In this lecture, Ian, one of the pastors, explores the themes of repentance and transformation as presented in Matthew's Gospel, specifically focusing on the figures of John the Baptist and Jesus. The session begins with a reading from Matthew 3:1-6 and 4:17, which sets the groundwork for the discussion on the importance of turning away from sin and towards God, encapsulating the central message of repentance that both John and Jesus proclaim.Ian reflects on the historical context of the time, recalling a turbulent period in 1858 Manhattan. He illustrates the inner turmoil of a man who, while contemplating dark actions, finds himself in a prayer meeting led by Jeremiah Lamphere, where the genuine confessions and prayers of other attendees move him toward repentance. This powerful personal narrative emphasizes how collective spiritual encounters can lead to profound life changes, underscoring the impact of community in the act of repentance and the transformation that often follows.Shifting focus to the text from Matthew's Gospel, Ian outlines how John the Baptist, dressed in a manner that evokes the prophetic tradition, preaches the urgent message: “Repent of your sins and turn to God, for the kingdom of heaven is near.” He draws attention to the stark contrast between the religious elite of Jerusalem and the common people who heed John's call. The wilderness becomes a symbol of purification and preparation, framing repentance not merely as a change of mind but as a holistic transformation involving heart, mind, and behavior.Ian emphasizes how the concept of repentance is deeply relational, rooted in the acknowledgment of one's sin against God. He explains that true repentance involves a turning towards God, which requires both an internal and external orientation. This is exemplified through the analogy of his own travels, illustrating that recognizing one's faulty direction leads to deliberate change. As he delves into various historical revivals, he highlights how each transformative movement is characterized by collective repentance, reminding listeners that throughout history, turning back to God has drawn His presence into communities.Furthermore, the lecture discusses the significance of baptism as a symbolic act of repentance and a transition into a renewed relationship with God, paralleling the Exodus narrative where God's people experienced transformation through physical crossings. In doing so, Ian contemplates the urgency behind John's ministry, calling God's people to undergo a similar spiritual Exodus—leaving behind ingrained practices that stray from God's ways.As Ian transitions toward a conclusion, he encourages attendees to evaluate their relationship with God and the state of their hearts, inviting them to engage in personal acts of repentance. He offers an affirmation that true repentance is liberative and brings about healing within both individual lives and the broader community. The session highlights that repentance is not a one-time act but an ongoing, essential practice for a vibrant relationship with God, inviting listeners to embrace this transformative journey.In the closing remarks, listeners are encouraged to take personal steps toward restoration, be it through direct repentance or intercession on behalf of others. Ian underscores that the kindness of God leads to repentance, unlocking the potential for renewal both personally and collectively, as they seek to inhabit a community characterized by grace and support, fostering an environment where turning toward God becomes a natural response.

Inglourious Basterds (2009), written and directed by Quentin Tarantino, revolves around two plots to assassinate Nazi leaders during the closing years of World War II. One plot centers on a secret band of Jewish-American soldiers under the command of Ltn. Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt)—the “Basterds”—who terrorize Nazis. The other involves Shosanna Dreyfus (Melanie Laurent), a young Jewish woman who narrowly escapes death at the hands of notorious “Jew hunter” Hans Landa (Christoph Waltz) and flees to Paris where she runs a cinema under a false identity. The plot lines converge at the Paris cinema where the Basterds and Shosanna are each separately plotting to kill Hitler and other Nazi leaders while they are attending the premiere of a German propaganda film. The film utilizes alternate history to explore themes surrounding the pursuit of justice against the perpetrators of mass atrocities and the complex relationship between law and vengeance.Timestamps:0:00    Introduction2:37     Reimagining the arc of justice8:00     Alternatives to the progress narrative16:51     The power of violence and revenge21:56     Counterfactuals and alternative histories27:03     The limits of legalistic responses to atrocities32:24     The role of cinema in Nazi Germany39:00     Narratives of progress44:10     Ending with a primal moment of revenge  Further reading:Hussain, Nadine, “‘Inglorious Basterds': A Satirical Criticism of WWII Cinema and the Myth of the American War Hero,” 13(2) Inquiries Journal 1 (2021)Jackson, Robert H., Opening Statement before the International Military Tribunal, Robert H.

