You're riding along with Kaitlyn Raitz as she breaks down the real mechanics of touring at scale: staying human on a bus, finding tiny routines that keep you sane, and surviving the sleep math when you're one of twelve buses on a massive run. Then it's straight into the onstage reality of modern country arena production: 24 musicians, a full string quartet, choir, and horns, plus the challenge of making strings translate in a loud arena. You get the practical gear-and-tech layer too: DPA mics and pickups, dynamic EQ, managing cello loudness, and how tools like ToneDexter fit into keeping tone consistent when the room is working against you. You also get the career side, unfiltered: how the Eric Church gig happened through the Nashville relationship web, why being excellent and easy to be around matters, and why “Nashville is a ten-year town” if you want longevity. Kaitlyn's stories span arranging and learning charts mid-tour from iPads, to the whiplash of getting a Grammy call with barely any runway, to recording in LA and wondering how anyone actually functions there. The episode closes with the mindset and performance skills that keep pros durable: protecting your brain and nervous system, flipping a stage persona on and off, and the practical win of transitioning to IEMs for a cellist when monitors are run well. Bottom line: this is how you keep your craft sharp, your head steady, and your show consistent night after night.

[2] 4 Whatever house you enter, stay there until you leave. 5 If they do not welcome you, when you leave that town, shake off the dust from your feet as a testimony against them.” 6 They set out and went throughout the villages, proclaiming the good news and healing everywhere. Recalling the Death of John the Baptist 7 Herod the tetrarch heard about everything that was happening, and he was quite puzzled because some said that John had risen from the dead. 8 Others said that Elijah had appeared, and still others that one of the ancient prophets had risen. 9 But Herod said, “I beheaded John, but who is this, about whom I hear such great things?” So he wanted to see him. Jesus Feeds More Than Five Thousand 10 The apostles returned and told Jesus what they had done. He took them and withdrew privately to a town called Bethsaida. 11 But when the crowds found out, they followed him. He welcomed them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God. He also healed those who needed healing. 12 As the day began to draw to a close, the Twelve came and said to him, “Dismiss the crowd so that they can go to the surrounding villages and farms to find lodging and food, because we are in a deserted place here.” 13 But he said to them, “You give them something to eat.” “We have no more than five loaves and two fish,” they replied, “unless we go and buy food for all these people.” 14 (There were about five thousand men.) He said to his disciples, “Have them sit down in groups of about fifty each.” 15 They did so and got them all to sit down. 16 Then Jesus took the five loaves and the two fish, and, looking up to heaven, he blessed and broke them. Then he kept giving them to the disciples to set before the crowd. 17 They all ate and were satisfied. And they picked up twelve basketfuls of the broken pieces that were left over.

Pastor Jon Verwey Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind. — Ecclesiastes 12:13 NIV The way of the Kingdom is not striving for greatness through power and control but choosing last place through humility and service. 30 They left that place and passed through Galilee. Jesus did not want anyone to know where they were, 31 because he was teaching his disciples. He said to them, “The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men. They will kill him, and after three days he will rise.” 32 But they did not understand what he meant and were afraid to ask him about it. 33 They came to Capernaum. When he was in the house, he asked them, “What were you arguing about on the road?” 34 But they kept quiet because on the way they had argued about who was the greatest. — Mark 9:30–34 NIV 35 Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, “Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all.” 36 He took a little child whom he placed among them. Taking the child in his arms, he said to them, 37 “Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me does not welcome me but the one who sent me.” — Mark 9:35–37 NIV “If anyone wants to be first, he must be last… and servant of all.” 38 “Teacher,” said John, “we saw someone driving out demons in your name and we told him to stop, because he was not one of us.” 39 “Do not stop him,” Jesus said. “For no one who does a miracle in my name can in the next moment say anything bad about me, 40 for whoever is not against us is for us. 41 Truly I tell you, anyone who gives you a cup of water in my name because you belong to the Messiah will certainly not lose their reward. — Mark 9:38–41 NIV “…those who face the mess they've made of their lives, repent of it, and trust [Jesus] as Lord and Savior [will] receive eternal life — something far beyond anything humanity can manufacture.” — Professor John Lennox The way of the Kingdom is not striving for greatness through power and control but choosing last place through humility and service.
The insurance policies started in 2015. By 2017, prosecutors say Kouri Richins had positioned nearly $2 million on her husband Eric's life—without his knowledge. When he discovered her alleged financial fraud in 2020, he met with a divorce attorney. Eighteen months later, he was dead.Robin Dreeke spent his FBI career reading the behavioral patterns that precede violence. His "Life Arc" framework asks not just what someone did, but what made them capable of it. In this Hidden Killers conversation, we apply that framework to the Kouri Richins case—examining the prosecution's timeline through the eyes of someone trained to assess threats before they materialize.The compressed timeline is what stands out. Prosecutors allege Kouri obtained fentanyl on February 11, 2022. On Valentine's Day, they say she left a poisoned sandwich in Eric's truck—he survived. On February 26th, she allegedly went back to her supplier asking for "something stronger." By March 4th, Eric was gone. Robin explains what that escalation pattern reveals about psychological state—and why a failed attempt typically increases rather than decreases risk.But the foundation was laid years before. Financial fraud. Falsified documents. A Power of Attorney Eric never signed. When he confronted her in 2020, something shifted. Robin breaks down what happens to someone's behavioral baseline when their deception is exposed and divorce becomes a real threat.Trial begins February 23rd. Five weeks. Twelve jurors. This conversation provides the behavioral lens for understanding the patterns they'll see—the years of positioning, the escalation, and the trajectory that allegedly led to a Moscow Mule laced with five times the lethal dose of fentanyl.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Cameras everywhere. GPS in every phone. Digital footprints on every transaction. We're told it's impossible to disappear in the modern world. Nancy Guthrie's case says otherwise. Twelve days missing. More than a hundred investigators. Eighteen thousand tips. And still — no vehicle of interest, no named suspects, no confirmed sighting since she was last inside her own home in Catalina Foothills.Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke — twenty-one-year Bureau veteran who served as Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program — breaks down what this case reveals about the gap between the surveillance world we think we live in and the one we actually live in. He explains what a successful extraction from a residential property would require, why the blind spots in our security infrastructure are wider than most people realize, what the absence of a vehicle of interest actually signals to investigators, and why Nancy's doorbell camera, pacemaker app, and family proximity didn't prevent what happened.Then Dreeke addresses the human element that may ultimately determine whether this case is solved. Eighteen thousand tips have flooded the investigation, but the one that matters most hasn't come in. Dreeke explains the psychology behind witness silence — why people who have relevant information don't come forward, how loyalty and denial create barriers even when someone knows they should call, the difference between a witness who hasn't connected the dots and one who is actively shielding someone, and what finally tips that balance. He speaks directly to whoever out there has been sitting on a piece of this story, explaining what it would take to get them to pick up the phone today. Because someone knows something. They just haven't said it yet.All individuals discussed are presumed innocent until proven guilty.#NancyGuthrie #RobinDreeke #FBIExpert #HowToDisappear #WitnessPsychology #SavannahGuthrie #MissingPerson #TipLine #TrueCrimeToday #CatalinaFoothillsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Full Text of Readings First Sunday of Lent Lectionary: 22 The Saint of the day is Chair of Saint Peter The Story of the Chair of Saint Peter This feast commemorates Christ's choosing Peter to sit in his place as the servant-authority of the whole Church. After the “lost weekend” of pain, doubt, and self-torment, Peter hears the Good News. Angels at the tomb say to Magdalene, “The Lord has risen! Go, tell his disciples and Peter.” John relates that when he and Peter ran to the tomb, the younger outraced the older, then waited for him. Peter entered, saw the wrappings on the ground, the headpiece rolled up in a place by itself. John saw and believed. But he adds a reminder: “…[T]hey did not yet understand the scripture that he had to rise from the dead” (John 20:9). They went home. There the slowly exploding, impossible idea became reality. Jesus appeared to them as they waited fearfully behind locked doors. “Peace be with you,” he said (John 20:21b), and they rejoiced. The Pentecost event completed Peter's experience of the risen Christ. “…[T]hey were all filled with the holy Spirit” (Acts 2:4a) and began to express themselves in foreign tongues and make bold proclamation as the Spirit prompted them. Only then can Peter fulfill the task Jesus had given him: “… [O]nce you have turned back, you must strengthen your brothers” (Luke 22:32). He at once becomes the spokesman for the Twelve about their experience of the Holy Spirit—before the civil authorities who wished to quash their preaching, before the Council of Jerusalem, for the community in the problem of Ananias and Sapphira. He is the first to preach the Good News to the Gentiles. The healing power of Jesus in him is well attested: the raising of Tabitha from the dead, the cure of the crippled beggar. People carry the sick into the streets so that when Peter passed his shadow might fall on them. Even a saint experiences difficulty in Christian living. When Peter stopped eating with Gentile converts because he did not want to wound the sensibilities of Jewish Christians, Paul says, “…I opposed him to his face because he clearly was wrong…. [T]hey were not on the right road in line with the truth of the gospel…” (Galatians 2:11b, 14a). At the end of John's Gospel, Jesus says to Peter, “Amen, amen, I say to you, when you were younger, you used to dress yourself and go where you wanted; but when you grow old, you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go” (John 21:18). What Jesus said indicated the sort of death by which Peter was to glorify God. On Vatican Hill, in Rome, during the reign of Nero, Peter did glorify his Lord with a martyr's death, probably in the company of many Christians. Second-century Christians built a small memorial over his burial spot. In the fourth century, the Emperor Constantine built a basilica, which was replaced in the 16th century. Reflection Like the committee chair, the chair refers to the occupant, not the furniture. Its first occupant stumbled a bit, denying Jesus three times and hesitating to welcome gentiles into the new Church. But, as we know, he turned toward the light. Some of its later occupants have also stumbled a bit, sometimes even failed scandalously. As individuals, we may sometimes think a particular pope has let us down. Still, the office endures as a sign of the long tradition we cherish and as a focus for the universal Church.Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media
Twelve jurors will watch Kouri Richins for five weeks starting February 23rd. FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke provides the framework for reading what they'll see—the tells that separate genuine emotion from performance, and where sustained deception starts to break.Today's focus: Kouri's behavior after Eric's death. The 911 call where she reported him unresponsive. The media interviews during the investigation. The children's book Are You With Me?—featuring Eric as an angel-winged father—promoted on television in March 2023, two months before her arrest. And the "Walk the Dog" letter prosecutors found in her jail cell, allegedly scripting false testimony for her mother and brother.Robin's "Tempo Tells" framework examines exactly this kind of evidence. What verbal patterns in a 911 call reveal authenticity versus performance? What does choosing to perform grief publicly—through a book tour, through television appearances—signal about someone's confidence in their own constructed narrative? And critically, what happens to deception architecture under three years of sustained legal pressure?The 911 call is clinical material for investigators. Robin explains what they listen for: tempo deviations, detail calibration, emotional markers. Emergency situations are high-stress environments where performance is difficult to maintain.The jail letter changes the analysis. When someone continues orchestrating narrative from behind bars—allegedly scripting specific testimony for family members—what does that reveal about their relationship with truth? Robin breaks down how that kind of evidence typically impacts jurors.Five weeks of testimony begin this Sunday. Understanding how to read behavior in that courtroom matters.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

