Five Saturdays of Reparation This conference explores the rich history, theology, and spiritual meaning behind the Five First Saturdays Devotion . . . . . . associated with Sister Lucia and Our Lady of Fatima. The conference explains that devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary on Saturdays long predates Fatima, arising from the Church's meditation on Holy Saturday, when Mary alone remained steadfast in faith while Christ lay in the tomb. Over centuries, Christians began dedicating Saturdays . . . and especially First Saturdays . . . to honoring Mary's role in salvation history, meditating on the mysteries of the Rosary, and growing spiritually through communal prayer. The conference highlights how the Five First Saturdays requested at Fatima are not a completely new devotion, but a focused renewal of older Marian traditions, emphasizing fervor over routine and intentional prayer over empty habit. Why Five First Saturdays? The conference further explains the spiritual practices requested for the Five First Saturdays: Holy Communion, Confession, praying the Rosary, fifteen minutes of meditation on the mysteries, and offering these acts in reparation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. The conference also explores the five types of Reparation. The devotion is presented as both deeply personal and profoundly catechetical, inviting believers to understand and defend Marian doctrines such as the Immaculate Conception, perpetual virginity, and Mary's motherhood of God and the Church. The reflection also stresses the importance of reverence, beauty, and intentionality in Catholic devotion, warning against mediocrity and neglect in honoring sacred things. Ultimately, the Five First Saturdays are portrayed as an act of love, reparation, and perseverance, with the promise that the Blessed Mother will assist the faithful with the graces needed at the hour of death. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Two Views of the Official New York State Fatima Pilgrim Image

Why do we pray—really? In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef reminds us that the ultimate purpose of prayer is not self-fulfillment but the glory of God. Jesus Himself said He answers prayer “so that the Father may be glorified in the Son” (John 14:13). And even when God meets our needs, the goal remains the same: His Name honored and His goodness displayed. Dr. Youssef also tackles two common extremes believers fall into: Fatalism: “Prayer doesn't matter—God will do what He will do,” Manipulation: “Prayer makes God act like He wouldn't otherwise.” Scripture, he explains, teaches a better way: God is fully sovereign, and yet within His sovereignty He truly responds when His people pray with the right focus. That's why we must avoid two unhealthy attitudes—being afraid to ask God for anything, or treating Him like a “bellhop” who exists to serve our agenda. Instead, Dr. Youssef points to our identity as God's children: we can ask boldly, but we trust the Father to give what is best—just as good parents do (Matthew 7:11). Mature prayer sounds like Jesus: “Not my will, but Yours be done.” If you want your prayer life to deepen, this episode will help you realign your requests with God's glory and grow in faith-filled dependence. Prayer: Father, thank You that You want to hear from Your children and that You glorify Yourself as You meet our needs. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:6-7). Learn more in Dr. Michael A. Youssef's sermon Psalm 121: LISTEN NOW The voice you hear on the MY Devotional podcast is digitally generated with Dr. Youssef's permission. If today's devotional stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don't have to walk through it alone.

This episode is one of a kind–our two cohosts do not agree on this episode's topic. You're not going to want to miss it!In this episode, Trevor and Ryan sit down to talk about speaking in tongues, discussing what it can and cannot biblically be, some of the possible interpretations of the biblical passages covering it, and whether or not all Christians everywhere should pursue speaking in tongues for salvation or blessing (spoiler, the answer is "no"). Join the conversation by letting us know what your faith traditions have taught or not taught you about the gift of tongues in the comments below!
Psalm 82 declares, “You are gods” (elohim). Jesus quotes this passage in John 10 as he confronts the false shepherds of Israel. Yet the meaning of this Psalm is debated. Who, exactly, are the elohim or “gods” addressed in Psalm 82? In his new book, “You Are Elohim: Two Views of Psalm 82,” Rob Vanhoff surveys the major interpretations of this text and explores some of the implications. I'm excited to have him with us to talk about his book.Check out Rob Vanhoff's book here.Check out Telos Torah Bible Academy here.

In this episode, Rich reconnects with Timothy Hayden for a grounded, wide-ranging conversation about discipline, education, and the culture shaping modern America. The two discuss daily habits like journaling and meditation, how discipline creates freedom, and why overthinking is the silent struggle of our time. From reflections on “cookie cutter America” and the emptiness of profit-driven culture to the books that reshaped Timothy's life in prison—including As a Man Thinketh and The Count of Monte Cristo—this conversation blends philosophy, practicality, and personal growth. Together, they also begin discussing their next collaborative book, Two Views, One Vision: Mind & Consciousness. It's a reflective dialogue about awareness, purpose, and the courage to build a new way of thinking in a changing world.

Today, Pastor Al Dagel found reason for praise in the Psalms and in the Book of Hebrews.
At the EUVC Summit 2025, Anthony and Sarah took the stage with what turned out to be one of the most intellectually charged exchanges of the day. The topic? Solo GPs, specialization, and the hard choices that define fund performance.Let's just say—no consensus was reached. But the tension? That's where the insight lived.Anthony came in strong:“Being a solo GP is the purest form of interest alignment.”To him, solo GPs aren't a stepping stone or niche play—they're a category in their own right. The advantage? Focus. Speed. Zero overhead. And most importantly: a differentiated product founders want.He highlighted what he sees as the compounding edge:No IC.No coordination cost.Vertically integrated workflows.A position as a complementary node, not a competitor, in the ecosystem.And yes—there's scale in solo too.“I just had coffee with two solo GPs managing over a billion in AUM. You don't need to ‘scale up' to be credible.”Sarah offered a more grounded lens: focus on performance over scale.“You don't win on good ops alone—but you can lose on bad ops.”Her point: it's not about copying what works in another market. It's about right-sizing your fund to what your strategy and your market can actually sustain.Especially in Europe, she argued, the path isn't about chasing a 10x in AUM—it's about finding the zone where your edge sings.“If I think about the funds I admire, they got really good at finding the fund size that matched their true strategy.”And for emerging managers, the key is still figuring out what the market needs now, not just what worked last cycle.As the session wrapped, one line captured the spirit of it all:“The test of a great intelligence is holding two opposing ideas at the same time.”At EUVC, we didn't just hear those ideas.We saw them—sitting side by side on stage.And if we're smart about it, we won't choose one or the other.We'll connect the dots.The Case for the Solo GP: Pure Alignment, Compounding AdvantageThe Performance Perspective: Ops, Fund Size & Market FitTwo Views. Both True.

