Michele is an avid learner and her deep curiosity has led her into many creative opportunities for giving. Through BraveWorks and Restoration Residences, Michele has impacted the lives of many trafficked, abused, and incarcerated women, as well as helped families in need transition out of homelessness. A self-identified connector and advocate, Michele is highly integrated in the generosity community and has a passion for helping others give well and invest with a generous heart.    Major Topics Include: Finding creative opportunities to give Stories of serving and empowering women through BraveWorks Being a generous connector Committing to community in the generosity space Approaching investing from a heart of generosity  Stewarding investment and philanthropy dollars Practical advice to get started in impact investing Navigating various levels of engagement and responsibility in generosity Encouragement for women to engage in the generosity community Trusting God in the messiness of generosity  Hearing from God in stewardship decision-making Quotes to Remember “I felt like I had basically lived my life ignoring the plight of the suffering.” “It's so important for us to become proximate to people who have different lived experiences than we do.” “Whether it's somewhere across the world or across town, we can have really transformative experiences, even in our own community, but we have to be willing to be uncomfortable and humble and put on a willingness to learn from others.”  “A lot of times, I had no intentions of starting anything. I just took the next step that the Lord showed me.” “There's something that's healing when you recognize the struggle people have been through.” “It's really inspiring to be in these spaces where people do have resources but they're taking the humble perspective of ‘I've been entrusted with this, I really want to honor God.'” “If I wasn't in this space where I was continually being challenged, I think it would be easy to just fall into the culture and the ways of the world.” “Too often, we only focus on our philanthropy and we don't think about what we're doing with our investment dollars, and oftentimes, the investment dollars are undoing the very things that we're trying to do with our philanthropy. God calls us to steward all of what He's entrusted to us in a way that honors Him.” Links from the Show BraveWorks (formerly Fashion and Compassion) Restoration Residences Cru Compassion International ALARM – African Leadership and Reconciliation Ministries Julie Wilson, President of Women Doing Well (see our past interview here) Generous Giving (see our interviews with cofounders Todd Harper and David Wills and CEO, April Chapman) Faith Driven Entrepreneur  Faith Driven Investor Faith Driven Foundation Course Praxis Praxis Capital Fellowship The Gathering Stewards Not Owners by Dana and Bill Wichterman (see our past interview here) Impact Foundation (see our interview with Founder, Aimee Minnich) The Table (via Impact Foundation) National Christian Foundation (see our interview with President Emeritus, David Wills) Infinite Giving The Finish Line Community Facebook Group The Finish Line Community LinkedIn Group We Want to Hear from You!

Send us a textIn this Tech Tuesday episode, Dr. Donna Brezinski, founder and CEO of Little Sparrows Technologies, joins the show to talk about the BiliHut — a portable, high-intensity phototherapy device designed to treat neonatal jaundice with both clinical effectiveness and practical usability in mind.A neonatologist by training, Dr. Brezinski explains how her clinical experiences led to the development of the BiliHut, which delivers uniform phototherapy across the baby's body while solving key issues like positioning errors, thermal regulation, and access for breastfeeding. Unlike traditional overhead lights or fiber-optic pads, the BiliHut is engineered for both hospital and home use, with versions adaptable to low-resource settings and unreliable power grids.The conversation covers the physics behind its design, recent clinical data on treatment time, and deployment strategies from rural U.S. areas to clinics in Mongolia and Burundi. Dr. Brezinski also outlines how clinicians and families in the U.S. can access the device through durable medical equipment providers, visiting nurse agencies, or hospital DME programs.More information about the BiliHut and its availability can be found at littlesparrowstech.com.

