Det er en afgørende VM-uge for to danske landshold. Håndboldkvinderne tager onsdag aften hul på mellemrunden i Holland, hvor de har taget maksimumpoint med fra gruppespillet. Har Helle Thomsens decimerede landshold spillet over evne, eller er vejen til medaljekampene allerede lagt? Fredag aften er der lodtrækning til fodboldhistoriens største VM-slutrunde næste sommer. Danmark er i bowlen, selvom den endelige kvalifikation ikke er på plads endnu. I dagens afsnit ser vi på både drømme- og mareridtspuljer for Danmark. Vært: Emil Schiønning. Gæster: Fodboldkommentator Andreas Kraul og håndboldekspert Trine Nielsen.

We knew to expect a ton of snow for every game between Collegeville and Holland. We knew to expect Susquehanna would have more than a fighting chance at Christopher Newport. We knew to expect a likely rematch of former OAC rivals. What we didn't know to expect was five road teams winning in the round of 32! Last year, which was the first year the playoff bracket had 40 teams, there was just one road win in the second round. Normal seems to be somewhere in between the two, but way closer to one than five. We should have known that Wheaton had a good chance at Wartburg. The Hansen Ratings even told us so before the game. But the win, nonetheless, was surprising, and we welcome Wheaton coach Jesse Scott to the podcast to talk about it. He discusses what quarterback Mark Forcucci looks like when he is at his best -- helpful info for someone who has only seen him play North Central, a game in which he was battling to get back from injury. He talks about his coaching and leadership philosophy, and which philosophy prof at Wheaton should be credited, or perhaps not, with helping mold that.  Patrick and Greg also go through each of the first round games. There is postgame audio from around a dozen of the 16 advancing teams, and we are grateful to the schools who got these postgame news conferences online or were willing to share them with us so we could bring this audio to you. We also hand out game balls, bring you through the stats of the week and we take your questions in the mailbag segment. That and more in this edition of the D3football.com Around the Nation podcast.

Zera Zheng talks about her career journey; being open to opportunity; the importance of understanding risk; & what she learned, moving from China to Europe.     IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS: [03.36] How Zera began her career, going from University to a graduate program at Kuehne and Nagel, and how it allowed her to learn all about logistics. [07.20] Why it's important to try different things during your career, why Zera felt like she was getting a new challenge every day at Kuehne and Nagel, and the importance of expanding your comfort zone if you want to strengthen your capability. "Don't jump into decisions... Look around and see what could keep you interested... Success starts with passion." [10.42] How Zera came to specialize in Health, Safety, Security, and Environment. "As a graduate, you don't really know what each department is doing, you have to be open to the opportunity… That knowledge and experience, the things I did in the past, have shaped who I am now." [12.45] Zera's move to A.P. Moller–Maersk, the types of projects she works on now, and the importance of understanding, and responding to risk. [17.50] Why Zera took an opportunity to move from China to Holland, the pressures she felt, and the support she received to help make it happen. "We often hear that the logistics industry is men's work and, especially for a security role – we see men with a background from the military or police. It was rare to offer this opportunity to an Asian woman." [27.37] What Zera's 'industry rising star' award win means to her. [29.21] Zera's experience speaking at forums and on panels, and her advice for other women, from leaning into making mistakes to taking the time to practice. "I still remember making a mistake as a child, when I couldn't speak on stage… It reminds me of where I was to who I am now." [34.22] The mentors that have made an impact on Zera's life and career, and the scientist who inspires her. [38.00] The future for Zera.   RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED:   You can connect with Zera over on LinkedIn.

Für Michael hat es krankheitsbedingt noch nicht gereicht für einen Einsatz in der Startelf so das unser aller Cheftrainer Ewald kurzfristig auf dem Transfermarkt aktiv geworden ist . Arnd Zeigler ist heute im neuen Sechzehner mit dabei. Danke Arnd !!!Die beiden blicken zurück auf eine Woche bester Fussballunterhaltung : Arsenal - Bayern, Last Minute Tore in der Bundesliga, Freistoss Tricks der Stuttgarter und Gladbach zurück in der Erfolgspur. Wann ist der richtige Zeitpunkt für einen Trainerwechsel und Ewald erinnert sich an eine Erfahrung als Kölner Trainer bei einem Testspiel in Holland, vergleichbar mit den Erlebnissen der Stuttgarter Fans.

