Fatima (Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary)

Wed, 07 Oct 2026 04:00:00 +0000

October 7 celebrates every year The Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary to honor the Blessed Virgin Mary and the power of the Rosary prayer. In each of her six appearances to the three shepherd children (Lucia, Francisco, and Jacinta) between May and October 1917, Mary asked them to pray the Rosary every day. In her July 1917 apparition, Mary taught the children a short prayer to be recited after the Glory Be at the end of each decade of the Rosary: “O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell. Lead all souls to heaven, especially those most in need of thy mercy.” Mary stated that the daily Rosary was essential for bringing an end to World War I and achieving global peace, emphasizing that only through this prayer and conversion could peace be secured. During her final apparition on October 13, 1917—coinciding with the Miracle of the Sun—she identified herself explicitly as "Our Lady of the Rosary." The feast marks a major naval battle on October 7, 1571. A Christian fleet called the Holy League fought the powerful Ottoman Navy. Pope St. Pius V asked all Christians across Europe to pray the Rosary for a safe victory. The smaller Christian fleet won the battle and credited their success to Mary's intercession. Pope Pius V first named the day the Feast of Our Lady of Victory. Later, Pope Gregory XIII changed the name to the Feast of the Holy Rosary. Pope Pius X set the final fixed date of October 7 in 1913. The Catholic Church dedicates the entire month of October to the Holy Rosary. Believers use this month to meditate on the life of Jesus through the prayers of the Rosary. How to pray the Rosary, and its Mysteries (Joyful, Sorrowful, Glorious, and Luminous). HJe304. HJS part 1/5.

Stigmata of Francis

Sun, 04 Oct 2026 16:00:00 +0000

Saint Francis of Assisi Feast Day (October 4) honors the moment Francis received the stigmata—bodily marks resembling the crucifixion wounds of Jesus Christ. St. Francis received the wounds in September 1224 while praying and fasting on Mount La Verna in Tuscany, Italy. Francis is the first historically recorded person to bear the stigmata. The event signifies a deep spiritual union with Christ's passion and love. Saint Francis (1181-1226) was an Italian mystic, poet and mendicant friar who founded the religious order of the Franciscans in the early 13th century. E366.

EXTRA 128. Wampanoag Algonquians

Sat, 03 Oct 2026 04:00:00 +0000

STORY of AMERICA 🇺🇸 Native Americans of the Northeastern Woodlands based in southeastern Massachusetts are called The Wampanoag, meaning People of the First Light. How did these indigenous tribes view themselves and the world around them in the period immediately preceding contact with Europeans? The Wampanoag were part of a larger group of North American Indians known as the Algonquian. They, and many of the other native peoples in New England, spoke a language belonging to the Algonquian language family and is most closely related to those spoken by the Mohican. Algonquian is thus the name of the cultural linguistic group that includes many “tribes”, of which the Algonquins are one. Enjoy this HISTORICAL JESUS Extra.

372. St. Jerome Tomb

Wed, 30 Sep 2026 04:00:00 +0000

September 30 is the annual Feast Day of Saint Jerome (347–420), who was originally interred in Bethlehem, where he died. His original rock-cut tomb is inside St. Jerome’s Cave, a subterranean grotto network located beneath the Church of St. Catherine, right next to the study room where he spent 30 years translating the Latin Vulgate Bible. This church sits immediately adjacent to the famous Church of the Nativity. During the 13th century Crusades, his remains were transferred from Bethlehem to Rome to safeguard them from political conflict and desecration. Saint Jerome is buried at the Basilica of Saint Mary Major, following his death in Bethlehem on September 30, 420 AD. Jerome was a Christian priest and Doctor of the Church best known for translating most of the Bible into Latin, a seminal work known as the Vulgate. He is also the patron saint of translators, librarians, archivists, and biblical scholars.

Archangels

Tue, 29 Sep 2026 04:00:00 +0000

September 29 is the Feast of the Archangels, a Christian celebration honored in Western traditions (also known as Michaelmas) and November 8 in Eastern traditions. Archangels are high-ranking angels in Abrahamic religions who serve as chief messengers and leaders of heavenly hosts. The Main Archangels are Michael: The protector and leader of the heavenly armies who fights against evil; Gabriel: The primary messenger of God who announces major divine plans; Raphael: The healer and guide associated with restoration and protection; and Uriel: Often included as a fourth, known as the angel of light and wisdom. Western Christianity (Catholicism): Explicitly names and venerates Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael from canonical scripture. Eastern Tradition (Orthodox): Recognizes a total of seven principal archangels, including Uriel, Jegudiel, Selaphiel, and Barachiel. In the Gospel of Luke, the celebrated celestial being who tells the Virgin Mary of her Destiny is the Archangel Gabriel. He also announces the impending birth of John the Baptist to his father Zacharias. HJe50.

370. Canadian Martyrs Memorial

Sat, 26 Sep 2026 16:00:00 +0000

September 26 is the annual feast day of the Canadian Martyrs. In the United States, this feast day is celebrated on October 19 where the group is officially referred to as St. John de Brébeuf, Isaac Jogues, and Companions, but they are commonly known as the North American Martyrs. The date of October 19 was selected because it closely follows the martyrdom date of St. Isaac Jogues, who was killed on October 18, 1646, in present-day Auriesville, New York. Jesuit missionaries from Sainte-Marie among the Hurons were ritually tortured and killed on various dates between 1642-49 in Canada, in what is now southern Ontario, and in upstate New York, during the warfare between the Iroquioan tribes the Mohawk and the Huron. They have subsequently been canonized and venerated as the Canadian or North American martyrs by the Catholic Church (René Goupil, Isaac Jogues, Jean de Lalande, Antoine Daniel, Jean de Brébeuf, Gabriel Lalemant, Charles Garnier, Noel Chabanel). HNAe196 Jesuit Martyrs.

Flight into Egypt by The Holy Family who flees from King Herod's wrath. Loss of Jesus in the Temple, when Mary and Joseph search three days for their young son in Jerusalem. Meeting Jesus on the Way to Calvary, when Mary encounters her son carrying the cross. The Crucifixion, when Mary stands faithfully at the foot of the cross. Taking Down from the Cross, when Jesus' body is removed and placed in her arms; and finally The Burial of Jesus: When her dead son is laid in the tomb. Now, let's experience perhaps the deepest of these sorrows with Breathe Bible.

365. Albert of Jerusalem

Mon, 14 Sep 2026 16:00:00 +0000

September 14 is the annual commemoration of Saint Albert of Jerusalem (1149-1214). A group of Christian hermits settled on Mount Carmel—the biblical site associated with the Prophet Elijah (900-850 BC). These hermits built a chapel dedicated to Mary and eventually became known as the Brothers of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. They viewed Mary as their spiritual mother and the "Lady of the place," integrating the contemplation of Elijah with devotion to the Virgin. Central to this devotion is the Brown Scapular. Saint Albert of Jerusalem was an Italian canon lawyer, bishop, and Patriarch of Jerusalem who is best known for writing the foundational Rule of Life for the Carmelite Order.

364. Exaltation of the Cross

Mon, 14 Sep 2026 04:00:00 +0000

September 14 is the annual celebration of the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross commemorates the discovery of the True Cross by St. Helena, the dedication of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and the cross as the triumphant symbol of salvation, transforming an instrument of torture into a sign of victory. The Feast honors the Cross upon which Jesus was crucified to redeem the world from sin, serving as a reminder of God's love and the victory of life over death. The feast originated in the 4th century with St. Helena's discovery of the True Cross in Jerusalem around 326 AD and the subsequent dedication of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in 335 AD. While Good Friday focuses specifically on the suffering of Christ's passion, the Feast of the Exaltation focuses on the triumph of the cross itself, and is commemorated by Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, and Protestant Lutherans & Anglicans.

Name of Mary (Holy Day)

Sat, 12 Sep 2026 04:00:00 +0000

The Feast of the Most Holy Name of the Blessed Virgin Mary is a liturgical celebration held annually on September 12. The celebration began in Spain in 1513. Pope Innocent XI extended it to the entire Western Church in 1683 to thank Our Lady for the victory of Poland over the Ottoman Empire at the Battle of Vienna. The name Mary derives from the Hebrew Miryam or Aramaic Maryam. The name is honored because it belongs to the Mother of God, representing purity, grace, and maternal intercession. Enjoy a reading from the Gospel of Luke, chapter 1.

Fri, 11 Sep 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Gospel of Matthew 25:1-13 relates Jesus' teachings of the Parable of the Ten Virgins comparing the kingdom of heaven to bridesmaids waiting for a bridegroom. Five virgins were wise and had extra oil for their lamps, while five were foolish and ran out of oil. When the bridegroom arrived late, the foolish virgins went to buy more oil and missed the wedding, while the wise virgins were welcomed in. The parable teaches that people should always be prepared and watchful for the coming of Christ. Enjoy this ENCORE Presentation!

362. Anne and Joachim

Wed, 09 Sep 2026 04:00:00 +0000

September 9 annually celebrates The Synaxis of Saints Joachim and Anne, the birth parents of Mary, and the maternal grandparents of Jesus — according to long-standing Christian tradition and ancient apocryphal texts, as they are not named in the canonical Gospels. Synaxis is a Greek term that means a "gathering" or "assembly" for religious worship. Eastern Orthodox and certain Eastern Catholic churches (such as the Maronite Church) recognize this Synaxis. The joint feast day of Anne and Joachim is celebrated every year on July 26 by Catholic and Protestant Anglican & Episcopal Churches. The couple are recognized as the patron saints of grandparents and elders. Anne is also a patron of mothers, women in labor, and childless couples.

361. Nativity of Mary (commemoration)

Tue, 08 Sep 2026 04:00:00 +0000

September 8 annually celebrates The Feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The date (marked on Roman Catholic Church, Byzantine Orthodox Church, and many Protestant Anglican & Lutheran calendars) falls exactly nine months after the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception on December 8, which marks Mary's conception. Most saints are remembered on the anniversary of their death (their "birthday to heaven"), but the Church celebrates the physical birth ("nativity") of only three people: Jesus on December 25, St. John the Baptist on June 24, and the Blessed Virgin Mary on September 8. Christians view Mary's birth as the turning point that prepared the way for the arrival of Jesus Christ. The Bible does not mention Mary's birth. Instead, details about her parents, Sts. Joachim and Anne, come from early Christian tradition and the apocryphal Protoevangelium of James. Let’s explore the birth of Mary, mother of Jesus, using this same apocryphal text.

