For over 30 years, Ken Isaacs has (literally) run into the fires of war, genocide, and natural disaster around the world. Serving with Samaritan's Purse alongside my dad, Ken has seen and experienced evil so total, contrasted by miracles that have no explanation outside of the hand of God. Today on Fearless Ken shares the heart behind his new book—Running to the Fire—plus what led him to a life spent serving the Lord and going where God has called, even when there are no roads. From witnessing genocide in Rwanda to negotiating with warlords in Afghanistan, Ken talks about some of the experiences that have shaped a life spent saying yes to God. But in addition to those unbelievable stories, Ken also shares the childhood experiences that prepared his heart for a life spent on mission, the struggles missionary families often face, and why he's never afraid to lead with the Gospel, even in the most hostile of environments. Ken's life of obedience should inspire each of us to trust God and His timing, whether we're called to serve across the world or simply across the hallway of our own homes. Find Ken's new book here: https://www.amazon.com/Running-Fire-Helping-Jesus-Name/dp/083078845X.

Canada and the island of Saint Lucia celebrate a Thanksgiving holiday in October. Liberia sets aside a day for giving thanks at the beginning of November, while the US and Australia mark the annual holiday at the end of the month. Other countries, including the United Kingdom, Brazil, Rwanda, and the Philippines, have unofficial days to foster gratitude. There’s something powerful about a nation collectively expressing gratitude. It’s a picture we see when King David assembled the nation of Israel to give thanks to God for His presence, protection, and promises. The celebration marked the return of the “ark of God” (1 Chronicles 16:1). The people rejoiced that the ark, a symbol of God’s presence with them, was in Jerusalem. As David led Israel in praise, he reminded them of God’s protection as the nation conquered the land of Canaan (vv.18-22) and celebrated God’s faithfulness to fulfill His promises (v. 15). If you celebrate a Thanksgiving holiday with friends and family, consider making it a gratitude gathering and reflecting together on the ways you’ve experienced God’s presence, protection, and promises over the past year. Whether or not you live in a country that officially celebrates Thanksgiving, each of us can take time to express gratitude to the “Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever” (v. 34).

Peace Through Business: How Women in Rwanda and Afghanistan Are Rebuilding Nations Through Entrepreneurship In this special episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, I continue our series spotlighting Peace Through Business, a remarkable program empowering women entrepreneurs in Afghanistan, Rwanda, and beyond. The stories are profound, the impact undeniable, and the lessons universal: when women rise, entire nations begin to heal and prosper. As a corporate anthropologist and Blue Ocean Strategist, I want to remind us at the start: “When you invest in a woman entrepreneur, you invest in her family, her community, and her country's future.” This conversation brings together Monica Smiley, publisher of Enterprising Women Magazine; Chantal Munanayire, Peace Through Business Program Director for Rwanda, Uganda, Canada, and the UK; and Manisha Wafeq, who leads the Afghanistan initiative. Each share not only how the program works but how it transforms lives — economically, socially, and spiritually. Creating Peace Through Business When Enterprising Women Foundation assumed stewardship of Peace Through Business in 2024, it became the natural extension of its mission to empower women globally. Monica Smiley explains that Enterprising Women began 25 years ago as a publication to celebrate women entrepreneurs but soon evolved into a global movement. “About 12 years ago,” she recalls, “we launched the Enterprising Women Foundation to mentor girls in underserved communities across 30 U.S. cities. Then, by inheriting the Peace Through Business program, we broadened our mission — from helping American women entrepreneurs to supporting women rebuilding countries after conflict.” Originally founded by Dr. Terry Neese at the request of former First Lady Laura Bush, the Peace Through Business program provides an intensive education in entrepreneurship, leadership, and civic responsibility. It began in Afghanistan, where women were often excluded from public life, and expanded into Rwanda, a country rebuilding its social and economic fabric after the 1994 genocide. Monica remembers traveling to Rwanda in 2014 and again in 2018. “The transformation in just four years was stunning,” she says. “There were new hotels, a thriving convention center, and a new sense of hope. Women who once dreamed of a single business now run two or three. They are not waiting to be rescued — they are building the future themselves.” Chantal's Journey: From Survivor to Mentor Few embody that spirit more than Chantal Munanayire. A survivor of Rwanda's genocide, Chantal rebuilt her life — and her country — one business at a time. In 2009, she broke barriers by opening the first woman-owned car repair and paint shop in Kigali, the capital city. “When I began, I didn't even know what a business plan was,” she says with a laugh. “I was passionate but directionless. Through Peace Through Business, I learned to plan, to lead, and to see my company as separate from myself. That gave me freedom — and power.” Today, Chantal runs the program across several countries and has mentored hundreds of women. “The women who come to us are determined but often afraid,” she explains. “We teach them to turn that fear into focus. Once they succeed, they return to mentor others. That's how we build a sisterhood.” She shares stories of women who began as small vendors and now own supermarkets, or dairy farmers who built shopping centers. “When one woman thrives, she brings ten others along,” Chantal says. “That's how you build a country.” Education, Mentorship, and Advocacy Peace Through Business unfolds in three powerful stages: Education– Ten weeks of in-country classes covering marketing, finance, leadership, and business planning. Leadership Development– A cultural and professional exchange in the U.S., where top graduates attend the Enterprising Women Conference to meet mentors and global leaders. Pay It Forward– Graduates return home to mentor others, advocate for policy reform, and expand the reach of women in leadership. As Manisha Wafeq explains, “This is not a one-week seminar. It's a life-changing journey. Our women become educators, activists, and community builders. They learn that business is not only about profit — it's about peace. And after they graduate, they pay their knowledge forward to other women and join our alumni association.” A Call to Action: Supporting Women Who Change the World The episode closes with a powerful reflection from Monica and Andi: sustainable change requires participation. The program's impact depends on mentorship, funding, and global awareness. “This is a Blue Ocean in action,” says Andi Simon. “These women are not competing in crowded markets. They're creating new ones — new industries, new opportunities, new futures.” Monica adds, “We've given the Enterprising Women of the Year award to one Afghan and one Rwandan woman annually for nearly two decades. Seeing them stand on stage in front of hundreds of cheering peers brings me to tears every time. But we need more hands and hearts to keep the program thriving.” Every contribution — financial or personal — helps sustain the work. Donations go directly to scholarships, training, and travel for participants. Mentors provide guidance and connection, bridging continents through compassion and shared purpose. To learn more or contribute, visit EnterprisingWomenFoundation.org. Why These Stories Matter For Andi Simon, this episode isn't just another interview — it's a reflection of what anthropology teaches us about change: that transformation begins when people reimagine what's possible. “Change happens,” Andi concludes, “when we stop waiting for permission and start creating possibilities. These women are doing exactly that. They're rewriting the story of what it means to lead, to heal, and to build peace through business.” Listen in to our YouTube Video:

