Welcome to Gospel Rant, and our new series, Breaking Badly! Episode 8 – Gideon: Victory… and the Drift (Part 2) What happens when people who once knew God slowly forget Him? Not all at once.Not with open rebellion. But little compromises… quiet idols… and decisions that seem perfectly reasonable. Welcome to the world of Judges. The Book of Judges is the story of broken people, bad choices… and a God who refuses to walk away. Last time we met Gideon. A frightened man hiding in a winepress. A man who blamed God for Israel’s suffering. And yet a man whom God unexpectedly called a “mighty warrior.” Today we watch what happens next. And Gideon’s story becomes one of the most fascinating—and tragic—stories in the entire book of Judges. Because Gideon’s life unfolds in three stages. And those stages tell us something profound about the human heart. We will see what you think. And now, it’s your turn…
In this edition of Europe Rendezvous, we travel to Italy, one of the European Union's founding members, to examine how the country's democratic institutions have come under increasing pressure. It may be the season of la dolce vita, but life has been far from sweet for migrants, women seeking abortions in parts of Italy, and journalists facing growing political pressure on the media. Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni leads a coalition of conservatives and the far right, and as the 2027 elections approach, her government has been accused of seeking greater influence over the judiciary, the media and the electoral system.

Guest speaker, Pastor Robert M. Trice from Relevant Church in Grand Rapids, MI, kicked off our new "Summer Staycation" series with a powerful message on the importance of safeguarding yourself from compromise during seasons of relaxation.
In the final message of our Grow on Purpose series, Pastor Russ challenges our church with a powerful reminder from Hebrews: if we're not intentional, we will drift. In a world pulling us in every direction, we must stay anchored in Christ, press forward in our faith, and continue growing with purpose. Join us as we close this series by committing together to live intentionally for Jesus.
Episode 258 Rorke's Drift part two. It's important to listen to Episode 257 because that sets everything up for this episode - there's too much to repeat particularly in the layout of the buildings which were fully described in Episode 257. There were around 330 British and Natal Native Contingement troops marooned at Rorke's Drift, about to be attacked by 4000 Zulu warriors. Approaching rapidly, the reserve amabutho of the Zulu army, led by Prince Dabulamanzi - a man who was driven by pride and personal valor — loyal to his king and brave, yet impulsive compared with Cetshwayo kaMpande's politics of restraint. Dabulamanzi's name means the one who conquers waters, and most apt because he had decided to lead the warriors across the Mzinyathi River into Natal. A literal crossing and a metaphorical defiance. Zulu oral tradition refers to this battle as Shiyane by the way, or kwaJimu, Jims land after Jim Rorke who build the trading store. It was 4pm, January 22nd 1879. The barricades were still going up the drift, the sacks of mielies, the boxes of bully beef and biscuits, when Lieutenant Henderson and Hlubi Molife of the baTlokoa Native contingent rode up with 80 of their men. Lieutenant John Chard of the Royal Engineers who commanded the post realised they'd managed to make their own way across the Mzinyathi pontoon, and he asked the horsemen to reccie up the river beyond Shiyane mountain. If you remember, that was the high point immediately behind Rorke's Drifts two buildings, the house slash hospital, and the trading store, slash church, slash commissariat. Henderson offered to help defend the supply depot - a hollow offer as you'll hear shortly. Chard had been operating blindly since his observers had scurried back down the Shiyane after they realised three groups of Zulu regiments were approaching. Henderson took his mounted unit around the southern flank of the Shiyane where they could observe the territory from higher ground. Moments later scattered shots were heard, and Henderson and his unit galloped up and he shouted “Here they come, as black as hell and as thick as grass…” Henderson and another rider, Bob Hall, lingered for some moments beyond the orchard in front of Rorke's Drift, firing a few shots to the north, then turned and galloped away. They had survived Isandlwana and could not stomach further action. Chard was going to bump into these two later during the Anglo-Zulu war and they would apologize for fleeing and leaving the small group of defenders to fend for themselves. Watching from within the wall of boxes and bags were the Natal Native Contingent, and their commanders. Stevenson's men flung down the sacks they were using to construct the walls, and bolted through the barricades, following Henderson. Their white officers ran away as well, along with their NCOs, including Corporal Anderson. He was a Scandinavian who spoke very little English, and the sight of the men of the NNC he commanded running away, along with their supposed officers, panicked him and he ran off. Soldiers of Bravo Company left behind were enraged, several opened fire on the cowards fleeing the scene. Corporal Anderson was shot through the back of the head - killed instantly. It was another irony of South African history right there. The first man on the British side to die at Rorke's Drift was shot by his own side.

