Legacy is a series about living for something bigger than ourselves. As we step into a new season as a church, we're exploring what it means to build a life that leaves a lasting impact. Not just what we leave for people, but what we leave in people. Throughout this series, we'll discover how ordinary people throughout Scripture built extraordinary legacies of faith—from Moses and Joshua, David and Solomon, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to Paul, Timothy and the early Church. Their stories remind us that every generation has a part to play in advancing God's Kingdom. Together we'll explore what it means to build: - A Future Legacy - A Global Legacy - A Local Legacy - A Next Generation Legacy - A Restoring Legacy - A Pioneering Legacy As a church, we're committed to seeing God's Kingdom accelerated in our cities, across Europe and beyond. This series will encourage and challenge us to live with eternity in mind, investing our lives, our faith and our generosity into something that will outlast us. "One generation commends your works to another; they tell of your mighty acts." — Psalm 145:4 Join us as we discover how to leave a legacy that points people to Jesus and helps build His Kingdom for generations to come.

Moscow's strategic objective has long been to neutralise the United States as an obstacle to Russian power by attacking the cohesion, confidence, institutions and decision-making capacity of American society itself. This is the argument behind Keir Giles' latest book, American Overthrow (2026).----------Keir Giles has spent his career watching, studying, and explaining Russia, which is fortuitous, as Russia has reemerged as an aggressive and malign peer adversary in the 21st century. Keir is a British specialist on Russian strategy, information warfare, cyber conflict and non-military power projection. He is currently an Associate Fellow in Chatham House's Russia and Eurasia Programme and has supported its Russia research since 2013. He also leads the independent Conflict Studies Research Centre (CSRC), which he has directed since 2010. Earlier in his career he worked for the BBC Monitoring Service and with the UK Defence Academy, researching Russian military doctrine, security policy, cyber and information warfare and Russia's relations with neighbouring states.----------BOOKS:American Overthrow: Moscow's Endgame in Its Long War with Washington (2026) Who Will Defend Europe?

In today's episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley dissect Andy Burnham's performance at his second-ever appearance at Prime Minister's Questions. They analyse Mr Burnham's jovial responses to other questions from MPs in the Commons, and deliberate whether he is a “continuity Keir” – as he was labelled in today's Questions – or in fact, even worse. Camilla and Tim also discuss the PM's response to being challenged by Kemi Badenoch, the Tory leader, on how the Government would find the money to meet defence spending targets, to which he insisted that welfare would not be cut to fund it.► Subscribe to our new Daily T YouTube channel: youtube.com/@dailytpodcast► Sign up to our most popular newsletter, From the Editor.

This week, Nish is back from his fringe frolics, and joins Coco to talk about parliament's return from summer recess. The revolving door continues as Keir Starmer resigns, Nigel Farage gets sworn in (again) and Andy Burnham tests his stamina with nearly three and a half hours' worth of questions in the commons. With Zack Polanski rumoured to run in St Pancras and Holborn, how might the next by-election (another one?!) play out?Also on the pod, we're joined by journalist and historian Taj Ali. He unpacks what we can learn from grassroots organising and community resistance in the 1970s, shares reflections from the worst racist violence in over a century, and explains why the white working class has more in common with the South Asian community than they might think. Also, PSUK exclusive: fellow Luton native Stephen Yaxley-Lennon eats halal?

