Vincent Van Gogh's "Starry Night" is a renowned masterpiece of art that has captured the attention of art enthusiasts for over a century. The painting, created in 1889 during van Gogh's stay at the Saint-Paul-de-Mausole asylum in France, is known for its unique style and technique, featuring thick, swirling brushstrokes and a vibrant color palette. Many scholars and art enthusiasts have debated the painting's meaning, with some seeing it as a representation of van Gogh's mental turmoil and others interpreting it as a symbol of hope and transcendence. Despite its initial lack of success, "Starry Night" has become one of the most recognizable and beloved works of art in the world, inspiring countless artists and art lovers alike. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/vidalsocial/support

"At the time of the holy Patriarch Thomas I of Constantinople (607-610), the relics of some unknown holy Martyrs were discovered buried in the district of Eugenius. As soon as the Patriarch exposed them for the veneration of the people who gathered from all over the city, numerous healings took place.   "Many years had gone by when a clergyman named Nicolas, who worked as a book copyist, learnt by divine revelation that among these anonymous relics were those of Saint Paul's disciples, the holy apostles Andronicus and Junia, who are mentioned in the Epistle to the Romans (16:7). The Emperor Andronicus I (1183-5) built a beautiful church at the place where thise relics were venerated." (Synaxarion)

Saint Paul's Galatians: Are You Saved? (instituteofcatholicculture.org)

February 22: Chair of Saint Peter, Apostle Feast; Liturgical Color: White The gift of authority serves order and truth in the Church It's unusual to have a feast day for a chair. When we think of a chair, perhaps we think of a soft recliner into which our body sinks as if into a warm bath. Or our mind turns to a classroom chair, a chair in a waiting room, or one at a restaurant. But the chair the Church commemorates today is more like the heroic-sized marble chair which holds the giant body of President Lincoln in the Lincoln Memorial. We commemorate today a chair like the judge's in a courtroom or that unique high-backed chair called a throne. These are not ordinary chairs. They are seats of authority and judgment. They hold power more than people. We stand before them while their occupants sit. Judges and kings retire or die, but chairs and thrones remain to hold their successors. The Nicene Creed even describes Jesus as “seated” at God's right hand. The fuller, symbolic meaning of the word “chair” is what today's feast commemorates. Against the farthest wall of Saint Peter's Basilica in Rome is not a statue of Saint Peter, as one might imagine, but a heroic-sized sculpture framing a chair. To celebrate the Chair of St. Peter is to celebrate the unity of the Church. The chair is a symbol of Saint Peter's authority, and that authority is not meant for conquest like military power. Ecclesiastical authority is directed toward unity. Jesus Christ could have gathered an unorganized group of disciples united only by their common love of Him. He didn't. He could have written the Bible Himself, handed it to His followers, and said, “Obey this text.” He didn't. Jesus called to Himself, by name, twelve men. He endowed them with the same powers He possessed and left this organized band of brothers as an identifiable, priestly fraternity specifically commissioned to baptize and to preach. In North Africa at the time of Saint Augustine, twelve co-consecrating bishops were canonically required at the ordination of a bishop, mirroring “The Twelve” called by Christ. What a profound liturgical custom! Today the Church requires only three co-consecrators. What is even more striking about Christ's establishment of an orderly Church structure is its double organizing principle. The Twelve's headship over the many is itself subjected to the headship of Saint Peter. He is the keeper of the keys, the rock upon which the Lord built His Church. This all makes sense. What good would a constitution be without a Supreme Court to adjudicate disputes over its interpretation? Any authoritative text needs a living body to stand over it to arbitrate, interpret, and define, with authority equal to the text itself, any and all misinterpretations, confusions, or honest disputes. Just as a constitution needs a court, the Bible needs a Magisterium. And that Magisterium, in turn, needs a head as well. The authority of the papal office, doctrinally, is a negative charism preserving the Church from teaching error. It is not a guarantee that the pope will teach, explain, or live the faith perfectly. Christ guaranteed that the gates of hell would not prevail against the Church. That's a negative promise. But this promise also prophesies that the Office of Peter will be a lightning rod absorbing strikes from the forces of evil, that this Church, and no other, will be the target of the darkest of powers. A real Church has real enemies. The Church has never had an Office of Saint Paul. When the person of Paul disappeared, so did his specific role. But the Office of Peter continues, as does the Office of all the Apostles. In other words, the Church has both a foundation and a structure built on that foundation. And authority in that structure is not transmitted personally, from father to son or from one family to the next. Authority attaches to the Office of St. Peter and endows its occupant with the charisms promised by Christ to Saint Peter. And this charism will endure until the sun sets for the last time. As long as there is a Church, it will teach objective truth guaranteed by objective leadership. And that leadership, symbolized in the Chair of St. Peter, is directed toward unity. One Lord. One faith. One Shepherd. One flock. The united fabric of the Church, so fought for, so torn, so necessary, is what we honor today. God in Heaven, we thank You for the ordered community of faith we enjoy in the Church. Saint Peter guided the early Church and guides Her still, ensuring that we remain one, holy, catholic, and apostolic until the end of time. Continue to grace Your Church with the unity so necessary to accomplish Her mission on earth.