On occasion we address Covenant Church family questions during the Sunday morning message. We want to engage our folks where they are, and these questions help our pastors be more effective, by understanding where they struggle.There are many decisions Covenant makes, positions we take et al that do not make the difference between heaven and hell, and on which other churches sometimes take a different approach. Because our church is multi-denominational, we have many rich faith traditions represented among our people. Today we look at “What About the Women?” What does the Bible teach us about the role of women in the church?Join in as we listen to answers on difficult questions about our faith, and our church.LINKS + RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE:• Recommended reading for this message: Two Views of Women in Ministry; Sandra Glahn, Ph.D., “Nobody's Mother”; “Jesus & Gender” by Elyse M.

After separating from her husband of 15 years, Cindy James, a nurse in Vancouver, Canada, was brutally stalked and harassed. Despite nearly seven years of reported incidents of harassment, threatening calls, physical and sexual assaults, and other forms of abuse, police concluded that her claims were likely fabricated, possibly to gain attention or due to mental health issues. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) spent an estimated $1-1.5 million investigating Cindy's claims, making it one of the longest and most expensive investigations in British Columbia history.

In conversations around Christian faith and sexuality, especially in the U.S., it can feel like everyone's expected to pick a “side.” But it's not the same—or at least the same lines being drawn—in other places.In this episode, we talked with Aogu Fujihashi and Kaz Okaya about their experiences in the Japanese Christian context, where the conversation around LGBTQ+ identity looks a bit different. We talk about how a culture of conformity impacts same-sex marriage ideas in Japan, how American evangelicals influence Japanese churches, and the quiet struggles many queer Christians face in some church communities.

* Check out the new Thinker's Tavern discussion series athttps://www.instituteforfemininemyth.org/thinkers-tavern *This week's podcast looks at the figure of Hermaphroditus, son of Hermes (Mercury) and Aphrodite (Venus), and his encounter with the aggressive nymph Salmacis, her prayer turning them into a single being that is both male and female and neither at the same time. While Salmacis is often viewed as an aggressive woman attacking an innocent boy, an inscription at Salmacis' pool in Halicarnassus suggests a very different view of the myth. We explore the idea of the Hermaphrodite as representing the bonds of marriage and ideas about marriage, as well as its connection to Plato's myth of the proto-human in the Symposium.

The changing political dynamics at the federal government have led to renewed attention on the Malaysia Agreement 1963 and what Sabah & Sarawak are entitled to under the historic deal.

We'll hear both sides of the argument today from two prominent academics that have commented extensively on the issue - Dr. James Chin of the University of Tasmania & Dr. Wong Chin Huat of Sunway University.Image Credit: Labor Studio / Shutterstock.com

1 Peter 4:1-5 — They are only two kinds of people in this world: those that live according to Christ and those that live according to the principle of sin. In this sermon on 1 Peter 4:1–5, Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones expounds the teachings of the Apostle Peter on the divide between the way of the world and the way of Christ. Because all are born in sin and depravity, they are, by nature, slaves to darkness and sin. They live a life that is for the passing pleasures of this world, not for what is eternal and godly. Those who have been saved by Jesus have been saved out of this world and are no longer slaves to immorality and sin. They live for Christ and not for themselves. These two ways of living correspond to two eternal destinies and for those who do not believe in the Gospel, there is only wrath and judgment. But for those that repent and believe upon Jesus, there is salvation and true peace. In this sermon, Dr. Lloyd-Jones speaks not only of humanity's wretched condition, but also of God who gives grace freely to all who believe in Jesus Christ.

The book of Ecclesiastes highlights the difference between a life lived by faith and a life based on sight alone. After surveying the evidence for life's emptiness, the author realizes that what he sees does not tell the whole story. On Wednesday's Mornings with Eric and Brigitte, our guest Dr. John Koessler tells us that a truly biblical view of life must also consider the unseen God and those aspects of His plan that we cannot see. Ultimately God will have the final say. What Are We Here For? The Book of Ecclesiastes- September 2024 - TITWSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
John Fuller has been in ministry for over three decades. Not growing up in the church, John accepted Jesus as a rough and raw college student. Becoming a Christian led John to do a complete 180 in his life, ultimately resulting in him serving as a youth pastor and eventually the lead pastor of a small church.Today's conversation is filled with the wealth and wisdom that comes from understanding the importance of viewing ministry leadership through two different avenues: the Window and the Mirror. You'll be encouraged and challenged as you hear the things the Lord has taught John from the beginning of his ministry up to recently stepping down as lead pastor of his church after a successful transition.Show Notes: https://www.95network.org/podcast-recast-the-two-views-for-a-leader-the-window-the-mirror-w-john-fuller-episode-230/Support the Show.
