Karl Vaters writes: How good is your church doing at greeting and keeping guests? If you're like a lot of churches, you know you could do better.I talked with Desmond Barrett about how small churches can do a better job at reaching, welcoming, and keeping guests. Desmond is the author of Helping Small Churches Win Guests: Preparing to Increase Attendance, which is a short, but very practical book that pastors will find great benefit in.Desmond and I talked about:How to reimagine the church facility from the parking lot to the pewWhy sharing updates about facility improvements is attractive to guestsWhy so many pastors and church leaders resist doing what needs to be doneWhy “we just need to attract young families” is never the answerThe good news that new Christians are not looking for programs, they're wanting to live on missionKarl's Books mentioned in the podcasts:De-sizing the Church Small Church Essentials

Mit seinen Büchern erreicht Axel Bojanowski regelmäßig eine große Leserschaft. "Was sie schon immer übers Klima wissen wollten, aber bisher nicht zu fragen wagten" wurde zum Spiegel-Bestseller. Wohl auch, da der Welt-Journalist einen Hang zu steilen Thesen hat, die von vielen nicht unwidersprochen bleiben. So findet er die Berichterstattung über den Klimawandel einseitig, die Debatten darüber von einer grünen Lobby gesteuert und Atomkraftwerke grundsätzlich prima. In seinem neuesten Buch geht der Geowissenschaftler auf positive Entwicklungen ein, die nach seinem Geschmack zu wenig Beachtung finden. "33 erstaunliche Lichtblicke, warum die Welt besser ist als wir denken" ist gerade im Westend-Verlag erschienen. Im Gespräch beweisen Axel Bojanowski und Martina Kothe, dass man über kontroverse Themen freundlich und gepflegt diskutieren kann.

According to the internet, a "comfort zone" is a place - physical or psychological - where a person feels safe, known, in control, with minimal stress or anxiety. We all have those places and a lot of us do all we can to make sure we don't have to go out of them! In our culture, being comfortable is synonymous with life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And who doesn't want that? But is that really what Jesus has called us to? We are in week three of our series, Don't Call Me a Christian - When the Label Doesn't Match the Life. We're unpacking the differences between cultural Christianity and what it looks like to be a committed Christ-follower. We're figuring out how what we believe impacts who we are - in real life ways that make us clearer representations of Jesus. I invite you to join us this Sunday at 11 AM. You'll find us online by clicking the "Join Us Sunday" button on our website or connect with us via our YouTube channel. Or, better yet,  get out of your comfort zone and come worship with us in person! Arrive early and enjoy coffee, cookies and conversation in the Lobby. We do know that 11 AM on Sunday doesn't work for everyone. If that's you, the service will be available on-demand, so you can watch at a time that works better for your schedule. We'll see you on Sunday! ----------------------------------- TAKE YOUR NEXT STEP ----------------------------------- Let us know that you were watching with us and you will be entered to receive a free prize by completing our Connection Card: http://dsf.church/ecard   Give Online: https://www.simplechurchgiving.net/App/Giving/dsf Message Notes: https://www.dayspringfellowship.com/messages   Like, comment & subscribe to stay updated!   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dayspringkeizer Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DayspringKeizer YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/dayspringfellowship Website: http://dsf.church   #dayspringkeizer #dayspringfellowship #2025sermon ___________________ Thanks for watching Dayspring Fellowship's worship service!

