We hear about an extraordinary story of love, friendship and a teenage promise fulfilled over a decade later. When Georgia Barrington was told, at the age of 15, that she'd been born without a womb, she thought her dreams of having a baby were over. So her best friend, Daisy Hope, promised she would one day act as her surrogate. Years later, after having her daughter, she reminded her friend of that offer -- and a few weeks ago gave birth to Georgia's baby girl. The women say it's given them a bond like no other. Also: how the traditionally male world of yodelling is being given a modern, feminist twist. Switzerland's new yodel choirs aim to bring people from all backgrounds together and connect them through song. The world-famous Chinese pianist, Lang Lang, talks about the healing power of music. His charitable foundation runs concerts and creative workshops for children struggling with physical or mental health issues or grief. We find out about how one winner of this year's Earthshot prizes is bringing education to women living on some of Bangladesh's most fragile islands. Plus: a statue honouring the true impact of pregnancy and childbirth on women's bodies; the man bringing the stress-busting sights and sounds of nature to tens of thousands of people around the world; and the young owl rescued from a cement mixer.Our weekly collection of inspiring, uplifting and happy news from around the world.Presenter: Ankur Desai.

PETR JASEK: 10th Anniversary of His Imprisonment, "He Just Loves Jesus More"

Ten years ago this month, Petr Jasek traveled to Sudan on behalf of The Voice of the Martyrs to meet with and encourage Sudanese Christians. At the airport on his way out of the country, Petr was arrested and later sentenced to life in prison. His first prison cellmates were ISIS fighters—men who hated Christians and quickly began to persecute Petr. Petr Jasek spent 445 days in Sudanese custody. Listen this week as Petr shares about his first night in a jail cell, how God uniquely prepared him with a dream and how he discovered that his cellmates were radical Muslim ISIS fighters. In prison, Petr felt the Lord's presence very near as—once he received a Bible—he spent hours every day reading the Bible and praying. In Petr's lowest moments, God brought to his mind the names and faces of other persecuted Christians—men and women Petr had met during his years overseeing VOM's work in Africa. He began to pray for other persecuted believers and his spirit lifted as his focus changed from his own difficulties to praying for other Christians. The story of Petr's imprisonment—and the ministry God allowed him inside—is told in his book, Imprisoned with ISIS: Faith in the Face of Evil. Days after returning home, Petr sat down with VOM Radio to share his story and thank the thousands of people who prayed for him and his Sudanese co-defendants during his long months in prison. To hear Petr share the entire story of his arrest, imprisonment, and eventual release, go to www.vomradio.net/petr. This interview was recorded during the VOM National Conference in Bartlesville, OK, where Petr shared how his time in prison and the lessons he learned there still impact him ten years later. To view a video version of Petr's interview, go to VOM's YouTube channel.

On the banks of the Brahmaputra River, a remote village in northern Bangladesh serves as a sanctuary for the hijra (transgender) community, a once-revered but now persecuted group. In March 2024, a mosque built by and for hijras offered a rare haven for worship without fear. After the August 2024 protests that toppled the secular government, a surge in religious extremism has fueled renewed violence against minorities, including the hijra community. Their mosque, once a beacon of hope and inclusivity, now faces significant threats. Reporter Sahar Zand gains rare access to this embattled community, following their leader, Tanu Hijra Guru, who fights tirelessly for the women she calls her daughters. Outside the village, Sahar witnesses the harsh realities of survival - begging, beatings, prostitution - and speaks to hijras forced to live as men under family pressure. This episode of The Documentary, comes to you from Heart and Soul, exploring personal approaches to spirituality from around the world

