Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for September 25, 2025 is: anomaly • uh-NAH-muh-lee • noun Anomaly is a somewhat formal word that refers to something that is remarkable in its deviation from what is usual or expected. // Last summer's storm was an anomaly for this area. // We were unable to explain the anomalies in the test results. See the entry > Examples: “Magic realism usually makes no attempt to explain or justify the anomaly behind the magical event. Its justification lies in the conceptual possibilities it allows for in the narrative, pleasure it provides, and feeling of strangeness that comes from a familiar world being tweaked.” — Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby, Not Here, Not Now: Speculative Thought, Impossibility, and the Design Imagination, 2025 Did you know? You might be familiar with the Greek word homos, which means “same.” It is from this word that we get words like homonym, homogeneous, and homophone, all of which have to do with sameness or similarity. What does this have to do with anomaly? Although it's not obvious, homos is a part of the etymology of anomaly, too. Anomaly is a descendant—by way of Latin and Middle French—of the Greek word anṓmalos, which means “uneven” or “irregular.” Anṓmalos comes from the prefix a- (meaning “not”) and the word homalόs (meaning “even”)—and homalόs comes from homos.

He clears up why people often confuse him for a Colombian (spoiler: he’s a proud Boricua

For many children, going barefoot isn't a choice—it's a daily struggle that puts their health, safety, and future at risk. But one pair of shoes can change that story.Today, we'll hear how Buckner Shoes for Orphan Souls is bringing hope and dignity to vulnerable children around the world. Shawn Spurrier joins us to share how God is changing lives through something as ordinary—and extraordinary—as shoes.Shawn Spurrier is the Director of Buckner Shoes for Orphan Souls at Buckner International, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. A Mission That Began in DallasBuckner Shoes for Orphan Souls started in 1999 as a local effort in Dallas, Texas, to serve children in Russian orphanages. Over 25 years later, God has expanded this work into a global ministry. Today, more than 5 million children in 86 countries have received shoes through the generosity of churches, businesses, and believers across the U.S.What began as a small act of compassion has grown into a worldwide movement of hope.More Than Shoes: Health, Safety, and EducationAround 300 million children worldwide lack access to shoes. This barrier affects nearly every aspect of life:Health—Shoes prevent footborne diseases, many of which carry social stigma and long-term consequences.Education—In many countries, shoes are required for school attendance. Without them, children are forced to stay home, trapped in cycles of poverty.Hope—Receiving shoes as a gift in Jesus' name opens hearts to the Gospel and connects families with life-changing ministries.Shoes are more than fabric and rubber—they are a bridge to dignity, opportunity, and transformation.Restoring Dignity for FamiliesFor many of us, buying new shoes for back-to-school is routine. But in parts of the world where Buckner serves, parents may spend months saving to afford just one pair—or go without entirely. Some families must rotate a single pair of shoes between siblings, deciding who can attend school on a given day.The gift of shoes restores dignity to parents, enabling them to provide for their children and giving kids the confidence to learn, grow, and thrive.Global Reach and Local ImpactBuckner's ministry extends both globally and locally:United States—Shoe distributions in Texas, including for families affected by flooding.Latin America—Serving children in Guatemala, the Dominican Republic, Mexico, Honduras, and Peru.Africa—Programs in Ethiopia and Kenya.Beyond—Partnerships have extended Buckner's reach into 75+ additional countries.Every pair of shoes opens the door to broader ministry. Family Hope Centers offer resources, education, and Christ-centered training, bringing lasting transformation to entire communities.How You Can JoinTogether, we're striving to provide 1,000 children with shoes, socks, and the message of God's love.$15 provides one child with shoes and socks.$150 equips ten children.Visit GiveShoesToday.org to make your gift and bring hope to a child in need.Shoes may seem ordinary, but in the life of a child, they are extraordinary. They represent safety, opportunity, dignity, and above all, the love of Christ.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm 40 and have several old 401(k) accounts from past employers. One advisor suggests consolidating them for an expected return of 8–10%, while another recommends a hedge fund offering 15–17% returns.

