Summary In this special episode of InContext, Dr. Michael Easley sits down with the late Dr. Voddie Baucham, Jr.—pastor, professor, and cultural apologist—for a wide-ranging conversation about faith, family, and living with conviction in a confused culture. Voddie shares his remarkable journey to Christ, from growing up without the gospel to encountering Christ in college and pursuing a call to ministry. At the time of this conversation, he was serving as Dean of the School of Divinity at African Christian University in Lusaka, Zambia. With candor and humor, he reflects on raising nine children, the discipline of homeschooling, and the patience and selflessness required in marriage. He also describes how God's providence led his family to Zambia, teaching them to live with “open hands.” The discussion moves into cultural apologetics, where Voddie explains his bold approach to addressing issues like BLM, social justice, marriage, and sexuality—not by chasing headlines but by exposing false foundations and pointing people back to God's design. Though he has since gone home to be with the Lord, this conversation remains a testimony to Voddie's unwavering courage, pastoral heart, and legacy of faithfulness that continues to inspire. Key Takeaways Voddie's journey to Christ began in college, shaping his lifelong ministry calling. Raising nine children taught him discipline, faith, and the need for patience. God called the Bauchams to Zambia through providential open-handed obedience. Cultural apologetics requires exposing false foundations, not chasing headlines. Modern education and parenting philosophies leave generations unable to think critically. Believers are called to steward “what's in their hand” for God's purposes.

In honor of theologian, educator, and best-selling author, Dr. Voddie Baucham, the Lighthouse Faith podcast is re-posting his episode of May 2021. Dr. Bauacham died suddenly on Thursday, September 25th, 2025, "after suffering an emergency medical incident," according to The Founders website. Baucham may not have been a household name like a Charlie Kirk or TD Jakes, but he was quite well-known among conservative evangelicals. As a conservative African American pastor who served as Dean of Theology at African Christian University in Lusaka, Zambia, he was a bit of an enigma to many. He didn't fit the mold of a black Baptist preacher because he dared call out the sins of his own race; sins like rampant fatherlessness and out-of-wedlock births, while criticizing the embrace of Critical Race Theory. But he was also not totally touted by white Christians either, perhaps for fear of backlash or being labeled racist. But Baucham, first and foremost, was devoted to Jesus Christ. And that is how he wanted to be remembered. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith, Baucham talks about his then-new book, "Fault Lines: The Social Justice Movement and Evangelicalism's Looming Catastrophe". It's a reminder of the tumult of the 2020 COVID shutdown and the rioting protests in the wake of the George Floyd murder. Baucham's was a voice that defied the prevailing political winds, but one that, like Charlie Kirk, spoke using faith and reason. Listen and see if you agree or not. Learn more about your ad choices.

It's Friday, September 26th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Chinese Communist court upholds prison sentence of 10 Christians On September 11, a court in the Inner Mongolian region of North China upheld a ruling that sentenced 10 Christians to prison for distributing legally published Bibles, asserting that their actions equated to an illegal business operation, reports International Christian Concern. The believers were arrested back in 2021 for purchasing legally published Bibles and reselling them at a significantly lower price as a means of evangelism. Although the Bibles were published legally, the court deemed the distribution of them illegal because the house church that the distributors belonged to was not officially registered with the Communists. Additionally, the church refused to join the government-controlled Three-Self Patriotic Movement church. Trump now wants Russia to return all captured Ukraine territory After campaigning on ending the Russia-Ukraine war, President Donald Trump had repeatedly stated any negotiations to end the war will likely include Ukraine ceding captured territory to Russia, reports American Family Radio News. However, there's now been an about-face, a big one, that sounds like Trump now supports a military counter-offensive by Ukraine. This week, President Trump stated that Ukraine, with help from NATO and the European Union, can retake all territory it has lost to Russia and restore Ukraine to its “original form.” Russian President Vladimir Putin has ignored Trump's efforts to bring peace to the region even after face-to-face talks in Alaska earlier this summer. Mark Montgomery, a former rear admiral, believes that Putin has embarrassed and irritated Trump. Listen to this soundbite from Washington Watch with Tony Perkins. MONTGOMERY: “President Trump was disrespected by President Putin. After every meeting, Putin would go back to Russia and would immediately engage in significant hypersonic missile strikes on civilian personnel in Ukraine, and as well as engaging in military kinetic actions along the front line, ignoring the president's request for Vladimir to stop, ignoring the president's request to come to the negotiating table. “I think President Trump gave President Putin all the wiggle room he could. And then he had enough.” Former FBI Director James Comey indicted on federal charges Federal prosecutors on Thursday announced they had won an indictment of former