'Give the Pain to Jesus': Pussycat Dolls Singer Reveals Abortion Regret, God's Healing and Forgiveness

A former pop star is opening up for the first time about the pain she felt over three painful abortions, sharing on social media that Jesus can "heal the pieces" and provide forgiveness. Kaya Jones, 38, appeared on Students for Life of America's "Speak Out with Christine Yeargin" podcast last week. The former Pussycat Doll opened up about her experience of being in the group and the painful cost of stardom, explaining to Yeargin that she often felt like she was a prostitution ring instead of a girl band.

One of the great religious debates has always been if there is a God, where can he be found? Popular thinking in our culture includes three popular camps on the subject, but all of them miss the surprise of Epiphany. For atheists, the answer is simple: Nowhere! He cannot be found anywhere because God does not exist. For believers in the Deity, however, two popular answers are contradictory. For those with deistic tendencies, God is very majestic and distant. We can’t find him because he really does not want to interact with us and desires to remain mostly aloof. He is hidden in his distant Heaven, and we are here on earth, and that is the end of the matter. For others, however, God is ...

Even if you or I were to spend a thousand lifetimes poring over the words of the Book of Hebrews, we’d still never exhaust all of its riches. Hebrews, of course, is a New Testament book of immense depth, brimming with an array of weighty truths, forming an indispensable link between the biblical testaments. Without Hebrews, much of what we know and believe as Christians wouldn’t make a lick of sense since it is the gospel, according to Hebrews, which gives the good news of God’s salvation in Christ with untold clarity and certainty. The writer of Hebrews does this essentially by shedding light on the varied Old Testament means and methods by which God’s people communed ...

In 1865 the American poet, William Ross Wallace, wrote a poem in praise of motherhood. The refrain of the poem was the sentence, “For the hand that rocks the cradle is the hand that rules the world.” In the first half of the twentieth century, “He who controls the teachers’ college controls the future,” was an adage bandied about in graduate school classrooms in universities and in boardrooms on Wall Street. I believe it was Jonathan Kozol, the ex-officio grandfather in the U.S. of home- schooling education, who insisted that government control of the content and methodology of education in public schools was a way of channeling students into a future that primarily ...

Gospel: Matthew 2:1-12 (Epiphany: Series A)
Post Date: 2022-12-27 20:36:48 by Charles_Byrd

Epiphany is the celebration of God revealing Christ to us because we could never intuitively figure it out. God reveals Christ to us, and “us” has no limits when it comes to God’s work in revealing His Son to be our Savior. Any notions of “us” and “them” are erased under the mercy of God. God’s revelation extends to outsiders like the Magi. When the original readers of Matthew’s Gospel got to Chapter 2, verse 1, they would not have thought of wise men. They would have thought of pagan outsiders. They would have said: “Magi! What are they doing here? Them? They’re outsiders.” One might even expect their foolishness to disqualify ...

With this Feast, the Baptism of Our Lord, Christmas ends, though it continues in spirit as a liturgical cycle until Candlemas (the third Sunday of Epiphany) when we recall Mary’s post-birth Purification and Our Lord’s Presentation in the Temple. On this day, the octave of Epiphany (celebrated two days ago) continues. We now focus on the epiphany of Jesus’ baptism by John the Baptizer in the Jordan River. He whose birth we just celebrated and who has been unveiled to the gentiles (represented by the Magi) now shows us how to be born again or “born from above.” In doing so, Christ confers on us, through union with Him, all He accomplished on our behalf, even the full ...

Columnist E.J. Dionne of The Washington Post may sometimes be infuriating, but he is never unintelligent. After graduating from Harvard, Dionne was named a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford where he earned a doctorate in sociology. He is always thoughtful, analytical, and polite. He is decidedly liberal when comes to both politics and theology, but he also seems to find conservatives to be interesting, if sometimes downright dangerous. Even more recently, he seems to find conservative Christians to be perplexing. In a column published Sunday, Dionne asks about our opposition to same-sex marriage: “Why draw the line here?” Click for Full Text!

Have you ever wanted your friend or loved one to come to the faith, but it just was not happening? Have you ever asked God to help you to be used as a witness concerning Jesus for that person? Have you ever asked God to do something through you that you considered truly significant for the building of His kingdom and the glory of His name? Mind you, for you, this is not some silly spiritual hype. You are sincere about this. For you it does not come from spiritual vanity. You are honestly not trying to get a notch on your belt for Christ. You just legitimately cannot imagine Heaven without them. You genuinely care for their soul. So, you secretly had a lot of hope that this year would be the ...

If there is anything Saint Paul in Galatians or Martin Luther in the Reformation should impress upon you, it is the fact that when it comes to our redemption, when it comes to the King reclaiming His once-usurped kingdom and citizens, when it comes to being saved, God is the prime mover. The LORD is the primary actor. God determines the appropriate moment for the new age to break into the old and how it will be so. It is the Father who sends first His Son and then the Holy Spirit (we cannot get them to come). God set the terms of the Covenant (not us). The Lord fulfills the Covenant (not us). The Lord applies the Covenant (not us). The Lord determines the composition of His family (not us). ...
Out of Order

When you see an “Out of Order” sign posted, you know that something doesn’t work. It’s broken. It could be that it simply needs a new part or component, and supplying it puts things back into working order. It could be that it needs to be filled with something—fuel or lubricant for an engine or product for a vending machine—and supplying that which is lacking puts it back into working order. In this way, out of order indicates a static and inactive thing. It’s broken, so it just sits there, until someone does something to fix it. Rarely, however, do we think that an out-of-order sign indicates not only that the thing is not working but also that it is ...

The angel Gabriel announces to the virgin Mary that she is to be the mother of the Messiah. Nothing is impossible for God. Mary is taken by surprise. She wasn’t planning on this. She was engaged to be married. In hindsight, it is pretty obvious that the Mother of Our Lord needed to be married. She would need a husband to raise the Messiah. The Messiah would need an earthly father in order to be properly protected, provided for, and educated. I don’t think that is what we usually think about when we hear that the virgin will conceive and bear a Son. We don’t think about her being married or the Messiah’s need for an earthly father. We focus on the miracle of conception ...
