​​Are central banks stealing your soul? In this show we explore why fiat debasement is a moral crisis and why Biblical stewardship now requires Bitcoin. We dive deep into the ethics of money production, the "hidden theology" of the Bitcoin blockchain, and why the global Church is ditching the dollar to reclaim financial sovereignty. The modern church often ignores the financial rot that weakens its influence. Most organizations function within a reactive cycle. Effective Christian leaders now recognize that ignoring the collapsing financial landscape constitutes negligence. We explore the intersection of faith and finance to understand why so many NGOs admit that their global mission suffers under current funding systems. We analyze the inevitable consequences of currency debasement and discuss why apathy is no longer an option for responsible leaders.Jordan Bush (@jmbushwrites) and Ahshuwah Hawthorne (@iAhsh) demonstrate how engineering rigor changes how ministry funds move across borders. They explain the function of their innovation lab where Bitcoin developers and ministry heads collaborate on building new solutions. They equip those on the front lines with the tools necessary to survive when the centralized banking system denies them access.We have accepted managed decline as the natural order of things. We discuss why Bitcoin functions as sound money that restores a moral framework to our economy. This conversation serves as a necessary check for anyone who wants to understand how incentives dictate human behavior and societal outcomes.Growing organizations often abandon the for-profit model as momentum builds. Restructuring as a non-profit arm of Brilliance Labs allows these groups to shift their focus from quarterly returns to long-term global impact. This move creates a foundation that enables ministries to hold value and sustain operations without fear of censorship or institutional overreach.The religious establishment frequently dismisses Bitcoin despite its role as a vital asset for our time. These digital assets create a bridge for people to re-examine their values, low time preference, and legacy. This episode serves as a guide for those who believe the traditional financial world requires correction.

In this episode, Mark Gillmore reports from Uganda, where the gospel is breaking through long-standing religious strongholds and transforming lives. Through the testimonies of Pastor Michael and Pastor John, we see how God is raising up faithful men, establishing churches, and multiplying the truth across communities. Uganda is not just another mission field—it is a harvest field that is ready right now. Topics Discussed Pastor Michael's journey from religious compromise to biblical conviction The cost of standing for truth, including rejection and excommunication The early struggles of preaching the gospel in resistant religious environments The transformation of Uganda's spiritual landscape over the past 30 years Pastor John's vision for training men to plant churches and reach rural communities The multiplication model of ministry based on 2 Timothy 2:2 The role of radio ministry in reaching people trapped in false religion The importance of training local leaders in their own language and context The need to prioritize doctrinal clarity over mere religious activity The urgency of laborers entering a harvest that is already ripe Key Takeaways The harvest in Uganda is not future, it is present. God is already at work drawing people to Himself. Obedience to truth may come at a cost, but it is the pathway to real fruit. Gospel advance depends on training faithful men who will teach others also. Indigenous leadership is essential for lasting, multiplying ministry. Religious activity without truth leaves people lost. Clear gospel preaching is still needed. God uses simple, faithful efforts to break through even deeply rooted strongholds. There is a real and urgent opportunity to be part of what God is doing in Uganda today. Do you have a story of gospel advance or a burden for a specific people group? We'd love to hear it.

What does it look like to lead in one of the least-reached nations on earth? In this episode, Jason Watson speaks with Miho Buchholtz about following Jesus and serving the church in Japan, where Christians make up a very small minority and ministry often requires deep patience, humility, and long-term faithfulness. Miho reflects on her own story of depression and healing, the spiritual and cultural realities of Japan, the challenges of church planting in a secular context, and the quiet, resilient leadership needed to serve well in a place where visible fruit can come slowly.  

