Jesus explicitly tells His disciples of His coming suffering, death, and resurrection for a third time. Even as He reveals more details about what will happen, the disciples' misunderstanding only grows. James and John, along with their mother, ask Jesus for positions of worldly greatness. Jesus' answer begins to reveal that the true greatness of His kingdom is found in the cross. When all the disciples join in misunderstanding, Jesus teaches them that life in His kingdom is great by way of service to others. This is true because of who Jesus is. He has served us sinners by sacrificing His life in place of ours.  Rev. Andy Jagow, pastor at Bethany Lutheran Church in Alexandria, VA, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Matthew 20:17-28.  To learn more about Bethany Lutheran, visit bethany-lcms.org. “The Reign of Heaven Stands Near” is a series on Sharper Iron that studies the Gospel according to St. Matthew. The first evangelist proclaims that God has fulfilled His Old Testament promises by sending Jesus to bring the reign of the heavens among us. As the Son of David, Jesus is the gracious King we need, and as the Son of Abraham, Jesus is the blessing to all the families of the earth.  Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Pastor Appel serves at Faith Lutheran Church in Godfrey, IL.

August 20, 2026Today's Reading: Catechism: What sins should we confess?Daily Lectionary: 2 Samuel 12:1-25; 2 Samuel 13:1-19:43; 1 Corinthians 12:1-13“Nathan said to David, ‘You are the man!'” (2 Samuel 12:7a)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Put yourself in Nathan's shoes. How'd you like it if God sent you to confront the most powerful man in the nation to call him out for a sin –a man who was a warrior who killed thousands of his enemies and had recently been involved in a murder? Nathan had tremendous courage, but also wisdom from on high.Nathan's approach to David offers a master class in how to rebuke sinners. He tells David a story about a rich man and a poor man and gets David angry to the point he exclaims that the rich man is guilty and deserves to die for stealing the poor man's beloved little lamb. Nathan has him right where he wants him, then he springs the trap: “You are the man!” and he unloads on David for his great sins.Nathan not only reveals all the evil David tried to cover up, he also begins to pronounce the punishment that God told him would ensue. Because he used the Ammonites to kill Uriah, they would never cease attacking him. The Lord would also raise up discord in David's own house, and his wives would cheat on him, and it would be widely known.As far as we know, this is the first time anyone tried to confront David for his sin. What would David do? Would he respond in rage and lash out at Nathan? David is an exceptional man in that, even though he had been deluded and engaged in so much evil, he also can now clearly see his sin and is ready to be done with it. Many people will double down and deny and retaliate when confronted, but to his credit, David humbles himself and confesses. And Nathan responds right away: “The Lord has put away your sin; you shall not die.”God sent Nathan to David, not to put him down, but to save him. David was stuck in sin and living in unrepentance. That is the way that leads to death and damnation. God used Nathan to humble David and lead him to confess. Confession and humility is the way that leads to life. “But if we confess our sins, God who is faithful and just, will forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”Sinners who turn from their sins and seek help from God will receive forgiveness, and because of Jesus, we will live even though we die. But take note: forgiveness and eternal salvation does not mean we suffer no consequences for our actions in this life. God punished David severely for his actions. We, too, must face the consequences of our sins in this life, but Christ promises a day when we will be free from even this, when we will be like the angels in their innocence, and He will wipe every tear from our eyes.In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.God, be merciful to me, a sinner. Amen.Rev. Joel Shaltanis, pastor of Lord of Life Lutheran Church, Plano, TX.

