    The Shocking Accuracy Of Daniel's Prophecies | Biblical Prophecy Revealed! | TFH EPISODE #176

    How can a prophecy written over 2,000 years ago be so shockingly accurate, yet still remain a mystery to so many? That's the paradox of the Biblical book of Daniel's predictions.The Book of Daniel demonstrates the Bible's unmatched accuracy, as it foretells the rise of Babylon, Persia, and Greece under Alexander the Great, and other empires, long before they occurred, with the Septuagint confirming that these prophecies were recorded over 200 years before Jesus. As we dive into Daniel's prophetic chapters, we're seeing these patterns continue today, with Joe Morris' end times teachings reminding us to stay alert as wars, rumors of wars, and moral confusion rise. From radical anti-Israel voices gaining influence, to Trump's plan to arm Ukraine while tensions with Russia escalate, to Biden's autopen scandal exposing lawlessness in leadership, and even a Colorado DA dropping charges against a transgender child predator, these headlines reveal a world shaking under deception, corruption, and the erosion of justice—signs Jesus warned would increase before His return. Now is the time to stay rooted in God's Word, watch the prophetic signs, and live ready, because Jesus is coming soon, and the Bible continues to prove itself true with each passing headline.------------------------------------------------------------

    “History is written by the winners.” This aphorism is catchy and it makes an important point that a lot of what we know about history was written with an agenda, not for the purposes of informing us. Unfortunately, it isn’t true. There are many times that the so-called “losers” wrote the histories remembered today. After the American Civil War, Southern historians like Edward Pollard crafted "Lost Cause" narratives, romanticizing the Confederacy despite their defeat. Similarly, Chinese and Persian accounts of the Mongol invasions, such as those by Zhao Hong and Ata-Malik Juvayni, detailed Mongol brutality and cultural impacts from the perspective of the subjugated, challenging the victors' dominance. But this statement still gets to a fundament question: What if the history you learned was deliberately shaped by people with their own agendas? This question drives today’s guest, Richard Cohen, in his book “Making History: The Storytellers Who Shaped The Past.” We explore how historians and storytellers, from ancient Greece to the modern era, shape our understanding of history through their biases and agendas, featuring figures like Herodotus, who blended fact and fable, Edward Gibbon, whose Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire reflected his personal perspective, and William Randolph Hearst, whose yellow journalism distorted historical narratives. No history is truly objective, as personal, cultural, and political influences inevitably color the accounts of chroniclers like Thucydides, Tacitus, Voltaire, but we can still construct an understanding of the past that brings us closer to the truth.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    John is a fearless follower of Jesus who gets bombarded daily with death threats from across the world for his outspoken witness for Christ. His back story was that he had misgivings with the faith of his birth when on pilgrimage from Yemen to Mecca, Saudi Arabia. As a disillusioned but spiritually searching agnostic, his convoluted travels led him to meeting a Syrian refugee in Greece with a tattooed cross on his wrist. That launched him on a journey to passionate faith in Christ, not as a prophet but as his Lord and Saviour. John's meteoric rise as an influencer on social media has led thousands of Muslims around the world to encounter and embrace a personal living relationship with Jesus.

    Gospel Daily with Josh Weidmann Rise Up In An Upside-Down World... Part 2 Series: Daniel - Thy Kingdom Come Scripture: Daniel 8 Episode: 1303 In Daniel 8, Daniel receives a vision of a ram and a goat, symbolizing future conflict between empires. The ram with two horns represents Media and Persia, while the goat with a prominent horn symbolizes Greece, specifically Alexander the Great. The goat defeats the ram, but its large horn is broken and replaced by four others—signifying the division of the Greek empire. From one of these, a small horn arises, representing a future ruler who opposes God, desecrates the temple, and exalts himself against the “Prince of the host.” The vision is later explained by the angel Gabriel, who confirms it concerns the time of the end. Key themes include prophetic symbolism of world empires, desecration of the temple, and God's ultimate judgment on evil rulers.

