Host Natalie Grueninger welcomes historian Helene Harrison to explore how Anne Boleyn crafted her image and how it was reshaped after her death. They discuss Anne's coronation symbolism, self-fashioning, and efforts by Henry VIII's court to win public favour. The conversation examines key portraits and artefacts—from the Hever Rose portrait and the Chequers ring to the 1534 medal—and the ongoing debates around their dating and identification. Helen traces contemporary reactions at home and abroad, Anne's reappearance in Elizabeth I's reign, and the clash between Nicholas Sander and John Foxe. She then follows Anne's evolving legacy through Stuart drama, Victorian myth‑making, and modern screen portrayals, including Anne of the Thousand Days, The Tudors, Wolf Hall, and Six the Musical. Helene also shares details of her new book, The Many Faces of Anne Boleyn, teases a forthcoming study of Henry VIII's Great Matter, and offers a lighthearted Tudor-themed reading recommendation.

What kind of church do we want to be – a place where people are truly known, accepted, and led by the Holy Spirit? In this compelling sermon, we explore how persecution has shaped the early church and continues to define our response to opposition today. Facing hostility and mistreatment because of faith is nothing new for Christians, but how can it propel us forward rather than hold us back? How can we reimagine our response to persecution to align with the mission and purpose God has for us? Discover how persecution, while daunting, is an opportunity rather than an obstacle. By embracing persecution as a blessing, we align with the early church's legacy, displaying the love, humility, and courage of Christ. Through scripture, we will uncover how God uses adversity not to silence His Word, but to catalyze it across nations and hearts. Join us as we dive into Acts 7 and 8, understanding that each act of faith amidst persecution serves as a testimony to God's unwavering power.**Key Takeaways:**1. **Persecution is Not New**: Recognize that opposition is part of the Christian journey. Jesus Himself warned us, and history reaffirms the resilience of God's people. 2. **God's Plan is Unstoppable**: No amount of persecution can derail God's divine plan. When facing hostility, remember that God is still in control, using these moments to advance His kingdom.3. **Persecution as a Blessing**: Embrace persecution not merely as a hardship to endure but as a divine opportunity to display Christ-like love and virtue to a watching world.**Scripture References:**- John 15:18-20- Acts 7:54-60- 2 Timothy 3:12- Philippians 3:10- Matthew 5:10At 2Rivers, our mission is to help you become a passionate follower of Jesus so you can experience the life He intended for you and encourage others to do the same.
