Join our hosts for Wednesday's show where we will be discussing: ‘Faith and Football' and ‘Human Sacrifice: Commanded by God?' Faith and Football: This World Cup shows striking moments of faith on the field, from players praying together after matches to public expressions of gratitude. But why does faith appear so powerfully in football? And why do fans often treat the game itself with almost religious devotion? Join us as we explore how football reveals a deeper human search: for identity, comfort, community and meaning. Human Sacrifice: Commanded by God? Human sacrifice was practised by many ancient civilisations, often in the name of religion. But was it truly commanded by God, or was it shaped by human beliefs, traditions, and even political motives? Join us as we delve into the history of human sacrifice, and how the true concept of sacrifice is one of faith, obedience, and devotion. Guests: Josh Smith: Josh Smith is the West Midlands Development Manager with The Feast. Samuel Okafor: Samuel Okafor who is the Chief Executive of the Kick It Out organization. Keith Mabbutt: Keith Mabbutt is the Founder & CEO of the Street Soccer Foundation Dr Jack Lennon: Associate Professor of Ancient History, University of Leicester UK.

The Cutting Edge Japan Business Show By Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
Leaders receive automatic compliance from their title, but they do not receive earned trust by command. Position power may get people to follow instructions, laugh at the boss's jokes, and say "yes," but it will not create deep commitment, innovation, or discretionary effort. In Japan, Australia, the United States, Europe, and across Asia-Pacific, leaders in multinationals, SMEs, startups, and family businesses face the same problem. They confuse authority with trust. The team may obey, but obedience is not the same as willing cooperation. Real trust is built through consistent communication, proper delegation, follow-through, and time spent understanding people. What is the difference between automatic trust and earned trust? Automatic trust comes from position power, but earned trust comes from repeated behaviour that proves the leader is reliable. A title can force compliance, but it cannot command genuine commitment. Automatic trust is the basic respect given to the role. People follow the reporting line, attend meetings, and respond to instructions because the leader has authority. Earned trust is different. It is based on the reality of daily interactions: whether the leader listens, explains decisions, follows through, keeps promises, and treats people fairly. In Japanese organisations, where hierarchy and seniority can be powerful, the gap between obedience and trust can be especially easy to miss. Do now: Ask whether your team is following you because they trust you, or because your title requires it. Why does trust affect delegation and time management? Trust affects delegation because leaders who do not trust their team keep too much work on their own shoulders.That destroys both people development and executive time management. When leaders fear that others will make mistakes, miss deadlines, or mishandle responsibility, they avoid delegating. The result is a double loss. First, team members lose the chance to grow through accountability and higher-level tasks. Second, the leader becomes trapped in low-value and medium-value work instead of focusing on strategic priorities. This pattern appears in corporate Japan, regional offices, startups, and global firms alike. Poor delegation is not just a workload issue; it is a trust issue. Do now: Identify one task you are holding because of low trust, then decide what support would make delegation possible. How does earned trust increase discretionary effort? Earned trust increases discretionary effort because people are more willing to go beyond the minimum when they believe in the leader. Trust turns paid labour into deeper commitment. Discretionary effort is the jewel every leader wants. It shows up when people innovate, create, think ahead, take ownership, and step up without being forced. Employees are paid for their work, but extra commitment cannot be bought by salary alone. It is released through trust. When trust levels are high, people bring more energy, ideas, and resilience. When trust is low, they do only what is necessary and protect themselves from risk. Do now: Build the conditions where people want to contribute more, rather than merely comply. How do leaders accidentally destroy trust? Leaders destroy trust when their words, reactions, and follow-through do not match what they claim to value.Trust is built slowly but can fall through the floor in one bad interaction. A leader may lose their temper, lash out, dismiss a suggestion, promise action and then do nothing, or say one thing while doing another. Each moment withdraws from the trust account. When a team member offers an idea and the boss reacts harshly, that person's "innovation ticket" is cancelled. Others notice too. In Japanese workplaces, where people may already be cautious about speaking up, one poor reaction can silence future input for a long time. Do now: Treat every reaction to bad news, ideas, or mistakes as a deposit or withdrawal from trust. What kind of communication actually builds trust? Trust-building communication explains the why, listens seriously, asks for input, and goes beyond telling people what to do. Talking a lot is not the same as communicating well. Many leaders believe they communicate because they issue instructions, chair meetings, and give updates. That is not enough. Communication that builds trust requires time and curiosity. Leaders need to explain the purpose behind decisions, listen to concerns, seek ideas beyond their own experience, and understand what motivates each person. This takes longer than command-and-control leadership, but it creates stronger alignment. For Japanese teams, global project groups, and cross-cultural organisations, explaining the "why" is especially important because assumptions may differ. Do now: Replace one directive conversation with a "why, input, and listen" conversation this week. How should leaders delegate to build trust? Leaders should delegate by matching tasks to the person's development path, not by dumping unwanted work.Proper delegation is a trust-building conversation. Delegation fails when it feels like a hospital pass: bothersome, unpleasant, and pushed downward because the boss is too busy. Professional delegation is different. The leader explains the value of the task, connects it to the person's career growth, asks them to create the plan, agrees on milestones, and monitors execution without micromanaging. This approach builds accountability, confidence, and capability. It also frees the leader to focus on higher-level work only they can do. Do now: Before delegating, explain how the task helps the person grow, then let them shape the plan. Final summary Trust cannot be commanded by title, hierarchy, or authority. It is earned through repeated communication, proper delegation, consistency, and genuine consideration for the team. Leaders who do not trust their people fail to delegate. Because they fail to delegate, they lose the time needed to communicate properly. Because they do not communicate properly, they fail to build trust. That loop must be broken deliberately. The price of earned trust is time and consideration. Leaders who truly value their people must move them higher on the priority list and prove it through consistent action. Quick actions for leaders Understand the difference between position power and earned trust. Delegate properly by linking tasks to development. Check whether you are truly communicating or just issuing instructions. Make time to understand what inspires, interests, worries, and motivates your team. Follow through consistently so trust grows over time.

