Minsan feeling natin sobra na ang mga pagkakamali natin para patawarin pa ng Diyos. Pero ipinapaalala ng Awit 103 na ang Diyos ay puno ng awa, biyaya, at pagmamahal. Lagi Siyang handang magpatawad sa mga lumalapit sa Kanya. Walang kasalanang higit kaysa sa Kanyang awa, at walang buhay na hindi Niya kayang baguhin. Kaya natin Siya sinasamba—hindi dahil karapat-dapat tayo, kundi dahil mabuti Siya.Speaker: Ptr.

[Intro] Lahat tayo, gustong magmahal... Pero paano kung sumobra? Makinig kayo. Let's go! [Couplet 1] Lunes pa lang, ang kasama ko ay si Juan Gwapo, mayaman, hatid-sundo sa daan. Martes naman, si Pedro ang nagmamaneho Isang text ko lang, darating ang ginoo. Miyerkules na, si Diego ang kapiling Lahat ng gusto ko, binibigay na hiling. Hwebes at Biyernes, may back-up na dalawa Sobra na ito, hindi ko na kaya ang sistema. [Refrain] Grabe siya! Isang jowa kada araw ng linggo! Umiikot ang ulo, nalilito ang puso ko! Mula Lunes hanggang Biyernes, walang bakante Ang ganda ko naman, parang isang prinsesa, grabe! Pero teka lang, weekend ay darating na... Sino ang pipiliin ko sa kanilang lima? [Couplet 2] Sabado ng gabi, nag-ring ang aking selpon Si Juan at si Pedro, gustong lumabas ngayon. Pati si Diego, tumatawag sa Viber Sabi ko na lang, "Wait lang, I'm a driver!" Naka-schedule lahat sa aking calendar Para walang mag-away, walang maging monster. Grabe ang diskarte, parang isang manager Sa love life na ito, ako ang commander! [Refrain] Grabe siya! Isang jowa kada araw ng linggo! Umiikot ang ulo, nalilito ang puso ko! Mula Lunes hanggang Biyernes, walang bakante Ang ganda ko naman, parang isang prinsesa, grabe! [PONT ] Teka, Linggo na... bakit ang tahimik ng gabi? Wala nang tumatawag, wala nang nasa tabi. Pumunta sa kalsada, doon ko nakita... Yung limang jowa ko, magkakasama na! Sila-sila ang nag-de-date, masaya sa isa't isa... Umiyak ako habang sumasayaw sa kalsada. Sana all! Sana all! Binaligtad nila ang laro. Sana all! Sana all! Ngayon ako ang talo. [Refrain Final] Grabe siya! Binaligtad ang mundo ko! Sila naman ang naglalaro sa puso ko! Mula Lunes hanggang Biyernes, ako ang taya Ngayong Linggo, sila ang masaya. Isang jowa per day, karma na pala! [Outro] Sana all... may totoong pag-ibig. Matutulog na lang ako. Walang jowa sa Linggo. (Dernier stab de synthé)

Walang mali sa pagmamahal nang masidhi pero kung ang taong naalayan ng ganitong klase ng pag-ibig ay tuso, taksil, at hindi makuntento, ang sisi ay hindi dapat sa iyo. Sinayang man ni Jane ang pagmamahal ni Brent, hindi ito naging dahilan para kamuhian siya ni Brent. Kaya nang magkita silang muli sa pangalawang pagkakataon, nararapat bang pagbigyang muli ang mga puso. Pakinggan ang kwento ni Brent sa Barangay Love Stories.