In many ways, Jesus mentored the apostles. Saint Paul had a mentor, and became one to many. What role can mentors play in our lives, how do we find one, and how can we be one for others? In this episode, we explore the role of mentors in evangelization and discipleship, and how we can help others God calls us to mentor.Thanks for listening!

"For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you received a spirit of adoption, through which we cry, 'Abba, Father!'"~ Romans 8:15When someone has experienced separation or trauma, especially as a child, it can be challenging for them to feel safe in attachment with others. Yet, close connections are a powerful source of healing and wholeness for all of us, especially for those who have suffered. How can we step into connection and attachment, even - and especially - when it's difficult?In this exceptional conversation, Ryan O'Hara invites us into his experience of fostering and adoption: his preconceptions, his journey of mental health & healing, his growth as a father and as a person, and especially his identity as a child of God.

A daily news briefing from Catholic News Agency, powered by artificial intelligence. Ask your smart speaker to play “Catholic News,” or listen every morning wherever you get podcasts. www.catholicnewsagency.com - The US bishops on Tuesday opened registration to attend the first National Eucharistic Congress in 83 years. The National Eucharistic Congress will take place in Indianapolis July 17-21, 2024, and will be “a defining moment in our generation,” according to the website for the event. A five-day event of prayers, speakers, and liturgical celebrations, the congress will be the capstone of the bishops' three-year National Eucharistic Revival campaign, which began June 19, 2022. The congress is expected to have a festival-like atmosphere, similar to World Youth Day, and will likely draw a crowd of 80,000 faithful. The decision to undertake the initiative followed a 2019 Pew survey that revealed that only 31% of Catholics believe that the Body and Blood of Christ are truly, really, and substantially present in the Eucharist. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/253654/bishops-open-registration-for-first-national-eucharistic-congress-in-83-years Michigan Catholics sought solace and support one day after three students were killed in a shooting on the campus of Michigan State University in East Lansing, Michigan. Two of the victims of Monday night's shooting had ties to Detroit-area Catholic parishes. The three were killed after a 43-year-old gunman opened fire on campus, injuring five others before apparently taking his own life. The gunman had no known ties to the university, according to the newspaper, and a motive for the attack was still unknown. A Mass was offered Tuesday night at St. John Church and Student Center on MSU's campus — about two blocks north of the February 13 incident — for the repose of the souls of those who died. In his homily, Father Peter Ludwig reminded the students gathered of God's love for them in the midst of tragedy. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/253653/understand-that-he-still-loves-you-catholics-mourn-victims-of-michigan-state-shooting Today, the Church celebrates Saint Onesimus, a slave to Philemon, an influential man who had been converted by Saint Paul. Onesimus offended Philemon and fled in order to escape any sort of retribution. He then met Saint Paul while Paul was in a Roman prison. Shortly after, Onesimus was baptized. Later, as Saint Jerome and other fathers testify, he became an ardent preacher of the Gospel and succeeded Saint Timothy as bishop of Ephesus. His martyrdom occurred under Domitian in the year 90. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/saint/st-onesimus-149

Patrick continues taking calls about cell phone and porn addiction and strongly recommends not giving children cell phones Joe - I am a recovered sex addict. I got through it because of the great advice from priests during confession. Porn is nothing but fast food. Cecilia - Is there a letter from Saint Paul that talks about Anthropology? Lia - Giving kids phones: My kids don't have phones; how do I handle this since everyone else does have a phone? Annmarie - Is there really fire in hell? I heard that hell is not literally fire. Henry - I was a police officer and child porn is something we dealt with. Mark - Is there a resource that talks about the destruction of porn in society for someone who is struggling with porn? Patrick - I am a porn addict and it has ruined my life. Parents need to put protections on their own phones. Ann - My friend is in prison for child porn. It cost him his job and marriage.

And that generally will bring out a more authentic version of the person that you're speaking to." In this episode, you will learn the following: 1. How the Saint Paul & Minnesota Foundation implements DEI and ESG strategies to maintain a portfolio aligned with the Foundation's mission 2. How the Foundation works with managers to help them grow into true partners of the Foundation's mission 3. What strategies Shannon O'Leary employs to detect when something is "not quite right" in conversations with asset managers Shannon began her career as an analyst at Dearborn Partners in Chicago after earning a bachelor's degree in economics with a concentration in high-energy physics from the University of Wisconsin—Madison. She recently started publishing a newsletter, Say it Out Loud, that looks at how to initiate change in the investment industry.   Resources: ·      Say It Out Loud | Have We Reached Peak Stupid? ·      Say It Out Loud | How to Not Get a Second Meeting: A Guide ·      Say It Out Loud | Why (Actually) Looking at Your DEI Survey is a Good Idea   Other Episodes You'll Enjoy: ·      Jennifer Heller (Brandywine) | Investing Renaissance ·      Dusty Granet (Green Trading Capital) | Green Trading ·      Patricia Lizarraga (Hypatia Capital) | The Female Factor         Chapter Summaries:   [00:02:57] Emotional Intelligence   [00:08:21] Unconventional Due Diligence   [00:12:57] Diverse Management Teams   [00:16:28] Journey to CIO   [00:20:59] Effective Investment Decisions   [00:30:42] Community Foundations   [00:35:29] Saint Paul & Minnesota Foundation   [00:43:16] Partnering with Managers   [00:47:53] Saying It Out Loud