    It was a week that brought the future of Greece and the Eurozone to the brink. Ten years ago, on 6 July the Greek people voted against the terms of a financial bailout which included raising taxes and slashing welfare spending. Greece owed €323bn to various countries and banks within Europe. Its banks were closed. A quarter of the population and half of Greece's young people were unemployed.The morning after the vote, Euclid Tsakalotos was brought in to replace Yanis Varoufakis as finance minister. His predecessor had accused European leaders of “terrorism” in their handling of the crisis. Parachuted in to last-ditch talks with angry European leaders, Euclid Tsakalotos describes to Josephine McDermott the make-or-break 17-hour summit in Brussels. He reveals that when Angela Merkel, the leader of Greece's biggest lender Germany, said she was leaving the room because she could not accept what was on the table, Donald Tusk, president of the European Council, actually locked the door to stop her leaving and force an agreement to be reached.

    Anastasios Karababas, "In the Footsteps of the Jews of Greece: From Ancient Times to the Present Day" (Vallentine Mitchell & Co, 2024)

    “To live, a people must always be able to know its past, to judge it, to accept it.”— Simone Veil, French politician and Shoah survivor When I sat down with historian Anastasios Karababas to discuss his new book, In the Footsteps of the Jews of Greece: From Ancient Times to the Present Day (Paperback, published January 30, 2024), I was struck by the depth and complexity of the story he tells—a story that spans over 2,500 years and is still unfolding today. Karababas in the book and the conversation guided me through the origins and evolution of Jewish life in Greece from ancient times to today. We discussed the four major Jewish groups whose histories are intertwined with the Greek landscape: Romaniots, the ancient Greek Jews whose presence predates the Romans. Ashkenazi Jews, who arrived between the 11th and 13th centuries, bringing their Central European traditions. Sephardic Jews, who found refuge in Greece after their expulsion from Spain in the 15th century, especially revitalizing the community in Thessaloniki. Italian Jews, who settled in the 16th century, further enriching the community's diversity. Thessaloniki, once known as the "Jerusalem of the Balkans," stood out in our conversation as a beacon of Jewish life, with Jews making up 30–40% of the city's population at its height. Karababas's account of the 20th century was both inspiring and heartbreaking. Before World War II, there were about 75,000 Jews in Greece. He shared the stories of Jews who served in the Greek army against Mussolini, a testament to their deep sense of belonging. But the Holocaust cast a long shadow, with 85% of the community deported and wiping out around 90% of the community leaving a profound void. Today, as Karababas explained, the Jewish population in Greece numbers only about 5,000, spread across nine communities—a stark contrast to the more than thirty that once existed. Only Athens, Thessaloniki, and Larissa still have resident rabbis. These communities survive through private funding and the interest of Jewish heritage tourism, striving to keep their unique traditions alive. Our discussion also touched on the complexities of Judeophobia in Greece. Karababas described Judeophobia as a blend of anti-semitism, anti-zionism, and anti-Judaism, with roots in the influence of the Greek Orthodox Church. He characterized current anti-semitism as “superficial,” with few violent incidents. Despite the rise in anti-zionist sentiment, he pointed out that Greece maintains strong governmental ties with Israel, reflecting the nuanced relationship between Greek society, its Jewish citizens, and the broader region. Reading In the Footsteps of the Jews of Greece: From Ancient Times to the Present Day and speaking with Karababas reminded me how vital it is to know, judge, and accept our past as a means of ensuring a safer future.

    Gospel Daily with Josh Weidmann Rise Up In An Upside-Down World... Part 1 Series: Daniel - Thy Kingdom Come Scripture: Daniel 8 Episode: 1302 In Daniel 8, Daniel receives a vision of a ram and a goat, symbolizing future conflict between empires. The ram with two horns represents Media and Persia, while the goat with a prominent horn symbolizes Greece, specifically Alexander the Great. The goat defeats the ram, but its large horn is broken and replaced by four others—signifying the division of the Greek empire. From one of these, a small horn arises, representing a future ruler who opposes God, desecrates the temple, and exalts himself against the “Prince of the host.” The vision is later explained by the angel Gabriel, who confirms it concerns the time of the end. Key themes include prophetic symbolism of world empires, desecration of the temple, and God's ultimate judgment on evil rulers.