The Execution Zone: Claim Your BlueprintThe foundational system to rewrite your identity and master the 7 patterns. - https://mjlopez.ph Immersive sessions designed to shift your state and sharpen your leadership. - https://powertalks.phJoin the community of high-performers and get daily insights. - https://www.facebook.com/groups/masteryuniversitybymjopezThe Truth About Your Life Look at your current reality. If you are unhappy, stuck, or constantly stressed about bills, debt, and a lack of direction, it's because you are completely unaware of the unconscious patterns running your life. We repeat behaviors over and over, expecting different results, but the truth is raw and simple: Walang magbabago sa buhay mo kung hindi mo babaguhin yung sarili mo. You cannot expect a high-performance future or financial freedomThe Core Framework: The Iceberg of Clarity vs. Complexity. Most people focus strictly on visible Results, the money, the business, or the goals. But those results are driven entirely by your choices, speed, and execution, which are ultimately anchored by your internal Mindset, Beliefs, and Self-Image. When you lack clarity, you automatically choose complexity. You delay crucial decisions, which triggers a downward spiral of poor results, weak beliefs, and a damaged self-image.The Breakdown: 7 Things to Ruin Your Year In this episode, we aren't here to tell you what you want to hear. We are here to confront the truth about your failure and how you are actively sabotaging your goals.We will break down the 7 specific behaviors designed to demolish your year if you keep doing them. We're talking about the mental, physical, and emotional alignment required to stop just chasing success and start attracting it. If you're ready to stop lying to yourself about why you aren't winning yet, listen up. It's time to change who you are at the core.The 7 Ways to Ruin Your YearStart Something, Then Don't Finish It: Don't be an "intro boy" or sa una lang magaling. How you do the small things is how you do the big things. Finish to build evidence that you are a winner.Complicate Things: Complexity comes from a lack of clarity. When you complicate things, you delay decisions, build a poor mindset, and spiral downward. Keep it simple and execute fast.Be a People Pleaser: Trying to please everyone makes you lose your identity, culture, and self-respect. As a leader or entrepreneur, build tight systems and recruit the right people instead.Compare Yourself to Other People: Stop comparing your Chapter 1 to someone else's Chapter 10. Social media shows the brand, but character is built outside of it through invisible struggles and consistency.Let Emotions Control Your Decisions: Acting out of impulsiveness, hate, or desperation connects your heart directly to your fingers. Pause, break the pattern, and think beyond how you feel.Stay in the Wrong Community: Samahan mo ang apat na chismosa, ikaw ang pang-lima. If your circle doesn't push you, hold your language accountable, or challenge your weight and financial goals, get a new one.Being Cheap with Growth: Free information costs you massive time, trial and error, and self-image alignment. Invest in yourself. If you master yourself, you can master everything.The bottom line: Success doesn't come to you; it comes from you. Change your habits, change your image, change your life.

Now on that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem, and talking with each other about all these things that had happened. While they were talking and discussing, Jesus himself came near and went with them, but their eyes were kept from recognizing him. And he said to them, “What are you discussing with each other while you walk along?” They stood still, looking sad. Then one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answered him, “Are you the only stranger in Jerusalem who does not know the things that have taken place there in these days?” He asked them, “What things?” They replied, “The things about Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people, and how our chief priests and leaders handed him over to be condemned to death and crucified him. But we had hoped that he was the one to redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things took place. Moreover, some women of our group astounded us. They were at the tomb early this morning, and when they