En RDC, des combats ont repris depuis quelques jours dans l'Est du pays, mais le gouvernement refuse de dramatiser. « Les indicateurs sur le retrait des troupes rwandaises de notre territoire ne sont pas encore visibles, mais nous sommes confiants qu'on va atteindre l'objectif de la paix », affirme le vice-Premier ministre congolais Jacquemain Shabani. De passage à Paris, Jacquemain Shabani, qui est aussi ministre de l'Intérieur, de la sécurité et de la décentralisation, s'exprime aussi sur ce qu'il appelle « le génocide perpétré dans l'Est du Congo depuis 30 ans ». Il répond aux questions de Patient Ligodi et Christophe Boisbouvier. RFI : Monsieur le vice-Premier ministre Jacquemin Shabani, le 27 juin dernier, le Congo et le Rwanda ont signé à Washington un accord de paix. Mais depuis une semaine, les combats reprennent au Nord et au Sud Kivu. Est-ce à dire que la guerre a recommencé ?   Jacquemin Shabani : Je ne pourrais pas dire que la guerre a recommencé, parce qu'effectivement, il y a eu cet accord de paix signé à Washington. Il y a eu aussi une déclaration de principe signée à Doha et des mesures de confiance qui vont être mises en exécution dans le prochain accord qui va être signé aussi là-bas. Je crois qu'il faut arriver à considérer que nous sommes dans un processus qui a pour objectif de mettre en place une paix dans un contexte de conflit assez difficile. Le plus important pour nous tous, c'est de retenir le fait qu'il y a un processus de paix enclenché avec des initiatives effectivement à Washington, comme vous l'avez souligné, mais aussi à Doha, qui sont en cours et qui vont nécessairement se finaliser par une paix durable. Parce que c'est ça, l'objectif.   Et la prise, il y a quelques jours, par les rebelles du M23 de la localité de Nzibira, au Sud Kivu. Quelle est votre réaction ?   Ça entre dans le cadre de ce que vous venez de souligner. Et il y a un mécanisme mis en place à Washington, et même à Doha, de surveillance de tous ces incidents. Et dans ce contexte-là, toutes ces questions vont trouver des règlements.  À lire aussiEst de la RDC: l'AFC/M23 en quête de gains territoriaux autour de Shabunda   Recrutement de policiers, recrutement de magistrats. Le M23 s'enracine dans les deux territoires du Nord-Kivu et du Sud-Kivu. Il commence même à délivrer des documents administratifs, ce qui, pour le ministre de l'Intérieur et de la sécurité que vous êtes, doit être difficile à supporter. Est-ce que ce n'est pas le signe que le M23 veut s'installer dans la durée ?   Le M23 est dans effectivement des initiatives que je pourrais qualifier de distraction. Mais je reviens encore à ce que je vous ai dit au début, nous sommes avec le M23 à Doha en discussion. Le M23, effectivement, s'invite à la mise en place d'une administration parallèle dans le cadre de sa rébellion. Mais tout ça est pris en charge aussi dans l'initiative de Doha. Et si vous lisez la déclaration de principe que le gouvernement a signée avec le M23, nous identifions des procédures de règlement de toutes ces situations malencontreuses mises en œuvre par le M23. Tout ça est pris en charge dans la déclaration de principe, avec une projection sur un accord de paix qui va nous permettre de rétablir l'État dans sa juste position. Et on identifie ça dans la restauration de l'autorité de l'État après la cessation du conflit.   Selon un communiqué conjoint que vous avez signé le 24 septembre avec le Rwanda, vos deux pays doivent mettre en œuvre, à partir de ce 1ᵉʳ octobre, des mesures de sécurité. Mais il y a quelques jours, aux Nations-Unies, le président Tshisekedi a accusé son homologue rwandais, Paul Kagamé, de manœuvres pour retarder la paix.   Oui, parce que les indicateurs sur le processus de retrait, malheureusement, ne sont pas encore visibles. Et pourtant, nous avons signé à Washington. Donc, je crois que le discours du chef de l'État, Félix Tshisekedi, est une pression de plus qui permette à ce que ces forces négatives se retirent du territoire congolais.   Donc en fait, ça n'avance pas ?  Si c'est votre conclusion, elle est la vôtre. Nous, nous sommes dans un processus et nous sommes engagés à le faire avancer. Et nous sommes confiants que la paix est un objectif que nous allons atteindre, et nous travaillons pour cela.   À la tribune de l'ONU, le 23 septembre, le président Tshisekedi a lancé un appel solennel pour la reconnaissance du génocide des Congolais dans l'Est de votre pays. Réponse du ministre rwandais des Affaires étrangères, Olivier Nduhungirehe : « Un génocide contre qui ? Contre des ethnies non Tutsies ? Contre toutes toutes celles qu'on chercherait à détruire en tant que telles ? Cette proposition est stupide ».  De quoi je me mêle ? Est-il ministre de la République démocratique du Congo ? Non. Qu'est-ce qui l'embête à nous voir, nous Congolais, parler de notre pays, réclamer justice sur les souffrances et les meurtres qu'ont subies les populations congolaises ? Se sent-il coupable ? Moi, je crois que ce sont les grandes préoccupations qu'il faut se poser. Lorsqu'un ministre d'un gouvernement étranger se préoccupe autant des droits que réclame un président élu légitimement par ses concitoyens, se sent-il coupable de ce génocide ? C'est la question majeure qu'il faut se poser. Et lorsqu'on trouvera ensemble tous la réponse, je crois qu'effectivement, tel que nous sommes en train de le réclamer, ce génocide sera reconnu universellement et on aura identifié le coupable réel du génocide congolais.   À lire aussiRDC: la question du retour des réfugiés au coeur des discussions de paix avec l'AFC/M23 et le Rwanda

