Hope for Right Now Podcast – Grace and Glory: Philippians 4 Join Lisa and Laura for this final episode of our four-week podcast series—Grace and Glory, based on Saint Paul's letter to the Philippians. Often called The Epistle of Joy, Saint Paul's letter overflows with rejoicing, gratitude, and encouragement—amazing, when you consider that Paul wrote it from a prison cell. As women seeking joy but who often feel confined by our circumstances, what was Saint Paul's secret? How do we rejoice in our suffering? How do we remain grateful when our situation is the opposite of what we were hoping for? In this final episode of Grace and Glory, Lisa and Laura talk about conflict in ministry, living like Christ, and what it means to be content in all things. Open your Heart to our key Scripture. Philippians 4 Open your Bible to other Scriptures referenced in this episode. Philippians 4:2 RSVCE: I entreat Eu-o′dia and I entreat Syn′tyche to agree in the Lord. NIV: to be of the same mind. NASB: to live in harmony with the Lord. NLT: settle your disagreement. GNT: to agree as sisters in the Lord. Ephesians 3:20–21: Now to him who by the power at work within us is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, to him be glory in the Church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, for ever and ever. Amen. Invite Him in with this episode's questions for reflection. Are you experiencing conflict in a relationship or ministry? How can Saint Paul's encouragement help you come to a place of peace and harmony? Saint Paul had the integrity to present himself as an example of the way to follow Christ. He really could say, “Follow me as I follow Jesus.” Can you say this? If not, looking at Philippians 4 verses 8-9, which precepts of morality do you need to work on? What keeps you from being content in all circumstances? Take all your unmet longings, unfulfilled desires, and unmet dreams and bring them to God. Show mentions. New WWP merch in our Christmas shop!

La Porta | Renungan Harian Katolik - Daily Meditation according to Catholic Church liturgy
Delivered by Calvin from the Parish of Hati Santa Perawan Maria Tak Bernoda in the Archdiocese of Jakarta, Indonesia. Romans 16: 3-9.16.22-27; Rs psalm 145: 2-3.4-5.10-11; Luke 16: 9-15.IT IS NOT PERMISSIBLE TO SERVE TWO MASTERS Our meditation today is entitled: It is notpermissible to serve two masters. There is a simple employee named Luke whoworks honestly every day even though his salary is not big. He refuses toaccept small bribes that could increase his income, because he wants to live inGod's providence. At first he was seen as stupid by his colleagues, but after afew years, his honesty earned him trust to lead a major project. Luke not onlyreceived a promotion, but was also respected for his integrity. Faithfulness insmall things brings great blessings, like God's own promises. Jesus says in the Gospel of Luke that no one can servetwo masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will beloyal to the one and ignore the other. "You cannot serve God andMammon" (Lk 16:13). This expression rebukes people who often want to holdtwo things at once: serve God, but still maintain attachment to wealth,comfort, or ego. Jesus reminds that the direction of the human heart can onlylead to one center of love. If God is the center, then all life will bedirected to glorify Him. But if Mammon — the symbol of greed and worldly power— takes center stage, then life loses its spiritual light and meaning. Serving God means making His will the basis of everychoice, even in seemingly minor matters. Jesus affirms, "Whoever isfaithful in small things is faithful also in great." True loyalty does notwait for a great opportunity, but is proven through sincerity in simplematters: honesty in work, patience in the face of difficult people, andgenerosity towards others. God doesn't see how much work we produce, but ratherhow much love moves that action. Saint Paul also gave an example of this. In hisletters, he often expressed his gratitude to those who faithfully served himduring his Gospel preaching journey. They not only helped materially, but alsoprovided faithfulness, prayer, and support when Paul was suffering. Theirfaithfulness shows that service is not just a task, but a form of love that isconstantly given, even when no one is watching. True faithfulness and dedication require a cleardecision: choosing God as the only source of life. The world may offer a lot ofinteresting things—power, money, and popularity—but all of that passes quickly.On the contrary, faithfulness to God produces inner peace and joy that cannotbe bought. A person who serves the Lord lives in the belief that every blessingand trial is part of His plan of love. Let us pray. In the name of the Father ... O Lord, strengthenour faith so that we can keep Your will first and be able to abandon allinterests that can distance us from You. Glory to the Father and to the Son andto the Holy Spirit ... In the name of the Father ...

