It's Monday, July 20th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Pakistani Christian 13-year-old girl still captive to Muslim man On July 7, the European Parliament condemned Pakistan for its violation of human rights, citing a 13-year-old Christian Pakistani girl who is still fighting for her freedom from the 30-year-old Muslim man who abducted her, reports International Christian Concern. Maria Shahbaz was kidnapped in July 2025 by Shehryar Ahmad, who forced her to convert to Islam and married her against her will. Alliance Defending Freedom came alongside her parents in their fight to regain custody of their child in Pakistan's Federal Constitutional Court in February. Pakistani law states that a minor cannot legally consent to religious conversion or marriage, but shockingly the court ruled in favor of Ahmad when he presented a forged marriage certificate. In Matthew 18:6, Jesus said, “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in Me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.” Shahbaz's parents are not giving up. They are still appealing their daughter's case in court, hoping that justice will swiftly come. According to Open Doors, Pakistan is the eighth worst country worldwide for the persecution of Christians. Send a polite, 3-sentence letter to Rizwan Sheikh, the Pakistan Ambassador to America, asking that he intervene. The address is 3517 International Court NW, Washington, DC 20008. Two U.S. soldiers killed in Iranian attack on military base Two American soldiers were killed on July 17th in an Iranian attack on a U.S. military base in Jordan, reports the Western Journal. In a post on X, U.S. Central Command added, “Four American service members were medically evacuated to Jordanian hospitals. They have since been discharged.” Plus, one soldier is missing. Iran's attacks came after the U.S. launched its seventh consecutive night of air strikes on Iran. Iran makes chilling death threats against President Trump Iranian state media has published a shocking video entitled “Where to kill Trump?”, claiming to know the U.S. leader's motorcade route and the vulnerabilities within his security, reports The Express. The highly concerning footage claimed to reveal “information on the whereabouts of the terrorist president of America” while promising that “access to Trump is possible in these places.” It also alleges to give details about the motorcade that protects the U.S. president, which typically consists of 40 to 50 vehicles. It comes after repeated death threats have been made by Iran following the U.S. assassination of former Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. President Trump's primetime speech on election integrity Last Thursday night, President Donald Trump addressed election security in a nationwide primetime address from the White House, pointing to ways American political leftists and China have compromised our elections, reports The Epoch Times. TRUMP: “You can't have a great country without free and fair elections. All we want is honesty in our elections. Great damage has been done to our country. Our elections were left vulnerable to being rigged and stolen, and the trust of the American people was lost. This cannot be allowed to continue. “Every American -- whether you're a Republican, Democrat, Independent, or otherwise -- should be able to agree that we deserve the most secure, honest, and fair election system anywhere in the world.” President Trump explained that China started compromising our elections in 2020. TRUMP: “Over a period of years, starting during the 2020 election cycle, the People's Republic of China carried out what is believed to be the largest compromise of election data in history, resulting in China's illicit acquisition of 220 million U.S. voter files. That information includes names, addresses, phone numbers, political party preferences, and other sensitive data that would be needed to register to vote. “This data loss presents an unprecedented election security nightmare. The intelligence even shows that China assigned a data exploitation unit specifically to this new project.” And finally, President Trump vowed action to hold people accountable. TRUMP: “The documents we will release, starting tonight, have been gathered by the White House Government Transparency Task Force, a great group of people, supported by our top intelligence agency chiefs, who have all personally reviewed the findings we are presenting this evening and fully confirmed their authenticity. “You can see these documents for yourself at whitehouse.gov. That's whitehouse.gov. Go check it out. Our purpose in disclosing this information is not to weaken confidence in election, but to earn that confidence by confronting vulnerabilities and correcting them very, very quickly, and that's what we're doing.” Homeland Security Secretary vows to prosecute illegal voters In related news, during a Friday press briefing, Secretary of Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin promised to hunt down and prosecute illegal voters in the U.S., noting that 250,000 non-citizens are illegally registered to vote in just four states, reports The Christian Post. Speaking in the wake of President Donald Trump's 25-minute primetime address about election security on July 16th, Mullin outlined an aggressive plan to tighten voter roll integrity, harden election infrastructure, and hold election officials accountable for alleged failures. Senator Marsha Blackburn: No more birth tourism Republican Senator Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee has reintroduced legislation aimed at ending so-called “birth tourism” following the Supreme Court's recent 6-3 ruling in Trump v. Barbara. It held that children born in the United States to illegal aliens and foreign tourists remain entitled to birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment, reports Big League Politics. She said, “Congress must step up to the plate to protect the integrity of American citizenship.” The