Series: SEVEN

In Deventer siegt der VfB unter widrigen Umständen klar, in Hamburg legt er sich mal wieder selbst einen rein. Wir hätten ja in dieser Folge relativ entspannt über einen deutlichen Auswärtssieg in Europa und ein ärgerliches, aber verkraftbares Unentschieden in Hamburg reden können. Stattdessen reden wir nicht nur über vier Tore, sondern auch über die freidrehenden Behörden in Deventer, schwedische Rotzlöffel und einen grandios verkackten (pardon!) Freistoß, der uns alle drei Punkte kostet. Wir besprechen, was der VfB in der Europa League gut machte, und was in Hamburg zum Erfolg fehlte - und wie viel Rotation gute Rotation ist. Außerdem widmen wir uns dem anstehenden Pokalspiel in Bochum und blicken auf den Südschlager, der nach dem Punktverlust in Hamburg etwas unpassend kommt.

Story Radio interviews Mathew Gostelow, the editor of Silent Screams: An Anthology of Quiet Horror, about trends in the horror genre, the meaning of 'quiet horror', the child's perspective in horror writing, contemporary vs historical fiction and many other topics such as Twin Peaks and Frankenstein. We listen to a reading of 'Barnabas Calstock's Last Wish' by the author Terry Holland (Trigger warning: this story contains references to war and violence that some listeners may find disturbing). About Mathew GostelowMathew Gostelow haunts a leafy suburb of Birmingham, UK. His CV is a chaotic patchwork quilt, including journalism, pheasant farming, catering, and marketing. Mat's taste in art, music, film, and literature is equally eclectic, although he tends to gravitate towards anything with a creepy, dreamy aesthetic. If you catch him staring intently into the middle distance, Mat is either thinking about Twin Peaks or cooked breakfasts. Some days he wakes early and scribbles strange tales. Mat has written several books, including two speculative short story collections entitled An Ill-Stitched Menagerie and See My Breath Dance Ghostly, and a novella-in-flash; Dantalion is a Quiet Place. Mat has also co-written a horror-thriller novella called Watcher with his friend JP Relph, and edited an anthology of quiet horror short stories, titled Silent Screams.He has been nominated for the Pushcart Prize, Best of the Net, and Best Microfiction.

251201PC Krieg vor dem StadionMensch Mahler am 01.12.2025Früher habe ich gesagt: Geht mit eurem Frust ins Stadion, bevor ihr im Straßenverkehr aufeinander losgeht oder Euch im Krieg totschießt. Das ist leider Schnee von gestern.Drei Vorfälle aus jüngster Zeit: VfB Fans werden an der serbischen Grenze abgefangen und nach Hause geschickt, als sie mit gültigen Tickets zum Auswärtsspiel in der Europa-League zu Roter Stern Belgrad reisen wollen. Grundlos. Fans von Eintracht Frankfurt, die Frankfurt als ihren Wohnsitz angeben, erhalten keine Tickets zum Auswärtsspiel in Neapel.VfB – Fans, die nach Deventer, Holland zum Auswärtsspiel gegen die Go-Ahead Eagles anreisen, werden , als sie aus den Bussen aussteigen, von der Polizei niedergeknüppelt und in käfigartige Räume gesperrt, um zum Teil erst am nächsten Morgen abgeschoben zu werden.Auf Nachfrage erklärt die holländische Polizei, man habe wegen der großen Anzahl von Fans aus Stuttgart – es waren knapp 500 – Sicherheitsbedenken gehabt und präventiv gehandelt, um Krawallen vorzubeugen.Angelo Stiller, genialer Mittelfeldregisseur beim VfB und in der Nationalmannschaft, wird auf dem Spielfeld angepöbelt und rassistisch beleidigt. Stiller hat eine große Nase und eine ungewöhnliche Oberlippe. Die Spekulationen zur Ursache reichen von der Lippen-Kiefer-Gaumenspalte über Verletzungen bis hin zu einem Unfall und dem dadurch notwendigen operativen Eingriff. Beim Stand von 3:0 zugunsten des VfB Stuttgart löste der 29 Jahre alte Schwede Edvardsen eine Rudelbildung aus, als er sich im Anschluss an ein Foul über die Nase seines Gegenspielers Angelo Stiller lustig machte. Er wurde vom Verein mit einer symbolischen Geldstrafe belegt. Der VfB schenkte den Go Ahead Eagles noch eine ein und schiss die Adler mit 4:0 aus dem Horst.Fazit: Was in Afrika oder Mittel- und Südamerika üblich ist, macht sich jetzt auch in Europa breit. Der europäische Vereinsfußball geht einem Desaster entgegen. Und die UEFA schweigt und kassiert brav ihr Geld von den nationalistischen und rassistischen Staaten. Schlicht ein Skandal.

