This episode is time sensitive, but also serves as a stark warning to communities across the nation to protect children and the parental rights of your local community. Evil is on the move, and it's stealthily going after the most vulnerable - your kids. It's time to take off the blinders, be aware, get engaged, and be warriors for righteousness. For decades now, the battleground in America has been the children. It's time to take a stand on this issue and support those on the frontlines of the war over America's future culture. (00:00) Standing Against Evil in Huntington Beach(06:46) Protecting Children From Inappropriate Library Books(13:18) Exposing Deception in Huntington Beach(21:58) Library Books(26:58) Protecting Children From Harmful Content(41:35) Taking a Stand Against Inappropriate Content(54:00) Fighting Against Evil in Huntington Beach(01:08:01) Urgent Call to Protect Children(01:19:13) Spreading the Word and Support Website: https://www.protecthbkids.com/Donate: https://www.efundraisingconnections.com/c/ProtectDonate by mail: 6771 Warner Ave. #3059Huntington Beach, CA 92605 Website: https://www.takebackthecommunity.com/ CONNECT WITH KAREN ENGLAND:Website: https://www.capitolresource.org/Website: https://takebacktheclassroom.com/ CONNECT WITH CALVARY CHAPEL OF THE HARBOUR:Website: https://www.ccoth.com/home CONNECT WITH PASTOR JACK:Website: https://jackhibbs.com/ Instagram: http://bit.ly/2FCyXpO Facebook: https://bit.ly/2WZBWV0 YouTube:  https://bit.ly/437xMHn DAZE OF DECEPTION BOOK:https://jackhibbs.com/daze-of-deception/CALLED TO TAKE A BOLD STAND PRE-ORDER:https://tinyurl.com/33d5dpaj Did you know we have a Real Life Network?

Librarians from all over the state are gathered Thursday for a Minnesota Library Association conference. And it comes as their work is at the center of local politics. Last year, state lawmakers passed a bill to block public schools from banning books because of the viewpoints or messages they portray. But that hasn't stopped the debate about which books students should be able to access.At the end of an impassioned meeting Tuesday night, the board of Osseo Public Schools changed its policy to allow community members to challenge books in school libraries. Opponents of the measure call it a book ban policy.Ashley Khron is an elementary school librarian in Edina and the Intellectual Freedom Chair of the Minnesota Library Association.

Join me on a new series as I share my journey from buying books to renting them from the library, a transition I began in January 2022. I discuss the numerous benefits of this approach, such as saving money, reducing clutter, and the accountability of return deadlines. Over the past two years, I've read at least 24 books and started taking notes to enhance my learning. This journey has inspired me to solidify the content by teaching it, interviewing authors, and reviewing their books on the show. In this episode, I kick things off by exploring "Storyworthy: Engage, Teach, Persuade, and Change Your Life Through the Power of Storytelling" by Matthew Dicks, highlighting the importance of storytelling in public speaking and encouraging listeners to check out The Moth and its podcast for inspiration. Next, we delve into the art of storytelling through the expertise of Matthew Dicks, a seasoned storyteller who has won the Moth Story Slam 36 times and the Grand Slam five times. We'll discuss the significance of storytelling in various contexts, from marketing to personal growth, and how everyone has story-worthy moments, even if they seem ordinary. Drawing insights from Dicks's book "Storyworthy," I'll share techniques such as keeping a story log and identifying the five-second story to help craft engaging narratives. Additionally, I'll introduce a new series where I review impactful books and invite their authors for interviews, encouraging listeners to send in their book recommendations. If you're an author interested in having your book reviewed or being interviewed, reach out via email or social media. I'm excited to embark on this enriching literary journey with you!   Check out Storyworthy: Engage, Teach, Persuade, and Change Your Life through the Power of Storytelling by Matthew Dicks. https://amzn.to/3SMe6Gz    Let's keep the conversation going!Website: martaspirk.com Instagram: @martaspirk Facebook: Marta Spirk Want to be my next guest on The Empowered Woman Podcast?Apply here: www.martaspirk.com/podcastguest  Watch my TEDx talk: http://bit.ly/martatedx  Get ready to take notes and elevate your business's presence as we share over 30 visibility-boosting ideas (access it here: www.martaspirk.com/visibility) and introduce a mastermind program designed to keep you accountable and support your entrepreneurial journey.

A salacious book, a defiant school board, and a pastor who challenged a culture! It was a story that grabbed national headlines. A local pastor shocked a community by reading wildly inappropriate content at a school board meeting from a book that very board had allowed to be part of the school's library. This bold act ignited a conversation about how much authority was being stripped away from parents regarding what their children were learning. Since that moment, Pastor John Amanchukwu has continued confronting school administrations across the country in a fierce fight to protect the next generation. Miss last week's episode?

Hear about three very different books recommended by Michael Gregg, library associate for the Troy Public Library. “Satan Is Real: The Ballad of the Louvin Brothers” (Charlie Louvin with Benjamin Whitmer, 2012) tells the story of “one of the most legendary country duos of all time.” A young adult book “The Skull: A Tyrolean Folktale” (Jon Klassen, 2023) develops the story of a young girl drawn to a lonely house where the host is a talking disembodied skull, and how the girl must save them both. Finally, Michael calls “The Stench of Honolulu” (2013), by former SNL writer Jack Handey, a “laugh-out-loud funny” fictional story of two friends on a quest for a Golden Monkey in the mysterious land of Honolulu. He also mentions "Every Man for Himself and God Against All: A Memoir" (Werner Herzog, 2023). On a more serious note, Michael explains why the Lansingburgh branch of the library is temporarily closed due to recent flooding. For more details, visit www.thetroylibrary.org.