Delivered by Evelyn from the Parish of Holy Spirit in the Archdiocese of Singapore. Romans 15: 14-21; Rs psalm 98: 1.2-3ab.3cd-4; Luke 16: 1-8.INITIATIVE OFBELIEVERS The title for ourmeditation today is: Initiative of Believers. In a village settlement, the roadto the primary school is always flooded for several days even though the rain alreadystopped. As a consequence, people always take off their sandals or shoes, thenroll up their trousers so they don't get wet and dirty. The teachers who passby there, always took off their shoes and rolled up their trousers. Studentsalso do the same. But there occurs something special. Rio, a grade 4elementary school boy, collected several stones he found around the place. Heput a stone along the puddle. As a result, anyone who passes there after Rio,can stand and walk on these stones, without having to take off the shoes androll up the trousers. Rio made an initiative that nobody else thought of. The word"initiative" comes from the Latin "itiare" or"initium" means starting or beginning. For a job or work, theinitiative means to take or make the first step and make a breakthrough. In theGospel passage we have just heard, the Lord Jesus explains that the rich masterpraises his clever employee, even though he is dishonest because he manipulatesthe data of his master's debts. This"clever" attitude is interpreted as the ability to forsee the future.The employee represents many of us who often worried about tomorrow. There arepeople who save a lot in the bank. The other invest many in the form ofproperties. Still others want to guarantee their future by sending theirchildren and grandchildren to the best schools and universities. These are allforms of initiative. People can do some initiatives through dishonest ways likethat employee of the rich master, or vice versa in true and honest ways. Wewill be pleased by God for being able to count for our future, for a better andjoyful life. For the spirituallife, we need spiritual initiatives. Saint Paul describes his future as brightas Jesus Christ, so that he could serve other nations, especially the Romans asexpected. They were promised a glorious spiritual dwelling in the future as childrenof light, to enjoy happiness in the Kingdom of God. Initiative in faith teachesus to take the first step to enlighten those who are confused, anxious,hopeless and lost in their faith journey; being a peacemaker in the midst ofhatred and anger; become the creator of justice rather than the ghost ofinjustice; become a bearer of truth rather than spreading lies and deception.And much more. This is the future that God wants.Let's pray. In the name of the Father... O Lord Jesus Christ, enlighten us always in the path of our lives day byday, that we may walk without barriers toward you. Glory to the Father and tothe Son and to the Holy Spirit ... In the name of the Father ...

Delivered by Gladys from the Parish of Saint Gabriel in the Diocese of Bandung, Indonesia. Romans 13: 8-10; Rs psalm 112: 1-2.4-5.9; Luke 14: 25-33.THE SUPREME LAWIS LOVE Our meditation today is entitled: The Supreme Law isLove. Since the time of the inauguration, the President, Vice President and theministers have really played the role of being public figures, public servants,and role models for all citizens. Their words and actions are seen by everyone.Leaders at the local levels and in private institutions also make an oath to begood servants and examples for many people. In short, they inevitably have to live in the spiritof love. The universal criterion of law is love, which is the commander inchief in the system of manners, customs and positive laws in the life ofcitizens. To be honest, the democratic system and the administration of thestate anywhere in the world, choose to be oriented towards love, if we want thecountry to be safe, just, peaceful, and prosperous for every citizen. Even the largest modern democracy like America is indire need of love. They are tired of all the political phenomena and turmoil,especially because of the actions of their leaders. Not only the United States,many countries are also facing a crisis of public trust in their leaders. Ifthere is love, then the messages and actions they convey will certainly producea sense of peace and comfort in society. Because of that love, things that deal with justiceare given a path so that justice is realized. Those related to a sense ofcomfort and security are given space to grow. If peace is sought, attention toit is optimized. Likewise, tolerance and solidarity in diversity continue to beencouraged and we need to work hard to bring it about. Love can enter all areas of life, influence it, andthen animate everything. That means love is present in all and reigns over all.Saint Paul says in the first reading that love is the fulness of the law. OnlyGod can do all of this. So, love is God Himself. He is above all forms ofrules, norms and laws that govern all the steps of our lives. The Lord Jesus advises us today that, in situationswhere conflict occurs because of existing differences, the best way is toabandon or detach ourselves from the egos of each other that tend to sharpenconflict. We must rise to a higher level, that is, God's own love is the mainreference. Only then can we find solutions for our lives.Let us pray. In the name of the Father... God the Father inheaven, save us from all situations of conflict and opposition only by gettingrid of every very strong self-interest, so that we can live together in thespirit of Your love. Our Father who art in heaven... In the name of the Father...

Jews are God's Chosen People, and it is through God's gratuitous gift of grace that the rest of the world (the Gentiles) are grafted onto the tree of salvation. Get “From Sinai to Rome” Here: https://ignatius.com/from-sinai-to-rome-fstrp Pope Pius XI once remarked, “Spiritually, we [Catholics] are all Semites,” and, as Saint Paul writes in Romans, in a sense, Christians are Jews by adoption. In today's episode, Andrew Petiprin is joined by Professors Angela Costley and Gavin D'Costa, who examine the question of Jewish–Catholic relations from every angle. They not only discuss how the Church is uniquely opposed to antisemitism, but also how the Church is deeply rooted in Judaism. Finally, they discuss the reality of Hebrew Catholics and their role in the Body of Christ. SUBSCRIBE to our channel and never miss an episode of the Ignatius Press Podcast.

