Podcast appearances and mentions of Saint Martin

Read OnlineWhen Jesus saw the crowds, he went up the mountain, and after he had sat down, his disciples came to him. He began to teach them, saying: “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5:1–3The Beatitudes call us to the heights of morality and holiness. Those who live according to these divine precepts are blessed beyond measure. The promises to those who live this high calling are great: They become children of God and inherit the Kingdom of Heaven. Furthermore, they receive comfort, satisfaction, mercy, purity, and peace. Though the rewards are great, so are the requirements: spiritual poverty, holy sorrow, meekness, longing for righteousness, a merciful heart, purity, peacemaking, and patient endurance during persecution.The Beatitudes reveal the culmination of God's moral teaching and the highest revelation of the Christian life. To fully appreciate their significance, it is helpful to understand the history of moral revelation. Doing so is more than a history lesson on God's deepening revelation, it also reveals the path for our spiritual journey toward perfection.Morality begins with the Natural Law—the innate understanding of right and wrong written on the human heart. This Law is from God and is often described as living in accord with right reason or common sense. All people have access to this moral law within their own consciences, enabling them to recognize God as the Creator, honor Him, respect human dignity and the common good, and refrain from acts such as murder, theft, and deception. Though universally present in all people, sin and our fallen human nature cloud our ability to clearly see and follow that law.In the Old Testament, God slowly revealed Himself and called His people to greater holiness and moral living by adding to the Natural Law through revelation. From Abraham and his descendants, God raised up Moses through whom He revealed the Ten Commandments—a concise moral code rooted in Natural Law but explicitly revealed by God that called His chosen people to right worship, justice, and love for one's neighbor.Through the prophets—such as Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel—God called Israel to move beyond mere external observance of the law to an interior conversion of heart. Isaiah emphasized the virtues of justice and mercy, Jeremiah prophesied a new covenant in which God's law would be written on the hearts of His people, and Ezekiel promised that God would give His people a new heart and a new spirit, enabling them to follow His statutes.The wisdom literature—Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Wisdom, Sirach—deepened the understanding of moral life by revealing moral gifts, such as the Fear of the Lord, the blessedness of righteousness, and the call to trust in God's providence and live a virtuous life.The Beatitudes elevate all laws of the Old Covenant. Jesus not only calls us to profound holiness, He also provides the means to achieve it through His Sacrifice, transmitted through the grace of the Sacraments. To live the Beatitudes is to live in imitation of Christ, who perfectly embodied all virtues in His life, Passion, and Resurrection. Hence, the Beatitudes are not only a moral code we must follow, they are a participation in and union with the Son of God, Who lived the Beatitudes to perfection.As we ponder the Beatitudes, reflect today on their high and glorious calling, as well as their rewards. Sometimes, reading the Beatitudes can leave us discouraged, as we are aware of how far we are away from perfecting them. Dispel discouragement and know that these new divine precepts are attainable by grace. Set your eyes on the heights of perfection and open yourself to the abundant grace offered. Doing so will not only result in glorious spiritual rewards in this life, it will also result in the greatest eternal rewards in Heaven.Lord of perfection, You lived the Beatitudes to the fullest during Your life on earth and continue to manifest those perfections from Heaven. Please open my heart to Your grace and fill me with Your Holy Spirit, so that I may answer the call to the new and glorious moral state to which I am called. Empower me to live fully immersed in and guided by Your Sacrificial Love. Help me to inspire others to embrace this path of holiness, so that we may journey together toward the eternal joy of Your Kingdom. Jesus, I trust in You!  Image: Église Saint-Martin de Castelnau-d'Estrétefonds, CC BY-SA 4.0, via Wikimedia CommonsSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life!

