Friends, this year, the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross falls on a Sunday, so we have the great privilege of reflecting a bit more deeply on this marvelous and, frankly, disconcerting and odd feast. The Roman cross was a horrific, terrifying symbol of tyrannical power. And yet the first Christians emerge exalting the cross of Jesus. They don't hide it or pretend he died some other way; on the contrary, Saint Paul says, “I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ, and him crucified.” How do we begin to explain this?

The Selby Avenue Fest includes great performances and master classes by artists with something to say. The complete schedule is at Selby Ave jazz fest dot com. Ernest Bisong is the artistic director of Walker West Academy, the presenting sponsor the Selby Avenue Jazz Fest. When Ernest met with Phil Nusbaum, the two spoke of jazz in general, some of the artists at the event, and the event's educational opportunities.

Christian maturity is more than externals—it's a life that endures trials and actually changes you. John Stevenson lays out a practical roadmap for resilient discipleship and the one habit most people skip. Host Kevin Kapchinski talks with John Stevenson, Director of Campus Ministry at St. Mary's Catholic Center (College Station), about forming disciples who last beyond college. Drawing on Corps of Cadets grit and years with Saint Paul's Outreach, John explains why relational evangelization—not programs—shapes durable faith. He names the essentials: identity as a beloved son or daughter, endurance through trials, a daily prayer life, honest confession, and living in community and mission. They challenge consumer mindsets about the Mass (covenant over preferences) and press into dependence on the Holy Spirit for authentic witness. If you're a student, young professional, or parent, this gives you a clear path forward. Follow the show, rate & review in your podcast app, and share it.

Some scripture passages need a closer look in order to properly understand them. Saint Paul talks about slavery and Jesus, talks about hating people. What did they mean and how does this apply to our lives today? What does this have to do with Mass? Listen to my homily for answers on these questions and for more information.

Delivered by Randy from the Parish of Christ the King in the Archdiocese of Makassar, Indonesia. 1 Thessalonians 4: 13-17a; Rs psalm 96: 1.3.4-5.11-12.13; Luke 4: 16-30.DYING WITH AND IN CHRIST The title for our meditation today is: Dying With and InChrist. As Christians, we believe that our lives begin, are lived, and end inChrist. When we are called to die together and in Jesus Christ, it means thatwe no longer view death as a dreadful end, but rather as the entrance toeternal life.  Christ's death on the cross was not a failure, but atotal and perfect expression of God's love for man. Thus, to die in Christmeans to give our lives completely into His hands, convinced that His love isgreater than death. This meaning is very relevant to human life today. Themodern world often avoids talking about death, as if death is the greatestenemy to be kept as far away as possible. However, the Christian faith viewsdeath in Christ as a victory. Saint Paul affirms: "To me life is Christand death is gain" (Philippians 1:21). That is, as long as our lives aredirected to Christ, then death is not darkness, but the path to fullness ofunion with God. Death in Christ also teaches us to live a life ofmeaning and responsibility. If we realize that life is temporary, we will bemore careful to fill it with love, truth, and devotion. We are no longer tiedto temporal things that are temporary, but seek the eternal. Thus, theawareness of death in Christ frees us from vain fear and gives us the courageto live in the light of God's love. The task of Christians is to proclaim the truth ofdeath in Christ as a fundamental hope. The world is hungry for hope, especiallywhen faced with suffering, sickness, and death. Through the testimony of faith,we are called to reassure others that death is not the end, but the beginningof a new life with God. This is proclaimed not only through words, butespecially through the way we live: a life full of peace, patience, and love,even in the midst of difficulties. This message of hope must also be a strength inservices. Christians are called to be present for those who are experiencingsuffering and loss. The Thessalonian Christians accepted Saint Paul'sexhortation to comfort the grief of the death of a loved one, by welcoming eachperson's day of death with joy and hope. Let us pray. In the name of the Father ... O God, fill uswith a strong faith of the hope of eternal life with You in glory and happinessthat will never end. Hail Mary full of grace... In the name of the Father ...

Since 1973, the Catholic Church in the United States has observed October as “Respect Life Month.” This year, Bishop Michael F. Burbidge of Arlington, chairman of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops' (USCCB) Committee on Pro-Life Activities invites Catholics to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Respect Life Month by embracing “radical solidarity” with women facing difficult or challenging pregnancies. Read Bishop Burbidge's full statement, “Living Radical Solidarity.” Resources for Respect Life Month are available at https://www.respectlife.org/respect-life-month. More than one hundred bishops from around the world recently attended the Vatican's school for new bishops. Bishop Jeffrey Fleming of Great Falls, Montana, and Bishop Michael Izen, Auxiliary Bishop of Saint Paul and Minneapolis, shared their experiences with Catholic Current.

