Ireland played a leading role in the movie Braveheart, a bout warrior William Wallace and his fight for Scottish freedom. Hear how that movie put Trimn Castle north of Dublin and a lot of Irish to work. And how that movie got Ireland in the spotlight for more work on the silver screen. Hear the story of that movie, throught the eyes of the locals in this episode of Erin's Isle.
Howard Carter introduces the mini series on the armor of God in Ephesians 6;10-20. Putting it into context and focusing on what we do when we have put our armor on.The first 1 and a half minutes are a video clip of the battle of sterling in the 1995 movie 'Braveheart'. where in the face of the charge of the English heavy Calvary you hear William Wallace (played by Mel Gibson) exhort his men to 'hold, hold, hold".
In this episode, Leslie sits down with writer and editor Daisy Prince to explore the real history behind Outlander. Daisy—whose work has appeared in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Vanity Fair, Vogue, The Telegraph, and Tatler—takes us deep into the fascinating story of Clan Fraser, the real-life Scottish family that inspired the hit series.This conversation spans centuries — from 14th-century Scotland, when Sir Simon Fraser fought alongside William Wallace against the English, to the real events and characters that inspired Outlander. Among them is the infamous 11th Lord Lovat, whose beheading famously gave rise to the phrase “laughing my head off.”Leslie and Daisy also talk about the dashing Brigadier Simon “Shimi” Fraser, a World War II hero who led his men into the D-Day invasion—bagpiper and all. Shimi had a bounty on his head from Hitler, and Winston Churchill once described him as “the most beautiful man who ever cut a throat.”If you're an Outlander fan (or just love a good Scottish saga), you're going to love this one.

Mon. Oct. 27th/25 Join Me Tonight LIVE @6:10pm-8pm EST, as I welcome Brad Burkholder. Brad Burkholder is a 71 poet, author and retired English professor, began seeing a trance channel in 1996 because of a problematic relationship. The channelled spirit, Ramoth, explained that he had been in painful relationships with this woman in at least two past lives when she had been Fanny Brawne and Maud Gonne, and he had been her poet suitors. The spirit brought together the channel, three other clients and Brad. They all had prominent past lives that had intersected many times in history--the American Civil War, William Wallace's insurrection, the Norman invasion, Roland's battle with the Moors, Camelot, the time of Jesus, and the Trojan War. Together with Brad, they learned that they were one of twelve such groups, apparently preparing the way for a new age. They were tasked with combatting the Gray aliens in April 2000, with visiting southern England together later that year and with combatting Satanists, also that year. Afterward, they ceased to function as a group but still remain friends. Brad delayed writing this book until after his retirement for fear of losing his career and retirement income.
Jesus said, "If you remain in my word, you are really my disciples. You will also know the truth, and the truth will set you free" (John 8:31-32). Amen.It is the climactic scene of the movie "Braveheart". The mighty and numerous English army is lined up for battle on one side of the field. On the other side is the ragtag group of Scottish peasants. William Wallace, who has been leading Scots in guerilla warfare against the English, rides his horse back and forth in front of the Scottish army. He addresses the men shouting, "Sons of Scotland, I am William Wallace … and I see a whole army of my countrymen, here, in defiance of Tyranny. You've come to fight as free men, and free men you are. What will you do without freedom? Will you fight?" There are murmurs and denials from the soldiers.One soldier admits, "Fight? Against that? No!" Soldiers yell in agreement. "We will run! And we will live."Wallace challenges, "Aye. Fight and you may die. Run, and you'll live ... at least a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days, from this day to that, for one chance – just one chance – to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives - but they'll never take our freedom!"We love freedom! Especially here in America where colonialists fought the Revolutionary War for freedom from England, and the greatest generations fought in two World Wars to allow freedom to reign around the world. We love our freedom. So, we will blink back tears when we see brave soldiers returning home to the love and hugs of their families. These soldiers go to war to fight for our freedom of . But what are those freedoms? Patriotic Americans will clear their throats, square their soldiers, and speak confidently the words from the Declaration of Independence, "Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."In our text, Jesus clears his throat, squares his shoulders, and speaks confidently to the Jews who believed in him, "If you remain in my word, you are really my disciples. You will also know the truth, and the truth will set you free" (John 8:31-32). The Jews countered with an untruth, "We are Abraham's descendants, and we have never been slaves of anyone. How can you say, 'You will be set free'" (John 8:33)? Their Jewish ancestors had been slaves in Egypt, Babylon, and Persia. These Jews standing before Jesus were presently under Roman rule.These