La France est inquiète des conséquences de la politique prédatrice américaine dans la Caraïbe. Et la question se pose de savoir si Paris peut compter sur sa présence en Guyane pour peser sur le continent. La Commission des Affaires étrangères de la Défense et des Forces armées du Sénat rendait publique au début du mois de janvier 2026 un rapport de mission. La visée américaine sur le Groenland et l'enlèvement de Nicolas Maduro au Venezuela sont autant de sources d'inquiétudes. Les effets de la doctrine Monroe, invoquée pour justifier la domination des États-Unis dans cet hémisphère et l'émergence de nouveaux États pétroliers aux immenses réserves que sont le Guyana et le Suriname font craindre des risques de déstabilisation, auxquels s'ajoutent le narcotrafic et l'orpaillage illégal. Les territoires français de la Caraïbe -Guadeloupe, Martinique, Saint-Martin, Saint-Barthélémy et Guyane sont aujourd'hui au cœur d'un enjeu géopolitique et sécuritaire d'ampleur. La souveraineté française s'y négocie au quotidien. Invités : Fred Constant, professeur des Universités en Science politique à l'Université des Antilles. Auteur de « Géopolitique des Outre-mer », aux éditions le Cavalier bleu et « Atlas des Outre-mer », aux éditions Autrement Yannick Chenevard, officier supérieur de réserve. Député du Var, rapporteur du budget de la Marine et de l'exécution de la loi de programmation militaire. Chercheur associé au Lab'HOMERe Patrick Roger, ancien journaliste au quotidien Le Monde, auteur de « Nouvelle-Calédonie, la Tragédie », récompensé par le Prix des Députés 2025.

"The holy Hierarch Hilary was born of pagan parents in Gaul, and was trained in philosophy and rhetoric. At a time when paganism was still strong in Gaul, Saint Hilary understood the falsehood of polytheism, and became a Christian, and a great defender of his new Faith. About the year 350 he was ordained Bishop of Poitiers, when Arles and Milan were in the hands of the Arians and the Arian Constantius was sole Emperor. Like his contemporary Saint Athanasius, Saint Hilary's episcopate was one long struggle against the Arians. As Bishop of Poitiers, Saint Hilary foresaw the future greatness of Martin (see Nov. 12), and attached him to himself. In 355, when required to agree to the condemnation of Saint Athanasius by the Council of Milan, Hilary wrote an epistle to Constantius condemning the wrongs done by the Arians and requesting, among other things, the restoration of the Orthodox bishops, including Athanasius. For this, Hilary was banished to Asia Minor, where he wrote his greatest work, On the Trinity. Saint Hilary returned to his see in 360, where Saint Martin sought him out again. It was at this time that Saint Hilary blessed Martin to found a monastery near Poitiers, where Martin remained until being consecrated Bishop of Tours in 371. In his last years, Saint Hilary strove for the deposition of Auxentius, the Arian Bishop of Milan, but by affecting an Orthodox confession Auxentius retained his see. Saint Hilary reposed in peace about the year 368. Auxentius died in 374 and was succeeded by Saint Ambrose, who continued Saint Hilary's battle against Arianism." (Great Horologion, adapted)