Rorke's Drift was a battle that Cetshwayo kaMpande did not want, because it took place on the western bank of the Mzinyathi or Buffalo River — inside Natal. The British had been routed at Isandlwana by the main Zulu army, regiments who's names are still venerated by oral historians today, the uKhandempemvu, uNokhenke, uDududu, iMbube, iSanqu, the uMbonambi, iNgobamakhosi. The men of the uThulwana, iNdlondlo, iNluyengwe, uDloko amabitho had headed northwest during the battle to cut off Chelmsford's escape route while the main army went to work evicerating Durnford's men. The commanders of the main army, Ntswingwayo kaMahole and Mavumengwana kaNdlela turned back to oNdini - realising that they had both good and bad news. The good news - Chelmsford's central column had been crushed at Isandlwana, the bad news - it had cost the Zulu main army dearly perhaps as many as 2000 warriors - along with number of his most venerated indunas and isinkhosi. But things were not over in this corner of the British empire, because the reserve amabutho were itching to wash their spears. They had chased Isandlwana fugitives to the Mzinyathi, spearing them and shooting them down, and now the uTHulwana, iNdlondlo, iNdluyengwe and uDloko were going to ignore Cetshwayo's orders and cross the river into Natal. The Zulu king had spelled out his orders and stipulated in no uncertain terms that his men were to stay on the Zululand side of the border. He believed that when it came to negotiate peace, the fact that his men had not crossed the border would be in the Zulu's favour. The Natal settlers and British bureaucrats had instigated this war out of fear of Zulu power. Cetshwayo understood that if he could demonstrate the Zulu Empire posed no real threat to British interests or colonial settlements, he might yet avoid total destruction. He grasped what many generals forget: war is fundamentally a political instrument. By confining all combat to Zulu territory—never crossing into British-held land—he could preserve the moral high ground. When the inevitable negotiations came, this restraint would be his strongest card, proof that the Zulus sought only to defend their sovereignty, not to conquer. It was this reserve force of between 3000 and 4000 men who were to throw a spanner in the works. They were on the move in three separate contingents, with the younger men from the iNdluyengwe in the lead, marching in open order in advance of the others. They pursued the fugitives across Sothondose's Drift, now renamed Fugitive's drift. The other two contingents began a few pre-battle moves, first dividing, then wheeling about, then reforming, an impressive display of commander control.Cetshwayo's aggressive half-brother Prince Dabulamanzi was in command of these reserve units. This was a break from decorum, because Dabulamanzi was not actually a general in Cetshwayo's army appointed by the king, but his royal status meant he dominated proceedings. The other offices of the reserve deferred decision-making to him, despite their disquiet which would grow to alarm later in our story today. Dabulamanzi was another of our interesting characters of South African history. He was notoriously unscrupulous, but quick of mind and flashing of eye, always taking great care in grooming his moustache and pointy beard. Settlers who knew him called him sophisticated, he dressed in fine European clothes, loved a gin and tonic, and was an extremely good shot with a rifle. Had he not been Zulu, you would have called him an excellent example of a well-rounded English rogue of the Victorian era. Prince Dabulamanzi wanted to give the men a victory - they could hardly return home and become the laughing stock of the nation. Zibhebhu's incapacitation provided him with a perfect moment. Later it was spun that this smallish group of reserve amabutho were actually on their way to Pietermarizburg and it was only the plucky Rorke's Drift defenders who stood in their way.