What Caused Him to Be a Crime Fighter: From Gangs in England to a Global Mission. In this Special Episode of the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, listeners are introduced to Simon Osamoh, a former police officer from England whose journey from the streets of the United Kingdom to becoming an American-based security consultant, author, and podcaster is nothing short of remarkable. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Growing up in England, Simon Osamoh was shaped by adversity, discipline, and a relentless drive to prove others wrong. “When someone said I was too young,” he recalls, “I just outworked them.” That mindset became the foundation of his career in law enforcement and beyond. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and most major podcast platforms. #Free #Podcast #Radio From England's Streets to Fighting Organized Crime Simon's law enforcement career placed him on the front lines of police fighting organized crime and terrorism. While many in the United States often associate gang activity with major cities like London, Simon explains that gangs in England operate far beyond the capital. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . “Organized crime isn't just a London problem,” Simon says. “There are networks across rural areas, drug operations, trafficking rings, vehicle theft, these are coordinated, often international efforts.” What Caused Him to Be a Crime Fighter: From Gangs in England to a Global Mission. Across England and Wales, specialized units work to combat these threats. Regional Organized Crime Units (ROCUs) support national agencies in tackling everything from financial crimes to violent syndicates. Rural crime networks have also expanded, targeting agricultural communities and operating with increasing sophistication. The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. Misconceptions About Crime and Terrorism Now living in the United States, Simon frequently speaks about the misconceptions Americans have regarding crime in the UK. “People think it's less dangerous or less complex, but that's not the reality,” he explains. “Terrorism investigations, organized crime, financial tracking, it's all interconnected.” Legal frameworks, both in the UK and the U.S., play a crucial role in disrupting these networks. In the United States, for example, laws like Section 311 of the Patriot Act allow authorities to target international money laundering and terrorist financing. These tools, combined with intelligence-sharing, form a global effort to combat crime. What Caused Him to Be a Crime Fighter: From Gangs in England to a Global Mission. Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. Overcoming Adversity and Breaking Stereotypes Simon's journey was not without challenges. He openly discusses overcoming racial and class stereotypes, which he describes as barriers that can limit opportunity if left unchallenged. “Racial stereotypes are often inaccurate and harmful,” Simon notes. “They're built over time through misinformation and bias, but they don't define who you are or what you can achieve.” Instead of allowing those obstacles to define him, Simon used them as motivation. His story highlights the importance of resilience, hard work, and self-belief in overcoming systemic and personal challenges. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. What Prevents Crime? Drawing from both experience and broader research, Simon emphasizes that criminal behavior is often shaped and prevented by key factors: Fear of Legal Consequences: The risk of arrest and punishment can deter criminal activity. Strong Social Bonds: Family, community, and relationships create accountability. Stable Upbringing: Positive role models and structure help guide individuals away from crime. “These aren't just theories,” Simon says. “They're things you see play out every day in real life.” What Caused Him to Be a Crime Fighter: From Gangs in England to a Global Mission. A Global Perspective and a New Mission Today, Simon Osamoh continues his mission beyond policing. As a security consultant, author, and podcast guest, he shares insights drawn from years of experience in England, policing, and global crime prevention. You can listen to the complete interview for free on our website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major podcast platforms. His story is one of transformation, from a British law enforcement officer tackling gangs and terrorism to a voice of experience and perspective in the United States. “This journey isn't about where you start,” Simon reflects. “It's about how hard you're willing to work and what you're willing to overcome.” You can find the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, X (formerly Twitter), and LinkedIn, as well as read companion articles and updates on Medium, Blogspot, YouTube, and even IMDB.