Shane Claiborne's deepest conviction is that we are meant to live ‘as if Jesus meant the things he said'. So for him that has meant living in community in inner-city Philadelphia for a few decades now, having picked up some lessons from a stint working under Mother Teresa in Calcutta. His activism has involved confronting various systemic injustices and speaking up for and standing alongside those whose voices aren't being heard. It's a powerful and challenging podcast.Watch this episode on our YouTube Channel: https://youtu.be/LinAnXuxyNoCheck out shaneclaiborne.com and redletterchristians.org ---

Über die Hilfe der Caritas Österreich in dem ostafrikanischen Staat und warum Ziegen dabei essentiell sind.

Have you ever considered that the life God has prepared for you might be far greater than anything you've imagined? That His plan for you might stretch beyond the edges of your current understanding, experience, or even desire? Scripture says: "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor has entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him." (1 Corinthians 2:9) Today, I share a story from Burundi, Africa—where we visited a remote mountain tribe called the Twa. They lived in grass huts with no electricity, no access to the outside world, no understanding of life beyond survival. We brought them goats and chickens—a gift that felt like a luxury SUV to them. When I tried to explain life in Manhattan—living in towers, riding elevators—they looked at me with confusion and even pity. The tribal chief said, "We'll pray for you. We wouldn't want to live like that." Why? Because it was beyond their frame of reference. They couldn't conceive of it—so they rejected it. And we do the same thing with God. When the Holy Spirit tries to speak to us about His calling, His promises, His purpose, we often respond with, "That's too far. That's not for me." We limit the Holy One of Israel. We live at the border of unbelief—not because God's plans aren't real, but because we can't picture ourselves stepping into them. Friend, ask the Holy Spirit today to enlarge your vision. Let Him take you farther than your skill set, your past, or your pain have ever allowed you to imagine. Let's stop saying, "Not me. Not here. Not now." And instead start praying: "God, expand my understanding. Take me farther. Do through me what only You can do."

Donna spent 25 years in various countries in Asia, including warzones. Her stories of listening to the ‘inner voice' of God to guide and draw people into His Kingdom are beautiful, instructive and challenging to us in how we seek to share our faith. “God, what do you want me to know in this situation” is a simple (and profound) prayer, whether being held at gunpoint in the extreme, or whenever fear creeps into our day-to-day activities. It's a great episode! ▶️ Watch it on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/OJzGMrdyw2cDonna and husband Jamie founded www.identityexchange.com and I can't recommend it highly enough in helping us to live fearlessly out of our true identity.

John is a fearless follower of Jesus who gets bombarded daily with death threats from across the world for his outspoken witness for Christ. His back story was that he had misgivings with the faith of his birth when on pilgrimage from Yemen to Mecca, Saudi Arabia. As a disillusioned but spiritually searching agnostic, his convoluted travels led him to meeting a Syrian refugee in Greece with a tattooed cross on his wrist. That launched him on a journey to passionate faith in Christ, not as a prophet but as his Lord and Saviour. John's meteoric rise as an influencer on social media has led thousands of Muslims around the world to encounter and embrace a personal living relationship with Jesus. His straight-talking boldness and courage are a real challenge to Western Christians lacking in gospel confidence.Watch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/CS7UiKZOBlUCheck out and contact John through johnghanim.comInstagram: @johnghanim | Tiktok: @johnghanim0 | youtube.com/@johnghanim0 Visit here to support John's ministry.---