Alberto Cavaglion"Nella notte straniera"Gli ebrei di Saint Martin de VésubieFusta Editorewww.fustaeditore.itTra 1939 e 1943 il susseguirsi di tragici even- ti favorì il convergere lungo l'arco alpino oc- cidentale di una cospicua quantità di ebrei in fuga dalle persecuzioni. Le leggi razziali in Italia, lo scoppio della seconda guerra mon- diale e la conseguente invasione della Fran- cia meridionale da parte degli italiani, poi la conquista di Parigi da parte dei tedeschi for- mularono una sorta di fatale legge di gravità, capace di attrarre decine e decine di famiglie: donne, anziani e bambini, che ripararono prima lungo la costa che unisce la Riviera di Ponente e la Costa Azzurra (si pensi a Wal- ter Benjamin o Arthur Koestler), poi lungo il versante francese delle Alpi, dalla valle della Vésubie su fino all'Alta Savoia. La maggior parte di loro erano “stranieri”, giunti in Italia dopo il 1933, o fuggiti da Parigi invasa dalle SS. Polacchi, russi, un- gheresi, austriaci. Tra Nizza e Saint Martin vissero un periodo di relativa tranquillità, che di poco precede la fuga attraverso i valichi al- pini al seguito di una armata in rotta. Per una parte di loro l'arrivo in Italia volle dire pri- ma l'internamento nel campo di Borgo San Dalmazzo, poi la deportazione ad Auschwitz. Per i sopravvissuti le valli cuneesi furono ter- ra d'asilo fino alla Liberazione. Una vicenda di grande intensità emotiva, ma un problema non semplice da spiegare per gli storici. Come sciogliere infatti la contraddi- zione di un paese come l'Italia, che s'era dato una legislazione razziale feroce, ma alla fero- cia rinuncia quando si trova a convivere con le strategie di sterminio dell'alleato tedesco e del regime collaborazionista di Vichy?Che cosa fa, di questo libro, qualcosa di diverso da altri su argomenti simili? Forse il fatto che non è solo documento, o cronaca, o descrizione, o rifles- sione, ma un po' tutte queste cose insieme. Andrea Devoto, La Nuova Antologia, 2152, ottobre-dicembre 1984 Le livre suit avec beaucoup de minutie un épisode fort peu connu. Une contribution très attachante qui doit être versée au dossier ouvert par Marrus et Pax- ton dans un ouvrage déja classique. Claude Lévy, Bulletin de la Société d'Histoire de la Deuxième Guerre Mondiale, XVI, 13, 1982 Una scrittura asciutta, la più lontana possibile da ogni giornalistica ricerca di effetti e che perciò non disperde mai l'insuperabile forza del nudo fatto. Lucio Ceva, Il Risorgimento, XXXIV, 1, febbraio 1982 Cavaglion has pieced together the story of several hundred Jews who moved to Nice in the tiny Ital- ian-held part of France after Mussolini's downfall in 1943, hoping (justifiably) that they would be bet- ter treated by the Italians than by the SS.

