Beim Anschlag auf den Berliner CSD wurde eine Frau getötet und 29 Personen verletzt. Auch sonst nehmen die Bedrohungen queerer Menschen in Deutschland zu. Laut Lagebericht des Bundeskriminalamts zur Sicherheit von LGBTIQ* hat sich die Zahl der Straftaten im Bereich „Sexuelle Orientierung“ und „Geschlechtsbezogene Diversität“ seit 2010 fast verzehnfacht. Was sind die Ursachen? Wie geschlossen tritt die Szene auf? Und wie groß ist die Bedrohung durch islamistische Homophobie? Doris Maull diskutiert mit Tugay Saraç – Queerbeauftragter, Ibn Rushd-Goethe Moschee in Berlin; Michael Roth – Publizist und Ex-Bundestagsabgeordneter, SPD; Mari Günther – Fachreferentin Bundesverband Trans*

Joining us now on Joy 94.9's Saturday Magazine is Anna Brown, CEO of Equality Australia. Every four and a half years, Australia's human rights record is put under the microscope by the international community at the United Nations in Geneva. Following our latest Universal Periodic Review, member states issued over 300 recommendations to strengthen human rights in Australia—including nine specifically designed to protect LGBTIQ+ people. However, the Federal Government has formally responded by rejecting every single one of those nine LGBTIQ+ recommendations. LGBTIQ+ Australians were the only marginalised group where not a single recommendation was accepted. Anna, welcome back to Saturday Magazine.” On 25 June 2026, Equality Australia issued a statement criticizing the Federal Government’s response to Australia's fourth Universal Periodic Review (UPR) at the UN Human Rights Council. The government rejected all nine recommendations specific to LGBTIQ+ rights—making LGBTIQ+ Australians the only marginalized group to have 100% of its dedicated recommendations declined. Total Recommendations Received: 332 recommendations from over 120 member states. LGBTIQ+ Specific Recommendations: 9 total. Acceptance Rate for LGBTIQ+ Recommendations: 0% (0 accepted out of 9).

After 50 Days of Transformation, it's time to stop, look back, and celebrate what God has been doing in our lives.Transformation isn't about becoming worthy of being a new creation. In Christ, we already are a new creation. The journey is about learning to live out what God has already made true in us.In this message, New Season, New Fruit, we explore what it means to recognise the fruit God has been growing in our spiritual, physical, mental, emotional, relational, financial and vocational lives.Like a tree planted by streams of water, real transformation happens as we remain rooted in Christ and planted in community. Sometimes the growth is dramatic. Sometimes it happens quietly beneath the surface. But even the smallest signs of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control are worth noticing and celebrating.Spring has arrived. The winter is past. A new season is here.To support the ministry of Melbourne Inclusive Church go to: www.michurch.org.au/give Melbourne Inclusive Church boldly and proudly proclaims Christ's equal love for all people regardless of their ability, socio-economic status, sexual orientation, age, gender, race, ethnicity, or culture. Melbourne Inclusive Church is part of the EMI Global family of churches.

We’re joined by Rose, Marc, and Jesse, three Thorne Harbour Health volunteers to hear about the volunteer moments that have stuck with them, from welcoming people newly diagnosed at the Positive Living Centre to running red ribbon stalls and corporate workshops. We unpack why volunteering at an event can be more rewarding than simply attending one, and how a regular shift can become a fixture you can really miss. Jack also speaks with them about how the organisation’s history shapes its work today, from its founding as the Victorian AIDS Council to its evolution in a PrEP-era landscape. If you’re curious about becoming a vollie but unsure how to fit it around work, study, or life, we pull practical advice from their combined decades of experience.