Ban Birth Tourism Act is co-sponsored by GOP Senators Ted Budd of North Carolina, John Cornyn of Texas, Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming, Tim Sheehy of Montana, Jim Banks of Indiana, and Rick Scott of Florida. The legislation would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to explicitly prohibit foreign nationals from obtaining temporary visas for the purpose of giving birth in the United States. It would also classify birth tourism as a deportable offense, allowing immigration authorities to remove foreign nationals who enter the country for that purpose. Call your two senators anytime -- 24 hours a day 7 days a week -- speaking to a live operator to leave a voicemail at 202-224-3121 and ask them to support the Ban Birth Tourism Act. That's 202-224-3121. Samaritan's Purse deployed disaster relief unit for Texas flood victims On July 17th, churches in the Texas Hill Country opened their doors as flood displacement shelters, taking in families whose homes and recreational vehicles had been swept away by rapidly rising rivers that killed at least two people, reports The Christian Post. Recently more than 30 inches of rain fell over several days, causing the Leona River and Guadalupe River to overflow. Floodwaters surged through the streets, destroying homes, and stranding people and vehicles. The Christian relief group Samaritan's Purse said it was deploying a disaster relief unit to the Hill Country, with staff and volunteer teams set to work in Uvalde County. The group said it was basing operations out of Uvalde Methodist Church, with volunteers beginning on Sunday to help residents remove waterlogged belongings and clear mud from their homes. Consider making a donation to Samaritan's Purse to help the Texas victims of the flood through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. 1 John 3:17 asks, “If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need, but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person?” Worldview listeners weigh in from New York, Texas and Arkansas Deb Staley in Unadilla Forks, New York wrote me and said, “The Worldview never disappoints. It's uplifting, informative, and to the point. The Bible verses are so very helpful. And I love the fact that there are limited news stories. If there were more, I'd begin to tune out. Thank you for what you do.” David O'Hanlon in Burleson, Texas wrote, “I have listened to your broadcast every weekday for about two years which I support monthly. You bring news – especially the persecution of the Church – which I do not hear anywhere else.” And Melissa in Bradford, Arkansas wrote, “I listen to your newscast on my lunch break. I like it because it's truthful news about real people. Plus, you talk about stuff others do not. Thank you.” 26 Worldview listeners gave $ 9,113 And finally, by Saturday night at 10:00pm Central, 26 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to fund the six-member team behind The Worldview for another year.

The conversation explores the realities of staying out of network, how his team communicates value to patients with PPO benefits, and why alignment in language, systems, and culture is critical from the first phone call through long-term retention.

ABOUT THE EPISODE:Dr. Wes Robins sent me a text a few weeks ago, and I stopped what I was doing and read it twice. It was a piece he had written at his kitchen table while his daughters worked on an art project beside him, and it was one of the most honest and beautiful things I have read in all the years I have been doing this work. It started with four words: you are not broken. And it kept going from there.Wes has been a guest on this show before, and I have always admired how he shows up. No pretense, no pedestal. Just a real human being who has done his own hard work and now walks alongside young people and families who are doing theirs. Since we last spoke, he made the gut-wrenching decision to close the treatment center he poured five and a half years into, and what he learned on the other side of that loss is something I think every parent who has ever watched someone they love struggle needs to hear.He is back in private practice now, seeing clients out of a cool 60's ranch house in Alpharetta, GA. He works with young people, with parents, and with families who are trying to figure out how to stay present through things that feel impossible to witness. He's a Ph.D, but has officially taken on the designation of Soul Nurse, and once he explains it, you'll understand exactly what that means.This conversation goes places I did not expect. We talk about the piece Wes wrote for parents, and he reads it aloud, and I am not going to pretend I held it together. We get into the difference between empathy and presence, why watching your child suffer might be asking something of you that has nothing to do with them, and what it actually means to be the flight attendant when your kid is in turbulence.If you have ever felt like you were failing simply by not being able to fix this, this one is for you.YOU'LL LEARN:The wise words Dr. Wes wrote at his kitchen table that stopped me coldHow to think about psychedelics and plant medicines when your child is asking (or using them)The difference between empathy and presence, and why it mattersWhy your child's struggle may be your greatest spiritual teacherWhat being the flight attendant actually looks like when you are terrified yourselfEPISODE RESOURCES:WebsiteDr. Wes Robins Youtube ChannelDr. Wes LinkedIn ProfileEmail address: drwes@eternalstrength.comPsychology Today"When The Map Burns" This podcast is part of a nonprofit called Hopestream CommunityLearn about The Stream, our private online community for momsFind us on Instagram hereWatch the podcast on YouTube hereDownload a free e-book, Worried Sick: A Compassionate Guide For Parents When Your Teen or Young Adult Child Misuses Drugs and AlcoholHopestream Community is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and an Amazon Associate.