If I take the wings of the dawn, if I settle at the farthest limits of the sea, Even there your hand shall guide me, and your right hand hold me fast. You have searched me and you know me, Lord.A reading from the holy Gospel according to Matthew (Mt 23:27-32, today's readings).Jesus said, "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites. You are like whitewashed tombs, which appear beautiful on the outside, but inside are full of dead men's bones and every kind of filth. Even so, on the outside you appear righteous, but inside you are filled with hypocrisy and evildoing."Jesus condemns the scribes and Pharisees for their hypocrisy; they appear beautiful on the outside and in adorning the memorials of the righteous, whom their ancestors killed. Yet, on the inside they are filled with "dead men's bones and every kind of filth" as they mask the inner decay of immorality and sin. As Saint Paul shares the Gospel in the first reading, he conveys the spirit of love that the Father continuously pours out on us, encouraging and insisting that those who follow Christ "walk in a manner worthy of the God who calls you into his Kingdom of glory."God, as Saint Paul gives thanks unceasingly in sharing and receiving your word—not the word of men but the word of God—I ask for the grace to do the same. The Gospel acclamation describes the divine outcome of nurturing and keeping the word immanent, of persisting in prayer as Saint Monica did: "Whoever keeps the word of Christ, the love of God is truly perfected in him." The words of Christ to the Pharisees—"inside you are filled with hypocrisy and evildoing"—penetrate deep within to help me recognize when I lose sight of the word and turn away from you. Yet, Lord, in your goodness, even there you attend to me, and the psalmist's prayer is mine as I say: "Even there your hand shall guide me, and your right hand hold me fast." Saint Monica, pray for us!Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

