Friends of the Rosary,Today, Friday of the Passion of the Lord, Holy Friday, or Good Friday (a deviation of the term “God's Friday), the Church observes the earthly death of our Savior. It's a solemn day of mourning, prayer, fasting, and a sense of sadness as we acknowledge our failure to serve our Lord.We slow down, restrict ourselves from entertainment, participate in processions and devotions (such as the Rosary, Stations of the Cross, and the Divine Mercy), and meditate on readings and prayers related to the passion of Christ.At three o'clock, the faithful attend the “Celebration of the Lord's Passion.” It's not a Mass but a service with three parts: Liturgy of the Word, Veneration of the Cross, and Holy Communion.At the beginning, the priests and deacons prostrate themselves in silent prayer. The General Intentions cover ten areas:For the ChurchFor the PopeFor the clergy and laity of the ChurchFor those preparing for baptismFor the unity of ChristiansFor the Jewish peopleFor those who do not believe in ChristFor those who do not believe in GodFor all in public officeFor those in special needIn part two, we venerate and kiss the wooden cross “on which hung the Savior of the world.” In part three, the congregation receives Holy Communion, and everyone departs in silence.The liturgies of the Paschal Triduum are one continuous act of worship. Yesterday, we saw Christ Jesus at the Last Supper completing the washing of the feet in all humility and instituting the Holy Eucharist and the Holy Orders. Today, at the midpoint of the Triduum of the Passion, Death, and Resurrection of the Lord, our pilgrimage comes to Calvary. Tomorrow, the Easter Vigil of Easter will begin with the Service of Light.The first reading at today's commemoration of the Passion is the fourth of Isaiah's songs of the Suffering Servant.Then we hear St. John's narrative of Christ's Passion. To protect and heal us from darkness, Christ Jesus allowed the fury of sin to destroy Him. He endured the pain of the cross bearing our sins.The Suffering Servant pleased the Father not by his agony but by being obedient to the point of death on the cross, offering his body in sacrifice to take away the sin of the world.St. Anselm said that the death of the Son reestablished the right relationship between divinity and humanity.In Jesus, with his arms outstretched on the cross, we find the redemption of our suffering. He is the source of our eternal salvation.Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.

VAST: COMMERCIAL SPACE STATIONS. BOB ZIMMERMAN BEHINDTHEBLACK.COM 1952

Want to reach out to us? Want to leave a comment or review? Want to give us a suggestion or berate Anthony? Send us a text by clicking this link!Stepping into the sacred space of Maundy Thursday, we explore the profound moments that transformed human history—the institution of the Eucharist and the priesthood during the Last Supper. As Jesus took bread and wine, declaring "This is my Body" and "This is my Blood," He established a perpetual miracle of love that continues on altars worldwide.The liturgy of Holy Thursday beautifully balances joy and sorrow. We begin with celebration—white vestments, flowers adorning the altar, the Gloria sung with organ accompaniment, and bells ringing joyfully. Yet this happiness gives way as the Blessed Sacrament is moved to the altar of repose, the church emptied, and the altar stripped—powerful symbols foreshadowing Christ's passion. The faithful are invited to keep vigil in prayer until midnight, when even this access is withdrawn as Jesus enters His imprisonment.This episode takes an unexpected personal turn as I share the story of Father Raymond Zweber, the priest who rushed to baptize me as a premature infant in an incubator on Thanksgiving Day. His quiet faith, demonstrated through tears during Stations of the Cross and years of faithful service, shaped my Catholic identity in profound ways. On this day dedicated to the priesthood, I invite you to remember and pray for the priests who've administered sacraments in your life—baptism, confession, communion. Their hands have literally brought Christ to you. Whether you're able to attend Mass today or simply make a spiritual communion, let's honor these sacred institutions that continue to nourish our faith journey through the centuries.Support the showSponsored by Recusant Cellars, an unapologetically Catholic and pro-life winery from Washington state.