So much better than we expected! Natalie Grace in Lee Cronin’s The Mummy (2026) ★★★★ The first half of 2026 certainly made a statement in the horror genre. Reverberations will be felt across Hollywood as studios reassess what constitutes a blockbuster. The recent critical success of Sinners, Weapons, and The Substance appears to be bearing fruit. The results may have led to a diverse slate of offerings for 2026, and it is reflected in the wide array of horror offerings so far this year. If variety is your preference, then you have been in luck, so far. The unimaginable financial and critical success of Obsession and Backrooms, particularly given their low cost, have re-written the horror producer’s playbook, and will have a lasting impact for years to come. The Scariest Things evaluated what we’ve seen so far, and have come back with a report card of our favorites. The Mid Major – Large Indie Productions: It will be interesting to do an autopsy of 2026’s horror fare when we do our year end assessment. This year’s crop has been notably light on mid-major productions so far. The roaring successes we’ve seen thus far have been from the deep indie filmmakers. Backrooms, Undertone, Hokum, and Obsession. All original titles, and produced for less than $5 million. These are not the type of films you would typically predict would be box office hits. But, they outperformed any reasonable expectation, particularly startling for Backrooms and Obsession, which will have cinema economists trying to figure out the alchemy. The Major Studios: There were only a few major studio franchise sequels this year. All of them capable, but none of them superseding their source material. Scream 7 did very well at the box office, but it failed to make a big impression. Evil Dead Burn was a very violent, very intense outing that didn’t connect in the way its predecessors have. Scary Movie also did well on its $30 million budget, earning $210 million, its long layoff didn’t hurt its popularity, despite the derivative humor. 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple was a hit with critics (including our own Liz Williams) but it’s turn from zombies may have hurt it in the box office, as it probably will not make its budget back. The notable big comeback was Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, which gives horror fans hope that Universal has gotten their monsterverse back on track, and remembered how to deliver a vicious movie with a good story. The Festival Circuit: Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to get out to as many film festivals this year as we would have liked, but we still managed to review a lot of great small indie horror films. Our traditional rotation of SXSW, Overlook, Portland Horror, and Popcorn Frights all provided very interesting films from emerging filmmakers. Even the bigger festival this year were heavy on small indie productions, and there were a lot of good offerings. We didn’t discuss all of them in our Podcast, but you can review a lot of the movies we saw with links on the images below. There is an emerging trend of release schedules for many of the best independent horror films, relative to the festival circuit. Open at SXSW (Or sometimes Sundance), get some buzz, go to Overlook to validate the buzz, and then release in the early summer. It can be a big momentum builder. Last year it was The Ugly Stepsister (Oscar Nom), and Good Boy that were the big beneficiaries of that combination. This year it was Obsession, Hokum, and Leviticus. Sometimes Panic Fest will factor into the equation, depending on when runs relative to Overlook. Popcorn Frights still brought a massive catalogue for viewing, but this year was more reliant on reperatory films. Some of my favorite films this year were horror adjacent, and all of their streaming content was small indie productions. Our favorite local festival, The Portland Horror Film Festival had an unusually large amount of feature films, and the best part was that almost all of the directors participated in the festival. We were fortunate to get interviews with all of them. Check out our Podcasts for the interviews. It was a diverse group of films, and not a dud among them. What is Still Coming in 2026? Probably the most intriguing film still due out is a new take on Resident Evil by Zach Cregger, the director of Barbarian and Weapons. This is a major tonal shift for Sony. No more Mia Jovovic or Paul W.S. Anderson. Video game translations are usually dubious, and the franchise squandered its potential. It became more superhero and less horror. However, Sony is gambling that with the right creator, it might revitalize the legacy, and Cregger may inject real scares into this franchise for the first time since the original. We shall see. The trailer looks great. Other Mommy, which arrives on October 9, has some incredibly disturbing visuals. Jessica Chastain stars, and Rob Savage (Host) directs. This uncanny-valley movie came late to my radar and is intriguing. Later this August, the Insidious franchise is issuing Insidious: Out of the Further. Lin Shaye returns, Leigh Whannell writes this, and it has a banger trailer. This franchise has maintained some of the scariest PG-13 fare, but the sequels have been a gradual decline in quality. We’ll see how this goes. Beware Boiúna might give us the Anaconda movie we wish we got earlier this year, and wipe the slate clean from the Jack Black/Paul Rudd disappointment. It’s R-rated, and features reliable scream queen Jessica Rothe, along with Logan Marshall-Green and Kiana Madeira in the Amazon. The trailer impressed me with the snake’s monstrousness. Another fascinating man-vs-nature survival tale is Whalefall, a terrifying concept in which a scuba diver is in jeopardy of being consumed by a sperm whale if the giant squid the whale has snagged doesn’t kill him first. Clayface will attempt to bridge the superhero and horror genres, which is no easy feat. Will it have enough horror for horror fans, and will it have enough fealty to the Batman universe to appeal to the comic book fans? Mike Flanagan wrote it, and it promises real R-rated body horror, so it could be very interesting. Lastly, Robert Eggers’ period piece Werwulf is getting the full Eggers treatment, in monochrome and as moody as you could possibly want. Hopefully it will get the stink of the Wolf Man out of our popcorn. Just give me a great transformation scene, please. Keep an eye out for It Ends, a festival darling from 2025 which is finally getting a limited release this year. It is a brilliant, if melancholy purgatory metaphor. If you enjoyed Backrooms, you should check this film out if you are lucky enough to have it showing in a theater near you. Of course, some smaller films will come out of the shadows and inevitably make our end-of-the-top-10 lists, but this is what we know so far.