Jews were looking for a Messiah who would come to overthrow the tyranny of Rome and win their freedom from their oppressive lives. But the coming Messiah was already standing right in front of them. He was there to give them a different kind of freedom. It was a freedom from slavery to Satan and the shackles of sin that ensnared them. Jesus answered, "Amen, Amen, I tell you: Everyone who keeps committing sin is a slave to sin. But a slave does not remain in the family forever. A son does remain forever. So if the Son sets you free, you really will be free" (John 8:34-36).In the sermon today, I'm going to tell you several stories of freedom. After hearing these stories, I want you to do two things. Think and pray about your own story of freedom through Jesus. Then consider how you can use any of these stories, in addition to your own story in witnessing to someone you love who has been enslaved by Satan and shackled by their sin. Let them know that Jesus has come as their Messiah to win their freedom!Mary Magdalene had been possessed by seven demons (Luke 8:2). We aren't told what had happened to her or by her to allow these demons to take possession of her body and mind. We only know that she must have been tormented by these demons.Yet the Son of God has authority over these fallen angels who torment his beloved people. Somewhere, Jesus interacted with Mary, and with the power of his words, he dispossessed her of those seven demons. In response, Mary became one of Jesus' most devoted followers. Along with other women, Mary helped financially support Jesus and his disciples. Because he had freed her from the demons' possession, she possessed a strong faith and love for her Freedom Fighter. She was among the group of ladies who gathered at Jesus' tomb on Easter Sunday. Before Jesus appeared to his disciples, his mother, or anyone else, he blessed Mary Magdalene by appearing to her first after his resurrection from the grave.Martin Luther had been oppressed by the devil. Luther struggled mightily with his sin. As a young monk in the monastery, Luther would often flog himself as a form of penance to atone for his sins. He would often wake up at 3 am, fast to an extreme, and enumerate his sins to his father confessor.Luther's self-punishment stemmed from a deep-seated obsession with his own sinfulness and a desperate desire to atone for it. This was because at this time in his life, Martin Luther saw Jesus not as a gracious Savior from sin, but as an angry Judge over sin.Legend has it that the great Reformer once threw an inkwell at the Devil who had been incessantly accusing him. Whether or not this is true, Luther certainly had remarkable fits and fights with the old, evil foe who now means deadly woe.Luther hated the justice of God where he punishes sinners. But by the grace of God, that all changed one night in 1519 in Luther's "tower experience." I'll let him tell you his story in his own words: "But I, blameless monk that I was, felt that before God I was a sinner with an extremely troubled conscience. I couldn't be sure that God was appeased by my satisfaction. I did not love, no, rather I hated the just God who punishes sinners. In silence, if I did not blaspheme, then certainly I grumbled vehemently and got angry at God. I said, 'Isn't it enough that we miserable sinners, lost for all eternity because of original sin, are oppressed by every kind of calamity through the Ten Commandments? Why does God heap sorrow upon sorrow through the Gospel and through the Gospel threaten us with his justice and his wrath?' This was how I was raging with wild and disturbed conscience. I constantly badgered St. Paul about that spot in Romans 1 and anxiously wanted to know what he meant."I meditated night and day on those words until at last, by the mercy of God, I paid attention to their context: 'The justice of God is revealed in it, as it is written: 'The just person lives by faith.' I began to understand that in this verse the justice of God is that by which the just person lives by a gift of God, that is by faith. I began to understand that this verse means that the justice of God is revealed through the Gospel, but it is a passive justice, i.e. that by which the merciful God justifies us by faith, as it is written: 'The just person lives by faith.' All at once I felt that I had been born again and entered into paradise itself through open gates. … I exalted this sweetest word of mine, 'the justice of God,' with as much love as before I had hated it with hate. This phrase of Paul was for me the very gate of paradise." Luther had been set free!By God's grace, our Wisconsin Synod was established 175 years ago as German Lutherans came to America for religious freedom. Through all these years, Christ has been with us in established congregations, home mission churches, and foreign mission fields.Several years ago in an established congregation, I counseled a wife who was having marital issues with her husband. We'll call her "May." In the middle of our counseling, she confessed, "I cheated on my husband 10 years ago. Every time I come into church, I ask God to forgive me for my affair." Her guilt was her penance. This was one of the saddest things I have ever heard. I told her, "Sweetheart, the first time you asked for forgiveness, you were forgiven. 