In this conversation, Luke Geraty and Dr. Chris Anthony delve into the themes of Danny Silk's "Culture of Honor," exploring its implications for church leadership, the fivefold ministry, and the current state of charismatic movements. They discuss the importance of mutual honor among church leaders, the need for safeguarding and accountability, and the influence of John Wimber and the Vineyard movement. The conversation emphasizes the necessity of nurturing a healthy church culture and the importance of remembering that the Church belongs to Jesus! Dr. Chris Anthony's research interest centres on the interactions between Christian theology and history within the last 200 years - especially relating to revival movements. Methodologically, Chris used historical contextualisation in order critically evaluate various movements within their own setting and then use their own sources as dialogue partners with a view to establishing structural theologies. His heart is to see the church fulfill the great commission and see believers be who they are called to be. In practice this means being an elder within an independent evangelical church, with an emphasis on outreach.

Aptera Motors is set to hit the gas in public markets with an expected IPO on Thursday. Ahead of the debut, co-CEO Chris Anthony talks about how the company is creating a solar-powered electric vehicle that doesn't need daily charging. When it comes to carving out a space in the EV space, he sees Aptera's car creating "a whole new category" for EVs with a reasonable price point. On the greater EV industry, Chris says the U.S. needs to lean more into the space and makes the argument that the more adoption expands, the more infrastructure will be built to support EVs.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

This approach helps keep landscapes healthy, reduces the risk of massive wildfires, and even revitalizes cultural practices. The conversation highlights the need to empower local communities in fire management, evolve the role of firefighters beyond just suppression, and overcome public fear and outdated regulations that hinder the adoption of these beneficial fire practices.

Welcome to the first episode in a three-part series about community wildfire resilience, sponsored by Fire Aside. This episode explores a number of big, meaty topics you've likely been hearing about in the wildfire space, from wildfire insurance to categorical exclusions to NEPA to wildfire resilience policy in the era of urban conflagrations like those in LA this winter. Our fearless leader on this journey is former CAL FIRE Chief Deputy Director Chris Anthony, who has worked with some major players in the wildfire space since retiring in 2023. His consultation clients have included entities in the nonprofit, academic, philanthropic, agency and private industry (including Fire Aside) spaces, while also serving as a board member for the Earth Fire Alliance and California Fire Safe Council.Chris has a deep understanding of wildfire resilience at both the landscape scale (think fuels management and big-picture restoration projects) as well as at the community scale (think home hardening, defensible space and how counties and cities engage with homeowners). This breadth of experience has made him instrumental in informing and advancing critical wildfire policy at the state level in California, while also getting involved in projects that leverage technology to help us better understand and mitigate risk to wildfire. After 30 years in CAL FIRE, his goals upon leaving the agency were simple: 1. Bring fire back to fire-adapted ecosystems.2. Build more understanding around what strategies and mitigative actions can meaningful reduce risk in communities.3. Develop and support policies that help us meet these two goals.4. Find innovators and technologies that can help scale up some of the critical actions we need to take to move the needle on fire resilience. We would like to extend a huge thank you to Fire Aside for sponsoring this series. Fire Aside is a home assessment platform that helps fire departments, conservation districts and other entities perform more thorough wildfire risk assessments, while also providing a platform for directly engaging homeowners in taking meaningful action to improve their resilience.