Today, we're sharing a special episode honouring a true explorer who we lost last week.  Dr. Jane Goodall was a pioneering primatologist, and conservationist best known for her groundbreaking work with wild chimpanzees in Tanzania. With no formal scientific training at the time, she began observing chimpanzees in 1960 and soon made discoveries that redefined our understanding of animals — including tool use, emotional depth, and complex social behavior. Over her lifetime, she became a global icon for wildlife conservation and animal welfare, and her work continues to inspire millions to protect the planet and live in harmony with nature. Unfortunately, we were never able to get Jane on the show – that would have been a dream come true! So, it's not an episode directly about her. But it does raise some themes that were inspired and borne from the work she did … and it does feature chimpanzees, as well as Mountain Gorillas, who as primates are our distant ancestors too.  Today, we're going to follow Praveen Moman, one of the world's leading primate conservationists, into the Virunga Mountains of Rwanda in search of the critically endangered mountain gorilla, and to the Kyambura Gorge, in Uganda, in search of a lost troop of Chimpanzees. Seeing mountain gorillas, or chimpanzees in the wild is one of the rarest and most inspiring wildlife experiences on the planet. There is an immediate bond, a sense of connection. And what we'll discover is, when you look a mountain gorilla in the eye, you see yourself reflected back. Highlights include: - Trekking in the Virunga Mountains of Rwanda in search of the critically endangered mountain gorilla - Hearing what it feels like to sit quietly among the troop, as babies come curiously up to explore, and the 400lb male silverback brushes past   - Walking into the Kyambura Gorge as the lost troop of Chimpanzees comes down from the canopy and surrounds you on all sides - Being inspired by Praveen's story, a refugee of Uganda who returned to his beloved homeland to help rebuild one of the most war-torn regions on the planet   FIND OUT MORE Janegoodall.org volcanoessafaris.com  gorillafund.org   FOLLOW US: Instagram: ⁠@armchairexplorerpodcast⁠Facebook: ⁠@armchairexplorerpodcast⁠Newsletter: ⁠armchair-explorer.com⁠ PODCAST RECOMMENDATION Check out the Smart Travel Podcast: This week's show is supported by the new Smart Travel Podcast.