In this conversation, I sat down with Kim Jenkins from Empowering Speech Services (https://www.empoweringspeechservices.com/meet-kim) to talk about how she's used the frameworks from Language Therapy Advance Foundations (https://drkarenspeech.com/languagetherapy/) along with the gestalt language processing stages, for reluctant readers, and AAC users. We also talk about how important it is for clinicians to think flexibly with how they apply frameworks in therapy so they can pull from multiple sources to come up with their own personal protocols that work for their caseload. We also chat about other topics such as what “alter ego” we want to emulate when we're going through a challenge, social media strategies and mindset, our dogs, and how to draw parallels between language therapy, clinical practice, fitness, tips for learning how to do pull-ups, and other areas of life. Kim Jenkins is a neurodiversity-affirming speech therapist who is passionate about helping neurodivergent children and their families flourish. Empowering Speech Services was built on the idea that authentic and meaningful communication can be achieved by focusing on a child's strengths, meeting their sensory needs, following their lead, and empowering family members in the process. Serving the Milton and Alpharetta areas of Georgia, she takes the time to truly get to know her clients, their joys, interests, unique strengths, and individual challenges. In this conversation, we discuss:✅ How Kim uses semantic features and syntactic study with AAC users✅ Using the “Essential 5” framework from Language Therapy Advance Foundations with students who use a lot of scripting and gestalts✅ Engaging a reluctant reader literacy and vocabulary work✅ Parallels between life, language therapy, fitness, and social media marketingLearn more about Kim's private practice on her website here: https://www.empoweringspeechservices.com/Visit her on TikTok here: https://www.tiktok.com/@empoweringspeechservices@UCSeGnUyaf6NBHJFBuoUFUTA Visit her on Instagram @empoweringspeechservicesConnect with her on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimberly-jenkins-a0288796/Check out her TeachersPayTeachers store here: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/store/empowering-speech-servicesI mentioned the following previous De Facto Leaders Podcast interviews:EP 205: Using the Essential 5 to Build Vocabulary and Syntax in Secondary School (with Amy Baugh) here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/ep-205-using-the-essential-5-to-build-vocabulary-and-syntax-in-secondary-school-with-amy-baugh/EP 140: Creating an Intentional Career and Life with Alter Egos (with Meg Niman) here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/ep-140-creating-an-intentional-career-and-life-with-alter-egos-with-meg-niman/EP 154: Therapy Session Structure, Narrative Language, and Commentary on Gestalt Language Processing here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/ep-154-therapy-session-structure-narrative-language-and-commentary-on-gestalt-language-processing/Also mentioned in this episode:”Stories that Stick” by Kindra Hall here: https://www.storiesthatstick.com/Sarah Brashears from Social Mogules: @socialmogulsIn this episode, I mentioned Language Therapy Advance Foundations, my program that gives speech pathologists a scalable framework for building language skills needed to thrive in school, social situations, and daily life.