FBI Director James Comey in federal courts, reports The Epoch Times. Comey was indicted by a grand jury in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia on charges of making a false statement and obstruction in a criminal case. In a post on X, Attorney General Pam Bondi wrote, “No one is above the law. Today's indictment reflects this Department of Justice's commitment to holding those who abuse positions of power accountable for misleading the American people. We will follow the facts in this case.” Panic seizes Pentagon over Hegseth's meeting of all generals Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has ordered all top U.S. military commanders, worldwide, to convene at the Quantico, Virginia Marine Corps Base next week for a no-notice meeting with no published agenda. To call this unprecedented might be an understatement. The order covers about 800 general officers and admirals, and each of the attendees is directed to bring their senior enlisted adviser with them, reports RedState.com. It's also very likely that Hegseth will want to discuss the epidemic of non-compliance and malicious compliance wreaking havoc on the policies he and his team are attempting to put into place. For instance, trans members of the military are still being promoted even though they have been ordered discharged. DEI training continues despite Hegseth's order banning such nonsense. The Judge Advocate General Corps, the stronghold of everything leftist in all services, survived an early decapitation attack and roared back more woke and more disloyal and vindictive than ever. They openly discuss how to circumvent Department of War directives and frequently refer to their commanders who are following lawful orders from the Secretary of War as "nazis" and "war criminals." Man who shot at ICE Dallas facility sought to bring terror The 29-year-old man, Joshua Jahn, who opened fire on a Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility from a nearby roof on September 24th left behind handwritten notes at his home in Oklahoma that shared a motive for his attack – to terrorize ICE employees, reports Fox4News.com. He killed one detainee, and injured two other detainees before taking his own life. According to FBI Director Kash Patel, Jahn downloaded a document titled "Dallas County Office of Homeland Security & Emergency Management," which contained a list of Department of Homeland Security facilities. He also conducted multiple searches of ballistics and the "Charlie Kirk Shot Video" between September 23 and September 24. Jahn allegedly left handwritten notes behind that read in part, "Hopefully, this will give ICE agents real terror, to think, ‘Is there a sniper with [armor piercing] rounds on that roof?'" At a press conference, FBI agent-in-charge Joseph Rothrock said, "Jahn specifically intended to kill ICE agents. He fired at transport vehicles carrying ICE personnel, federal agents, and detainees. He also fired multiple shots into the windows of the office building, where numerous ICE employees do their jobs every day." The Department of Homeland Security is also increasing security at all ICE facilities across America. Christian leader Voddie Baucham died at 56 And finally, Voddie Baucham, an American pastor, author, and educator, died yesterday at the age of 56. TimesNowNews.com reports that Baucham had dealt with serious health issues in the past. In February 2021, he experienced “full-blown heart failure.” The following month, he underwent successful heart surgery. Later, doctors found another blockage, which led to a quadruple bypass surgery. On Facebook, his ministry wrote, “We are saddened to inform friends that our dear brother, Voddie Baucham, Jr., has left the land of the dying and entered the land of the living. Earlier today, after suffering an emergency medical incident, he entered into his rest and the immediate presence of the Savior whom he loved, trusted, and served since he was converted as a college student. Please pray for Bridget, their [nine] children, and [three] grandchildren.” Indeed, I urge you to send a sympathy card to Bridget Baucham, c/o Voddie Baucham Ministries,1020 S. Ferdon, Crestview, FL 32536. Voddie served for nine years as Dean of Theology at African Christian University in Lusaka, Zambia and was the Founding President of Founders Seminary in Cape Coral, Florida. Known for his passionate preaching, teachings on faith, and books on Christian living, Baucham left a deep mark on the Evangelical community. His books included Family Driven Faith: Doing What It Takes to Raise Sons and Daughters Who Walk with God, Family Shepherds: Calling and Equipping Men to Lead Their Homes, and Fault Lines: The Social Justice Movement and Evangelicalism's Looming Catastrophe. Listen to Voddie Baucham explain how Ephesians 6:1 has been turned upside down by the world. BAUCHAM: “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. We've turned this on its head. “First of all, your children are not yours. ‘Children, obey the state, for this is right.' We've even moved from that. “'Children obey your feelings, for this is right.' And then on top of that. We say, ‘Parents, obey your children's feelings, for this is right.' So, if Johnny comes to you and says that Johnny is now Susie, it is your job not to instruct Johnny that he's not Susie, but to instruct Susie that you affirm her as Susie. That's your job. “Your job is to obey, to submit to what it is that your child says that he or she is. Sounds like the same twisted logic of the evangelical feminist.” Psalm 116:15 says, “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints.” Watch Voddie's last talk in which he addressed Charlie Kirk's death at New St. Andrews College.