'Satan' means 'Accuser.' He is accusing you day and night of your sin. Your guilt can't make up for your sin. But know that Jesus bled for your sin. He paid for your affair on the cross. His faithfulness to you is more powerful than your unfaithfulness to your husband. He's even removed your guilt. You're free!"These last two stories are from friends of mine who served in the WELS foreign mission field. Rachel tells the story, "Kelly came to the capital to study to be a tour guide back in her hometown. A friend of hers invited her to our Christmas party. They came together. Kelly came not knowing what to expect. She was then invited to an 'English study' at our apartment. She heard God's Great Exchange and began crying because she felt such a huge weight had been lifted off her shoulders."Kelly said, 'Why didn't anyone ever tell me this before? I never knew this!' She then studied with us regularly before returning to her hometown. She was so happy to have learned about the Savior. She was hungry for the words of Scripture. It was awesome to see and so encouraging to all of us too!" Kelly had been set free!Josh, who does one of the podcasts with me, tells this story, "In China, I was speaking to Sam, a college student who was interested in Christianity. I explained the whole story – creation, the fall, redemption, and salvation. Then he spit the whole thing back at me! He said, 'Is this all true?' 'Yes,' I said. Sam replied, 'Then please tell me, is there any reason I should not kill myself tonight? I want to go [to heaven] now!'"Josh explained that purpose was not found in any pursuit outside of Christ, but that also means that here on earth Christ has a purpose for our existence. It also meant not only embracing Jesus as Savior, but also submitting to his will as Lord. It also means that all murder is wrong – even self-murder.Josh continues with his story, "Sam continued Bible study for the rest of the year. He taught me how to properly cook rice … I was doing it wrong. And we spent time together rock climbing the University of Beijing. I baptized him a few weeks before I returned home. This is an experience I count amount the greatest privileges of my life." Sam had been set free!Like Mary, Martin, May, Kelly, and Sam, you are slaves to your sinful nature. You will often feel oppressed by demons. Satan will keep accusing you by first telling you the sin isn't so bad and then after the sin telling you that God can't love a sinner like you. You'll attempt to do penance by overwhelming yourself with guilt. When you look at the evil in our world, you are convinced there are people out there possessed by demons. I don't disagree.Bow your head and admit to God how acutely you feel this slavery and oppression.Silent confession.Brothers and sisters of Jesus, the Messiah of the new covenant has come and he has set you free. The Son of God left his throne in heaven to be nailed upon a wooden cross. He left the right hand of his heavenly Father so he could be forsaken by his heavenly Father. On the cross, Jesus put himself in our dark dungeon and released us into the light. He removed not only your sin, but also the guilt for your sin. Jesus didn't just talk about freedom to the Jews, he won freedom for all people - Mary, Martin, May, Kelly, Sam, and you.You are fully and eternally free from all punishment for your sins. Jesus signed your pardon papers with his blood. He placed his seal on the papers when he broke the seal on his grave. He broke you free from the shackles of your sins. He released you from the guilt that imprisoned you. He gives you hope as you face the very real terror of your inevitable death. You have been set free from all the fear, sin, guilt, and death because Jesus crushed the power of sin, death, and Satan once had over you. You are no longer a prisoner, but a perfect, and perfectly free, child of God.These are stories of freedom. Even more powerful than the story of freedom won by William Wallace against the English. These are stories we are blessed as Lutherans to believe and blessed through the ministry and mission of the WELS to share. Listen and believe these stories of freedom. Apply them to your life. But don't stop there. Share these stories with your loved ones who remain trapped by the devil's lies. Tell them the story of Jesus winning them freedom. Tell them the stories of Mary, Martin, May, Kelly, and Sam. Listen to their story. Respond with your story. Remind them, "If the Son sets you free, you really will be free" (John 8:36). Amen.It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not allow anyone to put the yoke of slavery on you again (Galatians 5:1). Amen.View this sermon (with video and/or audio recording) on our website: https://www.casperwels.com/sermons/freedom/

In dieser Staffel nehmen wir euch mit auf eine Reise ins 13. Jahrhundert, wo wir die Legende und das wahre Leben von William Wallace, dem echten schottischen „Braveheart“, entblättern. Hier gibt es keine romantischen Heldentaten, sondern nur jede Menge Blut, Verrat und die Frage, ob Dudelsäcke wirklich die beste Waffe im Kampf um die Freiheit und Unabhängigkeit Schottlands sind. In Episode 4 ist Wallace nach verlorenem Kampfe auf der Flucht und plant 1305 einen militärischen Neuanfang, aber das Schicksal hat andere Pläne. Wir begleiten ihn auf seinem letzten Weg, der ihn zurück nach Schottland führt, wo Verrat und eine grausame Hinrichtung auf ihn warten. Ein emotionales Finale, das zeigt, dass die heldenhaftesten Legenden im wahren Leben meist kein Happy End haben.

