Watch or listen to Kim Phuc, known around the world as the girl in the 'Napalm Girl' photograph taken during the Vietnam War, being interviewed by veteran journalist Lorna Dueck. In this episode, Kim talks about the impact of being photographed after being caught in a Napalm bomb attack at the age of nine that left her terribly burned. After traversing a long and traumatic road to recovery, Kim discovered Scripture and found hope and healing. She is the founder of The KIM Foundation International, a nonprofit dedicated to providing funds to support the work of international organizations that provide free medical assistance to children who are victims of war, violence, and deprivation.Read the transcript: biblesociety.ca/transcript-scripture-untangled-s10-ep4---Learn more about the Canadian Bible Society: biblesociety.caHelp people hear God speak: biblesociety.ca/donateConnect with us on Instagram: @canadianbiblesocietyThe Bible Course offers a superb overview of the world's best-selling book. Watch the first session and learn more at biblecourse.ca. ---Kim Phuc Phan Thi is known around the world as “The Girl in the Picture.” In 1972, at  the age of 9, she was immortalized in a Pulitzer Prize-winning photograph that shows her screaming and running naked down a road in Trang Bang, Vietnam, after having her clothing burned off by napalm. A living symbol of the atrocity of war, she is the founder  of The KIM Foundation International, a nonprofit dedicated to providing funds to support the work of international organizations that provide free medical assistance to children who are victims of war, violence, and deprivation. Mrs. Phan Thi has suffered many hardships since that day in 1972 including several years of painful burn therapy, but her spirit has always remained strong. Inspired by the  physicians who helped her survive, she decided to become a doctor; but her pre medical studies in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) were interrupted in 1982 when the Vietnamese government removed her from school to act as a “national symbol of the war.” Four years later the government permitted her to continue her studies in Cuba, but health issues put an end to her plans to become a doctor. It was in Cuba that Mrs. Phan Thi met her husband, Toan. They married on September  11, 1992. While on the way back to Havana after their honeymoon in Moscow, the couple defected to Canada during a one-hour layover in Newfoundland, Canada. They now live near Toronto, and Mrs. Phan Thi travels the world as a UNESCO (United  Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) Goodwill Ambassador for the Culture of Peace. Kim Phuc Phan Thi has received seven honorary doctorate degrees from universities in Canada, Australia, the United States, and Mexico for her efforts to help children and end world conflict. She is an Honorary Member of Kingston Rotary, an Honorary  Member of St. Albert Rotary, a Member of the Advisory Board for the Wheelchair Foundation, an Honorary Member of the Canadian Commission for UNESCO, a Member of the Advisory Board of Free Children's Foundation in Canada, and the World  Children's Center in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. Mrs. Phan Thi is also a recipient of the  Queen's Golden Jubilee Medal, the 2004 "Order of Ontario,” as well as the International  Peace Prize presented in Dresden Germany, February 2019. Kim is the author of Fire Road, her personal memoir, which has been translated into ten languages.

Building Bridges: Finding Common Ground in Relational ApologeticsIn this episode of Simple Faith, host Rusty George discusses the vital role of finding common ground in a diverse world as part of relational apologetics. Key points include the significance of shared human longings, bridging cultural and political divides, and using pop culture references for meaningful discussions. Rusty emphasizes the importance of listening, understanding other perspectives, and sharing personal faith stories to create connections without compromising core Christian beliefs. The episode also touches on historical examples like St. Patrick's use of symbols to communicate the gospel and explores the balance needed to address theological differences respectfully.00:00 Introduction to Simple Faith00:36 The Importance of Finding Common Ground01:43 Shared Human Longings as Bridges05:30 The Role of Cultural References08:54 The Power of Personal Stories12:18 Understanding Other Perspectives14:33 Conclusion and Next Steps

In this episode, Heather addresses the theme of silence that many women experience due to past traumas, particularly in the context of narcissistic abuse. She emphasizes the importance of recognizing the lies that have shaped one's identity and the power of words in healing and destruction. Heather guides listeners through identifying these lies, replacing them with truth from scripture, and ultimately finding their voice and purpose. The conversation is a call to action for women to embrace their inner strength and share their stories. There is so much confusion in figuring out how to start your vision and what your step-by-step plans should be. But when you get clear on your message, by first healing and identifying these lies and deceptions that are keeping you in the dark.  All the right things won't work if we are still in the dark.  00:00 Uncovering the Silence Within 03:04 Understanding Narcissistic Abuse 06:12 The Power of Words and Healing 11:58 Identifying and Replacing Lies 18:14 Activating Your Roar 24:12 Finding Your Voice and Purpose PS.

Have you ever thought about becoming a brand expert for C. S. Lewis or J. R. R. Tolkien? On the one hand, these seem like authors who need no introduction. On the other hand, how many people today really know the work of these towering 20th Century authors, beyond what made its way onto the silver screen? And what about one of the authors closely associated with them – Dorothy Sayers – who is far from well known in the general public but whose work is of similar creative and literary quality with her more famous friends and interlocutors?Maybe you haven't ever thought about launching a public relations campaign for one of these authors for the sake of a modern audience of young adults, but my guest today has. She is Christie Kleinmann, Professor of Public Relations at Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee. Professor Kleinmann is one of a dozen fellows in our second annual cohort of the Inklings Project, run out of the McGrath Institute for Church Life. Along with the other eleven fellows who come from colleges and universities across the United States and in four foreign countries, Professor Kleinmann developed and offered a new course this spring that draws the work of the Inklings into her own area of expertise: strategic public relations. The students in her course were divided into three semester-long groups, which each took as their “clients” one of these three Inklings: Lewis, Tolkien, and Sayers. Today, Professor Kleinmann joins me to talk about the project of her course, the relevance of the Inklings, and the creativity of her students.This is the first of a two-episode set. The second episode will feature three of Professor Kleinmann's students, one from each of the three Inklings groups. Follow-up Resources:Learn more about The Inklings Project.

Embracing Success Beyond Social Media: A Faith-Focused Journey to Becoming a Published Author With so much focus on social media, it can be hard for anyone striving to become a published author not to feel the pressure to build a massive following. One might think it's necessary to be seen as successful. However, true success comes from following God's plan and staying rooted in your values. Becoming a published author doesn't have to revolve around likes, followers, or algorithms. Redefining Success to Become a Published Author It's easy to look at people who have achieved literary success and focus on where they are now—published, celebrated, and recognized. But what you don't often see is the long, unseen journey it took for them to become a published author. That journey looks different for everyone, beginning with defining success on your terms - not the world's terms. You can view success through three lenses: ours, God's, and the world's. Are you writing simply for personal ambition? Are you chasing worldly approval—fame, money, social media validation? Or are you seeking to become a published author in alignment with God's unique plan for your life? The world often tells us success means going viral, having a curated life online, or selling millions of copies. But God's definition of success is grounded in faithfulness, obedience, and impact—sometimes unseen but always meaningful. About Allie Marie Allie Marie's passion is helping people, especially girls and women, live flourishing lives, know their God-given worth, identity, and purpose, and experience vibrant wellness in body, mind, and spirit.  As a teen girl and young woman, Allie battled severe depression and even tried to end her life.