What does it really take to turn grief into purpose, and build a life anchored in giving, creativity, and real human connection For Sarah Akiba, celebrity stylist and founder of the nonprofit “Angel Watching Over Me,” it started with loss. After her father passed away, she built community through support groups, opened safe spaces for girls in public schools, and launched multiple ventures—all rooted in service and soul In this episode of Common Denominator, we unpack how grief became Sarah's superpower, how she balances creativity with entrepreneurship, and why alignment, not aesthetics, is what truly connects people. In this episode, you'll learn:

This interview was just recorded 13 days ago, and tragically, Brett James is now no longer with us, following a plane crash six days ago – exactly one week after he participated for this episode. He was a GRAMMY Award-winning singer, songwriter, guitar player, producer, and publisher who had written an astounding 27 number 1 songs. He had more than 800 of his songs recorded by some of the biggest artists in the world, with his songs having appeared on albums with combined sales of over 110 million copies. He was named ASCAP's country songwriter of the year in 2006 and 2010, and Music Row Magazine's Songwriter of the Year in 2015. He received more than 40 ASCAP hit song awards in country, pop, Latin and Christian genres. In 2020 he was elected to the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. As a producer his credits included Taylor Swift, Jessica Simpson, Danielle Bradberry and Kip Moore. At the time of this interview, he had close to 19 thousand monthly listeners on Spotify, where his top five songs alone had combined for more than six million streams, and his official YouTube channel had over a half-a-million combined video views.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for September 23, 2025 is: nonpareil • nahn-puh-REL • adjective Nonpareil describes that which has no equal because it is better than any other. // To this day, the band's debut album is still considered nonpareil, raising the bar for every rock group to follow. See the entry > Examples: "The Crew's soccer operations have been nonpareil during this latest golden era of their history." — Michael Arace, The Columbus (Ohio) Dispatch, 24 Feb. 2025 Did you know? Trace nonpareil back to its Middle French origins and you'll find that it comes from a term meaning "not equal." Pareil itself comes from the Latin word par, which means "equal," and non- is a common prefix meaning "not." In addition to its adjectival use, nonpareil also functions as a noun referring to an individual of unequaled excellence (as in "the nonpareil of cellists") as well as to a chocolate candy disk covered with small sugar pellets. A full exploration of the word's history, and its current functions in French, can be found here.

In this episode, we dive deep into spiritual warfare, exorcism, generational curses, and deliverance with a special returning guest. Together, we unpack his brand-new book Spiritual Warfare Q&A published by TAN Books — a Catholic reference guide that answers hundreds of real-world questions about demons, angels, exorcism, haunted houses, cursed objects, and the priesthood's authority in spiritual combat.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for September 21, 2025 is: lugubrious • loo-GOO-bree-us • adjective Lugubrious is a formal word used chiefly to describe something that is very sad especially in an exaggerated or insincere way. The word can also describe something that shows or expresses gloom. // The movie's stunning cinematography could not make up for the lugubrious and plodding plot. // The lugubrious mood of the room shifted when the voices of children playing erupted outside the window. See the entry > Examples: “On opening night, the audience at St. Petersburg's Alexandrinsky Theatre were mystified by The Seagull's neither wholly comic nor wholly tragic tone, hissing and heckling throughout, with Chekhov fleeing from the gallery after the second act. It was only two years later, when Konstantin Stanislavski staged a more lugubrious take on The Seagull at Moscow Art Theatre, that it came to be recognized as a work of pure genius.” — Hayley Maitland, Vogue, 12 Feb. 2025 Did you know? Everybody hurts, as the classic R.E.M. song goes, and when your day is long and the night is yours alone, lugubrious is a perfect word for describing such sorrowful feelings, or that which inspires them (a lugubrious song, perhaps). That said, if lugubrious strikes you as a tad unusual, no, no, no, you're not alone. Lugubrious is the sole surviving English offspring of the Latin verb lugēre, meaning “to mourn.” Its closest kin, luctual, an adjective meaning “sad” or “sorrowful,” was laid to rest centuries ago.

