In this episode of The World View, Alex Kocman examines several stories shaping the global conversation and asks a deeper question: why does so much of human history revolve around the person of Jesus Christ?First, the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran once again puts the Middle East at the center of global attention. But beneath the geopolitics lies a deeper reality: the world's major conflicts are tied to the competing claims of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam—and ultimately to the question Jesus asked his disciples: “Who do you say that I am?”Next, Alex addresses reports of a missile strike on a school in Iran and what Christian moral teaching says about war, the dignity of human life, and the principles of just war theory developed by Augustine and Aquinas.Then we examine troubling survey data showing a decline in pro-life convictions among churchgoers, and what that reveals about the influence of culture on modern evangelicalism.Finally, Alex discusses the growing debate about pastoral sabbaticals, the state of masculinity in the church, and whether modern ministries are producing fewer missionary-minded men like William Carey and Hudson Taylor.If the church is growing softer, what kind of Christianity are we exporting to the world? https://abwe.org/https://press.founders.org/shop/order...

New Zealand's exports are booming, driven by rising global demand for food. New trade figures show exports surged to $29.2 billion dollars in the December quarter – up $2.2 billion on a year earlier. Two-way trade also leapt to just over $61 billion. Business NZ CEO Katherine Rich told Mike Hosking the country produces enough food to feed around 50 million people. She says these products need to be sold for the highest value possible, which is what we're seeing for meat. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's no secret that Louisiana culture and cuisine have broad national and even international appeal. This week, we look at some local companies that have successfully leveraged a love for Louisiana to expand their operations across the state and beyond. We begin with the cannabis-infused seltzer brand, Louie Louie. Brewed on the banks of the Mississippi in New Orleans, the company celebrates our state's flavors in every can. And people are drinking it up – everywhere from local restaurants like Mosca's and the Napoleon House to locations across the nation. Two of the company's founders, Ken Jackson and Eric Becker, join us. Then, we sit down with Braithe Tidwell. The corporate beverage director for the Ralph Brennan Restaurant Group tells us how Louie Louie Pimm's Cup cocktails made their way onto the Napoleon House menu. Next, we learn about the fast-casual seafood restaurant company, Off the Hook. Founded in Thibodaux, the business had been steadily expanding across Louisiana – most recently opening a location in Lafayette. We speak with CEO Paxton Moreaux about growing his brand while keeping everything authentic and hyper-local. Finally, we speak with Jennifer Weishaupt, founder and CEO of the Ruby Slipper Restaurant Group. The Ruby Slipper Café has prospered and multiplied in a way that Jennifer and her husband Eric could never have anticipated when they opened their very first Mid-City location in 2008. She tells us about her ever-expanding breakfast and brunch empire, now serving hungry diners in locations across six states.

Concerns include China exporting thousands of EVs, potentially overwhelming domestic industries and acting as security threats. Canada hopes China will manufacture EVs locally to offset Canadian auto job losses, but Burton is skeptical of this strategy and considers the Canadian government ill-advised.