In this episode of the Mission Matters Podcast, Sarah Breuel shares her experience as a Brazilian missionary serving in Rome and leading a university student movement across Europe. With nearly 20 years in cross-cultural missions, she discusses the growth of the Global South in missions, the rise of Brazilian missionaries, and what it looks like to reach secular, post-Christian contexts like Italy. Sarah also shares her personal calling story and how the gospel reached her family through earlier missionaries, highlighting the ongoing importance of sending and going.The conversation addresses key questions many church and missions leaders are asking today: Are Western missionaries still needed? Has missions become outdated or harmful? Sarah offers a clear, biblical perspective on the continued need for cross-cultural missions and challenges leaders to call the next generation to sacrificial obedience. Drawing from her work with university students, she explains why Gen Z is more open to missions than many assume and why churches must raise the bar in discipleship, calling, and global engagement.The Mission Matters Podcast is a place to talk about the importance of our Mission as Christians. The Mission Matters is a partnership of Missio Nexus and Sixteen:Fifteen, who have a shared passion to mobilize God's people to be a part of His mission.

On this episode of the podcast, Amanda explores the global mission to expand the Kingdom of God through one of the most ambitious evangelism efforts in modern history. Head is joined by Alan, Director of Language Studios for the Jesus Film Project, who shares how the ministry worked to translate the Gospel into 2,276 languages — bringing the story of Jesus to people in their own native tongue. In 2024 alone, the film reached an astonishing 730 million viewers and led to 14 million reported conversions worldwide.Alan takes listeners behind the scenes of this massive undertaking, explaining how translations are often recorded in makeshift studios using local voices and resources. He highlights the critical role of community involvement, the importance of cultural accuracy, and the unique challenges of maintaining unity and safety in regions where spreading the Gospel can come at a cost.This episode is a powerful look at faith in action on a global scale—and a reminder of how technology, storytelling, and mission-driven work are coming together to reach the unreached.

Global Missions Trends in 2026 Impacting the Advancement of the Church.Host: Justin McCain

Mental health challenges affect millions of people around the world—but what if caring for the mind and emotions is not just a pastoral concern, but a critical part of the church's mission?   Summary In this episode of the Lausanne Movement Podcast, Jason Watson speaks with Dr. Gladys Mwiti, a Kenyan clinical psychologist, trauma specialist, and founder of Oasis Africa Wellness. Drawing from over three decades of ministry and counseling experience, Dr. Mwiti explains why mental health care is essential to God's mission of restoring the whole person. The conversation explores how addressing trauma, burnout, and emotional health strengthens evangelism, discipleship, and Christlike leadership in the global church. Main Points Mental health is central to holistic mission. The gospel addresses the whole person—spiritual, emotional, relational, and social healing. The global church faces a growing mental health crisis. Mental health disorders are among the leading causes of disability worldwide. Ignoring mental health weakens the church's witness. Trauma, anxiety, and depression affect families, communities, and ministry leaders. Pastors and ministry leaders often carry hidden burdens. Many leaders experience stress, burnout, and isolation while caring for others. Burnout develops gradually. Warning signs include emotional fatigue, decreased motivation, cynicism, and social withdrawal. Young leaders face increasing pressure. Social comparison, high expectations, and limited mentorship contribute to rising anxiety. Healthy leadership begins with inner health. Emotionally healthy leaders are better equipped to demonstrate humility, wisdom, and compassion. Sustainable ministry requires intentional rhythms. Rest, Sabbath practices, journaling, peer accountability, and counseling help leaders finish well. The church can respond through community care. Congregations can train members to provide basic support and referrals through collaborative mental health ministries.   Links & Resources Oasis Africa Wellness - https://www.oasisafricawellness.co.ke   Connect with Dr. Gladys Mwiti LinkedIn: Oasis Africa Wellness Email: glmwiti@oasisafrica.co.ke Admin contact: admin@oasisafrica.co.ke   Lausanne Articles by Dr. Gladys Mwiti Turning the Church's Attention to Mental Health - https://lausanne.org/global-analysis/turning-the-churchs-attention-to-mental-health Task Shifting for Mental Health and Trauma: Implications for the Global Church- https://lausanne.org/gathering/task-shifting-for-mental-health-and-trauma-implications-for-the-global-church   Guest Bio Dr. Gladys Mwiti is a Kenyan clinical psychologist, trauma specialist, and founder and CEO of Oasis Africa Center for Transformational Psychology and Trauma in Nairobi. With more than three decades of experience, she has equipped churches, leaders, and communities across Africa to respond to trauma, mental health challenges, and leadership development. Dr. Mwiti has served as chair of the Kenya Psychological Association, co-chaired the Lausanne Congress Mental Health and Trauma Advisory Group, and has written several books and articles on Christian counseling and holistic care in mission.