En Haïti, alors que les attaques des gangs ne cessent de s'étendre, les transports en commun fonctionnent de plus en plus difficilement. De nombreux chauffeurs de tap-tap (des taxis collectifs) ont été assassinés par des groupes armés. D'autres ne peuvent plus effectuer leur circuit habituel, à cause des affrontements entre groupes armés ou des péages installés par les gangs pour rançonner les conducteurs et les passagers. En ce vendredi matin de décembre, la gare routière où se rend Junior, un habitant de la commune de Carrefour (au sud de la capitale Port-au-Prince), est paralysée après un appel lancé par les chefs de gangs. «Les groupes armés [...] installent des postes de péage un peu partout afin de contraindre les chauffeurs à payer, explique-t-il à Peterson Luxama, correspondant de RFI à Port-au-Prince. Cela entraîne une hausse du coût du transport. Si auparavant un trajet coûtait 50 gourdes [environ 30 centimes d'euros], il faut désormais en payer 150», soit près d'un euro. Les conducteurs voient leurs revenus baisser et dénoncent le manque de soutien des autorités haïtiennes. «Nous ne savons plus à quel saint nous vouer, la situation est extrêmement difficile», déplore Méhu Changeux, responsable de l'Association des Propriétaires et Chauffeurs d'Haïti. «Beaucoup de nos véhicules ont été incendiés, des groupes armés volent les voitures et s'en prennent violemment à nos chauffeurs, mais nous n'entendons jamais de réaction de l'État. Pas même un fonds de garantie n'a été mis à la disposition des chauffeurs pour leur permettre de se relever. L'État nous abandonne, malgré les multiples appels à l'aide lancés par les associations de transporteurs», s'indigne-t-il. Haïti : le viol, une «arme de guerre omniprésente» Le Miami Herald publie cette semaine une série d'articles sur la hausse «alarmante» des cas de viols en Haïti. «Dans les quartiers contrôlés par les gangs, la question n'est pas de savoir si les femmes et les filles seront violées, mais quand», écrit Jacqueline Charles qui, depuis un an, a mené des dizaines d'interviews avec des survivantes et des associations ou centres de santé spécialisés sur les violences sexuelles. «Les viols ne sont pas un phénomène nouveau en Haïti», souligne le journal, surtout en période de crise. Mais le quotidien de Floride parle cette fois d'une «épidémie» tant les cas ont augmenté à mesure que les gangs augmentent leur emprise sur le pays et que les habitants sont forcés de fuir pour vivre dans des camps de déplacés. Un viol a lieu dans le pays «toutes les deux heures». Mais les chiffres dont on dispose (calculés par les Nations unies notamment), sont très probablement «sous-estimés», expliquent les associations d'aide aux victimes interviewées par le Miami Herald. Près de 20% des victimes sont des enfants. Les survivantes sont « stigmatisées », « blamées » par leur propre « communauté voire par leur propre famille », notamment quand elles tombent enceintes après avoir été violées, souligne le quotidien, qui rappelle aussi que l'avortement est illégal en Haïti, même pour les mineures survivantes de viols. Le Docteur Jean William Pape, à la tête des centres GHESKIO, qui accueille des survivantes de violences sexuelles parle d'une «génération perdue». Les associations sont démunies, sous-financées, en particulier depuis que le président des États-Unis, Donald Trump, a fermé cette année l'USAID, l'agence d'aide au développement, remarque le Miami Herald.   Chili : ces jeunes qui votent pour l'extrême-droite Au Chili, le second tour de l'élection présidentielle se tient ce dimanche 14 décembre 2025. Jeannette Jara, issue du Parti Communiste et qui représente une large coalition de gauche, est arrivée en tête du premier tour avec 26% des voix. Elle affrontera un candidat d'extrême-droite, José Antonio Kast (24%), ancien parlementaire de 59 ans. Selon les sondages, ce dernier pourrait remporter l'élection grâce à l'union des droites et à une campagne centrée sur les questions de sécurité, de lutte contre l'immigration illégale. Un discours qui séduit dans toutes les strates de la population, même chez une partie des jeunes. Cette génération, née en démocratie, n'a pas connu les années de dictature (1973-1990), une période que le candidat d'extrême droite se remémore avec nostalgie, lui qui a toujours défendu l'ancien dictateur, le général Augusto Pinochet. «Pour avancer il faut laisser tout ça derrière nous», balaye Fernanda, 22 ans, étudiante en droit rencontrée à La Florida, une banlieue de classe moyenne de la capitale chilienne par Naïla Derroisné. Des militaires sont entrés chez sa grand-mère pendant la dictature (qui a fait près de 3 000 morts et disparus), mais la jeune femme estime que cette histoire appartient au passé. «C'était il y a 50 ans. Mentionner tout ça aujourd'hui c'est pour porter atteinte à José Antonio Kast et sa posture politique. Ce n'est pas ça qui va le définir en tant que président, ce qui va le définir ce seront ses actions une fois au gouvernement», juge-t-elle. Sur un campus universitaire dans le sud de Santiago, Margarita, 20 ans, de gauche, se souvient que pendant un cours sur l'Histoire du Chili, peu de ses camarades connaissaient le président Salvador Allende, renversé en 1973. «Ils ont très peu d'informations sur cette période de l'Histoire chilienne. Aujourd'hui, des jeunes soutiennent Kast aveuglément alors même qu'il a été partisan du coup d'État, qui a été terrible pour le pays», s'inquiète-t-elle.   Dans le journal de la 1ère...  Air Caraïbes relance aujourd'hui sa ligne directe entre Orly et l'aéroport international de Saint-Martin, explique Benoît Ferrand.

A first cruise is a crash course in what you value when you travel. From a lively launch in San Juan to five Caribbean ports in seven days, we share the joy of bioluminescent kayaking, the calm of a French-side beach on Saint Martin, and the green, mountainous bliss of Grenada and Dominica. We also get candid about a tougher moment in Saint Lucia, where constant vendor pressure cut a solo city walk short—and how a simple plan with a vetted driver could have changed the day.We dig into the money side most people underestimate. Solo supplements can double a fare, but there are smart workarounds: Virgin Voyages frequently offers better pricing and social programming for singles; Norwegian and select Royal Caribbean ships have limited studio cabins; Silversea reduces single supplements on some sailings. Beyond the sticker price, budget for gratuities, specialty dining, fitness classes, laundry, Wi‑Fi, and excursions—or pick a more inclusive line to avoid the nickel-and-dime feeling. If you're wondering whether to book excursions at every stop, learn from our missteps: sometimes one well-chosen experience or a simple plan with a trusted local driver beats a packed bus and crowded viewpoints.The real key is matching the cruise to who you are. If big crowds drain you, consider smaller ships or river cruises like AmaWaterways. If sand isn't your happy place, look to Alaska or Scandinavia for fjords, hikes, and cooler air. Traveling with a friend? Set expectations upfront—sleep rhythms, alone time, and activity choices—so the cabin is shared but the day can be flexible. We close by looking ahead to Scandinavia as a better fit for our hiking-first style and invite you to think about your own 2026 plans.If this helped you plan smarter, follow the show, share it with a friend who's cruise-curious, and leave a quick review to tell us where you want to sail next.Support the showhttps://www.cherylbeckesch.com hello@cherylbeckesch.com Instagram @solotraveladventures50