Ecc 7:3  Sorrow is better than laughter, For when a face is sad a heart may be happy.

Arthur Oakes spends his days in a picturesque tableau of scholastic life – reading in the exceptional Rackham College library, dreaming against scenic Maine backdrops, entertaining a burgeoning romance with bold and brainy Gwen Underfoot. What more could a studious kid want? Surely not to be roped into a criminal endeavor by a local drug dealer and her partner, bent on committing a truly atrocious crime against the law and academia itself – stealing rare books from the college library. In his attempts to escape the dangers stacked against him, Arthur turns down a dark and unforeseen path into extraordinary loopholes and treacherous trickery. In his newest novel King Sorrow, author Joe Hill brings together an eclectic group of Arthur's closest friends to scheme their way out of the peril breathing down their necks. Irrepressible moneybags Colin Wren, brave and beautiful Alison Shiner, the battling twins Donna and Donovan McBride, and with dear Gwen in the mix, they should absolutely be able to get Arthur out of this bind. Should be simple really – grab an ominous tome bound in the skin of its author, warp the very reality of the world around them, summon a dragon to do their bidding. But turns out there's nothing simple about dealing with dragons, and this crew soon learns that supernatural deals with immensely powerful beasts should perhaps not be made so lightly. King Sorrow follows this group on their winding paths through both human and fantastical villainy, biting off more than they bargained for and facing a terrifying pattern to uphold. A new sacrifice must be chosen every year, or risk becoming King Sorrow's next meal. Joe Hill is a best-selling author of novels, novellas, short stories, and comics exploring genres of horror, dark fantasy, and science fiction. His previous published works include the award-winning novels Heart-Shaped Box, NOS4A2, and The Fireman as well as the shorts collections Strange Weather, 20th Century Ghosts, and Full Throttle. He is also the co-creator of the long-running comic series Locke & Key, which was later adapted into a Netflix TV series. Buy the Book King Sorrow: A Novel Elliott Bay Book Company

Dan takes us to downtown Dallas, across from Union Station, to an old hotel that's changed names so many times it's like it keeps trying to hide from its past. Room 1009 doesn't seem to care what the hotel is called, though. Stories of encounters with its ghosts remain unchanged. The room allegedly has a long, sordid history of murders and suspicious deaths tied to it. Then we explore the lore of the elegant Adolphous Hotel. It's been collecting tragedy since the first month it opened. On the nineteenth floor, guests still report hearing a woman sobbing like her heart is breaking in real time. Lynze starts off with a possible Grim Reaper sighting on the night of a confirmed death. Then, we head to Key West AKA Bone Island, for a ghost tour with an actual ghost. Lastly, on a long drive home after a long week of work, a man encounters someone who seems to have wandered out of their final resting place. Do you want to get all of our episodes a WEEK early, ad free?