Royce explains why Democrats, who like to blame such tragedies on conservatives and Christians, are to blame for this and all other mass shootings in Christian schools by trans people.Support the showGiveSendGo | Unconstitutional 2A Prosecution of Tate Adamiak Askari Media GroupBuy Paul Eberle's book "Look at the Dirt"Paul Eberle (lookatthedirt.com)The Deadly Path: How Operation Fast & Furious and Bad Lawyers Armed Mexican Cartels: Forcelli, Peter J., MacGregor, Keelin, Murphy, Stephen: 9798888456491: Amazon.com: BooksVoice of the Blue (buzzsprout.com)

Then talk about the EDM scene in Goa. Then Ryan watches the Hunter Biden interview and has some issues with his preparedness to run for president. Then the boys talk about how ex presidents can completely white wash their crimes by pounding booze with people at bars. O’Neill gets mad that Andy hasn’t watched his “skits” on his website. Then Andy walks Ryan through the CIA Simple Sabotage Handbook and O’Neill loses his mind and realizes he could have been the world’s best CIA agent.
Si lo que quieres es un éxito de taquilla con el público gringo, nada mejor que gritar: ¡libertad!. Y en 1995 eso fue lo que hizo “Corazón Valiente” (Braveheart), dirigida, producida y protagonizada por Mel Gibson (antes de convertirse en un fundamentalista religioso psicótico). En una época en la que Hollywood sólo producía películas de acción bien pulidas y comedias ligeras, esta cinta presento la guerra de independencia escocesa de una manera cruda y bruta… y funcionó. Cinco Óscares después, quedó consagrada como la película que resucitó el genero de la épica cinematográfica.A 30 años de su estreno, nos acompaña Luz Adriana Perez-Morales, guionista y productora de ficción y documental, para abordar una pregunta todavía irresuelta: ¿Por qué regresa William Wallace? Y es que, en la película nunca se nos explica por qué deja una vida, con su tío, que a todas luces era mejor, para volver al pueblo en el que vio a toda su familia ser masacrada, y en el que ya no tiene ningún apego o conexión. Esta pregunta resuena con todos y todas: ¿Por qué volvemos a lugares donde no somos bienvenidos, con los exes que nos trataron mal, o a los hábitos que nos hacen daño?
In Episode 128 of Badlands Story Hour, Chris Paul and Burning Bright take a deep dive into the iconic film Braveheart, using it as a lens to examine modern narrative warfare, institutional collapse, and the power of individual courage. Drawing parallels between William Wallace's defiance of tyranny and today's decentralized truth-tellers, the hosts explore how stories, both historical and fictional, shape our understanding of freedom, loyalty, and legacy. As legacy media and regime narratives continue to break down, this episode challenges listeners to consider who's writing the story now—and whether we have the bravery to reclaim it.

Dr. Murray Cook is an archaeologist, author, co-founder and co-director of a field school, and Honorable Research Fellow at Stirling University. His research focuses on the area around Stirling, Scotland and its expansive history.There are Neolithic stone circles, Bronze Age burials, late Iron Age sites that offer a glimpse of life just before the Romans arrived, and artifacts that mark the Roman presence itself.Stirling Castle, built in the 12th century, became the most used royal residence in Scotland for centuries. It is the site where William Wallace defeated the English at the Battle of Stirling Bridge, and where Robert the Bruce claimed victory at the Battle of Bannockburn during the First War of Scottish Independence. The royals of the House of Stewart lived here for generations, including Mary, Queen of Scots. Nearby lie medieval and historic cemeteries with burials of both the famous and the infamous.In this episode, Dr. Cook discusses his research that spans all of Stirling's history, the benefits of slowing archaeological research down to focus on a single area, the importance of telling the stories of humanity's shared past, and the vital role of public outreach in securing the future of archaeology.TranscriptsFor transcripts of this episode head over to: https://archpodnet.com/tpm/19LinksStirling Archaeology SubstackMurray Cook's Author Bio and Links to BooksRampart Scotland Field School - Open to All!See photos related to episode topics on InstagramLoving the macabre lore?