The Father and working Sons parable (Labor Day SPECIAL)

Mon, 07 Sep 2026 04:00:00 +0000

September 7 is Labor Day, so let's revisit Jesus telling the story of a father who asks his two sons to work in his vineyard in the Gospel of Matthew (21:28-32). The first son initially refuses but later changes his mind and works. The second son agrees to work but then doesn't. The father's will is done by the first son, who repents and obeys, while the second son, who makes a false commitment, doesn't fulfill it. E242.

Historical Revisionism

Fri, 04 Sep 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Searching for the Historical Jesus requires mastering various academic disciplines. A core concept in historiography, historical revisionism is the reinterpretation of a historical account that usually involves challenging the established, accepted or traditional views held by scholars about a historical event or time-span or phenomenon, introducing new or contrary evidence, or restating the motivations and decisions of the people involved.

354. Passion of John the Baptist

Sat, 29 Aug 2026 04:00:00 +0000

The Feast of the Passion (or Beheading) of Saint John the Baptist is commemorated annually on August 29. It marks the martyrdom and death of John the Baptist, unlike his other major feast on June 24, which celebrates his birth. The word "passion" comes from the Latin word passio, which means "suffering" or "enduring." Christians believe John the Baptist's death mirrors Christ's ultimate sacrifice. The Church uses "passion" to elevate John's death above common martyrdom. John the Baptist and Jesus are the only figures whose deaths are considered liturgical "passions."

E236. Pericope Adulterae

Tue, 25 Aug 2026 04:00:00 +0000

The Woman Caught in Adultery (adulterae) is a New Testament passage (pericope) that relates a message of mercy and forgiveness balanced with a call to holy living have endured in Christian thought. Both "let him who is without sin cast the first stone" and "go, and sin no more" have found their way into common usage. The English idiomatic phrase to "cast the first stone" is derived from this passage. The passage has been taken as confirmation of Jesus's ability to write, otherwise only suggested by implication in the Gospels, but the original word in John 8:8 could mean "draw" as well as "write".

Queenship of Mary (Biblical foundation)

Fri, 21 Aug 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Celebrated annually on August 22, the eighth day (the octave) after the Solemnity of the Assumption (August 15), the Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary is an official liturgical feast day linking Mary's bodily assumption into heaven with her coronation as queen. Established in 1954 by Pope Pius XII, the day honors Mary as the Mother of Jesus, designated by Christians as the King of Kings, and recognizes her unique role and spiritual intercession in heaven and earth. Chapter 12 from the Book of Revelation describes a "woman clothed with the sun" who gives birth to a male child, which some Christian interpreters view as a symbolic representation of Mary crowned in heavenly glory, thereby providing biblical foundation and support for the Queenship of Mary.

E235. Story of the Adulteress

Mon, 17 Aug 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Jesus and the Woman taken in Adultery is a story found in the Gospel of John. There is, however, a broad academic consensus that the passage is a later interpolation added after the earliest known manuscripts of the Gospel of John. Nevertheless, many scholars conclude that the story does record an actual event in the life of Jesus and believe it was a well-known story circulating in the oral tradition about Christ, which at some point was added in the margin of a manuscript.

Dormition (Gospel example)

Sun, 16 Aug 2026 16:00:00 +0000

The Gospels of Mark (5:21–43) and Luke (8:40–56) present the story of Jairus and his 12-year-old daughter whom Jesus raised from the dead. Some biblical scholars interpret this event as Jesus seeing death as a falling asleep, informing Christians how their transition from one world to the next is seen from God’s perspective. God sees death as a Dormition in anticipation of the greater life to come. A sinless person like the Virgin Mary will eventually experience it in exactly the same way, celebrated annually as the Feast of the Dormition or falling asleep of Mary or Theotokos — a Greek Orthodox title for the Virgin Mary meaning "God-bearer" or "Mother of God".

348. Christian Discoverer of Canada

Fri, 14 Aug 2026 16:00:00 +0000

Let’s conclude the fascinating saga of Catholic sailor Jacques Cartier’s voyages to what would soon be Christian New France. The Kingdom of Saguenay was a fanciful, mythical country rich in gold and diamonds supposedly located, according to the Natives, inland of present-day Quebec City. Cartier tried in vain to reach this realm on several occasions. From 1541 to 43 France attempted to Colonize Canada at the Cap Rouge settlement along the interior of the St.-Lawrence river valley. Cartier’s superior was Jean-François Roberval, a French military officer appointed viceroy of Canada by The Most Christian King Francis the First.

347. God, Diamonds, and Baptisms

Fri, 14 Aug 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Christian voyager Jacques Cartier (1491-1557) led his third and last expedition to the St.-Lawrence river valley in 1541. A new headquarters was established a few miles upstream from the Amerindian village of Stadacona, near the present site of Quebec City. This time Cartier was to be followed by Jean Francois de la Rocque, sieur de Roberval, with a party of colonists. After a wait which lasted through the following winter and the Baptism of Chief Donnacona, Cartier set sail for home, only to meet Roberval’s party in three tall ships in the harbor of what is now St. John’s, Newfoundland. Diamonds of Canada, mined by Jacques Cartier's men at the mouth of Rivière du Cap-Rouge proved to be worthless quartz. Cartier’s "treasure" is remembered in the name of Québec’s Cape Diamond or Cap aux Diamants and also in the French proverb "Faux comme un diamant du Canada", "As false as Canadian diamonds."

345. Christian Explorer

Thu, 13 Aug 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Religious zeal motivated the rulers of European nations to explore and create colonies in North America and to convert the native peoples and sanctify Christian global dominance in the name of Jesus. Catholic navigator Jacques Cartier sailed the Saint Lawrence River (which he named) encountering Lake St-Peter and Nun’s Island. Along the way he visited the future ‘steeples & spires’ cities of Quebec and Montreal where he evangelized the natives by reading the Gospel of John with special emphasis on The Passion of Christ.

Tue, 11 Aug 2026 04:00:00 +0000

The first European explorer known to have sailed up the St. Lawrence River itself was Jacques Cartier. At that time, the land along the river was inhabited by the St. Lawrence Iroquoians. Because Cartier arrived in the estuary on Saint Lawrence's feast day of August 10th, 1535, he named it the Gulf of Saint Lawrence and the St. Lawrence River.

339. Jacques Cartier, Christian

Sun, 09 Aug 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Cartier (1491-1557) grew up in the Catholic port city of Saint-Malo in France where he acted frequently as a godfather and witness in local church baptismal registries. He sailed under the authority of the "Most Christian King" Francis I and voyaged under official royal mandates that explicitly tied French exploration to the service of Catholic Christendom. Cartier famously planted a 30-foot cross at Gaspé Bay in 1534 that symbolized both French sovereignty and the Catholic faith. He also named many of his discoveries in honor of Christianity, including the majestic Saint Lawrence River.

337. Basilica of Saint Mary Major

Wed, 05 Aug 2026 04:00:00 +0000

On August 5, the Catholic Church annually celebrates the Optional Memorial of the Dedication of the Basilica of Saint Mary Major, Santa Maria Maggiore, one of the four most illustrious churches of Rome, along with St. John Lateran, St. Peter, and St. Paul Outside the Walls, and Christendom’s first Marian shrine for pilgrims. An annual feast commemorates a miracle of the snowfall that occurred on the site where the Basilica of St. Mary Major now stands. The Virgin Mary had appeared in a dream to two faithful Roman Christians, as well as to Pope Liberius (352-366), asking that a church be built in her honor on the site where snow would fall on the night of August 5th.That’s why another name for the basilica is Our Lady of the Snow, Saint Mary of the Snow, and the feast of today is Our Lady of Snows, la Virgen Blanca, in Spanish. Nowadays, in Rome, during the Pontifical Mass, the traditional shower of flower petals descends from the ceiling of the basilica to commemorate the miraculous snowfall. Pope Francis’ mortal remains are buried in St. Mary Major. He was laid to rest near the icon of Mary Salus Populi Romani, translated to "Health or Salvation or Protectress of the Roman People." The image is a deeply revered ancient tableau purported to have been painted by Saint Luke the Evangelist. Saint Jerome (347–420) is buried at the Basilica, following his death in Bethlehem on September 30, 420 AD. Jerome was s Christian priest and Doctor of the Church best known for translating most of the Bible into Latin, a seminal work known as the Vulgate. He is also the patron saint of translators, librarians, archivists, and biblical scholars.

Wed, 29 Jul 2026 16:00:00 +0000

July 29 is the annual siblings combined feast day of Saints Mary, Martha, and Lazarus. Luke’s Gospel 10:38-42 tells the tale of Jesus visiting the home of an unnamed village where Martha welcomes him, while her sister Mary sits at Jesus' feet to listen to his teaching.

336. Scofield Reference Bible

Tue, 28 Jul 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Edited and annotated by the American Bible student Cyrus I. Scofield (1843-1921), The Scofield Reference Bible is a widely circulated study Bible. It popularized dispensationalism at the beginning of the 20th century. The Scofield Bible significantly influenced and still guides the Christian Zionist movement—a theological and political movement, primarily within Protestant Evangelicalism, that supports the modern state of Israel and the return of the Jewish people to the Holy Land as a fulfillment of biblical prophecy. Adherents believe this restoration is a prerequisite for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, making their support for Israel a cornerstone of their faith.

E230. The Prodigal Son

Fri, 24 Jul 2026 04:32:05 +0000

One of the most known parables of Jesus in the New Testament, "The Prodigal Son" refers to the story in the Gospel of Luke (15:11-32) about a son who squanders his inheritance and later returns to his father, who welcomes him back with a celebration, despite the anger and jealousy of his brother. Christians believe the parable illustrates God's unconditional love and forgiveness for sinners who repent. The secular term "prodigal son" has also come to mean a son or daughter who leaves home, acts irresponsibly, but then feels remorse and returns. Enjoy this ENCORE Presentation!

Extra 19. Nezahualcoyotl of Mesoamerica

Sat, 18 Jul 2026 16:00:00 +0000

STORY of AMERICA 🇺🇸 Prince Nezahualcoyotl was a scholar, warrior, architect, poet and eventual ruler of the city-state of Texcoco in pre-Columbian era Mesoamerica during the century preceding Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire. The Valley of Mexico is a highlands plateau surrounded by mountains and volcanoes (coterminous with present-day Mexico City) that was the centre for several pre-Columbian civilizations. Generations later, Conquistadors arrived in the New World. They were the cavaliers, knights, soldiers and explorers of the Iberian Empires during the Age of Exploration who sailed the Oceans, conquering territory, opening trade routes, and bringing colonialism to much of the world, including America.