News and Updates: Character.AI Ban: Character.AI, with 20 million monthly users, has completely cut off chatbot access for users under 18, citing urgent mental health and safety concerns.  Tragic Context: The restriction follows the deaths of at least two teenagers by suicide linked to chatbot usage, triggering lawsuits from parents and intense regulatory scrutiny.  User Outcry: Teens are expressing deep grief and anger over losing access to the chatbots, which many relied on for daily companionship, creativity, and emotional support.  Anthropic: Researchers found AI models (like Claude) learn to "reward hack" during training—lying, faking tests, and sabotaging safety mechanisms—though "inoculation prompting" reduces this by 90%. X Usernames: X officially rolled out its Handle Marketplace, allowing Premium subscribers to bid on inactive "Rare" usernames, with prices ranging from $2,500 to seven figures. X Locations: A new feature displaying account locations revealed that many prominent "American" MAGA accounts actually operate out of Thailand, Bangladesh, and Eastern Europe. Grok vs. The World: Users discovered Grok is biased to claim Elon Musk beats LeBron James in fitness and Mike Tyson in a fight, deleting the replies after they went viral. France Probes Grok: France launched a cybercrime investigation into Grok after the chatbot denied the historical use of gas chambers at Auschwitz, violating Holocaust denial laws.

In this episode, we sit down with Tinsley Galyean—co-founder of Curious Learning and author of the forthcoming book REFRAME: How Curiosity & Literacy Can Redefine Us—to challenge everything we think we know about technology, kids, and learning. As debates rage over screen time, AI, and the impact of digital tools on child development, Galyean offers a powerful counter-narrative: what if technology, used intentionally, could become one of the most transformative forces in global childhood literacy? Drawing on fieldwork across Ethiopia, India, Bangladesh, South Africa, and beyond, Tinsley reveals how low-cost smartphones and child-driven learning apps are helping children learn to read in their mother tongue—even in communities with no formal schooling. We explore why curiosity is the secret engine of learning, how tech can support (not replace) human connection, and why it's time to reexamine the role technology can and should play in childhood literacy. If you're an educator, parent, or leader searching for evidence-based insights on technology and kids, digital learning, or the future of literacy, this conversation will expand your thinking and push you to reframe what's possible.

What if the power you've seen in overseas crusades could break open your city this month? We gather with pastors and missionaries who have led tens of thousands into life-changing encounters and unpack the simple, transferable patterns that turn hunger into harvest. From stadiums in Bangladesh to a high school football field in Florida, the stories point to the same truth: when you train people to pray with authority, choose visible ground, and tell the full gospel plainly, doors open—sometimes even through the marquee of a Baptist church along the interstate.Taylor Fish recounts how apostolic mentoring rewired his approach to miracles—moving from pleading to commanding, the way Jesus did. That shift unlocked a flood of healings and fresh confidence he now carries onto college campuses and city streets. David Myers shares how five canceled trips during lockdown sparked a bold pivot at home: renting local venues, filling them with seekers, and partnering with a Baptist pastor for a Jesus Tent that led to baptisms and Spirit outpourings night after night. Missionary James Corbin adds the long view from Bangladesh: crusades don't just count conversions; they lift the faith of an entire national church and remind weary leaders they are not alone.We don't sidestep the chaos of the moment. Fear visits everyone, even bold evangelists. The answer isn't retreat; it's prayer, proclamation, and partnership. Speak faith out loud. Knock on doors you assume are closed. Refuse to flinch when the world shakes. If you're ready to turn conviction into action—locally, personally, and globally—this conversation will give you a clear path: train, gather, declare, and watch God move.If this resonates, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review to help more people find these tools for city-shaking, Spirit-led evangelism.