Happy Holidays- New episodes starting Jan. 5th Why did lions look so strange in medieval European art? What does this have to do with Native American folklore, eyewitness memory of a car accident, or what a person remembers 3 years after witnessing the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center? And what does any of this have to do with flashbulb memories, misinformation, and the telephone game that you played as a child? Join Eagleman for part 1 of an astonishing journey into what we believe about our memories.

We mend the broken by the interjection of our lives into the circumstances and situations of others, with care, gentleness and the right medicine to bring one back to life and health. When they proclaimed that it was the samaritan that was the true neighbor to the wounded man, Jesus replied, "then you go and do likewise". Nothing has changed, it is his will, his command and his expectation. Have you drifted? Are you spending your life on yourself or are you investing it in others.
The mandate of Christ to go into all the world means nothing to us or them if it is not the gospel of the bible. This glorious gospel is simple, exclusive and sufficient
Many believers have fallen into the trap of claiming a salvation, all the while ignoring the responsibilities of it. Yes, we are saved by grace through faith so that we might know God and love him forever; but he has sent us into the world just as he did his son - "To seek and to save that which is lost". How can they hear without a preacher, and how can one preach if he has not been sent! (hint: YOU HAVE BEEN SENT)
We, who are in Christ have all experienced the unintentional loss of ground, closeness, power and joy of living in and near Jesus. This is different than the rebellious heart, that is determined to have it's way, regardless of God's design or desire; in fact, it happens through the steady of current of the spirit of this age, pulling us away from the things and THE ONE that ultimately matters. But the scriptural cure is simple. Remember, Repent, Redo
Is your notion of yourself built on narrative that may or may not be accurate? If someone told you an entirely false story about yourself, could you come to believe it? What does that have to do with six people who spent over a decade in prison together for a crime they didn't commit? Join Eagleman for part 2 of some mind-blowing conclusions about your account of your own life.
Why did lions look so strange in medieval European art? What does this have to do with Native American folklore, eyewitness memory of a car accident, or what a person remembers 3 years after witnessing the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center? And what does any of this have to do with flashbulb memories, misinformation, and the telephone game that you played as a child? Join Eagleman for part 1 of an astonishing journey into what we believe about our memories.
We went back to Craig the Discord Bot and boy was it not the right move. I left the beginning where we synced up in so you know it was at least correct at first. It drifts over time, but not quite as bad as last time. We will definitely be doing something new for next time. The Summer Games Fest 2023 happened and we talk about all the hottest news before getting into the tons of stuff we've been playing like Street Fighter 6 and Diablo 4!

Commitment to a prayer life opens you up to the supernatural work that God can do in our lives when we believe for it. When our faith is connected to God's power, he can do miraculous things. God doesn't need our faith in him to be powerful, he is that all on his own. But we need our faith in him to experience that power. And he designed it that way so we would have a drawing and longing for our time in prayer with God! Listen in as we kick off our new series "Fighting Drift".
Welcome to Part 2 of The Compromised Drift. I decided to do part 2 because God brought me to a few different scriptures during my time with Him last weekend. If you missed Part 1, definitely go back and listen. A quick recap of last week's episode. God is showing me how so many Christians have drifted away from the WORD of God. People have drifted closer to the enemy than to God and it has happened like a drift.So the compromised drift means that the enemy has made you vulnerable and has unauthorized access to your soul and he has done this slowly and steadily that you didn't even realize it.Scriptures God took me to:2 Timothy 2: 22-25 Devils Trap2 Timothy 3: 1-9 Last Days2 Timothy 4: 1-4 Strange MythsJames 5: 19-20 - Restore Wandering BelieversEphesians 4: 11-16 Unity in the Body of ChristThis episode will help you to figure out how you can start chasing the right bag, which is what God created you. Grab your pen and journal and ENJOY!Stay Anchored with me on IG and dr_kerrie or YouTube at dr_kerrie.Love yall :)

In creation, God did the best work. And in creating man and woman the universe must have been in awe. This was creation that reflected the image of the God of the universe, incredible! This reflection God, His image, was set in the most ideal and perfect world. It was meant to provide the happiest and healthiest life. Now it makes sense, why the devil hates the family and the marriage relationship. Let's study together. Welcome to Campion.