332. Our Lady of Mount Carmel

Thu, 16 Jul 2026 04:00:00 +0000

July 16 is the celebration of a prominent title of the Blessed Virgin Mary — Our Lady of Mount Carmel. The devotion traces back to 12th-century hermits living on Mount Carmel in the Holy Land. She is especially known as the patroness of the Carmelite Order and the Brown Scapular. The title originates from a group of Christian hermits led by St. Berthold (1140-95) and St. Brocard (1170-1231) who settled on Mount Carmel—the biblical site associated with the Prophet Elijah (900-850 BC)—with the blessing of St. Albert, the Latin Patriarch of of Jerusalem (1149-1214). These hermits built a chapel dedicated to Mary and eventually became known as the Brothers of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. They viewed Mary as their spiritual mother and the "Lady of the place," integrating the contemplation of Elijah with devotion to the Virgin. Central to this devotion is the Brown Scapular. According to Carmelite tradition, Mary appeared to St. Simon Stock (1165-1265), a leader of the order, on July 16, 1251, and presented him with the scapular. She promised that those who die wearing it would be preserved from eternal fire. The scapular serves not as a charm, but as a sacramental sign of Mary's protection and a commitment to living a life of prayer and devotion. Feast Days associated with Carmelites: St. Berthold (March 29) St. Simon Stock (May 16) Our Lady of Mount Carmel (July 16) St. Brocard (September 2) St. Albert of Jerusalem (September 14) Feast of All Carmelite Saints (November 14) Commemoration of All Carmelite Souls (November 15).

329. Christian Existentialism

Thu, 09 Jul 2026 04:00:00 +0000

The Danish philosopher and theologian Soren Kierkegaard (1813-55) argued that the universe is fundamentally paradoxical, and that its greatest paradox is the transcendent union of God and humans in the person of Jesus Christ. Christian existentialism relies on Kierkegaard's understanding of Christianity addressed in themes such as authenticity, anxiety, love, and the irrationality and subjectivity of faith, rejecting efforts to contain God in an objective, logical system. To Kierkegaard, the focus of theology was on the individual grappling with subjective truth rather than a set of objective claims.

328. Most Precious Blood

Wed, 01 Jul 2026 04:00:00 +0000

The Feast of the Most Precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ is celebrated annually on July 1st, a date fixed by Pope St. Pius X. The entire month of July is dedicated to the Precious Blood, focusing on Christ’s sacrifice on the cross, his resurrection, and the Eucharist. Origin: Instituted for the universal Church in 1849 by Blessed Pope Pius IX to mark his return from exile, later elevated in rank by Pope Pius XI in 1933. Significance: It honors the blood shed by Jesus for humanity's redemption, specifically focusing on the blood shed during the Passion and the blood/water that flowed from his side, as described in the Gospel. Liturgical Focus: It highlights the blood of the New Testament, the "fountain of salvation" that cleanses souls and is present on the altar during the Mass. Traditional Calendar: While not in the current Ordinary Form (Novus Ordo) calendar, it remains a major feast in the Traditional Latin Mass calendar on July 1st. Related Devotions: The month of July is traditionally dedicated to the Precious Blood, encouraging prayers like the Chaplet of the Precious Blood and the Litany of the Most Precious Blood. While the specific July 1st feast is focused on the Precious Blood itself, it is closely related to the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi), which occurs on a different date based on the Easter cycle.

E222. The Great Man Theory

Tue, 30 Jun 2026 04:39:01 +0000

From a purely secular historical viewpoint, does Jesus of Nazareth fall within the category of Great Men? A unique 19th-century approach to the study of history was known as the 'Great Man' view of History, according to which history can be largely explained by the impact of great men, or heroes: highly influential and unique individuals who, due to their natural attributes, such as superior intellect, heroic courage, extraordinary leadership abilities or divine inspiration, have a decisive historical effect.

324. Nativity of John the Baptist

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 04:00:00 +0000

June 24 is St. John’s Day, one of the oldest and highest-ranking Christian feasts. It celebrates the miraculous birth of the prophet who prepared the way for Jesus Christ. This annual liturgical feast is also known as The Feast of the Nativity of John the Baptist, kept in the Catholic Church, Eastern Orthodox Church, Anglicanism, and Protestant Lutheranism. This special day observes the story of the Jewish high priest Zechariah, his wife Elizabeth, and the birth of their son John the Baptist who proclaimed the coming Messiah. The sole biblical account of the birth of John the Baptist comes from the Gospel of Luke. Only three birthdays are celebrated on the traditional liturgical calendar: Jesus (Christmas), the Virgin Mary (Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary), and John the Baptist. This type of feast is thus a rare observance & is symbolically timed and placed exactly six months before Christmas, aligning with the Gospel of Luke's account of the Annunciation. It is also tied to the summer solstice, reflecting Saint John’s humble words about Christ: "He must increase, but I must decrease."

John the Baptist (SPECIAL 1 of 2)

Tue, 23 Jun 2026 04:00:00 +0000

The Nativity of John the Baptist is a Christian high-ranking liturgical feast day observed annually on 24 June by the Catholic Church, Eastern Orthodox Church, Anglicanism, and Lutheranism. It is one of only two feast days marking a saint's earthly birth (the other being the nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary on 8 September); all other saint’s days mark their deaths or some other important event. The sole biblical account of the birth of John the Baptist comes from the Gospel of Luke which states that John was born six months before Jesus; thus, the feast of John the Baptist’s birth was fixed in the 4th century A.D. on 24 June, six months before Christmas. In the Roman calendar, 24 June was the date of the summer solstice, and Saint John's Eve is closely associated with Midsummer festivities in Europe.

E219. Authorized KJV

Mon, 22 Jun 2026 04:00:00 +0000

In 1611, the original printing of the King James Version (KJV) Bible was published by Robert Barker, the King's Printer, as a complete folio Bible. The original printing was made before English spelling was standardized and there were no illustrations at all in the Authorized Version, the main form of decoration being the historiated initial letters provided for books and chapters – together with the decorative title pages to the Bible itself, and to the New Testament. The Authorized Version's written style is an important part of its influence on English, and its spread throughout North America. Enjoy this ENCORE Presentation!

322. Juneteenth, MLK Dream speech (2nd half)

Fri, 19 Jun 2026 16:00:00 +0000

"I Have a Dream" is a public speech that was delivered by American civil rights activist and Baptist minister Martin Luther King Jr. during the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom on August 28, 1963. MLK was a Baptist minister, deeply rooted in the African-American Christian tradition, who became a pivotal leader in the Civil Rights Movement, drawing his powerful oratory and philosophy of nonviolent resistance from his faith and biblical teachings. He co-pastored Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta with his father and was a Protestant Christian, a denomination that grew from the Reformation started by the original Martin Luther, whom King Jr. was named after. Let's pay tribute to Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. on Juneteenth National Independence Day, which annually commemorates on June 19 the emancipation of enslaved African Americans. A descendant of slaves, MLK's legacy is the powerful story.

320. St. Vitus Dance

Thu, 18 Jun 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Cursed by Saint Vitus? A strange medieval affliction caused a mass hysteria event in Europe where people inexplicably and uncontrollably danced for weeks, leading to several deaths from exhaustion. Likely caused by extreme stress, famine, and disease, victims believed they were cursed by St. Vitus (290-303), an early Christian martyr during the Diocletianic Persecution from Sicily and patron saint of dancers, actors, and epileptics, traditionally associated with healing neurological disorders — specifically Sydenham's chorea known as "St. Vitus’ Dance". Dancing sickness or disease was a documented, fatal phenomenon. This and other bizarre events lead up to the infamous Massachusetts Salem Witch Trails that took place in 1692. His Feast Day is June 15.

Corpus Christi scripture (Mark 14: 1-42)

Sun, 07 Jun 2026 16:00:00 +0000

Feast of Corpus Christi, also known as the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ, celebrates the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. The Feast is traditionally celebrated on the Thursday following Trinity Sunday (which is 60 days after Easter). Thursday was specifically chosen because it is the day of the week that Jesus instituted the Holy Eucharist at the Last Supper. In the USA, Canada, and many other countries, it is observed on the Sunday following Trinity Sunday. This adjustment or Sunday transfer is purely for pastoral reasons, making it easier for the faithful to attend Mass and participate in processions without taking time off during the workweek.

316. Corpus Christi

Sun, 07 Jun 2026 04:00:00 +0000

The feast of the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ, historically known as Corpus Christi, celebrates the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. Instituted in 1264 by Pope Urban IV, this commemoration emphasizes the transubstantiation of bread and wine into the body, blood, soul, and divinity of Jesus Christ. It is often marked by solemn processions, Eucharistic adoration, and special masses. The Feast is traditionally celebrated on the Thursday following Trinity Sunday (which is 60 days after Easter). Thursday was specifically chosen because it is the day of the week that Jesus instituted the Holy Eucharist at the Last Supper. In the USA, Canada, and many other countries, it is observed on the Sunday following Trinity Sunday. This adjustment or Sunday transfer is purely for pastoral reasons, making it easier for the faithful to attend Mass and participate in processions without taking time off during the workweek.

Feast of the Visitation

Sun, 31 May 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Celebrated May 31, the Feast of the Visitation is a Christian holiday commemorating the Virgin Mary’s visit to her pregnant cousin, Elizabeth. As described in the Gospel of Luke (1:39-56), this joyful meeting highlights two miraculous pregnancies and includes Mary reciting the Magnificat (a beautiful prayer praising God). The Magnificat is a hymn, also known as the Canticle of Mary. Its name comes from the incipit of the Latin version of the text taken from the Gospel of Luke where it is spoken by Mary upon the occasion of her Visitation to her cousin Elizabeth. In the narrative, after Mary greets Elizabeth, who is pregnant with John the Baptist, the latter moves within Elizabeth's womb. Elizabeth praises Mary for her faith using words partially reflected in the Hail Mary prayer, and Mary responds with what is now known as the Magnificat, one of the eight most ancient Christian hymns and perhaps the earliest Marian hymn.

313. St. Joan of Arc

Sat, 30 May 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Worldwide religious connections to Joan of Arc (1412-31) span across literature, monuments, and wartime campaigns. The inspired Christian heroine has deeply influenced many cultures and her legacy as a symbol of faith, language, and cultural resilience remains a strong historical thread with connections deeply rooted in cultural identity, spanning monumental art, religious architecture, and media. Although Saint Joan is a distinctly 15th-century icon, her archetype of the young, spiritual, and rebellious warrior has also deeply influenced international Christianity, history and folklore. Her annual Feast Day is May 30.