"Saint Peter was a humble, devout and peace-loving man, unlike his father, Tsar Symeon the Warrior (d. 927), during whose reign there had been perpetual warfare. By contrast, Peter's long reign was peaceful, and notable for the restoration of good relations with Byzantium and with the West. Peter married Maria, the grand-daughter of the Emperor Romanus Lecapenus, who recognized him as basileus (tsar or king), and he obtained independence from Constantinople for the Bulgarian Church with its own Patriarch. He had a great love for Saint John of Rila (19 Oct.), whom he would often consult, and he kept in touch with renowned ascetics of the time like Saint Paul of Latros (15 Dec.). The King acted energetically against the Bogomil heresy, an offshoot of Manicheism, by which some of his people, lacking sufficient instruction in the faith, were being misled. He called a council in order to condemn the heresy and reassert Christian principles. Nevertheless, the infection was to remain active for many years in Bulgaria. Following the invasion of the north of his Kingdom by Prince Svyatoslav of Kiev in 969, Peter abdicated and became a monk. He died in the following year, having consecrated his final days to God alone." (Synaxarion)   A note on the Bogomils: The Bogomils flourished in the Eastern Europe as an organized church from the 10th to the 15th century. In theology they were dualistic, incorporating some Manichean and Gnostic ideas from the Paulicians. They were nationalistic and gained much support through their opposition to Byzantine dominance over the Slavic peoples. They disappeared as an organized body around the fifteenth century, but elements of their beliefs persisted in popular thinking for many centuries afterward.

“Saul, my brother, the Lord has sent me, Jesus who appeared to you on the way by which you came, that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.” Acts 9:17Saint Paul (who in Hebrew was known as Saul of Tarsus) was a devout Jewish Pharisee who vigorously defended the law. After Jesus' Ascension into Heaven, the newfound Christian faith began to grow rapidly. As a result, Saul of Tarsus vigorously tried to end this new religion which he perceived as erroneous. He traveled about looking for followers of Jesus to arrest and imprison. Saul even gave his consent to the stoning of the deacon, Saint Stephen, the first martyr. However, on one of his journeys, Saul had a vision of the risen Christ Who spoke to him gently, saying, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?” (Acts 9:4). It was in that encounter that Saul was left blinded for three days.The line quoted above are the words of Ananias, a devout disciple of Jesus. Ananias had also received a vision from Jesus Who told him to go to Saul of Tarsus and to lay his hands on him so that he would be healed. Ananias was also told that Saul was “a chosen instrument” through which the Gospel would be preached to the “Gentiles, kings, and children of Israel.”Though there are many fascinating aspects to the story of Saint Paul and his conversion, it is also inspiring to reflect upon the way in which God first converted him. Jesus was not harsh with Saul. He was not condemning. Instead, he saw the goodness and vigor of Saul and knew that he would respond if he were given the opportunity. Though Jesus used the powerful action of striking him blind, He did so because He saw so much potential for good within Saul.This same truth applies to our lives. Each one of us has incredible potential for good, and God does see this. God is aware of all that He can do with us and is seeking to draw us into His mission of sharing the Gospel with those in need. The question to ponder is whether or not you have responded to the ways that God has spoken to you and invited you to serve Him with your life. Saul's encounter with Jesus was powerful and transforming not only because he was blinded by this vision—it was powerful and transforming, first and foremost, because Saul wanted to serve God but was trying to do so in an erroneous way. And once that error was corrected, Saul responded in an immediate and complete way. As a result, Saul became one of the greatest evangelists in the history of the Church.Reflect, today, upon the desire in the heart of Jesus to invite you into His mission. Though you may be unaware of the many ways God can use you, Jesus is fully aware. He sees all of your gifts and knows who He wants to draw to Himself through you. Say “Yes” to Him this day and do so with every fiber of your soul. Doing so will allow God to do great things through you.Lord, I do love You and desire to be used by You in the way that You choose. Help me to convert my heart more fully to You so that I can be led by Your gentle and powerful hand. I accept whatever mission You give to me and pray that my life will give You true glory and further Your glorious Kingdom on earth. Jesus, I trust in You.Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2023 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved. Used with permission via RSS feed.