Is anything holding you back from fully embracing Christ?Today's message from Jerry Leachman closes with this prayer, interceding for all istening:"Dear God, there's no catch today. We don't have anything for anybody to join. We don't want anybody's money. We don't want anybody's anything. We're a band of brothers in here this morning. Lord, if there are men here that go, 'You know, I've believed in Christ, but I think the chaplain's right. I've been chasing idols. That's what's been holding me back.'Lord, I pray we just crash and break all the idols, like in the book of Acts. Paul went in and shared Christ with a town, and it says they begin to destroy all their idols. Idols either break our heart, leave us frustrated, or punish us all our days. There may be guys here who go, 'You know, I've never connected with Christ.' They may be looking over the ledge of that crater. I pray they would jump in the arms of Jesus. Now.I pray we all would jump into the crater in the arms of Christ. Lord... when my faith gets really thin, and it does from time to time. I think, 'I can't see you Lord, but You can see me.' Thank God Almighty.Thank you for Eric Liddell's example. He knew You made him fast. These men are so gifted, so talented. I pray they would get a chance to use their gifts, their talents; and when they do, they'd feel Your pleasure. But I pray they'd cease trying to validate themselves, stop wasting their life, covering up, trying to convince everybody else they're somebody they're not. Let them walk out of here free men today, I love the words of William Wallace about to go into impossible battle. He said: 'Men, the moment's going to come for all of us when we die. By God's help, let's just at least die free men.'Lord, I don't want to go to my grave a slave. I don't want to live another day a slave. Free us today, Lord. We're asking You for a miracle here today. In Christ's name, amen. Amen." - Jerry LeachmanJerry Leachman of Leachman Ministries is a favorite speaker at The Center's events. Along with being an associate Chaplain in The NFL for many years, Jerry has done ministry in Guatemala, Scotland, Russia, Europe and Africa as well as all over the U.S. He and his wife Holly have been on Young Life Staff and continue to be involved with Young Life here and also internationally.

Es una de las películas más representativas de los años 90, ganadora del Oscar al mejor film. Con ella Mel Gibson se consagró como director regalándonos una película épica como hacía años que no se veía. Nos referimos, por supuesto, a “Braveheart” la historia del héroe medieval escocés William Wallace. En este episodio os contamos todo sobre ella. También vamos a recordar a Vicente Aranda, fallecido ahora hace diez años, uno de los directores más importantes del cine español durante las décadas de los 80, los 90 y los primeros años del siglo XXI. Hemos charlado con el actor Jack Taylor, un norteamericano que lleva en España casi toda su vida, y en la sección dedicada al cine del Oeste traemos esta semana “Encubridora” de Fritz Lang, con una fascinante Marlene Dietrich de protagonista.