What dream has God placed in your heart—and what's standing in the way?In the final week of our 50 Days of Transformation, we explore our vocational life—not simply our job or career, but the deeper calling and purpose God has placed within us.Through the story of David and Goliath, we discover that the biggest giants we face aren't always the ones in front of us. Sometimes they are delay, discouragement, disapproval and doubt.David shows us another way. He remembered God's faithfulness, used what God had already placed in his hands, refused to be defined by the voices of the naysayers, and stepped forward expecting God to act.Whatever God has placed in your heart, the presence of giants doesn't mean the dream is over.Remember what God has done.Use what God has given you.Ignore the naysayers.Expect God to act.The 50 Days of Transformation may be concluding—but our transformation is just beginning.Sermon notes: https://www.michurch.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/50-Days-of-Transformation-Week-8-My-Vocational-Life-Notes.pdfTo support the ministry of Melbourne Inclusive Church go to: www.michurch.org.au/give Melbourne Inclusive Church boldly and proudly proclaims Christ's equal love for all people regardless of their ability, socio-economic status, sexual orientation, age, gender, race, ethnicity, or culture. Melbourne Inclusive Church is part of the EMI Global family of churches.

In this episode of Well Well Well we’re talking about peptides. If you’ve heard the word whispered around the gym, the group chat, or your “For You” page lately, you’re not alone. We’re joined by Renae Fomiatti and Gemma Nourse from the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society at La Trobe University. To be clear, they are sociologists, not medical doctors. So this conversation should not be taken as medical advice, and we’re not here to sell you on them or scare you off them. This is a conversation about what peptides are, and why everyone’s suddenly talking about them. We get into: what a peptide actually is, the gap between what’s prescription and what’s not, who’s using them and how they’re getting them, and what the risks are when products come with no quality control. We’ll also dig into something bigger: why appearance has quietly folded into “health optimisation,” and what that means for our communities’ relationship with our bodies. And to be upfront, we're not talking about the exact legal status of possession, anything on dosing, and clinical specifics, since we simply don’t have a medical expert in the room for that. If today’s conversation raises questions for you, raise them with your GP. That’s exactly what they're for. For more on Performance and Image Enhancing Drugs (PIEDs), head to thejuice.org.au.

What if financial transformation isn't primarily about how much money we have, but about how we think about what God has placed in our hands?In Week 7 of 50 Days of Transformation, we explore Financial Health: How to Think About Money God's Way.Through Jesus' surprising parable of the shrewd manager in Luke 16, we discover that money was never meant to master us—it's a tool we can steward with wisdom, generosity and purpose.We'll explore how:Everything ultimately belongs to GodMoney reveals what we love and trustMoney is a tool for God's purposesWe can invest what we have in things that last for eternityWe are called to faithfully steward what God places in our handsJesus reminds us: “You cannot serve God and be enslaved to money.” — Luke 16:13 (NLT)Financial freedom begins when our thinking changes. Instead of loving money and using people, Jesus invites us to love people and use money—to bless others, build relationships and invest in what lasts.Sermon notes: https://www.michurch.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/50-Days-of-Transformation-Week-7-My-Financial-Life-Notes.pdfTo support the ministry of Melbourne Inclusive Church go to: www.michurch.org.au/giveMelbourne Inclusive Church boldly and proudly proclaims Christ's equal love for all people regardless of their ability, socio-economic status, sexual orientation, age, gender, race, ethnicity, or culture.Melbourne Inclusive Church is part of the EMI Global family of churches.

Carolyn Gillespie, CEO of Women’s Health in the North and chair of the Victorian Women’s Health Services Network joins us to discuss women’s health during Women’s Health Week. We explore why Victoria’s 35-year-old women’s health infrastructure is among the best in Australia, and why gender equality is the most pressing driver of women’s health outcomes. Jake and Joel also discuss with Carolyn the Victorian parliamentary inquiry into women’s pain, the everyday realities of the gender health gap, and what genuinely inclusive care looks like for queer women and gender diverse people. Finally, we tackle mental health, social connection, and gender based violence as core public health issues, and share one small step listeners can take for their own wellbeing this Women’s Health Week.

