After days of intense diplomatic drama over Ukraine, and as President Zelenskyy visits the UK, we debate the morality of making peace. The Ukrainian President's meeting with US President Donald Trump ended in a tense confrontation. It had all begun politely but descended into a verbal bust-up. Mr Trump said it made for good television, but with thousands of lives at stake—not to mention global peace—we wanted to explore what price should be paid for peace and what the rights and wrongs of continuing to fight are. Emily Buchanan speaks to Jan Halper Hayes, Republican commentator and former member of the Trump White House transition team, and Professor Janina Dill, Co-director of the Oxford University Institute for Ethics, Law, and Armed Conflict.There's been further fallout from the Church of England's review into the handling of allegations of abuse by the late John Smyth. This was the review that led to the resignation of Archbishop Justin Welby. Now, ten clergy named in that review could face disciplinary proceedings, including former Archbishop of Canterbury George Carey and the Rev Andrew Cornes, who was due to be on the committee selecting the next Archbishop of Canterbury. However, the Church's National Safeguarding Team says other clergy criticised in the report will not face disciplinary action due to "insufficient evidence to meet the threshold for disciplinary proceedings." We heard from one alleged victim of abuse, Augustine Tanner-Ihm, who is a vicar himself, and asked him whether he thought the latest Disciplinary Action Measure was a step in the right direction.Hollywood is gathering its stars for the 97th Academy Awards, otherwise known as the Oscars.

In this episode I talk about two big incidents in recent news: the re-election of Trump and the resignation of Archbishop Justin Welby. On the one hand, a toxic masculine man, trusted to rescue the USA, on the other, a safeguarding scandal that has cost him his job. What does this all tell us about leadership? Are we asking too much? Or lost to stereotypes of those we want in power? There are few answers but lots of questions. Thank you for listening!

Church of England chaplain Rev. Dr Bernard Randall spoke to Martin Stanford on LBC this morning. He is pursuing a judicial review of a decision not to allow a disciplinary case to proceed against the Bishop Libby Lane, who was found to have wrongly blacklisted him as a safeguarding risk for giving a sermon on identity politics. Before seeking permission for a judicial review, Dr Randall also handed in a CitizenGO petition signed by more than 40,000 people calling on Justin Welby to apologise and give him his life and career back.

Kate Bowler, Writer & Professor Instagram: @katecbowler X: @katecbowler Facebook: @katecbowler About Kate Bowler Kate Bowler, Ph.D. is a 4x New York Times bestselling author, award-winning podcast host, and professor at Duke University. She studies the cultural stories we tell ourselves about success, suffering, and whether (or not) we're capable of change. She wrote the first and only history of the American prosperity gospel—the belief that God wants to give you health, wealth, and happiness—before being unexpectedly diagnosed with stage IV cancer at age 35. While she was in treatment and not expected to survive, she wrote two New York Times bestselling memoirs, Everything Happens for a Reason (and Other Lies I've Loved) and No Cure For Being Human (and Other Truths I Need to Hear). After years of being told she was incurable, she was declared cancer-free. But she was forever changed by what she discovered: life is so beautiful and life is so hard. For everyone. Kate is determined to create a gentler world for everyone who wants to admit that they are not “living their best life.” She hosts the Everything Happens podcast where, in warm, insightful, often funny conversations, she talks with people like Malcolm Gladwell, Tig Notaro, and Archbishop Justin Welby about what they've learned in difficult times. Author of seven books including Good Enough, The Lives We Actually Have, and her latest, Have a Beautiful, Terrible Day!, she lives in Durham, North Carolina, with her family and continues to teach do-gooders at Duke Divinity School.