Many Florida restaurants have received nods from some pretty prestigious organizations.At the same time, there's a whole other culinary scene that's equally popular—one that, sadly, will likely never be the radar of the prestigious Michelin Guide or James Beard Foundation. We're talking about food served in convenience stores, gas stations and other mom-and-pop eateries. Maybe you've eaten some amazing food in these places. Maybe you're even among the tens of thousands of people who follow our guest on social media.Anthony Gilbert, better known online as Call Anthony, has garnered a cult-like following with his video reviews of Tampa Bay's under-the-radar eateries. That standing-room-only barbecue joint? Anthony says it's got the best smoked oxtails in town. The $5 chicken wings in the sketchy-looking corner store? There's a reason why that place is always packed. If you're feeling uneasy about going inside, Anthony will show you that there's nothing to worry about.Anthony grew up in the housing projects of East Tampa, and most of his reviews highlight food spots in underprivileged neighborhoods. But his fan base is wide-reaching, helping to bring a variety of customers to small, often Black-owned businesses.Anthony stopped by the Zest studios at WUSF Public Media for a chat with Dalia Colón and Alexandria Ebron. In this conversation, he shares some of his favorite local eateries, why he believes his food reviews are resonating with the public and his plans to open a restaurant of his own. Warning: This conversation will make you hungry.