EPISODE 661 - Leah Polworth - The heartbreaking news of a terminal diagnosis and the aftermath of sorrow, longing, confusion, and the heartache after lossWelcome to “Letters to Billy.” This memoir is my legacy. Journaling has always been a means for me to track my most heartfelt thoughts, deepest emotions, epiphanies, and reckonings. I am so pleased I persevered and published this memoir, which was initially intended to be something I could pass down to my son, Billy, when he becomes old enough to read and understand it.As I delved deeper into writing about my husband Steve's cancer journey—the knowledge we gained, the decisions we had to make, and the trials and tribulations along the way—it became apparent that my story might resonate with and provide comfort to others whose lives have taken a similar path.This book explores many themes: finding your soul mate, the wonderful man my husband was, the fleeting yet precious time we were blessed to have as a family, and the heartbreak of a terminal diagnosis. It captures hope, doubt, fear, tenacious love, and the short but intense journey through treatment, followed by the aftermath of sorrow, longing, confusion, and heartache after loss. Suddenly, I found myself a single parent needing to raise a young baby amid crushing grief, to the moments of peace, clarity, and reflection as the grief tide slowly ebbs and joy returns once again.I hope you find comfort, solace, and perhaps some inspiration from our story. Thank you for joining me on this path of self-discovery and healing.Book: Letters to Billy: A story of love, loss, lessons and self-discoveryLeah and Steve Polwarth seemed destined for a lifetime of joy. They married in 2017, and by 2019, their hearts swelled with the arrival of their son, Billy. But it wasn't long before their perfect world fell apart - Steve was delivered a life shattering diagnosis.Despite their unwavering hope and desperate fight, Leah was forced to say a heartbreaking goodbye to the love of her life, leaving her to navigate the suffocating grief of widowhood while raising their son in the midst of the global chaos of the COVID-19 pandemic.Letters to Billy is a raw and emotional journey through unimaginable loss, yet it is also a celebration of a mother's unbreakable love, fierce resilience and the powerful bond between a mother and her son.In the face of devastating grief, Leah finds a way forward, discovering moments of grace and uncovering the beauty that can still bloom, even in the darkest of times.https://letterstobilly.com.au/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

Episode Summary:In the second part of our deep dive into the origins of the Soviet famine, Nick continues his exploration of 1928-1929, the critical years that sealed the fate of the Russian peasantry.Drawing again on Robert Conquest's The Harvest of Sorrow, we examine how Stalin's "emergency measures"—intended to be temporary—became a permanent war on the countryside. Why did the Bolsheviks believe that the "middle peasant" was a capitalist hoarder? How did the regime's reliance on bad data lead to a spiral of confiscation and violence that destroyed the incentives to produce food?We uncover the tragic logic of a state that viewed market mechanisms as a threat and chose instead to loot its own people, setting the stage for the catastrophic famine of the early 1930s.Plus: A reminder for history students!

“And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.” (Isaiah 35:10) ... More...

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Read more about Project23 and partner with us as we teach every verse of the Bible on video. Our text today is Judges 20:22-25. But the people, the men of Israel, took courage, and again formed the battle line in the same place where they had formed it on the first day. And the people of Israel went up and wept before the Lord until the evening. And they inquired of the Lord, "Shall we again draw near to fight against our brothers, the people of Benjamin?" And the Lord said, "Go up against them." So the people of Israel came near against the people of Benjamin the second day. And Benjamin went against them out of Gibeah the second day, and destroyed 18,000 men of the people of Israel. All these were men who drew the sword. — Judges 20:22-25 Israel tries again. They pray and weep. This time it looks more spiritual. But still, there's no real repentance. They ask, "Should we go again?"—not, "Lord, what have we done wrong?" They confuse emotion with surrender. Their tears are real, but their pride is intact. God isn't after their sadness—He's after their submission. The phrase "sorrow isn't surrender" sums up Israel's problem and often ours too—emotion without repentance never changes the outcome. And so they lose again. Another 18,000 die. Why? Because feeling bad isn't the same as turning back. God allows defeat until their hearts are truly humbled. This is how pride disguises itself in our lives. We tell God we're sorry for the consequences but hold on to control. We cry over the damage but won't lay down our will. We promise change but never surrender our way. It's like a marriage that keeps circling the same fights. One spouse says, "I'm sorry you feel that way," but never owns the hurt they caused. The words sound humble, but pride is still running the show. Until someone truly surrenders, healing never starts. Israel's story is our story. We mourn the results of sin—broken homes, fractured churches, divided nations—but we're not broken before God. And until we are, He will let us feel the weight of our own choices. The truth is, sorrow isn't always true surrender. Don't wait for another round of collateral damage to learn surrender. Lay down your pride now. Stop fighting your way and start trusting his. God will not give victory to the proud—but he will lift up the humble. ASK THIS: Am I more grieved by the consequences of sin or the cause of it? Where have I mistaken regret for repentance? How has pride kept me from true surrender in my relationships? What battle am I still fighting that God is waiting for me to release? DO THIS: Admit where pride still controls your responses—especially in your closest relationships. Write down one area you've been "sorry about" but haven't surrendered—and pray over it daily this week. PRAY THIS: Father, I'm tired of circling the same battles. Break the pride that blinds me and teach me to truly surrender. Help me move from tears of regret to the obedience of repentance. I don't want to just feel sorry—I want to be changed. Amen. PLAY THIS: "I Surrender."