This book opened a door and no one could ever close that door again.Today we meet Patrick Doyle and we're talking about the queer book that saved his life: Our Lady of the Flowers by Jean Genet.PLEASE NOTE: This is an explicit book and so our episode is too. There is strong sexual content.Patrick Doyle writes queer fiction, ranging from romance to mystery to thrillers and science fiction to just plain fiction. His stories depict gay men facing the challenges of living and loving in today's world. His previous novels include Pierre and Bill, Beau's Dilemma, and Jordi's Day. His latest novel, Bill & The Kid: A Queer Family. A Troubled Child. A Secret. A Crime comes out on October 1, 2026.Our Lady of the Flowers is considered Genet's masterpiece. It is a lyrical portrait of the criminal underground of Paris and the thieves, murderers and pimps who occupied it. Genet approached this world through his protagonist, Divine, a male transvestite prostitute. In the world of Our Lady of the Flowers, moral conventions are turned on their head. Sinners are portrayed as saints and when evil is not celebrated outright, it is at least viewed with a benign indifference.Connect with Patrickwebsite: patrickdoylewrites.comgoodreads: @Patrick_DoyleOur BookshopVisit our Bookshop for new releases, current bestsellers, banned books, critically acclaimed LGBTQ books, or peruse the books featured on our podcasts: bookshop.org/shop/thisqueerbookBuy your copy of Our Lady of the Flowers here: https://bookshop.org/a/82376/9780802130136Become an Associate Producer!Become an Associate Producer of our podcast through a $20/month sponsorship on Patreon!

The call of Christ and His church is offered to the unworthy sinner. For those who consider themselves worthy, they will neither hear His call nor extend it to others. 1. The call of Christ grants forgiveness to sinners. 2. The call of Christ grants fellowship to sinners. 3. The call of Christ grants freedom to sinners.

Today we examine the word of the Lord Jesus Christ as He indicts the sinners who are neither good nor bad.

This week, Ciara and Shane were joined by Off the Ball's Cameron Hill and presenter of Weekend Breakfast on Today FM, Alison Curtis, to look back on the week that was, but with a few twists...

August 13, 2026Today's Reading: Catechism: What is Confession?Daily Lectionary: 1 Samuel 31:1-13; 1 Corinthians 7:1-24“…Our sins are forgiven before God in heaven.” (Small Catechism- Confession)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.The Lutheran Service Book says on page 292 (in red ink): “If you are not burdened with particular sins, do not trouble yourself or search for or invent other sins, thereby turning confession into a torture. Instead, mention one or two sins that you know and let that be enough.”We're big fans of the healing Jesus, the feeding Jesus—and these are super neat things, for sure—but this same Jesus is the dying Jesus, the blood-shedding Jesus, the merciful, forgiving, life-bringing Jesus. When it comes to this Jesus, the forgiveness of sin… well… that's a little harder. If you're blind, everyone knows it; you don't have to level your pride or have your ego crushed. Sinners are prone to hide stuff… to cover it up. And it's that covering up that prevents us from hearing the Word of God: “But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—He then said to the paralytic, “Rise, pick up your bed and go home.” (Matthew 9:6)We love the Jesus who feeds and heals, but when our Lord says that forgiveness is bestowed to us on account of Jesus through the pastor who gives the medicine of immortality—the forgiveness of sins that makes us alive again—that would mean admitting to another person that we're not doing well, and it would mean that only Jesus can do something about what's killing us.We're not perfect; we say THAT all the time. We haven't kept the Ten Commandments, but it's hard to say with St. Paul, “Wretched man that I am, who will save me from this body of death?” (Rom. 7:24) We can confess sin—it's that body-of-death part that's true—but it's the second part, receiving forgiveness, that's so hard. Dead bodies must be given to; only God can do that. So we must ask: “What kind of God are we dealing with?” The God who'll squash us like a bug? Or… is He the slow-to-anger and abounding-in-steadfast-love God? The God Who comes and dwells in the stinky mire of this fallen world to give us the cure for the sin that makes us blind, deaf, lame, and dead?” He's exactly that God, as Luther writes: “Absolution is the Word of God spoken by the mouth of man. It is not the word of man, but of God Himself.” (AE 35:14)In the Name + of Jesus. AmenWe pray: Grant us, O Lord, we pray, to trust in Thee with all our heart; seeing that, as Thou dost always resist the proud who confide in their own strength, so Thou dost not forsake those who make their boast in Thy mercy made known chiefly in the forgiveness of our sin; through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.Rev. Adam DeGroot, pastor of Calvary Lutheran Church in Rio Rancho, NM.