Ein Mitschnitt der Lesung mit Johannes Greß vom 4. April 2025. In Österreich arbeiten ungarische Paketzusteller bis zu 17 Stunden täglich und syrische Essenslieferanten für sechs Euro pro Stunde. In den vergangenen Jahren starben in Österreichs Wäldern mehr als ein Dutzend rumänische Forstarbeiter. Indische Reinigungskräfte beklagen sexuelle Übergriffe, während sie ohne Papiere die Wohnungen von Diplomat*innen und Professor*innen putzen. Die Betroffenen eint, dass sie für das Funktionieren der österreichischen Gesellschaft unverzichtbar sind – und dafür Unmenschliches erfahren. Sie haben keine Lobby, ihre Stimmen sind marginalisiert. Johannes Greß, Autor des Buches „Ausbeutung auf Bestellung“, hat mit dutzenden Betroffenen in den vergangenen Jahren gesprochen und dabei nachgezeichnet, wie Unternehmen in Österreich mit der Ausbeutung von Migrant*innen Profit machen – und wir alle dafür bezahlen. Um daran etwas zu ändern, müssen sich Gewerkschaften neu organisieren und politische Organisationsformen jenseits von Betriebsräten und Kollektivverträgen gefunden werden. Johannes Greß arbeitet als freier Journalist in Wien und recherchiert seit vielen Jahren zu prekären Arbeitsbedingungen und Migration. Sein Buch „Ausbeutung auf Bestellung“ wurde unlängst mit dem „Bruno Kreisky Preis für das politische Buch 2024“ ausgezeichnet. Am 4. April hat er sein Buch an der Universität Hamburg vorgestellt.

In this episode of CODEPINK Radio, peace activists Ann Wright and Tighe Barry join us from Malta after their Gaza Freedom Flotilla was attacked by Israel in international waters, as they attempted to break the siege on Gaza. We then hear from former Congressman Jamaal Bowman about grassroots strategies to resist the Trump administration's violent deportations of immigrants and to push back against AIPAC's efforts to silence criticism of Israel's assault on Gaza. Finally, CODEPINK co-founder Medea Benjamin reports on the controversial visit of Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir to Capitol Hill and the growing movement in Congress demanding humanitarian aid for Palestinians.

No podcast ‘Notícia No Seu Tempo’, confira em áudio as principais notícias da edição impressa do jornal ‘O Estado de S.Paulo’ desta terça-feira (06/05/2025): Nomeado na sexta-feira em substituição a Carlos Lupi, o novo ministro da Previdência Social, Wolney Queiroz, assinou proposta quando era deputado federal, em 2021, que adiou o prazo de fiscalização do desconto de mensalidades feito por associações e sindicatos na folha de pagamento de aposentados e pensionistas do INSS. A medida foi levada à Câmara por duas associações agora suspeitas de efetuar as cobranças indevidamente. Procurado, Wolney Queiroz não comentou. Uma medida provisória assinada pelo então presidente Jair Bolsonaro (PL), em 2019, estabelecia que todos os descontos na folha de pagamento precisariam ser revalidados ano a ano. Após o lobby de associações que se beneficiaram com esses descontos, o prazo foi adiado duas vezes e a necessidade de revalidação foi extinta em 2022. Wolney Queiroz estava presente na reunião em que Lupi foi alertado sobre as fraudes no INSS, em junho de 2023.

In this episode, Breht welcomes on Seth from Omaha Tenants United for an in-studio discussion about OTU's slate of recent successes organizing several tenant unions, and a subsequent new legal assault on the organization by the local landlord lobby. The legal implications of this attack are truly monumental for virtually all forms of organizing. They also discuss how landlordism is a feudal hangover with modern capitalist dynamics, the differences between tenant organizing and labor organizing, tenant organizing as a particularly potent site of struggle, and the material underpinnings of recent superstructural shifts in many people's views of landlords.

"Inconceivable!"        "You keep using that word; I do not think it means what you think it means." In the classic movie, "The Princess Bride," the character Vizzini uses the word "inconceivable" multiple times. He says it when his plans go awry or something unexpected happens. He says it to express frustration or disbelief when things don't turn out the way he thinks they should. But as Inigo Montoya points out, Vizzini doesn't understand the meaning of the word; he uses it without fully grasping its implications.  This Sunday we're beginning a new series we've titled, "Don't Call Me a Christian - When the Label Doesn't Match the Life." If you asked 10 different people what it means to be a Christian, you'd likely get 10 different answers. In our world today, the word 'Christian' means different things to different people. And a lot of people use the word without fully understanding its meaning or grasping its implications for their lives. Join us as we take the next five weeks to unpack what the Bible has to say about what it truly means to be a Christian. You'll find us online by clicking the "Join Us Sunday" button on our website or connect with us via our YouTube channel. Or, better yet, come worship with us in person! Arrive early and enjoy coffee, cookies and conversation in the Lobby. We do know that 11 AM on Sunday doesn't work for everyone. If that's you, the service will be available on-demand, so you can watch at a time that works better for your schedule.

