Editor: As a school board member, I had the opportunity to hand out a few diplomas recently. It was an exhilarating experience to see the joy on the faces of the graduates. As they begin the next chapter in their lives, whether entering college, the armed forces, or the work force, they will enter another informal school, often called the “school of hard knocks.” If going to college, they need to seek guidance to help direct them into areas of specialization with good employment opportunities, avoiding areas such as gender studies, underwater basket weaving, etc., as they are bad debt...

As a co-founder and trustee of the school, Bahnsen shares faith-informed life advice centered on the school's emphasis on thinking well and living well, urging graduates to reject perpetual negativity, victimhood, and fatalism about the economy, AI, or personal trauma. He argues that people are not defined or owned by hardships and can choose optimism, responsibility, and joy, including avoiding “doom scrolling” and building healthy habits and relationships.

This Sunday when we gather, we have the great privilege to celebrate with a special group of people in our River-family, they are our recent Graduates. Some earned their high school diplomas, several earned a bachelor's degree, one earned their Ph.D.! While all these Grads have completed a great challenge, each of them will now step into a new arena where they will face new opponents and battles. That is also true for you! We all are constantly moving from one arena to another where we face new battles and new opponents. That movement is called life! You may be about to enter the arena of college, or the arena of the workplace, or marriage, or parenting, or retirement. Some have entered the arena of battling financial crisis, or job loss, or the arena of chronic illness or debilitating disease. No matter your current arena or the opponent you are facing, GOD has promised His people that HE desires to fight for them if they will let Him! I'm praying you'll join us as we learn from the life and leadership of a man named Joshua, HOW TO LET GOD FIGHT FOR YOU in the arena you are battling through in this season of life! Pastor Joe Still

Government to recruit 500 agriculture graduates under the Food Brigade initiative to boost food production and support households, schools, and farmers across the country as part of the Feed Ghana Programme. - Eric Opoku, Minister for Food and Agriculture

It's commencement season. Graduates are preparing to step into a new chapter of their lives, to leave familiar faces and places behind and chart a new path. And perhaps one of the most iconic moments of graduation is the commencement speech: a few moments of reflection, inspiration and encouragement before crossing one of life's many thresholds. Many of us have heard a commencement speech or two in our lives; many of us may have even heard such an address given at a Jesuit institution. But how many of us remember those addresses? More importantly, how many of us continue to live our lives informed by the best hopes and values and encouragement that such an address intends to convey? For many of us, as the daily grind of life churns ever onward, those words fade and are forgotten. That was the worry, at least, of our guests today. Two longtime veterans of Jesuit higher education, Patrick Furlong and Marissa Papula want us to remember what it means to go out and into the world intent in setting it aflame with the fire of the Holy Spirit. Patrick is the director of the Pam Rector Center for Service and Action at—and a two time alum of—Loyola Marymount University. Marissa Papula is now the director of development for Discerning Deacons but spent more than a decade in Jesuit higher education. And they're here today to offer all of us a commencement address of sorts. Before we get to it, before they share prepared remarks, we wanted to sit down and get to them a little bit, to hear about their journeys and why this time of year is important. So, you'll hear that first. Then, stay tuned for their full commencement address, words to inspire each of us no matter how far out from a graduation we may be.

In this episode of Front Porch Chats, we sit down with recent graduates of the EMPOWER Youth Leadership Program from Schley County High School as they reflect on a year of leadership growth, personal development, and discovering how they can make a difference in their communities.Through EMPOWER, these students were challenged to step outside their comfort zones, strengthen their communication skills, and gain a better understanding of what leadership looks like in action. Along the way, they learned valuable lessons about teamwork, service, professionalism, and civic engagement that will continue to benefit them long after graduation.From hands-on leadership activities to meaningful conversations with community leaders, the program gave students a fresh perspective on their own abilities and on the opportunities available to them in rural Georgia.Students also share some of their favorite experiences from the year, including learning more about their strengths, exploring community development, and building skills that will help prepare them for college, careers, and future leadership roles.Most importantly, these Schley County graduates reflect on how EMPOWER gave them confidence—not only in themselves, but in their ability to help shape the future.In this episode, you'll hear:How EMPOWER helped students become stronger leadersLessons learned through leadership training and hands-on experiencesThe importance of community involvement and civic awarenessSkills students gained to prepare for life after high schoolWhy investing in youth leadership creates stronger rural communitiesJoin us as we celebrate the next generation of leaders from Schley County and hear how EMPOWER is helping students step into their potential.

For Dom Z., Bridgewater State University in Massachusetts was an endless buffet of opportunities. In this episode of Autism Goes to College, Dom shares with Katharine how he made it across the finish line while immersing himself in campus life, student government, clubs, and the music scene.

Davis, author of the "Don't Know Much About History" series and most recently, The World in Books: 52 Works of Great Short Nonfiction (Scribner, 2024), shares the history of how Americans have observed Memorial Day and its history Jodi Kantor, New York Times investigative reporter, co-author of She Said (Penguin, 2019) and author of How to Start: Discovering Your Life's Work (Hachette, 2026), expands on her Columbia University commencement address where she tried to answer the question, “How, in this environment, is anyone supposed to find and start their life's work?”.

Michael Valdovinos, a clinical psychologist, veteran, trauma expert and the author of Moral Injuries: When Good Conscience Suffers in a World of Hurt (Harper, 2026), talks about recognizing and healing "moral injuries" that occur not from physical trauma, but from acts that violate the conscience, and are now understood to affect those on the battlefield, and in all walks of life.

On this episode of The Baller Lifestyle Podcast, Brian and Ed return with a packed show covering celebrity deaths, He-Man nostalgia, Jordan Peterson backlash, hot-wife discourse, billionaire blackmail, weird modern masculinity trends, and one of the strangest island-goat hypotheticals ever posed in the mailbag. The guys kick things off discussing backlash from Brian's Patreon clips about Jelly Roll and Jordan Peterson before diving into Peterson's contradictions, internet outrage culture, and why people in three-piece suits are furious online. They revisit the bizarre legacy of He-Man after news of a new live-action adaptation, debate whether modern actors can physically resemble cartoon proportions, and reflect on the surreal hyper-masculinity of '80s action toys. The show also includes: A deep dive into “Donna Martin Graduates” and classic teen-TV drama logic Graduation ceremony horror stories Valedictorian resentment The absurdity of modern school ceremonies Rudy revisionist history and Dan Devine's legendary response to the movie RIPs of the Week Brian and Ed remember: Jason Collins Rex Reed Alex Zanardi Bobby Cox Craig Morton Donald Gibb Along the way they discuss: Movie critics disappearing from pop culture Why nobody respects critics anymore Dangerous hiking trails Michael Schumacher's condition Bobby Cox getting ejected an entire season's worth of games The possibility that Jordan Peterson dying from pill addiction is objectively funny Sports & Weird News The conversation veers into: Diana Russini and Mike Vrabel rumors “Hot wife” culture explained Billionaire blackmail plots HPV lawsuits Shilo Sanders' legal disaster Elon Musk allegedly pretending to be his own mother online “Ball-maxing” influencers inflating their testicles Secret Service hallway masturbation Rebel Wilson being accused of fabricating allegations James Cameron being sued over Avatar likeness claims Listener Mailbag The mailbag delivers an all-time insane hypothetical: If stranded on an island with a half-goat/half-woman hybrid… which half do you choose?