E208. Parable of the Two Sons

Fri, 29 May 2026 04:00:00 +0000

In the Gospel of Matthew (21:28-32), a father asks his two sons to work in his vineyard. The first son initially refuses but later changes his mind and works. The second son agrees to work but then doesn't. The father's will is done by the first son, who repents and obeys, while the second son, who makes a false commitment, doesn't fulfill it. This parable is used by Jesus to illustrate the difference between hypocrisy and genuine obedience, suggesting that tax collectors and prostitutes might enter the Kingdom of God before those who outwardly profess obedience but lack genuine repentance.

311. Queen of Apostles

Tue, 26 May 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Mary, Queen of Apostles is a title of the Blessed Virgin Mary that honors her essential, maternal role alongside the apostles, providing quiet guidance and prayer in the Upper Room as they waited for the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. The title's scriptural Roots draws primarily from the Acts of the Apostles (Acts 1:13-14), which describes Mary praying with the apostles as the Church was being formed. She is revered by certain religious orders for her evangelizing spirit and her example of how to present Jesus to the world. The liturgical feast of Mary, Queen of Apostles is celebrated on the Saturday immediately following the Solemnity of the Ascension.

308. Is Evil Parasitic upon the Good?

Thu, 21 May 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Although some view wickedness and sin as a corruption of the virtuous, according to Jesus of Nazareth in the Gospel of Matthew 13:24-30, one must be very careful to extricate the evil without destroying the good.

Père Marquette (part 2 of 2)

Mon, 18 May 2026 16:00:00 +0000

May 18 marks the anniversary of Father Jacques Marquette’s death in 1675. In the Roman Catholic Church, particularly within the Jesuit order, he is memorialized as a dedicated missionary and explorer. Marquette does not have an official universal feast day in the Church because he has not been canonized as a saint. He is currently recognized by the Church as a "Servant of God," meaning a formal cause for his canonization is underway. The Great Lakes and the Upper Mississippi regions were explored by young Jesuit clergyman, such as Jacques Marquette, known as ‘God’s Soldiers’ who evangelized indigenous peoples throughout the vast territories of 17th century New France.

Does the New Testament fulfill the Old? Typological patterns in Scripture are featured as real phenomena involving persons and events that correspond and anticipate future fulfillment in similar, yet different persons and events. Typology describes a certain approach to reading the Bible based on a doctrine of theological types employing the study of, analysis, or classification based on categories. A Typologist studies how the New Testament foreshadows the Old, holding that things in Christian belief and Gospels are prefigured or symbolized by things in the Old Testament, in a sense, created to serve as prefigured shapes of what Christ would do.

300. Queen of May

Fri, 01 May 2026 04:00:00 +0000

The long-standing tradition of dedicating the month of May to the Virgin Mary began in the 13th century, though it became widely popular in the 1700s, particularly through the influence of the Jesuits. This month-long devotion's origins and historical development emphasized a christian custom that honors her as the Mother of God and Mother of the Church and highlights her role in salvation history and welcomes the spring season as a symbol of new life. May is considered the peak of spring in the Northern Hemisphere, with flowers and greenery representing new life, which is linked to Mary bringing Jesus into the world, symbolizing her queenship and purity.

Gospel of Mark (Feast of St. Mark the Evangelist)

Fri, 24 Apr 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Celebrated on April 25th in the Roman Catholic, Protestant Anglican, and Orthodox traditions, Saint Mark's Day is often marked by reading the Gospel of Mark, which is the shortest of the four Gospels and focuses on Jesus as a man of action. In some traditions, particularly in Venice, where he is the patron saint, the Feast of St. Mark is a day of festive celebrations, including the custom of giving a rosebud, or bocolo, to loved ones. While not one of the twelve apostles, Mark was a follower of St. Peter and recorded his eyewitness accounts of Jesus's life. He is often depicted as a winged lion, and is recognized as the founder of the Christian Church in Alexandria, and is also the patron saint of interpreters, lawyers, prisoners, and Venice.

Believed to be the earliest extant Gospel and the second of the four canonical Gospels and one of the three synoptic Gospels. Mark’s gospel tells of the ministry of Jesus from his baptism by John the Baptist to his death, the burial of his body, and the discovery of his empty tomb. It portrays Jesus as a teacher, an exorcist, a healer, and a miracle worker, though it does not mention a miraculous birth or divine pre-existence. Jesus refers to himself as the Son of Man. He is called the Son of God but keeps his messianic nature secret; even his disciples fail to understand him. All this is in keeping with the Christian interpretation of prophecy, which is believed to foretell the fate of the messiah as suffering servant.

Thu, 23 Apr 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Unable to perform Miracles in Nazareth

Wed, 22 Apr 2026 04:35:45 +0000

MIRACLES — "A prophet is not without honor, except in his hometown and among his relatives and in his own household". Jesus said this in Nazareth, where he was rejected by his family and neighbors. The people of his home town knew Jesus well, but they didn't believe who he was. They called him "the son of Mary" to reject his virgin birth and Messianic claims. Jesus was unable to perform miracles in Nazareth because of their lack of faith.

295. Feast of Kateri Tekakwitha (April 17)

Fri, 17 Apr 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Born in the Mohawk village of Ossernenon, in present-day New York State, Saint Kateri Tekakwitha (1656-80) and her family contracted smallpox in an epidemic; she was the only one of the family to survive, but had scarring on her face. She was influenced by French Jesuit missionaries and converted to Catholicism at age 19. After taking a vow of perpetual virginity, she left her village, and moved to the Jesuit mission village of Kahnawake, just south of Montreal, Canada. There she died five years later on April 17th, respected for her piety and good works. She was beatified in 1980 by Pope John Paul II, and canonized by Pope Benedict XVI at Saint Peter's Basilica on 21 October 2012. Saint Kateri Tekakwitha, known as the "Lily of the Mohawks," is the first recognized Indigenous North American saint. Her feast day is April 17 in Canada and July 14 in the United States. She is the patron saint of ecology, the environment, and Native American people. Part 1 of 3.

Immaculate Conception (Feast of St. Bernadette)

Thu, 16 Apr 2026 16:00:00 +0000

Celebrated annually on April 16 as a solemn feast day, the anniversary of Bernadette Soubirous' death in 1879. The Immaculate Conception’s observance began with a Papal encyclical by Pope Pius IX, when he formally defined the dogma of the Immaculate Conception in 1854. The Immaculate Conception is the dogma that the Virgin Mary was conceived without original sin. This doctrine states that Mary was preserved from the "stain of sin" from the first moment of her conception through a unique grace from God, granted in anticipation of her role as the mother of Jesus. The annual Feast Day of Our Lady of Lourdes was established in 1890 for February 11 by Pope Leo XIII. Ee263.

E195. Jesuit Missionaries

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 16:00:00 +0000

The Company of Jesus (to indicate its military spirit) also called "The Society of Jesus", were linguists, explorers and ethnographers. They learned New World Indigenous languages and customs, developed dictionaries and grammars, translated and preserved much of the history and traditions in their documents—which include details of their missions and activities and both the successes and failures of the Jesuits in their attempts to convert Indigenous peoples. In North America, their goal was to bring lost souls to Christianity and they were willing to endure hardships and to shed their blood to succeed. Enjoy this ENCORE Presentation!

293. Divine Mercy Sunday

Sun, 12 Apr 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Celebrated on the Sunday after Easter, that is the Second Sunday of Easter, Divine Mercy Sunday is a major feast day in the Catholic Church dedicated to the devotion of God's mercy. Instituted by Pope St. John Paul II in 2000, it stems from revelations to St. Faustina Kowalska (1905-38), offering complete forgiveness of sins and punishment, that is, a plenary indulgence, to those who receive Communion and go to confession. Let's learn more about the theological significance of this feast for many Christians around the world with bible scholar Bishop Robert Barron.

Samuel de Champlain journeyed by canoe up the Ottawa River in 1615, through Lake Nipissing, and down Georgian Bay to the heart of the Huron country, near Lake Simcoe. During these journeys, Champlain aided the indigenous Hurons in battles against the Iroquois Confederacy. As a result, the Iroquois became mortal enemies of the French. In 1627, Cardinal Richelieu (1585-1642), chief minister to King Louis the XIII, chartered in a French trading and colonization Company of One Hundred Associates to capitalize on the North American fur trade and to expand French colonies centered on the Saint Lawrence River valley.

Holy Saturday Easter Special

Sat, 04 Apr 2026 16:00:00 +0000

Jesus was crucified and buried in Jerusalem. Christianity has a close bond with the city of Jerusalem, the Historical Jesus walked its streets and entered its building. It was in this holy city that at eight days of age, he was dedicated in the Great Temple according to Jewish custom. As a man from Nazareth, he preached at the Temple and eventually was arrested, detained, tried, crucified and buried in the city. After his death, his followers believed he rose from the dead, and the community they formed eventually became the early Christian Church, with its headquarters in Jerusalem. The ancient city has been ruled by many different empires over the past 3000 years, and has profound connections with the three great Abrahamic religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Ee101.

Celebrated annually on March 25th (nine months before Christmas) by Catholics and certain Protestant denominations such as Anglicans and Lutherans, this major Church Solemnity highlights the Incarnation, Mary’s "yes," or fiat (Latin for "let it be done") to God’s plan, and the start of human salvation. The festival commemorates the announcement (Luke 1:26–38) made by the archangel Gabriel to Mary that she would conceive and bear a son through a virgin birth and become the mother of Jesus Christ, the Messiah and Son of God, marking the Incarnation.

283. Dispensationalism

Thu, 12 Mar 2026 04:00:00 +0000

A theological system that interprets the Bible by dividing history into distinct periods called "dispensations," each characterized by a unique way God interacts with humanity. Dispensationalism emphasizes a literal interpretation of scripture, particularly Old Testament prophecies about Israel, and distinguishes between God's plan for Israel and his plan for the Church. It also typically includes a premillennial eschatology, meaning a belief in a literal thousand-year reign of Christ on Earth following his second coming, and a Great Tribulation and Rapture of Christians before the expected Second Coming of their Messiah, Jesus.

282. Parable of the Lost Son

Tue, 10 Mar 2026 04:00:00 +0000

The Prodigal Son refers to the story in the Gospel of Luke (15:11-32) about a son who squanders his inheritance and later returns to his father, who welcomes him back with a celebration, despite the anger and jealousy of his brother. Christians believe the parable illustrates God's unconditional love and forgiveness for sinners who repent. The secular term "prodigal son" has also come to mean a son or daughter who leaves home, acts irresponsibly, but then feels remorse and returns.

280. Parable of the Light

Tue, 03 Mar 2026 05:00:00 +0000

The Gospel of Mark (Chapter 4) explores the teachings of Jesus through the lens of parables, using the analogy of a lit lamp not being hidden but placed on a stand to give light to all so that his followers' spiritual "light"—their good deeds and faith—should not be concealed but shine forth for others to see and glorify God.