This week on In the Lobby, I'm joined by Cori Kramer, Executive Director of Center Forward — an organization dedicated to bringing people together across the political spectrum to find common-sense solutions.Cori shares her perspective on why the political middle matters now more than ever, how Center Forward works to build coalitions around practical policy goals, and what it's like to navigate an increasingly polarized environment.We also talk about her path to leadership, the lessons she's learned from Capitol Hill to coalition-building, and the role of patience, persistence, and pragmatism in public affairs today.It's a refreshing and insightful conversation about the power of finding common ground — and why the center still has a vital role to play in Washington.

Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago and Stephen M. Walt of Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government, was one of the most controversial articles in recent memory. Originally published in the London Review of Books in March 2006, it provoked both howls of outrage and cheers of gratitude for challenging what had been a taboo issue in America: the impact of the Israel lobby on U.S. foreign policy.

Trump has tried to claim that he favors "Main Street over Wall Street." Unfortunately, by pushing aggressive low-interest-rate monetary policy, Trump has put himself squarely in the camp of “Wall Street over Main Street.”Be sure to follow the Loot and Lobby podcast at Mises.org/LL

Trans Lobby Suffers Major Defeat + Are FEMINISTS To Blame for Gender Ideology? by New Culture Forum

De brutalen hebben de halve wereld. Dat moet ASML hebben gedacht toen het op hoge poten bij Donald Trump aanklopte. ASML wil namelijk vrijstelling van Amerikaanse invoerheffingen. ASML verscheept onderdelen heen en weer tussen de VS en Europa, maar wil volgens het FD een opeenstapeling van heffingen voorkomen. Deze aflevering kijken we hoe ASML de onderhandelingen met Trump aan moet gaan. De president wil altijd iets terug, wat moet de maker van chipmachines geven aan de Amerikanen? Verder is het de aflevering waarin ceo's een hoofdrol opeisen. Bij IMCD en FlowTraders stappen de ceo's onverwachts op. Bij FlowTraders was de paniek onder beleggers zo groot dat de beurshandel stilgelegd moest worden. De exit van de topman en de slechte cijfers zorgen daar voor paniek.Bij ABN Amro en Unilever zijn de hoogste bazen al vervangen en de nieuwe bazen hebben grote plannen. Zo wil de ceo van ABN nu écht beter op de kosten gaan letten. Die van Unilever ook, maar daarnaast komt hij ook met een bijzondere voorspelling. Die importtarieven, die raken het bedrijf niet echt.Opvallend, helemaal omdat grote concurrent Procter & Gamble waarschuwt dat die handelsoorlog er wél in hakt. Net als een paar andere Amerikaanse bedrijven, die zelfs hun hele outlook intrekken.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Travel companies have ramped up their lobbying efforts significantly in early 2025, with spending surpassing amounts seen in previous presidential terms, and the U.S. Travel Association alone investing over $1 million. In Thailand, tourism revenue goals for 2025 are being lowered due to a steep decline in Chinese tourists, influenced by regional safety concerns. Meanwhile, Airbus has postponed its electric commercial aircraft plans, citing supply challenges with green hydrogen, though it remains committed to the long-term project.