O LORD, you have probed me and you know me; you know when I sit and when I stand; you understand my thoughts from afar. My journeys and my rest you scrutinize, with all my ways you are familiar. You have searched me and you know me, Lord.A reading from the holy Gospel according to Matthew (Mt 23:23-26, today's readings).“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites. You cleanse the outside of cup and dish, but inside they are full of plunder and self-indulgence. Blind Pharisee, cleanse first the inside of the cup, so that the outside also may be clean.”Jesus addresses the scribes and Pharisees for taking advantage of their position to distort Mosaic law for self-serving purposes. In doing this, they also bring others into this dysfunction by setting an example. Jesus affirms this by calling them guides, but they are blind guides, neglecting more meaningful aspects of the law such as "judgment and mercy and fidelity." By contrast, in the first reading, Saint Paul describes the example the apostles set as they shared the Gospel with the people of Philippi: "Rather, we were gentle among you, as a nursing mother cares for her children. With such affection for you, we were determined to share with you not only the Gospel of God, but our very selves as well, so dearly beloved had you become to us." How does Christ call us to share "our very selves" in his mission of mercy?God, you call me continuously to love as you love and to be merciful as you are merciful. Jesus commands the Pharisees to be attentive to the weightier things of the law: judgment and fidelity and mercy. You alone, Lord, are perfectly just and merciful. Give me the grace to work on this today as I strive to remain faithful to your will. The opportunity may not come again, or I may not recognize it at another time. Make clear to me today how you work with me in the way of interior sanctification, in the way of cleansing the inside of the cup so that the outside may also be clean.Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Deux fois par jour, la marée dévoile les rives de la Tamise, permettant à des dizaines de Londoniens de venir ratisser les plages à la recherche de vestiges archéologiques. Ces trouvailles, fortement régulées par la ville, permettent de reconstruire, collaborativement, l'histoire de la capitale britannique.   Les cloches de la cathédrale Saint-Paul de Londres retentissent au loin. Les touristes font la queue devant la Tate Modern, musée situé sur la rive opposée. La marée atteindra son point le plus bas dans une demi-heure. Alors, Carolina se fraie un chemin sur la plage de galets de Cannon Street, dotée de gants en latex et de bottes imperméables. « Ici, c'est un endroit très spécial, s'enthousiasme-t-elle, on peut trouver des restes très anciens, jusqu'à l'époque romaine, mais on n'a pas le droit de creuser. »   Ce matin-là, ils sont une poignée armés, comme elle, d'un petit seau en plastique, à ratisser du regard la rive de Tamise. Leur passion : le « mudlarking », un mot intraduisible qui décrit les fouilles archéologiques entreprises par ces Londoniens amateurs sur les bords de leur fleuve. En quelques minutes, Carolina a déjà ramassé quelques trésors : « Voyez, un fragment de céramique bleue ici, sûrement un vase. Ça, c'est un bout d'os, du temps où les bouchers jetaient leurs carcasses dans la Tamise... Et là, un morceau de pipe, mais je ne vais pas le prendre. » Il faut dire que ces longs tubes d'argile, parfois accompagnés d'une chambre à tabac entière, sont trop communs pour représenter un quelconque intérêt pour les mudlarkers expérimentés.   Le frisson de la découverte  Londonienne d'adoption depuis 20 ans, Carolina s'intéresse particulièrement aux fossiles. Sur son téléphone, elle fait défiler les photos d'oursins fossilisés trouvés près de chez elle, au sud-est de la capitale. À deux pas, une autre chercheuse, Emma, s'émerveille d'un éclat de céramique romaine... Après tout, la « City » de Londres a été construite sur les frontières de Londinium, fondée au premier siècle. Emma s'empresse de prendre une photo pour la partager sur son compte Instagram : « Je viens ici parce qu'on trouve surtout des vestiges de l'époque Tudor. J'adore trouver des pièces qui datent du règne de Henri VIII ou d'Elizabeth Ire... Je frissonne quand je pense que je suis la première personne à la toucher depuis des siècles. »   Carolina connaît bien cette excitation : « On trouve de tout, c'est vraiment une manière de reconstruire l'histoire de Londres. » Et justement, parce qu'on trouve de tout et de toutes les époques, il a fallu réguler la pratique. « Il faut un permis pour mudlarker », explique Carolina, pour qui l'attente a duré plusieurs mois. Seuls 4 000 Londoniens sont accrédités en même temps, et la liste d'attente dépasse les 10 000 noms... Les agents de la Port of London Authority (PLA) contrôlent de temps en temps. « Il n'y a pas de formation, mais on doit s'engager à respecter les différentes zones, et à déclarer ce qu'on trouve si l'objet date d'il y a plus de 300 ans », poursuit Carolina. Si la trouvaille présente un intérêt archéologique, elle se retrouve sur le bureau de Stuart Wyatt, officier des trouvailles auprès du Programme d'antiquités mobile (PAS). Le chercheur l'examine, tente de reconstituer l'histoire de l'artéfact puis le restitue au mudlarker ou recommande la transmission aux institutions culturelles... Le processus prend environ cinq mois.   Une exposition pour mettre en valeur ces trésors du fleuve... et leur face sombre  Cette année, pour la première fois, un musée londonien a prêté ses étagères aux plus belles trouvailles. En quelques mois, plusieurs milliers de curieux ont franchi les portes de Secrets of the Thames, l'exposition du Museum of London Docklands.   « Nous avons des objets qui reflètent l'histoire portuaire de Londres, comme ce cadran solaire dont les deux parties ont été trouvées à huit ans d'intervalle, détaille James Stewart, guide intarissable sur l'exposition. Beaucoup de bijoux, quelques couteaux de l'époque Tudor... La vase a permis de conserver le bois et le cuir du manche. » Dans une armoire, un œil de verre des années 1920, frappant de réalisme ; dans une autre, les médailles remportées par le tennisman Peter Fleming à Wimbledon et jetées dans la Tamise par un cambrioleur...   Le guide s'arrête devant une vitrine consacrée à l'histoire coloniale de la capitale britannique, et pointe du doigt le visage d'un homme africain sculpté dans une pipe : « Dans l'Empire, on commercialisait du tabac, du sucre, dont la production dépendait de l'esclavage. Des objets comme cette pipe sont typiques des représentations du XVIIIe siècle, déshumanisantes, comme pour justifier l'esclavage. » La pipe, qui reprend les stéréotypes de l'époque, a été trouvée aux côtés de cauris, un coquillage utilisé comme monnaie en Afrique de l'Ouest, ramené en larges quantités par les marchands coloniaux.   Les premiers mudlarkers, à l'aube du XIXe siècle, peignaient les rives de la Tamise à la recherche de morceaux de charbon, de cordes, de métaux : « Des choses qu'ils pouvaient revendre pour survivre dans le Londres de l'époque victorienne », bien loin de ces nouveaux mudlarkers en quête d'un frisson de découvertes... Mais la survie de la pratique a permis de compléter le tableau déjà très riche de l'histoire de la capitale, selon James Stewart : « Tellement de gens mudlarkent aujourd'hui. Les objets qu'ils trouvent et l'endroit où ils les trouvent permettent de comprendre à quoi ressemblait la vie de nos ancêtres, plus encore qu'un livre ou qu'un tableau puisqu'il s'agit d'objets du quotidien. »   Même s'il ne représente qu'une goutte d'eau (3%) des découvertes archéologiques nationales, le mudlarking fournit chaque année 2 000 trésors potentiels aux institutions culturelles.   À lire aussiRoyaume-Uni: la préservation du mur d'Hadrien

