Simon of Cyrene was just passing by when Roman soldiers compelled him to carry Jesus' cross, forcing him to take a massive detour. How should we respond when things do not go as we expect?
Simon of Cyrene - Bystander to Cross-Bearer | The Cross Sermon Series | Week 3 | Ps Chris Chipeio by Every Nation Dorado
This week Pastor Neli lets Simon of Cyrene's story remind us that God can use even the briefest moments of obedience to create ripples of transformation. Just as Simon, an unexpected bystander, carried the cross for Jesus and became part of a greater story, so too can the everyday steps of faith and compassion you take be used by God to impact lives. Whether your role seems small or goes unnoticed, know that God is still writing your story, weaving it into His grand design. Trust Him to author your path, and step boldly into the purpose He has for you. 26 And as they led him away, they seized one Simon of Cyrene, who was coming in from the country, and laid on him the cross, to carry it behind Jesus. - Luke 23:26 (ESV)

Today on Women of Grace, Johnnette talks about her morning rosary - being drawn to St SImon of Cyrene. We hear from a listener who is struggling due to infertility, along with a host of listeners who step in to encourage and help this woman, and embody the work of St Simon of Cyrene. Plus, a caller who tells of how he "died in 1969".

“And as they led him away, they seized one Simon of Cyrene, who was coming in from the country, and laid on him the cross, to carry it behind Jesus.” Luke 23:26. This week I explore the reality of watching another struggle under the weight of their cross. Perhaps, we are called to be "Simon" in the lives of those we love. Could Simon of Cyrene have known the pivotal part that he would play in the story of salvation? Relevant Radio:I'm now chatting monthly with John Morales on the Morning Air show on Relevant Radio!

It is Holy Week and for my christian brothers and sisters this week marks the culmination of our faith, the days in which Jesus Christ died and rose again. One year ago we released a pair of PICK UP THE SIX episodes, one with Catholic Priest (and Air Force chaplain) James Hamel, and the other with my friends Rob Renzi and Dom Raso, a former Navy SEAL. Our conversations centered around a man thrust into the story as Christ took his final steps. That man's name was Simon, and he in that moment had to pick up the six and help Jesus carry the weight of that cross. Here are both of those conversations. God bless, happy Holy Week, and happy Easter.

Long before His arrest, Jesus told His disciples that if they wanted to follow Him, they would have to deny themselves, take up their cross, and follow Him. It is doubtful the disciples fully understood what Jesus meant. Even two thousand years after His crucifixion, understanding what it means to bear Jesus' cross can be difficult. Join us for a series exploring the Cross Walk that leads to the Kingdom.