Crewing the Expedition and Erroneous Science. Guest Author: Hampton Sides. The mission involved two ships: the Resolution and the Discovery. Key officers included Charles Clerke, who commanded the Discovery while suffering from tuberculosis, and James King, a talented astronomer whom Cook mentored. Also on board were John Gore, an American-born veteran, and William Bligh, a brilliant but "insufferable" navigator who learned his craft directly from Cook. The voyage was partly motivated by the "open sea" theory of Daines Barrington, which falsely suggested that seawater could not freeze and that a path to the Northwest Passage would be ice-free if sailors stayed away from land. This wrongheaded science fueled the British Empire's obsession with finding a shorter route to Asia. 21784
Next to Acts 10, 1 Timothy 4 is the most popular Bible verse used in attempt to nullify the dietary law in Leviticus and Deuteronomy. Do modern preachers interpret it correctly though?
Verse by verse study through the book of Acts Chapter Ten and Verse Forty Eight
Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob. (Psalms 44:4) ~~~~ This sermon was preached at Swavesey Particular Baptist Chapel on Tuesday Evening. ~~~~ *1/ The Churches profession - "Thou art my King, O God:" 2/ For whom deliverance is sought - "For Jacob." 3/ The Churches petition - "Command deliverances for Jacob"* **Sermon Summary:** The sermon explores Psalm 44:4, emphasizing the believer's profession that God is King and their petition for Him to command deliverances. It contrasts the ideal of Israel with the reality of Jacob, illustrating how God provides salvation and guidance even when His people feel weak or discouraged. The preacher argues that divine deliverance is rarely instantaneous but follows a sovereign, strategic plan involving trials, refinement, and grace. Using examples from Gideon, Paul, and the Exodus, the text demonstrates that God orchestrates every step of a believer's journey to ensure ultimate victory and spiritual growth. The central message encourages trust in God's supreme authority and wise ordering of all circumstances for the good of His people.