In this episode of the Mutuality Matters podcast from CBE International, hosts Mimi and Charel speak with Dr. Jeannine Brown who discusses the pressing need to interpret the Biblical text of 1 Peter 3:1–7 within its first-century Greco-Roman context. Dr. Brown emphasizes the importance of understanding the cultural and historical background behind the passages on submission, particularly 1 Peter 3:1–7. She explores how Peter's household codes provide agency to often marginalized groups like wives and slaves, contrary to the hierarchical norms of the time. The conversation underscores the relevance today of recognizing and respecting context while interpreting Biblical texts—an essential factor for both scholars and modern readers.    00:00 Introduction to Mutuality Matters  00:02 Exploring the Context of Submission in 1 Peter  00:49 Welcome and Introductions  01:33 Reading and Analyzing 1 Peter 3:1-7  02:57 Cultural Background and Interpretation  03:37 Household Codes in the Greco-Roman World  07:24 Missional Moments and Divided Households  08:20 Challenges for Christian Wives in the First Century  10:03 Slavery and Moral Agency in 1 Peter  11:28 Understanding Peter's Use of Household Codes  16:50 Modern Interpretations and Misconceptions  27:46 The Role of Headings in Biblical Interpretation  30:15 Instructions for Husbands in 1 Peter 3:7  36:30 Exploring Social and Physical Vulnerability  37:19 Interpreting 'Weaker Vessel' in Context  38:02 Challenging Traditional Views on Gender Roles  40:18 Co-Heirs and Inheritance in Early Christianity  41:50 Family Metaphors in 1 Peter  43:37 Egalitarian Impulses in the New Testament  45:28 Household Codes and Their Implications  50:08 Suffering for Good and Loyalty to Jesus  52:47 Translation Challenges and Responsibilities  58:01 Applying 1 Peter in Modern Contexts  01:04:03 Conclusion and Further Resources    Guest Bio: Dr. Jeannine Brown   Jeannine Brown is professor of New Testament at Bethel Seminary and Program Director of Bethel Seminary's Online programs.