What would it look like if every village had a gospel witness? In this episode of the GoMission podcast, Mark Gillmore travels to northwest Ghana to speak with Pastor Charles and his son Abednego about a bold vision: a church in every village. After more than twenty-five years of ministry, Pastor Charles is challenging his church to make Christ's final command their first concern by training leaders and sending workers into nearby communities. The conversation reveals how God has been preparing this moment for years. Through a network of schools established in rural villages, young people have learned to read, study Scripture, and develop leadership skills. Now many of those same individuals are stepping forward to help start churches in places where the gospel has not yet taken root. As the church prays, gives, and sends laborers, the vision is beginning to move from idea to reality. When believers are equipped and entrusted with responsibility, the gospel can spread from village to village across an entire region. Topics Discussed The vision of a church in every village Pastor Charles' 25+ years of ministry in northern Ghana Mobilizing believers through faith-promise giving for missions Sending trained leaders to start new fellowships in nearby villages How education is preparing future gospel leaders Abednego's work training teachers across dozens of rural schools Leadership multiplication and training others to lead The importance of giving young believers meaningful ministry opportunities Simple tools like testimonies, gospel presentations, and discovery Bible studies Trusting God to raise up laborers for the harvest Key Takeaways The Great Commission advances when churches intentionally train and send workers. Multiplying leaders is essential for reaching entire regions with the gospel. Education can play a strategic role in preparing communities to engage the Word of God. Young believers grow when they are trusted with real responsibility in ministry. With faith, vision, and multiplication, a church in every village becomes a mission worth pursuing.

In this inspiring episode of the Dead America Podcast, host Ed Watters speaks with Craig Alsup, full‑time missionary and global advocate with Manna Worldwide, a Fort Worth–based nonprofit serving children and families in nearly 50 countries. Craig shares how an around‑the‑world trip in 2008 exposed him and his wife to overwhelming physical and spiritual poverty, trafficking, hunger, and brokenness—an experience that reshaped their lives and ultimately led them to leave careers in therapy and public health to serve full time with Manna beginning in 2015. Craig explains the origins of Manna Worldwide, which began in the Philippines feeding children and strengthening local churches through holistic, community‑driven programs. Today, Manna operates roughly 300 projects, including nutrition centers, schools, orphanages, medical clinics, anti‑trafficking initiatives, and church‑planting partnerships, serving around 20,000 children and families every day. He shares a powerful story from Nepal about a young girl whose life was transformed through sponsorship, education, nutrition, and the hope of the gospel—illustrating how long‑term relationships and local leadership create lasting change. Craig also discusses the importance of gratitude, the global realities of poverty, and the call of Acts 1:8 to serve both locally and globally. Listeners will learn: How Manna Worldwide feeds kids and plants churches Why missions matter in today's world The impact of holistic care on families and communities How to join mission trips, sponsor children, or partner financially Craig's personal journey of calling, faith, and obedience Craig closes with a heartfelt challenge to step into generosity, service, and global compassion. He provides ways to connect, give, and get involved in Manna's mission to bring hope to the nations.

In this episode of The World View, Alex Kocman sits down with Pennsylvania State Representative Joe D’Orsie for a thoughtful, candid conversation on one of the most uncomfortable questions facing modern believers: Should Christians put their own country first? Together they explore the tension between global missions and local responsibility, the proper “order of loves,” and why many Christians feel torn between political concerns and spiritual duties. “Do you think Christians today are imbalanced between missions and politics?” https://abwe.org/ https://repjoed.com/