Seeing Others as Christ Sees: The Gospel Call Revealed in Soldiers and Saints I was hungry. You fed me thirsty. You gave me to drink. I was alone, and you were with me. I was naked and you clothed me. This marvelously simple description of the greatness of Christian life. That ability, not so much to see Jesus in each other as to see others as Jesus sees them. Today's Gospel draws from Matthew's teaching on the Final Judgment, . . . . . . where Jesus separates people as a shepherd separates sheep from goats, praising those who cared for “the least of His brothers.” The Homily then focuses on Saint Martin of Tours, a soldier-turned-bishop whose famous act of charity . . . cutting his cloak to clothe a beggar . . . reveals the heart of the Gospel: seeing others as Christ sees them and responding with compassion. Martin's life of disciplined holiness, service, and unwavering focus on Christ is presented as a model of Christian discipleship. Seeing Others as Christ Sees Them The Homily also highlights two American military chaplains whose causes for sainthood are advancing: Father Vincent Capodanno, a Marine chaplain killed in Vietnam after repeatedly risking his life to save wounded soldiers, and Father Emil Kapaun, a Korean War chaplain known for heroic sacrifice, spiritual strength, and care for fellow prisoners of war. Each embodies Christlike service . . . feeding the hungry, comforting the suffering, and valuing every human life. On Veterans Day, the Homily emphasizes that the vocation of a soldier, when lived with compassion and courage, mirrors the Gospel call to serve others. As Christ nourishes and strengthens us in the Eucharist, we are sent forth to care for the hungry, the thirsty, and the vulnerable in our own lives, following the example of these remarkable witnesses.

Every year, around the middle of November, I usually highlight some aspect of the life and work of Saint Martin of Tours. Saint Martin's story is where the origins of our English words, chapel and chaplain come from. His most poignent moment, perhaps, is when he robes a distressed man in the cold of winter. […]

Gospel  Luke 17:7-10 Jesus said to the Apostles: "Who among you would say to your servant who has just come in from plowing or tending sheep in the field, 'Come here immediately and take your place at table'? Would he not rather say to him, 'Prepare something for me to eat. Put on your apron and wait on me while I eat and drink. You may eat and drink when I am finished'? Is he grateful to that servant because he did what was commanded? So should it be with you. When you have done all you have been commanded, say, 'We are unprofitable servants; we have done what we were obliged to do.'" Reflection In this gospel, Jesus continues to reveal to his disciples things that are not in their frame of reference. But Jesus makes it clear that the role that we are given in this world is the role of service. Not being served. The religious people at the time of the disciples were notorious for wanting to be served and not serving. And so Jesus is making it clear, humility is what he wants from us. He wants us to recognize there is nothing greater than being called to serve, and then to carry through with service. It is the greatest role that we have, and it has great dignity and value. Closing Prayer Father, free us from our ego that often looks to make ourselves more than we really are. Give us the humility to simply be a loving, caring, forgiving human being. This is what the Kingdom needs in order to grow, to become, and to come to fulfillment. And we ask this in Jesus' name, Amen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Memorial of Saint Martin of Tours, BishopMatthew 25:31-40"Then the righteous will answer him and say,'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you,or thirsty and give you drink?When did we see you a stranger and welcome you,or naked and clothe you?When did we see you ill or in prison, and visit you?'And the king will say to them in reply,'Amen, I say to you, whatever you didfor one of the least brothers of mine, you did for me.'"

