When life feels confusing, painful, or unfair, it's natural to ask hard questions. In this message from Habakkuk 1–2, Our guest speaker, George Wright reminds us that God is not afraid of our doubts, our struggles, or even our cries for help. Just as Habakkuk wrestled with what he saw happening around him, we too can bring our biggest questions of faith to God.Through this powerful sermon, we are reminded:• God is big enough to handle our hardest questions• God is sovereign and in control even when hope seems lost• God's plan is perfect, and He can always be trustedFeaturing reflections from Psalm 22, Matthew 27:46, and the story of Habakkuk, this message points us back to the faithfulness and sovereignty of God in every season.

Isaiah 61:1-3, Luke 4:16-21 | George Wright
Luke 2:8-14 - George Wright
Le péché, ce n'est pas seulement faire quelque chose de mal. Parfois, choisir de ne rien faire alors qu'on pourrait aider quelqu'un… c'est aussi passer à côté de ce que Dieu nous invite à vivre. Dans son message, le pasteur George parle de ces « oublis » qu'on appelle des péchés par omission. Il nous rappelle aussi à quel point choisir la paix dans nos relations fait une différence. Même quand c'est difficile, on peut décider de répondre avec douceur plutôt qu'avec tension. Et parce qu'on suit Jésus, on apprend à pardonner comme lui nous a pardonnés. Son amour pour nous, démontré à la croix, devient ce qui nous pousse à aimer et à pardonner à notre tour.
As part of the GIRO 2025 mini-series, we speak to George Wright about getting the right tools and support for modern actuarial modelling.

Spalding and George Wright. These two names might not be as famous as Babe Ruth or Jackie Robinson, but their impact on baseball's transformation from a simple game to a nationwide business powerhouse is huge.We'll explore how Spalding's marketing genius and Wright's pioneering play helped shape baseball into the beloved sport we know today. You're not going to want to miss this deep dive into baseball history.
George Melendez Wright was a brilliant young scientist with the National Park Service back in the 1920s and 1930s. You could say he was ahead of his time, in that he wanted the Park Service to take a holistic role in how wildlife in the parks was managed. While Wright tragically left the world too young when he was killed in a car crash in 1936, his name lives on today in the George Wright Society, a nonprofit organization that is focused on stewardship of parks, protected & conserved areas, cultural sites, and other kinds of place-based conservation. Our guest today is Dave Harmon, executive director of the society. We'll be back in a minute with Dave to learn more about the society and the role it plays.

The nineteenth century was a time of rapid growth and development for the game of “base ball,” and players George Wright and Albert Spalding were right in the thick of it. These two young men, the first superstars of the professional game, won the hearts of a country in search of a unifying spirit after a devastating civil war. Today’s guest is Jeff Orens, author of Selling Baseball: How Superstars George Wright and Albert Spalding Impacted Sports in America. While these two men came from starkly different backgrounds—Albert was a young, gangly pitcher from the country’s rural heartland and George the consummate athlete from the New York City area—their captivating performances on the field, along with their promotion of the game and of sports equipment, fed the public’s insatiable appetite for leisure-time pursuits and helped grow professional baseball to unprecedented heights. George Wright and Albert Spalding’s stories are woven together to paint a sweeping picture of the early days of professional baseball, the evolution of sports as a business, and the advancement of sports equipment and the sporting goods industry. Their rise as players and businessmen mirrored the rise of a nation that would lead the world in the coming century.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
