Guiding Question Why does God allow Christians to suffer, and how should we respond when we face ridicule or rejection for living a godly life? Summary In this compelling sermon, Dr. Robert Lewis explores the often-unspoken reality of Christian suffering—not the kind caused by general hardship, but the unique suffering believers face simply for following Christ. Drawing from 1 Peter 4:12–19, he unpacks why this suffering is inevitable, what purpose it serves, and how we are called to respond. With honesty, humility, and clarity, Dr. Lewis addresses the emotional and spiritual challenges that come with being mocked, misunderstood, or even reviled for the mere name "Christian." Using real-life stories—from Bob Dylan's conversion to personal moments of shame and boldness—he helps believers understand that such trials are not strange but deeply meaningful. They test our faith, shape our character, and identify us with Christ's own suffering. And ultimately, they prepare us for joy—now and in eternity. Whether you're enduring peer pressure, workplace opposition, or quiet loneliness for your faith, this message will challenge and encourage you to rejoice and entrust your soul to a faithful Creator. Outline: Introduction The context of 1 Peter and Peter's own martyrdom. Today's suffering may not be physical—but it is real. The Inevitability of Christian Suffering (v.12) “Fiery ordeal” is not strange—it's to be expected. Christian suffering is promised (2 Tim. 3:12). The “bed of roses syndrome” many young believers fall into. The Reason for Christian Suffering (v.12) It tests our faith and proves its authenticity. Real-life example: a Christian in Peru losing his job over integrity. The Benefits of Christian Suffering (vv.13–14) It aligns us with Christ's suffering. There is joy now and joy to come. It brings power and anointing (Spirit of glory rests on us). The Boundaries of Christian Suffering (vv.15–16) Not all suffering is godly—don't suffer for wrongdoing. Avoid becoming a "troublesome meddler." The Perspective of Judgment (vv.17–18) God's judgment starts with the household of God but extends to unbelievers. Suffering reveals both the saved and the condemned. The Proper Response to Suffering (v.19) Entrust your soul to a faithful Creator. Do what is right—stand firm in faith. Conclusion & Prayer Encouragement for those who've faced rejection for their faith. A call to endure joyfully, just as Christ did. Key Takeaways Christian suffering is not optional; it's promised. Living godly in Christ will bring opposition. Suffering is a test. It reveals whether we truly follow Christ or just admire Him from afar. There is joy in suffering. Rejection aligns us with Jesus and assures us of future glory. Suffering brings spiritual power. When we stand up for our faith, God's Spirit strengthens us. Not all suffering is righteous. We must guard against self-inflicted trouble and judgmental attitudes. Eternal perspective is essential. Our present trials are nothing compared to the judgment awaiting those who reject Christ. Scriptural References 1 Peter 4:12–19 – Main passage on Christian suffering and response. 2 Timothy 3:12 – “All who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.” Hebrews 12:1–2 – Jesus endured suffering for the joy set before Him. Romans 8:1 – “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” Matthew 5:11–12 – “Blessed are you when others revile you… rejoice and be glad.” Recorded 10/26/80