Why can relationships be so difficult—even with the people we love most?In Week 6 of our 50 Days of Transformation journey, we explore how God wants to transform our relational life. Looking back to Genesis 3, we discover three fears that can quietly damage our relationships:Fear of exposure – What if people really knew me?Fear of disapproval – What if I'm criticised or rejected?Fear of losing control – What happens if I allow myself to be vulnerable? These fears can lead us to hide, become defensive, blame others, or try to control the people around us.God's answer to relational fear isn't simply greater confidence or better communication techniques—it is learning to live securely in God's love.“Such love has no fear, because perfect love expels all fear.” — 1 John 4:18 (NLT)In this message, we explore three daily practices that can transform the way we relate to others: surrendering our hearts to God, remembering how deeply God loves us, and offering that same love to others. When we know that we are completely accepted, unconditionally loved, totally forgiven and deeply valuable, fear begins to lose its grip. We become freer to be vulnerable, extend grace, forgive, hope and love others as Christ has loved us.Transformation isn't just about changing what we do. God wants to transform the way we think, love and relate—from the inside out.Sermon Notes: https://www.michurch.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/50-Days-of-Transformation-Week-6-My-Relational-Life-Notes.pdfTo support the ministry of Melbourne Inclusive Church go to: www.michurch.org.au/giveMelbourne Inclusive Church boldly and proudly proclaims Christ's equal love for all people regardless of their ability, socio-economic status, sexual orientation, age, gender, race, ethnicity, or culture.Melbourne Inclusive Church is part of the EMI Global family of churches.

We dive into why LGBTQIA youth spaces like Wear It Purple Day remain crucial nearly fifteen years after launching, as queer young Australians continue to experience bullying and discrimination. Reb from Minus18 shares powerful stories from Queer Formal events where isolated young people meet their community for the first time and experience life-changing affirmation.

God created us with emotions — but our emotions were never meant to control us.In Week 5 of 50 Days of Transformation, we explore what it means to experience our emotions honestly while learning to manage them with wisdom, truth, and the help of Holy Spirit.Our feelings matter, but feelings aren't always facts. Instead of ignoring what we feel or allowing our emotions to dictate our decisions, we can develop emotional maturity — learning to feel fully while faithfully stewarding what is happening within us.In this message, we discover three practical steps for dealing with difficult emotions:NAME IT — What am I really feeling, and what triggered it?CHALLENGE IT — Is what I'm feeling actually true? Is it helping me or hurting me?CHANGE IT OR CHANNEL IT — Does this emotion need to change, or can God use it for something good?We also look at how being filled with Holy Spirit, managing our words, and filling our hearts with God's Word can transform our emotional lives from the inside out.Emotional transformation isn't about pretending we don't feel. It's about learning to bring what we feel into the presence of God and allowing truth and Holy Spirit to shape what happens next.Sermon Notes: https://www.michurch.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/50-Days-of-Transformation-Week-5-My-Emotional-Life.pdfTo support the ministry of Melbourne Inclusive Church go to: www.michurch.org.au/giveMelbourne Inclusive Church boldly and proudly proclaims Christ's equal love for all people regardless of their ability, socio-economic status, sexual orientation, age, gender, race, ethnicity, or culture.Melbourne Inclusive Church is part of the EMI Global family of churches.