did not find his body there they came back and told us that they had indeed seen a vision of angels who said that he was alive. Some of those who were with us went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but they did not see him.” Then he said to them, “Oh, how foolish you are and how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have declared! Was it not necessary that the Messiah should suffer these things and then enter into his glory?” Then beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he interpreted to them the things about himself in all the scriptures. As they came near the village to which they were going, he walked ahead as if he were going on. But they urged him strongly, saying, “Stay with us, because it is almost evening and the day is now nearly over.” So he went in to stay with them. When he was at the table with them, he took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them. Then their eyes were opened, and they recognized him, and he vanished from their sight. They said to each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us while he was talking to us on the road, while he was opening the scriptures to us?” That same hour they got up and returned to Jerusalem, and they found the eleven and their companions gathered together. They were saying, “The Lord has risen indeed, and he has appeared to Simon!” Then they told what had happened on the road and how he had been made known to them in the breaking of the bread. Luke 24:13-35 NRSVUE Isang mapayapang araw sa inyong lahat. For today and the next dalawang Linggo, iisang Scripture reading lamang ang ating tatalakayin, ngunit hahatiin natin ang preaching sa tatlong bahagi. For this Sunday, I'd like to talk about being present. Sa ating buhay, madalas tayong nagiging masyadong pokus sa pagtapos ng mga gawain (tasks). Masyado tayong nagmamadali na nakakalimutan na nating maramdaman o ma-appreciate ang proseso—ang “smelling the roses” at ang tunay na pag-enjoy sa journey. Nang una kong mabasa ang tekstong ito mula sa Ebanghelyo ni Lucas (The Road to Emmaus), naisip ko: “Parang ang lakas mang-power trip ni Jesus?” Dahil sa isang kisap-mata, pinigilan niyang makilala siya ng mga alagad, at sa isang kisap-mata rin ay ipinakilala niya ang kanyang sarili. Pero kalaunan, na-realize ko na si Jesus ay kasama na nila sa buong biyahe. Hindi niya ito ginawa para paglaruan sila; sadyang ang dalawang alagad ay masyadong nakapokus sa ibang bagay. Marahil sila ay puno ng kalituhan at emosyon dahil sa balita ng muling pagkabuhay. Unveiling the Characters: Who Was on the Road? Habang binabasa ang kuwento, may mga tanong na lumitaw sa isip ko: Bakit sila papuntang Emmaus? Taga-doon ba sila? At isa pang mahalagang tanong: Sino ang kasama ni Cleopas? Sa kuwento, si Cleopas lamang ang pinangalanan. Sabi ng ilang scholars, maaaring si Simon Peter ito, pero marami ang naniniwala na ang kasama niya ay si Mary of Cleopas—ang kanyang asawa. Ayon sa tradisyon ng Simbahan, si Cleopas ay kapatid ni Jose (na asawa ni Maria, ang ina ni Jesus). Ibig sabihin, sila ay magbilas. Bago natin sagutin ang ibang tanong, nais kong bigyang-diin ang presensya ng mga kababaihan sa buhay at ministeryo ni Jesus. Mula simula hanggang sa krus, at maging sa muling pagkabuhay, laging nandoon ang mga babae. Sila ang may lakas ng loob at pananampalataya na hindi iniwan si Jesus. Minsan, ang pangalawang disipulo ay sadyang hindi pinangalanan sa Bibliya upang makita natin ang ating mga sarili sa kuwento. Tayo ang kasama ni Cleopas sa paglalakad. The Retreat from Hope Bakit nga ba sila papuntang Emmaus? Walang record na taga-doon sila. Maaaring ito ay nagsilbing temporary refuge o “halfway house” para sa kanila. Alam natin ang nangyari: Marami ang umasa na si Jesus ang magpapalaya sa kanila mula sa Imperyong Romano. Nang siya ay mamatay, tila namatay din ang kanilang mga pangarap. Ang pag-alis nila sa Jerusalem patungong Emmaus ay simbolo ng kanilang pag-atras mula sa pag-asa at komunidad. Ngunit narito ang maganda: Ang pagpapakita ni Jesus sa kalsada ay patunay na ang “Divine Presence” ay sumasalamin sa atin kahit sa mga sandaling tayo ay tumatalikod na sa pag-asa. Si Jesus ang nag-adjust para sa kanila. Nakipagtagpo siya sa kanila kung nasaan man sila. Ipinahayag niya ang kanyang sarili sa pamamagitan ng Kasulatan at sa pagpipiraso ng tinapay (Breaking of