When Bad Dentistry Is a Cry for Help: Why Dental Professionals Need to Look DeeperA dentist posts about a colleague's terrible work on Facebook. Dozens of comments pile on. Dr. Allison House was the only one who asked a different question: What if that dentist is struggling?In this episode, Dr. House and Shawn Zajas confront one of the most uncomfortable truths in the dental profession. When you see consistently poor clinical work from a colleague, the default response is judgment and criticism. But what if bad dentistry is a symptom of something deeper? Substance abuse. Depression. Financial crisis. Personal tragedy. Burnout.Dr. House shares three real stories from her 26 years in practice that reframe everything:00:00 Intro 04:23 What community do you want to be part of? 17:50 Things aren't always as they seem 20:09 The Facebook post that started everything 22:18 Dentist Concern for Dentist: Arizona's intervention model 24:07 One bad crown is human. Twelve bad crowns is a signal. 26:55 The dentist who went to rehab (and never knew who called) 28:30 "We never give each other any space to be human" 29:08 When patients and team members act out of character 31:36 The care package that changed a team member's trajectory 33:46 When dementia explains the behavior 36:11 Byron Katie's "The Work" and how it applies to dental practice 38:30 Wrap-upOne story involves a colleague whose patients kept showing up with bad work. When a patient reported smelling alcohol on that dentist's breath, Dr. House called Arizona's Dentist Concern for Dentist program. Trained professionals visited the colleague and confirmed a serious addiction. He went to rehab. Dr. House says plainly: "I'm pretty sure that had he continued down that road, he would have died."Another story hits closer to home. Dr. House once told a patient that a famous colleague's work was terrible. Then she tried to redo it. Same result. The patient was nearly impossible to work on. The lesson: bad outcomes are not always bad dentistry.The conversation goes beyond dentists. Dr. House describes a team member whose personality changed overnight. Her daughter had entered a treatment facility, leaving her to raise her granddaughter while processing grief. Instead of termination, Dr. House responded with a care package. She talks about a 15-year patient whose inappropriate jokes turned out to be early-stage dementia, not character failure.Shawn and Dr. House also walk through Byron Katie's "Judge Your Neighbor" exercise, a practical tool for examining your assumptions before reacting. It is a method Dr. House uses regularly in her practice and personal life to see situations from the other person's perspective.The takeaway is clear: one bad day is human. A pattern of bad days is a signal. And the right response is care, not condemnation.ABOUT THE AUTHENTIC DENTIST PODCASTThe Authentic Dentist Podcast bridges the gap between clinical excellence and personal fulfillment in dentistry.

Jesus entered the Pharisee's house and reclined at the table. 37 Just then a sinful woman from that town learned that he was reclining in the Pharisee's house. She brought an alabaster jar of perfume, 38 stood behind him near his feet weeping, and began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she began to wipe them with her hair while also kissing his feet and anointing them with the perfume. 39 When the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, he would realize who is touching him and what kind of woman she is, because she is a sinner.” 40 Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” He said, “Teacher, say it.” 41 “A certain moneylender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, [1] and the other fifty. 42 When they could not pay, he forgave them both. So, which of them will love him more?” 43 Simon answered, “I suppose the one who had the larger debt forgiven.” Then he told him, “You have judged correctly.” 44 Turning toward the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered your house, but you did not give me water for my feet. Yet she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. 45 You did not give me a kiss, but she, from the time I entered, has not stopped kissing my feet. 46 You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with perfume. 47 Therefore I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven; that is why she loved so much. But the one who is forgiven little loves little.” 48 Then Jesus said to her, “Your sins have been forgiven.” 49 Those reclining at the table with him began to say among themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?” 50 He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.” Preaching the Gospel Luke 8 1 Soon afterward Jesus was traveling from one town and village to another, preaching and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God. The Twelve were with him 2 and also some women who had been healed of evil spirits and diseases: Mary, called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out; 3 Joanna, the wife of Cuza, Herod's household manager; Susanna; and many others who provided support for them [2] out of their own possessions.

Join us for our third annual Ash Wednesday. A day when we remember that we are made of dust but we are also destined for glory! A day that marks a season where we seek to even more intentionally 'put off the old man' and 'put on the new man' as we journey toward Resurrection Sunday (Eph. 4:22). Twelve times in Scripture we learn about 'forty day periods' where some great transformational or victorious event takes place. Join us as we learn about these events, consider what sort of disciplines we might want to engage in over the next forty days, and participate in 'ash ceremony' where we are reminded of our mortality and the necessity of depending on Christ within!