The purpose of this podcast is to help you find healing for your wounds; find hope in your despair; find intimacy in your loneliness; find refuge from the storms of life; Basically, to help you find a deeper walk with Jesus. There is one thing I know after having lived all these years: God wastes nothing. Not our sorrows. Not our wounds. Not even our failures. Hi. I am your host, Dennis Jernigan, and I am so excited about the next few weeks of the Dennis Jernigan podcast because I absolutely love the subject matter that we're covering. I really do. For the past few weeks I have been sharing the stories behind songs inspired by a fantasy book series I wrote for my children and grandchildren…but something I have forgotten to tell you (I will blame my forgetfulness on the Parkinson's) is that the underlying reason I wrote these stories was to paint an allegorical picture of what it means to come to Christ for salvation and how to view the word from Christ's point of view. I wrote the books in such a way that people would not be deterred from reading the books if they felt they had overtly religious undertones. You will be able to find pictures of Jesus and discovering none's identity in Christ painted throughout The Chronicles of Bren. And there's one more thing to tell you. I have actually written 2 series of books. The first series is called The Chronicles of Bren Trilogy and the second series (which is about to have its 4th book completed) called The Bairns of Bren. This second series features my grandchildren as the heroes of the stories and it has become quite a wild ride. I'll let you know when book 4 in that series is available. You are used to hearing me share the stories behind songs of worship and praise; songs of ministry; songs of comfort; songs from Father God's heart to ours…but the song I am sharing today was inspired by a 3-book series of fantasy novels I wrote for my children and grandchildren way back in 2015. The first book in this three-book series is called Captured (Book 1 in The Chronicles of Bren Trilogy). You may be asking yourself, “Why would a worship leader and song receiver write series of books and songs about a fantasy world?” I won't share everything that has led me to the writing of fantasy novels. You can simply listen to the podcasts from the episode called “Riding the Wind” all the way up to today's episode in order to catch up. This week's song, “Creatures”, was received sometime in 2015 0r 2016 is a very scary song and was intended to paint a picture of the evil that is at work in the spiritual realm. Some of the creatures are good. Some are evil. My goal was to teach my children and grandchildren to walk in discernment and to trust their consciences and to remember that the enemy sometimes presents himself as an angel of light. My desire is that my grandchildren would learn to be vigilant because the enemy goes about like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour with his lies. I'll just mention a few of the lyrics that are meant to instill that vigilance. Better watch out. Better watch out When you pass through Forest or valley Whatever you do Better watch out Better watch Whatever you do Better be watching But who's watching who? Following is a list of the creatures found in Bren. Ogres, Werewolves, Terrebithians (a race of men who live under the ground), Hawken (Hawk people who are faifthul to Bren), Wolfen (wolf people who are faithful to Bren), and Treesant (faithful, yet cautious of Bren). Swine rats, demons, unicorns (always good), dragons (fifty fifty chance of being good), fiends (never a good thing), Witches (never good), warlocks (never good). Captured is a tale as old as time. Day at war with night. I painted a saga of peril and balanced it with faith, because I want my grandchildren to know life is not always easy but it always best lived by walking in faith with Jesus Christ. In this story The Founders represent the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Let me highlight a couple of the creatures to give you some insight as to why I created them. Sylvan – Treesants – These people of the forest – tree spirits, if you will – were inspired by my love for the woods. On our farm, we have acres and acres of forest. In fact, my sons and I have cut trails through the forest and have built a campground in those woods. The campground sits atop a small hill we have dubbed Stirling Mountain after the famous battle of Stirling depicted in the movie about William Wallace, Braveheart. As a teenager studying vocational agriculture, I actually spent time studying trees and was tested on identifying various species native to Oklahoma. Throughout the history of fantasy and mythological writings there have been depictions of tree spirits. I had to include my own version in this story. The Treesants – Sylvan in particular – represent the mystery of life and the joy of trying to unravel the mystery…which Leonolis never does. But I don't think he will ever stop trying. After all, isn't that where the fun is? Swine Rats – This particular creature was conjured up in my mind by the various wild animals I have experienced throughout my life – especially when growing up in the country. We often see coyotes and deer and bobcats and skunks and woodchucks and raccoons and squirrels and possums. When I was a boy in FFA, I had show animals. I bought my first pig to show at livestock shows when I was a freshman in high school. The pig was purchased from a friend who lived ten miles away. After getting the pig home and placed in the enclosure I had prepared for her, she promptly escaped! I searched for a couple of weeks to no avail. After a futile period of searching, I gave up. A week after my search ended I receive a call from the friend I had bought the pig from. He told me the pig had come back to his birthplace! As I secured the enclosure and went to once again bring my pig home, I could not help but imagine what she had endured and all she might have gone through just to make it those weeks alone in her incredible journey. All of that helped inspire the swine rats. I combined rats with a pig just because rats personify dirty, rotten, scoundrels, soaked in evil to me! My grandchildren love to scare me and I love to scare them when it is apprpriate. I do not want them to walk in fear but learn to discern when fear comes it can serve as a warning to be alert and to get themselves out of harm's way if necessary. This is meant to be a scary song and is meant to remind us to walk in the light but walk prepared to stand against the darkness with the light of Jesus Christ. SONG [1Pe 5:8 NIV] 8 Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. I believe the roar of the enemy, Satan, is simply lies…noise meant to cause fear and to lead to temptation. I also believe he is like a lion who, though he makes a lot of noise, has no teeth because his only power over us is deception. It would do us all good to remember that. I hope this series of songs on my podcast has not been too off-putting for you. These stories truly do give me an inside track to the hearts of my grand children. Many of them are getting old enough now to understand the allegory and the meaning behind it and for that I am grateful. I hope you find joy and encouragement as you read the books and listen to the songs. They really are refreshing ways to help you find Jesus even through the most difficult times of life.