Delivered by Alice Budiman from the Parish of Salib Suci Cilincing in the Archdiocese of Jakarta, Indonesia. Romans 12: 5-16a; Rs psalm 131: 1.2.3; Luke 14: 15-24.THE HOUSE OF GOD MUSTBE FULL Our meditation todayhas the theme: The House of God Must Be Full. Today,the Church commemorates Saint Charles Borromeo. He came from a wealthy noblefamily and enjoyed high social standing as the nephew of Pope Pius IV. He washighly educated, becoming a lawyer, both civil and Church at the age of 21.Charles certainly had the potential to become a prominent and important figure. But his life's pathled him to become a diligent, pious, and dignified servant of the Church, sothat until his death he was an Archbishop and Cardinal leading the Archdioceseof Milan. He worked diligently and humbly in all the tasks entrusted to him bythe Church. Within the Church, he became the patron saint of priests. Charlesgave up all desires and activities in the social and political world because ofhis great intellectual ability and influence, and followed God's invitation tobecome a servant of the Church as a shepherd of the people and a wise teacherof God's people. God invites with theintention that all of His creations be saved. Why do people deliberatelydecline invitations to be saved? In a sense, we can understand that ourpractice of faith is sometimes incomplete and not serious. It is easy forpeople to say "yes" with their faith and membership in the Church.But in reality they do not come to strengthen unity among the faithful, to beactively involved in the Church activities, to sacrifice themselves for theirsuffering fellow-men, and offer themselves voluntarily in the service andmission of the Lord Jesus in the world. We need to continueto believe that the Church and the Kingdom of God that the Lord Jesus hasentrusted to us, still need to be developed and perfected, and if necessary beable to rule the entire world. We are the ones who must fulfill ourselves inaccordance with the scriptures and teachings of the Church. The emphasis mustbe on the role of each person as believer, and not merely on any organization,institution or movement from outside. About this, SaintPaul gives us an advice: if each of us makes use each of his personal gifts: asa preacher, office employee, teacher, farmer, businessman, servant and so on,and to be strengthened by the Christian spirituality, we can feel sure tofulfill the invitation to the kingdom of God. The principle is: none of us comeand join as an empty self. The gifts in every person should not remain in vain. Let's pray. In the name of the Father... O God and mercyful Father, strengthen us to develop and make use of everygift in each one of us, so that we can build together the unity in the Churchand in this world. Hail Mary, full of grace ... In the name of the Father ...

Delivered by Josephine Mercy Ho from the Parish of Sacred Heart of Jesus Cathedral in the Archdiocese of Makassar, Indonesia. Romans 11: 29-36; Rs psalm 69: 30-31.33-34.36-37; Luke 14: 12-14.JUST GIVE AND DON'TEXPECT THE RETURN The title for ourmeditation today is: Just Give and Don't Expect the Return. A 28-year-old youngman finally decided to get married. He had carefully considered everything,especially the matter of proposing to his future wife. Previously, he had beeninterested in several female friends, but his parents did not approve. They hadcompelling reasons that were acceptable to the young man. Therefore, hecarefully considered their advice in choosing his future wife. The young man thenexpressed his satisfaction and joy to his parents. In following their advice,he realized that their choice aligned with his own. He told his parents thattheir love and attention for him were acts of giving and continued to give,from the time he was in his mother's womb until the time he was about to marry.Parents give everything to their children and never ask for anything in return.According to the young man, by following and heeding their advice and guidance,he was actually able to repay all the kindness he had received. Giving is an act ofgoing out from oneself in order to reach out other people or the world around. Therecan be tangible and non-tangible objects that we usually give. If somethingmeant as an attention and help, then the act of giving is an act of love. Theone who has love, always gives from oneself without consideration that he will becomea losser or lacking of things. Moreover, if he gives and continues to give, andnot expecting anything in return, that is a true and genuine love. This is thegift of love that God wants. Actually we do notneed to worry that as we continue to give, at one time we can not give anymorebecause we no longer have anything else. This concern is normal, because maybeour view depends only on the material wealth we have. Yet we still have spiritualor non-material wealth. Spiritual wealth is eternal, such as God's wisdom andgrace. When we are lacking even to the point of not having spiritual capacity,we will certainly ask for it from God. Giving as an act oflove indeed comes from God as the main giver. Saint Paul says in the firstreading that everything comes from God, therefore, He really does not needanything in return. Everything is grace. Likewise the Lord Jesus in today'sGospel asks us to love without expecting anything in return. This is the sameas helping a poor or needy person, who really does not have any possibility torepay something in return. Let's pray. In the name of the Father... Almighty Father, we entrust our lives into your hands, make us useful toour brothers and sisters. Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the HolySpirit ... In the name of the Father ...

