What does it mean to stay at the table when disagreement, division, and distrust seem to be everywhere? In this episode, talks with Rev. Terri Hord Owens, General Minister and President of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), about her book Staying at the Table: Being the Church We Say We Are. Drawing on her experience as a denominational leader, pastor, and former corporate executive, Hord Owens reflects on the spiritual practices, theological commitments, and communal habits needed to sustain Christian unity in a polarized age. The conversation explores why staying at the table is both difficult and necessary, how churches can balance accountability with radical welcome, and why biblical literacy and spiritual formation remain essential for Christian witness. Hord Owens argues that churches often become more committed to preserving institutions than embodying the gospel, and she challenges Christians to recover a deeper commitment to love, humility, and community. They also discuss denominational identity, the future of small churches, the role of data in understanding ministry realities, and how congregations can create space for people who are searching for a faith community after leaving more rigid religious environments. Together they explore: What it means to "stay at the table" amid disagreement When unity is possible—and when leaving may be necessary Why spiritual practices and biblical literacy matter The tension between loving institutions and loving the gospel Welcoming people who are deconstructing or leaving other traditions Small churches, bivocational ministry, and denominational realities Rev. Teresa “Terri” Hord Owens is the General Minister and President of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in the United States and Canada. She is the first person of color and second woman to lead the denomination, and the first woman of African descent to lead a mainline denomination. Elected in 2017, Rev. Hord Owens was re-elected to a second term as General Minister and President in 2023. Her ministry actively reflects the Disciples' priority of being an anti-racist church, being a movement for wholeness, welcoming all to the Lord's table as God has welcomed us. Her exhortation to the church is “Let's be the church we say we are. It is in being who we say we are that we actively bear witness to God's limitless love for all.” Rev. Hord Owens earned her bachelor's degree from Harvard University and her MDiv from the University of Chicago Divinity School, where she subsequently served as Dean of Students for 12 years. Rev. Hord Owens' resume includes more than 20 years of leadership in corporate America leading diverse teams in data management. She serves on the National Council of Churches as the Vice Chair of the Governing Board and is a member of the World Council of Churches Central Committee. Rev. Hord Owens is married to Walter Owens, Jr. They are the proud parents of an adult son, W. Mitchell Owens, III and daughter-in-law Adriana Owens. She is also the joyful grandmother of Zachary Owens.

Clare County Council has scrapped two of the most controversial elements of the Ennis 2040 Strategy from the County Development Plan. Proposals to build a boardwalk over the Ennis Post Office Field and a mixed-use commercial building at Abbey Street had been the subject of large local protests since 2023. The projects were officially paused by the Ennis 2040 DAC last year, before a proposed variation to the County Development Plan in March suggested removing them altogether. Elected representatives yesterday today voted in favour of the variation, which will also designate 250 sites and 1,200 acres for residential use countywide. Cora Hahessy from Save Ennis Town and Martin Vernon, Chairperson of the 'Hands Off Ennis Post Office Field' campaign, spoke to Alan Morrissey about the scrapping of these plans.

The Local Government Minister says most councils will be affected by the Government's overhaul of committee voting rights. A Bill amendment will strip voting rights from unelected members —including iwi and youth representatives— on council committees. Simon Watts told Heather du Plessis-Allan he's open to further changes down the track, but acknowledges some unelected members still bring value to local decision-making. He says there are emergency management committees that have specific expertise, for example. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Labour is labelling the Government's overhaul of council voting rights a distraction. A Bill amendment will strip voting rights from unelected members —including iwi and youth representatives— on council committees. It comes after the Far North District Council moved to expand its Māori liaison committee. Labour's Ginny Andersen told Heather du Plessis-Allan the issue is not a priority for New Zealanders. She says people are far more worried about paying their bills and being able to cope everyday. National's Mark Mitchell disagrees, saying that stance shows how out of touch Labour really is. He told du Plessis-Allan that most Kiwis are pretty proud of our democracy, and he doesn't think they want unelected people going onto committees and making decisions. Mitchell says it's always prudent to have unelected people with special skillsets and backgrounds advising, but not voting, and he thinks most Kiwis would agree.

When we think about threats to democracy, we often imagine dramatic breakdowns—military coups, constitutional crises, or sudden collapses. But today, a common danger is slower and less visible: democratic erosion driven by elected leaders themselves. Across different regions, presidents and prime ministers are weakening institutions, undermining accountability, and reshaping the rules of the game from within. Why is this happening now, and why do voters sometimes tolerate it? In this episode, CEDAR host Temitayo Odeyemi speaks with Susan Stokes about her article in the Journal of Democracy, “Why Elected Leaders Subvert Democracy,” and what it reveals about the changing nature of democratic backsliding in the twenty-first century. Drawing on this work, as well as her recent book The Backsliders: Why Leaders Undermine Their Own Democracies (Princeton University Press, 2025), the conversation explores how rising inequality, shifting party systems, and deepening polarisation create openings for backsliding leaders, and how strategies such as “democratic trash talk” can erode public trust in institutions. Susan Stokes is the Tiffany and Margaret Blake Distinguished Service Professor and Director of the Chicago Center on Democracy at the University of Chicago. Her research focuses on democratic theory, distributive politics, and comparative political behaviour. Temitayo Odeyemi is a Research Fellow in Democratic Resilience at the University of Birmingham's Centre for Elections, Democracy, Accountability and Representation (CEDAR).