the Bread). At nang muling mag-alab ang pag-asa sa kanilang puso, bumalik agad sila sa Jerusalem nang gabing iyon upang magbahagi ng mabuting balita. Vulnerability as Strength Sa ating sariling buhay, madalas tayong nahihirapang lumapit sa Diyos kapag tayo ay nasa gitna ng pagsubok. Kadalasan, lumalapit lang tayo para magpasalamat kapag “tapos na” ang problema. Minsan naman, lumalapit lang tayo kapag nasa breaking point na tayo. Hindi ba natin naiisip na sa gitna ng ating mabigat na problema, malumanay na tumatawag si Jesus: “Hello, I am here. You can be vulnerable with me.” Your vulnerability is as beautiful as your strength. Madalas din nating mahalin ang ating “privacy” hanggang sa punto na hindi na tayo nakakapag-open up sa mga kaibigan o mahal sa buhay. Sinasabi lang natin ang kuwento kapag “overcome” na natin ang challenge. Paano naman yung mga struggle na kasalukuyan nating nilalabanan? Nasaan ang diwa ng komunidad? Bilang inyong pastor, nais kong malaman ninyo na maaari kayong maging vulnerable sa akin. Maaaring hindi ko masolusyunan ang lahat ng inyong problema, lalo na kung pinansyal, pero nangangako akong sasamahan ko kayo sa inyong paglalakbay. We are here to journey with you in your “Emmaus moments.” Learning to Pause Sa gitna ng trabaho at buhay, marami tayong bitbit na “baggages”: job security, inflation, midlife crisis, and the search for purpose. Para silang mabibigat na bag na isa-isang pinapasan hanggang sa tayo ay “ma-freeze” o ma-paralyze sa bigat. Minsan, kailangan nating tumigil at mag-assess: Bakit ito mabigat? 2. Alin sa mga ito ang pwede ko nang bitawan? 3. Alin dito ang pwede kong ipagkatiwala sa iba? Huwag nating kalimutang tumingin sa paligid. May mga taong handang tumulong sa pagpasan ng ating dalahin. Matutong huminga, tumigil, at pahalagahan ang mga kasama sa journey. Conclusion: Today is a Gift Bilang isang “frustrated wanderlust,” aminado akong hindi ako magaling sa direksyon o Maps. Umaasa lang ako sa mga landmarks. Sa paggamit ng mapa, mahalagang malaman mo muna kung nasaan ka (orienting yourself) bago mo malaman kung saan ka pupunta. Gayundin sa ating spiritual journey: Minsan kailangan nating mag-reflect kung nasaan na tayo. Gamitin natin si Jesus bilang ating compass at ang ating komunidad bilang sacred space para sa paghilom. Tandaan natin: Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift. That's why it's called the PRESENT. Pahalagahan natin ang kasalukuyan at magtiwala na ang Kristong nabuhay ay kasama natin sa bawat hakbang ng ating paglalakbay.

Sa bagong episode ng Livin' The Filipino Life, kasama natin si Victor Anastacio para pag-usapan ang halaga ng hobbies sa gitna ng magulong mundo. Nagkuwentuhan kami tungkol sa simpleng saya na dulot ng pagkakaroon ng pinagkakaabalahan—mula sa kung bakit mahalaga ang hobbies, hanggang sa pagiging busy sa home improvement, at kung paano ito nakakatulong sa mental health at overall na stability.Sa dami ng responsibilidad at stress sa araw-araw, minsan kailangan lang natin ng space para gumawa ng bagay na para sa sarili—walang pressure, walang expectations, basta masaya.Walang labis, walang kulang. May hobbies? May happiness ‘yan!Listen up, yo!

Kilala siya, hindi lang sa kanyang panlabas na ganda, kundi mas lalo sa kanyang husay, talino, at puso sa craft—sa bawat role na kanyang ginagampanan, na may lalim at may paninindigan.Pinag-usapan namin ang pagmamahal niya sa Philippine arts— mula OPM hanggang indie films —at kung paanong nagiging makapangyarihang instrumento ang sining para itampok at pagnilayan ang mga isyung panlipunan. Nauwi rin ang kwentuhan sa mas malalim at mas personal na espasyo: ang kanyang creative process, ang transition niya mula film at TV papuntang teatro, ang power ng stage para sa truth-telling at pagtampok sa mahahalagang social issues. Tinalakay din namin ang pagkakaiba ng film at theater bilang art form— ang pagiging raw, buháy, at mapangahas ng teatro bilang walang cut, walang retake, at lahat ay nangyayari sa harap mo at sa mismong sandali.Masaya nya ring ibinahagi ang kanyang upcoming stage play na ENDO, na isang Cinemalaya film, almost 2 decades ago.Mas nakita at narinig natin dito ang isang Jasmine na creative, mindful, insightful, at reflective— hindi lang artista sa harap ng kamera, kundi isang artist na may lalim, disiplina, at malasakit sa bawat proyektong pinapasok.Listen up, yo.