God’s new mercies for a new year remind us that lasting hope isn’t found in resolutions, productivity, or perfectly planned goals, but in the daily faithfulness of the Lord. Rooted in Lamentations 3:21–27, this devotional points us to the steady truth that God’s compassion never fails, His mercy is renewed every morning, and His presence is sufficient for each ordinary day ahead. Highlights Ordinary, quiet days can feel harder than busy ones, yet they are sacred gifts from God. Our relationship with God is not a goal to achieve but a journey to continue. New Year’s resolutions cannot sustain spiritual growth the way daily dependence on God can. God’s mercy, love, and compassion are renewed every single morning without fail. Hope is not found in knowing the future but in trusting the God who reigns over it. There is always enough mercy for each day—never more, never less. Living one day at a time frees us from fear and anchors us in God’s faithfulness. Do you want to listen ad-free?

Silently, while my house is still quiet, I pour the steaming liquid. The morning hours are sacred, peaceful, and go by too fast. My children, all five of them, will wake up early. The rooms will be filled with voices, doors opening, and then the noises of food being fixed in the kitchen. Although they are older now and can make their own breakfast, I walk in with my empty coffee cup. I’m ready to help them pack their lunches and pour the orange juice. The morning hours will once again be quiet after getting them off to school, but facing my day means I face the truth that ordinary, mundane days are often harder than the busy ones. How do I spend my day? What is truly important? If I made a list, it would be a mile long. New days bring new to-do lists. Jobs, careers, family, and ministry weave together as the years go by, but how do we decide what to do with our days? Each day is a gift from God, and we don’t want to waste our time, so how do we live better? As the new year approaches, you and I want to make our lives better. We want our health to be better, our relationships to be better, and we want our faith to be better. Although New Year’s resolutions are great, maybe even beneficial, what we cannot resolve to do better is our relationship with God. Our connection to God is something to grow, not a goal to reach. I admit that many times over the years, I’ve spent time writing out my goals and aspirations for my life in December and January, including “spiritual things.” I would write down things like praying more, reading my Bible more, and doing more for God. Although we can make tangible goals like that, God is not asking us to reach a certain point, but to continue on in the journey with Him. What if instead of looking for more, we looked for new? In the new year, maybe we can find hope, mercy, and peace not in our goals or resolutions, but in the daily mercies God is already giving us. What do we have that is something we’ve forgotten about God? What if we stopped looking for more and looked to God for the daily? In the book of Lamentations, we see a powerful passage of hope. The author has spent two and a half chapters lamenting the destruction of Jerusalem. Sorrow, death, and fear surrounded the city. The author’s heart was completely overwhelmed. If you are entering this new year with trepidation, fear, or sorrow, listen closely to the turning point that happens here in the following verses. Yet this I call to mindand therefore I have hope: Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed,for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning;great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, “The Lord is my portion;therefore I will wait for him.” The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him,to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietlyfor the salvation of the Lord. -Lamentations 3:21-27 (ESV) God’s love, compassion, and mercy are new every morning. Our lives are not built because we make New Year's resolutions or meet all our goals. In the daily choices we make, that’s what really counts. How can we daily look to God for our hope? We don’t know what will happen in the coming year, but we can know for sure God will be on his throne (Psalm 47:2), there is hope (Psalm 9:18), and Christ is with us. (Matthew 28:20) As we enter the new year, don’t forget that God’s mercies are new today. Every year, every morning, and each moment we walk through life, God is with us and His mercy has no end! This gives us a place to start connecting with God right now. Each day, there is enough mercy for that day. There will always be enough. God’s mercy and love are faithful to show up every day without fail. It never runs out. You won’t disappoint, sin, or make mistakes that keep you from God’s love and compassion. We can’t outrun God’s love for us. Don’t get wrapped up in trying to prepare for the whole year in January. Just trust God, there will be enough for each day as it comes. He invites us to live this life one day at a time. Make one resolution or goal: to connect with God daily. Psalm 68:19 says that God “daily bears us up” (ESV). Each day God lifts us, provides for us the hope and mercy we need. God will never fail us. In Romans 8:31-39, Paul tells us what can separate us from God’s love. Spoiler: Nothing can! Intersecting Faith & Life: A New Year can invite us to celebrate God’s new mercies, which show up every day. We access this through His Word. Do you have a regular Bible reading habit or study plan? If life feels overwhelming, I invite you to begin with the Psalms. Check out the podcast Psalms to Help You Sleep to jump-start a daily Bible routine. You can start experiencing God’s new mercies in this new year.