Bitter Babe takes the second half of RA.997, revelling in the fullness of the Latin electronic continuum. As part of our countdown to the 1000th edition of the RA Podcast, a milestone in the 18-year history of Resident Advisor's weekly mix series, we're switching up the usual format. This week, following heady excursions through Lagos, Kampala, Detroit and Chicago, our focus shifts to Latin America—arguably the story in underground electronic music since the pandemic. After years of being all but ignored internationally, the glut of special club sounds coming out of Peru, Brazil, Colombia and beyond have finally received their flowers. Among the movement's great success stories are two artists who exemplify its refreshingly undogmatic energy: Verraco and Bitter Babe. Bitter Babe, naturally, takes the B. As a DJ, she reflects the fullness of the Latin electronic experience—"diverse, messy, emotional, political and full of contradictions," as she says in her interview. Her rollicking rides through guaracha, dembow, cumbia, techno and everything in between are powerful counters to anyone who believes the culture begins and ends with Shakira and Bad Bunny. And, as she'd like to remind everyone, "not every offbeat rhythm with Latin percussion is reggaeton." Skip through the 60-minute mix and you'll hear wildly different rhythms at every juncture. Surely, you might assume, at the expense of flow? And yet enjoyed (as intended) from start to finish, the tunes gel like milk and honey, each silky transition subtly phasing in fresh tones and percussive flourishes. It's fast, feverish and intensely riveting. Find the tracklist and interview at ra.co/podcast/1001
The Medellín maverick opens RA.997 with another mind-altering home run. As part of our countdown to the 1000th edition of the RA Podcast, a milestone in the 18-year history of Resident Advisor's weekly mix series, we're switching up the usual format. This week, following heady excursions through Lagos, Kampala, Detroit and Chicago, our focus shifts to Latin America—arguably the story in underground electronic music since the pandemic. After years of being all but overlooked internationally, the explosion of distinctive club sounds emerging from Peru, Brazil, Colombia and beyond has finally begun to get its due. Among the movement's great success stories are two artists who exemplify its refreshingly undogmatic energy: Verraco and Bitter Babe, and the former handles the A-side of RA.997. Is there a more compelling electronic artist around right now? Both in the studio and behind the decks, the Medellín-based DJ and producer currently sits in that coveted creative sweet spot, where every fresh musical morsel feels like a moment. To bask in any of his singular tracks on VOAM, Timedance and now XL Recordings, is to be bowled over by their rhythmic brilliance, madcap hooks and whirlpool basslines. ("Basic Maneuvers," anyone?) His mix is tough to pin down—a blend of dubby techno, tribal atmospheres, slanted bass and sharp edits. Or, as he puts it in the accompanying interview: “an intersection between dub-infused techno but with some flow, reduced atmospheric tribal, edgy bass cuts, mental emo-tek.” There's plenty of unreleased TraTraTrax material here, alongside tracks from artists like Virginia, A Made Up Sound and a euphoric flip of Ploy's “Ramos.” Slippery, emotional and surgically precise, it's Verraco doing what he does best.

In this episode, social media chef and queen of potatoes, Poppy O'Toole, explores the world of her favourite ingredient, the Potato. Last year, Poppy appeared on Mastermind, choosing the history of the potato as her specialist subject. Let's just say… it didn't quite go to plan. So now, she's joining the team at The Food Programme to fill in the gaps in her knowledge.Along the way, she meets historian Professor Rebecca Earle from the University of Warwick, who explains how potatoes travelled from the Andes to Europe. She visits Lima, a Peruvian restaurant in London, where she speaks with sous chef William Coz about how potatoes remain central to Peruvian cuisine. Dr Stef de Haan from the International Potato Center shares how Peru continues to cultivate thousands of potato varieties.In Suffolk, Poppy visits James Foskett's farm to discover how he grows both organic and conventional potatoes. And she speaks with Dr Jean Beagle Ristaino—known by some as “the Sherlock of Spuds”—about her work investigating the pathogen behind the Irish Potato Famine.The programme includes archive from Mastermind which is co-produced for BBC 2 by Hindsight and Hat Trick.Presented by Poppy O'Toole Produced for BBC Audio in Bristol by Natalie Donovan