Esta semana viajamos desde la Irlanda que buscó su independencia hasta la Escocia de las highlands. Michael Collins, uno de los fundadores del IRA y William Wallace, el patriota escocés son los protagonistas de nuestro espacio. Conoceremos quiénes eran, nos moveremos entre batallas medievales y guerra urbana en tiempos convulsos. Dos historias que no puedes perderte y que hablan de opresión de la incesante búsqueda de la libertad, a veces con métodos más que discutibles.
Biographies are very interesting. The are hundreds that have been made over the years that have not only been entertaining but also are educational in some way. Learning about an event or a person that has made an impact in some way in the past, in a movie, has always been something fans have been going to the theatre ever since the start of cinema. Obviously, we want some truth to what we are watching. So in retrospect, it is very disappointing to find out how inauthentic Braveheart's story is. Mel Gibson directed and starred in this epic film about William Wallace, a man who helped give Scotland its independence from England. However, was he truthful with what actually took place? Does it matter? After 30 years, does this film still hold up? Is it still worthy of the top prize at the Academy Awards? Listen to film critic Jack Ferdman's take on it as he analyzes everything about Braveheart, as well as many other films from that year, and hear which film he gives his Rewatch Oscar of 1995.Download, listen, and share ALL Rewatching Oscar episodes.SUBSCRIBE and FOLLOW Rewatching Oscar:Website: https://rewatchingoscar.buzzsprout.comApple Podcasts/iTunesSpotifyGoogle PodcastsiHeart RadioPodchaserPodcast AddictTuneInAlexaAmazon Overcasts Podcast Addict Player FMRSS Feed: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1815964.rssWebsite: https://rewatchingoscar.buzzsprout.comSocial Media Links: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, BlueSkyShare your thoughts and suggestions with us through:Facebook Messanger or email us atjack@rewatchingoscar.com or jackferdman@gmail.comMusic by TurpacShow Producer: Jack FerdmanPodcast Logo Design: Jack FerdmanMovie (audio) trailer courtesy of MovieClips Classic TrailersMovie (audio) clips courtesy of YouTubeSupport us by downloading, sharing, and giving us a 5-star Rating.

Historia Szkocji to opowieść o niezłomnych wojownikach, buntach przeciw imperiom i walce o niezależność, która trwa do dziś! W tym odcinku przeniesiemy się na tereny spowite mgłą, gdzie rodziła się tożsamość Szkotów. Przejdziemy przez starożytne czasy Piktów, czasy panowania Rzymian, narodziny Królestwa Alby, epokę wikingów, burzliwe wojny z Anglią, aż po współczesne dążenia do niepodległości. Część I: Kolebka – w krainie mgieł i wojowników Zaczynamy w czasach pierwszych osadników, którzy zamieszkiwali te tereny już tysiące lat temu. Jak wyglądało ich życie w surowym klimacie? • Rzymianie w Szkocji – Gdy potęga Imperium Rzymskiego rozrastała się, napotkała na swojej drodze obrońców z północy Brytanii. Mimo budowy Wału Hadriana i Antonina, Rzymianie nigdy nie podbili całkowicie szkockich ziem. Czym był ten mur i jak wpłynął na rozwój regionu? • Powstanie Królestwa Alby – Jak doszło do utworzenia pierwszego szkockiego państwa? W jaki sposób Kenneth MacAlpin zjednoczył Piktów i Szkotów, tworząc zalążek przyszłej Szkocji? • Era Wikingów – brutalne najazdy Skandynawów, ich osady i wpływ na kulturę oraz politykę regionu. Część II: Unia – krew, pot i miecz Przez wieki Szkoci walczyli o swoją niepodległość, a legendy takich bohaterów jak William Wallace i Robert Bruce do dziś budzą podziw. • Wojna o niepodległość – jak Wallace i Bruce pokonali Anglików? Jakie taktyki stosowali przeciw liczniejszym wojskom króla Edwarda I? • Dynastia Stuartów i Auld Alliance – szkocko-francuski sojusz, który miał powstrzymać Anglię, ale czy rzeczywiście był skuteczny? • Reformacja w Szkocji – dlaczego kraj, który przez wieki był wierny papieżowi, stał się bastionem protestantyzmu? • Unia Koron i Unia 1707 – czy Szkoci dobrowolnie zgodzili się na połączenie z Anglią, czy też zostali do tego zmuszeni? Jakie