What holds a house together when the pressure mounts? We follow a clear line from Jesus's rebuke—“How can Satan cast out Satan?”—to the everyday fractures that threaten marriages, churches, and civic life. When Jesus says a kingdom or family divided cannot stand, he isn't offering a slogan; he's diagnosing the cause of collapse and pointing to the cure: authority rightly used and unity grounded in the good.We walk through Mark 3 as crowds surge, demons cry out, and Jesus appoints the Twelve with real authority to preach and to free. Along the way, we unpack the “strong man” parable and why Christ's strength must be the center that binds what would tear us apart—resentment in a marriage, fear in a community, or corruption in leadership. A sober warning against blaspheming the Holy Spirit reminds us not to slander God's work when it confronts our comfort.From there we slow down with Psalm 37—trust, do good, be still—and give anger its proper place: nowhere near the driver's seat. Proverbs adds grit with a call to diligent work and honest effort. We honor the courage of Herschel “Pete” Bryles, whose bravery under fire pictures authority as self-giving service. Then we engage Jonathan Mayhew's reading of Romans 13 to clarify a common mistake: Christians honor rulers as servants for the good, not as masters beyond question. When authority rewards evil and punishes good, it abandons its mandate—and we respond with principled, peaceful resistance while continuing to do what is right.Expect a blend of Scripture, history, and practical counsel: how to build unity in your home, how to spot counterfeit authority, and how to stand firm without becoming hard.

Jesus enjoined them, “Watch out, guard against the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.” They concluded among themselves that it was because they had no bread. When He became aware of this He said to them, “Why do you conclude that it is because you have no bread? Do you not yet understand or comprehend? Are your hearts hardened? Do you have eyes and not see, ears and not hear? And do you not remember, when I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many wicker baskets full of fragments you picked up?” They answered Him, “Twelve.” “When I broke the seven loaves for the four thousand, how many full baskets of fragments did you pick up?” They answered him, “Seven.” He said to them, “Do you still not understand?” Memorial of the Seven Founders of the Order of Servites, Religious Seven Founders, pray for us!

Pastoral Reflections Finding God In Ourselves by Msgr. Don Fischer
Gospel Mark 8:14-21 The disciples had forgotten to bring bread, and they had only one loaf with them in the boat. Jesus enjoined them, "Watch out, guard against the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod." They concluded among themselves that it was because they had no bread. When he became aware of this he said to them, "Why do you conclude that it is because you have no bread? Do you not yet understand or comprehend? Are your hearts hardened? Do you have eyes and not see, ears and not hear? And do you not remember, when I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many wicker baskets full of fragments you picked up?" They answered him, "Twelve." "When I broke the seven loaves for the four thousand, how many full baskets of fragments did you pick up?" They answered him, "Seven." He said to them, "Do you still not understand?” Reflection In many ways the disciples are revealed in the Scriptures as people who don't really get it. You know, who don't have a clue. But you have to understand that what Jesus is saying is really so radically new. They knew religion, they knew the temple, they knew its corruption. They didn't expect it to do much for them. And now Jesus is creating a new kingdom, the kingdom of Heaven, on earth. And it's all about something that nurtures and develops and feeds. And so he's longing for his disciples to understand this. So he uses signs and symbols and stories and parables. And he just simply gets frustrated because they don't understand. They don't yet know how to listen to the way he teaches, to ponder the images, to wonder, and to imagine something radically different than what they've known when it comes to religion. Closing Prayer Father, everything that you have created in the world is for us. Even the negative things or those things that remind us of what we don't want to be a part of. So open our eyes and our hearts and our ears. So we can feed on the nurturing love and the nurturing wisdom you share with us. And we ask this in Jesus' name, Amen. Learn more about your ad choices.

This episode is brought to you by B2B Better. Stop sending "just checking in" emails. We build owned media systems that give your sales team actual reasons to reach out, turning podcasts into sales enablement assets that move deals forward. If your sales reps send "just checking in" emails to prospects who've gone quiet, this episode explains why those fail and what to do instead. Host Jason Bradwell breaks down how to create milestone moments, legitimate, value-led reasons to reach out through long sales cycles without sounding desperate. Jason's core point is clear: most B2B sales cycles are brutally long, but sales teams don't know how to stay present without being annoying. The traditional approach fails. Discovery call, proposal sent, then "just checking in" emails with no response. Twelve months later, the prospect went with a competitor because "you didn't understand our business." After month two, you had nothing valuable to say. 95% of B2B Better's clients have sales cycles over six months. And 95% of your customers are out of market at any given time. Your job is to stay present so when they flip to being in market, they think of you first. Most owned media falls apart here. Marketing creates beautiful content. Sales sees it but has no idea how to use it in actual sales motion. Marketing measures downloads. Sales measures meetings. Different languages, different outcomes. Milestone moments fix this. Month one: send proposal plus a podcast clip addressing their exact challenge. Month three: benchmark report. Month four: webinar invite. Month five: customer story. Month six: check in with context. Months seven to twelve: new episodes create new reasons to reach out. Month eighteen: deal closes because you felt like a partner. B2B Better's sales enablement kits deliver three clips with email copy, key graphics, follow-up sequences, and tags showing which funnel stage each piece serves. One innovation: sales stitch videos where reps record 30-second reactions to clips. Personal brands beat company brands these generate thousands of views when originals get hundreds. This works with three things: marketing-sales alignment through quarterly planning, infrastructure for sales to contribute to production, and attribution through CRM tracking plus conversations about where content surfaces in deals. Chapter Markers 00:00 - The "just checking in" problem that kills deals 01:00 - Context on long sales cycles and 95% out-of-market buyers 02:00 - Why owned media strategies fall apart at sales activation 03:00 - Traditional approach: proposal to dead deal in 12 months 04:00 - Milestone moments approach: 18-month cycle done right 06:00 - What qualifies as a milestone moment 07:00 - Timing and sequencing content to the buyer journey 08:00 - Sales enablement kit components 09:00 - Tags and metadata for searchable, attributable content 10:00 - Sales stitch videos: personalising content at scale 11:00 - Why personal brands beat company brands in B2B 12:00 - Three requirements: alignment between teams 13:00 - Infrastructure for sales to contribute to production 14:00 - Attribution: quantitative and qualitative tracking 15:00 - The challenge: audit your last five gone-quiet emails Useful Links Connect with Jason Bradwell on LinkedIn Read the Ehrenberg-Bass 95-5 rule research Explore HubSpot CRM for tracking content touches Check out Salesforce CRM Explore B2B Better website and the Pipe Dream podcast

Twelve miles north of Wichita, a small bridge over Jester Creek has become one of Kansas's most persistent “Crybaby Bridge” legends. Locals call it Theorosa's Bridge, a place where people claim cars stall, radios crackle into static, and a chilling presence answers back if you perform the ritual. This episode traces how a simple rural crossing became a container for grief, fear, and community storytelling, where history, rumor, and repetition blur into something that feels real...especially after midnight.YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@HauntedAmericanHistory hauntedamericanhistory.com Patreon- https://www.patreon.com/hauntedamericanhistory LINKS FOR MY DEBUT NOVEL, THE FORGOTTEN BOROUGH Barnes and Noble - https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-forgotten-borough-christopher-feinstein/1148274794?ean=9798319693334 AMAZON: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FQPQD68S Ebook GOOGLE: https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=S5WCEQAAQBAJ&pli=1 KOBO: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/the-forgotten-borough-2?sId=a10cf8af-5fbd-475e-97c4-76966ec87994&ssId=DX3jihH_5_2bUeP1xoje_ SMASHWORD: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/1853316 !!