Delivered by Valerie Sandra Hendrawinata from the Parish of Saint Paul in the Diocese of Bandung, Indonesia. Revelation 7: 2-4.9-14; Rs psalm 24: 1-2.3-4ab.5-6; 1 John 3: 1-3; Matthew 5: 1-12a.SEEING CHRIST AS HEIS Our meditation onthis first day of November is entitled: Seeing Christ As He Is. Today the wholeChurch celebrates the feast of all the saints. All saints are in heaven andcannot be anywhere else. They are glorious members of the Church, compared toother members who are still in the pilgrimage in the world, and who are experiencingpurification in purgatory. Those glorious Churchmembers have ever been in the world like us. Having lived a life of faithfulimitation of Jesus Christ, after their death, they are graced with eternal lifeas saints. What are they doing in eternity in heaven? There are many, but wecan mention just one following the inspiration of the today's readings, namelythey see Christ as He truly is. These saints are notangels. The angels are spirit beings and have no names (except for the three Archangels:Michael, Raphael and Gabriel). The saints have names and by the Church, theirnames are applied to the names of every follower of Christ as baptismal names.There are some saints established by the Church through the process ofbeatification and canonization, which means that they become perfect models forus. There are others who are not listed to follow that process but their heroicand saintly examples are very important to us. The road to holinessis open to every believer. The book of revelation in the first readingillustrates the vision of a large number of people from various corners of theworld dressed in white around the almighty throne of God. Holiness is indeed agift for us to realize. To make it happen, while still in the world we areobliged to actualize and live the pearls of happiness as proclaimed by the LordJesus in today's Gospel reading, namely Matthew chapter 5. We are called to beholy through the way of happiness in being poor before God, mourning, gentle,hungry and thirsty for truth, generous, pure of heart, bringing peace, beingpersecuted for the truth, and for the sake of Jesus Christ Himself. There is noshow of force or obligation to follow all this, but when someone has chosen tolive in this spirit, he or she has to live according to its demand. The life of happinesscan be experienced on this earth, yet its perfect realization is indeed inheaven, that is when we see Christ as He truly is. Let's pray. In the name of the Father... O Jesus Christ, enligten us on the path to perfection and may the glorioussaints pray for us to happily go through that path while always praising You inYour highest throne. Our Father who art in heaven ... In the name of the Father...

Delivered by Ariel from the Parish of Saint Albert the Great in the Archdiocese of Makassar, Indonesia. Romans 8: 31b-39; Rs psalm 109: 21-22.26-27.30-31; Luke 13: 31-35.NO FEAR IN THE LORD Our meditation today isentitled: No Fear in the Lord. A young man told his friends during a session offaith formation in the church, how he maintains his faith in the place where heworks. He is a devout and truly believer, but his friends who are not of thesame faith with him, do not show themselves as believers. Many like toblaspheme God. They do sinful acts such as spreading slander, acting rudely inwords and actions, cheating and unfairness to neighbours. This young man holdsthe principle that the God he believes in and who accompanies him at all times,gives him a sense of security, strength, and confidence. He has no fearwhatsoever, even though his surroundings are in favor of a lifestyle that iscontrary to God. For him, there is no fear of living and being with God. Fellowemployees in the office who are abusive, tell lies, spread gossip or insults,and cheat, are the friends he meets every day. He does not feel strange eventhreatened by them. He deals with every one in fairness and friendship. But there's not anyslightest chance for him to be influenced by them. He uses the power of God, sohe is able to maintain his faith and be able to also relate them in a balancedand normal way. This kind of experience is experienced also by many of us.These are all experiences in the real world. In the unreal world, such ascircumstances and reality beyond the reach of the human senses, often become adistraction. Ghost and other supernatural entities are believed to exist inevery culture. Many of us who relyon the power and the holy name of God that accompanying us, not at all afraidof demons, ghosts and supernatural forces. We truly believe that God isstronger than all those powers. Only in the name of the Most Holy God, we areprotected, strengthened and saved. In addition, there are also deadly threats,such as physical violence, war, disease, famine and natural disasters. Forthose who give priority to the power of God in the guidance of their entirelives, they are not at all afraid or shaken in their lives. God determines thefate of their lives. So the good news forus today is the one proclaimed by the two readings today. Saint Paul in hisletter to the Romans emphasizes that only the love of the Lord Jesus Christstrengthens, protects and saves us. There is no other power besides God thatcan separate and stop us. The same is true of the Gospel passage, which revealshow Jesus journeyed confidently into Jerusalem, where He was intended by God.The threat from Herod never scared him a single point or took a step back. Let's pray. In the name of the Father... O Lord, teach us to become people who are not afraid of anyone and anythingbut You. Hail Mary, full of grace ... In the name of the Father ...