John 19: 28-42 // Andrew JonesJesus lived a completely human life, but not just any human life. He lived a poor and oppressed life. He suffered rejection, ridicule and hatred. His best friends abandoned him. He was lied about, beaten and spat on until his death. He died a human death, but not just any human death. He died the most heinous and evil deaths any human could ever die. Jesus died that death for you. He did not have to die to prove he is God, but he does prove that. He did not have to die for the beauty, splendor and glory of a new creation, but he did that too. What Jesus could not have without dying, was you. Our sin, our rebellion, could only be solved by him. Jesus wants you, and me, to know that no matter how bad things get, no matter how much loss, grief and pain we can endure, Jesus can take the worst of it, and bring life out of it. From the foundation of the world, Jesus knew the cost of our sins, and he chose to pay it anyway.Sermon Notes: https://www.bible.com/events/49049017 Prayer Requests: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2509/responses/new23.04.02
JESUS IS HELPED BY SIMON OF CYRENE – Jesus Walking in the Way of the Cross (VIDEO) LYRICS TO MUSIC: Brother Simon of Cyrene You know not what you mean You know not what you mean Chosen from the ranks unknown Enlisted in an army The only one worth fighting for The only one worth fighting for Lost I'm sure but what you hold Was made to save the world No broken tree so beautiful Water blood the stains to come But your sweat joins in the mix Like no others ever did Like no others ever did MESSAGE SUMMARY: Here stands a man, ‘on his way in from the country,' (Luke 23:26), who stumbles upon a spectacle like no other. In front of him trod criminals to their death, convicted and condemned, being led out of Jerusalem carrying the instruments of their own mortality on their backs. The criminals were minutes away from the ends of their lives; Simon was minutes away from town. He had made a nearly nine-hundred-mile journey from Cyrene, a city residing in what is present day Libya in North Africa. He was most likely in Jerusalem for the festival of Passover, as many Jews from his home had made custom. But the singularity of this moment went well beyond an annual ritual. He was ‘seized' by some Roman soldiers, and made to help one of the criminals. Undoubtedly a confusing circumstance, this was not what Simon had traveled all this way for. It must have been quite unnerving. It was not a part of his plan. But Simon did as instructed. He lifted the beam with the Savior of the world. He sweat with Jesus, as each step became more difficult than the one before. They made progress together, toward the hill where the cross would be lifted. The blood of Jesus could have stained his clothes. Maybe Jesus spoke to him, words unique and perfect. Simon took on a one-of-a-kind role. No other man in history fulfilled such an appointment and none ever will again. There is much we don't know about Simon of Cyrene. We don't know if Simon knew that the man he was helping was the one some called the Christ. We don't know if he had even heard of Jesus before. What we do know is that he did not volunteer his aid. Simon was compelled to help Jesus. He was forced by a soldier out of his role as bystander, and into the canon of scripture forever. He was enlisted for a purpose unknown to him, part of God's divine system, perfect and mysterious. And in this plan, he was made to help carry the cross of Christ, regardless of whether he was averse or indifferent to the matter. Simon had no choice. Though in many ways we are like him, this is where we differ greatly from Simon. Jesus calls his disciples to choose the cross daily. “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it,” (Matthew 16:24-25). Taking up our cross means choosing to suffer under the weight of the cross beam with others. It might mean entering into the lives of those in need and walking with them along their path, even if it is difficult or painful. We have no Roman soldiers to compel us. No spears at our backs to make us act. We must step forward to join Jesus on his ‘Sorrowful Way.' We must help him bear his cross, and in turn, help lift the crosses of others. Written by Jesse Braswell Roberts / Poor Bishop Hooper golgothamusic.com // poorbishophooper.com // Second edition ©2022 Jesse Braswell Roberts / Poor Bishop Hooper TODAY'S PRAYER: Who do you know that has a heavy cross to bear? Pray for them. Pray for those in your life that you should help. Pray for the courage to step forward and join them in carrying their burdens. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because I am in Jesus Christ, I will trust in the Lord with all my heart. I will trust in the Lord with all of my heart and lean not on my own understanding. In all my ways I will seek to know Him, and He will make my pathways straight. From Proverbs 3:5f SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): Mark 15:21: “A certain man from Cyrene, Simon, the father of Alexander and Rufus, was passing by on his way in from the country, and they forced him to carry the cross.”.

Day 26 in a series of daily readings and meditations from "The School of Jesus Crucified" by Father Ignatius of the Side of Jesus. Rob will read sections from this book aloud daily throughout Lent to help draw us in deeper to our blessed Lord's Passion. Today we meditate on Jesus being assisted by Simon of Cyrene in the carrying of the Cross.#catholic #christian #lent********************************************************Avoiding Babylon was started during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. During these difficult and dark days, when most of us were isolated from family, friends, our parishes, and even the Sacraments themselves, this channel was started as a statement of standing against the tyrannical mandates that many of us were living under. Since those early days, this channel has morphed into an amazing community of friends…no…more than friends…Christian brothers and sisters…who have grown in joy and charity.Avoiding Babylon does not criticize the hierarchy or institutional Church, especially Pope Francis. We recognize there is an unprecedented crisis in the Church, but we feel that there are other shows that address these issues that are more qualified than us. Instead, we try to remind ourselves and those who enjoy the channel that being Catholic is a joyful and exciting experience. We seek true Catholic fraternity and eutrapelia with other Catholics who, like us, are doing their best to live out their vocation with the help of God's Grace. Above all, we try to bring humor and joy to the craziness of this fallen world, for as Hillaire Belloc has famously said:“Wherever the Catholic sun doth shine,There's always laughter and good red wine.At least I've always found it so.Benedicamus Domino!”https://www.avoidingbabylon.comTelegram Chat: https://t.me/+AMwZ2f9ChPg5NWNhRSS Feed for Podcast Apps: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1987412.rssSpiritusTV: https://spiritustv.com/@avoidingbabylonRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-1626455Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AvoidingBabylon Support the showCheck out our new store!