Today, 11 November, is Martinmas, the Feast of Saint Martin of Tours. In Tudor England, it was far more than a saint's day. It marked the great “winter slaughter”, when families across the realm, from manor to cottage, salted and cured their meat to survive the long months ahead. In this video, I explore the man behind the feast, St Martin, the Roman soldier who became a saint after cutting his cloak in half to clothe a beggar, and reveal how faith, food, and survival intertwined in Tudor life. Discover: The story of St Martin of Tours and why 11 November became his feast day How Tudor households prepared for winter by salting meat and preserving food The meaning of old sayings like “His Martinmas will come, as it does to every hog” Why salt was treasured as life itself And how Spain's La Matanza still echoes the traditions that fed the Tudors Martinmas was the Tudor turning point, the end of harvest, the beginning of winter, and a moment of gratitude for what the land and animals provided. #Martinmas #TudorLife #SaintMartin #TudorHistory #MedievalTraditions #HistoryOfFood #FeastDays #TudorEngland #TudorFeast #ClaireRidgway #TheAnneBoleynFiles #TudorCustoms #TudorFarm #HistoryYouTube

What's it like being accepted into Mexican film school and later direct a film that the country chooses to represent its filmmaking at the Academy Awards? My guest, Pierre Saint-Martin, can speak to that as well as a love for sound design and film noir cinematography.The podcast begins its highlighting of international films nominated for the 98th Academy Awards with WE SHALL NOT BE MOVED (2024), Mexico's selection.

He said to the host who invited Him, "When you hold a lunch or a dinner, do not invite your friends or your brothers or sisters or your relatives or your wealthy neighbors, in case they may invite you back and you have repayment. Rather, when you hold a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind; blessed indeed will you be because of their inability to repay you.

1. Mandy gave us important context for the story of Saint Martin of Tours as she talked about the nature of the Roman army within its historical and cultural space. The Roman army was a scary, elite, and powerful arm of Imperial Rome. She went on teach about the themes of the gospel of Mark that develop around the inherent conflict between the gospel of Jesus and the gospel of Caesar. The gospel of Caesar had, at its core a message that “domination proves divinity.” In response, Mark's gospel seems to say, “you occupants of the realm of Caesar, you've heard Caesar's gospel; you've experienced Caesar's domination. Now, meet a different non-dominating king who is actually God's son.” Mark's thesis, Mandy taught, is essential that Jesus is the anti-Caesar. Where in our culture today can you identify the same threads of the message that domination proves divinity or, perhaps, superiority? Are there things that we, as a culture (or you as a human), cannot seem to avoid, and have, at least in some ways, chosen, instead, to worship? What do you think about any places you can identify in which that is or has been true? 2. In Mark 12:13-17, Mandy paraphrased the question that the Herodians & Pharisees ask of Jesus like this: “will you cower before the commanding empire, acquiescing to their perpetual demands? Will you standby while your people are unjustly policed and subjugated by soldiers on the streets? Or will you rebel, and risk the crackdown?” But, Mandy taught, Jesus doesn't answer the question because they are putting the question in the framework of Caesars kingdom. They are asking, “who dominates who?”Mandy paraphrased Jesus' response like this: “you mean the narcissist who puts his face on everything he can brand? Put Caesar back in his place. He may rule you, dominate you, tax you, steal your money through tariffs and whimsical promises; he may crucify you, but he is no god. He's just another tin-pot tyrant.”Where can you see yourself in the Herodian and the Pharisees and the question they ask? What does Jesus‘s response speak to you? What is it? You can learn from examining this exchange in context?3. Below are several important quotes from the end of Mandy's sermon. For this final question, please review each of them one-by-one, and then discuss them. You can ask these equations about each: What do these words bring up for you? How do they make you feel? Where do you find resistance within yourself? Where do you find hope? What else is there to find underneath the layers? What questions are you left with?“Jesus‘s point is that yes, we are all hopelessly enmeshed in the kingdoms of this world. We will be taxed, commodified, conscripted, and colonized. Cesar may have his cross, his whip, his sword, and his taxation, Cesar has no claim on me. The me that is God‘s image does not cower before these implements of war and weapons of desecration. They may hurt my flesh, but they chip and shatter on the indestructible image of God within me.” “Sometimes the most powerful thing we can do when we have no political power is to live by a set of values and principles that exposes the lie of the empire.” “There is no more countercultural value system than love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, and self-control.”