The Haint | Paranormal Podcast This week, we headed down to the Lowcountry to dig into one of the South's most fascinating and frustrating paranormal entities — the haint — which depending on who you ask is a ghost, a demon, an evil spirit tied to the earth, or honestly all of the above, rooted in the rich and deeply important traditions of the Gullah Geechee people and a blend of African, European, and Creole folklore that stretches from Wilmington all the way down to St. Augustine. We broke down everything from haint blue paint on porch ceilings to brooms hung above doorways to bottle trees to iron and salt, because apparently the best thing about haints is that they're compelled to count every bristle on a broom before they can touch you. Then we got into three stories from the book Haint Country plus a personal account from our friend Elayna over at What About Weird podcast, who spent years being visited by a tall black smoke figure with yellow eyes that showed up every time life got hard.

Where is the "sinner's prayer" in the Bible? Trick question. It's not there. In this episode of Fuel for the Harvest, Nathan sits down with fellow Forge speaker Joshua McFann to unpack where this prayer came from, why it works, and exactly what to say when someone tells you they want to give their life to Jesus.Joshua and Nathan trace the sinner's prayer back to its roots, from baptism in the book of Acts, through the Second Great Awakening, to Billy Graham's altar calls in the 1900s, and explain why both baptism and the prayer function the same way in a person's life: as the starting line of following Jesus, not the finish line.You'll walk away understanding the three biblical components every salvation prayer needs (surrender, belief, and repentance), grounded in Romans 10:9-10 and 1 John 1:9, along with practical, word-for-word guidance for actually praying with someone in that moment.In this episode you'll discover:-Why the sinner's prayer isn't "magic words," and what actually has to happen in someone's heart-The real difference between baptism and the sinner's prayer (and why neither saves on its own)-The 3 non-negotiable components of a biblical salvation prayer-How to guide someone through their own words instead of just feeding them a script-Why what happens after the prayer matters just as much as the prayer itself-A powerful true story of transformation from Joshua's time in ZimbabweWhether you've never led anyone to Christ before or you do it often and want to sharpen how you disciple new believers, this conversation will give you real, usable tools.

In the second week of The Gospel According to Joseph, Bishop Paul turns to Joseph being betrayed by his brothers and two truths at the heart of the story: the brothers are grievous sinners, and the father sends his favored son. Like Joseph's brothers, we are capable of great evil when sin is left unchecked. Yet just as Jacob sends his beloved son seeking the peace of his brothers, our heavenly Father sends his beloved Son, Jesus, to sinners like us—not simply to seek peace, but to make peace for us.

Speaker: Craig Durfor Sermon: God's Love for Undeserving Sinners Passage: Jonah 2 & Matthew 12 Series: The Book of Jonah  Date: 8/2/2026  

