Why The Furnace? Quite simply because most people in Australia, and the world, can no longer get to Mass, or even into a church. The point of these podcasts is to bring people a share of the Mass in the Word of God and prayer. But why the name? Because the Heart of Jesus is a “Furnace of love”. This is how St Gertrude the Great describes it. As she prays: O Sacred Heart of Jesus, fountain of eternal life, Your Heart is a glowing furnace of Love. You are my refuge and my sanctuary. O my adora ...

What Is X?

“What Is X?” has been described as “a cross between a Platonic dialogue and ‘The Price Is Right.’” It combines dialectical inquiry of the sort perfected by Socrates and his interlocutors with a distinctly ludic spirit. Here’s how it works: For each episode, host Justin E. H. Smith invites on a guest distinguished in their field (or occasionally a “regular” person who really likes to talk). Smith asks the guest to answer a question of the form “What is X?” (for example, “What is beauty?” “Wha ...

Music Is The Soundtrack Of Our Lives! Each week on "Cross Connection" we play a secular song from the 60's & 70's that has either Christian lyrics or principles directly related to the Scriptures. We then discuss the author and/or artist(s) and the song. We look into the lyrics of each song - relating it to the time in which it was originally played on the radio and what, if any, meaning it has today. We make a "Cross Connection" to each song and relate the lyrics to the "timeless" principle ...

This is a podcast from a broken pastor. I am a follower of Jesus Christ but I’m not sure I’m a Christian, at least not with the current Western definition of the word. The American church has become overrun with people who would weaponize the word of God for their own political or social machinations. I no longer see a hospital for the broken in the American church, I see a country club for people who think alike. Jesus was a maverick who thought outside the boundaries of social norms during ...

Because fewer than 7% of Americans have served in uniform, most Americans are unfamiliar with military service and culture. As a result, members of the military and Veteran community are at greater risk for disconnection and lack of belonging with the civilian community. PsychArmor’s mission is to bridge the military-civilian divide by educating and training a Nation. Each week, Duane France, a combat Veteran and Clinical Mental Health Counselor, will dig deep into the stories “Behind The Mi ...

Hope restored was birthed in me in 2012. The Lord clearly spoke to me about preaching the gospel, specifically to those who have been wounded inwardly by life circumstances. To those who feel they are broken, damaged and inwardly dying. In 2012 I didn't understand the cost of carrying this kind of calling but as the song Oceans says I prayed to have trust without borders. The next 11 years has taken me on quite the adventure of being broken, feeling like I was damaged beyond repair, and feel ...