In 2017 a strange discovery shocked the world when an alleged humanoid mummy was unearthed in a cave near Nazca, Peru. Possessing strange eye sockets, an elongated skull and three fingers, it quickly mesmerized hopeful believers. But was it actually real? As time passed interest in the controversial mummy faded. But then in 2024, Mexican journalist and UFO enthusiast José Jaime Maussan, presented half a dozen more of these alleged “alien mummies” to Mexico's congress, and a firestorm of interest in the topic erupted again. In this episode I sit down with Will Brown - a former history teacher turned explorer, researcher, and now author of the book “Enigmatic North America: Legends, Oddities and Controversial history" to break down the truth regarding these entities. In this interview, Will shares about his expeditions to Peru to investigate these strange mummies where he attended the press conference, interviewed researchers and saw some of the mummies with his own eyes. Are these "alien mummies" elaborate hoaxes or real hybrid entities? Or, might they be something else altogether? Will breaks it all down.GET WILL'S BOOKJOIN ME ON A TOUR
Inedia is a disquieting and psychologically charged dramatic feature exploring a young woman's descent into a dangerous online fasting movement. Filmed on Salt Spring Island, Inedia tells the story of Cora (Amy Forsyth), a desperate young woman who signs up for an alternative lifestyle community to escape her mounting food allergies. At Sun Haven, they practice “breatharianism,” subsisting on light and air. The group's charismatic leader (Susanne Wuest) and peaceful vibes give Cora hope, but it's not long before she realizes there are tensions beneath the surface. At its core, Inedia is an eerie study of emotional and psychological disturbance and the way it manifests outwardly. Filmmaker Liz Cairns joins Sabrina in the YVR Screen Scene studio to discuss her journey with Inedia and her experience visiting a breatharian retreat in Peru.

This discussion covers the global impact of digital health technologies in making healthcare more sustainable and improving health outcomes. The conversation centers on a fundamental question: should we prioritize building better healthcare systems or cultivating healthier populations? Bogi Eliasen, a sought after keynote speaker and advisor for health leaders globally, stresses the urgency of early intervention, particularly in the context of chronic diseases, to ease the growing burden on healthcare systems. He advocates for a shift from reactive to preventative care, emphasizing the role of digital technologies in enabling this transition and improving outcomes at scale. Key barriers to progress include political and commercial inertia, short-term policy thinking, and the escalating costs of acute care. The interview draws on success stories, such as the Nordic Health 2030 Vision, which aims to redesign healthcare to be more preventative, personalized, and data-driven. Innovative applications of existing technologies in regions like Latin America and Africa are also highlighted, showcasing how local solutions can deliver significant improvements in access and care delivery. The conversation further explores the need to reimagine workforce structures in healthcare and underscores the importance of embedding dignity at every level of care. Looking ahead, the focus is on harnessing advanced technologies holistically and strengthening public-private partnerships to accelerate meaningful, equitable change in global health systems.

From growing up in Peru with her nose buried in books to moving to Europe at 17 and building a global career across consulting, tech, and venture capital, Anais's story is a testament to preparation, resilience, and purpose. Together, Sara and Anais explore why no amount of preparation is ever truly enough, the power of building networks early, and how decisiveness and empathy shape Anais's leadership style.

Rep. Robert Garcia was recently elected as the ranking member of the powerful House Oversight Committee by his fellow House Democrats. He won a top job that usually goes to a senior lawmaker who has spent many years (sometimes decades) in line, dutifully waiting for a turn. And his win might be a sign that the unofficial seniority system of congress is eroding under the weight of young Democrats itching for a bigger seat at the table. This is only his second term in Congress, but Rep. Garcia, who came to the U.S. from Peru as an undocumented immigrant when he was a child, has already shown that he's a skilled communicator who can find an audience online. He and Kara discuss the power of the Oversight Committee, the future of the Democratic Party, the strategy behind investigating Trump family scandals, the Big Beautiful Bill's impact on ICE, and more.