Pastor Jared Richard opens Exodus 32–34 by grounding the sermon in Romans 15:4, where Paul reminds us that everything written in the Old Testament was written for our instruction, that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope. With that foundation laid, Pastor Jared sets out to answer one of the most important questions the Bible addresses: how can a holy God continue to dwell with a continually sinful people? It's not just Israel's question — it's ours, too, for every one of us has sinned, and some of us have confessed the same sins to the Lord over and over again for years. The answer unfolds through Israel's devastating act of treasonous rebellion — the golden calf — and four conversations between Moses and God that follow. In each conversation, we see what the people deserved because of their sin: to be consumed by God's wrath, to wear the guilt of their sin forever, to be abandoned by God's covenant love, and to be kept at a distance from His presence. And in each conversation, Moses intercedes, pleading with God on their behalf, and God — merciful, gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love — responds with mercy rather than the full measure of judgment the people had earned. But the real gift of this passage, Pastor Jared argues, is what it teaches us about Jesus. Moses was a faithful mediator, willing even to offer his own life in the people's place, but he was unfit because he was not holy. Jesus is the better Moses — the one who doesn't merely pray these mercies into being, but actually accomplishes them. He bore God's wrath so we could be spared. He wore our guilt so we could be forgiven. He was forsaken so we could be loved. He was cast out into death so God could dwell in our midst. That is the Gospel according to Moses, and it is the hope every sinner desperately needs. WE'D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU!

Most people treat life insurance like the "broccoli of estate planning"—something they know is good for them, but usually avoid until it’s too late. In this episode of Talk Law Radio, host Todd Marquardt sits down with independent financial planner Joseph Warren to flip the script and reveal how life insurance acts as a vital funding vehicle, estate equalizer, and legal peace treaty for families and business owners alike. Together, Todd and Joseph pull back the curtain on the financial industry. Joseph shares his early career experiences at large insurance firms, exposing how quota-driven models and limited planning tools often lead to conflicted advice. They break down the critical questions you must ask your advisor to ensure they are serving your best interests rather than just chasing high-commission products. Main Topics Covered Navigating Financial Industry Conflicts: Why fee-biased or commission-driven setups lead to "wolf in sheep’s clothing" advice and how independent, coordinated planning between attorneys, CPAs, and planners creates true harmony. Life Insurance for Business Owners: Using life insurance as a "peace treaty" to fund buy-sell agreements, insure key employees, and equalize inheritances between children who work in the family business and those who do not. Protecting Minor Children & Special Needs Loved Ones: The legal traps of naming a minor child directly as a beneficiary and how pairing life insurance with revocable or supplemental needs trusts protects government benefits and avoids costly probate court guardianships. Sinners and Saints: A sobering look at the Texas "Slayer Statute" (where a murderer loses beneficiary rights), paired with an unexpected archaeological discovery regarding Saint Augustine. Land Rich, Cash Poor & Estate Tax Solutions: How Irrevocable Life Insurance Trusts (ILITs) and "Crummey" letters allow high-net-worth families, farmers, and ranchers to pay heavy federal estate taxes without forcing a fire sale on family land. Key Takeaways The Buy-Sell "Peace Treaty": Life insurance gives remaining business partners the cash needed to buy out a deceased partner's shares, ensuring the family receives full financial value without having to manage a business they don't understand. Never Name a Minor as a Beneficiary: Insurance companies cannot pay policy proceeds directly to minors. Doing so forces the surviving parent into court to become a court-appointed guardian over their own child's money. Always route these funds through a properly drafted trust. Be Mindful of the Estate Tax Trap: Though life insurance payout is income-tax-free, the total death benefit is included in your gross estate for federal estate tax purposes unless structured through an Irrevocable Life Insurance Trust (ILIT). Buy Before You Need It: Life insurance must be purchased before tragedy strikes. Health changes can quickly disqualify you, making early, proactive planning the most affordable way to protect your family's future. Episode Breakdown [00:00] Intro: The Quiet Disasters of Unstructured Life Insurance [01:15] Conflicted Advice in the Financial Industry with Joseph Warren [06:30] The 5 Real-World Scenarios: Business Buy-Sells & Key Person Insurance [10:45] Naming Minor Children vs. Trust Planning [14:10] Sinners & Saints: The Slayer Statute Case & St. Augustine [19:25] Supplemental Needs Trusts for Special Needs Beneficiaries [21:50] Land Rich, Cash Poor: ILITs & Paying Estate Taxes [25:30] Legacy Spotlight: Why Proactive Planning Delivers True Peace of Mind -Sponsored by Marquardt Law Firm and Financial Planning HQ -Go to marquardtlawfirm.com and financialplanninghq.net If you found this episode valuable, please Subscribe and hit the Notification Bell on YouTube.