Ces dernières semaines, la politique de Donald Trump a eu des impacts majeurs sur la RDC, tant sur le plan économie avec la fin de l'USAID - Kinshasa était le premier pays francophone d'Afrique récipiendaire de cette aide – que sur le plan sécuritaire et politique. La République démocratique du Congo (RDC) et le Rwanda ont signé un accord de paix avec l'ambition déclarée de mettre fin au conflit dans l'Est de la RDC, le 27 juin à Washington, sous l'égide des États-Unis. Une diplomatie très active donc. Et sa première actrice sur le terrain à Kinshasa, l'ambassadrice Lucy Tamlyn, fait le point sur ces sujets avec Charlotte Cosset. RFI : Les États-Unis ont démantelé l'USAID. La fin de cette aide est un coup dur pour les ONG. À quoi va ressembler désormais l'aide américaine en RDC ? L'important, c'est que l'assistance américaine ne s'arrête pas. Elle est maintenant coordonnée par le département d'État. Et cette transition structurelle permet une meilleure cohérence entre la diplomatie et l'assistance. Évidemment, sur le terrain, il y avait des ajustements, mais nos programmes de santé et de réponse aux urgences se poursuivent. Ce sont des domaines prioritaires dans notre engagement bilatéral et nous restons le plus grand bailleur en RDC. Est-ce que vous sauriez, après ces réajustements, nous dire à combien s'élève l'aide américaine ? Ce que je peux dire, c'est que les États-Unis restent engagés à soutenir la santé, y compris la réponse pour les personnes vivant avec le VIH-Sida et les réponses d'urgence là où les besoins sont les plus urgents et où se trouvent les plus vulnérables. Je ne peux pas donner un chiffre exact, évidemment, c'est moins qu'auparavant et nous sommes aussi en train de faire une évaluation de l'assistance. Donc, ça va être plus clair dans les mois à venir, quelles seront les formes et les montants de l'assistance. Fin juin toujours, madame l'Ambassadrice, s'est tenue en Angola, le sommet États-Unis Afrique. Que faut-il en retenir ? C'était une grande réussite. Presque 2,5 milliards de dollars en nouveaux accords et engagements qui ont été annoncés. C'est aussi une opportunité pour expliquer que nous donnons la priorité aux échanges commerciaux plutôt qu'à l'aide et tout en encourageant les partenariats pour stimuler une croissance fondée sur l'investissement. Je peux ajouter aussi qu'il y a eu la réunion de cinq présidents africains à la Maison Blanche. Cet événement se veut le premier d'une série de discussions continues que nous voulons entamer avec les dirigeants africains. Et cela veut dire que c'est vraiment le début d'un engagement beaucoup plus étroit qu'auparavant. Parmi les questions abordées en Angola, celle du corridor de Lobito, qui est stratégique pour la RDC, cette voie ferrée qui relie déjà en partie la façade maritime de l'Angola aux zones minières en RDC de Kolwezi. Quels sont les engagements financiers américains dans ce domaine et dans quel but ? Les États-Unis investissent dans ce corridor parce qu'il représente un levier de transformation économique. Bien sûr, il y a des bénéfices pour nos deux pays. Le projet de Lobito, concrètement, on en est où côté congolais ? Nous sommes en pleine discussion avec le gouvernement pour connaître leurs intentions. Il s'agit de trouver une forme de concession qui va être attirante pour le secteur privé. Parce que ce qui est différent par rapport à ce corridor, c'est que le financement va directement au secteur privé. Ce n'est pas de gouvernement à gouvernement. On serait plutôt sur l'option de la réhabilitation de la voie existante ou sur le projet de construction du nouveau tronçon qui avait été envisagé ? À ce stade, c'est plutôt la réhabilitation du tronçon existant. Nous sommes vraiment dans les étapes préliminaires, mais nous sommes très