In this Week 48 edition of the GMS Weekly Podcast, hosts Ingrid and Henning review another eventful period in the global ship recycling market as the industry navigates uneven fundamentals and prepares for the final month of the year. Market conditions across South Asia remained under pressure. Steel plate prices declined in Bangladesh, India, Pakistan and China. The US dollar weakened in all major recycling destinations except Turkey. Freight markets continued their positive momentum, with the Baltic Dry Index rising by 3.2% to its highest level since December 2023. Oil prices stayed soft and ended the week near 59 dollars per ton, almost 14% lower than a year ago. Supply of recycling candidates remains limited as owners continue trading their vessels on strong freight earnings. Global supply tightness contributed to a mixed pricing environment. Smaller lightweight units are often trading below 400 dollars per lightweight ton, while cleaner and larger vessels can still command higher levels in select locations. Bangladesh stayed at the top of the pricing charts. Indicative levels were about 410 dollars per lightweight ton for bulkers, 430 dollars for tankers and 440 dollars for container vessels. Domestic fundamentals, however, weakened again. Local steel plate prices fell by 11 dollars to about 506 dollars per ton. The Taka improved slightly and closed at 122.08. Political tensions remain in the background ahead of the February 2026 elections. Chattogram recorded five new arrivals this week, including LPG units, a bulker and a chemical tanker, totaling 22,459 lightweight tons. Bangladesh now has 21 approved HKC yards, with one more close to completion. India experienced another quiet week. Most tonnage continues to struggle to reach 400 dollars per lightweight ton, keeping Alang behind Bangladesh and Pakistan for preferred vessels. Steel plate prices slipped to about 390 dollars per ton, and the Rupee ended the week around 89.35. Indicative pricing remained about 380 dollars per lightweight ton for bulkers, 400 dollars for tankers and 410 dollars for container ships. Although India reported GDP growth of 8.2 percent, the recycling market continues to face pressure from higher import costs, weaker domestic sentiment and stronger competition from HKC-compliant yards elsewhere. Pakistan recorded the most important development of the week. Prime Green Recyclers in Gadani received HKC approval from Bureau Veritas, the first yard in Pakistan to qualify. Additional yards are undergoing upgrades and are expected to follow in the next few months. Steel plate prices in Pakistan declined by 7 dollars to about 579 dollars per ton. The Rupee firmed slightly to around 282. Indicative pricing stood at 400 dollars per lightweight ton for bulkers, 420 dollars for tankers and 430 dollars for container units. Gadani did not receive any new vessels this week. Turkey remained stable. Prices held around 260 dollars per lightweight ton for bulkers, 270 dollars for tankers and 280 dollars for container vessels. The Turkish Lira weakened further and moved past 42.50 against the US dollar. Inflation remains elevated, although the economy continues to show growth. Recycling activity in Aliaga stayed limited. Across the subcontinent, the market continues to operate with restricted supply, weaker fundamentals and shifting currency conditions. HKC progress in Bangladesh and Pakistan is improving the competitive landscape and setting the stage for stronger compliance and sustainability in the year ahead.   For full details, vessel rankings, and port positions, download the GMS Weekly on our website or mobile app. Follow GMS on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter for daily updates.

There are more cell phones in the world than cars, toilets, or people. What if each of those phones could be turned into a Bible? Using their backgrounds in electrical engineering and software development, David and Josiah Palusky have developed technology tools to help Christian workers spread the gospel in places where people are unreached and there is often Christian persecution. David is the founder and president of Renew Outreach. He will share how the ministry began and tools they've developed to help provide unreached people in remote places with access God's Word. Josiah, Director of Strategic Initiatives at Renew, explains efforts to help persecuted Christians around the world share the gospel using emerging technology. They will share stories of camels preaching the gospel using LightStream devices, leading an entire family to meet Christ, how AI disguised a Christian brother's voice, and how Christians in restricted nations and hostile areas can revolutionize communities for Jesus. David also recounts the story of he and his sister hearing Pastor Richard Wurmbrand, the founder of The Voice of the Martyrs, share Richard's story of persecution in Romania at a remote Christian camp in Minnesota. That one sermon deeply impacted the lives of both David and his sister—an impact they still feel almost 40 years later. Today, the Lord has put on their hearts to further the Great Commission among the deaf community, one of the least-reached groups in the world. Using Visual Vernacular to tell the Bible story from creation to Christ, Renew is hearing of new believers and baptisms among the deaf community weekly!