Zoe Booth speaks with Gerard Holland, CEO of the Page Research Centre and a founding member of the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship. Together they explore how foreign funding is shaping Australia's energy policy, what's driving the rising cost of living, and why ideological commitments to renewables may be undermining the country's economic and strategic resilience. Holland argues that Australia's transition to green energy has been distorted by international interests, bad economics, and an aversion to politically unpopular technologies like nuclear power. Drawing on original research submitted to a federal Senate inquiry, he makes the case for a return to energy realism—and warns that unless we regain control of our policy decisions, Australia's prosperity and security may be at risk.

Welcome back, my fellow creatives!Yup, I'm back to looking at the first five pages of variousstories, for those five pages can make or break the engagement of a reader--or an agent. So, let's scope out the stories of others to see how they hook anaudience!Honestly, I've a few gripes here. For one, I really don't like second-person for a pov. Just because one can do a thing doesn't mean one should. It's also jarring because the book doesn't stay in second-person; only the prologue talks to readers like they are the protagonist Holland finding the mysterious theater with the mysterious college class about folklore. Don't get me wrong: the theater's beautifully described, and Garber knows how to build up tension by using the present tense for Holland — well, the reader — waiting for that class to start. But it's a weird shift putting readers into Holland's shoes for three pages before yanking them out for a more traditional third-person in the first chapter. The true first chapter starts with a date and some exposition about this too-perfect guy that Holland is seeing, aaaaand I was already getting a bit bored when my reading ended with her discovering a poster mentioned in her mysterious folklore class.There's a lot of promise here with the magical underworld of L.A., and fans of Garber are likely accustomed to her writing quirks to be ready for pov shifts and meet-cute exposition. But the magic of that theater in the prologue felt like a bait-and-switch. It can be tough to know when a story truly begins. It feels like Garber considers Holland's date and search for something she heard about in the folklore class to be the start of the story...but if readers don't know about the magic of the class, then they won't understand Holland's determination to do that search. The prologue feels like a cheat to cover this, and I'm just not a fan.I'm taking December off from blogging and podcasting, so we'll have to see what stories await us in the new year! Stay tuned!And what will we discover in the next story's five pages?We'll have to wait and see. xxxxRead on, share on, and write on, my friends!

We started off this week by paying tribute to the activist, actress, and author, Margaretta D'Arcy, who passed away last Sunday.   Tributes were paid from right across the political spectrum, and we also heard from some key people involved in activism, political representatives, and people from the Arts as well. We started off by hearing from Joe Coughlan who knew her from Woodquay.   ​The City Council budget was also passed this week, with one businessman very disillusioned by the 3% increase in commercial rates and by increases to parking charges in the city. Brendan Holland, owner of Holland's shop in town, said that it is unthinkable to consider a commercial rates increase, and the fact that a 13% increase was even in the conversation is beggars belief.   ​Cash is very much King. We heard about the Access to Cash legislation which has come into force. We debated this with Independent Ireland Deputy Michael Fitzmaurice. He weighed up the pros and cons of this legislation, adding that there is a lot of work to do in terms of getting access to ATMs in smaller villages.   ​The maroon and white rejoiced as a €3 billion funding investment in infrastructure was allocated for Galway this week. Whether it isthe City Ring Road getting a billion, also the Western Rail Corridor and Bus Connects it was a significant investment in the NDP. Other projects being earmarked for progression, included the Claregalway Bypass and the Athenry Inner Relief Road.   We discussed that on the programme with a number of relevant stakeholders, including the Galway Commuter Coalition, one of the householders of the Ring Road route who have been left in limbo for the past 15 years, and representative of Western Rail Corridor Group, Councillor Peter Feeney.

Et dannebrog syet af hvide stofrester farvet med ægte menstruationsblod er omdrejningspunktet for et initiativ, der skal sætte fokus på håndboldkvinder, som var blevet pålagt at spille i hvide shorts til VM-slutrunden i Tyskland og Holland. Baggrunden er, at Danmark, Norge og Sverige i fællesskab har bedt Det Internationale Håndboldforbund (IHF) om at fjerne kravet om, at kvindehold spiller i hvide shorts. Et krav, der i begyndelsen blev afvist. Nu har Det Internationale Håndboldforbund dog tilladt, at håndboldkvinderne spiller i mørke shorts, og torsdag spillede det danske kvindelandshold netop i røde shorts, da de mødte Japan. Sportschefen for Dansk Håndbold, Morten Henriksen, siger til TV 2, at han forventer, at Danmark kan gå gennem hele VM-slutrunden uden at spille i hvide shorts. Har initiativet virket? Eller har Cathrine Wichmand, der er direktør i Flow Intimates og initiativtager til netop den her kampagne, sat fokus på noget, som ikke længere er et problem?