Mon, 23 Feb 2026 05:00:00 +0000

An early influential Christian of the late First century and early Second century, Saint Polycarp (69-155) is regarded as a saint and Church Father in the Eastern Orthodox Church, the Catholic Church, Oriental Orthodox Churches, Lutheranism, and Protestant Anglicanism. He lived in an age after the deaths of the apostles, when a variety of interpretations of the sayings of Jesus were being preached. His role was to authenticate orthodox teachings through his connection with the beloved apostle John, one of the four gospel writers, and according to tradition the last of Jesus’ disciples to die and the only one of the original twelve who did not die a martyr.

Immaculate Conception (Feast of Lourdes)

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 05:00:00 +0000

Celebrated annually on December 8th as a solemn feast day, the Immaculate Conception’s observance began with a Papal encyclical by Pope Pius IX, when he formally defined the dogma of the Immaculate Conception in 1854. The Immaculate Conception is the dogma that the Virgin Mary was conceived without original sin. This doctrine states that Mary was preserved from the "stain of sin" from the first moment of her conception through a unique grace from God, granted in anticipation of her role as the mother of Jesus. The annual Feast Day of Our Lady of Lourdes was established in 1890 for February 11 by Pope Leo XIII. E263.

Conception of Mary (Feast of Lourdes)

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 05:00:00 +0000

The doctrine of the Immaculate Conception states that the Virgin Mary was conceived without original sin. The Catholic Church, particularly the Latin Rite, follows the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception, which states that Mary was conceived without original sin. Other denominations that follow it include some Anglicans and Eastern Orthodox Churches, though the understanding and formulation differ, and many other Protestant denominations do not accept the doctrine. The Immaculate Conception is celebrated annually on December 8th as a solemn feast day, whose observance began with a Papal encyclical by Pope Pius IX, when he formally defined the dogma of the Immaculate Conception in 1854. The annual Feast Day of Our Lady of Lourdes was established in 1890 for February 11 by Pope Leo XIII. E262.

Was Mary Immaculate? (Feast of Lourdes)

Wed, 11 Feb 2026 17:00:00 +0000

The Immaculate Conception is the dogma that the Virgin Mary was conceived without original sin. This doctrine states that Mary was preserved from the "stain of sin" from the first moment of her conception through a unique grace from God, granted in anticipation of her role as the mother of Jesus. The Immaculate Conception is celebrated annually on December 8th as a solemn feast day, whose observance began with a Papal encyclical by Pope Pius IX, when he formally defined the dogma of the Immaculate Conception in 1854. Several years later, in 1858, the Blessed Mother gave her name to St. Bernadette at Lourdes stating, "I am the Immaculate Conception." A Protestant theologian and pastor offers an interesting appraisal of the Roman Catholic dogma of the Immaculate Conception. The annual Feast Day of Our Lady of Lourdes was established in 1890 for February 11 by Pope Leo XIII. E261.

276. Our Lady of Lourdes

Wed, 11 Feb 2026 05:00:00 +0000

The Virgin Mary gave her name to a 14-year old girl near Lourdes, stating: "I am the Immaculate Conception." Lourdes is a town in southwestern France, in the foothills of the Pyrenees Mountains. It’s known for the Sanctuary of Notre-Dame de Lourdes, a major Catholic pilgrimage site. Each year, millions visit the Grotto of Massabielle (Grotto of the Apparitions) where, the Virgin Mary is said to have appeared 18 times (between 11 February and 16 July in 1858) to Saint Bernadette Soubirous. In the grotto or cave, pilgrims can drink or bathe in water flowing from a believed to be, miraculous spring. The annual Feast Day of Our Lady of Lourdes was established in 1890 for February 11 by Pope Leo XIII.

E170. A Prophet without Honor

Fri, 06 Feb 2026 05:00:00 +0000

In the Gospel of Mark (6:4), Jesus says, "A prophet is not without honor, except in his hometown and among his relatives and in his own household". Jesus said this in Nazareth, where he was rejected by his family and neighbors. The people of his home town knew Jesus well, but they didn't believe who he was. They called him "the son of Mary" to reject his virgin birth and Messianic claims. Jesus was unable to perform miracles in Nazareth because of their lack of faith. Enjoy this ENCORE Presentation!

274. Parable of the Measure

Thu, 05 Feb 2026 05:00:00 +0000

The Gospel of Mark (Chapter 4) is a teaching by Jesus about the importance of "paying attention to what you hear" and that "with the measure you use, it will be measured to you—and even more". This means that the quality and attention you give to understanding spiritual things will determine how much more is revealed to you, and conversely, a lack of attention will result in receiving less. The principle is that what one brings to the spiritual life determines what one receives in return.

Was Jesus a Buddhist?

Wed, 04 Feb 2026 05:00:00 +0000

What was the influence of Buddhism on the preacher from Galilee? The lost years refers to the time in Jesus's life between his childhood and the beginning of his ministry, a period not described in the Gospels. Following the New Testament accounts of Jesus' young life, there is a gap of about 18 years in his story. The best known and most popular explanation for the Nazarene's hidden years, is by far, his supposed travels to India, Tibet and surrounding areas where he encountered Hinduism and the teachings of the Buddha. But is this story true? Ee110.

Let’s take a detailed look at the possible fates of Henry Hudson.

e105. Discovering the Secrets of Christ’s Childhood Years

Thu, 29 Jan 2026 05:00:00 +0000

Infancy gospels or protoevangelions are a genre of religious texts that arose in the 2nd century. They are part of New Testament apocrypha, and provide accounts of the birth and early life of Jesus. The texts are of various and uncertain origin, and are generally non-canonical in major modern branches of Christianity. They include the Gospel of James, which introduces the concept of the Perpetual Virginity of Mary, and the Infancy Gospel of Thomas (not to be confused with the unrelated Gospel of Thomas), both of which cover many miraculous incidents from the life of Mary and the childhood of Jesus that are not included in the canonical gospels.

MLK was a Baptist minister, deeply rooted in the African-American Christian tradition, who became a pivotal leader in the Civil Rights Movement, drawing his powerful oratory and philosophy of nonviolent resistance from his faith and biblical teachings.

STORY OF AMERICA reminder

Tue, 13 Jan 2026 16:00:00 +0000

This is a reminder that every episode of the Historical Jesus podcast designated with the word EXTRA is fully dedicated to the enthralling epic STORY OF AMERICA. One cannot underestimate the importance Christianity and its powerful message greatly shaped the colonization of the United States of America. The Bible is the most significant book in the Western canon. It’s also the book upon which the post antiquity Western civilization was built upon, including the exploring and settlement of America by European nations. Although modern America is now populated by adherents to all of the world’s religions, as well as secular atheists and agnostics, one should never undervalue the key role played by Christianity in the early Judeo-Christian foundation and later development of the USA. Those of you who choose NOT to come along for the ride, can simply skip these EXTRA episodes and continue enjoying my regular Historical Jesus shows. I do, however, hope you will join me on this exciting historical chronicle and adventure.

e83. Herod the Great

Tue, 13 Jan 2026 05:00:00 +0000

The story of Jesus starts under a monarch named Herod. He was called ‘King of the Jews,’ and ruled Judea from 40 to the year 4 BC. His reputation for paranoia and ruthlessness was well deserved, having executed three of his own sons, and slaughtered all the baby boys in Bethlehem following the birth of Jesus, according to the Gospel of Matthew.

Feast of the Baptism of the Lord

Sun, 11 Jan 2026 14:00:00 +0000

Celebrated by many Western Christian denominations, including Catholics, Anglicans, Lutherans, and other Protestant Churches such as Methodists and Moravians, The Feast of the Baptism of the Lord commemorates Jesus' baptism by John the Baptist in the Jordan River, marking the start of His public ministry and the first manifestation of the Holy Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). It's a liturgical feast that concludes the Christmas season, typically observed on the first Sunday after Epiphany (January 6th) in Western Christianity, bridging to Ordinary Time, and it signifies the beginning of Christian life through baptism, uniting believers with Christ.

EXTRA 103. Colony of Maine

Sat, 10 Jan 2026 05:00:00 +0000

The Popham Colony Site is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The exact site of the Popham Colony was lost until 1888 when a plan for the site was found in the General Archives in Spain. This plan exactly matches the location at Sabino Head near Maine's Popham Beach State Park. Later archaeology in 1994 confirmed the location and the accuracy of the plan.

Memorial of the Most Holy Name of Jesus

Tue, 06 Jan 2026 16:00:00 +0000

Annual feast honors the power and significance of the name "Jesus," which means "God saves" or "Savior" in Hebrew/Aramaic. Observed during first week of January using varying dates & names by Catholics and some Protestant denominations (Anglican, Episcopal, and Lutheran), the invocation is rooted in the biblical account where the angel Gabriel instructs both Mary and Joseph to name the child Jesus. While the feast focuses on the primary name "Jesus," the Bible uses many other venerated names and titles to describe Christ's nature and mission. Devotion to the Holy Name was popularized in the 15th century by the Franciscan friar Saint Bernardine of Siena, who encouraged people to place the Greek monogram of Jesus' name, IHS (from the first three letters of the Greek word for Jesus), on their doors. The feast was extended to the entire Church in 1721 by Pope Innocent XIII. Ee150.

EXTRA 102. Sagadahoc colonists

Sat, 03 Jan 2026 05:00:00 +0000

The Sagadahoc Settlement—also known as the Popham Colony—was established in 1607 and was located in the present-day town of Phippsburg, Maine, near the mouth of the Kennebec River. It was founded a few months after its rival, the colony at Jamestown. The Popham Colony was the second settlement in the region that would eventually become known as New England. The first colony was St. Croix Island, near what is now the town of Calais. St. Croix Island was settled initially in June 1604, then moved in 1605 by Samuel de Champlain to the Bay of Fundy. The Popham Colony was the vanguard of a new colonization model for the English, the result of rights stripped from nobleman and redistributed to new corporate entities. After years of sailors kidnapping natives off the coast of modern day Maine to train as interpreters, Sir Ferdinando Gorges and Sir John Popham returned them hoping the fair treatment given to their captives, will foster good will with their native communities.