étroitement liés avec l'Union européenne. L'Union européenne est très impliquée. Lobito, c'est un projet très stratégique. Il doit permettre l'exportation des minerais des régions enclavées de la RDC vers l'Angola. Et en avril, par ailleurs, lors de la visite de Massad Boulos à Kinshasa, le président Tshisekedi a annoncé l'existence d'un accord minier entre la RDC et les États-Unis. Est-ce que vous pouvez nous en dire un peu plus ? Quels sont les minerais congolais les plus stratégiques pour le marché américain ? Il y en a plusieurs, mais évidemment, le cobalt et le cuivre sont importants pour toutes les économies industrialisées. On parle du lithium également ? Oui le lithium aussi. Ce que je peux dire par rapport à cet accord minier, c'est plutôt qu'il s'agit de plusieurs accords. Ce sont des accords qui visent à améliorer le climat des affaires. Parce que même s'il y a une ouverture claire pour les sociétés occidentales, l'expérience ici montre qu'il y avait des obstacles pour l'investissement. Donc, ce que nous cherchons à faire, c'est d'améliorer le climat des affaires en travaillant étroitement avec le gouvernement, avec les institutions. Et ça va donner le feu vert pour les sociétés américaines de venir ici investir. Donald Trump a obtenu un premier accord entre Kinshasa et Kigali pour faire cesser le conflit à l'Est. C'est sans précédent. Comment la diplomatie américaine est-elle parvenue à un tel résultat ? Après trente ans de conflit, il est vraiment temps que la souffrance cesse et que la souveraineté et l'intégrité territoriale congolaise soient respectées. Donc, voici pourquoi les États-Unis ont insisté pour que cet accord de paix vienne avec un calendrier, un plan et des témoins. Le processus de mise en œuvre a bel et bien commencé avec la création d'un mécanisme de sécurité conjoint entre la RDC et le Rwanda. Et ce mécanisme coordonne la neutralisation des FDLR et le retrait progressif des troupes rwandaises. C'est un accord réaliste fondé sur des engagements réciproques. Et je voulais aussi dire que cet accord est différent, car nous avons clairement dit qu'il y aurait des conséquences si les engagements ne sont pas respectés. Cet accord a aussi de nouveaux aspects. En plus des engagements sécuritaires, il fournit l'incitation d'un cadre d'intégration économique régionale. Vous parlez de conséquences. Quel type de conséquences ? Les conséquences peuvent être les mesures punitives, par exemple les sanctions ou les autres leviers diplomatiques. Un exemple des aspects positifs des propos incitatifs : il y a un projet hydroélectrique de 760 millions de dollars qui reliera le Burundi, le Rwanda et la RDC. C'est un projet qui existe depuis longtemps, pas encore mis en œuvre, qui a juste besoin de la paix pour démarrer. Et donc ça, c'est un projet sur lequel vous êtes prêt à investir, si l'accord tient ? Une société américaine fait partie de ce projet, il y a plusieurs pays, plusieurs sociétés. C'est un projet assez complexe qui lie les trois pays. Et ça dépend du mécanisme qui va (met en oeuvre) l'accord des trois pays. (C'est un exemple) de l'importance d'arriver à une paix durable qui va permettre la confiance nécessaire entre ces trois pays, et donner le feu vert pour que ce projet puisse commencer. Vous l'avez dit, le suivi de la mise en œuvre de cet accord va être crucial. Jusqu'où les États-Unis sont prêts à s'impliquer dans ce suivi ? En fait, les États-Unis font partie, comme observateurs, du mécanisme de coordination sécuritaire et aussi du mécanisme de suivi. Et ce comité, qui inclut aussi le Qatar et Togo, assure un accompagnement constant de la mise en œuvre. Dans le cadre de cet accord. Une nouvelle rencontre est prévue prochainement à Washington avec les trois présidents. Que faut-il en attendre ?