Among the topics discussed: + Nikola Jokic caused a stir in NBA circles by ... doing nothing?! Denver's MVP center became extension-eligible last week but declined to sign on the dotted line, according to league sources. Here's why Nuggets fans need not freak out — yet. + Jonas Valanciunas caused a stir in NBA circles by ... visiting Greece?! The recently acquired backup to Jokic was offered a three-year contract by EuroLeague power Panathinaikos, and Valanciunas signaled mutual interest by visiting Greece. Yet the Nuggets hold all the cards. What happens next? + Nuggets big man DaRon Holmes II returned to NBA Summer League a year after rupturing an Achilles tendon at the very same venue. How did the second-year player look? And how might he slot into what's becoming a deep Nuggets rotation? + With the Cam Johnson-MPJ trade now complete, the fellas ponder if the Nuggets might now have a better starting five than when the franchise won the NBA title in 2023.

    “To live, a people must always be able to know its past, to judge it, to accept it.”— Simone Veil, French politician and Shoah survivor When I sat down with historian Anastasios Karababas to discuss his new book, In the Footsteps of the Jews of Greece: From Ancient Times to the Present Day (Paperback, published January 30, 2024), I was struck by the depth and complexity of the story he tells—a story that spans over 2,500 years and is still unfolding today. Karababas in the book and the conversation guided me through the origins and evolution of Jewish life in Greece from ancient times to today. We discussed the four major Jewish groups whose histories are intertwined with the Greek landscape: Romaniots, the ancient Greek Jews whose presence predates the Romans. Ashkenazi Jews, who arrived between the 11th and 13th centuries, bringing their Central European traditions. Sephardic Jews, who found refuge in Greece after their expulsion from Spain in the 15th century, especially revitalizing the community in Thessaloniki. Italian Jews, who settled in the 16th century, further enriching the community's diversity. Thessaloniki, once known as the "Jerusalem of the Balkans," stood out in our conversation as a beacon of Jewish life, with Jews making up 30–40% of the city's population at its height. Karababas's account of the 20th century was both inspiring and heartbreaking. Before World War II, there were about 75,000 Jews in Greece. He shared the stories of Jews who served in the Greek army against Mussolini, a testament to their deep sense of belonging. But the Holocaust cast a long shadow, with 85% of the community deported and wiping out around 90% of the community leaving a profound void. Today, as Karababas explained, the Jewish population in Greece numbers only about 5,000, spread across nine communities—a stark contrast to the more than thirty that once existed. Only Athens, Thessaloniki, and Larissa still have resident rabbis. These communities survive through private funding and the interest of Jewish heritage tourism, striving to keep their unique traditions alive.

    One-Act Play Collections - Book 13, Part 1 Title: One-Act Play Collections - Volume 13 Overview: Here, in our 13th collection, are 10 One-Act Plays for your enjoyment. They range from tales of ancient Greek sailors to a story about early 1900 moonshiners; many short gems to make you laugh, cry, think, or all three. A one-act play is a play that has only one act and is distinct from plays that occur over several acts. One-act plays may consist of one or more scenes. The 20-40 minute play has emerged as a popular subgenre of the one-act play, especially in writing competitions. One-act plays make up the overwhelming majority of Fringe Festival shows including at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The origin of the one-act play may be traced to the very beginning of recorded Western drama: in ancient Greece, Cyclops, a satyr play by Euripides, is an early example. The satyr play was a farcical short work that came after a trilogy of multi-act serious drama plays. A few notable examples of one-act plays emerged before the 19th century including various versions of the Everyman play and works by Moliere and Calderon. One act plays became more common in the 19th century and is now a standard part of repertory theatre and fringe festivals.

Obama Tells Democrats to Get Nasty and Shout Down Opponents At a fundraiser in New Jersey, former President Barack Obama told fellow Democrats to stop being polite and start aggressively silencing Trump supporters. Bryan argues that this is a dangerous call to escalate the political hysteria already rampant on the left—and a rejection of the foundational American value of free speech. Biden's “Blurbs” and Autopen Pardons Spark Oversight Scrutiny President Biden defends using an autopen to pardon thousands, including a gang leader who killed a child. But admissions that staff relied on vague oral directions—dubbed “Biden Blurbs”—and lacked documentation are drawing fire from Congress. Bryan asks: who was really in charge of the White House? Supreme Court Grants Trump Sweeping Power Over Federal Bureaucracy A major ruling allows Trump to fire Education Department employees without congressional approval. The decision, according to analysts, revives presidential impoundment powers and opens the door to downsizing federal agencies across the board.

