Podcast appearances and mentions of Bear Witness

Ali Velshi is taking over The 11th Hour on MS Now. After six years on Velshi, he gives a final word on the vitally important role of journalists bearing witness to the people.

"You shall be my witnesses"  Jesus - book of ActsWitnessing to Jesus sounds good, at least at first.  But many of us have bad experiences with people who do witness either in our lives and on our screens.Yet we are not given permission to abandon this task of witnessing to Jesus.  What might this look like?  Pastor Rob focuses on the hands that Jesus raises to bless his disciples at his ascension.  These hands of blessing bear witness to the cross but also the ultimate reign of God.

Rev. Meagan Kroeker | Classice Service | Revelation 11:1-141 I was given a reed like a measuring rod and was told, “Go and measure the temple of God and the altar, with its worshipers. 2 But exclude the outer court; do not measure it, because it has been given to the Gentiles. They will trample on the holy city for 42 months. 3 And I will appoint my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth.” 4 They are “the two olive trees” and the two lampstands, and “they stand before the Lord of the earth.”[a] 5 If anyone tries to harm them, fire comes from their mouths and devours their enemies. This is how anyone who wants to harm them must die. 6 They have power to shut up the heavens so that it will not rain during the time they are prophesying; and they have power to turn the waters into blood and to strike the earth with every kind of plague as often as they want.7 Now when they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up from the Abyss will attack them, and overpower and kill them. 8 Their bodies will lie in the public square of the great city—which is figuratively called Sodom and Egypt—where also their Lord was crucified. 9 For three and a half days some from every people, tribe, language and nation will gaze on their bodies and refuse them burial. 10 The inhabitants of the earth will gloat over them and will celebrate by sending each other gifts, because these two prophets had tormented those who live on the earth.11 But after the three and a half days the breath[b] of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet, and terror struck those who saw them. 12 Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here.” And they went up to heaven in a cloud, while their enemies looked on.13 At that very hour there was a severe earthquake and a tenth of the city collapsed. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the survivors were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.14 The second woe has passed; the third woe is coming soon.

John 5:31-47

The Lord Jesus Christ is clearly revealed, but not automatically received. 

Honduras' entrenched corruption, pervasive violence, narcotics flows, and weakened democracy continue to drive migration north and have consequences far beyond its borders. Amid these pressures, brave Christian civic leaders are stepping forward to uphold justice in a climate of impunity and inspiring others around the world to seek justice in their own contexts.Our discussion with reporter Ross Halperin,  Co-founder of ASJ-Honduras, Dr. Kurt Ver Beek, and director of criminal justice at the Niskanen Center Greg Newburn, examined how faithful Christian leadership can make accountability, rule of law, and democracy possible.Support the show

Ever notice how we can gush about a great meal or a new show, yet freeze when it's time to talk about Jesus? We open that tension with a straight path forward: boldness doesn't start with a megaphone, it starts with presence. Walking through Acts 4, we sit with Peter and John as they heal a man, face arrest, and announce the line that still shakes timid hearts today: we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard.We share how this kind of courage grows from a simple, repeatable rhythm: Seek Him Speak Him. That means leaning into Scripture with practical prompts, lingering long enough to hear God's voice, and letting that overflow spill into natural conversations with the people entrusted to us. You'll hear why boldness is leadership, not loudness, and how everyday discipleship can move from forced to fluent. We also tackle common barriers—fear of awkwardness, not knowing enough, or worrying about pushback—and offer clear steps that make faith talk feel honest and inviting.Along the way, we connect key passages like Psalm 107:2 and 1 John 1:3, show how presence produces clarity, and how clarity makes courage reasonable. You'll leave with language you can use today, from simple questions that turn reading into dialogue to ideas for sharing your story with a child, spouse, friend, or neighbor. Ready to be known for time with Jesus and to make Him known in your world? Press play, try the companion conversation guide, and tell us who you'll speak with this week.

Sharing a vivid story from her residency, Dr. Ofri discusses why mistakes happen, the difference between guilt which drives improvement, and shame which paralyzes, and the power of genuine apologies. Ideal for physicians grappling with perfectionism, this conversation offers strategies for self-compassion, seeking mentors, and creating systems that support clinicians, helping you continue caring without being crushed by uncertainty.Three Actionable Takeaways:Distinguish Guilt from Shame: Guilt focuses on the error and motivates change e.g., "I forgot the long-acting insulin, next time I'll double-check protocols". Shame attacks your identity "I'm a bad doctor". Dr. Ofri advises recognizing this to avoid paralysis; practice by journaling an error's facts versus your emotional narrative, then discuss with a trusted colleague to reframe it productively.Bear Witness to Suffering: For patients and peers, simply listening and acknowledging pain builds trust, whether it's a patient's chronic illness story or a colleague's post-error distress. Try this: Next time a teammate struggles, offer a quick check-in like "Need a coffee break?" to foster community and remind them they're valued beyond one mistake.Deliver Genuine Apologies: Avoid passive language; own your role actively e.g., "I'm sorry my oversight contributed to this outcome, I've been reflecting deeply and changing my process". Patients value transparency and prevention steps; role-play with a mentor before tough talks to ensure honesty while consulting risk management for legal guidance.About the Show:Succeed In Medicine covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more.