Today, on Karl and Crew, we kicked off our weekly theme, 'Rock Solid,' by discussing the importance of applying the Word to our lives. As followers of Christ, it's essential to read the Word, but we also have to take those words off the page and bring them to action. In a further discussion of the Bible, we were joined by Dr. Timothy Paul Jones to explore the legitimacy of the Word and how we know it's the truth. Dr. Jones serves as Vice President for Doctoral Studies and as Chair of the Department of Apologetics, Ethics, and Philosophy at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. He also serves as one of the pastors at Sojourn Church Midtown in Louisville. He also cohosts an apologetics podcast called The Apologetics Podcast. We then turned to the phone lines to hear how our listeners apply the truth of the Word to their daily lives. Then we had Simon Guillebaud join us to discuss his ministry in Burundi, East Africa, and the importance of a God-serving community in fostering spiritual growth. Simon is the Founder and International Director of Great Lakes Outreach, which works for the spiritual and physical development of the people of Burundi. He also partners with local Christian organizations to share the Word of God through sustainable projects. Simon has authored several books, including "Choose Life-365 Readings for Radical Disciples." He has also hosted the podcast "Inspired," which regularly tops the UK Christian podcast charts.

While visiting friends in Uruguay, British teacher Tom Michell saw a penguin covered in oil and tar on a beach. Tom cleaned the bird as best he could and then tried to release it. The penguin refused to return to the wild, it just followed Tom around. So he took it home, smuggling the animal across the border into Argentina where he lived and worked at a boarding school. The penguin became a part of his life, and the school's life - with a remarkable influence on everyone who came into contact with it.Later Tom entertained his children, friends and family with tales of the penguin. He put those stories into a bestselling book, The Penguin Lessons, now the subject of a film starring British comedian Steve Coogan.Lives Less Ordinary is a podcast from the BBC World Service that brings you the most incredible true stories from around the world.

Eddie Lyle's stories of unsung heroes of the faith in the persecuted church throughout the world blew my mind, and will humble, challenge, and stir you in equal measure. For example, he tells of the extremist's machete falling, but stopping inches from the believer's neck as light flooded the room and the gang fell to their knees and then ran away. That's just for starters! I love Open Doors and their ministry.

Today, on Karl and Crew, we wrapped up our weekly theme of “Fathers in the Bible” by discussing the greatest father of all, God. We turned to Luke 15:11-24 to analyze the parable of the Prodigal Son, as it relates to the rejoice and warm embrace our Heavenly Father has waiting for us whenever we come to Him. Our Heavenly Father wants an intimate and devoted relationship with us all, but we have to cast away the things of the world and submit to Him as the Prodigal son did when returning to his father. We also heard from Anne Graham Lotz, who shared her memorable moments with her Dad, Billy Graham, before his passing. Anne is known for her deep biblical wisdom, as she speaks globally and was called “the best preacher in the family” by her late father. We also had Karl pop in from Burundi, East Africa, to provide us with an update on what’s going on there. Then we heard a testimony from one of the listeners in the Boom Crew, Josiah.