Up the carpenter went to Jerusalem, knowing full well why. It was time, HIS time, the time, the eternal time as appointed when a world changing event would happen.It was to be the end of his earthly journey, a time for the transition between the Jesus of history and the Christ of Glory.There came that time in the Garden of Gethsemane where he went to pray. He asked his disciples to participate, to watch with him, to stay awake with him. Not knowing the incredible events about to happen, they slept. But the Master prayed, communed with the Father. How wonderful the humanity of Jesus the Christ in Gethsemane. As man, he knew the incredible suffering and agony to come, the crucifixion which would happen and he prayed to the Father:LET THIS CUP PASS FROM MELet there be another way to introduce your love and saving grace rather than crucifixion. But the answer was clear, the plan in place. There would be no change.Perhaps that was the greatest expression and revelation of the WILL of God at work. The plan of salvation would begin with Him, Jesus of Nazareth so that all men might know that He was indeed the SON OF GOD.And so, in blessed surrender, the soon to be Christ of Glory uttered this incredible prayer:NOT MY WILL BUT THY WILL BE DONEOn earth even as it is in heaven. He was ready, and willing.Jesus of Nazareth loved Jerusalem as all Jews do. There stood the temple, the holiest place on earth to the Jews, the earthly abiding place of the HOLY OF HOLIES. It was ordained so by the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and it was the place, the center for the longing, the love and the passion of all Jews. Jerusalem, the one and only Jerusalem, the City of David.Jesus of Nazareth poured out His love on the city and its people so very special to him. He passionately lamented how he would love to take the city and its people under his wing and to show them what he firmly believed was the way, the truth, and the life, allnew things. There would be from God through him a new creation possible, all thingsand people born again, a fresh and vital spirituality. But before these new gifts fromGod could become universal, a tragic and horrific event must occur followed by themost miraculous and wonderful event in the history of mankind.HE had dined in Jerusalem with his disciples, a loving Last Supper to commemoratethe event to come, the celebration of his body and his blood. That communion of thedisciples and the Lord, that spiritual fellowship celebrated vicariously with bread andwine, was the end event for them but only the beginning of a lifelong celebration for us.Roman soldiers found him in Gethsemane. There came the mockery of trial andinterrogation before Pilate and Herod. The world knows of the hands–washing, therefusal to make the decision of death for a just and innocent man and the offering tothe people of a choice between Jesus of Nazareth and a convicted criminal. The crowdof course chose the criminal.Then came the walk to the cross, the VIA DOLOROSA, the way of sorrow still todaycommemorated in Jerusalem by the 12 Stations of the Cross. When His cross becametoo heavy to bear, another carried it for him. Crowds lined the way, watching andlistening, some mocking, some wailing, all perhaps sensing this was no ordinary mannor would there be any ordinary crucifixion. But none could know that the world couldchange.And so, the cruelest and most brutal death possible occurred for an innocent man, apublic crucifixion. Roman soldiers nailed Jesus of Nazareth to that wooden cross.It seems ironic indeed, does it not, that a man who lived and worked with wood died abrutal death on wood itself.He hung on that cross for hours, a criminal on each side. The sky grew dark and itwas as though the earth and all in it mourned. The Christ of Glory hung in utteragony, and the horrific pain he experienced caused Him to utter these unforgettablewords:MY GOD, MY GOD WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN MEWHY?So alone, in utter agony, feeling even that the FATHER had forsaken Him. It isimpossible to know how He felt, how awful that death must have been for Him. But Hewas man, human. We as humans like him can understand the cruelty of man and thesuffering and agony he suffered in death as many of us have. HE took on the sufferingof mankind on that Golgotha Hill. So many who loved him watched, mourned andprayed, never really knowing that this tragic crucifixion would turn into a gloriousResurrection.It seemed indeed that in that darkest moment, God Himself had departed, forsaken.Perhaps it was, as some scholars think that this Holy God could not look upon theultimate and tragic event as they were laid on him the sins of the world. On that cross, in the blood and tortured flesh of the body of the Son of God, in that death unto sin were in fact the sins of the world, all of them and all of ours. That final bloody act of remission and propitiation had to be finished. There had to be that tumultuous and cataclysmic collision of worlds, when heaven and earth became one through Him. For hours, He suffered in agony and pain. His precious body was exposed, mutilated and mocked. He was crowned in the ultimate sarcasm with a crown of thorns to mock the claim of:KING OF THE JEWS.Roman soldiers taunted him, challenging him to use His miraculous powers to come down from the cross, laughing all the while. They cast lots for his garments and treated in cavalier style this world changing event as ordinary, the crucifixion and death of yet another fanatic, yet another would be Messiah as there were so many of them in that day. Never could these men know what would happen on the third day.And so He died and as He was removed from the cross, there came mercifully and lovingly Joseph of Arimathea to claim the body, something which rarely happened in early Roman times, so that Jesus of Nazareth could be buried in His very own tomb. And there He lay as all who knew him, loved, followed and believed in Him mourned. There was perhaps that day a sense of no hope, the law so tragic that HE would never be replaced. Like doubting Thomas, none really believed what would happen that third day.But on that third day, they hurried, they ran to the tomb, the women did. They were so anxious lovingly to attend His body. Instead, they found in the tomb the Angel of the Lord. The stone which had covered the tomb had been rolled back. The event was so terrifying it overwhelmed the Roman guards. The women announced that they had come looking for Jesus of Nazareth, He who had been crucified, buried and laid in this tomb. They demanded to know who took His body. But the Angel of the Lord said to them, words which would change the world:HE IS NOT HERE HE IS RISENHE IS ALIVE. Death as we know it had no power over Him. For millions, that is impossible for us to believe. But for us who do and especially those of us never having seen, heard or been in His physical presence, we who believe the truth and reality of the Resurrection are entitled to the power and the eternal victory over death even as it was with Him. Even as He returned to the Father, so shall we at our appointed time be with Him and the Father as well. The Resurrection of Jesus Christ is not a myth, not symbolic, but the most real event in all of human history.The Apostle Paul states that the Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the most fundamental event, the crux of Christianity. If, says Paul, there was no Resurrection, then Christianity is a farce and more importantly our FAITH is in vain. If the Resurrection was myth, or symbolic and not real, actual, factual, a bodily resurrection, then our faith is in vain. But thank the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, as Paul did, that the Resurrection was real, it endures with everlasting power even now and for allveternity. OUR FAITH IS NOT IN VAIN. The tomb was empty and the empty lives of all mankind could now be filled with the power of this incredible resurrection. The words again which changed the world:HE IS NOT HERE! HE IS RISEN!And so came the Resurrection witness. The resurrected and risen Christ was seen, heard, touched, and otherwise fully experienced as living once again. There were those who doubted, demanding proof. They touched the nail pierced hands and the side pierced with that Roman spear. And they said with the words of doubting Thomas:MY LORD AND MY GODTheir eyes were opened and they recognized Him. They fellowshipped with Him and ate with Him. And He said to them “why are you disturbed and troubled.” Why do such doubts and questionings arise in your hearts? He told them to see His hands and feet and know that it is I MYSELF. No mere spirit, He said, has flesh and bones as I have. His disciples were filled with sheer joy and marvel. Their minds were open to understand Him and the Scriptures. Now said the Resurrected Christ, you are witnesses of these things. Go and preach this wonderful event and our message to all nations. He blessed them and sent them.GO YE, He said, into all of the world and preach the Gospel to everyman, to the Jew first but then to the Gentiles. TO ALL MANKIND. The saving power of the Resurrection was for everyone. So many of us doubt in some ways even today. We see through a glass darkly, said Paul. Our understanding of these things is limited, human here and now. But hereafter, we will know, really know when we see HIM:FACE TO FACEBlessed are those who have never seen and believe!There is nothing in this world like this belief, the outpouring of the saving grace of the Resurrection. The power of life and life eternal through Him is the most powerful force on earth. It comes by acceptance and an open heart, the outpouring of this transforming love. It has been my blessing and I hope and pray that you have had such an encounter with THE LIVING CHRIST, that you have experienced the forgiveness of the cross and that you have accepted and believed in the power of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. That is Easter, that is what Easter means. It is life anew, one born again. A decision to encounter is the most important decision any person can make. It changes life here and it creates life hereafter. It allows the unfolding of the Kingdom of God now and fellowship in that Kingdom for eternity. We become ONE WITH HIM now, and then forevermore.And so, we who believe sing on Easter Sunday and all year long:CHRIST THE LORD IS RISEN TODAYHALLELUJAH!Let the heavens and the earth sing with joy and praise and fill the mind and heart with the power and love of the Resurrection. May the meaning of Easter be with you always, and firmly fasten in your mind the words of the angel, the Messenger of God who stated to those women so many years ago and consequently to all mankind:HE IS NOT HERE!HE IS RISEN!Christ the Lord is in fact risen and our faith is not only NOT in vain but the greatest thing in life. As He was with them in those days following His Resurrection, so He will be with us. His words to that effect are unforgettable.HEAR ME!I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS!EVEN UNTO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH!Christ is Risen!HALLELUJAH!