What happens to careers in the Salesforce ecosystem when AI starts changing how work gets done? In this episode of Mums on Cloud Nine, we continue our Golden Hoodie series with Keir Bowden, who received his Golden Hoodie at Dreamforce 2024 after nearly two decades of contributing to the Salesforce community. Keir began his career as a Java developer before moving into Salesforce, where answering questions on the original Force.com discussion boards led to blogging, public speaking, community leadership and writing books for fellow Salesforce professionals. From Community Contributor to Golden Hoodie Keir shares how giving back to the community became a major part of his career, from helping people online to supporting developer groups, speaking at Salesforce events and helping new speakers find the confidence to share their own experiences. We also hear how becoming self-employed has given Keir greater freedom to choose the projects, conferences and technical subjects that interest him. What Does AI Mean for Salesforce Careers? Keir offers a thoughtful perspective on the uncertainty surrounding AI and employment. He questions predictions that junior roles will disappear and asks an important question: if companies stop hiring juniors today, where will tomorrow's senior professionals come from? He also explains why governance, compliance, business analysis and human oversight continue to create opportunities for people who understand how Salesforce systems actually work. Working With Agentforce Having worked with the technology that eventually became Agentforce, Keir discusses where he sees genuine value today. From customer service and sentiment analysis to helping admins diagnose Salesforce issues, Keir sees opportunities for AI to save people time. He also explains why handing entire processes to autonomous agents can introduce new problems when organizations lose sight of how decisions are being made. Building Your Confidence in the Salesforce Community Keir finishes with practical advice for anyone considering public speaking. His message is simple: start with community groups, talk about something you know from your own experience and stop assuming everybody in the audience knows more than you. Your story and experience can help somebody else, regardless of where you currently are in your Salesforce career. Mums on Cloud Nine is your go-to destination for inspiring content that empowers women to build a life and career they love. Each week, we share expert advice, personal stories, and practical tips across a range of topics, from health and mindset to money and career growth.

With just one day until Andy Burnham is crowned Labour leader, many are still scratching their heads – what will a Burnham government actually look like?The incoming PM says he's in no rush and will take his time over cabinet appointments – having already signalled a budget is likely in October.Sam Coates and Anne McElvoy assess who could land the biggest jobs – especially at the Treasury, where Shabana Mahmood is emerging as the favourite for No11.The duo also wonder if the announcement that British Steel is being renationalised will set Burnham up for a diplomatic row with the Chinese government early in his premiership.Plus, as Starmer clocks up the “Keir miles” one last time on a farewell trip to Kyiv, will his bond with Zelenskyy endure after he leaves office?

Are light runs (Zone 2 runs) better than heavier workouts? Sophie goes on a semi-manic tangent in her most enthusiastic episode yet to answer whether less intense exercise might actually help your fitness level, aerobic threshold and mitochondrial efficiency. Also, Chris tells a funny marathon story and a viewer question tries to fact-check to the fact checkers on whether walking and running burn the same amount of energy.

Iran's 14 points: making the world safe for Shia Theocracy. Obviously, Donald Trump putting his John Hancock to the Islamabad Memorandum at Versailles carries absolutely no historical resonance. But after the occupation of the Ruhr and the abdication of the Kaiser, what else could the Mullahs possibly put on their shopping list? We'll be picking through the carcrash, looking for signs of life in DC. Meanwhile, to cement his lousy week Donald got into a love tiff with Georgia Meloni at the G7. Was this a passing fugue of Italian passion? The flamethrower of a woman scorned? Or was it the beginning of the end of what we've dubbed the ‘Euroslopulists' – fake populists kept on a long-short leash by Brussels and the European Central Bank? Finally, Donald Trump – remember him – managed to scoop the world's press to the news that Keir Starmer would resign as British Prime Minister, being sure to spell his name wrong as a final boot in the teeth. Sir Keir has evoked the kind of visceral loathing among Brits normally reserved for child killers and queue jumpers. But who will they have left to blame when his affable dimwit successor blows up in half the time?

Les démocraties libérales sont affaiblies. Vous aimez ce podcast ? Pour écouter tous les épisodes sans limite, rendez-vous sur Radio France

As we sadly file away that ‘Keep Keir And Carry On' headline in the bottom drawer… Keir Starmer steps down and our panel look at what the Starmer era really means. Are we now in a world where petty politics will always trump service to country? Why was this decent, vaguely boring man so loathed in the country? Does this public bloodletting help or hinder Labour's existential battle against Reform? And why can't Britain hang on to its Prime Ministers? We're joined by Chris Grey, the don of Brexit bloggers to discuss it all. This is a special two-part split edition, enabling us to get you the Farewell to Keir Starmer portion of the pod as fast as possible. Be here tomorrow as our panel “celebrate” ten years of the Brexit Referendum that pitched Britain into a psychodrama it still can't escape. • Read Chris Grey's blog Brexit and Brexitism • Pre-order Jonn's new book 31 Inventions That Made Our World through our affiliate bookshop and you'll help fund the podcast by earning us a small commission for every sale.