In this week's episode of The Long Form, I sit down with Dr. Emile Rwamasirabo — a man whose life mirrors the turbulent history of Rwanda. Born in 1951 in Nyaruguru, he lived through the Kayibanda years, endured exile, trained as a surgeon in France, and then left a comfortable life abroad to join the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) in Uganda. From the battlefields of the liberation war where he treated wounded fighters, to rebuilding Rwanda's shattered health system and leading its biggest hospitals, Dr. Rwamasirabo shares a deeply personal and historical perspective. We talk about exile, sacrifice, state-building, and the lessons of the RPF struggle. For audiences across Rwanda, East Africa, Africa, and the diaspora, this conversation offers a rare look into the journey of a senior RPF cadre and the evolution of Rwanda's politics, medicine, and nationhood.Listen to the Long Form with Sanny Ntayombya podcast on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/rw/podcast/the-long-form-with-sanny-ntayombya/id1669879621Listen to the Long Form with Sanny Ntayombya podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7HkkUi4bUyIeYktQhWOljcFollow Long Form with Sanny Ntayombya on Twitter: https://x.com/TheLongFormRwFollow Long Form with Sanny Ntayombya on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thelongformrw/Follow Long Form with Sanny Ntayombya on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@longformrwFollow Sanny Ntayombya on Twitter: https://x.com/SannyNtayombya About Long Form with Sanny Ntayombya:The Long Form with Sanny Ntayombya is a weekly podcast intent on keeping you up to date with current affairs in Rwanda.