The Word of the Day with Rene Holaday for Monday, 1-5-26: Micah 7:1-20: "Sorrow for Israel's Sins, and God will Forgive Israel." Verse18 says: "He does not retain His anger forever, because He delights in mercy." Verse 14 describes "Shepherd Your people with Your staff.  the flock of Your heritage who dwell solitarily in a woodland, in the midst of Carmel; Let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old." We are watching the full restoration of Israel right now, just as Micah predicts here in this chapter.  Join me this morning to hear how God is a covenant God who keeps His promises and covenants.  He punished Israel for crucifying The Messiah, but He is also their redeemer who brings them back and restores them to the fullest because He delights in MERCY!  ;()  Hurray!! If any of you can help me with firewood, I could use help!  If you're blessed by this daily Bible Study and you can help me with a donation of $5 or more to my PayPal address, it certainly would be appreciated!  This next couple weeks I will be having a "FIREWOOD funds drive" so I can buy more firewood, and you can donate any amount to : reneholaday@gmail.com if you go to PayPal.com and let them know your amount and my PayPal email address.  THANK YOU ahead of time! Blessings to everyone!  ;()

ISAIAH 35Even the wilderness and desert will be glad in those days.   The wasteland will rejoice and blossom with spring crocuses.Yes, there will be an abundance of flowers   and singing and joy!The deserts will become as green as the mountains of Lebanon,   as lovely as Mount Carmel or the plain of Sharon.There the Lord will display his glory,   the splendor of our God.With this news, strengthen those who have tired hands,   and encourage those who have weak knees.Say to those with fearful hearts,   “Be strong, and do not fear,for your God is coming to destroy your enemies.   He is coming to save you.”And when he comes, he will open the eyes of the blind   and unplug the ears of the deaf.The lame will leap like a deer,   and those who cannot speak will sing for joy!Springs will gush forth in the wilderness,   and streams will water the wasteland.The parched ground will become a pool,   and springs of water will satisfy the thirsty land.Marsh grass and reeds and rushes will flourish   where desert jackals once lived.And a great road will go through that once deserted land.   It will be named the Highway of Holiness.Evil-minded people will never travel on it.   It will be only for those who walk in God's ways;   fools will never walk there.Lions will not lurk along its course,   nor any other ferocious beasts.There will be no other dangers.   Only the redeemed will walk on it.Those who have been ransomed by the Lord will return.   They will enter Jerusalem[a] singing,   crowned with everlasting joy.—-Sorrow and mourning will disappear,   and they will be filled with joy and gladness.PRAY:Father, we thank you for this time of joyful waiting. May the hope and joy of this season fill our hearts and make us living signs of your love for a world that hungers for your peace. Immanuel, God with us. Amen

This week, Hunter Warner, our Director of Ministries, talked about how Advent makes space for both joy and sorrow.