Homily: The Prodigal Son, The Lost Sheep, and the RavenFr. Marc BoulosSunday, February 8, 2026In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.Today's Gospel (Luke 15:11-32) forms a diptych with the parable of the Lost Sheep (Luke 15:3-7), which unfortunately is used systematically by the followers of Epstein, or, more accurately, by those captivated by the mentality of Epstein ecclesiology: the business model of church growth that treats the neighbor as a commodity.Which is everyone.Because if you are an American, or a European, or anyone who subscribes to the ideology of the elite class, the success ideology, the growth ideology, the manifestation ideology, you ultimately view your neighbor as property, as lesser, as acquisition. Or, as Satan has taught the Church in the West to say, you refer to your neighbor as a “giving unit.” It is a disgusting phrase.No less ugly than what they used to say when I was a child. They claimed to count souls, but they were counting giving units.Now, the key to hearing the parable of the Lost Sheep is to hear the accusation of the Pharisees and the scribes that prompted the parable, and to hear it in the context of Noah, which governs Luke. Jesus gives the parable of the Lost Sheep because he is accused of receiving:“This man receives sinners and eats with them.” (Luke 15:2)That is the key. He is accused of receiving sinners. What is returned to him from the wilderness is what is received.The prodigal, as you should know by now, is not praised for coming back. He simply returns. The parable of the Lost Sheep is about instruction, about remaining under command whether inside the fold or outside it. This is what is at stake when the follower says “No.”It is also what is at stake with the two birds in the account of the flood. You have a raven (Genesis 8:7) and you have a dove (Genesis 8:8-12).For those of you who study what I teach, you know the significance of the raven. For those who do not, the work is here. The rest is between you and God.In Hebrew, the word often associated with the raven is derived from three consonants, ʿayin, resh, bet. It refers to a migratory, nomadic bird, associated with the locality of the ʿArabah, the Syro-Arabian wilderness known to you as Mesopotamia, encompassing Lebanon, Syria, Palestine, and Iraq. The raven is nomadic in a very specific biblical sense. It pertains to peoples who mix among tribes and who come out at night. These are the tribes that fed Elijah. That is the raven Noah sends out.The word used is “release.” It corresponds to the same verb Jesus uses when he sends out the Twelve to proclaim the judgment of the Kingdom in Luke chapter 9, verse 2. He releases them under instruction.What is interesting is that this corresponds to the usage of the word “Bedouin” in the Qur'an. You have heard me speak about Bedouins, and many of you assume I am speaking about Arab culture. I could not care less about culture. I am speaking about Scripture.The Bedouins appear in the Bible and in the Qur'an, and they have a function. In Genesis 8:6-12, Noah sends out the raven before the Lord breaks his silence. The Lord had not spoken since the flood began, when he shut the ark with his own hand behind Noah (Genesis 7:16). He does not speak again until Genesis 8:15. There is release from Noah, but there is no command from God. The raven goes out into a world not yet ordered by divine speech. Noah releases the raven into disorder in anticipation of God's instruction, which alone can establish order. The same is true of the dove. Both are sent out, released in hope that they might return. It is not demanded. It is a free gesture. That is how it works.In this absence, the dove's return unfolds within divine silence, not compelled by a new command but moving in anticipation of the word by which God alone restores order. The decisive reality is the command of God, not human initiative.The prodigal, sitting on the dung heap, cannot boast, “I came back.” He came back because he was hungry. In the house of the Father, every voice is silenced before the obedience of Jesus (Philippians 2:6-11).In the Qur'an, the striking thing about the Bedouins is their obstinacy. (Rise, Andalus, p. 53; Sūrat al-Tawbah, “The Repentance, The Return” 9:97) They exist on the edge. That is why this question of sinners among the peoples on the boundaries, in the night watches, matters. Those are the ones Jesus receives. That is what angers the Pharisees and the scribes in Luke. Those whom they despise, the ravens, exist on the edge, beyond the proclamation of what is read aloud. And now they are stepping within range of that proclamation.The word Qur'an means “what is read aloud,” the proclamation of the word of God. It is rooted in Arabic, a Semitic tongue like Hebrew. Those on the margins live beyond the reach of that proclamation. The lost are released, sometimes under instruction, sometimes in hope of the instruction that alone can call them back.So for Jesus, the concern is whether the sinners and the tax collectors are within reach of the proclamation. What is truly problematic is that the scribes and Pharisees complain when the prodigals return from the edges to hear what Jesus is announcing.That is the issue.But the problem with the Epstein business model of church growth is that it does not care what Jesus is saying. In that model, the neighbor is a giving unit. So it cannot let the prodigal go.In the parable of The Prodigal (Luke 15:11-32), the father never compels the son to return. In Paul's teaching, you are never permitted to force someone to remain married to you (1 Corinthians 7:15). It is forbidden. This teaching carries over into the Qur'an as well: you are not allowed to compel anyone (Sūrat al-Baqarah 2:256; see also 4:19; 2:231).But in the Epstein model of church growth, it does not work that way. In that model, it is the opposite of what we heard today, namely, that your body does not belong to you:“You are not your own.” (1 Corinthians 6:19)The body to which Paul refers is the body politic of Jesus Christ. You are not permitted to sin against it for profit. You may not exploit any living soul for gain, least of all your own. Not according to the parable of the Lost Sheep.According to that same instruction, a sheep may be sent away and allowed to go until it heeds the call and returns, and is then received with joy according to the command, but never chased or coerced. Some sheep may even be handed over to Satan for a time, unto destruction, if they jeopardize the fold (1 Corinthians 5:5;1 Timothy 1:20). But not in the Epstein model of church growth, which cares only about security, growth, and success.God does not care about buildings, institutions, or church growth. He does not care about constitutions, or borders, or nations, or tribes. He cares about your living, breathing, precious soul.“For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul? For what can a man give in return for his soul?” (Mark 8:36-37)I am not God. But I am responsible to teach what God has commanded us to teach.May we submit to God's instruction like the dove, returning in hope of the word by which God alone establishes order.To him alone be the glory, the dominion, and the majesty, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen....
How Do You Know If Your Faith Is Real? | Christ For YouText: Luke 18:31–43 | Quinquagesima (The Healing of the Blind Beggar)Most people say they believe. They know the words. They know the stories. They know the Lutheran slogans. But what if you can be close to Jesus and still miss Him, like the disciples did? What is true, saving faith? What makes faith faith? And how do you know you actually have it?Jesus answers on the road to Jerusalem. He tells the Twelve, with terrifying clarity, that He will suffer, be killed, and rise again, and they cannot “put it together.” They expect glory, not a cross. But a blind beggar sees what they don't. He hears the promise, confesses Jesus as the Son of David, and cries out for mercy. That is saving faith: the heart's confidence in God's mercy for Christ's sake, clinging to the crucified and risen Savior “for you.”And the comfort is stronger than the doubt: Jesus still stops. He still hears the cry for mercy. He still gives what He promises through His Word, forgiveness, and His gifts. If you want to know whether your faith is real, don't stare inward. Look to Christ where He has promised to be for you.Subscribe & Share:Spotify: Christ For YouPortuguês: Cristo Para VocêWebsite: ZionWG.orgLooking for a Lutheran Church near you?

This month, Erik and Kyle are looking at the Capaldi era's first true heavy hitter, Series 8, episode 4, "Listen," as written by Steven Moffat. Twelve years after the episode first aired, how do the strange tone, sparse plotting, and complex character implications hold up? Is Rupert/Danny/Orson(?) Pink sitting well with us this go-round? And what DOES scare everyone in the universe?
Cameras on every doorbell. GPS tracking in every phone. Digital footprints everywhere. We assume the surveillance world we live in makes vanishing impossible.Nancy Guthrie proves otherwise.Twelve days into this investigation. More than a hundred investigators. FBI resources deployed. Eighteen thousand tips. And an eighty-four-year-old woman with a doorbell camera, a pacemaker app, and family nearby is gone without a trace. No vehicle of interest. No named suspects. Nothing.Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke spent twenty-one years in counterintelligence — a world where people professionally try to avoid detection. He served as Chief of the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. He knows the blind spots because he spent his career watching people exploit them.In this interview, Dreeke confronts the question this case demands: how does someone vanish in 2026? What are the gaps in the surveillance architecture we trust? What would an extraction from a home like Nancy's actually require? And what does this case reveal about the difference between the security we think we have and the security that actually exists?We're told you can't disappear anymore.