The organization, now an official tax-exempt nonprofit, has raised around $17,000, providing funds for various activities for military kids. Leighanne was recently named one of the winners at a "Shark Tank"-style competition held at Georgia Tech by the National Society of High School Scholars, securing $10,000. The organization was initially created for Gold Star children but has expanded to help other families in need. STORY 2: 18 residents displaced in Smyrna apartment fire A fire at MAA Spring Luxury Apartments in Smyrna displaced 18 residents on Thursday night. The fire started on a balcony around 10 p.m., but firefighters contained it to one side of the building, preventing it from spreading to adjacent apartments. Three companies and three engines responded to the incident, and there were no reported injuries among responders or residents. The cause of the fire remains undetermined, and the American Red Cross is assisting the displaced residents. STORY 3: 'The Spark': Acworth Citizen Recognized for Historic Preservation Abbie Parks, a resident of Acworth, Georgia, has received the Nancy Smith Maxwell Award from the Save Acworth History Foundation for her exceptional efforts in preserving local history. Parks, who moved to Acworth in 1996, has played a key role in safeguarding the city's heritage. She served on and chaired the Acworth Historic Preservation Commission, worked with the city's tourism board, and chaired the Cobb County Historic Preservation Commission. Parks has been instrumental in saving iconic institutions like the Cowan Historic Mill and the Logan Farm House. The award recognizes her significant contributions to Acworth's historical preservation.     We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

His optimism is based on the University of Georgia's economic growth model, predicting Georgia's GDP to outpace the U.S. in 2024. Thomas envisions accelerating growth for the new city of Mableton, emphasizing the importance of small business incubators and workforce development centers. Economic development directors from Austell, Powder Springs, and Smyrna also discussed achievements from 2023 and outlined goals for 2024, including downtown revitalization, community engagement, and addressing workforce challenges through creative solutions and partnerships. STORY 5: Rain Doesn't Dampen Spirits of Automotive Diehards Despite a misty rain, car enthusiasts gathered at Piedmont Church Marietta for the monthly Piedmont Church Cruise-In, showcasing classic cars. The event, held every first Saturday of the month, typically draws over a hundred cars. Despite the weather, some enthusiasts showcased their vehicles, including a 1930 Ford Model A owned by Taylor Herbick, who plans to drive it to Vancouver, British Columbia, with modern adjustments for a 2,200-mile trip. Other participants, like Robert Tucker with a 1946 Ford body on a modern Ford Explorer frame, and David Harrup with a 1951 Chevrolet Deluxe, highlighted their unique vehicles and craftsmanship.   We'll be back in a moment  Break: DRAKE – INGLES 3   STORY 6: Library Books, Redistricting, Cityhood, Antisemitism: Cobb Lawmakers Preview 2024 Legislative Session In an interview ahead of the Georgia General Assembly session, Cobb County lawmakers discussed various issues, including education, school board maps, passport fees, cityhood, mental health, healthcare, tort reform, and other legislative proposals. The conversation delved into the ongoing debate over book bans in schools, with differing opinions on the need for a rating system and concerns about explicit content. The interview also touched on the lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the Cobb Board of Education's districts and the proposal to change the process of creating new cities. Lawmakers expressed their priorities, including mental health legislation and potential changes to the state's hospital construction law. The discussion covered a range of topics, reflecting the diverse legislative agenda for the upcoming session. STORY 7: Photography Exhibition Debuts at Marietta-Cobb Art Museum The Marietta-Cobb Museum of Art celebrated the opening of its first Georgia Photography Juried Exhibition, attracting more than 300 patrons. The exhibition featured the works of 69 photographers from across Georgia, showcasing a diverse range of subjects and emotions.

Conservatives are gaining power in Grapevine, fueled by a once-fringe movement that calls on evangelicals to control the seven key “mountains” of American society — including education. A cellphone company with a Christian nationalist agenda heeds that call and sets its sights on winning school board seats in Grapevine, following an example set a year earlier in the neighboring city of Southlake.CORRECTION (Oct. 4, 2023, 08:40 p.m. ET): A previous version of this episode misstated the amount of money Patriot Mobile Action spent in school board elections in North Texas in spring 2022.

Sometimes, stupid political ideas beget even stupider political tactics. For example, a faction of right-wing Republicans want to stop public discussion and actions involving two ideas they hate: (1) racism always has been and still is a systemic problem in American society; and (2) LGBTQ people are a normal and welcome part of... well, of us – America's richly diverse society. Aside from the raw ignorance behind the GOP's denial of these realities, consider the boneheadedness of their current campaign to impose their bigotry on America: Book banning. At least 50 extremist groups are roaming from city to city, funded by deep pocket right-wingers like the Koch brothers' political network, to demand that books they don't like be removed from schools and libraries. Worse, their open assault on knowledge and our freedom to read includes the nasty tactic of demonizing and threatening librarians who resist their dictates. Librarians! As a group, these truly helpful people are a national treasure, serving the common good – yet they're getting physical threats and being fired by these little right-wing mobs. The good news is that their surreptitious attacks are being exposed, and local folks are rising up against the book banners and partisan thugs spreading their ignorance and usurping people's freedom to learn. For example, when two high school girls in Leander, Texas, asked to check out a few books from their library, they were stunned to learn that the school district had banned all the titles they requested. Students had not been informed of this censorship much less consulted. Rather than whine, the two feisty girls organized the Banned Book Club in their school, reading “prohibited” titles as a group, then meeting twice a month to discuss the books, including the ban. This is Jim Hightower saying... To get more information and to fight this right-wing repression, contact American Library Association: ala.org.