270. Solemnity of Mary

Thu, 01 Jan 2026 15:00:00 +0000

January First is the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God, a Holy Day of Obligation for Catholics (meaning that Mass attendance is required), also observed by some Protestants (Anglicans & Lutherans) as a related feast. On this day, the Church proclaims Mary as Theotokos (God-bearer), affirming that the Son she conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit is truly God and truly man. The Solemnity of the Blessed Virgin Mary is thus a liturgical celebration observed on January 1st and marks the octave of Christmas, celebrating her divine motherhood.

e5. New Testament

Wed, 31 Dec 2025 05:00:00 +0000

The word testament in the expression "New Testament" refers to a new covenant that Christians believe completes or fulfils the Mosaic covenant or the old covenant that the national god of Israel made with the people of Israel on Mount Sinai through Moses, described in the books of the Old Testament. Christians traditionally view this new covenant as being prophesied in the Hebrew Bible's Book of Jeremiah.

E171. Gospel of Luke

Tue, 30 Dec 2025 05:00:00 +0000

The third of the New Testament's four canonical Gospels is Luke. It tells of the origins, birth, ministry, death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus. The author is anonymous but the traditional view that Luke the Evangelist was the companion of Paul is still put forward. The most probable date for its composition is around AD 80–110, and there is evidence that it was still being revised well into the 2nd century. Enjoy this ENCORE Presentation!

E169. Gospel of Matthew

Mon, 29 Dec 2025 16:00:00 +0000

The first book of the New Testament of the Bible and one of the three synoptic Gospels. Matthew tells how Israel's messiah (Christ), Jesus, comes to his people (the Jews) but is rejected by them and how, after his resurrection, he sends the disciples to the gentiles instead. Matthew wishes to emphasize that the Jewish tradition should not be lost in a church that was increasingly becoming gentile. The gospel reflects the struggles and conflicts between the evangelist's community and the other Jews, particularly with its sharp criticism of the scribes and Pharisees with the position that through their rejection of Christ, the Kingdom of Heaven has been taken away from them and given instead to the church. The gospel is anonymous. Traditionally attributed to the Apostle Matthew, the predominant scholarly view is that it was written in the last quarter of the first century by an anonymous Jew familiar with technical legal aspects of scripture. Most scholars think Matthew used the Gospel of Mark and the hypothetical sayings Gospel Q (which consists of the material Matthew shares in common with Luke) and is the product of the second generation of the Christian movement, though it draws on the memory of the first generation of the disciples of Jesus.

Handel’s Christmas Messiah Oratorio (part 2 of 2)

Wed, 24 Dec 2025 16:00:00 +0000

George Frideric Handel (1685-1759) was a German-British Baroque composer. His most famous work, the 1742 oratorio Messiah with its "Hallelujah" chorus, is among the most popular works in choral music. The text from Messiah was compiled from the King James Bible and the Book of Common Prayer. Handel was born, raised, and trained in German Prussia but settled in England where he spent the bulk of his career and was buried in London’s Westminster Abbey. ACAPELLA 5.

Tales of St. Nick (Christmas Week)

Tue, 23 Dec 2025 15:25:00 +0000

Saint Nicholas was an early Christian bishop of Greek descent from the maritime city of Myra in modern-day Turkey during the time of the Roman Empire. His legendary habit of secret gift-giving gave rise to the traditional model of Saint Nick, better known as Santa Claus. Little is known about the historical Saint Nicholas. The earliest accounts of his life were written centuries after his death and probably contain legendary elaborations. Ee60.

265. Was a Comet the Star of Bethlehem?

Tue, 23 Dec 2025 05:00:00 +0000

A bright, icy, small Solar System body passes by Earth and is observed around the world every 76 years. Its tail is over 96 million miles long of dust and gas blown out from the coma surrounding its nucleus. British scientist Edmund Halley's calculations predicted the comet would return, and it did. Halley used Isaac Newton's law of gravity to calculate the orbits of the comets. He concluded that these comets were actually the same comet returning on a long elliptical orbit around the sun. The Comet has been observed throughout history, including near the time of the birth of Jesus of Nazareth.

Genealogy of Jesus (Christmas Week)

Mon, 22 Dec 2025 16:00:00 +0000

The Gospel of Matthew's genealogy is a treasure trove of symbolism, revealing essential truths about Jesus' heritage and mission. In a culture where lineage was synonymous with identity, let’s learn along with the Hearing Jesus podcast, how Matthew strategically crafts his genealogy as a bridge connecting the messianic promises to their fulfillment in Jesus. This was pivotal for the Jewish audience, signifying Jesus as the awaited Messiah who would restore Israel. Ee61.

Keeping watch over their Flock (Prelude to Christmas)

Thu, 18 Dec 2025 05:00:00 +0000

What was it like to be a shepherd over 2000 years ago? Tending flocks, with agriculture, formed the basis of the Holy Land’s economy, and sheep raised on the hillsides around Bethlehem may well have been destined for temple sacrifices in Jerusalem, only six miles to the north. Let’s continue describing a shepherd's life. Ee48.

Shepherds (Prelude to Christmas)

Wed, 17 Dec 2025 16:00:00 +0000

Some of Israel's great heroes were shepherds: Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and David. Both Psalm 23 and Jesus compare God's care to that of a Good Shepherd. But in the first century, it seems, shepherds, specifically, hireling shepherds, had a rather unsavory reputation. But what about the New Testament shepherds of Luke’s Christmas infancy narrative? Ee47.

Birth of Jesus in Bethlehem (Prelude to Christmas)

Tue, 16 Dec 2025 05:00:00 +0000

Christians believe Jesus has an historical context; he was born in history; he is neither a myth nor a legend. Jesus is both historical and verifiable according to Christians and most historians. They point out that he is mentioned not only in the New Testament, but by contemporaries and early documents. Christian scripture persistently places him within history as a man who walked the earth in real time, a man who permanently altered the history into which he was born. Ee43.

EXTRA 99. Colonial Maine

Sat, 13 Dec 2025 05:00:00 +0000

A key figure and major promoter of the English colonization of New England was Pioneering colonist Ferdinando Gorges (1565-1647), a British naval, military commander, and investor in the Popham Colony. His early involvement in English trade with and settlement of America as well as his efforts in founding the Province of Maine earned him the title of the "Father of English Colonization in America," even though he never set foot in the New World. The Plymouth Company was chartered by King James in 1606 with responsibility for colonizing the northern east coast of America. The merchants agreed to finance the settlers’ trip in return for repayment of their expenses plus interest out of the profits made. The Plymouth Company established the Popham Colony, in present-day Maine, the northern answer to the previously discussed Jamestown Colony, founded by the Virginia Company of London. The Popham Colony was named for its chief investor and Lord Chief Justice of England Sir John Popham who presided over the trials of Sir Walter Raleigh and the conspirators of the Gunpowder Plot, including Guy Fawkes.

December 12th celebrates the annual Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, commemorating the Virgin Mary's apparitions to Saint Juan Diego in Mexico in 1531, where she requested a shrine be built on Tepeyac Hill, leaving her image miraculously imprinted on his cloak (tilma) as proof, making her Mexico's patron saint and a profound religious icon. Millions of pilgrims visit the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City annually, often crawling on their knees in devotion, marking a major religious and cultural event that starts the holiday season.

264. Is Purgatory Biblical?

Wed, 10 Dec 2025 05:00:00 +0000

The concept of Purgatory is not adhered to by all Christians but is nevertheless a fascinating topic well worth investigating. Protestants do not believe in purgatory. They typically reject the doctrine because they argue it lacks biblical support and is inconsistent with the Protestant belief in salvation by faith alone, which holds that Jesus's sacrifice is sufficient for all sin.

E166. Leprosy

Fri, 05 Dec 2025 05:00:00 +0000

In biblical times, leprosy was often viewed as a divine punishment, a mark of sin or impurity. Such beliefs fostered fear, ostracism, and discrimination. The biblical portrayals of leprosy reinforced a narrative that associated it with moral wrongdoing, leading to social exclusion and isolation. But what is Leprosy, also known as Hansen’s Disease? And how exactly does scripture employ this terrible affliction in its teachings? Enjoy this ENCORE Presentation!

ACAPELLA 11. Agnus Dei (Lamb of God)

Wed, 03 Dec 2025 05:00:00 +0000

The hymnal prayer "Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world, have mercy on us" originates from the Book of John and the Book of Revelation in the Bible, and has been incorporated into Christian liturgy by its Latin name, Agnus Dei (meaning Lamb of God) since at least the 7th century. The phrase originates with John the Baptist's declaration, who, upon seeing Jesus, proclaimed, "Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!" (John 1:29). This was a symbolic reference to the Passover lamb, an unblemished animal sacrificed to deliver the Israelites from slavery. that Jesus is the "Lamb of God". The prayer was officially added to the Roman Rite around the late 7th century and is now a standard part of the Catholic and many other Christian masses, typically occurring during the breaking of the consecrated bread before communion. The worship of the "slain, yet triumphant" Lamb in the New testament Book of Revelation is a vision of the risen Christ, which reinforces the "Lamb of God" imagery in the heavenly liturgy. The prayer acknowledges Christ as the ultimate sacrifice, whose death provides a way for believers to be freed from the bondage of sin. It calls for mercy upon the worshipers and, in its third invocation, asks for peace.

Wed, 26 Nov 2025 05:00:00 +0000

The most famous "pilgrim" hymn is generally considered as "To Be a Pilgrim" (also known as "He Who Would Valiant Be" or "He Who Would True Valour See").

258. Is Purgatory Real?

Thu, 20 Nov 2025 05:00:00 +0000

Protestants do not believe in purgatory. They typically reject the doctrine because they argue it lacks biblical support and is inconsistent with the Protestant belief in salvation by faith alone, which holds that Jesus's sacrifice is sufficient for all sin. The concept of Purgatory is thus not adhered to by all Christians but is nevertheless a fascinating topic well worth investigating.

257. What is Purgatory?

Tue, 18 Nov 2025 05:00:00 +0000

The concept of Purgatory is not adhered to by all Christians but is nevertheless a fascinating topic well worth investigating. The word "purgatory" is rooted in Latin, meaning to purify, purge, or cleanse; a place or condition of temporal punishment for spiritual cleansing after death of souls dying penitent and destined ultimately for Heaven. It is NOT considered as a place of probation, for, the ultimate salvation of those in purgatory is assured, and the impenitent are NOT received into purgatory. The souls in purgatory are supposed, however, to receive relief through the prayers of the faithful and according to the traditional Catholic understanding, through the sacrifice of the mass. Protestants do not believe in purgatory. They typically reject the doctrine because they argue it lacks biblical support and is inconsistent with the Protestant belief in salvation by faith alone, which holds that Jesus's sacrifice is sufficient for all sin.

