It's easy to forget how something as simple as a pair of shoes can change a life. But for vulnerable children around the world, shoes mean protection, dignity, and the chance to dream.Today, we'll hear how Buckner Shoes for Orphan Souls is meeting this need with the love of Christ. Shawn Spurrier joins us to share the incredible impact that is being made all around the world, one pair of shoes at a time.Shawn Spurrier is the Director of Buckner Shoes for Orphan Souls at Buckner International, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. The Heart of Buckner InternationalFounded in Dallas, Texas, Buckner International has been serving vulnerable children, families, and seniors for more than 146 years. Their mission is clear: to follow the example of Jesus by serving the most vulnerable in every phase of life. From foster care and adoption to family-strengthening programs and senior care, Buckner demonstrates Christ's love in tangible ways.The Shoes for Orphan Souls initiative began 25 years ago in Dallas as a small effort to provide children in orphanages with something they lacked: their own pair of shoes. Many had to borrow communal shoes from a basket just to attend school.Since then, the ministry has distributed more than 5 million pairs of shoes in 86 countries. These shoes do more than protect feet—they open doors to health, education, dignity, and the hope of Christ.Why Shoes MatterA new pair of shoes provides more than comfort:Health Protection – In many regions, shoes prevent devastating illnesses like hookworm or podoconiosis.Access to Education – In many countries, schools require shoes as part of their uniform, making footwear a key factor in attending class.Economic Stability – Protecting children from illness reduces financial strain on families already in vulnerable situations.Hope and Dignity – Every pair is delivered with prayer, encouragement, and the gospel, often through partnerships with local churches.Stories of TransformationShawn shared two moving stories that reveal the ministry's impact:Romina in Mexico – A seven-year-old girl was overwhelmed with tears when she realized someone cared enough to give her a pair of shoes. That moment reminded Sean why this work matters—it's a tangible expression of Christ's love. Dulce in Guatemala – An eight-year-old girl received pink-and-white shoes so she could attend school. That simple gift opened the door for her family to receive housing, literacy training for her mother, and ultimately, salvation and discipleship for her father.A small act of generosity became the seed of a transformed family story.Your Opportunity to GiveThis month, we're partnering with Buckner to put shoes on the feet of 1,000 children worldwide. Each pair represents health, education, dignity, and an opportunity for children and families to hear the gospel.$15 provides a pair of shoes.$150 provides shoes for 10 children.You can be part of this life-changing work by visiting GiveShoesToday.org. Together, we can share the love of Christ one pair of shoes at a time.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm retiring and turning 65 in February. Right now, I'm covered by my employer's health insurance, but I'm running into issues with prescription coverage. Should I sign up for Medicare now, keep my employer insurance as primary, and then wait until my younger wife becomes eligible for Medicare?I've managed to pay off all my credit card debt, but now my mortgage company has started foreclosure proceedings. They're demanding $2,160, and I'm not sure how to handle it.

Since becoming president, most of the actions taken by President Trump have been anti-economic growth, and the US economy now is sputtering. Unfortunately, Trump seems to believe that a combination of trade restrictions and inflation is what the economy needs.Read the article here: https://mises.org/mises-wire/trump-digging-his-own-economic-graveThe Mises Institute is giving away 100,000 copies of Hayek for the 21st Century.

As grassroots "Block Everything" protests take place all across France, we examine the economic conditions that are partly fuelling the discontent.

Also in this edition: the immigration raid against a Hyundai plant in Georgia is ringing alarm bells among foreign businesses looking to invest in the US.

In this episode of Behind the Wealth, Roger Abel and Elias Randel answer two important listener questions that many people face when planning their financial future: Andy Asks: I just got a big promotion.

On Friday, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported that nonfarm payroll employment increased by 22,000 in August, while the unemployment rate rose from 4.2% to 4.3%. The healthcare sector accounted for roughly 31,000 new jobs, but declining employment in the federal government, manufacturing, and professional services offset some of those gains; the BLS also revised June's employment numbers down by 27,000 and July's numbers up by 6,000. Separately, on Tuesday, the BLS reported that the U.S. added 911,000 fewer jobs between March 2024 and March 2025 than previously estimated, adding to concerns about the health of the job market.

