"Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life. Rescue me from my enemies, LORD, for I hide myself in you. Teach me to do your will, for you are my God; may your good Spirit lead me on level ground. For your name’s sake, LORD, preserve my life; in your righteousness, bring me out of trouble."

Psalms 143:8-11 NIV

Save your Saturday- April 18th is our next Beautiful Day in Bonny Doon where we help families and folks on their journey back home after the devastating 2020 CZU fires. Many are still working to rebuild, get shade, build fences and need help with all the overgrowth in the last few years. We need volunteers to help with everything from check in to running lunches to w**d whacking and driving some T stakes in for a garden fence. Check out our website to learn more and register to help!

Dr. Jeremiah Johnston shares five reasons the Shroud of Turin is Authentic is recent podcast with Shawn Ryan. After the Shroud of Turin Research Project (STURP) team had access to the Shroud for 5 uninterrupted days and performed dozens of non-destructive tests:

1. Unprecedented Scale Of Scientific Study
* He claims the Shroud is “the most studied artifact in the world”, examined by 102 scientific disciplines and hundreds of thousands of research hours.
* These studies are described as peer-reviewed and multidisciplinary, suggesting broad and serious academic engagement rather than fringe analysis.

2. Statistical Improbability It Is Anyone Else
* A mathematician (Bruno Barbaris) is cited as calculating a 1 in 200 billion probability that the man depicted is not Jesus.
* This is based on combining multiple matching factors (wounds, crucifixion details, etc.), implying a near-unique identity match.

3. Precise Correspondence With Crucifixion Accounts
* The image shows specific physical details:
* Nail wounds in wrists and heels
* Side wound
* Scourge marks
* Crown of thorns pattern
* Shoulder abrasions from carrying the crossbeam.

4. Forensic And Medical Consistency Of The Blood Evidence
* He points to hematological analysis showing:
* Signs of severe trauma, dehydration, and organ failure
* Evidence of pulmonary edema (fluid + blood), matching the biblical “blood and water” description
* The level of medical detail is presented as too complex and accurate to be fabricated by a medieval forger.

5. Geographical And Physical Trace Evidence
* The Shroud contains pollen, limestone, and clay identified as specific to Jerusalem.
* Soil traces on the feet, knees, and nose are interpreted as evidence of a man falling while carrying the cross, consistent with the Gospel narrative.

Overall Interpretation (Johnston’s Argument)
He combines these points to argue that:
* The Shroud is authentic to the time and place of Jesus
* The man suffered exactly as described in the crucifixion accounts
* Therefore, it is not just a relic, but physical evidence tied to the death—and by implication, the resurrection—of Christ