For thus it says in 1 Peter 2[:9], “You are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a priestly royalty.” Therefore we are all priests, as many of us as are Christians. But the priests, as we call them, are ministers chosen from among us. All that they do is done in our name; the priesthood is nothing but a ministry. This we learn from 1 Corinthians 4:1, “This is how one should regard us. Servants of Christ, and stewards of the ministries of God.” Let everyone therefore who knows himself to be Christian be assured of this: that we are all equally priests. That is to say, we have the same power and respect to the word and the sacraments. However, no one may take use of this power, except by the consent of the community, or by a call of a superior. For what is the common property of all. No individual may arrogate to himself, unless he is called. And therefore, this sacrament of ordination, if it is anything at all, is nothing else than a certain right, where by one is called to the ministry of the church. Furthermore, the priesthood is properly nothing but the ministry of the Word; the Word, I say; not the law, but the gospel. Martin Luther King on Priesthood Then afterward I will pour out my spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions. Even on the male and female slaves, in those days I will pour out my spirit. Joel 2:28-29 (NRSVUE) Now John wore clothing of camel's hair with a leather belt around his waist, and his food was locusts and wild honey. Then Jerusalem and all Judea and all the region around the Jordan were going out to him, and they were baptized by him in the River Jordan, confessing their sins. But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for his baptism, he said to them, “You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath? Therefore, bear fruit worthy of repentance, and do not presume to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our ancestor,' for I tell you, God is able from these stones to raise up children to Abraham. Matthew 3:4-9 (NRSVUE) So, binasa natin ang quote from Martin Luther, one of the prominent Protestant reformers, who also happens to be an Augustinian monk. What many people do not know is that he was also a Bible scholar. Maraming gumugulo sa isip ni Martin Luther noon. Takot na takot talaga siya sa Diyos. The fear was very palpable. Hindi talaga siya mapakali. Walang panalangin, walang misa, walang sacred space na kayang mag-alis ng takot niya sa Diyos at ng pakiramdam na makasalanan siya, through and through. One of the suggestions given to him by the head of his religious order was to go to the university and study theology and the Bible. Eventually, he became an expert in the New Testament. Para sa akin, doon nagsimula ang kanyang critical response at critical view of the Catholic Church. Inaamin naman ng Catholic Church na mayroong mga abuses during that time. Some of these abuses can be read in the writings of Martin Luther. Isa sa mga tinuligsa niya ay ang hierarchy of the church based on priesthood, where ordinary people were treated as inferior. May mga sulat siya describing how priests and bishops treated ordinary people like basura, parang hayop, according to him. There was this strong distinction between the priesthood and the lay people, and he saw this as deeply oppressive. When he studied Scripture, one of the things he articulated—particularly in The Babylonian Captivity of the Church—was his critique of the seven sacraments. He argued that only two were truly sacraments, while the rest were ministries and did not carry special power or grace. Later on, Protestant scholars pointed out that the Greek word for priest, hierus, is almost always used in the New Testament to refer to Jesus Christ as the High Priest. The only other time it is used for people is in First Peter, where it says, “You are a royal priesthood, a chosen race.” One of the arguments, then, is that Jesus Christ did not try to establish a new priesthood in the way that it later developed in the Roman Church. Scripturally, the word for priest does not refer to church leaders. Leaders were called episcopos (overseers), presbyteroi (elders), and diakonoi (servants or ministers). There is a specific Greek word for priest, and it is not used for church leadership. Some Protestant arguments say that Jesus did not intend to establish a priesthood similar to the temple priesthood, which was hereditary and separated from the people. There are also interpretations pointing to the tearing of the temple veil at Jesus' death, symbolizing direct access to God's holiness for all. For Luther and the Reformers, ordination was not about special grace or spiritual superpowers. It was simply a difference in ministry. Any power connected to sacraments and rituals belongs to the whole community—to the priesthood of all believers. All sacramental authority has already been given to every baptized Christian. This is why some churches emphasize apostolic succession, while others do not. In Reformed, Protestant, and evangelical traditions—including MCC—ministry flows from baptism and faith, and leaders are discerned and called by the community. There is also a connection between the Reformation and Western democracy. The Reformers helped democratize Christianity by declaring that no special group has sole authority over Scripture and sacraments. It is the people of God who discern, and from among themselves, call leaders to serve on their behalf. For MCC, this matters deeply. MCC was formed by LGBTQ+ Christians who were excluded, rejected, or oppressed by their churches. From its earliest years in the 1970s, MCC affirmed that women could and should be ordained. That decision came very early in its life, even when many other churches still resisted women's leadership. As MCC grew rapidly across different countries, the question became both practical and theological: who will lead the church? Looking back to its Pentecostal and Baptist roots, MCC affirmed that the call to ministry is not limited by gender, sexuality, or status, but grounded in the priesthood of all believers.