konsekwencje miał ten akt? Powstania jakobickie i czystki w Highlands Po Unii w 1707 roku nie wszyscy Szkoci pogodzili się z nowym porządkiem. Zwolennicy dynastii Stuartów podjęli próbę odzyskania tronu dla Jakuba II i jego następców. • Pierwsze Powstanie Jakobickie (1715) – dlaczego się nie powiodło? • Drugie Powstanie Jakobickie (1745–1746) – Bonnie Prince Charlie i bitwa pod Culloden – ostateczna klęska, która zmieniła Szkocję na zawsze. • Czystki w Highlands – jak po powstaniach Anglicy brutalnie rozprawili się z góralami, niszcząc ich kulturę i tradycję. Część III: W kilcie ku referendum – nowoczesna Szkocja Szkoci nigdy nie przestali dążyć do niezależności. XX wiek przyniósł zmiany, które odnowiły dyskusję o suwerenności. • Referendum 2014 – dlaczego Szkoci niemal zdecydowali się na odrębne państwo? • Brexit a Szkocja – czy wyjście z UE oznacza nowy impuls dla niepodległości? Część IV: Mitologia, kultura i popkultura Historia Szkocji to nie tylko bitwy i polityka, ale również bogata tradycja folklorystyczna i kulturalna. • Selkie, Kelpie i Potwór z Loch Ness – czy legendy mają ziarnko prawdy? • Kultura klanowa – czym były klany? • Braveheart – fakty i mity – co w filmie było prawdą, a co hollywoodzką fikcją?

In this episode of The Wandering Pilgrims, we journey through the remarkable life of John Gill, a monumental figure in Reformed theology whose unwavering commitment to Scripture has profoundly influenced the church. Born on November 23, 1697, in Kettering, England, Gill displayed a remarkable intellect from an early age, mastering Latin, Greek, and even teaching himself Hebrew by the age of 11. His passion for biblical languages paved the way for a life dedicated to theological scholarship. Gill's spiritual awakening began with a transformative sermon by William Wallace, leading him to join the Kettering Baptist Church. By 19, he answered the call to ministry, captivating congregations with his profound biblical insights. In 1719, he took on the role of pastor at the strict Baptist church in Horselyown, where he would serve faithfully for over 50 years. His sermons were characterized by their depth and clarity, rooted firmly in Reformed doctrine. Among Gill's most significant contributions are his Verse by Verse Commentary on the Bible and A Body of Doctrinal and Practical Divinity, which collectively provide a thorough exposition of Reformed theology, emphasizing God's sovereignty, grace, and the covenant of redemption. Despite facing accusations of Hyper Calvinism due to his strong stance on predestination and election, Gill's rigorous scholarship and commitment to the authority of Scripture remain undisputed. His influence reached notable theologians such as Charles Spurgeon, who revered Gill's theological insights. Today, John Gill is celebrated as a scholar-pastor whose life exemplifies a dedication to the faithful exposition of God's Word. His legacy inspires us to ground our faith in Scripture and pursue a deeper understanding of God's truths.

In 2011, the night before Christmas, a mother of 3 and student Za'Zell Preston was murdered hours after leaving a Christmas Eve party in California. On Christmas morning her body was found propped up on the sofa, wearing sunglasses, watching her children open presents, in an apartment covered in blood. Her husband William Wallace made phone calls to the entire family, before finally agreeing to call an Ambulance for Za'Zell. But shortly after calling that Ambulance, William would find himself incarcerated awaiting trial, for almost a decade. For the 3 years leading up to her death, William had subjected Za'Zell to a relationship from hell. William's abuse had put Za'Zell in hospital multiple times and he promised to kill her if she ever left Za'Zell would share her emotional turmoil in love on Facebook and desperately tried to fix the man she loved most, even enrolling to study domestic violence herself. But in 2011, with plans to finally leave him for good and become a counsellor to help other women break free from domestic violence, Za'Zell's time to escape with her life, would tragically run out.