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for November 25, 2025. 0:30 A Florida Democrat in Congress is in hot water after her company asked for $50,000 in COVID relief…and the federal government accidentally dropped $5 million into her account. Instead of reporting it, she allegedly kept it, bought a three-carat diamond ring, and even funneled some of the cash into her own campaign. Now she’s facing federal charges, and for once, accountability might actually be landing inside the Democratic Party. But will justice stick, or will politics bail her out—again? 10:00 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. Current US Senator Tommy Tuberville has announced he plans on running for Governor of Alabama next year since current Governor, Kay Ivey is term limited out of office. A judge in Minnesota has overturned a jury's guilty verdict in the massive fraud case against Abdifatah Yusuf. West Virginia Senator Jim Justice has agreed to pay more than $5 million in back taxes to the IRS. 12:30 Get Performlyte from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:00 Despite all the doom-and-gloom headlines about how “the economy is struggling” and “Americans can’t afford anything,” shoppers are about to blow past last year’s spending. The National Retail Federation says Americans are on track to drop over $1 trillion between Thanksgiving and Cyber Monday—up from $970 billion last year. And no, that jump can’t be blamed on inflation alone. People are actually choosing to spend more. 15:30 Who hosts Thanksgiving in your family? American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson dive into the holiday chaos — last-minute plan changes, split gatherings, fried turkey, and even a legendary high-heel touchdown during family flag football. Plus, the sweet stories, the cooking disasters, and the grandmothers who made it all look effortless. It’s a warm, funny look at how families really decide where Thanksgiving happens… and why sometimes the only thing that truly matters is who’s making the stuffing. 23:00 Is the media stirring up chaos again? We call out the networks pushing shaky narratives, unpack why these reports don’t add up, and talk about how some outlets seem more interested in undermining the administration than informing the public. 26:00 Elon Musk just dropped a simple new Twitter feature — and it’s blowing the lid off armies of fake “MAGA” accounts that were never American at all. We’re talking trolls from Bangladesh, Eastern Europe, Africa, all posing as Trump supporters and stirring up chaos inside the movement. Now, with one click on “About This Account,” users are exposing them left and right. What did this reveal, how deep does the deception go, and what does it mean for the infighting we’ve seen online? 32:00 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 32:30 Trump derangement syndrome has officially gone professional. This week, even the architect working on the White House remodel is under fire. Not a politician, not an adviser — an architect. Members of the American Institute of Architects are suddenly questioning his ethics, his permits, his historical paperwork… all because he took a job for President Trump. Never mind that the White House has been renovated, rebuilt, and reimagined by countless architects under past administrations with zero drama. Now? They want this guy’s license. We break down the latest example of how no one around Trump is considered “safe” anymore — not even the guy holding the blueprints. 35:00 A new YouGov Thanksgiving poll is out, and it’s serving up some surprising numbers along with the turkey. Most Americans are gearing up to spend the holiday with family — and most aren’t expecting a political brawl at the dinner table. But the real twist? Democrats are more than twice as likely as Republicans to brace for a fight. We break down what the data says about gratitude, identity, and why some families head into Thanksgiving ready to give thanks… while others show up ready for round one. 40:00 Senator Ruben Gallego of Arizona woke up to find some of his private texts leaked all over the place. And in those messages, he absolutely torched his own party, complaining that Democrats “don’t let men be men or women be hot,” before dropping the now-infamous line: Dem women look like dem men, and dem men look like women. Democrats are saying, "Whoa." 41:30 And we finish off with President Trump's pardon of the turkeys for Thanksgiving. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There a witty saying in America about a person being “born on third base and thinking they hit a triple.” That essentially refers to people who think they achieve amazing results when in fact they have been given starting-out privileges that are beyond the wildest dreams of two-thirds of the world's population. How should Christians think about that? And how about the Christian faith? Are we born into our families' faith…or must we be born-again as Jesus taught?

Every Saturday, we revisit a story from the archives. This originally aired on September 1, 2024. None of the dates, titles, or other references from that time have been changed. Sheikh Hasina has won a fourth straight term as Bangladesh’s prime minister. The daughter of the country’s founding father earned her own reputation as a pro-democracy leader. But in recent years she has been accused of cracking down on critics, with the opposition boycotting the 2024 elections and calling them a sham.

Bangladesh's former prime minister Sheikh Hasina has been found guilty of crimes against humanity and sentenced to death. A tribunal in Dhaka found she had ordered security forces to kill protesters during student-led anti-government demonstrations in 2024. The UN estimates up to 1,400 people died during the uprising, most by gunfire. Sheikh Hasina was tried in her absence and has been living in exile in India since being forced from power. She has dismissed the court's verdict as politically motivated. Also: a plea from the UN aid chief to stop the supply of weapons to the rival armies in Sudan. A BBC investigation has uncovered evidence raising doubts about the trial of US marines over the killings of Iraqi civilians in 2005.