Luxury homebuyers in metro Atlanta are shifting their priorities. Square footage and prestige addresses are no longer the primary drivers. Instead, buyers are focusing on livability, location and long-term functionality. Drew Clough, chief operating officer of Waterford Homes, joins Host Carol Morgan on Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio to discuss why that shift is reshaping the high-end custom home market and how Waterford Homes is differentiating through communication, consistency and disciplined project management in today's competitive luxury homebuilding environment. Elevated Luxury Defined by Process, Not Just Product Waterford Homes has established itself in Atlanta's luxury custom home market by prioritizing the systems behind a successful build rather than relying on a signature architectural style. The builder's competitive advantage comes from consistency, communication and disciplined execution at every stage of construction. Buyers are not only evaluating finishes and floor plans; they are also evaluating how a builder manages the full construction experience, including timelines, trade partners and expectations throughout the process. Those relationships also play a central role in how the company maintains quality and accountability across multiple high-end custom homes at once. High-Demand Atlanta Neighborhoods Waterford Homes continues to work across some of Atlanta's most established luxury submarkets, where demand is shaped as much by lifestyle priorities as by location alone. Each neighborhood attracts a different type of luxury buyer, but all share one common thread: limited supply in highly desirable settings. Chastain Park remains one of Atlanta's most consistently sought-after neighborhoods. Its combination of park access, larger lot sizes and convenient proximity to Buckhead and the airport drives long-term demand. Buyers continue to prioritize the balance between in-town convenience and residential privacy, keeping the area competitive even amid shifting market conditions. Milton offers a very different version of luxury living. Instead of intown walkability, it emphasizes scale, privacy and estate-style properties with strong suburban infrastructure. Clough compares the area's feel to Greenwich, Connecticut, noting its large estates, equestrian influence and established suburban amenities that appeal to buyers seeking space without sacrificing access to Alpharetta and surrounding commercial centers. Virginia-Highland continues to attract buyers who prioritize character and walkability over lot size. The neighborhood blends historic homes with newer luxury infill projects, creating a unique mix of architectural styles near Piedmont Park, Midtown and the Atlanta Beltline. This combination of charm and urban access keeps demand steady, particularly among buyers who want a more connected, in-town lifestyle. Rosemary: A Boutique Community Designed Around Lifestyle One of Waterford Homes' most anticipated projects is Rosemary, a nine-home enclave in Milton near downtown Crabapple and Alpharetta. Clough said, “Rosemary is going to be the most incredible community that we've ever developed.” The neighborhood will feature one-acre-plus homesites and high-end custom residences designed for modern luxury living, including four-car garages, main-level primary suites and expansive outdoor spaces. But beyond design, the area has something increasingly rare in suburban Atlanta: walkability. Clough said, “You're literally right there where you can walk downtown and find lots of restaurants and things to do [in Crabapple].” Build-on-Your-Lot Growth & the Importance of Starting With the Right Team Build-on-your-lot construction continues to gain traction across metro Atlanta, especially in teardown-heavy intown neighborhoods and high-demand suburban areas. As available land becomes more limited in established luxury markets, more homeowners are choosing to purchase existing lots and design custom homes around them. That trend is also exposing a common misstep in the early stages of the process. Clough notes that many homeowners begin with architectural design before fully understanding what their site can realistically support. Clough said, “They should consult with a custom home builder first, not an architect.” That sequencing matters because site-specific factors often shape what is possible long before design details come into play. Lot conditions, grading, tree preservation requirements, setbacks and municipal permitting rules can all significantly influence both design feasibility and overall budget. What Defines Luxury at the $3 Million Price Point Today At the $3 million price point and above, luxury homebuyers in metro Atlanta are prioritizing how a home functions in daily life just as much as how it looks on day one. Builders are responding by investing in both visible and structural elements of the home. High-end finishes, custom cabinetry and detailed millwork remain important, but buyers are also placing greater value on what happens behind the walls. That includes insulation, soundproofing, upgraded framing and other structural enhancements that improve comfort and long-term performance. Outdoor living continues to play a central role in luxury design, especially as homeowners increasingly use their properties as full-time retreats rather than occasional residences. Covered living areas, outdoor kitchens, fireplaces and integrated pools now function as extensions of the interior space rather than secondary amenities. Clough also highlights a growing demand for flexibility in home design, particularly as more buyers plan for multigenerational living or long-term household adaptability. A More Selective Luxury Buyer As inventory in prime locations tightens, the distinction between a strong site and a compromised one has become more pronounced in buyer decision-making. Clough said, “I've seen some incredible homes on B-minus lots having difficulty selling.” By contrast, homes on well-located, premium lots continue to outperform the broader market. These properties often generate stronger interest early in the listing process and, in many cases, attract multiple offers when priced appropriately. Clough said, “My goal is for us to be the top luxury homebuilding company in Atlanta.” By focusing on communication, consistency and disciplined execution, Waterford Homes treats luxury homebuilding as both a technical process and a client experience. In Atlanta's evolving luxury market, that process-driven approach continues to shape how buyers evaluate both builders and communities. To learn more about Waterford Homes, visit WaterfordHomes.com.