Marc Goldwein, Senior Vice President and Senior Policy Director for the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, breaks down two pressing economic issues. First, he explains why recent economic gains may be nothing more than a short-lived “sugar high” that doesn't signal long-term growth.

Michael Snyder writes a sobering article that our podcasting staff comments on.   A defiant, confident, and decidedly public display shocked diplomat and leader alike on September 3. “You don't need a degree in international affairs to understand the message Xi Jinping sent Wednesday as he paraded tanks, hypersonic missiles and other weapons through Beijing, putatively to honor the end of World War II,” warned the Wall Street Journal. The ominous point, according to the Journal? “Mr. Xi and his allies aspire to dethrone the U.S. as the world's premier power.

BOOK TITLE: The Decisive Decade: American Grand Strategy for Triumph over China AUTHOR: Jonathan DT Ward HEADLINE: The Second Great Divergence: Democracies vs. Dictatorships in the Economic Battleground Jonathan DT Ward introduces the "second great divergence" as an opportunity for democracies to economically surpass dictatorships like China and Russia. This involves seizing the Fourth Industrial Revolution and denying economic advantages to adversaries. China's economic strategies aim to achieve global preeminence, but the US and its allies can counter this by leveraging their collective economic power, rebuilding industrial bases, and competing effectively in the emerging world. 1922 EKING PSTUDENTS GOING ABROAD TO STUDY

Book Title: Wild Ride: A Short History of the Opening and Closing of the Chinese Economy Author: Anne Stevenson Yang Headline: Early Economic Opening and Author's Unexpected Role in Xian In 1994, Anne Stevenson Yang was invited to Xian, China, to represent a business council, unexpectedly finding herself the esteemed speaker at a trade show. This marked the "second decade of the Chinese miracle," a stark contrast to her 1985 experience as an editorialist at China Pictorial, where employees slept on desks in a profoundly non-capitalistic culture. 1942

Book Title: Wild Ride: A Short History of the Opening and Closing of the Chinese Economy Author: Anne Stevenson Yang Headline: Deng Xiaoping's Reforms and the Rise of Red Capitalism Following Mao Zedong's death, Deng Xiaoping initiated economic reforms in 1979, driven by the need for hard currency for international travel. His solution was to create hermetically sealed export zones, like Shenzhen, to attract foreign companies and currency. This "red capitalism" led to an elite class, where Deng Xiaoping's daughter and Jiang Zemin's son, Jiang Mianheng (Mr. 10%), secured money and political power, often by taking equity in new companies. 1954

Book Title: Wild Ride: A Short History of the Opening and Closing of the Chinese Economy Author: Anne Stevenson Yang Headline: Central Government Seeks Control Amid Economic Booms and Crises After the economy grew "out of control" in the 1980s, the central government, fearing a Soviet-style breakup, implemented "golden projects" for control over customs, taxes, and information. Following the 1998 Asian Financial Crisis, China recapitalized its banks by creating four asset management companies to buy bad assets, effectively injecting massive cash into the economy. This unleashed an explosion of wealth, shifting the Chinese people's aspirations toward getting rich. 1958

The U.S. job market is experiencing a significant slowdown, with only 22,000 jobs added in August, marking the first net job loss since December 2020. The unemployment rate has slightly increased to 4.3%, indicating a decline in hiring and job seeker enthusiasm. Despite these challenges, the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in the labor market is not leading to widespread job losses. A recent survey revealed that only 1% of service firms reported job cuts due to AI, while many companies are retraining existing employees instead of laying them off. The tech sector, however, is seeing a rise in job postings requiring AI skills, reflecting a shift in hiring practices.Small businesses are facing increasing challenges as confidence in their marketing efforts declines, despite higher investments. A report indicates that only 18% of small and mid-sized businesses are very confident in their marketing outcomes, down from 27% the previous year. Many businesses are turning to AI tools and email marketing, but they struggle with limited time for marketing activities. Economic pressures, including rising costs and tariffs, are also impacting operational strategies, leading to concerns about the effectiveness of marketing investments.Tariffs are causing disruptions in tech pricing and delaying PC upgrades, with the removal of the de minimis exemption leading to increased costs for imported goods. This has resulted in price hikes for various products, including luxury items and personal computers. Despite the impending end of support for Windows 10, many businesses are hesitant to upgrade to Windows 11, opting instead for extended support packages. The rise of AI-enabled personal computers is notable, but the associated costs due to tariffs are making these upgrades more challenging for businesses.Broadcom is consolidating its control over VMware, transitioning a significant portion of its customers to subscription-based services. This move is part of a broader strategy to enhance the VMware Cloud Foundation offerings. Meanwhile, a new integration between DarcyIQ and Kaseya Autotask aims to improve operational efficiency for managed service providers by streamlining ticket and project management through natural language conversations.