Anthony presents Orthodoxy's sacramental view of creation and uses music as an example of how the royal priesthood, in Christ, fulfills its commission to pattern the cosmos according to that of Eden. My notes from the talk: I'm grateful to be back in Charlottesville, a place stitched into my story by Providence. Years ago, the Army Reserves sent me here after 9/11. I arrived with a job in Ohio on pause, a tidy life temporarily dismantled, and a heart that didn't care for the way soldiers are sometimes told to behave. So I went looking for an Orthodox church. I found a small mission and—more importantly—people who took me in as family. A patient priest and his matushka mentored me for six years. If anything in my priesthood bears fruit, it is because love first took root here. Bishops have a sense of humor; mine sent a Georgian convert with no Slavic roots to a Ukrainian parish in Rhode Island. It fit better than anyone could have planned. The Lord braided my history, discovering even ancestral ties in New England soil. Later, when a young man named Michael arrived—a reader who became a subdeacon, a deacon, and in time a priest—our trajectories crossed again. Father Robert trained me; by grace I was allowed to help train Father Michael; and now he serves here. This is how God sings His providence—melodies introduced, developed, and returned, until love's theme is recognizable to everyone listening. Why focus on music and beauty? Because they are not ornamental to the Gospel; they are its native tongue. Beauty tutors us in a sacramental world, not a "God of the gaps" world—where faith retreats to whatever science has not yet explained—but a world in which God is everywhere present and filling all things. Beauty is one of the surest ways to share the Gospel, not as salesmanship or propaganda, but as participation in what the world was made to be. The Church bears a particular charism for beauty; secular beauty can reflect it, but often only dimly—and sometimes in ways that distort the pattern it imitates. Beauty meets the whole human person: the senses and gut, the reasoning mind, and the deep heart—the nous—where awe, reverence, and peace bloom. Music is a wonderfully concrete instance of all of this: an example, a symbol, and—when offered rightly—a sacrament of sanctifying grace. Saint John begins his Gospel with the Logos—not a mere "word" but the Word whose meaning includes order, reason, and intelligibility: "All things were made through Him." Creation, then, bears the Logos' stamp in every fiber; Genesis repeats the refrain, "and God saw that it was good"—agathos, not just kalos. Agathos is goodness that is beautiful and beneficial, fitted to bless what it touches. Creation is not simply well-shaped; it is ordered toward communion, toward glory, toward gift. The Creed confesses the Father as Creator, the Son as the One through whom all things were made, and the Spirit as the Giver of Life. Creation is, at root, Trinitarian music—harmonies of love that invite participation. If you like, imagine the first chapter of Genesis sung. We might say: in the beginning, there was undifferentiated sound; the Spirit hovered; the Logos spoke tone, time, harmony, and melody into being. He set boundaries and appointed seasons so that music could unfold in an ordered way. Then He shaped us to be liturgists—stewards who can turn noise into praise, dissonance into resolution. The point of the story is not that God needed a soundtrack; it is that the world bears a pattern and purpose that we can either receive with thanksgiving or twist into something self-serving and cacophonous. We know what happened. In Adam and Eve's fall, thorns and thistles accompanied our work. Pain entered motherhood, and tyranny stalked marriage. We still command tools of culture—city-building, metallurgy, and yes, even music—but in Cain's line we see creativity conscripted to self-exaltation and violence. The Tower of Babel is the choir of human pride singing perfectly in tune against God. That is how sin turns technique into idolatry. Saint Paul describes the creation groaning in agony, longing for the revealing of the sons and daughters of God. This is not mere poetic flourish; it is metaphysical realism. The world aches for sanctified stewardship, for human beings restored to their priestly vocation. It longs for its music to be tuned again to the Logos. Christ enters precisely there—as the New Adam. Consider His Theophany. The Jordan "turns back," the waters are sanctified, because nothing impure remains in the presence of God. He does not merely touch creation; He heals it—beginning sacramentally with water, the primal element of both life and chaos. In our services for the Blessing of Water we sing, "Today the nature of the waters is sanctified… The Jordan is parted in two… How shall a servant lay his hand on the Master?" In prayer we cry, "Great are You, O Lord, and marvelous are Your works… Wherefore, O King and Lover of mankind, be present now by the descent of Your Holy Spirit and sanctify this water." This is not magic; it is synergy. We offer bread, wine, water, oil; we make the sign of the cross; we chant what the Church gives—and God perfects our offering with His grace. The more we give Him to work with, the more He transfigures. And then Holy Friday: the terrible beauty of the Passion. Sin's dissonance swells to cacophony as the Source of Beauty is slandered, pierced, and laid in the tomb. Icons and hymns do not hide the scandal—they name it. Joseph and Nicodemus take down a body that clothes itself with light as with a garment. Creation shudders; the sun withdraws; the veil is rent. Liturgically, we let the discomfort stand; sometimes the chant itself presses the dissonance upon us so that we feel the fracture. But the dissonance does not have the last word; it resolves—not trivially, not cheaply—into the transcendent harmony of Pascha. On the night of the Resurrection, the church is dark, then a single candle is lit, and the light spills outward. We sing, "Come receive the Light from the unwaning Light," and then the troparion bursts forth: "Christ is risen from the dead, trampling down death by death…" The structure of salvation is musical: tension, longing, silence, and a resolution that is fuller than our peace had been before the conflict. Here is the pastoral heart of it: Christ restores