We live in the most surveilled moment in human history. Cameras on every doorbell. GPS in every phone. License plate readers on every highway. We're told if you commit a crime, you'll be caught.Nancy Guthrie had a Nest camera. A pacemaker app. Family nearby. And she's gone. Twelve days. No vehicle of interest. No suspects. No trace.Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke ran the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. He spent twenty-one years watching people try to move without being detected — and understanding how the gaps in our surveillance architecture get exploited.In this interview, Dreeke breaks down how someone vanishes in 2026. What the blind spots actually look like. What an extraction like this would require. Why there's no confirmed transportation method. And what this case reveals about the difference between the security we assume we have and what actually exists.The public believes surveillance protects us. This case challenges that assumption. Dreeke explains what we're missing — and what it should teach law enforcement about the vulnerabilities we don't see.#NancyGuthrie #RobinDreeke #HiddenKillers #SurveillanceGaps #FBIExpert #HowToDisappear #SavannahGuthrie #MissingPerson #CatalinaFoothills #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

With Matt Damon & Ben Affleck's The Rip now on Netflix, Greg, Aaron, & Jon CONTINUE their Bourne Marathon, giving their Jason Bourne Reaction, Recap, Breakdown, Commentary, Analysis & Spoiler Review! Greg Alba, Aaron Alexander, and Jon Maturan react to Jason Bourne (2016), the long-awaited return of Matt Damon to the role that redefined modern spy thrillers. Directed by Paul Greengrass (The Bourne Supremacy, Captain Phillips) and written by Greengrass and Christopher Rouse, the film reunites the creative team behind the franchise's most intense entries while updating its themes for the digital surveillance age. Set years after the events of The Bourne Ultimatum, the story finds Jason Bourne (Matt Damon – Good Will Hunting, The Martian, The Departed) living off the grid until former CIA operative Nicky Parsons (Julia Stiles – 10 Things I Hate About You, Save the Last Dance) uncovers new classified information about his father and the origins of the Treadstone program. Their discovery puts Bourne back in the crosshairs of CIA Director Robert Dewey (Tommy Lee Jones – The Fugitive, No Country for Old Men) and ambitious cyber-operations specialist Heather Lee (Alicia Vikander – Ex Machina, The Danish Girl), while a deadly assassin known only as The Asset (Vincent Cassel – Black Swan, Ocean's Twelve) is deployed to eliminate him.

Read OnlineIn those days when there again was a great crowd without anything to eat, Jesus summoned the disciples and said, “My heart is moved with pity for the crowd, because they have been with me now for three days and have nothing to eat. If I send them away hungry to their homes, they will collapse on the way, and some of them have come a great distance.” Mark 8:1–3Early in Jesus' public ministry, He made a brief trip across the Sea of Galilee to the territory of the Gerasenes—a largely Gentile and pagan town on the outskirts of the Decapolis. This journey was significant, as it demonstrated Jesus' intention to extend His mission beyond the boundaries of Jewish territory, foreshadowing the universal scope of salvation that would later be fully realized through the Church's apostolic mission.When Jesus arrived on shore in the territory of the Gerasenes, He freed a man possessed by “Legion,” meaning many demons, and sent the demons into a herd of two thousand swine, who drowned themselves in the sea. Although this was the only recorded act Jesus performed during that initial visit, it caused quite a commotion. When the swineherds saw this, they ran and reported the incident to the nearby town, and people came to see it for themselves. Stunned by what had happened, they asked Jesus to leave, and He did. However, “the man went off and began to proclaim in the Decapolis what Jesus had done for him; and all were amazed” (Mark 5:20).That brief trip into the Gentile and pagan territory of the Decapolis planted a seed. The loss of two thousand swine undoubtedly affected the people, but it also planted the seed more deeply. Which was more important: one man possessed by a legion of demons or two thousand swine? Jesus' actions reveal the answer. As word spread of His miraculous deliverance and authority over demons, many Gentiles became curious.That brief miracle set the stage for today's Gospel when Jesus returned to the Decapolis to nurture the seed He had planted. Upon His return, He cured a deaf and mute man, symbolizing the importance of hearing and proclaiming the Gospel. Afterwards, Jesus drew a great crowd, who remained with Him for three days despite having no food.After three days, Jesus revealed His compassionate heart to the Twelve: “My heart is moved with pity for the crowd, because they have been with me now for three days and have nothing to eat.” Jesus then tested the Twelve, observing, “If I send them away hungry to their homes, they will collapse on the way, and some of them have come a great distance.” This situation should have been familiar to the Twelve. Earlier in His ministry, while in Jewish territory, Jesus had fed five thousand men with only five loaves and two fish. But now they were in Gentile territory, and instead of understanding that Jesus' same providence extended to these pagans, the disciples said to Him, “Where can anyone get enough bread to satisfy them here in this deserted place?” Once again, Jesus performed a miracle and fed four thousand.Reflect today on the universality of Jesus' mission. His compassionate care transcended cultural and religious boundaries, offering physical and spiritual nourishment to all who sought Him. Jesus' same mission continues today through us, the members of His Body, the Church. We must never become self-enclosed in our own communities of faith and family. Instead, we are called to go out into the world, to the “pagan” regions where people hunger for God's Word. Sometimes our mission is to plant a seed; at other times, it is to nurture the seed by helping it grow through the grace of God, so that everyone may come to know and love Him. Ultimately, the feeding of the five thousand Jews and four thousand Gentiles points to the universal call for all to share in the Eucharistic banquet. Learn the lesson Jesus taught the Twelve, and imitate our Lord's merciful heart, filled with compassion for those who need Him the most. My generous Lord, You desire all people to come to know You and to be saved. Free me from any hesitancy or fear in sharing Your saving Truth with those who need it most. Grant me the wisdom to discern when to plant the seed, when to nurture it, and when to harvest. Use me as Your instrument to draw others into the fullness of life, where they may share in Your Eucharistic banquet of grace. Jesus, I trust in You.Image: New Skete: multiplication of loaves & fishes by Jim Forest, license CC BY-NC-ND 2.0Source: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life!

HT2532 - Twelve Significant Photographs I'm not sure if this assertion by Ansel Adams is apocryphal or true, but I know I've heard it my entire photographic life. "Twelve significant photographs in any one year is a good crop." In light of today's realities, is this still valid? It's clearly not valid from a technical point of view. So what did he mean? What are the implications for photography if it's now possible to produce hundreds, perhaps thousands of good prints per year? What's the difference between significant and good?