Le Mpox continue de se propager de manière inquiétante en Afrique. En 2025, les cas ont dépassé ceux de 2024. Ce sont plus de 21 000 cas de Mpox qui sont détectés dans treize pays africains, et cela risque de doubler d'ici la fin de l'année. Les coupes des aides en provenance des États-Unis et d'Europe ont fragilisé les systèmes de santé. Au total, 700 000 doses de vaccin ont été administrées, mais les stocks sont insuffisants. La Sierra Leone représente 41% des infections récentes, et la RDC est aussi en première ligne avec 24 000 cas détectés depuis début 2024. On en parle ce matin avec notre Grand invité Afrique : Jean Kaseya, directeur de l'Africa CDC (les centres africains de contrôle et de prévention des maladies). RFI : Avec les coupes budgétaires de l'aide occidentale, est-ce que vous avez déjà mesuré un impact direct sur la réponse aux épidémies ? Jean Kaseya : Je suis très clair là-dessus. Ces coupes peuvent ou sont en train d'accélérer une possible pandémie venant d'Afrique. Le nombre d'épidémies ne fait qu'augmenter d'une année à l'autre. Nous avons toujours ces problèmes d'accès aux médicaments et aux vaccins. Et ça, ce sont des conditions réunies en plus des changements climatiques, en plus de l'insécurité, pour déclencher une pandémie. Mais je sens partout, dans tous les pays où je passe, un réveil. J'étais à Lusaka, en Zambie, il y a quatre jours. Il y a deux jours, j'étais à Luanda et maintenant, je suis à Abidjan. Je vois comment les pays se mobilisent pour trouver des ressources internes et c'est partout en Afrique le cas. Justement, est-ce que ces pays arrivent à trouver des fonds ? Je vais vous donner l'exemple de la RDC où j'ai eu à rencontrer le président Tshisekedi, qui m'a informé que le pays a décidé de mettre en place une taxe de 2 % sur tous les produits importés. En plus de cela, ils ont mis une taxe sur les salaires de toutes les personnes qui travaillent de 2,5 %. Au total, cela va donner autour de 1,5 milliard de dollars additionnels chaque année. Ça, ce sont des ressources concrètes. Le président Mahama me parlait d'un programme qu'on appelle Mahama Cares Ghana. Les pays africains avancent dans la réalité. À lire aussiÉpidémie de mpox: malgré une baisse constatée en Afrique, la vigilance reste de mise En Sierra Leone, le testing est à 100 % et le pays semble se distinguer par une gestion plus efficace du Mpox ? C'est d'abord un grand effort au niveau communautaire pour mobiliser les relais communautaires. C'est former les agents de santé par rapport à la surveillance. C'est mettre en place la vaccination qu'il faut. C'est détecter la comorbidité, ça peut être le VIH ou d'autres maladies. C'est aujourd'hui l'occasion de dire et de tordre le cou à tous ceux-là qui pensent que les Africains n'aiment pas les vaccins. Ce n'est pas vrai. Aujourd'hui, dans la plupart des pays, le taux de testing est de 100 % puisque les gens acceptent de se faire tester pour savoir s'ils sont malades. Là où le vaccin est disponible, le taux de couverture est très élevé. On parle beaucoup d'un sous-groupe du virus appelé le clade 1b, réputé plus mortel : 2000 décès enregistrés depuis 2024. Qu'est-ce qui distingue cette souche des précédentes ? Nous avons tout le temps des mutations qui se font, et nous avons maintenant des combinaisons différentes dans un même endroit au Libéria, où on a eu le clade 2a et 2b au même moment. Nous avons par exemple la RDC où nous avons eu la combinaison de ces différents clades. Ce sont toutes ces combinaisons qui font qu'on ne sait pas la bombe qui peut sortir demain. À lire aussiGuinée: l'épidémie de mpox s'étend dans le pays, un an après son apparition Cet été, le CDC Africa a dévoilé son premier cadre stratégique climat et santé, pourquoi et pour quoi faire ? 70 % des épidémies que nous avons en Afrique sont ce qu'on appelle les épidémies zoonotiques. Donc ça vient de l'animal vers l'homme, interchangeables. Nous avons vu que c'est le changement climatique qui est à la base de tout cela. En plus, nous avons le choléra. Ce choléra est dû principalement aux effets liés aux inondations et à d'autres changements climatiques. Donc voilà pourquoi nous avons décidé de lancer ce plan qui lie le climat et la santé pour mieux combattre les épidémies. Justement, le choléra connaît une recrudescence majeure. Au Soudan, Alima [The Alliance for International Medical Action] estime que si rien n'est fait, la maladie pourrait tuer plus que les armes… Entre 2022 à 2024, il y a eu doublement des cas. On est passé de 104 000 cas à 254 000 cas. Sachant que la saison des pluies va commencer dans quelques jours, je m'attends à ce que si ça continue comme ça, nous puissions avoir plus de 300 000 cas. De janvier à août, nous avons 4900 décès, alors que toute l'année 2024, on n'a eu que 4700 décès. Donc, ça signifie que le choléra actuellement devient un problème de santé publique majeur que nous devons arrêter. Comment faites-vous pour lutter contre les deux épidémies de Mpox et de choléra en même temps, sans diluer les moyens et l'attention ? Malheureusement, nous n'avons pas que ces deux épidémies. Nous en avons d'autres. Nous avons la rougeole, des cas d'Ebola, de Marburg et d'autres épidémies encore. En moyenne, nous avons une nouvelle épidémie par jour et ça, ça fait beaucoup pour nous.