our seal. Saint Paul says we are "sealed with the promised Holy Spirit." Think of a prosphora seal pressed into unbaked dough; the impression remains when the loaf is finished. Sin cracked our seal; everything we touched bore our corruptions. In Christ, the seal is made whole. In Baptism and Chrismation, that seal is pressed upon us—not only on the brow but on the whole person—so that our very engaging with the world can take on the pattern of the Logos again. We do not stop struggling—Paul's "what I would, I do not"—but we now struggle inside a music that resolves. Even our failures can become passing tones on the way to love, if we repent and return to the key. This is why the Church's common life matters so much. When we gather for Vespers and Liturgy, we enact the world's purpose. The Psalms give us perfect words; the Church's hymnody gives us perfected poetry. Music, rightly offered, is Logos-bearing—it is rational in the deepest sense—and love is the same. Music requires skill and repetition; so does love. Music benefits from different voices and timbres; love, too, is perfected when distinct persons yield to a single charity. Music engages and transfigures dissonance; love confronts conflict and heals it. Music honors silence; love rests and listens. These are not analogies we force upon the faith—they are the way creation is built. The world says, "sing louder," but the will to power always collapses into noise. The Church says, "sing together." In the Eucharistic assembly, the royal priesthood becomes itself—men, women, and children listening to one another, matching pitch and phrase, trusting the hand that gives the downbeat, and pouring our assent into refrains of "Lord have mercy" and "Amen." The harmony is not uniformity; it is concord. It is not sentimentality; it is charity given and received. And when the Lord gives Himself to us for the healing of soul and body, the music goes beyond even harmony; it becomes communion. That is why Orthodox Christians are most themselves around the chalice: beauty, word, community, and sacrament converge in one act of thanksgiving. From there, the pastoral task is simply to help people live in tune. For families: cultivate attentiveness, guard against codependence and manipulation, and practice small, steady habits—prayer, fasting, reconciliation—that form the instincts of love the way scales form a musician's ear. For parishes: refuse the twin temptations of relativism and control; resist both the shrug and the iron fist. We are not curators of a museum nor managers of a brand; we are a choir rehearsing resurrection. Attend to the three "parts" of the mind you teach: let the senses be purified rather than inflamed; let the intellect be instructed rather than flattered; and let the nous—the heart—learn awe. Where awe grows, so does mercy. And for evangelization in our late modern world—filled with distraction, suspicion, and exhaustion—beauty may prove to be our most persuasive speech. Not the beauty of mere "aesthetics," but agathos beauty—the kind that is beautiful and beneficial, that heals what it touches. People come to church for a thousand different reasons: loneliness, curiosity, habit, crisis. What they really long for is God. If the nave is well-ordered, if the chant is gentle and strong, if the icons are windows rather than billboards, if the faces of the faithful are kind—then even before a word is preached, the Gospel will have begun its work. "We no longer knew whether we were in heaven or on earth," the emissaries of Rus' once said of their time at worship in Hagia Sophia. Beauty did not close their minds; it opened them to truth. None of this bypasses suffering. In fact, beauty makes us more available to it, because we stop numbing ourselves and begin to love. The Scriptures do not hide this: the Jordan is sanctified, but the Cross remains; the tomb is real; the fast is pangful. Yet in Christ, dissonance resolves. The Church's hymnody—from Psalm 103 at the week's beginning to the Nine Odes of Pascha—trains us to trust the cadence that only God can write. We learn to wait in Friday night's hush, to receive the flame from the unwaning Light, and to sing "Christ is risen" not as a slogan but as the soundtrack of our lives. So: let us steward what we've been given. Let us make the sign of the cross over our children at bedtime; let our conversations overflow with psalmody; let contended silence have a room in every home; let reconciliation be practiced before the sun goes down. Let every parish be a school for choir and charity, where no one tries to sing over his brother, and no one is left straining alone in the back row. If we will live this way, not perfectly but repentantly, then in us the world will begin to hear the old pattern again—the Logos' pattern—where goodness is beautiful and beauty does good. And perhaps, by God's mercy, the Lord will make of our small obedience something larger than we can imagine: a melody that threads through Charlottesville and Anderson, through Rhode Island and Kyiv, through every parish and prison and campus, until the whole creation—long groaning—finds its voice. Let God arise. Let His enemies be scattered. Christ is risen, trampling down death by death, and upon those in the tombs bestowing life.

Today's Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Father Raymond Bueno joins Terry to discuss Holy Mass Gospel - Luke 12:13-21 - Someone 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?" Then He said to the crowd, "Take care to guard against all greed, for though one may be rich, one's life does not consist of possessions." Then He told them a parable. "There was a rich man whose land produced a bountiful harvest. He asked himself, 'What shall I do, for I do not have space to store my harvest?' And he said, 'This is what I shall do: I shall tear down my barns and build larger ones. There I shall store all my grain and other goods and I shall say to myself, "Now as for you, you have so many good things stored up for many years, rest, eat, drink, be merry!"' But God said to him, 'You fool, this night your life will be demanded of you; and the things you have prepared, to whom will they belong?' Thus will it be for the one who stores up treasure for himself but is not rich in what matters to God." Memorial of Saint Paul of the Cross, Priest Saint Paul, pray for us!