“We must bear witness to what we have seen and now about our Savior.” -Acts 10:34-43

In a culture driven by "my truth," as well as the church often saying, "What this means to me," Jesus came into this world to bear witness to the truth. Listen and hear how the gospel shapes how we define and interpret truth.

Message from Nathan Knight on November 30, 2025

On today's episode, we're talking with investigative journalist Ross Halperin about his new book Bear Witness: The Pursuit of Justice in a Violent Land. Ross takes us on a fascinating journey from academic research on impunity—the unsolved homicides plaguing American cities—to Honduras, where he discovers an unexpected solution. We dig into why the US solve rate for murders hovers around 60% compared to over 90% in other wealthy democracies, and spoiler alert: it's not about more surveillance or militarization. The real issue is witness testimony, and that requires trust. Ross introduces us to Kurt and Carlos, whose charity work proves that community trust, built through years of genuine service and investment, is the key to bridging the gap between communities and law enforcement. We talk about how faith animates their work without being preachy, the humility required to stay open to criticism, and why top-down solutions often miss what actually moves people to speak up. It's a conversation about what it means to bear witness—not just to tell a story, but to show up and be trusted. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube Ross Halperin is an investigative journalist and author of Bear Witness: The Pursuit of Justice in a Violent Land. A Harvard University graduate, he worked on Wall Street before transitioning to research on criminal justice, where he worked under Mark A.R. Kleiman, one of the world's leading criminal-justice scholars. His interest in unsolved homicides and systemic violence grew from this research, which revealed that the United States has dramatically lower murder solve rates than comparable wealthy democracies. That research led Halperin to a presentation by Kurt Biehl at a summit organized by criminologist David Kennedy, sparking a years-long investigation into how one community in Central America tackled violence through trust-building and faith. Bear Witness is the result of his embedded reporting in Honduras, exploring how real change happens not through top-down mandates, but through patient commitment to community relationships. Halperin's own commitment to community building is evident in his work closer to home as well—he led a campaign to reconstruct the library in his hometown, reflecting his belief in the power of institutions and gathering spaces. ⁠UPCOMING ONLINE ADVENT CLASS w/ Diana Butler Bass⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join us for a transformative four-week Advent journey exploring how the four gospels speak their own revolutionary word against empire—both in their ancient context under Roman occupation and for our contemporary world shaped by capitalism, militarism, and nationalism.  This course invites you into an alternative calendar and rhythm.

In this episode of In Her Words, Jess explores the deep, sometimes misunderstood concept of bearing witness—what it means, why it matters, and how it sits at the very heart of memoir. She explains that witnessing is more than simply remembering; it's the act of honoring your own experience, holding space for your truth, and affirming that what you lived through matters and is worth telling.Jess breaks down five reasons bearing witness is essential for memoir writers:It reveals what your story is really about—how you felt and what it meant.It restores your dignity and integrity by reminding you that you are more than what happened to you.It helps you navigate emotional landmines with clarity and care.It creates the intimacy readers crave and connects them to your emotional world.It transforms your story into a gift rather than a confession—turning pain into meaningful purpose.Jess also shares practical prompts to help writers cultivate witnessing in their writing process, offering gentle guidance on how to honor your story without becoming overwhelmed by it.Ultimately, this episode reminds us that memoir is not just writing—it's connection, courage, and healing, for both author and reader.This podcast is hosted by Jessica Buchanan, a NYT Bestselling author, speaker, survivor and founder of Soul Speak Press.

In this sermon on Luke 21, Leigh reflects on a missed moment in a New York taxi and how Jesus prepares His followers for times of pressure. The temple's purpose is fulfilled in Christ, and every believer, from the early martyrs to ordinary Christians today, is called to pay attention to the moments when the Holy Spirit prompts us to speak.These “micro-amphitheaters” show up in everyday life: a comment at a bridge table, a joke on the golf course, a choice at home or at work. Jesus promises that when those moments come, the Spirit will give us what we need. Our part is to live each day rooted in grace so that bearing witness becomes second nature.