The Dean's List with Host Dean Bowen – Facing religious persecution under Elizabeth I and James I, English separatists risked imprisonment, betrayal, and exile to follow their faith. Led by figures like William Brewster, they endured trials, failed escapes, and family separations before finally reaching Holland, setting the stage for a daring journey to the New World...

Send us a textGUEST: DR. JERRY NEWCOMBE, producer, The Pilgrims documentaryA small group of biblical Christians known as the the Pilgrims are widely considered to be “the founders of America”.Numbering only about 400-500 souls, they had fled religious persecution in England to settle in Holland. But after ten years there, they decided on another move across the Atlantic Ocean to an unknown land that would become the United States.About 50 Pilgrims were on the first vessel called The Mayflower, arriving in modern-day Cape Cod in Massachusetts in November 1620. One year later in November 1621, after a brutal winter in which many of them died, they celebrated a bountiful harvest with local Indians who had helped them in what has become known as the first Thanksgiving.The Pilgrims and their biblical beliefs which led directly to the principles of the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution 150 years have been mostly forgotten by the majority of our population. “Separation of church and state” is a sacrament of mainstream society today…but it wasn't to the Pilgrims. They said they came to America “for the glory of God and the advancement of the Christian faith.”Dr. Jerry Newcombe, producer of the documentary film, The Pilgrims, joins us this Thanksgiving weekend on The Christian Worldview to discuss the Pilgrims' story and what they believed and lived by. For in them we have an example for how we can live in our pilgrimage in a contrary world.-----------------------PROGRAM NOTES:Available for a donation of any amount: The Pilgrims DVD celebrates the journey of a small group of outcasts in their quest for religious freedom. Unlike revisionist history, you will discover the true story of the men and women who came to these shores “for the glory of God and the advancement of the Christian faith.”57 mins, DVD.  Also available for streaming from Coral Ridge Ministries.

Happy Thanksgiving! As you gather with family and friends today, we hope your hearts are filled with gratitude to God for His many blessings. While Thanksgiving is a treasured tradition for us, its roots stretch back more than 4 centuries. Who gathered at that first feast in 1621? Why were they there? And what exactly were they giving thanks for?Let's take a closer look at the remarkable story of the Pilgrims—one of enduring faith, sacrifice, and God's gracious provision.Who Were the Pilgrims?Most of us learned in grade school that the Plymouth Colony—located in present-day Massachusetts—was founded in 1620 by a group we know as the Pilgrims. These settlers, also called Separatists, longed to break away entirely from the Church of England, believing it had drifted from biblical teaching. Their commitment to worship according to Scripture set them on a courageous journey toward religious freedom.Nearby, the Puritans would establish the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1630. While they shared many beliefs with the Pilgrims, their approach differed. The Puritans remained within the Church of England, seeking to reform it from within. Though their strategies diverged, the stories of these two groups are deeply intertwined in the early chapters of American history.The Pilgrims faced significant persecution in England for worshiping outside the established church. Holding fast to the Bible as their ultimate authority made them targets. In 1609, seeking refuge, they fled to Leiden, Holland. Yet even there, challenges persisted—some were arrested, and the freedom they sought still felt out of reach.Recognizing Europe would not offer the spiritual liberty they longed for, they made a bold and costly decision: to sail to the New World. About 120 men, women, and children boarded the Mayflower. While some passengers—known as “adventurers”—joined the voyage for economic opportunity, the Pilgrims' primary aim was clear: to worship freely and build a life rooted firmly in their faith.Hardship Upon ArrivalTheir journey across the Atlantic was long and brutal. Delays meant they arrived in November—not summer—leaving no time to plant crops. That first winter, remembered as “the starving time,” was devastating. Nearly half the group died from disease and lack of food.Still, in God's providence, the Pilgrims formed a gracious relationship with local Native Americans. A Native American named Squanto—who had learned English years earlier—became a critical ally. He taught them how to plant corn, where to fish, and how to survive in an unfamiliar land. His guidance helped bring the colony through that difficult first year.With Squanto's help, the Pilgrims planted crops in the spring of 1621 and harvested enough that fall to sustain their small community. To honor God for His provision, they invited their Native American neighbors to join them in a feast of thanksgiving.By that point, only 22 men, four married women, and 25 teenagers and children remained from the original group. Their guests nearly doubled the gathering, bringing food and friendship—resulting in what may have been America's first potluck meal. Together, they celebrated survival, provision, and the kindness of God expressed through unexpected relationships.A Legacy of FaithYears later, Plymouth's longtime governor, William Bradford, reflected on their experience in Of Plymouth Plantation, quoting Hebrews 11:13–16 to describe the Pilgrims' faith:“All these people were still living by faith when they died… They were looking for a country of their own… longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.”For the Pilgrims, this passage captured the heart of their journey. They understood that their true home was not a piece of land or a colony—they belonged to God. Their courage, perseverance, and gratitude were expressions of that eternal hope.As we celebrate Thanksgiving today, may we remember this story of faith under pressure, resilience in hardship, and gratitude rooted in God's unwavering provision. The freedoms we enjoy—especially the freedom to worship—come through the sacrifices of those who came before us.From all of us at FaithFi, we wish you a warm, joyful, and grace-filled Thanksgiving. May your day be filled with gratitude for God's goodness and confidence in His faithful care.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My question is about the so-called ‘Dollar 2.0' and the new S.1582 bill.