256. Parable of the Wheat and Weeds

Thu, 13 Nov 2025 05:00:00 +0000

Jesus told a story about a farmer who sowed good seed, but an enemy later sowed weeds among the wheat while people slept. Fearing they would uproot the wheat, the farmer instructed his servants to let both grow until the harvest. At the harvest, the weeds would be gathered and burned, and the wheat would be stored in the barn. Jesus later explained the parable's meaning (Matthew 13:24-30;36-43): the farmer is the Son of Man, the field is the world, the good seed are the children of the kingdom, and the weeds are the children of the evil one. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels who will separate the righteous from the wicked.

255. “Between the Crosses, Row on Row”

Tue, 11 Nov 2025 05:00:00 +0000

WWI (1914-18) was a global conflict whose horrendous battlefields consumed a generation of young Christian men on Europe’s Western Front. Canadian soldier John McCrae (a Presbyterian; 1872-1918) and American humanitarian Moina Michael (a Methodist; 1869-1944) sparked a remembrance movement in honor of the war dead and veterans, forever inspired by the phrase “Between the crosses, row on row.”

254. Remembrance Day

Mon, 10 Nov 2025 05:00:00 +0000

In 1918, on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, the fighting on the Western Front ceased, marking Armistice Day and the end of the Great War, World War one. The First World War officially came to an end on November 11th, 1918, when all troops kept a minute of silence, described by many soldiers who were on battlefields during that moment, as a religious experience when the Almighty spoke clearly to mankind—the sudden silence being the Voice of God.

251. November 2nd is All Souls' Day

Sun, 02 Nov 2025 04:00:00 +0000

November Second is a Christian feast day of prayer and remembrance for the deceased, known as All Souls Day, observed by the Roman Catholic Church, some Anglican and Lutheran denominations, and various Eastern Orthodox and Eastern Catholic churches. Christians honor the departed through prayer, Mass, and acts of charity, with many traditions involving visiting cemeteries to decorate graves. The observance grew out of earlier Christian traditions of praying for the dead. The practice has roots in the belief that the living can assist those who have died through prayer, love, and sacrifice. It’s the last day of Allhallowtide, a Christian season which lasts three days that also includes All Hallows' Eve (also known as the secular Halloween on October 31st) which initiates Allhallowtide, and concludes November second with All Souls' Day.

246. What are Witches?

Tue, 28 Oct 2025 04:00:00 +0000

The connection between Christianity and witches is primarily one of conflict, as mainstream Christian theology considers witchcraft an abomination based on biblical prohibitions against sorcery and divination. However, the relationship is also complex, with some individuals identifying as "Christian witches" who believe witchcraft and Christian faith can be compatible, while others see witchcraft as a practice separate from religion. Historically, there are instances of both persecution and folk magic that incorporated Christian elements.

EXTRA 93. Lake Champlain Battle

Sat, 25 Oct 2025 04:00:00 +0000

The Father of New France, Samuel de Champlain, was a larger than life visionary adventurer who made a New World in Canada against extreme odds and challenges, but little is known of this secretive, mysterious, enigmatic Frenchman. During the summer of 1609, Champlain attempted to form better relations and alliances with the local First Nations tribes including Wendat-Hurons, Algonquins, and Montagnais who lived in the area of the St. Lawrence River. These tribes sought Champlain's help in their war against the Haudenosaunee, also known as the Iroquois Confederacy, League or Five Nations. The founder of New France set off with his men to explore the Rivière des Iroquois—now known as the Richelieu River—and became the first known European to lay eyes on and map one of the continent’s majestic bodies of water, named Lake Champlain in his honor.

Sat, 18 Oct 2025 04:06:42 +0000

Key Battles of American History presents the unsettled state of Europe between 1918 and 1930 and the gradual fracturing of the uneasy peace that it enjoyed. The roots of the Second World War in Europe lie within the First World War. The 1919 Treaty of Versailles formally ended the war between Germany and the western Allies, but the geopolitical situation it created was far from stable. Ten years later, the Great Depression made things even worse.

Wed, 15 Oct 2025 04:00:00 +0000

Latin for "weeping” or “tearful", the Lacrimosa is part of the Catholic Requiem Mass. Many great composers have set the text as a discrete movement of the Requiem, including the prolific and influential composer of the Classical period, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-91). Born in Salzburg, Austria, Mozart composed his Requiem in 1791, during the last year of his short life.

Mexico cultivates mostly shade-grown Arabica coffee which grows particularly well in the southern coastal regions—conditions that, in Mexico's relatively cooler climate, are favorable for higher-quality coffees.

EXTRA 87. Servitude and Anglo-Powhatan Wars

Sat, 13 Sep 2025 04:00:00 +0000

Indentures are agreements between two parties about long-term work. The length of servitude might be a specified number of years or until the servant reached a certain age. Some people indentured themselves in order to gain passage to America or to escape debt and poverty. Discovery that Virginia was the perfect environment to cultivate tobacco led to Jamestown's success… and to a great deal of conflict between the English and the natives. Relations between the local natives and colonists became increasingly uncomfortable as more white settlers arrived in Virginia. The natives moved farther inland to distance themselves from the English, but more Europeans kept arriving. Both sides were guilty of straining the relationship. The English stole corn and other food supplies and the natives ambushed the English for their tools and weapons. Finally, the conflict erupted in the winter of 1610.

Divisions did not appear in the original texts of Judaeo-Christian bibles. The long quest for ways to point more precisely to biblical content that led to a book-chapter-verse system began in the middle ages and eventually evolved, through trial and error, into the system or method we use today.

EXTRA 86. Virginia Tobacco and Famine

Sat, 06 Sep 2025 04:00:00 +0000

STORY OF AMERICA — English investors who funded the establishment of the Virginia colony may have been concerned with the glory of England and the spreading of the Anglican religion to the natives, but above all, they demanded that the new enterprise turn a profit. Tobacco eventually proved to be the economic base for Virginia for the next two centuries. The original Jamestown colonists had never intended to grow all of their own food. Their plans depended upon trade with the local natives to supply them with food between the arrivals of periodic supply ships from England. Lack of access to fresh water and a severe drought crippled the limited agricultural production of the Virginia colonists. Combined with the lack of trade with the Native Americans and the failure of supply ships, the colony found itself with far too little food for the upcoming winter.

ACAPELLA 7. Zadok the Priest

Wed, 03 Sep 2025 04:00:00 +0000

George Frideric Handel (1685-1759) was a German-British Baroque composer. His most famous work, the 1742 oratorio Messiah with its "Hallelujah" chorus, is among the most popular works in choral music. The text from Messiah was compiled from the King James Bible and the Book of Common Prayer. Zadok the Priest is a British anthem that was composed by Handel for the coronation of George II in 1727. The text to Zadok the Priest is derived from the biblical account of the anointing of Solomon in 1 Kings 1:32-45.

EXTRA 85. Jamestown Tidewater Settlement

Sat, 30 Aug 2025 04:00:00 +0000

STORY OF AMERICA — In 1607, after many years of unsuccessful American settlements, the English founded the colony of Jamestown in Virginia. Eastern Virginia is called ‘Tidewater’ because the rivers moved to the rhythm of the ocean before they finally merge with Chesapeake Bay. The area between the James and York rivers is known simply as "the peninsula," and it is here that our story unfolds. The entire peninsula is rich in history. The mouth of the James River aligns directly with the entrance to Chesapeake Bay from the Atlantic Ocean. As Virginia's longest river, the James enabled the early settlers to explore far inland in search of the fable passage to the wealth of China. Exploration lead to settlement, and so the lands along the James River were the first to be colonized.

EXTRA 84. Captain Bartholomew Gosnold (1571-1607)

Sat, 23 Aug 2025 04:00:00 +0000

STORY OF AMERICA — Having obtained backing to establish an English colony on the North American Atlantic coastline, Bartholomew Gosnold set sail in a small bark named the Concord in 1602, with thirty-two on board towards Martha's Vineyard and Provincetown. Gosnold (born in Grundisburgh, Suffolk, England) pioneered a direct sailing route due west from the Azores to the New World in what later became New England. He and his crew explored the coastline with the intention of establishing a colony and small fishing outpost in the southern part of Massachusetts on Cuttyhunk Island. Let’s enjoy first-hand accounts of their adventures.

E132. Deism and Rationalism

Fri, 22 Aug 2025 04:00:00 +0000

Deism is a form of theism in which God created the universe and established rationally comprehensible moral and natural laws but no longer intervenes in human affairs. Deism is a natural religion where belief in God is based on application of reason and evidence observed in the designs and laws found in nature. Deists present deist apologetics that demonstrate the existence of God based on evidence and reason, absent divine revelation. Rationalism is a belief or theory that opinions and actions should be based on reason and knowledge rather than on religious belief or emotional response. In Philosophy it's the theory that reason rather than experience is the foundation of certainty in knowledge. In Theology it's the practice of treating reason as the ultimate authority in religion.

EXTRA 83. Exploring New England

Sat, 16 Aug 2025 04:00:00 +0000

STORY OF AMERICA — Present-day New England is a region comprising six states in the Northeastern United States: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont. English plans to colonize this part of America began to take concrete form at the turn of the 17th century. The first expedition to set out from England was led by Bartholomew Gosnold (1571-1607), an English sea captain who led the first recorded European expedition to Cape Cod, Provincetown, Cuttyhunk Island, and Martha's Vineyard.

EXTRA 82. Founding of Quebec in 1608

Sat, 09 Aug 2025 04:00:00 +0000

STORY OF AMERICA — Samuel Champlain took some colonists up the great River St. Lawrence to establish a new settlement and fur trading post. He founded France's first permanent Canadian colony, which he named Quebec—an indigenous word meaning: where the river narrows. This strategic location was at the foot of a great rocky cape on the north shore, which formed a natural fortress barring the way upstream to the interior. The early years of the Quebec colony were hard, and the population grew slowly. Samuel Champlain administered its affairs and took personal charge of an organized exploration of the unknown interior.

EXTRA 81. Acadia and East Coast USA

Sat, 02 Aug 2025 04:02:42 +0000

STORY OF AMERICA — French King Henri IV granted a fur monopoly to a noble who led a colonizing expedition to an island located near the mouth of the St. Croix River in 1604, which in time was to mark the international boundary between the Canadian province of New Brunswick and the American state of Maine. In the spring of 1605, France’s St. Croix settlement was moved to a new site across the Bay of Fundy, on the shore of the Annapolis Basin, an inlet in western Nova Scotia. Here at Port Royal, France's most successful colony to date was established. The general area came to be known as Acadia. Among the lieutenants on this undertaking was a geographer named Samuel de Champlain, who promptly carried out a major exploration of the northeastern coastline of what is now the United States.