Can the Church of England escape from the deadly grip of bishops and bureaucrats who spend their entire time genuflecting to the metropolitan Left? Why does Archbishop Justin Welby wade obsessively into secular political battles when his churches are emptying? And do worshippers realise that eye-watering sums of money are being siphoned off from their parishes in order to fund worthless exercises in social engineering? In this episode of Holy Smoke, the Rev Marcus Walker, Rector of St Bartholomew the Great in the City of London, reveals the scale of the crisis facing the Established Church. His analysis is devastating. Among the subjects he addresses is the cultural cringe that led Welby and gang to value the opinions of Paula Vennells, the disgraced former head of the Post Office who nearly became Bishop of London, over those of qualified theologians and parochial clergy. Under its current Rector, the ancient parish of St Bart's has become a beacon of hope for proud traditional Anglicans. Marcus tells me how he's reaching out to a new generation of Christians bored out of their minds by episcopal jargon – and also what he thinks of Pope Francis's attempt to crush the Latin Mass. It's a rollercoaster of an interview with one of the great clerics of our age. Don't miss it!
This is Garrison Hardie with your CrossPolitic Daily News Brief for Wednesday, May 31st, 2023. https://www.christiantoday.com/article/archbishop.distressed.by.attacks.on.christians.in.india/140278.htm Archbishop 'distressed' by attacks on Christians in India The Archbishop of Canterbury has lamented violent attacks on indigenous tribal Christians in north-eastern India. Archbishop Justin Welby said he was "distressed" by the reports of violence coming out of Manipur state in recent weeks. Writing on Twitter, the Archbishop said he was praying that "justice and peace would prevail" in the region. The violence, carried out by Hindu nationalists, has killed dozens and displaced around 10,000 people, mostly Christians. Many churches and buildings belonging to Christians have also been destroyed. The Archbishop said he was praying "that regional authorities would protect all minority groups, including Christians and their places of worship, and that justice and peace would prevail". Open Doors last week shared reports from Christian partners on the ground fear that the violence will lead to a civil war. They have expressed disappointment at what they see as a lack of action by the Indian government and local authorities to quell the violence. According to Open Doors, at least 300 churches have been burned or demolished and 1,000 Christian homes have been destroyed in Manipur in the last few weeks. The NGO is providing support to Christians caught up in the violence but has warned that conditions are "grim", and many are still fearing for their lives. "If the situation continues civil war is inevitable," said an Open Doors partner who cannot be named for security reasons. "If there is a civil war the situation will only become more gruesome, more lives lost, properties destroyed and further open persecution of religious minorities." https://taskandpurpose.com/news/taliban-humvee-m240-iran-fight/ The Taliban is using leftover American gear to fight a border skirmish with Iran A gunfight broke out between Iranian border guards and Taliban fighters along the border between Iran and Afghanistan this weekend. Fighting killed three people in the biggest escalation between the two countries over water. And the Taliban brought out a big gun to help. Video posted to social media offered an up-close view of the skirmish, inside an unexpected place: an Humvee kitted out with an M240 machine gun. If that looks familiar it’s because those are some of the pieces of military equipment captured by the Taliban, now put into use for fighting other parties. Other accounts shared online reported heavy machine gun fire, as well as purported use of mortars and other explosives. Outside of the Humvee, Taliban fighters were spotted using AK-style rifles and RPGs to attack the Iranian position on the border. At least three people are confirmed to have died in Saturday’s gunfight, although accounts vary on how many belonged to each side. The Taliban claimed at least one of its fighters was killed, while an Iranian paper said all deaths were on Iran’s side, per al-Jazeera. The fighting took place in the Nimroz province of Afghanistan. As a result, the border crossing between Milak and Zaranj in Iran and Afghanistan, respectively, closed (it was not where the fighting took place). Both nations accused the other of starting the gunfight. The fighting between the two nations broke out amid political fights over water rights. Drought has been a serious issue in Afghanistan for the last three years. The Helmand River flows from Afghanistan into Iran and is dammed on the Afghan side. Earlier in May, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi called on the Taliban not to restrict the flow of water. More than a year since the Taliban took control of Afghanistan, the group is using all kinds of seized American and NATO weapons. It’s not a new development. The Taliban regularly used captured American-provided equipment when fighting the U.S.-backed government. In the later years of the war, special Taliban units were spotted wearing American-style driving Humvees and even wielding weapons belonging to special operations units. During the fall of Kabul in 2021, Los Angeles Times reporter Nabih Bulos captured footage of Taliban fighters in the city dressed like special operations forces. When the U.S.