Trying to recover from defeat in 1812, Napoleon had enormous obstacles to overcome.  But these were NOT obvious at the time, surprisingly to us, most of the great and the good expected Napoleon to win in 1813.Tsar Alexander had some very unusual motivations for a major head of state in the Europe of the time.  These motivations, including the mysticisms of the day, are still fascinating.  Swedenborg, Lavater, and Saint Martin all get a look. And then there was a man of almost equal priggishness, Kaerl Heinrich Vom Stein, whose remarkable career and how he ties together Napoleon, Alexander and Frederick William and the new nationalism and new artistic and intellectual movements beginning to arise is worth a deep dive.Stein urged the King of Prussia “Make use of the authority granted you by God to break the chains of your people.  May its blood no longer be spent on behalf of the enemy of humanity!”  But the king was more interested in getting a Bonapart bride for the Crown Prince.The crusade against Napoleon, developed int a crusade for Legitimacy, against Usurpation, but even this early, the Allies could not help using the language of the Revolution and the tools of Napoleon.

Dans la France médiévale, une histoire incroyable se déroule, et elle marquera les esprits pendant des siècles : le dernier duel judiciaire.Tout commence en Normandie, dans les années 1380. Deux hommes, autrefois alliés sur les champs de bataille, deviennent rivaux. D'un côté, Jean de Carrouges, un chevalier respecté mais souvent en conflit avec ses seigneurs. De l'autre, Jacques Le Gris, écuyer brillant, réputé pour son charme et sa proximité avec le comte d'Alençon.Leur opposition prend une tournure dramatique lorsque Marguerite de Thibouville, l'épouse de Carrouges, accuse Le Gris d'un crime terrible : le viol. Dans une société où la parole d'une femme pèse peu, cette accusation fait scandale. Les témoignages se contredisent, aucune preuve matérielle n'existe. Alors, Carrouges décide de réclamer au roi un jugement de Dieu : un duel judiciaire. L'idée est simple, mais brutale. Dieu fera triompher l'innocent.Le 29 décembre 1386, à Paris, sur le terrain de l'abbaye de Saint-Martin-des-Champs, l'événement attire une foule immense. Le roi Charles VI est là, entouré de sa cour. L'enjeu est colossal : si Carrouges perd, il meurt, et Marguerite sera exécutée comme fausse accusatrice. Si Carrouges gagne, Le Gris sera reconnu coupable.Le combat commence. Les deux hommes s'élancent à cheval, lances baissées. Le choc est violent, les armes se brisent. Désarçonnés, ils poursuivent le combat à pied, avec épées, puis haches. Les minutes s'étirent dans un déchaînement de coups, jusqu'à ce que Carrouges prenne l'avantage. Il terrasse Le Gris et le tue sous les yeux du roi. La foule acclame : pour tous, Dieu a parlé.Marguerite est sauvée, et l'honneur de Carrouges est restauré. Mais ce duel restera dans l'histoire comme le dernier duel judiciaire officiellement autorisé en France. Après lui, ce type de jugement par les armes sera interdit, jugé trop archaïque et trop cruel.Cette histoire n'est pas seulement celle d'un combat. C'est aussi un tournant : la justice française commence à quitter le terrain du sacré et de la superstition pour évoluer vers des méthodes plus rationnelles.Le duel de 1386 est donc un symbole : celui d'un monde médiéval où l'épée pouvait encore décider de la vérité… et de la vie.