    Send us a textWe think of Sparta as a grim place, more of a military barracks with some civilians attached than an actual city. Its inhumane marriage laws, nauseating eugenics program, brutal educational system, obsession with military training, and paranoid suspicion of non-Spartans all led French historian Henri-Irénée Marrou to label Classical Sparta as an ancient fascist state. But there was a time, as Marrou argues in his history of ancient education, when Sparta was the cultural center of ancient Greek life. Artists and musicians flocked to pre-Classical, archaic Sparta to find a population more appreciative of fine poetry and music than anywhere else in Greece. Jonathan and Ryan turn to the Spartan lyric poets Tyrtaeus and Alcman to investigate what Spartan education and society was like in the archaic period, before the city closed in on itself.Henri-Irénée Marrou's A History of Education in Antiquity: https://bookshop.org/a/25626/9780299088149Thomas Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur: https://bookshop.org/a/25626/9780199537341New Humanists episode on Homer's Contest: https://newhumanists.buzzsprout.com/1791279/episodes/13949908-nietzsche-homer-and-cruelty-episode-lviM.L.

    Before the Greeks and Romans, the Celts ruled the ancient world. They sacked Rome, invaded Greece, and conquered much of Europe, from Ireland to Turkey. Celts registered deeply on the classical imagination for a thousand years and were variously described by writers like Caesar and Livy as unruly barbarians, fearless warriors, and gracious hosts. But then, in the early Middle Ages, they vanished. In The Celts, Ian Stewart tells the story of their rediscovery during the Renaissance and their transformation over the next few centuries into one of the most popular European ancestral peoples.The Celts shows how the idea of this ancient people was recovered by scholars, honed by intellectuals, politicians, and other thinkers of various stripes, and adopted by cultural revivalists and activists as they tried to build European nations and nationalisms during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Long-forgotten, the Celts improbably came to be seen as the ancestors of most western Europeans—and as a pillar of modern national identity in Britain, Ireland, and France.Based on new research conducted across Europe and in the United States, The Celts reveals when and how we came to call much of Europe “Celtic,” why this idea mattered in the past, and why it still matters today, as the tide of nationalism is once again on the rise. Ian Stewart is a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow at the École des hautes études en sciences sociales in Paris. His work has focused particularly on ideas of language, nation, and race in eighteenth and nineteenth-century Britain, Ireland, and Europe. He has also written at length on the late Scottish Enlightenment and is the co-editor of Adam Ferguson's Later Writings: New Letters and an Essay on the French Revolution (Edinburgh University Press, 2023). Sidney Michelini is a post-doctoral researcher working on Ecology, Climate, and Violence at the Peace Research Institute of Frankfurt (PRIF).