I sit down with author and teacher David A. Holland, whose devotional Praying Grace has now reached hundreds of thousands of readers. Many of you discovered him through his appearance in TBN's Praise on the Revelation in the Past? episode and YouTube video as well as the God With Us documentary, and this conversation goes even deeper. David opens up about growing up in a world shaped by The Late Great Planet Earth, how fear-based eschatology shaped his childhood, and how a life-changing encounter with the message of grace completely transformed his walk with God. He shares the story of moving from shame, striving, and constant self-examination to discovering the finished work of Christ and learning to pray from victory instead of toward it.We also talk about his surprising path to national visibility, the behind-the-scenes story of how Matt Crouch discovered his book, and the theological journey that led him away from dispensationalism toward a hopeful, expanding vision of the Kingdom of God. David discusses his upcoming book Now? Or Not Yet?, his insights into Matthew 24, his friendship with Dudley Hall, and why he believes the church still has a long future filled with purpose. It was one of the most encouraging and heartfelt conversations I've had on the podcast, and I'm excited to share it with you.David A.

Send us a textThanksgiving Day as a national holiday in America dates back to 1863 when President Abraham Lincoln proclaim the 4th Thursday in November a yearly day of thanks.  "It has seemed to me fit and proper that they should be solemnly, reverently, and gratefully acknowledged as with one heart and one voice by the whole American people. I do, therefore, invite my fellow-citizens in every part of the United States, and also those who are at sea and those who are sojourning in foreign lands, to set apart and observe the last Thursday of November next as a Day of Thanksgiving and Praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the heavens."However the tradition of giving thanks to God for his providential care goes back to the Pilgrims who had come over from Holland on the Mayflower. Governor Bradford reports that Plymouth had been stricken with a severe drought. "Upon which," said William Bradford "they set apart a solemn day of humiliation, to seek the Lord by humble and fervent prayer, in this great distress." That same evening it began "to rain with such sweet and gentle showers as gave them cause of rejoicing and blessing God… For which mercy, in time convenient, they also set apart a day of thanksgiving." They had lived for 10 years in Holland to escape religious persecution from King James toward the Separatists. There they had contact with Anabaptist and Sephardic Jews who observed a feast of thanks known as Sukkot  (Feast of Tabernacles or booths). Our Thanksgiving festival probably goes alway to the Torah indirectly through the Pilgrims having such a feast in 1621. George Webb records a prayer like the one they would have offered on that November 29.O Lord our God and heavenly Father, which of Thy unspeakable mercy towards us, hast provided meate and drinke for the nourishment of our weake bodies. Grant us peace to use them reverently, as from Thy hands, with thankful hearts: let Thy blessing rest upon these Thy good creatures, to our comfort and sustentation: and grant we humbly beseech Thee, good Lord, that as we doe hunger and thirst for this food of our bodies, so our soules may earnestly long after the food of eternal life, through Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour, Amen. George Webb, "Short direction for the daily exercise of the Christian," London 1625.