Ephesians Series: Ephesians 5:17b-The Believer is Commanded to Conduct Their Life as a Wise Individual-Lesson # 355
This last chapter in Deuteronomy both points us to the faithfulness of Moses but also to the One more faithful than Moses (Hebrews 3:1-6). While Moses died on the mountain having not seen the promised land, Jesus died and yet lives to bring His people with Him to eternal life.
Matthew 28:18-20 (NKJV) And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “ALL AUTHORITY has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and MAKE DISCIPLES of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, TEACHING THEM to observe all things that I HAVE COMMANDED you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen. As a disciple of Jesus, for us to be effective, we've got to acknowledge GOD-ORDAINED AUTHORITY REQUIRES RESPONSIBILITY. In other words, when we fail to exercise our God-ordained authority, we basically limit God's predestined plan.

In Season 15 episode 2, Elixir Wizards Sundi Myint and Charles Suggs chat with Micah Cooper to talk about distributed systems, data replication, and what it actually looks like to build these ideas in Elixir. Micah shares his journey from Ruby to Elixir and walks us through Visor, a library he's building based on the Viewstamps replication algorithm. Inspired by systems like TigerBeetle, Visor explores how you can replicate state across nodes using GenServers, giving you fault tolerance and recovery without relying entirely on traditional database patterns. We talk about the difference between distributed systems and data replication, where things tend to get misunderstood, and what changes when you start thinking about state this way. The conversation also touches on event sourcing, tradeoffs in system design, and how Elixir's distributed model makes some of these concepts more approachable than you might expect. Along the way, we talk about building for curiosity, experimenting with new ideas, and how projects like this push the ecosystem forward. Topics discussed in this episode: Building Visor and working with the Viewstamps replication model Replicating GenServer state across nodes Distributed systems vs. data replication Lessons from TigerBeetle and financial system design Event sourcing challenges and tradeoffs Rethinking database-first architectures Snapshotting, recovery, and fault tolerance The role of Elixir's distributed model Experimentation, learning, and building for curiosity Links mentioned: Micah's GitHub https://github.com/mrmicahcooper Micah's GitLab https://gitlab.com/mrmicahcooper The Visor repository: https://gitlab.com/mrmicahcooper/visor Visor Hex Package https://hex.pm/packages/visor Ruby on Rails https://rubyonrails.org/ Phoenix LiveView Framework https://www.phoenixframework.org/ Zig Programming Language https://ziglang.org/ TigerBeetle https://tigerbeetle.com/ TigerBeetle internal docs https://github.com/tigerbeetle/tigerbeetle/tree/main/docs/internals The BEAM https://www.erlang-solutions.com/blog/the-beam-erlangs-virtual-machine/ GenServer https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/GenServer.html Apache Kafka https://github.com/apache/kafka RabbitMQ https://www.rabbitmq.com/ Redpanda https://www.redpanda.com/ SQL https://www.ibm.com/think/topics/structured-query-language Kubernetes https://kubernetes.io/ YAML https://yaml.org/ Nomad Workload Orchestrator https://developer.hashicorp.com/nomad Flutter https://flutter.dev/ Commanded https://hexdocs.pm/commanded/Commanded.html Go Programming Language https://go.dev/ Clojure Programming Language https://clojure.org/ Nebulex https://hexdocs.pm/nebulex/Nebulex.html Mnesia https://www.erlang.org/doc/apps/mnesia/mnesia.html Cachex https://hexdocs.pm/cachex/Cachex.html libgraph https://hexdocs.pm/libgraph/Graph.html Horde https://hexdocs.pm/horde/Horde.Registry.html NocFree split keyboard https://www.nocfree.com/ Micah's LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/micah-cooper-4a737560/

The USS Jeannette expedition (1879–1881) is remembered as one of the most tragic and compelling stories in maritime history, blending ambition, endurance, and survival against the odds. Financed by James Gordon Bennett Jr. and undertaken by the United States Navy, the expedition aimed to reach the North Pole via the Bering Strait in search of the theorized open polar sea. Commanded by George Washington De Long, a crew of 33 men departed San Francisco in 1879, only to become trapped in Arctic pack ice shortly after entering the polar region. For nearly two years, the Jeannette drifted helplessly across the frozen expanse before being crushed by ice in 1881, leaving the crew stranded on the drifting floes of the East Siberian Sea. What followed was a harrowing struggle for survival, as the men attempted to reach Siberia in three small boat parties after becoming separated in a violent storm. Ultimately, only 13 survived, while De Long and many others perished in the unforgiving Siberian wilderness. The historical record was preserved through De Long's recovered logbooks, and this story of polar exploration, shipwreck, and human endurance offers an exhaustive account of one of history's most ill-fated Arctic expeditions. Much of the research for this 2-part series comes from George De Long's extensive records.