The search for Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of Today Show host Savannah Guthrie, has entered a critical new phase as investigators intensify efforts in what has become one of the most closely watched missing person cases in the country. Twelve days into the manhunt, a potentially crucial piece of evidence has surfaced: a glove discovered more than a mile from Nancy Guthrie's home, the same location where surveillance footage captured a suspect lingering on her front stoop before she vanished.The glove, first reported by the New York Post, appears similar to the one worn by the unidentified individual seen in the disturbing video. Now, reports from Fox Digital suggest a second glove may have been recovered, though law enforcement has not publicly confirmed that development. If connected, this discovery could become a pivotal forensic breakthrough. Investigators are expected to test the glove for touch DNA, sweat residue, and even hair fibers — evidence that could identify a suspect and dramatically shift the trajectory of the case.Adding to the urgency, FBI Evidence Response Team agents returned to Nancy Guthrie's property in what appeared to be a targeted follow-up search. Unlike an initial grid sweep, this renewed presence signals investigators may be pursuing a specific lead. With approximately 100 agents reportedly assigned, the scale of the federal response underscores the gravity of this suspected abduction.Meanwhile, conflicting reports have emerged about whether Savannah Guthrie's family has hired a private investigator. While some sources claim outside assistance is involved, others deny it. Experts note that while private investigators can assist with outreach and background work, only federal authorities possess the legal power to execute search warrants and subpoenas essential to solving a case of this magnitude.As forensic testing begins and digital evidence continues to be analyzed, the nation waits. Will the glove provide a defining forensic link, similar to other landmark true crime breakthroughs? In a case fueled by breaking news updates, massive media presence, and mounting public concern, every new detail matters. The investigation into Nancy Guthrie's disappearance remains active, intense, and far from over.#NancyGuthrie #SavannahGuthrie #BreakingNews #MissingPerson #TrueCrime #FBIInvestigation #Manhunt #CrimeNews #JusticeForNancy #ForensicEvidence
Read OnlineJesus left the district of Tyre and went by way of Sidon to the Sea of Galilee, into the district of the Decapolis. And people brought to him a deaf man who had a speech impediment and begged him to lay his hand on him. Mark 7:31–32Throughout Jesus' public ministry, His actions, while purely charitable, were often deliberate and provocative. His words and deeds testified to the true meaning of the Mosaic Law by exposing the damaging legalism of many Pharisees, whose misinterpretations deeply influenced God's Chosen People. For example, Jesus healed a man with a withered hand on the Sabbath (cf. Mark 3:1–6) and cured a man who had been lame for thirty-eight years (cf. John 5:1–18). In both cases, Jesus was accused of violating the Sabbath rest as interpreted by the Pharisaic traditions. By challenging these restrictive and erroneous interpretations, Jesus demonstrated that the Sabbath is a day for mercy, healing, and honoring God, not a burdensome observance of human traditions. Jesus boldly lived the Mosaic Law as it was intended, while challenging the erroneous practices and beliefs He encountered. Another act of deliberate and charitable provocation was Jesus' ministry among the Gentiles. At that time, observant Jews often avoided direct interactions with Gentiles, considering them ritually unclean and outside the covenant community of Israel. Yet Jesus traveled into Gentile regions such as Tyre, Sidon, and the Decapolis. In today's Gospel, Jesus traveled from Tyre to Sidon and then to the Decapolis, where He healed a deaf and mute man. Being predominantly Gentile regions, they were marked by pagan worship, Hellenistic culture, and lifestyles often incompatible with Jewish religious practices. It is likely that Jesus' companions—the Twelve—were surprised and uneasy during these visits, but that was precisely the point. Their journey to these territories was itself a lesson Jesus intended to teach. By engaging with Gentiles, Jesus revealed that God's salvation is not limited to Israel but extends to all nations, fulfilling the promise made to Abraham: “All the families of the earth will find blessing in you” (Genesis 12:3). In doing so, Jesus began preparing His disciples to shed nationalistic biases and embrace the universal scope of God's covenant of salvation.The healing of the deaf and mute man carries profound significance. First, by performing the miracle in predominantly Gentile territory, Jesus directed its meaning beyond the Jews to all peoples of every nation. The message is clear: By healing the man's deafness, Jesus teaches that all must hear the saving message of the Gospel. By healing his speech impediment, Jesus further teaches that all who hear the Gospel are called to proclaim it.Though the manner of this healing—putting “his finger into the man's ears and, spitting, touched his tongue”—is rich with symbolism, it also reveals Jesus' personal and compassionate approach. For a deaf and mute man, spoken words alone would not have conveyed what Jesus was about to do. By using touch and visible gestures, Jesus communicated with the man in a way he could understand, engaging him personally and tenderly. This reflects the boundless compassion of Jesus, Who meets each of us where we are.Reflect today on the lesson the Twelve learned as they traveled with Jesus through Gentile and pagan regions. As followers of Christ, we must learn not only from His words but also from His actions. The Creed, the Sacraments, and the moral teachings of the Church are not meant for Catholics alone but for all people. At times, sharing the Gospel might require charitable provocation within the social circles in which we live and work. We must strive to do so in ways that people can understand, setting aside artificial or inconsequential traditions that obstruct the message. True compassion leads us to every person, making us instruments of their salvation, knowing that the message we bring is for all, so that “all the families of the earth” may find blessing in God through you.My compassionate and provocative Lord, You confidently and lovingly challenged the burdensome and restrictive traditions that had overshadowed the true spirit of the Mosaic Law, pointing Your disciples—and us—to the universal scope of Your saving mission. Grant me the courage and wisdom to be an instrument of Your Gospel to everyone I meet. Help me to love them where they are, with the tenderness and compassion You show, so that they, too, may be drawn into the joy of Your eternal Kingdom. Jesus, I trust in You.Image: unknown, (Markusmaler und Gehilfe), Public domain, via Wikimedia CommonsSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life!

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Twelve days after Nancy Guthrie was allegedly abducted from her Catalina Foothills home, the FBI has recovered its most significant physical evidence yet — a pair of black latex gloves found along a desert roadside less than two miles from her house. The gloves resemble those worn by the masked individual seen in doorbell camera footage released earlier this week and are now being tested for DNA and fingerprints.FBI agents spent Wednesday conducting an extensive ground search along roadways, washes, pulloffs, and culverts surrounding Nancy's neighborhood — terrain defined by thick desert brush, winding roads, and zero streetlights due to Pima County's dark-sky ordinances. The FBI's Hostage Rescue Team has also been deployed to Tucson, a tactical unit reserved for scenarios involving potential hostage recovery operations.The doorbell footage is now undergoing advanced analytics including AI-enhanced facial geometry mapping — technology that attempts to identify facial features through the ski mask fabric. Investigators are also cross-referencing retail purchase records for every identifiable item in the footage across Tucson-area stores, building a purchase timeline that could lead to a name.New developments include a third note received by TMZ — not from the kidnapper but from someone claiming to know the kidnapper's identity and demanding one bitcoin for the information. The original ransom bitcoin wallet also showed its first activity since the case began.Meanwhile, the Pima County Sheriff's Department has not held a press briefing in nearly a week despite recovering physical evidence, deploying HRT, receiving over four thousand tips in twenty-four hours, and running advanced forensic analysis on the footage. Their stated threshold for a briefing — a "significant development" — raises serious questions about what this agency considers significant.Nancy Guthrie has a pacemaker, requires daily medication the sheriff has called potentially fatal to miss, and cannot walk fifty yards unassisted. Day twelve. No proof of life. No confirmed contact with whoever took her. And the lead agency won't step in front of a camera.#NancyGuthrie #SavannahGuthrie #NancyGuthrieMissing #PimaCountySheriff #FBISearch #CatalinaFoothills #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #NancyGuthrieKidnapping #ChrisNanosJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Share a commentA young man asks a father for his daughter's hand with a promise most would never make: expect hardship, insult, and maybe a violent death. That stark beginning sets the course for Adoniram and Ann Judson's life of conviction, where truth outran comfort and a clear call survived the loss of money, safety, and applause. We follow their voyage where long hours in Scripture reshaped their beliefs, cost them their support, and sent them to Burma to start from nothing—no grammar, no dictionary, no church—only the resolve to build a language bridge strong enough to carry the gospel.What unfolds is both brutal and beautiful. Years of quiet work yield almost no visible fruit; persecution raises the stakes; the emperor tosses a tract to the floor; a child dies; a prison cell turns nights into torture; and grief carves out a hollow in Adoniram's soul that swallows even joy. He steps back from honors, digs his own grave, and writes that God is the great unknown. Then a letter about his brother's last‑minute faith lights a small fire. He returns to the desk, to translation, and to a patience forged by suffering. The tide shifts. Interest grows. A second marriage steadies the home. Among the Karens—keepers of oral traditions about a Creator, a tempter, and a promised deliverer—thousands travel for months to ask for writings that show the way of escape. Twelve years had seen eighteen baptisms; one year will bring more than a thousand.The legacy stretches far beyond numbers. Adoniram completes the Burmese Bible; grammars and dictionaries rest on his groundwork; and churches multiply where none stood. By his death at sixty‑one, hundreds of congregations gather, and estimates count over two hundred thousand believers across Burma. He returns to America only briefly and whispers the gospel when crowds beg for adventure tales, a quiet refusal that speaks louder than fame. This is a story for anyone weighing cost against calling, wondering if endurance matters when results lag.