The Orthodox Faith has a word describing the Incarnation that saves us all. That word is kenosis which is the self-lowering of the Word of God, by His own will entirely, that we may be raised up again. As we once again set the eyes of our soul to see Him in His Passion tonight, we consider many of the wondrous revelations from the prayer service of the Stations of the Cross showing forth just how far Christ our God lowered himself so that we might Ascend.

Patrick discusses the Catholic Church's teachings on the Jews being the chosen people and addresses listeners' emails concerning Passion readings and the depiction of the Stations of the Cross. Patrick also talks about the influence of social media on news consumption, highlighting platforms like Twitter. Patrick continues his dialog about Jew’s being the “Chosen People” (00:45) Gayle (email) - Had a exhausting conversation with a good friend last night who opposes us reading the passion on Palm Sunday. When the crowd part arrives, she says she will NOT say the words "Crucify Him." (20:18) Kim (email) – In 2023, it was proposed to outlaw talk of Jesus and Christianity in Israel. I don’t think it was approved but it is unnerving to know leadership in Israel proposed it. (This proposal went nowhere.) (31:08) Jeff - Who do the Jewish people believe that Jesus Christ is? (34:23) Robert - I don't see Mary or Joseph speaking with anyone about their angelic visitation. Was there no scandal in the eyes of the people with Mary getting pregnant since Joseph and her were betrothed? (38:22) Tony - For the first time in my life, I was at Palm Sunday Mass where they did not have the audience help with the readings. Is that okay? (41:03)

As Good Friday approaches, we pause to contemplate a profound yet often overlooked dimension of Christ's Passion—the compassion of His mother, Mary, who didn't merely witness the Crucifixion but actively participated in the redemptive sacrifice.Mary's journey of suffering began when Simeon prophesied that a sword would pierce her soul, but reached its crescendo at Calvary. There, as St. Ambrose beautifully notes, when she gazed upon her Son's wounds, "what filled her mind was not the death of this beloved son but the salvation of the world." This remarkable insight reveals how Mary transcended personal grief to embrace a mother's ultimate sacrifice—willingly offering her Son for mankind's redemption. Her tears mingled with Christ's blood in a mystical cooperation that extends salvation to all generations.The spiritual practices suggested during this meditation provide practical ways to honor Our Lady of Compassion: praying the Stabat Mater, attending Stations of the Cross, contemplating Mary's sorrows, and returning to the daily rosary if we've abandoned it. As we enter this final week of Lent, Mary's example calls us to deepen our commitment to prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. Her sorrowful yet immaculate heart offers refuge to sinners and a model of perfect conformity to God's will even in the face of unimaginable suffering.Join us in this meditation on Mary's compassion, and let her tears of love wash over your soul as we prepare for the sacred mysteries of Holy Week. Has your devotion to Our Lady grown cold? This Passion Week offers the perfect opportunity to stand with her at the foot of the Cross and rediscover the transformative power of a mother's love.Support the showSponsored by Recusant Cellars, an unapologetically Catholic and pro-life winery from Washington state.