Send us a textJoin Cheryl Lee - That Radio Chick on STILL ROCKIN' IT for news, reviews, music and interviews with some of our favourite Australian musiciansThe moment the walk-on music hits, you can feel it—the pulse of a country learning to believe in its own sound. We sat with Kate Ceberano to trace how that pulse became a life: from Melbourne's alternative scene and a pivotal “no” to Stock Aitken Waterman, to I'm Talking, Brave, Jesus Christ Superstar, and a 60th birthday tour that plays like a living mixtape of Australian music history.Kate brings the stories behind the headlines into sharp focus. She remembers the studio accident that turned into Models anthems, the sunburnt crush of Australian Made crowds, and the stubborn ingenuity of recording Bear Witness on early digital tech with real-time fixes from London. She talks about craft as a calling and a strategy—why songwriting keeps artists afloat, how Pash grew from one perfect memory, and what it means to watch an audience run a thousand private films to the same song. There's reverence for lineage—Mahalia Barnes seeking her blessing, Michael Paynter's vocal fire, and the responsibility of honoring a role like Mary Magdalene—and clear-eyed pride in firsts like the Order of Australia and induction into the Australian Songwriters Hall of Fame.The conversation also moves into the art of surviving between spotlights. When COVID stopped the wheels, Kate launched Friday streams to raise money for Support Act, painted guitars to keep crews paid, and spent years creating a hand-stitched quilt with master quilters in the Philippines and local artisans—a psychedelic ode to Australian flora that travels as the band's fourth member. We talk bikes, festivals, and a tiny scoop, but the heart of it is simple: authorship over shortcuts, community over ego, and music as the time capsule that binds us to who we were and who we're becoming.If you love Australian music, creative resilience, and stories that make your chest ache with recognition, press play and ride with us. Then share it with a friend, and drop a review with the Kate track that shaped your life.What has Kate Ceberano been up to lately?  Let's find out!Get out when you can, support local music and I'll see you down the front!!Visit: ThatRadioChick.com.au

When Paul planted the church in Corinth, his method was simple — preach Christ and Him crucified. Paul was able to clearly and courageously call people to repent and align themselves with the true King, Jesus, and the church in Corinth was born. Our job as witnesses today is the same — preach Christ and Him crucified with courage and clarity. And while courage comes with time, clarity takes effort. Most of us have an incomplete gospel story. We tend to emphasize one part over another, and often miss out on the depth and complexity of what salvation really is. To become effective witnesses who clearly and courageously preach the gospel, we must learn the full gospel story: Jesus has come to rule and reign over the world through His death and resurrection, and anyone can live in the Kingdom here on earth and into eternity if they repent from their sins and align themselves with Him.

Dom Vincent | Bearing Witness to the Light in an Age of Darkness (the Gospel of John) | July 6, 2025

Ross Halperin talks about his new book. A high-octane true-crime story, Bear Witness follows two Christians who refuse to let fear or conventional wisdom stand in the way of their altruistic mission.

In this sermon from Rev. Benjamin Kandt, part of NewCity Orlando's Preach Your Heart Out series, we are invited to reflect on the profound mercy and patience of God shown in the life of the Apostle Paul. Preaching from 1 Timothy 1:12–17, Rev. Kandt highlights Paul's personal testimony as a model of God's transforming grace. Once a persecutor of the church, Paul becomes a prime example of someone radically changed by the gospel—demonstrating that no one is beyond the reach of Christ's love.Rev. Kandt explores how this passage stirs us to humility and gratitude, reminding us that the Christian life is not grounded in merit but in mercy. Paul's response—worshiping God as King eternal—becomes a call for us to do the same: to live lives shaped by grace and to proclaim that same grace to a world in need of redemption. This message is both deeply personal and widely applicable, encouraging listeners to anchor their confidence in the unshakable faithfulness of God.

True Crime Tuesday Presents: Bear Witness: The Pursuit Of Justice In A Violent Land with Journalist/ Author, Ross Halperin! As young men, Kurt Ver Beek, an American sociologist, and Carlos Hernández, a Honduran schoolteacher, devoted their lives to helping the poor. But it wasn't until they moved to Nueva Suyapa— an extraordinarily dangerous neighborhood in the Honduran capital of Tegucigalpa—that they came to a radical conclusion: The charity world was combating poverty incorrectly. In gripping prose, journalist Ross Halperin chronicles how these two best friends became quasi vigilantes and charged into a series of life-and-death battles through their grassroots organization, The Association for a More Just Society (ASJ): first with the gang that terrorized their community, then with a notorious tycoon who commanded about a thousand-armed men, and finally with a police force whose corruption and brutality defied credulity. Their efforts made some of the most violent neighborhoods on earth safer and arguably improved the functioning of a national government, but in the process of pulling that off, they compromised their principles, precipitated collateral damage, and acquired their share of outraged critics. On today's program, we talk with Ross about how a program like ASJ could work in the inner cities here in America, how it was offered to Chicago almost two decades ago, the positives of community involvement and how much quicker things could get done, and the drawbacks that the American justice system could provide considering the success that ASJ had was in a third world country....

Today we will remember together the incredible calling and identity that we have as God's “witnesses” to this broken and hurting world. And it's more than just about telling people about God, in fact, I don't know if that was ever really the plan…God‘s presence with us and in us, has always been the plan. And because this is experiential and transformational, we end up bearing witness to the beautiful, personally nuanced, “withness” of God…the One who knows us and loves us …right in the middle of our mundane! I'll talk to you soon.- ChristyListen Fly the Nest Song (Carry You)Follow Christy on Socials: WebsiteFacebook Twitter Instagram TikTok