Hope for Right Now Podcast – Grace and Glory: Philippians 1 Lisa and Laura are back and launching a brand-new four-week podcast series—Grace and Glory, based on Saint Paul's letter to the Philippians. Often called The Epistle of Joy, Saint Paul's letter overflows with rejoicing, gratitude, and encouragement—amazing, when you consider that Paul wrote it from a prison cell. As women seeking joy but who often feel confined by our circumstances, what was Saint Paul's secret? How do we rejoice in our suffering? How do we remain grateful when our situation is the opposite of what we were hoping for? In this first episode of Grace and Glory, Lisa and Laura unpack Saint Paul's message and reveal how the same joy he wrote about can be yours—no matter what life throws your way. Open your Heart to our key Scripture. Philippians 1 Open your Bible to other Scriptures referenced in this episode. Romans 3:23: Since all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Luke 19:10: For the Son of man came to seek and to save the lost. Hebrews 12:14: Strive for peace with all men, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord. Acts 28:20: For this reason therefore I have asked to see you and speak with you, since it is because of the hope of Israel that I am bound with this chain. Colossians 4:3–4: And pray for us also, that God may open to us a door for the word, to declare the mystery of Christ, on account of which I am in prison, that I may make it clear, as I ought to speak. Colossians 4:18: Remember my chains. Ephesians 6:20: I am an ambassador in chains. 1 Peter 5:10–11: And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, establish, and strengthen you. To him be the dominion for ever and ever. Amen. Luke 7:47: Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much; but he who is forgiven a little, loves a little.

2025-10-19 Homélie - Eglise Saint Paul (Bordeaux) by Radio Maria France
Guitarist Joel Shapira plays in multiple musical settings. But he seems more inclined than most to record solo. Joel's new solo project is called Unscripted. He showcases music from the CD at two shows about a week out. On Saturday October 25 at 7pm, he leads a trio into the High Hat in Saint Paul, and on Saturday November 1, he plays 4:30 till 6, solo at Berlin in Minneapolis. In a conversation with Phil Nusbaum, Joel first addressed why he included his composition Tune for Towner on the CD.
Read OnlineThe Lord Jesus appointed seventy-two disciples whom he sent ahead of him in pairs to every town and place he intended to visit. He said to them, “The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few; so ask the master of the harvest to send out laborers for his harvest.” Luke 10:1–2Saint Luke, whom we honor today, was a true evangelist. As an evangelist, he followed the inspiration from our Lord and was used to bring God's saving message to the ends of the earth. And there is little doubt that his ministry will continue to have a transforming effect on the lives of many until the end of the world. Tradition states that Saint Luke became a martyr, being hanged on an olive tree. He is identified in the New Testament as a physician and as a disciple of Saint Paul. Both the Gospel of Luke and the Acts of the Apostles are attributed to him.Saint Luke is often spoken of as an evangelist to the gentiles. His Gospel was written in such a way that it didn't presume a full understanding of the Jewish faith and customs. Therefore, it is believed to have been primarily written for those who are not of Jewish origin. Thus, the life and mission of Saint Luke must remind us that the Gospel needs to be shared with all people, especially with those who do not have a deep and sustaining relationship with God.In today's Gospel from Saint Luke, we read that Jesus sent seventy-two disciples “to every town and place he intended to visit.” Only Luke mentions the larger scale sending of seventy-two disciples. The other Gospels only mention the sending of the Twelve. Though many of these seventy-two disciples would have gone to Jewish territory, some would have unquestionably gone to non-Jewish territory. The mission of these seventy-two was to prepare everyone they encountered for the preaching of Jesus and for the establishment of the Kingdom of God.As we honor Saint Luke today and read this passage from his Gospel, we are reminded that we are all sent by our Lord. We are sent to those who share our faith, such as family, friends and fellow parishioners. We are sent to love them and do all we can to help deepen their faith and love of God. But we are also called to share the Gospel with those who do not yet know Jesus as their Savior. There are so many people we encounter every day who have never truly met our Lord. Are there people in your life that God is calling you to reach out to? Who do you know that God may be calling you to share the Gospel with? Reflect, today, upon the fact that the Gospel is meant for everyone. Speak to our Lord and tell Him that you are ready and willing to be used by Him to bring His saving message to others. As you do so, wait on the Lord, listen to His inspiration, and respond when He calls. If someone comes to mind whom you sense God is calling you to evangelize, begin to pray for that person. Pray for them every day and be attentive to any inspiration God gives you to share His love and saving message with them. Do not be afraid to be an evangelist like Saint Luke. Doing so might make an eternal difference in someone's life. My saving Lord, You sent Your disciples on a mission to share Your saving message with all. Today I especially thank You for the life and ministry of Saint Luke. Please use me, dear Lord, to imitate his wonderful example and to share Your glorious life with others. Please lead me and inspire me to especially reach out to those whom You have put into my life. Jesus, I trust in You.

