsider, for the downtrodden, the excluded—that has to define what we mean when we say we express the healing ministry of Christ.” About Mark Eastburg Mark Eastburg, PhD, is president and chief executive officer of Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services, one of the five largest free-standing behavioural health organizations in the United States. With a doctorate in clinical psychology from Fuller Theological Seminary, Eastburg has served in both clinical and leadership roles at Pine Rest for over three decades. He is a passionate advocate for trauma-informed care, access to mental health services, and a faith-integrated approach to healing grounded in human dignity and Christian compassion.

A theological chess match unfolds in Mark 12:35-44 as Jesus, having weathered a barrage of trick questions from religious leaders, turns the tables with a single profound question that leaves them speechless. Drawing from Psalm 110, Jesus asks how the Messiah can be both David's descendant and David's Lord—a paradox that reveals the divine nature of the Messiah and exposes the limitations of His opponents' understanding of Scripture.The crowd delights in this reversal as Jesus delivers a scathing critique of religious leaders who parade around in fancy robes seeking recognition and honor while exploiting the vulnerable. His warning about "greater condemnation" for such hypocrites reveals that judgment comes in degrees, particularly severe for those who use spiritual authority for personal gain.The scene shifts dramatically when Jesus sits to observe worshippers making donations to the temple treasury. Among the wealthy contributors, he notices a poor widow who places two small copper coins—her entire livelihood—into the collection. In this quietly powerful moment, Jesus declares she has given more than all others combined, not by amount but by sacrifice.Through these encounters, Jesus demonstrates divine wisdom and authority, revealing profound theological truths, exposing religious hypocrisy, and elevating humble faithfulness above outward displays of piety. His teachings continue to challenge our understanding of true spirituality and what it means to follow God wholeheartedly.Have you considered how you measure generosity in your own life?