Over the past week, sharply contrasting images of Chinese engagement in Africa surfaced online. Anger erupted on social media over the release of yet another violent video that shows Congolese soldiers brutally beating local miners purportedly at the behest of Chinese nationals watching in the background. A controversial hour-long documentary by one of Zambia's leading newspapers also sparked a lot of discussion over the labor and environmental records of Chinese mining companies in the country. The Chinese embassy in Lusaka denounced the program as "biased" and containing "hidden motives." Meanwhile, in China, a 15-second teaser of a new blockbuster movie also dropped this week that looks like it's set in a fictitious North African country, while popular Chinese travel vlogger Zhang Jun released a visually stunning 2.5-hour-long documentary on the Congolese fashion scene known as "La Sape." Eric, Géraud & Cobus discuss these various clips and shows that emerged this week and what they reveal about the evolution of China-Africa media narratives.

Dans le supplément de ce dimanche, en première partie, direction le Mozambique avec une révolution à l'épreuve du temps, le mouvement qui a fait basculer le pays de l'ère coloniale à l'indépendance est de plus en plus contesté. 1975-2025, le temps a passé. Il y a 50 ans, le Frelimo prenait le pouvoir. Après les accords de Lusaka qui ont conclu la guerre coloniale avec les Portugais, cela fera donc un demi siècle mercredi prochain. Le Frelimo est toujours là mais avec des soubresauts... En deuxième partie, nous retrouvons Laurence Théault qui a enquêté en France sur la drogue dans les villes moyennes et le monde rural, et comment on vient en aide à ces usagers de plus en plus nombreux. À partir du 23/6, nous consacrons une série de 4 reportages dédiés à la drogue. Nous irons en Sierra Leone, aux États-Unis, à Marseille et remonterons la route africaine de la cocaïne, cela à l'occasion de la journée internationale contre l'abus et le trafic de drogue, journée spéciale également sur RFI du matin au soir, jeudi 26 juin 2025. Mozambique : la promesse trahie de l'Indépendance Le 25 juin 2025, le Mozambique célèbrera le cinquantième anniversaire de son indépendance. La guerre de libération du pays a duré 10 ans pendant lesquels la guérilla du Frelimo, le Front de libération du Mozambique, a affronté le colon portugais. Après la signature des accords de Lusaka, le 25 septembre 1974, et six mois de transition, le Frelimo prend le pouvoir le 25 juin 1975. Depuis lors, il ne l'a jamais quitté. Fin 2024, le pays a pourtant été secoué par une violente crise post-électorale, réprimée dans le sang. Le Frelimo est de plus en plus contesté. Un Grand Reportage de Gaëlle Laleix qui s'entretient avec Jacques Allix. Drogue à Chateauroux : approcher pour soigner Longtemps cantonnés aux mégapoles et aux banlieues urbaines, les réseaux de trafic de stupéfiants n'en finissent plus d'étendre leur emprise vers les villes moyennes et les campagnes françaises. En province, en région, dans les territoires, en zone rurale. Si les produits stupéfiants sont les mêmes qu'ailleurs : héroïne, cocaïne, drogues de synthèse, cannabis, les structures spécialisées d'aide aux usagers y sont rares. Dans le centre de la France, Châteauroux – 43 000 habitants, à 270 kilomètres de Paris – un centre d'accueil et d'accompagnement y vient en aide aux usagers, sur place, mais également par des tournées en camion pour toucher les consommateurs les plus éloignés en milieu rural. Un Grand reportage de Laurence Théault qui s'entretient avec Jacques Allix.