Malachi 1:1-5 - From Doubting God's Love to Declaring God's Love We're beginning a new sermon series this morning. We'll be in the Book of Malachi for the next couple of months. You can find Malachi chapter 1 on page 953 in the Pew Bibles. Malachi is the last book of the Old Testament, so if you can find the book of Matthew, turn left a couple of pages. We'll begin with verses 1-5. One note before I read. In these verses, you will hear of a reference to Edom. The Edomites were the descendants of Esau. That will be some helpful context. Reading of Malachi 1:1-5 Prayer When I was in high school and college, I spent a few summers working at a Christian camp. Well, one particular summer, one of my fellow counsellors had a very difficult camper. This kid was, I think, only in 1st grade. And he was rambunctious. He was mean to the other campers. He struggled to follow rules. He didn't want to participate in activities. In those moments, his counsellor would get down on one knee to his level, and try gently instruct him. During dangerous activities, like archery, his counsellor would often have to hold his hand, to keep him safe. Of course, the other boys in his cabin would get angry at him. Their counsellor would always intervene and remind them all to speak kind words to one another. Well, one afternoon, things escalated. The counsellor tried to calm his camper down, but the boy lost it and started screaming. Literally, the whole camp could hear it. They were in the middle of a big group activity, so his counsellor had to gently carry him away. As this young boy was being carried away, he kept screaming over and over, “I hate you.” “I hate you.” To which his counsellor calmly responded over and over, “I love you.” “I love you.” Their back and forth slowly faded as they passed out of sight. The camper, of course, didn't understand that his counsellor did love him. He didn't know what love really looked like in that situation. To this boy, it didn't appear to be love at all. Maybe some of you who are parents have experienced something similar. Well, as we get to Malachi chapter 1, God's people, likewise, were questioning God's love. It didn't feel like God loved them. But he did. And in response, God mercifully reminds them of his love. Most of us here today have at one point or another cried out to God. We've questioned whether he was even there or if he was loving. Maybe that is what you are feeling today. My hope and prayer that you will leave here with a renewed or new sense of God's love for you. Introduction As we get into the book of Malachi, let me first mention some background things. Malachi is one of 12 books called minor prophets. They are called “minor” not because they are less important but because they are shorter. We don't actually know much about the prophet Malachi other than that his name means “messenger.” He was a messenger from God. As we will find out next week, he lived in Jerusalem. And based on the themes in the book and its position in the Old Testament cannon, Malachi prophesied sometime during the middle of the 400s BC. He very likely overlapped with Ezra and Nehemiah. At that time, some of the exiles had returned from Babylon to Jerusalem, and the temple had been rebuilt. The last thing to point out is the word “oracle” right there in verse 1. It's used throughout the Old Testament when a prophets were given a particularly burdensome word from God. Oracle, in fact, means burden – you know, like a heavy load that an animal would carry on its back and the weariness or distress that it would bring. When the word “oracle” is used to describe a prophetic utterance, it is conveying the weight of that prophecy. As we work our way through Malachi, we are going to see the weight of this prophecy. Over and over, God very clearly calls for repentance from grievous sin, and God warns them if they do not return to him. However, before all of that, God begins with a reminder of his love. And that is what verses 2-5 are about. If you turn to page 4 of your bulletin, you can see where we are headed. ·      First, God's Love Doubted. Verse 2. ·      Second, God's Love Defended, the end of verse 2 through verse 4 ·      And third, God's Love Declared, 5 So, God's love doubted, defended, and declared. 1. God's Love Doubted We see right there in verse 2 that the people doubted God's love for them.  “I have loved you,” says the Lord, but you say, “how have you loved us?” By the way, this is the pattern throughout Malachi. God quotes the people questioning him, and then he answers. It's the organizing framework for the book. How have you loved us, Lord? It sure doesn't feel like you do. This was a difficult time in Jerusalem. We don't often think of it that way because, after all, the people were back in Jerusalem. The temple had been rebuilt. However, socially and economically, it was a very unstable time. Yes, the Persian kings had supported the return and rebuild, but that did not mean prosperity. No, the people experienced a lot of trouble and opposition. Taxes were high. Jobs were scarce. They were in the middle of a famine. The people had to mortgage their fields and vineyards and houses just to survive. Some even forced their sons and daughter into slavery. We know those things from Nehemiah 5. All of it weighed heavily on them. And think about their expectations. God had promised through Isaiah and Jeremiah a return from exile back to Jerusalem. The people had in their minds the glory of the former unified kingdom – you know, prosperity and peace. They pictured Solomon's temple restored to its original beauty and splendor. I'm sure some even pictured a return of the national power that Judah and Israel had once had. But their expectations came crashing down with the reality of their situation. They couldn't lift their eyes to see beyond each day… because of the difficulty that each day brought. It was not peace and prosperity, it was survival mode. And in their minds, who was at fault? God. And so, they were asking, how have you loved us, Lord? Where have you been? Have you or are you asking that? Lord, do you love me? It sure doesn't feel like it. I can't find a job or it's hard to financially survive each day. Or I've lost a parent or a spouse or a sibling or a child. Or even harder at times, my relationship with my son or daughter is estranged, or I've endured the pain of divorce. Or my health is deteriorating more each day, Or I struggle with chronic pain or a debilitating disease. Or my loved one is.  I feel all alone. Or I've been a victim of abuse or false accusations. Lord, where are you? Do you really love me? Maybe someone told you this well-known phrases once: “God has a wonderful plan for your life.” Have you heard that before? It is one of the most unhelpful statements in evangelicalism. I'm not saying that it is not partially true. Stay tuned for that. But becoming a Christian does not mean that you will experience peace and prosperity in this life. To be sure, being a Christian does come with many blessings on earth. Blessings in relationship and community with one another in the church. Blessings of worship and prayer, and many others things. But if we expect that our days on earth will be filled with temporal success or health or relational flourishing, we will become deeply disappointed. And it may cause us to question God's love. I want you to note something in verse 2. Before the Lord quotes their questioning of his love, he begins by affirming that he does love them. “I have loved you.” By the way, that word “love” is not the word “hesed.” You know, God covenant lovingkindness. Rather, that word for “love” is the word “ahab.” It is a word for love that focuses on a loving relationship. It's God's love for them as his people whom he chose to be his people. In fact, the verb form indicates that God's love for them has been accomplished and it is definitive. It's like saying, I *did, I do, and I will * love you. There are no ifs, ands, or buts about it. God has, does, and will love his people. What I want to say to wrap up this first point is that in those times of doubting God's love... in those times when you are burdened by your suffering… or when you are wondering where the Lord is, God calls you to first remember that the Lord does love you. But rather than just leave it there, the Lord goes on to defend his love. He explains the source of his love. 2. God's Love Defended That brings us to #2. God's Love Defended. In the second half of verse 2, the Lord returns their question with a question himself. He asks, “Is not Esau Jacob's brother?” And then reminds them of his love for Jacob and his hatred for Esau. The Israelites are Jacob's descendants. Now, the