It's part mood board, part memory keeper and part style savior—and when done right, it's as functional as it is fashionable.Whether you're island-hopping in Greece or road-tripping on Route 66, here's how to turn your travel outfits into a wearable lookbook that makes packing easier, boosts your style confidence, and levels up your Instagram social game.Why a Travel Lookbook Helps with Packing and StylePacking for a trip can be as overwhelming as choosing your airplane seat. To help make the process a little easier (and hopefully more fun), a travel lookbook is your cheat sheet. When you plan your outfits ahead of time, you avoid overpacking, underdressing, or ending up with five pairs of pants and zero tops that match.A lookbook forces you to think in terms of outfits, not items, so everything in your suitcase pulls its weight. You'll feel more put together, and you won't waste precious vacation time figuring out what to wear. Note: If you're wondering how a lookbook differs from a capsule wardrobe, read this post.If you create pre-trip look book, you'll never again be asking yourself “why did I pack this?”Start with a Mood Board (Pinterest is Your Best Friend)Before you even open your suitcase, create a visual game plan. Pinterest is the MVP here. Start a board for your trip and pin anything that feels right—colors, landscapes, street style and of course, pieces from the 1923 Main Street® collection that reflect your destination's vibe.Heading to Italy? Think neutral tones with a pop of lemon. Bali? Light, breathable layers and earthy textures. A Canadian Rockies getaway? Cozy layers, vintage washes, and a splash of outdoorsy charm A Walt Disney World vacation? Subtle Disney style is your friend. Your mood board becomes a visual style compass. It helps you stay cohesive, focused and inspired when building your lookbook. It's also a lot more fun to scroll for ideas and themes online that to look aimlessly through your closet.Documenting Outfits as Part of the Travel ExperienceFor a lot of travelers, outfits are a key part of the journey. Just like that amazing pastry you had in Paris or the hiking trail you conquered in Utah, your travel wardrobe tells a story. So make sure that you set yourself up to capture it well.Snap a quick mirror shot before heading out, get a street-style pic mid-day, or ask your travel buddy for a few candids. You don't need a professional shoot—natural moments look much better almost every time.To level up your vacation outfit game, use your phone's photo album or an app like Stylebook to save outfit photos and notes (weather, comfort level, what you'd tweak next time). This turns your lookbook into a functional archive for future trips.Tag, Post, Repeat: Boosting Social Engagement with Your LookbookSharing your lookbook on social media isn't just for the ‘gram—it's a way to connect with fellow travelers, inspire future trips and grow your personal brand with truly unique content (yes, even if it's just for fun).To get the most from your lookbook style, mix up your posts. Try a carousel of outfits, make a Reel of your daily looks, or do a “what I packed vs. what I wore” TikTok.Every time you post, you're not just showing off your look—you're contributing to a global style story. And if there's one thing that people love to like on social media, it's travel outfits.Make It Personal, Make It PracticalCreating a travel lookbook isn't about being perfect or matching every trend. It's about feeling confident, having fun and making memories—in style. Whether you're a visual planner or a spontaneous packer, a little forethought goes a long way.So next time you're prepping for a trip, think beyond the selfie. Start a mood board, build your looks around your favorite 1923 Main Street staples, and create a travel lookbook that's not just wearable—but shareable, memorable and 100% you.Shop at 1923 Main StreetThank you for listening to the Travel Style Podcast at 1923MainStreet.com.Shop unique and original travel inspired and subtle Disney travel clothing, including t-shirts, sweatshirt, hoodies and more at 1923 Main Street.Follow along on X, Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook.Thank you for listening and always remember to roam freely and wear boldly.Mike Belobradic and Amelia Belobradic--Media provided by Jamendo

    The gaps in women's healthcare can be addressed by the Gen Z listeners of this podcast! A professional polymath, Michal Morrison has spent her career bridging the past and present, business and impact. Holding degrees in History and English and a graduate degree in Theology, her academic foundation launched her into 10 years in archaeological and historical research across the Middle East and Mediterranean. She has worked for universities, environmental agencies, and a royal family on heritage protection projects and field research in Greece, Italy, the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Ireland, and the Americas. A life-changing accident served as a catalyst for a significant career change, and in 2020 Michal founded her eponymous skincare company, Michal Morrison Inc., where she is proud to partner with global leaders from the fields of biotechnology, longevity, and beauty. Michal Morrison is an award-winning biomimetic skincare brand featuring a patented biotech breakthrough based in 25 years of research in regenerative medicine and stem cell science. As a survivor of a Traumatic Brain Injury, Michal believes that businesses should be catalysts for social change. She is dedicated to not only driving scientific innovation in the beauty industry, but to building a sustainably-minded brand that prioritizes accessibility. She launched her brand's social impact initiative, where they have partnered with One Mind, The Trevor Project, and the COPE Program in support of health equity within Indigenous communities. In episode 587 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out why Michal chose Texas A&M for her undergraduate experience, how her curiosity evolved into archaeological work, what are the unexpected lessons she learned from her time in international heritage work, how a Traumatic Brain Injury changed her career path, how to adapt with purpose, why she took the leap into biotech and beauty, what has been the most rewarding part of being a woman entrepreneur, how her company integrates purpose with profit, gaps in women's healthcare that Gen Z can address, and common fears or hurdles that young entrepreneurs face. Two books Michal recommended: "Raise Capital On Your Own Terms" and "Leap Frog". If they students are experiencing anxiety around life decisions, pick up "Don't Believe Everything You Think". It's been invaluable to Michal in learning how to have more control over her own occasional existential spirals and managing the 'what ifs' of life.