En 1858, un jeune mousse français de 14 ans, Narcisse Pelletier, embarque à bord du Saint-Paul, un navire parti de Marseille vers l'Extrême-Orient. L'expédition transporte des marchandises et des émigrants italiens, mais au large de la Papouasie, le voyage tourne au drame. Le navire s'échoue sur les récifs de la côte nord-est de l'Australie, dans une zone aujourd'hui connue sous le nom de cap York, l'une des régions les plus isolées du continent.Les survivants, dont Narcisse, tentent d'atteindre la terre ferme à bord d'une chaloupe. Après plusieurs jours d'errance, épuisés et affamés, ils trouvent un point d'eau. Le capitaine, parti chercher de l'aide avec quelques hommes, ordonne au jeune garçon de monter la garde… mais ne revient jamais. Seul, abandonné sur une plage australienne, Narcisse Pelletier est convaincu qu'il va mourir.C'est alors qu'un groupe d'Aborigènes Uutaalnganu, peuple du nord du Queensland, le découvre. Loin de l'hostilité que craignait le jeune Français, ils le recueillent, le nourrissent et finissent par l'adopter. Ils le baptisent Amglo, et il devient, au fil des années, l'un des leurs.Narcisse apprend à chasser, à pêcher, à fabriquer des outils en pierre et en bois. Il se couvre de peinture rituelle, participe aux cérémonies, parle la langue locale, et épouse les coutumes du clan. Pendant dix-sept ans, il vit totalement intégré à cette communauté, oubliant jusqu'à ses origines européennes. Il n'est plus un marin perdu : il est un homme du bush.Mais en 1875, son destin bascule une seconde fois. Un navire britannique, le John Bell, longe la côte. Les marins remarquent un homme nu, à la peau claire, vivant parmi les autochtones. Narcisse est “retrouvé” et conduit à Sydney. Là, les autorités françaises apprennent son identité : le garçon disparu dix-sept ans plus tôt a survécu. Pourtant, le retour à la “civilisation” est un choc terrible. Il ne parle presque plus français, fuit la foule et le bruit des villes.Revenu à son port natal de Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie, Narcisse Pelletier mène une existence discrète, hanté par le souvenir de son autre famille. Jusqu'à sa mort, en 1894, il restera tiraillé entre deux mondes — celui qu'il avait quitté et celui qu'il avait aimé. Son histoire, à mi-chemin entre le naufrage et la renaissance, demeure l'un des récits les plus émouvants de l'aventure humaine. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Justin Timberlake BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Timberlake's health struggles continue to dominate headlines as the pop superstar battles multiple setbacks during his Forget Tomorrow World Tour. TBS News reports the singer cancelled his December second show in Oklahoma City due to a back injury sustained in New Orleans, with doctors ordering additional rest. In his Instagram Stories, Timberlake apologized to fans, writing that he hates cancelling shows but must follow medical advice.This latest cancellation follows a pattern of health issues plaguing the forty-four year old performer. Just weeks ago on October twenty-second, he announced rescheduling several shows from late October through early November after being diagnosed with bronchitis and laryngitis. He had also postponed an October eighth show due to an undisclosed injury. The accumulated cancellations have forced the rescheduling of major stops including Chicago, Detroit, Milwaukee, Grand Rapids, and Saint Paul to February twenty twenty-five.In a surprising revelation, multiple outlets including Variety and AOL report that Timberlake disclosed a Lyme disease diagnosis coinciding with his tour's conclusion. Through Instagram Stories, the singer opened up about battling nerve pain, debilitating fatigue, and physical sickness throughout the tour. He wrote candidly about contemplating stopping the tour entirely but ultimately deciding that his love of performing outweighed the physical challenges. Timberlake emphasized wanting to be more transparent about his struggles and help others experiencing the disease.On a more positive note, the singer celebrated his thirteenth wedding anniversary with wife Jessica Biel this week. Both posted sweet tributes on social media, with Timberlake sharing photos and writing that their wedding seemed like just yesterday. The couple, who married in October twenty twelve in Italy, share two sons together.Looking ahead, Timberlake is confirmed to headline Lollapalooza Paris on July twentieth twenty twenty-five at the Paris Longchamp racecourse, though questions remain about whether his ongoing health issues will impact future tour dates. The Forget Tomorrow World Tour, which began in April twenty twenty-four in Vancouver, is currently scheduled to conclude in Paris on July twentieth.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
Paul's 1st Epistle to the Thessalonians was the earliest compositions of the New Testament, written around 51 A.D., nearly 20 years before Mark's gospel was composed. The letter was written at the beginning of what is known as Paul's second missionary journey, in which he conveys his understanding of his mission.What does it mean to be a slave to Christ?When the Risen Christ has become the center of your life, how is that displayed in your ordinary experience?

Friends, in our second reading this Sunday, Paul writes to Timothy, “Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, a descendant of David: such is my gospel.” The Gospel is not the ethical teachings of Jesus or the doctrinal teachings of Saint Paul; the Gospel is Jesus himself. And Christianity is not a noble spiritual path or a set of ideas; it's a relationship to Jesus. All those other things are great and follow from him—but it's about him!