Último episódio. Jorge Jardim engana todos, até a própria família, e consegue fugir da embaixada onde estava refugiado em Lisboa sem que ninguém se aperceba de nada. Impedido de voltar a Portugal, Jardim não desiste do Programa de Lusaka com vista à independência de Moçambique. O território vai mesmo tornar-se independente, com um acordo assinado em Lusaka, mas o engenheiro Jardim é afastado do processo: “passou a ser alguém que era contagioso”. Desde Espanha e com a ajuda de um conhecido fadista, Jorge Jardim vai tentar vingar-se dos homens que entregaram Moçambique diretamente à FRELIMO e coordenar ataques contra a extrema-esquerda em Portugal. Cada vez mais isolado, a morte de Jardim vai estar envolta num mistério que nunca poderá ser resolvido.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Desde Espanha e com a ajuda de um conhecido fadista, Jorge Jardim vai tentar vingar-se dos homens que entregaram Moçambique diretamente à FRELIMO e coordenar ataques contra a extrema-esquerda em Portugal. Cada vez mais isolado, a morte de Jardim vai estar envolta num mistério que nunca poderá ser resolvido.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In February, a tailings dam at a Chinese-owned mine in Zambia collapsed, releasing 50 million liters of acid waste into the Kafue River—a critical water source for millions. The spill sparked national outrage and raised urgent questions about environmental oversight, China's expanding role in Africa's mining sector, and Zambia's ability to safeguard its natural resources. Freeman Chiwele Mubanga, head of research at the Centre for Environmental Justice in Lusaka is part of a growing civil society movement demanding accountability from both the Chinese mining company and the Zambian government. Freeman speaks with Géraud and CGSP's new Transitional Minerals Editor, Obert Bore, about the fallout from the disaster and what it reveals about the environmental track record of Chinese mining operations across the continent.

John 17.20-23Pastor Mwindula Mbewe of Hillview Baptist Church in Lusaka, Zambia blessed us with a powerful message about God's call for His church to be "one." This unity stems from sharing in Christ's glory, and while we want this unity in the church...we also very much want glory for ourselves. Our sinful desires look for ways to create distinctions and division, the very opposite of the type of unity God calls us to. The glory God gives, through His Son, levels the field and draws us into loving community where we see no differences between us and our brothers and sisters.

A new World Bank report shows Zambia has become one of the most impoverished and unequal nations in the world. The trend is driven by poor economic governance and inefficient mineral exploitation. So, how can Zambia turn this trajectory around? DW's Josey Mahachi speaks to Dickson Mwansa, a specialist in economic justice, and Cathy Short in Lusaka.

C'est le 15 février prochain que les 55 chefs d'État de l'Union africaine éliront le nouveau président de la Commission de l'UA pour un mandat de quatre ans. Trois candidats briguent la succession du Tchadien Moussa Faki Mahamat : le ministre djiboutien des Affaires étrangères Mahmoud Ali Youssouf, l'ex-Premier ministre kenyan Raila Odinga et l'ex-ministre malgache des Affaires étrangères Richard Randriamandrato. RFI offre son antenne, bien sûr, aux trois candidats. Place ce matin au ministre djiboutien des Affaires étrangères. Au micro de Christophe Boisbouvier, il s'exprime d'abord sur la guerre meurtrière en RDC. RFI : Mahmoud Ali Youssouf, bonjour. La guerre fait rage dans l'est du Congo. La ville de Goma est menacée par les assaillants. Le Congo vient de rompre ses relations diplomatiques avec le Rwanda. Que doit faire l'Union africaine face à cette situation ?Mahmoud Ali Youssouf : Bonjour. Je dois rappeler d'abord que c'est une crise chronique qui sévit dans cette région de la RDC depuis plusieurs décennies. Ce conflit, d'abord, est un petit peu le reflet de ce qui se passe dans toute la région et d'une certaine histoire. Mais je crois que l'Union africaine a un rôle à jouer et ce rôle, il est déjà assumé par le président João Lourenço de l'Angola qui, je le rappelle, est le champion pour la paix et la stabilité sur le continent. C'est comme ça, ce sont les chefs d'État qui assument certaines questions. On les appelle les champions, il y en a pour l'éducation, pour la santé et le président João Lourenço est le champion de l'Afrique pour la paix et la stabilité. Il est déjà engagé depuis plus de deux ans pratiquement sur ce dossier. Il y a tout un processus qu'on appelle le processus de Nairobi et celui de Luanda. Il a déjà organisé plusieurs