In those days John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness of Judea, proclaiming, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.” This is the one of whom the prophet Isaiah spoke when he said, “The voice of one crying out in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the Lord; make his paths straight.' ” Now John wore clothing of camel's hair with a leather belt around his waist, and his food was locusts and wild honey. Then Jerusalem and all Judea and all the region around the Jordan were going out to him, and they were baptized by him in the River Jordan, confessing their sins. But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for his baptism, he said to them, “You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath? Therefore, bear fruit worthy of repentance, and do not presume to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our ancestor,' for I tell you, God is able from these stones to raise up children to Abraham. Even now the ax is lying at the root of the trees; therefore every tree that does not bear good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire. “I baptize you with water for repentance, but the one who is coming after me is more powerful than I, and I am not worthy to carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clear his threshing floor and will gather his wheat into the granary, but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.” Matthew 3:1-12 NRSVUE Marami sa inyo dito ang tawag sa akin ay Ardy. Pero pag naririnig ng kapatid ko yang pangalan na yan, natatawa siya. Sa totoo, ako rin minsan, lalo na pag pinapakilala ako ni Jandi na Ardy sa friends at mga kakilala niya. Five years pa lang kasi yung pangalan na yan kaya hindi pa sanay yung kapatid ko, at minsan ako rin. Nung nag-out ako 5 years ago, I chose that nickname. Ayoko nang ipakilala yung sarili ko as Rhick, lalo na as Deuel. And looking back, it's not actually about me wanting to be called differently, kasi unang-una mas madali yung Rhick. Ang Ardy, two syllables. It's about me wanting to be known differently. I wanted to create this new self, this new identity. And so 5 years after, weeks after my birthday, napatanong ako, sino nga ba talaga si Ardy? Was I able to actually live differently? Was I successful in building this new self? Was I able to transform myself? Si Jandi alam na alam ang sagot sa mga tanong na yan. Yang mga questions na yan, obviously, hindi dumating sa akin out of the blue. When I was studying the scripture reading, na-fascinate ako kasi hindi nga pala bago itong konsepto ng transforming oneself. In Matthew 3:2, John proclaimed, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.” The Greek word for repentance is metanoia, which is usually simply translated in English as to change or to transform. Hence, the call to transform oneself isn't new. Even before Jesus, people were already called to be transformed. Digging into the historical context of this story, this call from John is an invitation for the people during his time to be renewed. If we go one verse back, this story of John is actually a bit theatrical because he appeared in the wilderness. So meron siyang ganung atake. Kaya naman John is actually a very queer Biblical character, not in a total SOGIESC sense, but in how he used strange fashion and lifestyle not to stand out, but to remind people of a story. Very draga. He intentionally wore, sa verse 4, clothing of camel’s hair with a leather belt around his waist. Why? To look like Prophet Elijah. Bakit niya gusto magmukhang propeta? He wanted to be like the prophets of ancient Israel. He wanted to remind people of what happened to the Israelites when they didn’t follow God’s commandments. Kaya dun siya umeksena sa wilderness because it served as a stage that would amplify his message. He wanted to remind people that the true essence of the covenant and commandments is to show the world that there is a different way of living, of being. God gave ancient Israel a framework on how to set themselves apart from other nations. And so proclaiming the message of repentance from the wilderness must remind the Jews to become the people that Israel had been called to be from the very beginning. The past generations failed, and in verse 10, he declared that the time had arrived, God is offering a final opportunity. Therefore, John’s call for repentance is a call to transform oneself: to have a complete change of mind and heart, inviting people to be baptized to publicly proclaim that they are setting themselves apart from the ways of their world. Now, sa atin ngayon, what does the call for repentance mean to us? What does transformation of self mean to us? Syempre, hindi yan mag-start sa paggawa ng bagong nickname. Pwede niyo rin gawin iyon, but gaya nga ng tanong ko sa sarili ko, yes, gumawa ako ng bagong name for myself, but did I really undergo a genuine process of becoming transformed into someone new? Samahan niyo kong