Story Secrets - The Pit: The Grittiest Medical Drama Since ER 10:31

1d ago10:31

10:31

If you were addicted to ER back in the day like I was, you might want to check out The Pit. It’s a new medical drama starring Noah Wyle (Dr. Carter from ER), and it has that same chaotic, high-intensity energy—but with a much darker, grittier edge. Set in the emergency room of a major city hospital—nicknamed The Pit because it feels like a war zone…

Have you seen the first episode of Wheel of Time Season 3? Amazon dropped three episodes at once, and I’ve watched the first one—and wow, they have seriously stepped up their game. For those unfamiliar, Wheel of Time is one of the most famous fantasy book series out there. Robert Jordan started it, crafting an epic world where history repeats itsel…

Story Secrets - Why Adolescence is the Best Netflix Series You’re Not Watching 7:04

10h ago7:04

7:04

There’s a new series on Netflix that’s suddenly blowing up, even though it wasn’t really advertised. No big promotional campaign, no flashy trailers—just word of mouth making it explode in popularity. And after watching the first episode, I totally get why. It’s called Adolescence, and at first glance, it sounds like a typical crime drama. A 15-yea…

Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland (BWV 61) aria: "Öffne dich" 24:12

2d ago24:12

24:12

At the beginning of our podcast seasons, we always look at a new part of BWV 61. This week Christian chooses what may be the most pure, unassuming aria of total soul transcendence. The aria "Öffne dich" is the 'heart' of this regal Advent cantata, and offers an opposite effect of the other parts while we hear a plead (from us) to our own heart: "Op…

Story Secrets - The True Story of St. Patrick 5:03

31m ago5:03

5:03

Most of what people think they know about St. Patrick isn’t actually true. He wasn’t Irish. He probably didn’t chase snakes out of Ireland. And he definitely didn’t invent green beer (sorry, folks). But here’s something even more surprising: we have a firsthand account of his life, written by St. Patrick himself. It's called The Confessio, and it’s…

Stand Firm in the Lord! 32:14

6d ago32:14

32:14

Sermon – March 16 , 2025 One of the challenges we face in our Christian journey is maintaining consistency in our walk with the Lord. For some, following Jesus is difficult, and for others, it is intensely challenging, especially when living in a hostile environment. However, this does not mean that following Jesus is easy for those who do not face…

Story Secrets - Warrior Cats: Into the Wild Review (Spoilers) 15:32

24m ago15:32

15:32

Okay, confession time. I did not expect to get emotionally invested in a book about warrior cats. But Into the Wild pulled me in fast. At first, I thought, "Oh, this will be a fun, light read." And then suddenly, I was knee-deep in clan politics, betrayals, and existential questions about loyalty. This book is way smarter than it looks. And today, …

Story Secrets - How I Fell in Love with Reading Again 16:02

9m ago16:02

16:02

I was a library kid. My happy place was a quiet corner, surrounded by books, far from the constant noise of home—my dad’s bagpipes, my brother’s piano practice, and the general chaos of family life. Yet despite my love for books, there was a long period when I barely read at all. What happened? School. In the Netherlands, we were forced to read “re…

Story Secrets - Severance Is 'Lost' for the Streaming Generation 15:42

1d ago15:42

15:42

I can’t stop talking about Severance. It’s rare for a show to capture my imagination the way this one does. Every episode is like a puzzle piece, and the internet is buzzing with speculation, theories, and analysis. It reminds me of the Lost era when fans would dissect every frame for hidden clues. What makes Severance so special? A Thriving Fan Co…

Story Secrets - The Magic of Star Wars Toys 15:11

14h ago15:11

15:11

If you grew up with Star Wars, you probably had that one toy that defined your childhood. Maybe it was a lightsaber, an action figure, or a model of the Millennium Falcon. For me, those early Star Wars toys were more than just collectibles—they were how we kept the magic alive between movies. Back then, you couldn’t just rewatch Star Wars whenever …

Story Secrets - The Role of Providence in The Hobbit 13:29

10d ago13:29

13:29

Over the weekend, I dived into a fascinating series of lectures on The Hobbit by Joseph Pearce. If you're not familiar with his work, he's written extensively about the deeper layers of Tolkien's stories, especially their Catholic themes. But this lecture series really opened my eyes to something I hadn’t fully appreciated before: the role of grace…

Lovingkindness at the margins 27:25

3d ago27:25

27:25

We explore Ruth 2:14-17 which reminds us that God’s lovingkindness reaches those on the margins. Just as Jesus stepped into our messy world, the story of Boaz and Ruth teaches us that kindness, justice, and hospitality transform lives. When we intentionally create margins in our busy lives, we open ourselves to see and serve the poor, oppressed, an…

Welcome to season 5 of A Moment of Bach! We kick off the season with a suggestion from Charles Raasch -- the Great Fantasia and Fugue. Does Bach know where he's going with this one?

His name was St. Brendan the Navigator, and his legendary voyage to a mysterious land echoes through some of the greatest fantasy stories ever written. I’ve been diving deep into early medieval Irish history while writing my own fantasy no…

Story Secrets - The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue – A Deal with the Devil, But at What Cost? 15:57

6d ago15:57

15:57

The idea of making a deal with the devil has been explored in countless stories, but The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by Victoria Schwab does something truly unique with it. This book surprised me—in the best way possible. The story follows Addie, a young woman in 1714 France who, in a desperate moment, makes a bargain with a mysterious figure nam…

That’s the premise of The Lazarus Project, a sci-fi series I recently started watching, and let me tell you—it’s fascinating. The story follows George, an ordinary guy who su…

The trailer for Andor Season 2 just dropped, and wow—it reminded me why this series is one of the best things to come out of Star Wars in years. And no, it’s not just because of the gritty storytelling or the fantastic cinematography. It’s because Andor is about something bigger than a galaxy far, far away. At its core, Star Wars has always been ab…

Sermon – March 2 , 2025 Listening is essential, especially in our Christian journey. When someone does not listen, it can feel as though you do not exist or are not part of the relationship. Without listening, there won’t be a connection. The first step in building a relationship is being heard and understood. The Israelites held Moses and Elijah i…