In Week 4 of our 50 Days of Transformation series, we turn our attention to our mental life and discover why God is interested not only in changing our circumstances, but in transforming our minds.Romans 12:2 reminds us that transformation happens as God changes the way we think. But that means learning an important truth: we don't have to believe every thought that enters our mind.In this message, we explore three daily choices that can help us develop a healthier, transformed mind:Feed your mind with truth — intentionally fill your thinking with God's Word and promises.Free your mind from destructive thoughts — recognise the lies and strongholds that influence how you see yourself, God and your circumstances, and learn to take your thoughts captive.Focus your mind on the right things — turn your attention toward Jesus, others and eternity.Mental transformation isn't about pretending everything is okay or ignoring genuine mental health struggles. It's about learning to intentionally manage what we allow to shape our thinking and creating room for the Holy Spirit to produce life and peace within us.Transform your mind, and you transform your life.Sermon Notes: https://www.michurch.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/50-Days-of-Transformation-Week-4-My-Mental-Life-Notes.pdf To support the ministry of Melbourne Inclusive Church go to: www.michurch.org.au/giveMelbourne Inclusive Church boldly and proudly proclaims Christ's equal love for all people regardless of their ability, socio-economic status, sexual orientation, age, gender, race, ethnicity, or culture.Melbourne Inclusive Church is part of the EMI Global family of churches.

Stress has become one of the defining challenges of modern life. Whether it's worry, hurry, conflict, uncertainty, or the constant pressure of everyday living, many of us carry burdens that God never intended us to bear alone.In Week 3 of our 50 Days of Transformation series, we discover that one of the Bible's most loved passages—Psalm 23—is far more than a comforting psalm. It is a practical guide to living with God's peace in the middle of life's pressures.Together we'll explore:• The seven biggest sources of modern stress.• Seven life-changing habits found in Psalm 23.• How God provides peace, rest, guidance, protection, and hope.• Practical ways to reduce stress while growing in faith and trust.Transformation isn't just about changing how we think—it's about allowing God to reshape every area of our lives, including our physical wellbeing.If this message encouraged you, we'd love for you to subscribe, like this video, and share it with someone who could use God's peace today.Sermon Notes: https://www.michurch.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/50-Days-of-Transformation-Week-3-My-Physical-Life-Notes.pdfTo support the ministry of Melbourne Inclusive Church go to: www.michurch.org.au/giveMelbourne Inclusive Church boldly and proudly proclaims Christ's equal love for all people regardless of their ability, socio-economic status, sexual orientation, age, gender, race, ethnicity, or culture.Melbourne Inclusive Church is part of the EMI Global family of churches.

Through the powerful story of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15), we'll discover that no matter how far we've wandered, God is already searching for us and running toward us with grace.Together we'll learn the four steps back to God:• Get Fed Up – becoming dissatisfied with spiritual drift.• Own Up – honestly turning back to God.• Offer Up – moving from "Give me" to "Make me."• Lift Up – responding with gratitude, worship, and praise.We'll also explore practical habits that strengthen our relationship with God, including regular spiritual check-ups, worship, communion, and living a life centred on Christ.Transformation doesn't happen overnight—but every step toward God changes us from the inside out.If this message encouraged you, we'd love for you to like, subscribe, and share it with someone who needs the reminder that God's love is fully inclusive and it's never too late to come home.Sermon Notes: https://www.michurch.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/50-Days-of-Transformation-Week-2-My-Spiritual-Life-Notes.pdfTo support the ministry of Melbourne Inclusive Church go to: www.michurch.org.au/giveMelbourne Inclusive Church boldly and proudly proclaims Christ's equal love for all people regardless of their ability, socio-economic status, sexual orientation, age, gender, race, ethnicity, or culture.Melbourne Inclusive Church is part of the EMI Global family of churches.

What if the life God has for you doesn't happen by accident—but by intention?In Week 1 of our 50 Days of Transformation series, we lay the foundation for lasting change by discovering why biblical goal setting is a spiritual discipline.Drawing from Romans 12:1–2, we'll explore six biblical reasons to set goals and discover the three things God has already provided to help us succeed.Whether you're longing for growth in your spiritual life, relationships, health, finances, career, or emotional wellbeing, this message will challenge you to stop living on autopilot and begin living intentionally with God.Join us as we begin this exciting 50-day journey of transformation and discover what God can do for and through you.Sermon Notes: https://www.michurch.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/50-Days-of-Transformation-Week-1-Setting-Goals-Notes.pdf To support the ministry of Melbourne Inclusive Church go to: www.michurch.org.au/giveMelbourne Inclusive Church boldly and proudly proclaims Christ's equal love for all people regardless of their ability, socio-economic status, sexual orientation, age, gender, race, ethnicity, or culture.Melbourne Inclusive Church is part of the EMI Global family of churches.