-backed government fell and the Afghan security forces collapsed, the Taliban got its hand on a lot of leftover weapons and equipment. A 2022 report from the Pentagon’s lead inspector general for Operation Enduring Sentinel and Operation Freedom’s Sentinel found that approximately $7.12 billion in equipment was still in the country when the Taliban took over. That included everything from rifles to aircraft. https://www.newsmax.com/world/globaltalk/africa-uganda-gay-rights/2023/05/29/id/1121533/ Uganda Signs Anti-gay Law With Death Penalty for 'Aggravated Homosexuality' Uganda's president has signed into law tough new anti-gay legislation supported by many in this East African country but widely condemned by rights activists and others abroad. The version of the bill signed by President Yoweri Museveni does not criminalize those who identify as LGBTQ, a key concern for campaigners who condemned an earlier draft of the legislation as an egregious attack on human rights. But the new law still prescribes the death penalty for "aggravated homosexuality," which is defined as cases of sexual relations involving people infected with HIV as well as with minors and other categories of vulnerable people. A suspect convicted of "attempted aggravated homosexuality" can be imprisoned for up to 14 years, according to the legislation. Parliamentary Speaker Anita Among said in a statement the president had "answered the cries of our people" in signing the bill. "With a lot of humility, I thank my colleagues the Members of Parliament for withstanding all the pressure from bullies and doomsday conspiracy theorists in the interest of our country," the statement said. Museveni had returned the bill to the national assembly in April, asking for changes that would differentiate between identifying as LGBTQ and actually engaging in homosexual acts. That angered some lawmakers, including some who feared the president would proceed to veto the bill amid international pressure. Lawmakers passed an amended version of the bill earlier in May. Homosexuality was already illegal in Uganda under a colonial-era law criminalizing sexual activity "against the order of nature." The punishment for that offense is life imprisonment. The U.S. has warned of economic consequences over legislation described by Amnesty International as "draconian and overly broad." The leaders of the U.N. AIDS program, the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief and the Global Fund in a joint statement Monday said they "are deeply concerned about the harmful impact" of the legislation on public health and the HIV response. "Uganda's progress on its HIV response is now in grave jeopardy," the statement said. "The Anti-Homosexuality Act 2023 will obstruct health education and the outreach that can help end AIDS as a public health threat." That statement noted that "stigma and discrimination associated with the passage of the Act has already led to reduced access to prevention as well as treatment services" for LGBTQ people. Anti-gay sentiment in Uganda has grown in recent weeks amid news coverage alleging sodomy in boarding schools, including a prestigious one for boys where a parent accused a teacher of abusing her son. The February decision of the Church of England 's national assembly to continue banning church weddings for same-sex couples while allowing priests to bless same-sex marriages and civil partnerships inflamed many in Uganda and elsewhere in Africa. Homosexuality is criminalized in more than 30 of Africa's 54 countries. Some Africans see it as behavior imported from abroad and not a sexual orientation. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/house-oversight-committee-taking-steps-to-hold-fbi-director-wray-in-contempt-of-congress-over-biden-document Republicans to hold FBI Director Wray in contempt of Congress over Biden document House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer is taking steps to hold FBI Director Christopher Wray in contempt of Congress after the Bureau notified the panel it will not comply with its subpoena related to a possible criminal scheme involving then-Vice President Joe Biden. The FBI, though, said Tuesday evening it remains committed to cooperating with Congress, and will provide access to the document "in a format and setting that maintains confidentiality and protects important security interests and the integrity of FBI investigations." Comer, R-Ky., has subpoenaed the FBI for a document that allegedly describes a criminal scheme involving Biden and a foreign national and relating to the exchange of money for policy decisions. The document is an FBI-generated FD-1023 form. Comer first subpoenaed the document earlier this month. The FBI did not turn it over and instead explained that it needed to protect the Bureau's confidential human source program. Comer set another deadline last week, giving Wray until Tuesday, May 30, to turn over the document. After the deadline was set, Wray set up a call with Comer for Wednesday, May 31. However, the FBI notified the panel it would not provide the document to the committee by the Tuesday afternoon deadline. He added, "Americans deserve the truth, and the Oversight Committee will continue to demand transparency from this nation’s chief law enforcement agency." In response, the FBI told Fox News Digital that the bureau "remains committed to cooperating with the Committee in good faith."