Islamic terrorists attacked the US Consulate in Benghazi on September 11, 2012, eleven years after the attacks on the World Trade Center. As noted previously, the Libyan nightmare was the result of a war that President Obama and Hillary Clinton started. They never should have started the war in Libya, never should have placed Americans there unprotected, and when the Americans in Benghazi were under attack on 9-11, 2012 they should have provided help. Instead, four Americans died in Benghazi as was famously portrayed in the movie 13 Hours. For days after the attack on Benghazi, President Obama and Hillary Clinton blamed the attack in Benghazi on a made up story about a US citizen who incited protests in Benghazi from a YouTube video about Islam. They continued with the story as the caskets of the four dead Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens, were shipped back to the US. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton left the Consulate to fend for itself and never sent military support to rescue the men trapped at the Consulate. Attorney General Pam Bondi: On September 11th, 2012, Americans watched horrified as our embassy in Bengasi came under a vicious terror attack. We lost four American lives that day: Ambassador Chris Stevens, Sean Smith with the State Department, and two CIA contractors, Glenn Dordy and Tyrone Woods. We have never forgotten those heroes, and we have never stopped seeking justice for that crime against our nation. In fact, from day one, Cash and Dan would sit in meetings and say, We're going to get them, and they did. Today, I'm proud to announce that the FBI has arrested one of the key participants behind the Bengasi attack. Zubar Albaqash landed at Andrews Air Force Base at 03: 00 AM this morning.

The Government of Iran continues to restrict access to mobile, landline, and national internet networks. Airlines continue to limit or cancel flights to and from Iran. U.S. citizens should expect continued internet outages, plan alternative means of communication, and, if safe to do so, consider departing Iran by land to Armenia or Türkiye. Actions to Take: Leave Iran now. Have a plan for departing Iran that does not rely on U.S. government help. Flight cancellations and disruptions are possible with little warning. Check directly with your airlines for updates. If you cannot leave, find a secure location within your residence or another safe building. Have a supply of food, water, medications, and other essential items. Avoid demonstrations, keep a low profile, and stay aware of your surroundings. Monitor local media for breaking news. Be prepared to adjust your plans. Keep your phone charged and maintain communication with family and friends to inform them of your status. Enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) to receive the latest updates on security in Iran. If You Plan to Leave Iran: U.S.-Iranian dual nationals must exit Iran on Iranian passports. The Iranian government does not recognize dual nationality and will treat U.S.-Iranian dual nationals solely as Iranian citizens. U.S. nationals are at significant risk of questioning, arrest, and detention in Iran. Showing a U.S. passport or demonstrating connections to the United States can be reason enough for Iranian authorities to detain someone. U.S. citizens who do not have a valid U.S. passport in their possession should apply for one at the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate after departing Iran. The U.S. government cannot guarantee your safety if you choose to depart using the following options. You should leave only if you believe it is safe to do so.

As WHDH reported, Wu signed an “An Executive Order To Protect Bostonians From Unconstitutional and Violent Federal Operations.” Specifically, the order bans federal officials, including ICE, from using city property for immigration enforcement operations. Wu's office says the order is designed to “protect residents from illegal federal overreach, prioritizing de-escalation, and reaffirms that Boston will hold anyone accountable who commits violence, property damage, or any criminal conduct in the City, including federal officials.” Source: thegatewaypundit.com https://twitter.com/libsoftiktok/status/2020487139377443327?s=20 https://twitter.com/WallStreetApes/status/2019900883082031120?s=20 https://twitter.com/Badhombre/status/2019488291263823960?s=20 “People for the American Way” and Brian Tyler Cohen's “Chorus.” People for the American Way receives most of its funding from George Soros' Open Society Foundations.

Democrats Cry As Trump Makes It Easier to Fire Federal Workers The Trump administration is planning to make it easier to discipline—and potentially fire—career officials in senior positions across the government, a move that would affect roughly 50,000 federal workers. The U.S. Office of Personnel Management, which oversees the federal workforce, issued a final rule on Thursday that creates a category of worker for high-ranking career employees whose work focuses on executing the administration's policies. Workers who fall into that category would no longer be subject to rules that for decades have set a high bar for firing federal employees. The Trump team, however, characterizes the move as one that gives the executive branch the ability to better shape the bureaucracy to help serve its agenda, instead of allowing it to clandestinely thwart it: The administration has been clear that the goal of the rule is to more easily fire workers they argue are hindering Trump policies — a nod to the president's claims of a “Deep State” within the federal government trying to undermine him. “This is not about people's views or ideas. This is about whether they are refusing to actually affect their duties on behalf of the American people consistent with the objectives of this administration,” said Scott Kupor, director of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), which promulgated the rule.

How in the world would you REINSTATE a policy where an illegal who successfully evaded detection at a port of entry has legal recourse to bond when those illegals detected at a port of entry do not? The 5th just rightfully found that NEITHER kind of illegal should have recourse to bond – whether they are detected at a port of entry or they successfully sneak into the country and are here for months/years before being caught. The fact this absurd situation persisted for decades shows you the system was rigged to allow human trafficking and to create a literal legal industry to facilitate it. Trump can “legally” mass deport ALL illegals, whether they have committed a crime or not. “A federal appeals court ruled that Trump administration can lock up the vast majority of people it is seeking to deport without offering a chance for bond, even if they have no criminal records and have resided in the country for decades. https://twitter.com/alexahenning/status/2020196173663867144?s=20 https://twitter.com/HansMahncke/status/2020253940374245522?s=20 https://twitter.com/DNIGabbard/status/2020227805976678574?s=20 control of the Whistleblower's complaint, so I obviously could not have “hidden” it in a safe. Biden-era IC Inspector General Tamara Johnson was in possession of and responsible for securing the complaint for months. – The first time I saw the whistleblower complaint was 2 weeks ago when I had to review it to provide guidance on how it should be securely shared with Congress. – As Vice Chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Senator Warner knows very well that whistleblower complaints that contain highly classified and compartmented intelligence—even if they contain baseless allegations like this one—must be secured in a safe, which the Biden-era Inspector General Tamara Johnson did and her successor, Inspector General Chris Fox, continued to do. After IC Inspector General Fox hand-delivered the complaint to the Gang of 8, the complaint was returned to a safe where it remains, consistent with any information of such sensitivity. – Either Senator Warner knows these facts and is intentionally lying to the American people, or he doesn't have a clue how these things work and is therefore not qualified to be in the U.S. Senate—and certainly not the Vice Chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee. Here is a detailed chronology of the situation: – June 2025, I became aware that a whistleblower made a complaint against me that after further investigation, neither Biden-era IC Inspector General Tamara Johnson nor current IC Inspector General Chris Fox found the complaint to be credible. – The complaint required special handling and storage in a safe because the complainant chose to include highly sensitive information within the complaint itself rather than referencing the sensitive reporting and leaving the complaint at a lower level of classification. – Security standards for complaints that include such sensitive intelligence required the Inspector General to keep the complaint and the intelligence referenced secured in a safe from the time the complaint was made, until now. – In June 2025 after Biden-era Inspector General Tamara Johnson completed her review of the complaint, no further oversight or investigative activity took place. – Biden-era Inspector General Johnson had communicated with me directly throughout the course of her investigation into this complaint, yet neither she nor anyone from her office informed me that the Whistleblower chose to send the complaint to Congress which would require me to issue security instructions. – When a complaint is not found to be credible, there is no timeline under the law for the provision of security guidance. The “21 day” requirement that Senator Warner alleges I did not comply with, only applies when a complaint is determined by the Inspector General to be both urgent AND apparently credible. That was NOT the case here. – I was made aware of the need to provide security guidance by IC Inspector General Chris Fox on December 4, 2025, which he detailed in his letter to Congress. – I took immediate action to provide the security guidance to the Intelligence Community Inspector General who then shared the complaint and referenced intelligence with relevant members of Congress last week. Senator Warner’s decision to spread lies and baseless accusations over the months for political gain, undermines our national security and is a disservice to the American people and the Intelligence Community. https://twitter.com/seanmdav/status/2020151219210137711?s=20 https://twitter.com/AlecLace/status/2019802427487027667?s=20 https://twitter.com/WallStreetMav/status/2020150184374681890?s=20 https://twitter.com/AlecLace/status/2019849309148311983?s=20 https://twitter.com/TheStormRedux/status/2019941561367191842?s=20 https://twitter.com/Rasmussen_Poll/status/2020183096667128211?s=20 2.