reason that God reminds them about Jacob and Esau is because Jacob and Esau demonstrated both God's unmerited love as well as his just anger. Back in Genesis 25 and following, we learn about Jacob and Esau. They were both sons of Isaac. Twins, in fact. Esau was born first, so Esau was to have the privileges of being the firstborn, authority in the family, the blessing of Isaac, and a large share of the inheritance. But if you remember, Jacob took advantage of Esau. When Esau was famished, Esau sold his birthright to Jacob for a bowl of stew. And then Jacob lied to and tricked their father into blessing him instead of Esau. Even though Jacob did not deserve it, God chose him and chose his descendants to be his people. Esau and his descendants, on the other hand, were rejected. You see, neither deserved God's love, yet God chose Jacob. Jacob and his descendants were the ones who received God's promise. But, back to Malachi, there was the problem. To the people in Jerusalem (you know, the returned exiles), it sure felt like God loved Esau's descendants and not Jacob's. As I mentioned earlier, the Edomites were the descendants of Esau. In fact, in some way, they partnered with or supported Babylon in the destruction of Jerusalem a hundred years earlier. We're not told how, but we're told elsewhere that Edom rejoiced in Jerusalem's destruction. The prophet Ezekiel even mentions that Edom took vengeance against Judah. So, it's possible Esau's descendants even participated in Babylon's destruction of Jerusalem. Let me make a side note here. There is some evidence that after the Babylonian exile, another nation overthrew Edom and the Edomites were forced to move. There is also evidence that at this time Edom began rebuilding just south of Judah. If that is true, it certainly explains verses 3 and 4. They were displaced by jackals, as it says, but they began to rebuild. I'm telling you all this because in these verses, God is both affirming his love for his people… and he is letting them know that even though Edom appears to be prospering again, it will be short-lived and their destruction would be eternal. In contrast, the suffering that God people were experiencing would be short-lived but their prosperity would be eternal. Why? Because God chose them to be his people. He loved them with an undeserved and unconditional love. Beloved in Christ. There are or will be times in your life when it seems like the enemies of faith are overcoming you. I'm talking about sin, death, and the devil. You will have moments when you are questioning God's love because you don't see a path forward. Your pain, suffering, grief, loneliness, or disappointments may overwhelm you at times. But if God has given you the gift of faith in Christ, you are one of God's chosen descendants of Jacob – his spiritual descendant. And God loves you. Does God have a wonderful plan for your life? Yes, because all his and your enemies will be defeated and one day, you will be rejoicing for eternity in his presence. Do you see what I am saying. This passage, for them and for us, is ultimately fulfilled in the unmerited love of God in Jesus Christ. God chose all his people to be his people, not because of any self-worthiness. No. Just like with Jacob, despite our sin, God chose us to be his people. He called us in him before the foundation of the world. And God's judgment against Edom is the judgment that Jesus bore on the cross for his people. What I am saying, is that in those moments of despair and doubt. Remember not only that God loves you, but remember that he has called you to be his through Christ. And one day, God will defeat once and for all the very burdens that are weighing you down. Just a week and a half ago, I was at an event where a missionary shared about a very difficult time. He and his wife were serving in Rwanda back during the difficult civil war there. It was tragic. Neighbors turned on neighbors. In a single day, a million people were killed. In one incident, a group or Christians fled to their church building. Their pursuers broke in and slaughtered every single one of them. As you can imagine, seeing all of it overwhelmed this missionary and his wife. But then it became more difficult. Because, soon after that, his wife went into premature labor while there. Their son was delivered but the hospital didn't have the expertise or medical equipment to save him. He died after only 5 days of life. This missionary described the deep struggle that he and his wife went through. They questioned God's love and goodness in all of it. They searched for answers. He then recounted how Job demanded God for answers. And how God answered Job back and asked, “where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?” And then this missionary said this: “Job never got answers, but he got presence. And in that presence, he worshipped.” That really struck me. God does not promise that we will not suffer in this life. But he does promise that he loves us and will be with us… and one day he will defeat his and our enemies forever. This missionary closed by sharing how they were drawn back to Jesus and God's love for them in him. 3. God's Love Declared Which brings us to point number 3. God's love declared. For the exiles who had returned to Jerusalem, both their worldview and their perception of God was small. Remember, God had promised them many things. He had promised a Messianic king. He had promised a restoration of a kingdom beyond what could be imagined. He promised to defeat their enemies. And that was part of their struggle. None of it seemed to be coming to pass. In fact, for them, it seemed to be getting worse rather than better. They forgot God's love and his promises, and they lost hope. What they needed was not only a reminder that they were God's chosen people whom he loved. They needed a reminder of his future promises. Verse 5 says “Your own eyes shall see this, and you shall say, ‘Great is the Lord beyond the border of Israel!'” Most prophecies in the Bible have a more immediate fulfillment but also a future redemptive fulfillment. For the immediate, there is some historical record that the Edomites were soon overcome by both Greek and then Roman conquests. But I think verse 5 is really meant to draw their attention to the future. To point them to a coming king who will be victorious, not only in Israel, but as verse 5 says, beyond its borders. It's like God was saying to them through Malachi, “Yes, I love you, but I also want you to lift your eyes up from your suffering to see what I will do! It will be far greater than you can imagine. Not only will the enemies of faith be destroyed, but you will see the greatness of my salvation to the world” As you may have figured out, it was still about 450 years before Jesus' birth. God was not saying that those particular people in Jerusalem would see the ultimate fulfillment of this verse. Perhaps they would see Edom overcome. But remember, the Lord was speaking to Israel. It is through them that that Savior would come. This is the last period in their history before Jesus came. And when he came, he would bring salvation not only to Israel, but his electing love would greatly expand beyond the border of Israel to the world. Beloved in Christ, you and I are part of this promise. We are here today worshiping our God who has saved us because God has and is fulfilling this promise to Israel. Christ has come and His Gospel is going forth in mighty ways throughout the earth. This is part of God's reminder to us when we are doubting his love. Yes, we can rest in the fact that we are God's people. We have his love in Christ. But in times of suffering and disappointment and grief and despair, we can lift our eyes up to see what God is doing all around us and around the word. It is truly amazing. And by seeing what God is doing, believing what he will do, we can and should then declare his love to the world. As verse 5 puts it, “you shall say, ‘Great is the Lord beyond the border of Israel!'” From doubting God's love to declaring God's love. Conclusion As we close, let me briefly say that these opening verses are the foundation to the rest of Malachi. We're going to see over and over the sin of the people, the sin of the priests, and the Lord's call for them to repent and return to him. Malachi begins where they needed to begin… it begins where we need to begin. Knowing and believing in God's saving and electing love in Christ. So, in our doubt and discouragement and pain, may we know and believe in God's undeserved love for us in Christ – he has chosen us in him. May we lift our eyes to see what he is doing, and may we declare the greatness of our God in all of it. Amen.