Read OnlineSomeone in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, tell my brother to share the inheritance with me.” He replied to him, “Friend, who appointed me as your judge and arbitrator?” Luke 12:13–14Many things in life are not fair. Children are keenly aware of this any time they sense they have been cheated by a sibling. They complain to their parents, just as the person in the crowd quoted above complained to Jesus about his brother. We want justice and can become quite upset when we feel that we have been dealt an injustice.The passage above is interesting because Jesus gently but clearly refuses to be the arbiter of justice for this man. It may indeed be the case that he was cheated out of his inheritance by his brother. But it's interesting that Jesus not only refuses to resolve the dispute, He then goes on to teach about greed, suggesting that the cheated man was acting out of greed.If you were cheated out of your inheritance by a sibling, how would you react? If a sibling were to do this, it would clearly be a sin and an injustice. But the question at hand is your reaction to being cheated. Being cheated by another might result in one of two responses. The most common response is to immediately seek justice, to fight back. But this is not always what God will inspire us to do. Instead, when we experience injustice, we are given an opportunity to love on a very deep level. And this must be our response. This is why Jesus said we must love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us. In the big picture of eternity, earthly injustices are always an opportunity for grace. This is evident by simply looking at the gravest injustice of the suffering and death of the Son of God. Jesus did not complain about being so cruelly treated. He did not call on the angels of Heaven to destroy the Pharisees and Romans who attacked Him. Instead, Jesus used the injustice inflicted upon Him as a foundation for His gift of salvation.As we journey through this life, we need to decide whether we are going to live for this life or for eternity. We cannot have both. However, by choosing to live for eternity, we also enhance our lives here on earth in ways that nothing in this world can match. For example, say you experienced the unfortunate situation of extreme poverty. Say you were cheated out of your home and possessions and were left with nothing. Would this make you miserable? It might, but it doesn't have to. Instead, such an unfortunate circumstance has the potential for you to live day-by-day, trusting in God's providential care and to offer mercy in the face of injustice. And that is good. It is good for your eternal soul. It is good because it will motivate you to trust God on a very deep level and to become a beacon of God's mercy. By contrast, if you had everything you could ever want in this world, it would be seriously tempting to rely less upon God and more upon the things you possess in this world. But the things of this world cannot save your eternal soul. In fact, they are a serious hindrance to your ability to trust in God alone. So, truth be told, poverty and injustice actually open the door to an opportunity for much more grace in our lives than material wealth does. But so often we still long to have more and more of the things of this world. Reflect, today, upon the spiritual and eternal blessings that come from relying solely upon God and not upon material wealth. This is a hard lesson for most people to learn. If this is your struggle, then try to take on the eternal perspective. Try to look beyond the temporary stability and pleasures that come from accumulating earthly wealth, so that you will see the eternal riches that come from seeking God alone. Everything in this world will one day pass away. In the light of that fact, recommit yourself to the embrace of God's riches by loving others through every injustice you encounter in life.Most merciful Lord, You endured the greatest injustice ever known. But in the face of that injustice, You offered mercy and the gift of salvation, transforming that injustice into the greatest act of love ever offered. Help me to imitate Your merciful heart and to see injustice, poverty, and every difficulty I encounter as an opportunity to turn more fully to You. Jesus, I trust in You.Image: Église Saint-Martin de Castelnau-d'Estrétefonds, CC BY-SA 4.0, via Wikimedia CommonsSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life!

Lord Alf Dubs is a Labour peer and former MP. He came to the UK from Prague in 1939 on one of the Kindertransport trains organised by Sir Nicholas Winton which rescued mostly Jewish children from Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia.Alf was born in Prague in 1932. His father was from a Jewish background and was brought up in what was then Northern Bohemia while his mother came from Austria. His father left Prague for London as soon as the Nazis invaded Czechoslovakia in March 1939. In June, when he was six-years-old, Alf was put on a Kindertransport train, arriving at Liverpool Street station two days later where he was met by his father. His mother eventually joined them in London the day before war broke out. Alf studied Politics and Economics at the London School of Economics and was elected as the Member of Parliament for Battersea South in May 1979. He lost his seat in 1987 and the following year he was appointed director of the Refugee Council, becoming the first refugee to head up the charity.In March 2016 Alf tabled an amendment to the 2016 Immigration Act (known as the Dubs Amendment) which asked the Government to accept 3,000 unaccompanied refugee children into the UK. The amendment passed but the Government closed the scheme the following year after accepting 480 children.In 2016 Alf received the Humanist of the Year award by Humanists UK of which he is also a patron. In 2021 his Czech citizenship was restored making him the first Czech-British member of the House of Lords.DISC ONE: It's Easy To Remember (Take 4) - John Coltrane Quartet DISC TWO: Smetana: Má Vlast, JB1:112: 2.