réunions au plus haut niveau entre les deux chefs d'État de la RDC et du Rwanda. Et il faut, je crois, que l'Union africaine continue à soutenir les efforts du président João Lourenço, appeler à la désescalade entre la RDC et le Rwanda, et travailler surtout au désarmement des mouvements armés à l'Est du Congo. Comme vous le savez, il y a le M23, mais il n'y a pas que le M23, il y a d'autres mouvements armés tels que les FDLR, la Codeco et les ADF. Donc, il y a une prolifération de mouvements armés dans cette région. Il est très important que les efforts que mène l'Union africaine à travers donc la médiation du président João Lourenço, ces efforts doivent être maintenant plus intenses et éviter surtout plus d'escalade entre le Rwanda et la RDC. Et je crois que l'Afrique doit systématiquement et impérativement éviter un conflit ouvert entre ces deux pays, je crois que c'est toute la région des Grands Lacs qui risque d'être déstabilisée.Alors vous appelez à la désescalade entre la RDC et le Rwanda. Vous savez que si Kinshasa vient de rompre ses relations diplomatiques avec Kigali, c'est parce que la RDC accuse son voisin rwandais de soutenir les rebelles du M23. L'Organisation des Nations unies et l'Union européenne disent la même chose, mais pas l'Union africaine qui s'est contentée ces derniers jours de réclamer, « la stricte observation du cessez-le-feu convenu entre les parties ». Qu'est-ce que vous pensez de ce refus de l'Union africaine de désigner nommément le Rwanda comme l'un des protagonistes de ce conflit ?Je crois que la complexité de la situation sur le terrain impose à l'Union africaine d'avancer à pas comptés et surtout de faire en sorte que toutes les chances d'une désescalade rapide restent encore entre ses mains. Je crois que c'est l'objet de la médiation du président João Lourenço qui, lui, essaie donc de passer outre ces accusations et de ramener les parties prenantes autour de la table des négociations. Il y a eu déjà plusieurs réunions. Je pense qu'avec cette histoire de rupture des relations diplomatiques, le président João Lourenço va certainement prendre des mesures encore plus importantes afin d'amener les deux parties autour de la table. Il n'y a pas de baguette magique ou de recette magique. Cela fait des années que les Nations unies sont à l'est du Congo, mais ce n'est pas ça qui a réglé le problème. Je crois que l'objectif principal, c'est de neutraliser ces mouvements armés, de les désarmer et pour cela, il faut des efforts collectifs. Il faut que l'Union africaine s'implique davantage et c'est la seule chose qui compte je crois, au-delà des allégations et des accusations qui viennent de la part des uns et des autres.Oui, mais vous savez que cette façon de l'Union africaine de marcher à pas comptés, comme vous dites, face au Rwanda, à la différence de l'ONU ou de l'Union européenne, cela agace énormément le président Félix Tshisekedi ?Je crois que nos chefs d'État, qu'ils soient du Congo ou du Rwanda, ou le président João Lourenço s'efforcent de toute manière de rétablir la paix. L'instabilité et l'absence de paix dans la région n'est profitable pour personne et je pense qu'il est très important de pouvoir se donner les moyens d'agir. Et ce n'est pas en jetant l'anathème sur x ou y qu'on arrivera à résoudre les problèmes.Est-ce que dans les moyens d'agir peuvent être envisagés des sanctions internationales contre le Rwanda ?Je crois que l'Afrique a, à travers son acte constitutif, certaines dispositions qui peuvent aider à la résolution des problèmes et je ne voudrais pas m'avancer sur ce terrain-là. Je ne suis pas encore élu et je ne peux pas avoir une position, je dirais, tranchée et je pense que l'acte constitutif, les textes qui nous gouvernent doivent être un petit peu au centre de ce que nous pouvons apporter comme solution dans les crises africaines.Mahmoud Ali Youssouf, vous êtes le candidat de Djibouti au poste stratégique de président de la Commission de l'Union africaine. Si vous êtes élu le 15 février prochain, quelles seront vos deux priorités ?Ce qui est important, c'est d'abord poursuivre la mise en œuvre des réformes qui ont déjà été enclenchées depuis quelques années. Et parmi ces réformes, il y a un travail à faire au niveau de la Commission. Dans l'organisation interne de la Commission, sa gestion financière, la gestion de son personnel. Il y a tout un travail qui a déjà été entamé, notamment dans le cadre d'un processus qu'on appelle le processus de Lusaka, les promotions internes, éviter les doublons, mettre en place les règles d'or en matière de gestion, tout un travail de coordination à faire entre les différentes commissions. Éviter que ces commissions travaillent en solo et