Louisiana lawmakers recently passed a bill eliminating New Orleans' clerk of criminal court. The parish had been the only one with two clerks, one for criminal court and another for civil. Governor Jeff Landry signed the bill into law just days before Calvin Duncan, a formerly wrongfully incarcerated Black man, was set to take office, after being elected to the criminal court position in November. Calvin Duncan joins us for more on his fight to keep the job he was elected to serve. Last year, journalist Susan Saulny read the headline, “New Pope Has Creole Roots in New Orleans.” As she learned more about Pope Leo XIV's mixed racial heritage from Louisiana, she began to think about her own family. In particular, her white passing great uncle who moved north, and her Black grandfather who stayed in the south. She set out to learn more about her family history, and recently wrote about her process and discoveries for the New York Times. Susan joins us for more on her discoveries.___Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Alana Schreiber. Our managing producer is Alana Schrieber.

Today, we’re bringing you the best from the KUOW Newsroom… First, Washington state's Democratic party is facing a competitive election season, and its fiercest challengers are other Democrats. Next, Friday was May Day across the US, and here in Seattle, a march and rally started at Cal Anderson park. On hand was a new group called the Seattle Singing Resistance… inspired by the anti-ICE movement in Minnesota. And finally, a story from the city of Battle Ground in southern Washington… A social studies teacher at Battle Ground High School was suspended eight months ago for what she said at a politically charged time, and she’s still working to be allowed back in the classroom.

Last week Cyprus was at the heart of EU developments. For two days it hosted leaders from the EU, from the Middle East, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Topics ranged from critical security issues and the war in Iran, to Europe's engagement with the broader Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East. On the security front, Cyprus is keen to make the EU's Article 42.7, a mutual defense clause similar to NATO's Article 5, work in practice. There is a new sense of urgency around this issue after Cyprus was targeted by drones amid the fallout of the Iran war, and as a result of questions about Washington's commitments to NATO and European security. Konstantinos Letymbiotis, Ian Lesser, and Alexis Papachelas join Thanos Davelis this week as we break down the key takeaways from the EU leaders summit in Cyprus, including the debate around Article 42.7. In addition, we discuss French President Emanuel Macron's visit to Cyprus and Greece, a visit that raised important questions about Europe's future and its geopolitical role.  Taking us to our I am HALC segment, we're highlighting Judge Tom Sianis, a longtime member of HALC with a lifetime commitment to public service and justice. Elected to serve as a Cook County Circuit Court Judge in 2018, Judge Sianis is currently Presiding Judge of the First Municipal District. Throughout his career Tom has been a shining example of Hellenism in public service, from when his career took off at the Cook County State's Attorney's Office to his election to the bench. A little more info on our guests: Konstantinos Letymbiotis is the government spokesperson of the Republic of Cyprus. Ian Lesser is the vice president and Brussels chief of the German Marshall Fund of the United States. Alexis Papachelas is the Executive Editor of Kathimerini. You can support The Greek Current by joining HALC as a member here.

The illusion of a "secure election" has finally crumbled, replaced by the chilling reality of a coordinated "Partner Update" between CISA, Big Tech, and partisan gatekeepers. While the mainstream media peddled a narrative of unassailable integrity, a shadow cabal was working in real-time to ensure the outcome was never left to the American people. We dive deep into the unmasked election day machinery, featuring the explosive insights of Sheriff Bianco on why law enforcement is being systemically blocked from investigating fraud. From the infiltration of our government to the "fortress of lies" built to protect selected leaders, we expose the design behind the chaos, a bipartisan betrayal intended to keep the American public divided and ignored.Patrick is calling out the evil around every corner, focusing on the calculated indoctrination of the next generation. From the Chicago Teachers Union labeling political opponents as "fascists" in kindergarten curricula to Randi Weingarten's disturbing WEF directives on "teaching children how to think," the war for the American mind is being fought in the classroom. We wrap by exposing the pure contempt of the Uniparty from Senator John Cornyn's quiet push for amnesty to the secret cabals in NYC wasting taxpayer billions behind closed doors. They aren't just ignoring you; they are mocking you. It's time to speak the truths that the establishment is too afraid to even write down.