On this week's Political Breakfast, we cover majoring bickering between Republicans running for Georgia Governor. Lt. Gov. Burt Jones and billionaire healthcare CEO Rick Jackson are on the attack. Jones has accused Jackson's company, Alpharetta-based Jackson Healthcare, of allowing doctors to perform transgender treatment on minors and prison inmates, and placing staff inside Planned Parenthood facilities. Jackson has accused Jones of using corrupt fundraising methods, and being a "stone cold liar." Republican strategist Brian Robinson and Democratic strategist Tharon Johnson talk with host Lisa Rayam about how that's affecting the other top GOP candidates and the Democrats too. In addition, the team talks about the travel troubles at the nation's airports, including Hartsfield Jackson International in Atlanta. The partisan divide in Congress over voting on funding the Department of Homeland Security, has translated into TSA agents working weeks without a pay check. Many have called it quits -- which means if you're flying, airport officials say you'll be waiting at least 4 hours to get through security. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Georgia's housing market is at a crossroads, with affordability and local regulations shaping new construction across the state. Gabe Chatham, president of the Home Builders Association of Georgia (HBAG) and vice president of Chathambilt Homes, joins Host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to share how builders are navigating these challenges and what it means for first-time homebuyers. The Cost of Permitting Delays One of the most tangible barriers to affordable housing in Georgia is the permitting process. Chatham explains that land disturbance permits, necessary even on properties already zoned for development, can be delayed for months or even years. “If we can cut down that time, that obviously saves some costs on things like engineering holding costs, and hopefully, we'll see the savings passed on to the end user,” Chatham said. When permits and approvals are delayed, the effects extend beyond builders. The supply of homes for first-time buyers shrinks, prices rise and families are often forced to rent longer or relocate farther from work, adding financial and personal strain. What is House Bill 812? Georgia's Home Rule Act further complicates the process. The law gives cities and counties broad control over zoning and design standards, but that autonomy can make it difficult to predict how and when housing will be approved. In 2025, state lawmakers introduced House Bill 812, which would require approval from the Georgia Department of Community Affairs for certain local code amendments. The proposed legislation aims to streamline permitting, particularly for land disturbance permits, though its effectiveness will depend on its implementation at the state and local levels. Supporting Smart Growth & Community Investment Beyond logistics, these regulatory decisions carry long-term consequences for families and communities. With the average age of first-time homebuyers in Georgia now 40, delays and restrictions directly affect generational wealth and family stability, limiting younger adults' ability to establish roots in their communities. Chatham emphasizes the importance of innovative housing solutions, including missing middle housing and build-to-rent projects, to meet the needs of a diverse workforce. Housing policy is not simply about development timelines. It is about ensuring that essential workers and young families can participate in the communities they serve. “We think about our teachers, our firefighters, our police officers… they can't live close by,” Chatham said. “Finding a way to help those people stay invested in the community is going to be healthy for the community long term.” Investing in the Next Generation of Homebuilding Professionals Workforce development is also critical to addressing Georgia's housing challenges. HBAG supports high school programs that teach trade skills, helping address labor shortages in construction while providing students with viable career paths that do not require college debt. Smaller and mid-sized builders often face resource constraints when navigating zoning changes, permitting requirements and evolving legislation. HBAG also provides funding, advocacy and strategic guidance to help these builders remain competitive and keep projects moving forward, ultimately benefiting homebuyers. Chatham said, “By partnering together, we can strategize and utilize the resources we have.” Tune in to the full episode for insight into the policies and solutions shaping the state's housing future.