In this Thanksgiving Day episode, Mike reflects on the holiday, family, and the evolving character of Traverse City. It's a bittersweet year—his family's first Thanksgiving without his dad—but also a moment to appreciate traditions, good food, and time spent together. From recent crime stories to long-standing local quirks, Mike explores whether Traverse City still feels like the small town he grew up in. He shares personal stories, local history, neighborhood breakdowns, and observations about everything from fast food failures to the layout of the airport and high schools. Topics Covered Thanksgiving Reflections Sending well-wishes to listeners celebrating the holiday. The first Thanksgiving without Mike's dad and the tradition of leaving an empty chair at the table. Is Traverse City Still a Small Town? Recent unusual crime events: The Walmart stabbing last summer. A fatal parking-deck shooting involving car break-ins. An attempted abduction at the Meijer gas station. Why these big incidents still feel like “small-town news.” Population & Geography 2020 Census: About 16,000 people inside Traverse City limits. Metro area: ~153,000 across four counties (Grand Traverse, Leelanau, Benzie, Kalkaska). Mike's spot just outside the city—technically East Bay Township, but “still Traverse City” in daily life. Neighborhoods & Areas Mentioned Downtown District Traverse Heights Old Town Central Neighborhoods Greilickville Acme / Williamsburg “Miracle Mile” – hotels and tourist strip on the bay Tourism & Seasons Summer vs. winter crowds Winter visitors: snowmobilers, skiers, ice fishermen Bars downtown still feel local and familiar in the off-season Traverse City Schools Current schools: Central, West, Traverse City High School (Mavericks), plus Catholic Central. Stories about the old buildings, snow-exposed walkways, and campus redesigns. The near-identical design of TC West and the Columbine High School campus. Airports & Travel Cherry Capital Airport still feels small—Mike knows most of the airline and TSA staff. No Amtrak service in Traverse City yet; nearest connections are Grand Rapids or Holland. Mike's go-to workaround: driving to New Buffalo to catch the train to Chicago. Parking & Downtown Life Legacy of parking meters (now digital), plus multiple parking decks. Cherry Festival setup: rides, games, food stands—including local favorite Gibby Fries. Arnold Amusements (based in Acme) runs many Michigan carnivals.

Many Americans do not fully know the faith-filled story behind the nation’s origins. In today's prayer and devotional, Lynette Kittle shares how long before the United States existed, a small group of Christian separatists—the Pilgrims—risked everything to worship Jesus freely and to practice their faith without fear. Their journey, grounded in prayer, Scripture, and dependence on God, laid a foundation that ultimately influenced the birth of a nation built on biblical principles. Seeking to follow Christ according to their convictions, the Pilgrims left England due to persecution and later departed Holland when secular influences threatened their children’s faith. Their bold voyage across the Atlantic in 1620 was not a pursuit of comfort but a pursuit of the freedom to worship God in truth and sincerity. America’s early identity was shaped through this legacy of faith, humility, and thanksgiving. Even before our nation was formed, colonial leaders called for days of prayer, fasting, and gratitude to God. Later, Presidents Washington, Adams, and Madison continued this practice, acknowledging that national blessings flow from the hand of Almighty God. Eventually, Thanksgiving became a national holiday through the persistence of Sarah Josepha Hale, who believed a national day of gratitude was a “pledge of Christian faith in God.” Today, the same call remains: remember what God has done, give Him thanks, and pray for America to remain anchored in His truth. Today's Bible Reading:“Give praise to the Lord, proclaim His name; make known among the nations what He has done.” – Psalm 105:1 Takeaway Truths America’s earliest foundations were shaped by believers seeking freedom to worship God. Thanksgiving has deep Christian roots tied to prayer, humility, and national gratitude. God calls His people to remember His works and proclaim His faithfulness to the nations. We can pray for America to return to biblical truth and godly leadership. Let’s Pray Dear Father,We lift our voices to praise and thank You for America. We acknowledge that it was Your hand that guided the Pilgrims to a new land where they could worship Christ freely. Thank You for establishing this nation on godly principles and granting us the blessing of religious liberty. Remind us this Thanksgiving of the believers who trusted You enough to leave everything behind for the sake of Your glory. Strengthen and restore America’s spiritual foundation. Lead our nation’s leaders to return to Your Word, Your truth, and Your righteousness. Above all, thank You for the gift of Salvation through Jesus Christ—undeserved, unearned, and freely given. May our hearts remain humble and full of gratitude for all You have done. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