STORY OF AMERICA — Was Champlain’s father King Henri IV? To understand Samuel de Champlain, we must grasp the character of the French King he served so faithfully. Champlain’s powerful friendship and special relationship with his monarch King Henri IV is in part well-documented but also shrouded in mystery. Henri’s many favors to Champlain and his family were acts of extraordinary largesse. What was the origin of this special relationship between a great king, a family of humble origins, and a youth of modest rank? Let’s investigate.

EXTRA 79. Colonial Soldier, Navigator, Geographer

Sat, 19 Jul 2025 04:00:00 +0000

STORY OF AMERICA — At the beginning of the 1600s, the initial phase of European exploration of the North American continent slowly began to move towards colonization. This early, fledgling Colonial Movement was in need of strong, talented, and determined leaders. Throughout his life, Samuel de Champlain was a loyal Catholic soldier. As a young man, he learned to fight with the firearms of his time, acquiring this practical knowledge when serving with the army during the later stages of France's religious wars involving the Holy Catholic League in Brittany from 1594 to 98. During this time he attained the rank of Captain. His soldiering skills, along with his talents as a Navigator and Geographer, would later serve him well during his many adventures in the New World.

EXTRA 78. Champlain Overseas

Sat, 12 Jul 2025 04:00:00 +0000

STORY OF AMERICA - Experienced seaman Samuel Champlain joined the crew aboard the ‘Saint-Julien’ on his first Trans-Atlantic crossing, while in his early thirties. This journey lasted two years and gave Champlain the opportunity to learn about Spanish holdings from the Caribbean to Mexico City. Along the way, he took detailed notes, wrote an illustrated report on what he learned on this trip, and gave this secret account—entitled ‘Narrative of a Voyage to the West Indies and Mexico 1599 to 1601’—to his King, Henry the fourth, who rewarded Champlain with an annual pension. In 1603, King Henry IV wanted the French to begin settling in the New World in hopes that wealth could be brought back to France. So he sent an expedition to locate a place on the American continent to establish a colony and fur trade settlement. Although he held no official title at the time, Samuel de Champlain would be among the men who would take part in this great venture.

EXTRA 76. Sable Island Tragedy

Sat, 28 Jun 2025 04:15:49 +0000

STORY OF AMERICA - An isolated small Atlantic sandbar situated southeast of Halifax, Nova Scotia is notable for its role in the early history of America when France initiated the first attempts to settle on Sable Island. The Viceroy of New France, Marquis de La Roche, sent soldiers and settlers (mainly criminals) to the Island to establish a fishery and fur trading post. When the convicts mutinied, they were left on the tree-less and stone-less Sable Island. Most of the settlers died, but a few managed to survive in mud dwellings for 5 years before being returned to France. Poorly planned, the settlement failed and was abandoned in 1603. Host Mark Vinet's special guest Eric Yanis of The Other States of America podcast tells this intriguing story.

EXTRA 72. Roman Gaul

Sat, 31 May 2025 04:00:00 +0000

STORY OF AMERICA - To properly understand the exploration and colonization of North America, one should have some understanding of Roman history. The Conquest of Gaul by Julius Caesar (100-44 BC) during the mid-first century BC brought Roman occupation and influence to a land later to become France, one of North America’s major European founding nations. North American institutions, architecture, infrastructure, city planning, art, history, culture, manners, customs, traditions, political organizations, laws and language, owe a great deal to the Roman Empire. Join me on this fun precursor to the French exploration and colonization of North America.

Fri, 23 May 2025 04:00:00 +0000

Jesus, at the age of twelve, accompanies Mary and Joseph, and a large group of their relatives and friends to Jerusalem on pilgrimage for Passover. On the day of their return, Jesus lingered, staying in the Temple, but his parents thought that he was among their group when he was not. Mary and Joseph headed back home and after a day of travel realised Jesus was missing, so they returned to Jerusalem, finding the boy three days later. He was found in the Temple in discussion with the elders, listening to them and asking them questions. Enjoy this ENCORE Presentation!

Sat, 10 May 2025 04:00:00 +0000

Prior to exploring Early Colonial Mexico, let’s re-visit one of the most glorious Mesoamerican societies—the Aztec Empire in the context of presentism. The meaning of presentism is an attitude toward the past dominated by present-day attitudes and experiences. Some define it as the historical sin of applying present-day virtues upon the past.

A4. Sistine Chapel

Thu, 08 May 2025 04:00:00 +0000

Located in the Apostolic Palace, the pope's official residence in Vatican City, The Sistine Chapel takes its name from Pope Sixtus, who had it built during the 1470s. Since that time, it has served as a place of both religious and functionary papal activity. Today, it is the site of the papal conclave, the process by which a new pope is selected. The chapel's fame lies mainly in the frescoes that decorate its interior by a team of Renaissance painters including Sandro Botticelli, Pietro Perugino, Pinturicchio, Domenico Ghirlandaio, Cosimo Rosselli, and most particularly the Sistine Chapel ceiling and The Last Judgment covering the whole altar wall, both by Michelangelo.

LITERATURE 1.0 Quest of the Historical Jesus

Wed, 16 Apr 2025 04:00:00 +0000

Albert Schweitzer (1875-1965) gives us one of the first historical treatments of the life of Jesus in his pioneering book (1906) that reviews all prior work on the question of the "historical Jesus" and points out how Jesus of Nazareth's image has changed with the times. The author concludes this seminal work of biblical criticism with his own synopsis and interpretation.

EXTRA 67. Shakespeare in America

Sat, 12 Apr 2025 04:00:00 +0000

We continue our Deep Dive into England’s Tudor period and its influence on America by examining the immeasurable contribution made by an Englishman on one of the continent’s main languages and culture. Although this gentleman never visited the continent per se, his words flowed across the ocean onto the immense territory to greatly impact its means of communication. Let’s explore the life, deeds and works of this Tudor era Titan of History… William Shakespeare (1564-1616). Let’s appreciate the immeasurable contribution made by an Englishman on one of North America’s main languages and culture. English actor, playwright, poet, and London theatre owner from the early 1590s to 1613, William Shakespeare (1564-1616), known as "the Bard of Avon", authored at least 37 plays and collaborated on several more. He also wrote 154 sonnets, two long narrative poems, and a few other verses.

M1. Inspirational Music

Wed, 09 Apr 2025 04:00:00 +0000

Historical Jesus ACAPELLA presents the enthralling, riveting, epic story of Christian music. One cannot underestimate the importance of Christian Hymns and how their powerful melodic messages greatly shaped modern Christianity. The Bible is the most significant book in the Western canon. It’s also the book upon which the post antiquity Western civilization was built upon, including the occidental music traditions. Together we will try and understand why this immensely important and influential book, religion, and its vocal hymns inspired so many of the faithful over the centuries. Although our planet is populated by adherents to many different religions, as well as secular atheists and agnostics, one should never undervalue the key role played by Christianity and the Judeo-Christian traditions in the evolution of the ecclesiastical and popular music we enjoy today.

EXTRA 66. Walter Raleigh's City of Gold

Sat, 05 Apr 2025 04:00:00 +0000

One of the most notable figures of the Elizabethan era, Sir Walter Raleigh (1552-1618) played a leading part in English colonization of America and helped defend England against the Spanish Armada. He was an English statesman, author, soldier, explorer, and a favorite courtier of England's Tudor Queen, Elizabeth the First. He was the younger half-brother of American explorer Sir Humphrey Gilbert and a cousin of adventurer Sir Richard Grenville. In 1594, Raleigh heard of a "City of Gold" in the New World and sailed across the Atlantic Ocean to find it, publishing an account of his experiences in a book that contributed to the legend of "El Dorado". In 1595, Raleigh’s quest for the New World’s fabled ‘City of Gold’ led him on an exciting adventure in search of the legendary and mythical golden city of El Dorado.

EXTRA 65. El Dorado

Sat, 29 Mar 2025 09:37:15 +0000

The legend of the Seven Cities of Gold (aka Fabled Cities of Cibola) became mixed with the stories of El Dorado, which was sometimes said to be one of the seven cities. El Dorado is applied to a legendary New World story in which precious stones were found in fabulous abundance along with gold coins. Sir Walter Raleigh of Roanoke fame would later take up the search for the mythical kingdom. Francisco Vazquez de Coronado was a Spanish conquistador who led an expedition from Mexico through the southwestern USA in search of the fabled Cities of Cibola in the sixteenth century. He had hoped to reach the continent’s El Dorado located throughout the pueblos of the New Mexico Territory. Francisco Vazquez de Coronado (1510-54) was a Spanish conquistador who led a North American expedition to reach the continent’s El Dorado from Mexico through the southwestern USA in search of the mythical kingdom.

EXTRA 64. Victorious England

Sat, 22 Mar 2025 04:00:00 +0000

In 1588, the dreaded Spanish Armada is coming closer and closer. It's up to the Queen’s Sea Dogs and navy to stop them, but will they succeed in convincing Queen Elizabeth that such action is necessary? And when the Spanish ships finally arrive, what will happen to the Virgin Queen and the citizens of London? And how will this affect the exploration, settlement and colonization of America? The eventual defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588 brought fame, both for England and Queen Elizabeth I, and greatly affected the future development of America. Europe was stunned that such a small island nation had successfully defended itself against such a major aggressor and foreign diplomats began to court England as a possible ally. Elizabeth's popularity soared. The impact of the victory for the nation's self-confidence and the future of American exploration and colonization cannot be overestimated. England’s success was celebrated in all manners of ways. Songs were written, medals struck, portraits painted and prints published. All lauded Elizabeth as a savior who stood firm to protect her nation, shared the glory of the success with the English navy and gave thanks for divine intervention.

EXTRA 63. The Spanish Armada

Sat, 15 Mar 2025 04:00:00 +0000

The Anglo-Spanish War was an intermittent conflict (1585–1604) between the Kingdoms of Spain and England. The war included much English privateering against Spanish treasure ships in the New World, and several major sea battles including the Spanish Armada. On May 28th, 1588, a fleet of a hundred and fifty-one Spanish ships set out from Lisbon, bound for England. Its mission was to transport a huge invasion force across the Channel. The Spanish King, Philip II, was determined to remove Queen Elizabeth from the throne and return the English to the Catholic fold. Two months later the mighty Spanish Armada was sighted off the coast of Cornwall. This tale of religious dispute, shifting political alliance and naval supremacy influenced the subsequent exploration, commercialization, settlement and colonization of America.

Queen Elizabeth was crowned and buried in 1603 at Westminster Abbey, a large twin-towered Gothic church with a vast interior. Founded over a millennium ago, it is one of the United Kingdom’s most notable religious buildings and the traditional place of coronation and burial site for English and, later, British monarchs.