In this week's BikeRadar news podcast, Jack Luke is once again joined by Simon von Bromley to discuss the latest hot stories in bike tech.   We kick things off with a Shimano leak that suggests the Japanese brand may be working on a set of power meter pedals for its next generation road groupsets.   Next, we move on to the new Specialized Aethos 2, which has been updated to include full integrated cable routing, wider tyre clearance and a less aggressive geometry. It's also as light and expensive as ever, of course.   We also discuss Tadej Pogačar's tricked-out Colnago Y1Rs from the Rwanda world championships, and speculate why the Slovenian rider switched to Continental's new Archetype tyres for this race.   Finally, instead of ending with a ‘rant of the week', Simon and Jack give a rare shoutout to the UCI for its recently announced cost cap for track cycling bikes and equipment, which will be introduced ahead of the Los Angeles Olympics Games in 2028. I've spotted an unreleased Shimano pedal system – and it looks like the product we've been waiting … The Aethos 2 is the lightest production bike Specialized has ever made at 5.98kg UCI announces price caps for 2028 Olympic track bikes and equipment Tadej Pogačar's tricked-out Colnago Y1Rs for the Rwanda World Championships – new tyres, custom whe… Learn more about your ad choices.

Forhjulslir præsenteres i samarbejde med Continental Dæk Danmark. Efteråret nærmer sig - og det betyder, at det snart er tid til et dækskifte. Husk at skifte til vinterdæk, når temperaturen er under syv grader. Continental har prisvindende vinter- og helårsdæk. Sikkerheden starter med dækket – på både cyklen og bilen. Uden at skænke 500-jubilæet en tanke satte vi os cykelglade, inspirerede og motiverede til mikrofonerne for at dykke ned i Tadej Pogacars imponerende anden VM-titel i Rwanda i søndags – indtrykkene, de brændende øjeblikke og måske det mest ærlige VM-løb i mange år. Vi ser naturligvis også tilbage på gårsdagens EM-enkeltstart, hvor Niklas Larsen tog en bemærkelsesværdig bronzemedalje, mens Remco endnu engang satte flueben ved et international mesterskab. Til sidst kigger vi frem mod søndagens linjeløb, hvor Danmark – for allerførste gang – stiller til start med den fulde tretrinsraket: Vingegaard, Skjelmose og Mads P.

This week's episode of Parsing Immigration Policy features Katie Lam, Conservative Member of Parliament for Weald of Kent and a Shadow Home Office Minister, who brings a British perspective on the pressing issue of immigration.Since 1974, the UK's immigration system has been marked by broken promises to the voters and rising numbers – despite repeated pledges to reduce migration. Net migration has averaged 100,000+ annually since 1977, peaking at more than 900,000 in 2023, creating profound economic, cultural, and practical challenges.In a conversation with Mark Krikorian, the Center's Executive Director, Lam argues that both legal and illegal migration must be tackled head-on:Legal MigrationCurrent system brings in too many people and is insufficiently selective.Health & Social Care visa was projected to bring in 6,000 entrants – but saw 600,000 arrivals, many not working in the sector.Consequence: artificially low wages, huge costs to taxpayers in part due to long-term settlement rights that provide welfare, housing, and full healthcare.Solution: cut and cap numbers, set clear criteria.Illegal MigrationOver 30,000 illegal Channel crossings so far this year – the 2025 number will be a record high.Criminal gangs drive the crossings, costing taxpayers 52,000 pounds per person annually – before even receiving asylum – in housing, food, clothing, and spending money.Lam supports the Rwanda plan – a third-country asylum model to deter unlawful entry.She also raises concerns about judicial overreach, international treaties, and the erosion of parliamentary authority in controlling borders. Lam makes the case for a reformed Conservative Party to deliver consistent, specific, and enforceable immigration policies – restoring trust with voters and winning in the future election.In today's commentary, Mark Krikorian notes the role that taxpayer-funded healthcare for illegal aliens plays in the current government shutdown debate and observes that the only major immigration function that stops during a shutdown is E-Verify.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestKatie Lamm is the Conservative Member of Parliament for Weald of Kent and a Shadow Home Office Minister.Intro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