There was a famous effort at the beginning of the environmental extremist movement that said, “Oh, the spotted owl! We can't cut any more trees because of the spotted owl.” This was part of the weaponization of the Endangered Species Act.. And if people do care about CO₂ releases—when a forest burns, these are massive CO₂ releases. That's how you release CO₂ from a tree—you burn it. When you have a campfire, you're releasing that carbon. The fires in California have released more CO₂ than all of their so-called efforts to “control” CO₂.” Source: thegatewaypundit.com https://twitter.com/KobeissiLetter/status/1964483504198037657  result, the share of individuals unemployed for more than 27 weeks rose to 26.3%, the highest since February 2022. This marks a near 10 percentage point increase in just 20 months. It also means this percentage now higher than in all previous recessions, excluding 2020 and 2008. The US job market is declining.  .Deportations of undocumented immigrants under the Trump administration appear to be a contributing factor to this slowdown. Preliminary Census Bureau data shows a 1.2 million decline in immigrant workers from January through July 2025, driven by over 1,000 deportation flights (up 15% year-over-year) and policies removing work authorization for hundreds of thousands. This has hit industries reliant on immigrant labor hardest, such as construction (where 10 states with high concentrations of undocumented workers saw a 0.1% employment drop), agriculture, and hospitality, potentially risking billions in economic output. Economic analyses project that sustained mass deportations could lead to 5.9-6 million total job losses nationwide, including 2.6 million for US-born workers due to ripple effects like reduced consumer spending and supply chain disruptions—though some models suggest low-skilled authorized workers might see modest wage gains if deportations persist long-term. The White House frames this as "America First" progress, claiming it returns jobs to citizens, but broader data indicates the labor force contraction is exacerbating hiring stalls rather than alleviating them. Cuts to federal government jobs are also directly impacting overall employment figures. The Trump administration's hiring freeze (extended from January 2025) and voluntary buyouts have led to a net loss of 148,000-300,000 federal positions by late 2025, with August alone seeing a 15,

Britain has seen an influx of illegal immigrants from the Islamic Middle East, often without proper background checks. Scandals involving Pakistani immigrants grooming young girls went largely ignored by authorities due to fears of political backlash. Ordinary citizens face harassment for expressing patriotism, even as immigrant communities display cultural or political symbols freely.   Victor Davis Hanson explains that this crisis is part of a larger European problem, and how the social, demographic, and political pressures facing Britain and Europe threaten the stability of their nations on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “They've had a series of controversies and incidents and scandals in which Pakistani illegal immigrants have been grooming young British girls in the sex trades. And this was apparently known to authorities. But they felt that it was politically correct, in the age of DEI and woke, to seriously pursue any legal ramifications, until the public was outraged. “And this is in addition to the beginning of massive demonstrations, on the part of the British, Scottish, Irish, Welsh public, to perceived indifference from the United Kingdom Labour Party to the plight of their own citizens. In other words, they're censoring thought, dissent of British citizens, but not in the same manner they are of illegal aliens. And this translates into some very Orwellian and absurd incidents.”

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu! In today's special Q&A deep dive, Tom and co-host Drew respond directly to your hottest takes and burning questions inspired by their recent viral video, “The Things That Happened Right Before Collapse.” Together, they tackle wide-ranging topics—exploring America's mounting debt crisis, inflation, the struggle of average people to get ahead, and the growing wealth gap that's fueling frustration across the country. Tom delivers his famously unfiltered perspective on why the U.S. economy is in far deeper trouble than many people realize, challenging conventional wisdom about reserve currencies, military might, and the government's ability to ‘soft default' through inflation. He breaks down how these forces squeeze the middle class and details the predictable historical cycles—referencing everything from the fall of past empires to today's socioeconomic malaise. The conversation also dives into passionate debates from the comment section, from capitalism versus socialism to debt forgiveness, and practical advice for protecting yourself in uncertain times.