Share a commentA door splinters in Rangoon and chains bite into a young missionary's ankles, but the story starts years earlier with a valedictorian who traded faith for fashionable doubt—and then spent a sleepless night listening to a dying friend through a thin wall. That shock sent Adoniram Judson home, back to Christ, and forward into a calling that would test every conviction he held. We walk through the unlikely steps: a proposal that reads like a martyr's oath, a voyage that turns a Congregationalist couple into Baptists mid-sea, and a decade of language work without a teacher, dictionary, or church. Seven years for one convert. Twelve years for eighteen. Meanwhile, a printing press hums, pages multiply, and a New Testament in Burmese takes shape with careful, stubborn fidelity.Then the empire shifts. War erupts between England and Burma, suspicion falls, and Judson is dragged to prison as a supposed spy. We sit with Anne's grit as she bargains for scraps, delivers a baby, and begs milk from village mothers while her husband hangs nightly by the ankles. Release comes suddenly, but the cost is devastating: Anne's death, their daughter's passing, and news of his father's funeral push Judson into a dark season of silence and surrender. He gives away honors, moves into the jungle, and digs a grave beside a hut to face his own mortality. Out of that deep winter, the seed does its hidden work. The translation stands. The church survives. The scars become a map for anyone who wonders whether slow, faithful obedience still matters in a world that rewards speed and spectacle.We share this story to challenge how we measure impact and to honor the quiet craft of translation, cross-cultural ministry, and perseverance under persecution. If you've wrestled with doubt, chased purpose across false starts, or questioned whether costly conviction is worth it, Judson's path offers a bracing, hopeful answer.

Read OnlineAfter making the crossing to the other side of the sea, Jesus and his disciples came to land at Gennesaret and tied up there. As they were leaving the boat, people immediately recognized him. Mark 6:53–54As soon as Jesus stepped out of the boat, the people “immediately recognized him.” Jesus and the Twelve had spent the previous day on the northeastern shore of the Sea of Galilee, in the remote territory near Bethsaida where they planned to be alone. When they arrived there, however, the crowds were waiting for them, so Jesus preached to thousands of people and then performed the miraculous feeding of five thousand.Afterward, Jesus sent the Twelve ahead of Him toward Capernaum, but the wind blew the disciples off course to the agricultural and fishing land of Gennesaret, a few miles south of Capernaum. It was during that nighttime sea voyage that Jesus walked on water and calmed the sea.Was it by accident that Jesus and the disciples arrived in Gennesaret rather than Capernaum? Likely not. Divine Providence guided everything Jesus did. The Father willed that Jesus minister to the people of that region, which He did with great power. The fact that the people immediately recognized Jesus speaks to their deep faith and spiritual sensitivity. Their recognition went beyond physical familiarity; their faith told them that He was the Messiah. As soon as they saw Him, their hearts were stirred. They gathered in great numbers, bringing many who were sick to Him and quickly sent word to the nearby villages to come quickly, for Jesus was there.Unlike the people of Nazareth, the people along the shore of the Sea of Galilee quickly manifested faith in Jesus. As a result, Jesus' miracles were numerous. Another sign that their faith was authentic was that the people did not act selfishly, trying to keep Jesus to themselves. Instead, their attention turned to those who needed Him the most, especially the sick and lame. This demonstrates the connection between faith and charity. True faith inspires an outpouring of love for others. We are not only grateful to God for the grace we receive, but we also immediately think of those in need—both those we know and others God places in our lives—and draw them to Jesus as well.Significantly, the people begged Jesus to let them “touch only the tassel on his cloak” (Mark 6:56). In the Torah, God commanded Moses to instruct the people to “make tassels for the corners of their garments, fastening a violet cord to each corner.” The tassels were meant to be a constant reminder of the Ten Commandments and their commitment to obey that covenant (cf. Numbers 15:37–41). Therefore, by touching the tassels Jesus wore in obedience to the Torah, the people were touching something sacred to them, worn by Him Who, as God, gave the people the Torah. By touching the tassels, the people not only honored the Torah but also reached out to its fulfillment in Jesus. Though they might not have fully understood what they were doing, their faith compelled them and they responded.Though today's Gospel is short, it is packed with faith, revealing numerous people flocking to Jesus with eagerness and divine hope. These people teach us how we must react to God's presence in our lives. Reflect today on the people of the land of Gennesaret who, upon recognizing Jesus in faith, “scurried about the surrounding country,” gathering many others who reached out in faith to touch the tassels Jesus wore. Consider whether you recognize Jesus' presence when you encounter Him. Do you recognize Him in the Eucharist, in your prayer, and in the people you encounter daily? When you do, do you immediately think of ways you can help bring others to Jesus? Do you reach out in faith, touching Jesus' tassels, believing with all certainty that His divine power will heal your soul and cure your weaknesses? Imitate these good people of Gennesaret, and Jesus' almighty power will flow generously into your life, just as it did to them. Most miraculous Lord, Your generosity knows no bounds when Your people seek You out in faith. Just as the people of Gennesaret recognized You in faith, You call me to do the same. I pray that I will always seek You out, and when I find You, will draw others to You. Jesus, I trust in You.Image via Adobe StockSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

Brendan Banfield spent his career as an IRS special agent. He knew how investigations work. He knew how prosecutors think. He apparently believed he could beat a murder charge by taking the stand and explaining why "no reasonable person" would kill their wife over a six-week affair.Nine hours of deliberation. Guilty on every count. Life without parole.The jury believed the au pair. Juliana Peres Magalhães testified that she watched Banfield stab Christine, that they staged the crime scene together, that the whole thing was his plan from the beginning. She walked free with time served on a manslaughter plea. The defense called her bought and paid for.Twelve people didn't care.Defense attorney Bob Motta joins Hidden Killers Live to break down exactly what happened. The decision to put Banfield on the stand. The DNA that wasn't on the knife. The digital forensics fight that went nowhere. And the fundamental flaw in the defense strategy: they told the jury what didn't happen, but never gave them an alternative story to believe.Bob explains why attacking a cooperating witness's credibility isn't enough. You have to give jurors somewhere else to land. The defense never did.Prosecutors painted a picture of a calculated scheme—fake profiles on FetLife, catfishing Joseph Ryan into believing he was meeting Christine for a consensual violent encounter, killing him when he arrived, and framing him for her murder. The jury bought it completely.Now the appeals begin. Potential grounds include the extraordinary plea deal given to Magalhães, suppressed digital evidence, and a recent Virginia Supreme Court ruling. But right now, Brendan Banfield is facing mandatory life without parole.Was he arrogant enough to think he was the smartest person in the room?