In the third and final episode of our first-ever “Inside the Vatican” Deep Dive series on Pope Leo XIV, we follow his extraordinary journey—from his early years as pastor and formator in northern Peru to the chair of St. Peter. Pope Leo's ministry in Peru was marked by his dedication to empowering lay leaders and nurturing vibrant communities amid challenging circumstances. After returning to the United States, he served briefly as provincial of the Augustinians in the Midwest before being elected prior general, leading the order worldwide from Rome for over a decade. During this time, his bridge-building leadership caught the attention of Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio, who would later become Pope Francis. In 2014, Pope Francis appointed Prevost as bishop of Chiclayo, Peru, where he served for eight years. Before ultimately calling him back to Rome in 2023 to lead the Dicastery for Bishops, Francis made him a cardinal and then elevated him to cardinal-bishop—the highest rank in the College of Cardinals—paving the way for his election as Pope Leo XIV. Many pin their hopes on him to renew a polarized church. Studying Robert Francis Prevost—as a priest and canon lawyer, Augustinian prior general, bishop, cardinal, and Vatican prefect—reveals who he has become, what his priorities might be, and how he may choose to lead the Catholic Church's 1.4 billion faithful today. In this episode, you'll hear from: Arthur Purcaro, O.S.A. – Augustinian priest who worked with Pope Leo XIV in Peru and later served on his order's leadership council when Prevost was Prior General. Christopher White – Author of Pope Leo XIV: Inside the Conclave and the Dawn of a New Papacy (Loyola Press, 2025) and former Vatican correspondent for National Catholic Reporter. Emilce Cuda – Argentine theologian and Secretary of the Pontifical Commission for Latin America. Julia Oseka – Student at Saint Joseph's University in Philadelphia and one of the youngest voting members of the Synod on Synodality. Socorro Cassaro Novoa – Lay leader from Monserrate community in Trujillo, Peru, where Pope Leo XIV helped establish the parish and served as first administrator. Nila Ruiz Gonzales – Lay leader from Santa María community in Trujillo, Peru, where Pope Leo XIV directed the Augustinian formation house and served as pastor.

Shawn Howarth, President and CEO of Excellon Resources (TSXV:EXN) (OTC:EXNRF)(FRA:E4X2), joins me to overview their 4 precious metals projects, with an emphasis on the recent closing in May of the acquisition of the past-producing Mallay Silver Mine, with plans to move this mine back into production by Q2 of 2026. We then review the large exploration potential across their other 3 projects: Tres Cerros, Kilgore, and Silver City. We kick things off having Shawn highlight why the company updated their project profile to focus on the jurisdiction of the Cerro de Pasco area of Peru, when acquiring both the Mallay Silver Mine and Tres Cerros exploration projects in the transaction announced in October of 2024, and closed on in May of this year. Excellon has been a producing silver company in the past, and the management team and board had solid in-county experience in Peru, this transaction seemed like a perfect fit for taking the company to the next level. Mallay was built and operated by Buenaventura from 2012 to 2018, with US$115 million of historical investment. The mine went into care and maintenance in 2018 due to low silver prices (~US$16.00 per ounce) and a change in strategic priorities at Buenaventura. Annual production by Buenaventura (2013 to 2017) averaged 1.3 million ounces of silver, 9,100 tonnes of zinc and 6,500 tonnes of lead. Excellon announced a few months back that it has secured off-take agreements with Glencore for their concentrates, and is working to put a NI 43-101 economic study in place this year, to outline specific metrics for the move back into production. Shawn outlined that their internal studies project a run-rate of 600 tonnes per day of production, producing approximately 2-2.5 million silver equivalent ounces per year, and with a target All-In Sustaining Cost (AISC) of US$17 per AgEq ounce. Shawn points out that they will also be engaging in an aggressive exploration program to demonstrate the resources can be grown and the mine life extended in a substantial way. The Tres Cerros Project is a highly prospective gold-silver exploration project approximately five kilometers northwest of the Mallay Mine. The project's prime area of interest is a 2.5 kilometer by 500 meter corridor of gold-silver mineralization and coincident IP/resistivity anomalies, indicative of a bulk tonnage, high sulfidation epithermal system. Numerous historical grab samples were taken across the 2.5 kilometer fault, which are being analyzed to determine further follow-up exploration work. Kilgore, is an advanced gold project in Idaho with over 1 million ounces of gold delineated in all categories, and the Company is considering bringing in a JV partner to assist with moving this project forward in exploration and further derisking. Silver City, a high-grade epithermal silver district in Saxony, Germany, with a long history of almost 800 years of silver production. Shawn has stated publicly that they are looking at various options, but are entertaining the idea of spinning out this asset into a new European-focused exploration vehicle. Wrapping up we reviewed the industry experience the Excellon management team and board has in both moving projects into production as well as a pedigree of exploration success. We discussed that the company is cashed up after their financing and off-take agreement, to conduct the key work and studies on tap over the next 6-9 months as the company moves toward a production decision.