It's Friday, June 6th, A.D. 2025. 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 Nigerian Muslims killed 9 Christians On June 1st and 2nd, Fulani Muslim herdsmen killed at least nine Christians in Plateau State, Nigeria, following the slaughter of 27 others days before, reports Morning Star News. The attacks took place in Bokkos County in predominantly Christian communities. Emmanuel Auta, a local resident, said, “Christians [are] being butchered.” Another resident, Lilian Madaki, said, “Among some of the Christian victims that I know is a 14-year-old Christian teenager who was shot and wounded and is currently being treated at a hospital.” And, in a text to Christian Daily International, Yakubu Kefas wrote,  “The attackers, who we believe are Fulani terrorists, are carrying out indiscriminate shootings, killings, and large-scale arson, resulting in widespread terror, Christian casualties, and destruction of property.” Please pray for our suffering brothers and sisters in Christ in Plateau State, Nigeria. Proverbs 21:15 says, “When justice is done, it brings joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers.” Trump bans new visas for foreign nationals from 12 countries On June 4, President Donald Trump issued a full suspension on new visas for foreign nationals from a dozen countries applying for entry to the United States and a partial suspension on nationals from another seven, reports TheEpochTimes.com. The proclamation is set to go into effect at 12:01 a.m. ET on June 9. A full suspension will go into effect for nationals from Afghanistan, Burma, Chad, the Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen. A partial suspension will affect nationals from Burundi, Cuba, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan, and Venezuela. This executive action comes after the Secretary of State and assistant to the president on Homeland Security filed a report on April 9 identifying countries with such deficient vetting and screening information that a full or partial suspension of entry for their nationals was warranted. ‘60 Minutes' anchor Scott Pelley ripped for "angry, unhinged" speech criticizing Trump Outraged critics blasted longtime CBS “60 Minutes” anchor Scott Pelley as “angry” and “unhinged” after he delivered a fear-baced tirade against President Donald Trump during a commencement speech in North Carolina, reports the New York Post. The CBS newscaster warned Wake Forest University's graduating class on May 19 that “insidious fear” has infiltrated schools, businesses, and homes across the nation — leaving America in a state of “peril.” Listen. PELLEY:  “In this moment, our sacred rule of law is under attack. Journalism is under attack. Universities are under attack. Freedom of speech is under attack, and insidious fear is reaching through our schools, our businesses, our homes.” Scott Jennings, the conservative commentator on CNN, called Pelley out for such a ridiculous statement. JENNINGS: “On the free speech issue, I don't know what America Scott Pelley is living in. We have more speech now than ever. There is no problem with free speech in America. What we do have a problem with are people who don't speak truthfully, who are interested more in narratives than truth, and who are using what used to be journalism for activism. We do have a problem with that.” Jennings asserted that 60 Minutes on CBS is a platform that is more interested in a leftist narrative than the truth. JENNINGS: “If you've watched 60 Minutes for five minutes over the last several years, you would know it's not fair. This is one of the shows, this is one of the outlets that conservatives would point to most often to say: ‘This is the state of American journalism. It's only here to try to hurt Republicans, hurt conservatives, hurt Donald Trump.'” Painting of Jesus returned to prominent location at naval academy U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy has announced that he is restoring an historic painting of Jesus Christ to its place of prominence at the Merchant Marine Academy in Kings Point, New York, after it had been taken down by Biden-era officials, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Known as “Christ on the water,” the painting depicts Jesus walking on the water in stormy seas toward merchant seamen adrift in a lifeboat, presumably after being torpedoed.  DUFFY: “We are moving Jesus out of the basement. To all the great midshipmen at the Merchant Marine Academy, you let me know how important this painting was to all of you. Now, we all know it was taken out of a place of prominence and put it down in the basement. “I worked with the Academy, and because this is such a historic painting, I'm announcing that through that work with the Academy, this painting is going to go from the basement back to its place of prominence. It'll be a moment to celebrate.” It was painted by Lieutenant Hunter Wood in 1944 as a tribute to all merchant seamen who had been torpedoed during World War II. Actor Kevin Sorbo champions U.S. Christian heritage in new movie In the new docudrama called The American Miracle, historian Paul Kengor, one of 14 historians, captures how pivotal the Declaration of Independence and the subsequent American Revolution was for the world. KENGOR: “America in 1776: This is a watershed event in history. If you were to pick something over the last 450 years, four and a half centuries or so, that truly transformed humanity and the full scope of history, it was 1776.” The American Miracle movie will hit 1,000 screens across America on three days only – Monday, June 9th, Tuesday, June 10th, and Wednesday, June 11th. The actor who plays Benjamin Franklin – Barry Stevens -- is spot on in terms of appearance and disposition alike. FRANKLIN: “We have been assured, sir, in the sacred writings, that except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it.” Kevin Sorbo, who portrays the younger Thomas Jefferson, is an enthusiastic advocate that Americans know their own history. SORBO: “I think there's not enough history being taught in America anymore. I think people forget about what our Founding Fathers did for this country. Documentaries like this, I think, can help heal a nation, as corny as that sounds. I really do think it's important to learn history.” And Pastor Darnell Harper of New Covenant Temple, who screened The American Miracle before its June 9th national release, was amazed to witness God's divine intervention in America. HARPER: “I went to history class. I did not learn that God was in the middle of everything that was going on with the birth of our nation, the Constitution, and it just showed the handiwork of God and how God was establishing the United States of America.” Acts 17:26 says, “From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole Earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands.” Go to https://americanmiraclemovie.com/, watch the trailer, click on the Tickets tab, and type in your zipcode to purchase tickets at a movie theater near you to see it on June 9, 10 or 11.