Today I welcome back Róisín Michaux — the Irish writer based in Brussels who covers women's rights and free speech in the context of the transgender movement — for her second appearance on the show. When I booked this interview I had no idea what we'd cover; I simply trusted her to bring something worth digging into. What she brought is her ongoing investigation into the new World Health Organization guidelines for global transgender healthcare, and I'm hearing most of it for the first time right alongside the listener.Róisín walks me through how a 2019 reclassification in the International Classification of Diseases — moving gender identity out of mental health and into sexual health in order to “depathologize” it — created a conundrum: how do you get hormones and surgeries reimbursed for a condition that's no longer a condition? That question, she argues, is the thread that connects the WHO's guideline development group to a much larger story about HIV funding, the Global Fund, Open Society Foundations money, and decades of AIDS-elimination targets.We get into the “third gender” populations of India, Thailand, and Latin America; why so many of these vulnerable young men end up in prostitution and at high risk of HIV; and how offering the hormones and surgeries people want became a mechanism for getting them into clinics and onto antiretrovirals. We also cover the insurance-coding sleight of hand happening closer to home — mastectomies billed as “scar repair,” girls documented as males with gynecomastia — and what it all means for the parents and therapists trying to make sense of what their kids and clients are actually saying.The question the episode keeps returning to: if the price of ending AIDS is medicalizing vulnerable kids and reframing whole populations as trans, is that a victory worth claiming?Róisín Michaux is an Irish writer based in Brussels, Belgium. She writes about women's rights and free speech in the context of the transgender movement. She is specifically interested in LGBTIQ activism, activists' relationship to EU/European bureaucracies, the funding they receive, and how it has all led to deep and anti-democratic policy capture. She has 2 kids and a cocker spaniel. Follow her on Substack at Peaked or on X @RoisinMichaux. Listen to our previous conversation: 206.

En este episodio de la serie del mes del Orgullo de Latin America Today, Maureen Meyer, vicepresidenta de Programas de WOLA, conversa con Braulio Abarca, activista LGBTIQ+ nicaragüense exiliado, defensor de derechos humanos, y cofundador del Colectivo Nicaragua Nunca Más, sobre lo que significa defender los derechos de las comunidades LGBTIQ+ desde el exilio. Desde 2018, más de 900 mil nicaragüenses se han visto forzados al exilio. Esa cifra incluye a defensores de derechos humanos como Braulio, quien tuvo que salir del país tras la crisis sociopolítica desatada bajo la dictadura de Daniel Ortega y Rosario Murillo — y que, años después, tuvo que exiliarse por segunda vez, esta vez de Costa Rica a España, perseguido por la represión transnacional del régimen. Braulio ofrece un relato franco de la precariedad legal, las redes de apoyo limitadas, y la tensión constante entre sobrevivir y seguir militando en un país que no es el propio. También habla de lo que persiste dentro de Nicaragua: una "triple discriminación" que enfrentan las personas LGBTIQ+ por su identidad, por oponerse a la dictadura, y por otras identidades que se entrecruzan, incluyendo casos documentados de transfeminicidio y crímenes de odio que con frecuencia quedan impunes. La conversación cierra con una reflexión sobre lo que lo mantiene en la lucha —la verdad, la justicia y la esperanza del retorno— y con un llamado claro a la comunidad internacional: protección temporal para las personas desplazadas, presión sostenida sobre la dictadura, y acompañamiento a largo plazo para la futura reconstrucción democrática de Nicaragua. Este episodio es parte de la serie del mes del Orgullo de WOLA, que destaca los derechos LGBTQ+, la democracia y el espacio cívico en las Américas.