Le Vietnam est aujourd'hui l'un des rares pays d'Asie à utiliser un alphabet basé sur les lettres latines. Ce choix, qui peut surprendre dans une région où dominent les écritures chinoise, khmère ou encore thaïe, est le résultat d'une histoire longue mêlant influences étrangères, colonisation et adaptation culturelle.Pendant des siècles, les Vietnamiens ont utilisé le chữ Hán, c'est-à-dire les caractères chinois classiques. Cette écriture, réservée aux lettrés, servait dans l'administration, la littérature et la diplomatie. Mais elle était complexe et difficile à maîtriser. Pour la vie quotidienne, un système parallèle, le chữ Nôm, fut progressivement créé : il reprenait des caractères chinois existants ou en inventait de nouveaux pour transcrire les mots vietnamiens. Bien que plus adapté à la langue locale, le chữ Nôm restait compliqué et ne s'est jamais généralisé à toute la population.Le tournant intervient au XVIIᵉ siècle, avec l'arrivée de missionnaires chrétiens, notamment portugais et français, qui cherchent à transcrire la langue vietnamienne pour faciliter la prédication et l'apprentissage. Parmi eux, le jésuite français Alexandre de Rhodes joue un rôle décisif. En 1651, il publie à Rome un dictionnaire trilingue vietnamien–portugais–latin. Il met au point un système utilisant l'alphabet latin, enrichi de signes diacritiques (accents, tilde, crochets) pour indiquer les six tons de la langue vietnamienne. Ce système est appelé quốc ngữ, littéralement « écriture nationale ».Pendant longtemps, le quốc ngữ reste marginal, utilisé surtout par les missionnaires et quelques convertis chrétiens. Mais au XIXᵉ siècle, la colonisation française change la donne. Les autorités coloniales y voient un outil pratique pour administrer le pays : plus simple à enseigner et à apprendre que les caractères chinois, l'alphabet latin permet d'alphabétiser plus rapidement. Les Français l'imposent progressivement dans les écoles au détriment du chữ Hán et du chữ Nôm.Au début du XXᵉ siècle, le quốc ngữ devient un instrument de modernisation et de revendication nationale. Les intellectuels vietnamiens l'utilisent pour publier journaux, romans et tracts politiques, contribuant à diffuser plus largement les idées nouvelles et à éveiller la conscience nationale. Après l'indépendance, les gouvernements successifs le maintiennent comme système officiel, car il favorise une alphabétisation massive et rapide.Aujourd'hui, le Vietnam est fier de son alphabet latin, perçu comme un facteur d'unité et de modernité. Il témoigne d'une histoire complexe, où une invention missionnaire, d'abord marginale, est devenue un outil d'émancipation culturelle et politique.En résumé, si le Vietnam écrit en alphabet latin, c'est grâce à la rencontre entre l'ingéniosité missionnaire, la domination coloniale et la volonté des Vietnamiens de se doter d'un système simple, efficace et accessible à tous.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for September 19, 2025 is: succumb • suh-KUM • verb Succumbing is about yielding to something: someone who succumbs to a pressure or emotion stops trying to resist that pressure or emotion, and someone who succumbs to an injury or disease dies because of that injury or disease. The word is often followed by to. // The program aims to help kids develop the strength of character required to avoid succumbing to peer pressure. // Many patients diagnosed with the disease live healthy lives for years before succumbing to it. See the entry > Examples: “Occasionally, Dope Girls does succumb to style over substance, as if it doesn't quite have the confidence to let its big, bold narrative unfold without any bells and whistles.” — Jon O'Brien, The Daily Beast, 8 Aug. 2025 Did you know? Picture yourself serenely succumbing to sleep. Chances are that in the mental image you've just formed, you are in a recumbent position—that is, lying down. The position is baked into the etymology: both succumb and recumbent trace back to cumbere, a Latin verb meaning “to lie down.” While recumbency is typically literal, succumbing is about figuratively lying down before something—yielding to it, ceasing to resist it. The word is most often used with regard to faults and foibles and demise—people succumb to temptation, plants succumb to blight—but the word can be applied in happier contexts too, as when one succumbs to sleep in a quiet spot on a sunny afternoon.