Are you or someone that you know suffering through a grief that seems to linger on and on, especially during the holiday season? In this episode, host Tina Yeager sits down with the talented singer-songwriter Grace Humphries, who opens her heart about navigating grief during the holiday season. At just 18 years old, Grace Humphries has already touched countless lives with her soulful music and powerful message. She shares the inspiration behind her moving holiday ballad, "For Years," a song born from the loss of her beloved brother to brain cancer. Through their heartfelt conversation, Grace Humphries and Tina Yeager explore the complexity of grief—how it lingers, changes shape, and impacts not just individuals, but entire families. They discuss the challenges of childhood grief, the danger of comparison, and how important it is to honor every form of loss, from lost loved ones to lost dreams. This episode isn't just about sorrow, though—it's about the hope and healing that come when we confront grief openly, lean into faith, and find creative outlets like music. Grace Humphries shares her journey through isolation, the support of her family, and how songwriting became a lifeline. Whether you're facing your own grief or supporting someone who is, this episode offers comfort, understanding, and a reminder that with time, things do get better. Inside This Episode: The Story Behind "For Years": Grace opened up about losing her brother to brain cancer at just eight years old, and how that loss continues to color her holiday memories. Her vulnerability shines in her new song, written to comfort anyone who feels lonely, misunderstood, or sorrowful during this time of year. Different Faces of Grief: Tina Yeager and Grace Humphries discuss how grief comes in many forms—lost loved ones, unfulfilled dreams, even the ache of waiting for the right relationships. They unpack the myth that grief has a timeline, reminding listeners that "it gets more bearable every year" but never magically disappears. Supporting Each Other Through Loss: Grace shares insight into grieving as a child and feeling isolated at school, but also highlights the power of a strong support system at home and the healing found through music and faith. Music as Medicine: Hear how songwriting became an outlet for healing and self-expression for Grace, and how her Christian faith helped her move forward through anger, doubt, and loneliness. Messages of Hope & Empowerment: Grace hopes her listeners find comfort, knowing they're not alone. She encourages everyone to face grief head-on, reach out for support, and remember that even if things don't get "better" overnight, healing is possible in time. Connect with Grace: You can listen to "For Years" and more on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, or anywhere you stream music. Follow her journey on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, or visit GraceHumphries.com for all the latest updates. Staff Pick: Grace's favorite track (besides "For Years") is "I Couldn't"—a boss-girl anthem about saying no and standing up for yourself. Final Thought: If you're struggling this season, take heart. As Grace says, "Keep going… in the right timing, it'll happen." Give yourself grace, and remember you're not alone.

Psalm 103 and Ecclesiastes 7: Why Is Sorrow Better Than Laughter? by Shawn Ozbun

A skeptical investigator joined a paranormal team expecting a thrill, maybe an EVP, maybe nothing at all. But when the group stepped into a vandalized graveyard at two in the morning, the silence wasn't empty — it was charged. The air thickened. The temperature shifted. Something unseen pushed in close enough to feel. Then it touched him. A single arm went icy cold — ten degrees colder than the rest of his body — while a heaviness settled over him so intense it felt borrowed. Not fear. Not panic. Sorrow. Grief so sharp it brought tears without a single thought to trigger them. And he wasn't the only one. Another investigator suddenly burst into tears, claiming she felt someone holding her hand. Maybe something tied to that shattered gravestone wanted to be heard — not with sound, but with feeling. Maybe some spirits don't speak… they share. #ghoststory #trueghoststories #paranormalinvestigation #graveyardencounter #EVPsession #realhaunting #creepyencounter #supernaturalstories #ghostteam #hauntedcemetery Love real ghost stories?