These mines are primarily located in western states, with Arizona, Utah, New Mexico, Nevada, and Montana accounting for over 99% of domestic copper production. The tariff, announced to counter imports (primarily from Chile, Canada, and Peru, which supply over 90% of US refined copper imports), may incentivize domestic production but won't immediately resolve capacity issues. Posts on X suggest US producers might see fatter margins without significantly increasing output due to the time required to develop new mines (years) and smelting constraints. Current Production Capacity: In 2024, US copper mine production was approximately 1.17 million metric tons, a slight decline from previous years (1.3 million tons in 2022). Major producers like Freeport-McMoRan, Rio Tinto, and Grupo Mexico (Asarco) operate key mines such as Morenci (Arizona, 399,100 metric tons in 2023) and Kennecott (Utah, 169,300 metric tons in 2023). These mines are fully operational, but some face challenges like declining ore grades (averaging 0.4% copper compared to 0.6% in Chile) and labor shortages. : While the US has significant copper reserves (estimated at 48 trillion tons), production is limited by long permitting timelines (often decades), environmental regulations, and insufficient smelting/refining capacity. Only two primary smelters operate in the US (Rio Tinto's Kennecott and Freeport-McMoRan's Miami), and about 30% of mined copper is exported for processing due to this bottleneck.

Father Robert Prevost's early years in Peru shaped his ministry and vision for the church—but few know the brutal reality he encountered there in the 1980s and 1990s. In this second episode of our Inside the Vatican Deep Dive series on Pope Leo XIV, we follow the future pope to northern Peru. He first served in Chulucanas as a canon lawyer, helping establish the new diocese after its elevation from an apostolic prelature. Following a brief return to Rome to defend his doctoral thesis, he came back to Peru as a formator for diocesan and Augustinian seminarians and as a pastor in Trujillo. There, he and his fellow Augustinians ministered amid escalating violence and an approaching dictatorship—an experience that shaped the man who now leads the global Catholic Church. Peru in the late 1980s and early 90s was torn by conflict but also strangely alive with hope. The Shining Path (Sendero Luminoso) and MRTA (Movimiento Revolucionario Túpac Amaru), two violent rebel groups, terrorized communities while economic collapse paved the way for Alberto Fujimori's authoritarian rule. Amid it all, Father Prevost and the Augustinians in Northern Peru pioneered a new model of parish life. They opened a formation house for young men discerning religious life with the order and helped staff parishes, establishing new chapels and parish communities. They divided sprawling parishes into small zones led by lay teams responsible for prayer, outreach and community life. Two women who worked with him describe how this model empowered the local community. His ministry in Peru didn't just shape parish structures; it shaped him—teaching him to lead with humility, courage and deep concern for the marginalized. In this episode, you'll hear from: - John Lydon, O.S.A. – Augustinian priest and friend of Pope Leo, with whom he served in parish and formation ministry in Trujillo, Peru - Socorro Cassaro Novoa – Lay leader from the Monserrate community in Trujillo, Peru, where Pope Leo helped establish Nuestra Señora de Monserrate parish and served from 1992 to 1999 - Nila Ruiz Gonzales – Lay leader from the Santa María community in Trujillo, Peru, where Pope Leo XIV directed the Augustinian formation house and served as pastor in the 1980s and 90s And don't forget to come back for the final episode in this series.

