I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Friday morning, the 30th of May, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go to the Gospel of John 3:7. Jesus says, “Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.” I want to speak to you about starting the journey. The best way to start the journey is with Jesus Christ. He will not allow you to get lost. He will not take you on the wrong road. He will make sure that you get to your destination, and He will, most of all, help you to enjoy the journey. I always remember my late mom used to say when we went on holiday, “The best part of the holiday is the journey.” Isn't that true? Now folks, I want to tell you something. In 2014, CUM Books, which is Christian Art Publishers, Chris Johnson, a very dear brother of mine in Christ, we got together and he said to me, “Angus you are an evangelist. You get out there and preach the Gospel and you show people how to start the journey with Jesus, and we will supply a little book that we will give to every single convert or backslidden Christian as a gift from us." He has held to his promise, I am talking for 11 years! Now, if you are listening to this you probably know we have done some very big events, not just mighty men conferences, not just prayer meetings, but huge events in stadiums and Christian Art Publishers have been so faithful. Every time a person gives their life to Christ, they have an opportunity of getting one of these books for free. These wonderful people pay for the printing of that book.Now I picked up one of those books this morning,“Starting the Journey'. It says, “The most important decision that you can ever make”. I made it on 18th February, 1979. Oh, I will never forget it. We are talking on close to 50 years ago. I will never forget that decision. Now this little book will tell you how to start the journey and to go through this life. I would encourage you to get one of these books, but folks, I am going to pray for you because that is the purpose of Thought for the Day. Please pray this prayer after me:Dear Lord Jesus,I want to start the journey which will take me to Heaven. I ask you to forgive me for all my sinful ways and from today onwards, I promise to put You first in my life, and I thank You for walking this road, which is quite tough at times, Lord, for walking this road with me.In Jesus name, Amen.God bless you and keep on with the journey. Home time is sooner and closer than you think.Goodbye.

In this episode of The Timeout, Dwyane Wade, D Wright, Bob, and Chris Johnson dive into the Knicks-Pacers series. They stress the importance of the Knicks using their bench more, highlighting players like DiVincenzo and McBride for bringing energy and professionalism when given the chance. The Pacers’ tough defense and faster pace created problems for New York, but the Knicks showed grit and made key coaching adjustments to win Game 3. Turning to the West, the hosts discuss the Timberwolves-Thunder matchup. Minnesota’s dominant Game 3 performance caught their attention, especially Anthony Edwards’ leadership and fearless play, drawing comparisons to Kobe Bryant. Veteran players like Mike Conley and Rudy Gobert also stood out for their playoff experience and steady presence. The Thunder’s chances depend on containing Minnesota’s supporting players while relying on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander to perform at a high level.

In this episode of The Timeout, Dwyane Wade, D Wright, Bob, and Chris Johnson kick things off with Who Hooping, showing love to Julius Randle’s bully ball and Draymond’s lockdown defense. They talk about how Houston’s athleticism couldn’t rattle Golden State—and why playoff games are really won in the last five minutes. Ant-Man gets major praise for going chest-to-chest with LeBron—three straight possessions of raw physicality nobody’s seen before. The crew dives into how the refs are letting the players play and why stars like Ant thrive in this kind of game. In What’s Up?, they light up the Miami Heat, question Bam’s talk, and react to Tyler Herro’s “we won’t get swept” moment.

An Homage to the Great Donald Goines with the Death of Bobby Hart. Donald Goines was a literary movement in a genre aptly known as Street Literature and unfortunately was killed in 1974.

David brings this to life with the help of Dietrich Smith, Chris Johnson, and Chris Sotomayor. We speak on a time when Blaxploitation grew in popularity in cinema but it wasn't always as reserved and served in Literature as well. David tells in this book in the portrayal as Bobby although widely popular and creating close 6-7 books in one year was also addicted to heroin and how this may have caught up with him. As with Bobby Hart, Donald Goines company who published his books was called the Holloway House and brought not only Goines, but Iceberg Slim, and a consistent open door to black writers.Later in the Pod, we talk about the continuation of his most popular work Bitter Root that after 15 issues or 16 if you count Red Summer Special brings the Gang back together in Chuck Brown and Sanford Greene to produce Bitter Root the Next Movement for Image Comics. To which then David speaks on Ownership and something that is constantly lacking at Marvel and DC and the realization to continue to publish creator owned franchise IP's that he chooses to do and how to move.The Death of Bobby Hart is now Live on KickstarterSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-faqs-project-hosted-by-james-grandmaster-faqs-boyce/donations

Today's episode is brought to you by Children's HopeChest, an organization that's rethinking global missions in all the right ways.Here's what I love about their model: They don't just step into a community and create long-term dependency. They invest in local leaders, build sustainable plans, and have a clear exit strategy—empowering people rather than creating a system where they always need outside help. As a pastor, I spent a long time looking for a global mission partner that actually helps without hurting, and HopeChest checks all the right boxes.Global mission work isn't optional for the Church—it's part of our calling. So if your church doesn't have a solid global partner yet (or if you're looking for one that actually works), it's time to get in the game. How? Start with a vision trip. This summer, HopeChest is leading trips to Guatemala, Uganda, and Ethiopia—and you should go.Check them out and sign up at www.hopechest.org/lutheran.