Aries season is an interesting mix of fire and water right now, amplifying how we can align our desires with appropriate next steps. This week has a strong hazy energy signature that will start to clear up as the personal planets re-enter fire signs through the second half of April. Venus stations direct at 24 deg Pisces conjunct Saturn on April 12 just as the Libra Full Moon illuminates what is out of balance and important choicesmay be required that we need to acknowledge. Venusian themes are strong into next week, bringing our attention to decisions and communications around partnerships, friendships, relationships, finances and creative endeavors. Is it a yes or a no? You may have a change of mind, or change of heart, as Venus will also travel with Saturn for the rest of the month. Mercury re-enters Aries on April 16 and makes a conjunction to Neptune in Aries, which makes the initialsteps either ideal or confusing. But as Mercury moves away from the planet of Dreams, the motivation for fresh ideas returns and we finally feel like we've solved something.

Jason Miller - Lent is a season that helps us wake up and shake off the inertia of our lives. But how do we do that? The prayer that Jesus gives us in Matthew 6 offers some possibilities. This week, we wrestle with the practice of seeking and giving forgiveness. This teaching drew heavily from the work of Dr. Everett Worthington. Learn more about his REACH method HERE.

Patrick explores compelling insights and holds unpredictable conversations on theology and faith. He tackles theological discussions about the filioque, sharing how it affects dialogues between Catholics and Orthodox believers. Patrick also addresses the importance of spiritual advisors, the unique role of priests, and the significance of baptism across different denominations.

(00:35) Christine - Can a lay person be your spiritual advisor? (07:42) Joe - Jesus was baptized at 30. Does that mean only adults should be baptized?

(33:31) Fred – What’s the difference between Orthodox and Catholic Filioque (40:41) Marilyn - Plenary indulgence: Would saying the Stations of Cross at home count or do I need to be in Church for the indulgence? (44:13) Judy - Is offering the Mass with money as effective as offering it in my heart as in intention? (47:52)

Want to reach out to us? Want to leave a comment or review? Want to give us a suggestion or berate Anthony? Send us a text by clicking this link!Death has become something our modern world sanitizes with euphemisms and "celebrations of life." We avoid speaking directly about mortality, even among Christians. But what if our understanding of death is fundamentally flawed?The Gospel presents us with a profound truth about death – it's not the end of life, but merely a passage to something greater. When Jesus says Lazarus is merely sleeping before raising him from the dead, He's revealing something essential about our human condition. What we habitually call "life" in the natural sense isn't true life at all. True life is supernatural life, our participation in divine life.This understanding transforms everything about how we approach death. For those who die in a state of grace, "life is changed, not taken away," as the beautiful preface of the Mass for the Dead tells us. Gone is the need to fear or avoid the subject of mortality. Instead, we can speak openly with our children about death, pray for those in their final agony, and remember that a "happy death" has nothing to do with physical comfort and everything to do with spiritual readiness.During these final weeks of Lent, let's reclaim these powerful spiritual truths. Make time for devotions like the Stations of the Cross, especially on Fridays. Listen to the haunting beauty of the Stabat Mater. Most importantly, cultivate those daily practices that keep us mindful of our mortality without succumbing to fear: make an act of acceptance regarding your own death, foster the virtue of hope, pray for those approaching death, and remember the faithful departed through prayer, Masses, and indulgences.What state do you hope to be in when your final moment comes? How might embracing rather than avoiding the reality of death transform your daily life?

The crew chat about the Corsair and speculate on the other three ships that are on their way.

If a gorilla could understand the Gospel through sign language, could it be saved? We explore this unusual but fascinating question, plus why St. Philomena's feast was removed, the Church's view on devotionals, and how to approach celibacy in unexpected life situations. Questions Covered:  03:38 – How can I invite my college Newman Center to a seder dinner as part of an interfaith event? 08:32 – Why was St. Philomena's feast day removed from the Roman Calendar? 12:38 – If a person could evangelize via sign language to a gorilla, could the gorilla be saved? 24:33 – Does the Church have a stance on devotionals that seem to put words in God's mouth? 32:05 – How do I respond to the claim that situations like David and the bread of the temple or Jesus' disciples eating on the sabbath should be applied to same-sex relationships? 42:46 – Catechism 1658 talks about single persons — not by choice, but by life circumstance–; is God calling them to celibacy? If God is all-knowing, why would He call people to a vocation they can't fulfill? 49:00 – What is the threshold for the Church to make a public excommunication of an individual(s) spreading hatred explicitly or implicitly and claiming the Catholic faith informs their hateful worldview? 52:21 – Where does St. Veronica come from? Why are there three times Christ falls in the Stations when the Bible says he fell once?