We're continuing our visit with pastor, teacher, author, and theologian Dr. William R. Downing. But, as he's been sharing, his life didn't start out that way. In fact, he loved the great outdoors, and studying ancient languages; searching the Scriptures was not in his plans - a marvelous example of how the Lord can redirect our lives for His purposes!

Messianic Apologetics editor John McKee reviews the extremely difficult topic of genocide, seemingly commanded by God, within the Torah. How is any Bible reader to best sort through this matter? This is then followed by a review of important stories and issues from the past day or so, largely witnessed on social media.
"And you shall command ..." the week's Torah portion starts. Commands, vows, and promises powerfully elevate ideas by eliminating alternative options. A thing is the only thing we may do, or must not do. Beyond his - as God did with Moses this week – He also chooses to put us as humans into positions in which we must issue commands, and make or stand by promises or vows. We explore this way of God communicating with us in Torah Portion, "Tetzaveh."

In God's original design, we were made to work with God and rest in God. But in a fallen world, and in our fallen condition, our relationship to both is broken. We mismanage our emotions, mismanage our relationships, mismanage our time, because we've mismanaged our relationship to Him. Exodus 20:1-11
You Are Commanded to Be Hospitable Men Who Entertain Angels Part 2 Episode Summary Hospitality is not optional. It is commanded. In Part 2 of Men Who Entertain Angels, Pastor Joseph Spurgeon moves from definition to duty. This episode walks through the Ten Commandments, the case laws of the Old Testament, and the witness of Scripture to show that hospitality is not softness. It is strength under authority. Biblical hospitality is not lawless kindness. It is ordered love. It welcomes, provides, and protects under the rule of God. It does not celebrate sin. It does not surrender truth. And it does not abandon responsibility. This episode exposes the modern counterfeit. A version of hospitality that tolerates evil, rejects authority, and calls compromise compassion. That is not biblical. That is rebellion dressed up as virtue. Instead, men are called to lead. To open their homes with discernment. To protect what is under their roof. To provide for those in need. To uphold truth while extending mercy. Hospitality flows from obedience. It requires backbone. It requires clarity. It requires men. If you want to understand how God commands hospitality and how to actually practice it, this episode lays it out.

Maritime historian Chris Sams joins me to discuss the Battle of Jutland. Fought from 31 May to 1 June 1916 in the North Sea, it was the largest naval engagement of the First World War and the only full-scale clash between Britain's Royal Navy Grand Fleet and Germany's High Seas Fleet. Commanded by Admirals Sir John Jellicoe and Sir David Beatty for Britain and Vice Admiral Reinhard Scheer and Admiral Franz von Hipper for Germany, the battle unfolded through a series of dramatic encounters involving battlecruisers and dreadnought battleships.

Confidence doesn't get you moving. Courage does. Confident women don't start being confident. They start wobbly, unsure, and a little sweaty. They take the next right step anyway. Over time, they build a history of bravery. A stack of real-life evidence that whispers, I survived that uncomfortable thing. I can do the next one too. And that evidence, not a quote or a pep talk, is what finally grows confidence that lasts.

GENERAL SPAATZ AND THE ETHICS OF BOMBING Colleague Evan Thomas. The conversation turns to General Carl "Tooey" Spaatz, who commanded the air war in the Pacific and demanded written orders before dropping the atomic bomb. Unlike the pragmatic Curtis LeMay, Spaatz was a proponent of precision bombing and was deeply troubled by the killing of civilians. The segment recounts the execution of the atomic missions, noting that while the Hiroshima drop went smoothly, the Nagasaki mission flown by Charles Sweeney was "snake bit," plagued by fuel issues and cloud cover that nearly caused the mission to fail.