In this interview, our Moore's Lobby host, Daniel Bogdanoff, chats with Rodger Richey, Vice President of Development Tools and Academic Programs at Microchip Technology. Rodger shares how his passion for engineering began with childhood curiosity, dismantling and repairing devices like a microwave. Those early hands-on experiences laid the foundation for his electrical engineering career, which started with designing underwater electronics for the U.S. Navy. Rodger discusses the evolution of development tools and the growing complexity of embedded systems over his 30-year tenure at Microchip. He emphasizes the importance of creating accessible and user-friendly tools, such as IDEs and development boards, to help developers tackle increasingly sophisticated projects. The integration of AI into development workflows is a major milestone, enabling enhanced productivity and better debugging. Rodger also highlights his involvement in academia, spearheading initiatives like virtual internships and hands-on learning programs to better prepare students for industry roles. By providing real-world tools and fostering collaboration, these programs aim to bridge the gap between theoretical education and practical application. Rodger attributes his longevity at Microchip to its strong values, collaborative culture, and dedication to innovation, which have remained consistent even as the company has grown significantly.

Two firefighters have died, one is seriously injured, and another thirteen were injured less seriously, when a Porsche Taycan electric sports car crashed and exploded around 4pm on Wednesday, in an underground car park in Madrid.In other news, despite mounting evidence of the danger, there's still no plan to mitigate the risk posed by EVs among us. If you think there's any kind of risk management plan in place here in ‘Straya, I'll be auctioning off the Harbour Bridge this weekend. This is your opportunity to score an historic piece of an internationally recognised ‘Strayan icon, dude.What appears to have happened in this tragedy is:"According to eyewitness accounts, the fire began when a resident, identified only as Javier, attempted to park his electric Porsche Taycan. Reports suggest that he may have confused the accelerator with the brake, crashing into the garage entrance and causing the vehicle to emit thick smoke and flames."That's from the Pinnacle Gazatte in Spain. “Confused the accelerator and the brake”: Yeah. Sounds like the the Porsche owner."Initial hypotheses suggest that the first of the deceased firefighters was caught in a blast that affected several parked cars. This large-scale explosion was allegedly caused by a fire in an electric car which had crashed when its owner was driving it into the garage. The second firefighter died from the inhalation of fumes while he was being transferred to the University Hospital of Getafe. All the injured and deceased were members of the Alcorcón fire brigade."Lobby groups and other arsehole EV advocates will not allow any speed humps on the superhighway to Electric Utopia, with its tantalising pot of ‘net zero' at the end of the rainbow. Speed humps such as reasonable safety measures.Apparently, the safety of the public, and of firefighters, is not as important as looking good to other unhinged climate zealots who never studied.

Two reasons why Trump won't/can't get rid of the IRS:1. It's political suicide to get rid of payroll taxes.2. Tariff revenue isn't nearly enough to fund the federal government at the levels the welfare/spending-addicted voters demand.Be sure to follow the Loot and Lobby podcast at Mises.org/LL

What role have fossil fuel lobbyists really played in climate negotiations over the past three decades? And what impact do they continue to have on climate progress today?In this episode, Christiana Figueres, Tom Rivett-Carnac and Paul Dickinson explore the history of this often unseen influence, ask why fossil fuel lobbyists have become so embedded in the COP system, and consider what levers are emerging to disrupt their involvement in domestic and international politics.This episode also features another panel from our live event at The Conduit, inspired by the RSC's Olivier-nominated production of Kyoto, and hosted by the Financial Times' Pilita Clark. She's joined by climate lawyer Tessa Khan, climate finance and energy expert Kirsty Hamilton, and historian of climate change negotiations and former UNFCCC secretariat Joanna Depledge, to unpack how industry lobbyists - from oil majors to car manufacturers - used misinformation, procedural manipulation, and political influence to undermine progress in Kyoto and beyond.So, how have fossil fuel lobby tactics changed in the years since Kyoto? Have they achieved everything they set out to? And what might the world look like if the industry had never sought to delay and derail climate negotiations - or, better yet, had taken responsibility for its role in the green transition?Learn more