sagutin yang tanong na yan by exploring two steps on how to gain true metanoia. The first step is to think about what we’ve done or how we’re currently behaving. For some, this could be difficult, self-reflection is a heavy task. Because as humans, we tend to overlook things about ourselves. In my case, I didn’t get to fully understand my worldview after I left my former religion. I grew up believing that Jehovah’s Witness is the true religion, the only group of true Christians. But what's interesting is that I didn’t actually fully realize na talagang years of my life, I believed that only one particular group has the monopoly on God’s approval. Kaya nung naging part ako ng Open Table as Ardy, nasa sistema ko pa rin siya. I had this thought na progressive Christian groups or individuals who are progressively leaning lang ang totoong mga Christian. In some degree, yes, we do proclaim God’s radically inclusive love better, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t people from other Christian groups who are also trying to be as Christian as possible and follow Jesus in their own big and little ways. As a matter of fact, I realized I can still actually learn a lot of things from them. One of the things that I am transparent about dito sa journey ko of transforming myself is that prayer is still a difficult thing for me to do. Kaya nung nagkita kami ng friend ko, she's from an evangelical-ish church, I was so jealous that she can actually pour her heart out and articulate her gratitude for the year 2025 so beautifully in just a prayer for dinner. Why did I feel spiritually superior to people who are in non-affirming communities when I know that a personal relationship with God is possible maging sino ka man? Kaya I figured, it's actually a need to have moments of reflection and to understand if we’re truly different from who we were. I actually remembered a conversation from the ministry planning. Apparently, some of us are still uncomfortable in spiritual practices from other cultures and religions. That’s perfectly understandable. Some of us were raised to believe that non-Christians will rot in hell or, dati ako, I believed na papaulanan sila ng meteorites during Armageddon. But as we undergo metanoia, ganung klaseng Kristiyano pa rin ba tayo? Do we still gatekeep the divine and believe that everyone else is damned if they're not Christian? For some people, this first step may look different. Those who aren’t out and are just coming to terms with their gender and sexuality, maybe there's a need to be more aware of an inner voice that screams internalized homophobia or transphobia. For those who are still with their non-affirming church communities, they may need to assess if hiding parts of themselves is worth it just to stay within the faith community, or how their double life affects their genuine connection with God. For those who just left their former churches and are in the process of deconstruction, how's your spiritual life? Have you abandoned prayer and scripture reading? Maybe at this point, some of us are done with these big questions involving identity and spirituality. Then what questions are left for us? Mark 12:31 offers an answer: Love your neighbor as yourself. As we wish to be transformed, we must also think if we lack in charity, if we are greedy, if we participate in exploitation or violence. Big words noh. Sige, liitan natin: kaya ba nating maging mas aware of how hostile we could be in online conversations? Or kaya ba nating maging mas aware sa ating tendencies na maging elitista or classist? Do we converse with kindness and claim accountability sa mga actions natin or are we rude, di nag-iisip bago magsalita (sobrang kota na ko dyan this week) or parang regina george kung umasta? We can ask ourselves, In what ways can I love my neighbor better? As we assess ourselves, we also have to go through Step 1.5: acknowledge who we are or what we’ve done and feel remorse. This part of repentance and yes, repentance as a whole, could be a challenging process for LGBTQ+ people. Yung salitang repent pa nga lang, diba, was weaponized by most of our previous churches. Bakla ka? Repent. Immoral yan? Repent. It was used to make us feel lesser and undeserving of God’s love. But now that we have a better understanding of what it means, I’m telling you, we have to repent. We have to repent because we sin. Walang immunity ang mga bakla dyan. We don’t automatically get an A+ sa commandment ni Jesus. Sumasablay tayo araw-araw. So we don’t get a free pass for the things we’ve done and for the things we’re doing that aren’t aligned with Jesus’ commandment. Yung ating sexuality and gender identity, based on science and biblical-theological scholarship ay hindi naman talaga kasalanan to repent from, pero marami pang ibang bagay na we need to repent and transform from. Regardless of gender and sexuality, we have to feel sad, bad, and remorseful for those things, for the pain we caused others, for