surtout faire en sorte de créer une certaine synergie, une meilleure coordination également entre les organes décisionnels que nous connaissons tous. L'Assemblée des chefs d'État, le Conseil exécutif, le Comité des représentants et la Commission. Un travail de pédagogie est également à mener. Je crois qu'on ne réinvente pas la roue ici, on a beaucoup de difficultés à surmonter. De nombreux défis également, et je commencerai d'abord par mettre de l'ordre dans la Commission. Cela, c'est un premier élément.L'une des autres priorités qui me tient à cœur, c'est justement la paix et la sécurité sur le continent. On vient de parler de la question de la RDC. Il n'y a pas que la RDC aujourd'hui, malheureusement, même si c'est un sujet aujourd'hui brûlant, nous avons la crise au Soudan qui est une guerre ouverte ou des milliers et des milliers de gens sont morts, des millions de déplacés. Nous sommes également dans des situations difficiles à gérer dans le Sahel. La Libye également n'est pas encore sortie de cette période de turbulences. Il y a de nombreux sujets relatifs à la paix, la sécurité et je crois que la nouvelle Commission qui arrivera et son président à sa tête auront beaucoup à faire en matière de paix et de sécurité.La troisième priorité qui me tient à cœur, c'est vraiment d'accélérer le processus d'intégration à travers la Zlecaf. La Zlecaf qui est la zone de libre-échange continental. Vous savez qu'on l'a adoptée, le traité a été ratifié, mais la mise en œuvre de certains mécanismes clés reste encore en souffrance. Notamment la Chambre de compensation qui n'est pas encore mise en place. Nous allons travailler avec le secrétariat de la Zlecaf qui se trouve au Ghana, pour faire en sorte que ces mécanismes soient rendus opérationnels et travailler surtout sur la levée d'un certain nombre de barrières. Il y en a beaucoup, hein, les barrières douanières. Mais il existe surtout des barrières non douanières. Faire en sorte que la circulation des biens et des personnes soit vraiment une réalité et pour cela, il faut mettre en place le passeport africain qui a déjà été lancé en 2017. Mais il y a beaucoup de réticences encore et de résistance pour qu'il soit rendu opérationnel par tous les États membres. Donc, un certain nombre de priorités en matière d'intégration. Surtout faire en sorte que la Zlecaf, qui est la zone de libre-échange continentale, puisse fonctionner proprement. Permettre que ce commerce intra africain qui aujourd'hui n'est que de 18 %, puisse arriver vraiment à des niveaux qui soient acceptables pour tous. En tout cas pour la nouvelle Commission, des niveaux acceptables, ce serait avoir au moins entre 60 % et 70 % de commerce intra africain et le reste avec le monde extérieur.Alors, dans la lettre confidentielle que le président sortant de la Commission, le Tchadien Moussa Faki Mahamat, a écrite en septembre dernier aux chefs d'État africains et que Jeune Afrique vient de révéler, le président sortant regrette les limites de ses pouvoirs et de ceux de la Commission de l'Union africaine. Est-ce que vous partagez son diagnostic ?Je crois que l'acte constitutif de l'Union africaine définit clairement les prérogatives, les rôles et les responsabilités des uns et des autres. Pour ce qui est de la Commission, il faut garder à l'esprit qu'il s'agit d'un organe d'exécution. Les organes décisionnels sont l'Assemblée des chefs d'État, le Conseil exécutif et le Comité des représentants. Le Président de la Commission défend les intérêts du continent à l'international, a également des prérogatives d'orientation, il est vrai, de conseil, il est vrai, également de soutien aux organes décisionnels. Mais il ne faut pas confondre un petit peu les rôles. Je crois que le président Moussa a fait beaucoup de travail durant ses deux mandats. Il a mené à terme cette adoption du traité de la Zlecaf, il ne faut pas l'oublier. Il est vrai également que le niveau d'exécution du premier plan décennal, vous savez que l'Agenda 2063 de l'Union africaine est basé sur cinq plans décennaux. Le taux d'exécution du premier plan décennal est vraiment bas. Il est de l'ordre de 37 %. La plupart des indicateurs sur différents secteurs ne sont pas encore sortis du rouge. Très peu de ces indicateurs sont au vert. Il y a beaucoup, beaucoup de travail à faire, mais je crois qu'il n'est pas facile de mener plusieurs combats de front, surtout lorsque la Commission a des difficultés financières. Sur les 600 millions de dollars de budget 2025 prévus pour l'Union africaine ou la Commission, en tout cas, plus de 300 millions sont fournis par les partenaires pour financer les projets de développement sur le continent. Et vous vous imaginez un petit peu cette dépendance