He added, "Americans deserve the truth, and the Oversight Committee will continue to demand transparency from this nation’s chief law enforcement agency." In response, the FBI told Fox News Digital that the bureau "remains committed to cooperating with the Committee in good faith."

It's Tuesday, May 2nd, A.D. 2023. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Nigerian Muslims killed 20 villagers Last week, another 20 villagers were killed by Islamic extremists during a two-day massacre in the Nigerian Nasarawa State. Shockingly, the police never showed up. One resident told International Christian Concern, “We lost hope in the Nigerian Police.” Artificial Intelligence will lead to more persecution of Christians Artificial Intelligence is a rising concern for the persecuted church. Pastor Mao Zhibin is warning Chinese Christians that “with the data collected from WeChat and hundreds of millions of surveillance cameras which are processed with artificial intelligence algorithms, the power is way beyond any other totalitarian regime.” China recently banned its citizens on WeChat from using religious words, including “Christ.” Unbelievably, a baptism video posted on the platform recently led to a Chinese pastor's arrest. Global Christian Relief lists five ways Artificial Intelligence could be used to persecute Christians. Surveillance and facial recognition. Censorship and content filtering. Deepfakes -- or digitally manipulating one person's likeness with another -- to create fabricated events or speeches. Predictive policing to anticipate crimes before they occur. Highly unregulated, autonomous weapons designed to kill innocent people. King Charles' polytheistic ceremony this Saturday Now that a minority of those in Great Britain call themselves Christians, the coronation ceremony for King Charles this coming Saturday, May 6th, is adapting. All major religions will be recognized in a more polytheistic ceremony. Archbishop Justin Welby issued a statement noting that, “The service contains new elements that reflect the diversity of our contemporary society.” Buddhist, Hindu, Jewish, Muslim and Sikh leaders will participate. Yet, according to the official coronation oath, Charles will vow to “maintain the Laws of God and the true profession of the Gospel. … And do the utmost in his power to maintain in the United Kingdom the Protestant Reformed Religion established by law.” Biden wants to penalize good creditors and reward bad ones The Biden administration has released new rules on home mortgages intended to punish families with good credit scores, and offering better mortgage rates to people with worse credit scores. In a letter to the White House, state treasurers from 27 states have weighed in on the policy, calling out the plan as a “disaster. It amounts to a middle-class tax hike that will unfairly cost American families millions upon millions of dollars. And – at a time when the real estate market has already slowed considerably due to high interest rates – it will further depress home sales." The National Association of Realtors has also come out against the new rules. Since 2008, the federal government has issued these LLPA fees to help offset the risks borne by Fannie and Freddie Mac, the federal government's mortgage institutions, under the rubric of the Federal Housing Finance Agency. The fee is often hidden, as lenders will adjust the mortgage interest rates to include the fee. Leviticus 19:15 warns government officials: “You shall do no injustice in court. You shall not be partial to the poor or defer to the great.” And Exodus 30:15 says, “The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less.” Coca-Cola shareholders resoundingly voted down Woke resolution Last week, the shareholders for Coca-Cola voted down a resolution advocating divestiture from pro-life states — get this — by a vote of 87% to 13%, reports World Magazine. By contrast, it seems that the boardrooms of America's corporations have already gone Woke. A full 75% of the largest 15 companies in the U.S. have a 100% perfect score on the Homosexual Human Rights Campaign Woke survey. And two-thirds of the nation's 500 largest companies provide transgender-inclusive health insurance, up from 3% just 13 years ago. First Republic Bank goes belly up First Republic Bank became the third big bank failure for the year yesterday. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation took control of it, dismembered it, and then handed what was left to JP Morgan Chase Bank, reports WolfStreet.com. That included $173 billion in loans, $30 billion in securities, and JP Morgan gets the $92 billion in deposits. Thus far, the three bank failures this year add up to about $540 billion in total assets. That compares to about $420 billion in bank failures in the 2008-2009 timeframe. The First Republic Bank failure will cost taxpayers another $13 billion, according to FDIC estimates. Japan warms up to Abortion Kill Pill as fertility has plummeted And finally, Japan is moving towards approving the mifepristone Abortion Kill Pill. A panel from Japan's Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare voted to approve the kill pill last month, allowing women to kill their pre-born babies up to the ninth week of gestation. Japan's fertility rate has dropped to 1.3 per woman. The countries with the lowest birth rates in the world, by use of conception control, abortifacients, and abortion, are Puerto Rico, Portugal, Spain, Bulgaria, Greece, Taiwan, Japan, and South Korea which is at a shocking .79. But let us remember the wisdom of Psalm 9:8. “The Lord. . .will judge the world in righteousness.” Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Tuesday, May 2nd in the year of our Lord 2023.

Justin Welby has been the Archbishop of Canterbury since 2013. Before he began training for ministry in 1989, Archbishop Justin worked in the oil industry for 11 years. His new book, The Power of Reconciliation encourages peacebuilding at all levels, turning the abstract idea of reconciliation into something that can be done throughout life. Krishnan joined the Archbishop at Lambeth Palace to talk about what reconciliation is, and how we can use it to approach wars, culture wars and personal conflicts as well as what the role of church is in a time of war.

Produced by St. Andrew UMC, Highlands Ranch, CO. Visit us and learn more about our worship services and other offerings at www.gostandrew.com Content Curator/Narrator: Jerry Lee Butler, St. Andrew UMC All Scripture readings taken from the New Revised Standard Version of the Bible. Today's Liturgy & Readings: As the Russian invasion of Ukraine grows more deadly and destructive, I want to invite you to take a few minutes each day at the noon hour to join the St. Andrew community in prayer for the citizens, leaders, and nation of Ukraine. Each week, we will offer a simple liturgy for you to use for this purpose, which will include a prayer and scripture reading. As a people of faith, let's commit ourselves to pray and work daily for peace, and to join in solidarity with people of Ukraine. Psalm 23 (NRSV) 1 The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures; he leads me beside still waters; 3 he restores my soul. He leads me in right paths for his name's sake. 4 Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I fear no evil; for you are with me; your rod and your staff— they comfort me. 5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. 6 Surelygoodness and mercyshall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord my whole life long. Prayer God of peace and justice, we pray for the people of Ukraine today. We pray for peace and the laying down of weapons. We pray for all those who fear for tomorrow, that your Spirit of comfort would draw near to them. We pray for those with power over war or peace, for wisdom, discernment and compassion to guide their decisions. Above all, we pray for all your precious children, at risk and in fear, that you would hold and protect them. We pray in the name of Jesus, the Prince of Peace. Amen Composed by: Archbishop Justin Welby, Archbishop Stephen Cottrell Source: https://www.archbishopofyork.org/prayer-ukraine Benediction Beloved Friends, thank you for abiding in this moment of prayer. As you go forth: Serve your God with patience and passion. Be deliberate in enacting your faith. Be steadfast in celebrating the Spirit's power. And may peace be your way in the world. Amen. (a prayer by Glen E. Rainsley, 20th century. Taken from UMC Book of Worship, 559).