the hurt and injustice we inflicted on our friends and people around us, for the bad habits and self-destructive behaviors we let ourselves experience, for the shame we caused ourselves. To be truly transformed, we have to go through those painful moments of being ashamed for the harmful things we've done to other people, and in moments where we are greatly disturbed by godly sorrow. Now, what's the second step? To answer that, let’s further examine the word metanoia. The prefix meta means to change, and the root word noeo means to think, to understand. And so when we combine those morphemes, it’s more accurate to say that metanoia is a specific transformation: it's a change in the way we think, the way we understand things; therefore, it’s a change of our life’s direction. What's that direction? We’re in the season of Advent, and there’s a reason why John’s call for repentance is part of the Advent lectionary. It's a call for us to not just be transformed for ourselves; it's a call for us to be active participants of the Advent. Advent is about longing for the Kingdom of God, for justice, and the end of oppression. But the question is: how? Anong transformation ang ine-expect sa atin? Ine-expect ba sa ating lahat na magiging full-time ministry leaders tayo, magiging full-time social justice advocates or activists? For some people, probably yun ang direkyson nila. Pastor Joseph is an example: from a corporate worker, nag-transform siya into a seminarian hanggang naging ordained pastor. Baka iba sa inyo similar din ang maging transformation. But in Luke 3:10–14, there’s a comforting story. Wala ito sa Matthew. Tinanong ng mga tao si John, “So ano gagawin namin?” Sabi ni John: yung may mga dalawang balabal, i-share niyo yung isa sa wala; yung may food, mag-share din. Tinanong siya ng mga tax collectors, “Teacher, ano gagawin namin?” Sabi niya, “Huwag kayong maningil ng sobra; yung itinakdang tax, yan lang kokolektahin niyo.” Yung mga sundalo tinanong din siya, “Kami, anong gagawin?” Sabi niya, “Huwag kayong mangikil at huwag kayong magparatang ng mali.” Anong matututunan natin sa kwentong yan? Nakita natin na hindi pinag-resign ni John yung tax collectors and soldiers sa kani-kanilang trabaho. Yung mga ordinaryong tao, sinabi niyang magtulungan kayo, share what you have. Hindi naman niya sila niyaya lahat sa wilderness. Therefore, John’s invitation is an invitation to love our neighbor as we love ourselves. That's the direction. And so this also invites us to learn to love ourselves better. Sabi nga ni RuPaul, “If you don't love yourself, how in the hell you gonna love somebody else?” One example that I have is coming out of the closet. Yes, it's indeed difficult to come out, dangerous for some even. But coming out of the closet gives you more opportunities to participate in loving others. Like here at Open Table, you can participate better in the ministry work, testify in front, represent the church, and all other things. And outside Open Table, you can also be more involved in advocacy work. And just in your personal life, you get to express yourself better in public and be more authentic in dating, etc. In the same manner, learning to love our authentic selves, transforming into our true beautiful selves, opens us to more opportunities to express genuine love to other people. However, in all our different ways, totoong hindi madaling mahalin ang sarili ng buo at gayundin ang iba. Magkukulang tayo along the way. Pag nagkamali ba tayo, ibig sabihin failed na tayo sa “transforming ourselves”? No. Remember God’s grace. I want to read what Rev. Nadia Bolz-Weber, the founding pastor of House for All Sinners and Saints, wrote about repentance: “This is the beauty of our faith—that repentance gets to be a continual action. This is the beauty of our faith, not that we once were bad but now we’re good, but that Softly and Tenderly… Jesus is calling us out of the empty promises of our personal and cultural trances and into what is most true and most real—this present moment, where the kingdom of God is at hand… [Repentance] is not like the three tries you have to remember your password before the system locks you out. The gates of repentance are always open.” Five years forward bearing this new name, Ardy, with God's grace and because of love, yes, there are areas of my life that I could say I was able to change significantly. But sometimes I act like a kid, like the sheltered boy that I was. I'm not perfect. But I'm a work in progress, and so are you. We need to be continuously transformed by love and grace. And I hope that in this season of Advent, we spend time to reflect and to be truly transformed. At lalo na malapit na ang 2026, time to create our New Year's resolution na madalas di napapanindigan. But maybe this time around, maybe hindi na natin need hintayin ang New Year. As we observe Advent, let’s allow God to transform us into our true selves: the person God uniquely created and calls us to be. Amen.