Jeannine thoroughly enjoys teaching in churches and ministries on the topics of Bible interpretation and the New Testament. She is married to Tim Brown, singer-songwriter, and has two adult daughters.  Story Notes  Today's podcast focused on 1 Pet 3:1–7. In the NIV it reads:  "Wives, in the same way submit yourselves to your own husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives, when they see the purity and reverence of your lives. Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight. For this is the way the holy women of the past who put their hope in God used to adorn themselves. They submitted themselves to their own husbands, like Sarah, who obeyed Abraham and called him her lord. You are her daughters if you do what is right and do not give way to fear. Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers."   Exploring the cultural background, Jeannine suggests that Peter is calling Christians to display behaviors that reflect Christ even as male dominance was a given. Jeannine explained that in the first century, Roman interest in well-organized households should mirror a well-organized Rome. Roman citizens were to live harmoniously within a well-organized Roman household. Where the passage makes a surprising move is in the call for husbands to have empathy for their wives with a consequence: that God will hear their prayers. Further Christian wives should view themselves beyond the cultural standard of female beauty. As the passage states: it's not the adorning of women's outer selves but their inner lives of faith in God. Doing right, and with faith that does not give into fear given God is ultimately in control. This passage is countercultural in its emphasis on Christian faith and the development of a peaceful inner life both of which acknowledge God's supremacy versus that of emperor's.     This passage calls both husbands and wives to do what is right: to be brave, to have faith in God who rules over all of Rome's emperors, verse 7, to live within a culture with very differing values that offend Christian moral life. In this passage there is a tension in negotiating life lived in a culture at odds with Christian values, supremely concerning the divinity Jesus, or that of an emperor. While Jesus died on a Roman cross, even so, the passage evokes faith and courage in Christian households. The passage is helpful to missionaries in similar circumstances. How to live with courage and faith, elevating the gospel with behavior more often than words in a culture that exploited slaves and women.     Turning to 1 Peter 3:7 that reads:  "Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers."     The Petrine texts lean into sibling language, especially that of children, which overall is very egalitarian in the cultural context of first century. Further, the language of “father” was not very much present in NT as it was in 1st century non-Christian texts. God's children in Christ were to face each other in humility and this very egalitarian impulse in relating to one another. God is father, but in Christ we're all siblings. Women and men are co-heirs is throughout NT. Leadership structure are notes but not ones in the NT.     The whole Petrine text is a significant challenge to the top-down rule from emperor as God down throughout the household structure which was central. Given what Peter is doing with family metaphors—of believers as children / siblings who are to love earnestly as family love each other, and as the elders are a group too much have wisdom but must lead by example. These impulses, leader on top, and wife below: this does simplify decisions, but this is not the texture of Peter. As he thinks of his context, and the household code, it is not a prescription but a triage—a pathway for healing top-down leadership. It's what Christians do in an emergency. Emergency advice to the Christian community so it can survive. It's about survival for the most vulnerable. The thrust of text is a call to attentiveness to the most vulnerable. In light of Tom Holland's book—Dominion: How the Christian Revolution Remade the World—in brutal detail reveals the cruelty of Rome. In thinking of our next, the advice is that even if you suffer for doing good, you are blessed. And take comfort in that truth and knowledge that even those who slanders you, remain loyal to Christ, if you suffer as Jesus did, you will also share in his glory.  In fascinating detail, Jeannine describes the history of Bible translation and the canonical review that follows. For the NIV team, on which she contributes, their voting policy requires a 75% majority in approving translation choices. Thus, the team must make a compelling case to change something, so for 1 Peter, and the NT generally, it's always wise to examine and read many translations to see differences.     In considering the backdrop in which the text arises, submission is not a new requirement. What is new for this culture is to ask that all behavior must be Christ-like. While believers are clearly frightened by opposition to Christian faith, the text calls them to act in ways that others will recognize their soul-allegiance to Christ. Win others over to Christ not out of fear but confident behavior that imitates Christ's live. Jeannine recommends entering the text with a disciplined imagination that brings implications of texts to life then and now. Idolatry is key issue underlining the concerns in this text which encourages faith and living life not with words but by example.   Jeannine points listeners to the following resources:  Nijay Gupta's book, Tell Her Story: How Women Led, Taught and Ministered in the Early Church.   Listen to Jeannine Brown's Hayward Lectures at Acadia Divinity College  Jeannie will resume this conversation in subsequent episodes of Women and Worlds: Exploring the Difficult Passages.    Disclaimer  The opinions expressed in CBE's Mutuality Matters' podcast are those of its hosts or guests and do not purport to reflect the opinions or views of CBE International or its members or chapters worldwide.

We're back in Saint Paul for a ride on the notorious Summit Avenue. Chris Smith is my guide as we try to answer the dumbest question plaguing street reconstruction projects across the Twin Cities: Can bike and tree coexist? It turns out they definitely can. We talk about the potential for a lawsuit to stop a new bike trail; explain that the trees aren't threatened by the bike trail (the real threat is the deep digging to replace infrastructure); why the street and the underground infrastructure (sewer and other utilities) need to be fully reconstructed; why Summit is a vital bike connection for both Saint Paul and Minneapolis; and what inspired Chris to get political about transportation and making streets safer for people on bikes and pedestrians -- just trying to get around the city without a car.Watch: https://youtube.com/wedgeliveJoin the conversation: https://bsky.app/profile/wedge.liveSupport the show: https://patreon.com/wedgeliveWedge LIVE theme song by Anthony Kasper x LaFontsee

join us for this soul-stirring episode as we explore Acts 14:21-28, where Saint Paul and Barnabas return across 105 miles to Lystra, Iconium, and Antioch. With a heart filled with faith, we reflect on their mission to strengthen new disciples amidst persecution, teaching that only through much tribulation can we enter God's Kingdom (Psalm 34:19). Through prayer and fasting, they ordain elders, entrusting them to the Lord, and share how God opened the door of faith to the Gentiles. Be encouraged to persevere, embracing the pure joy of suffering for Christ's sake (2 Timothy 3:12), and trust the Holy Spirit's guidance. Rejoice in the growth of the one holy, apostolic, and Catholic Church, and let this message inspire your walk with Jesus. Tune in, subscribe, and share the good news!