No one expected a pope from the U.S. In this first-ever “Inside the Vatican” Deep Dive series, those who know him best reveal who Pope Leo XIV—“the American pope”—really is. Across three episodes, we trace his vocation from Chicago's South Side through his formative years as an Augustinian friar in the Midwest; training as a canon lawyer in Rome; early ministry in Peru as canon lawyer, priest and formator of future friars and diocesan priests; leadership of the Augustinian Order worldwide; a return to Peru as bishop; and, finally, to the Vatican—first as cardinal and now as pope. In this first episode, host Colleen Dulle takes listeners from the electrifying moment of his announcement as Pope Leo XIV to a discovery uncovered by a genealogist in New Orleans: just two generations ago, census records listed his family as “Black” or “mulatto,” revealing deep Louisiana roots and a history of enslavement. But we consider far more than his family tree. We hear about his childhood, seminary years shaped by Vatican II and insights from his brothers and friends in the Augustinian Order that reveal the deep-listening, community-focused approach that defined the ministry of the man then known as Robert Prevost. In this episode, you'll hear from: Jari Honora, genealogist and family historian at the Historic New Orleans Collection John Merkelis, O.S.A., Augustinian priest and lifelong friend of Pope Leo Arthur Purcaro, O.S.A., Augustinian priest, friend and missionary who worked alongside him in Trujillo, Peru And don't forget to come back for the next two episodes in this series.

***Producer's note: This is a preview of the latest episode of Kuskalla, a trilingual (Quechua-Spanish-English) podcast produced by Red Media and hosted by our comrades Yojana Miraya Oscco and Renzo Aroni. Listen to the full episode on the Kuskalla podcast feed*** In this episode, I talked with Jonathan Ritter, who is the Associate Professor of Ethnomusicology and Chair of the Department of Music at the University of California, Riverside. We discussed his viral Quechua Pumpin song “Karumanta Qamurqani” (I have come from far away). Characterized by a carnivalesque style, Pumpin is often interpreted as testimonial music from the Fajardo province in Ayacucho, a central region deeply impacted by the Peruvian internal armed conflict between the Maoist Shining Path guerrillas and Peruvian state security forces, lasting from 1980 to 2000. This conflict resulted in nearly 70,000 deaths, primarily affecting Quechua-speaking Indigenous peasants in this region, as noted in the 2003 report of Peru's Truth and Reconciliation Commission. In 2001, shortly after the conflict ended, the Truth Commission began its efforts in communities throughout the Pampas River valley in central Ayacucho, where the Pumpin enjoys popularity. A year earlier, Jonathan Ritter started his fieldwork in the village of Colca for his dissertation focused on this music. After mastering the Pumpin guitar, he composed his song “Karumanta Qamurqani” to perform at the newly relaunched Pumpin contest held on the Waswantu plateau in February 2001. This contest had been on hold since 1983 when government security forces shut it down, targeting locals for allegedly supporting the Shining Path guerrillas. In February 2002, he performed his song again, and Asto Producciones filmed it for the first time on video cassette. In this episode, we talk about how Pumpin transforms from traditional music into a powerful form of testimony that recounts wartime experiences and survival in the aftermath. We then examine the lyrics of “Karumanta Qamurqani,” discussing their meanings and the song's reception both during the live performance in Waswantu and after its 2008 upload to YouTube. The response from Peruvians sheds light on issues of race, class, and identity, as well as the reclamation of Quechua language and culture in the post-war context. This episode is dedicated to Alejandro Mendonza Alca from Colca, Jonathan Ritter's mentor and maestro of Pumpin, who sadly passed away a few years ago. For more information on Pumpin music and its history, check out Jonathan Ritter's articles, including “Carnival of Memory: Songs of Protest and Remembrance in the Andes,” published by Smithsonian Folkways Recordings in 2013.