The toughest World Champs ever?! The boys break down all the drama from an unforgettable World Championships in Rwanda. Did the chasers blow their tactics? Who were the unsung heroes of the race? And what exactly happens to the European jersey when Pogacar takes that as well? They also dig into Remco's mechanical woes, Ben Healy's brilliant 2025 season, and G gives us some insight into how his running career is shaping up

The 2025 UCI World Road Cycling Championships in Kigali, Rwanda, delivered plenty of drama and debate, and SOS host Mike Finch was there to witness the action first-hand and ask if this was the best championships of the century. We also have the post-race interviews with the big stars and discuss whether Remco Evenepoel can really upset the two-time World Champion Tadej Pogacar at the upcoming European championships on October 5 and the season-ending Il Lombardia a week later.***Join Discourse and contribute to the Spotlight, and join the conversation - a small monthly donation gets you membership to our community, and that allows you to drive discussion around these shows, and get even more value and insight from what other listeners are sharing.

Let's talk legacy, land, and liberation. In this powerful episode, we're traveling across Africa, from Uganda to Rwanda, Ghana to Kenya, to explore how women are reclaiming land, rewriting inheritance laws, and building wealth from the ground up. You'll hear about bold grassroots movements, legal reforms, and everyday women saying no more to being written out of wealth. This is about all of us. Not just about Africa. Because when women own assets, we don't just hold wealth, we multiply it for generations. If you've ever wondered why land ownership matters or whether your name is on the right deeds, this episode will spark some serious reflection and action. If this episode moved you, share it with a sister-friend. Because wealth is more than money. It's your power to choose your path.   00:10 – Imagine losing your home because you're a widow 01:00 – The history of land ownership and gender inequality 02:15 – Legal wins: Kenya, Uganda & beyond 03:10 – Rwanda after genocide: Women rebuilt a nation 04:05 – Why ownership is an economic revolution 04:50 – The U.S. isn't off the hook 05:50 – “Own nothing, control everything”?

Were David and Jonathan more than friends? In today's episode of Family Vision, Dr. Rob Rienow addresses a growing cultural accusation that their biblical relationship was romantic. With clarity, grace, and a commitment to Scripture, Rob walks through the key texts that describe their friendship and explains why the Bible celebrates their bond as a model of godly loyalty, not romance.

Learn how to respond with truth and love, and help your children understand the beauty of God's design for friendship and relationships. What You'll Learn in This Episode: - Why the Bible never describes David and Jonathan's friendship as romantic - How cultural assumptions distort the meaning of godly friendship - What Scripture actually says about love between friends - How to talk to your kids about biblical sexuality and God's good design Featured Resources: Helping Families Navigate the World of Sexuality — Watch now on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5213ToFkONg Upcoming Events — Join us for live Visionary Family Conferences, Sundays, and special events.

Juan Ayuso has a new home, Chloe Dygert has a sticker printing machine, and there are also some World Championships happening in Rwanda. 

Will lower gearing make for safer racing? The UCI thinks so, but it could also make all of SRAM's 1X drivetrains verboten at the highest level of competition without affecting Shimano or Campagnolo. SRAM disagrees, obviously, and has begun legal action in Europe, citing reputational damage and EU competition laws. And as you'd expect, the UCI responded yet again. That and more on this week's episode of Velo Podcast. Velo Tech Editor Josh Ross and host Mike Levy dig into the details of the UCI's potential 10.46-meter rollout rule and why SRAM's 10-tooth cog doesn't comply, safer courses versus lower gearing, and the UCI's near silence when it comes to so many issues. We also discuss the UCI president's social media post congratulating Tadej Pogacar on his TT World Champs victory in Rwanda, despite Remco being the actual victor, and we look at Alvin's first impressions of Factor's new Aluto gravel bike.

The inaugural UCI road World Championships on the continent of Africa take place in Rwanda this week. The first few days of racing threw up one major surprise, the next few could yield more - and Daniel Friebe, Lionel Birnie & Brian Nygaard are on review & preview duty here. Remco Evenepoel‘s trouncing of Tadej Pogačar in the men‘s TT last Sunday confounded some tipsters but not the form book in that discipline. It‘ll be Pogačar, not Remco, defending his world title on Sunday - but did the former‘s performance on Sunday suggest his road race crown is there for the taking? We discuss this, hear from one Slovenian on the ground in Kigali and ponder the curious, in fact downright mysterious case of Nauru‘s single entrant on the provisional startlist.  OUR SPONSORS, LLOYDS The Cycling Podcast is proudly supported by Lloyds.

Britain is expected to take the unprecedented step of recognising a Palestinian state today.