qui certainement limite l'action de la Commission. Il y a également le fait que les États membres, sur un certain nombre de sujets, gardent beaucoup des prérogatives, et ne concèdent rien ou très peu de choses à la Commission. Il y a un travail à faire, surtout de rétablissement de la confiance et un travail à faire de coordination pour que réellement la Commission puisse jouer un rôle non pas central, mais un rôle vraiment de précurseur sur un certain nombre de sujets. Un rôle pionnier. Et en cela la Commission a besoin et des États membres, et des communautés économiques régionales. Je crois qu'un engagement plus fort des États membres pourra nous permettre d'arriver donc à des contrats de performance plus intéressants, dans le 2e plan décennal qui a commencé, je le rappelle, en 2024.Il faut redéfinir les missions confiées au Conseil paix et sécurité de l'Union africaine, dit le président Moussa. Est-ce que vous êtes d'accord avec lui ?Je crois que le Conseil de paix et de sécurité est l'organe permanent qui est chargé de la paix, de la stabilité, de la sécurité sur le continent, à l'instar un peu du Conseil de sécurité des Nations unies. Le Conseil prend des décisions régulièrement sur ces conflits et ces crises. Mais ce qui fait défaut, c'est la mise en œuvre de ces décisions qui sont prises par ce Conseil de paix et de sécurité. Donc il faudra travailler sur le comment améliorer la performance du Conseil de paix et de sécurité dans le cadre de la mise en œuvre des décisions qu'il prend. C'est la demande, surtout pour que le mécanisme qui est mis en place dans l'architecture de paix et de sécurité de l'Union africaine, notamment celui de la prévention, soit renforcé. Et on appelle ça le mécanisme d'alerte rapide.Pour ce qui est de l'opérationnalisation des forces en attente, chaque région de ce continent est supposée avoir une force en attente. Elle doit être rendue opérationnelle. Le comité des sages qui sont là également pour pouvoir résoudre les conflits, voire même les prévenir, là aussi, ce comité a besoin de moyens. Et enfin, ce qui est très important, ce sont les ressources financières. Il y a ce qu'on appelle un fond de la paix dans lequel il y a à peu près 400 millions de dollars. Jusqu'à présent, les mécanismes pour pouvoir mettre ces fonds à la disposition des missions de la paix sur le continent africain, ces mécanismes ne sont pas en place et on n'arrive pas à travailler sur le déboursement de ces montants, ce sera l'un des rôles de la nouvelle Commission de convaincre les États membres, pour que le CPS, le Conseil de paix et de sécurité, puisse être efficace, il faut qu'il se donne les moyens et pour se donner les moyens, tous ces éléments que je viens d'évoquer doivent être vraiment pris en considération.Donc, il y a 400 millions de dollars qui dorment dans les caisses d'Addis-Abeba et qui ne servent à rien...On utilise un petit peu les intérêts qu'ils produisent, mais ces fonds doivent servir aux missions de la paix sur le continent. Et Dieu sait que beaucoup, beaucoup de régions ont besoin justement de ce type de financement pour gérer les situations de conflit ou de crises qui sévissent dans ces régions-là.Face à vous, Mahmoud Ali Youssouf, il y a deux candidats : le Kényan Raila Odinga et le Malgache Richard Randriamandrato, qu'est-ce qui vous distingue de ces deux autres candidats ?Le fait que je sois un diplomate de carrière, d'abord, avec 33 ans d'expérience en matière de diplomatie multilatérale, je suis toujours ministre des Affaires étrangères depuis 20 ans, donc je fréquente très régulièrement les arcanes de l'Union africaine, donc c'est une organisation que je connais très bien. Je suis, je viens d'un petit pays, certes, mais un pays carrefour entre les trois continents, un pays qui est un creuset culturel. Aujourd'hui, le monde arabe et l'Afrique se rejoignent à Djibouti. Djibouti est un pays stable qui fait des efforts colossaux en matière de sécurisation de la navigation maritime dans le détroit de Babel-el-Mandeb.Mon pays a démontré déjà par le passé qu'il était un grand contributeur à la lutte contre la piraterie et le terrorisme. Nous avons des forces qui sont présentes en Somalie sous la bannière de l'Union africaine, en Centrafrique, en RDC, donc un petit pays qui quand même a une contribution louable en matière de paix, de sécurité et je suis un homme qui a cette expérience à mettre au service du continent. Je pense que le temps est venu pour moi de partager cela avec le continent et de me mettre au service de ce continent.Mais tout de même, Mahmoud Ali Youssouf, le fait que le candidat mauricien se soit désisté en faveur du candidat kenyan, Raila Odinga. Le fait que ce dernier revendique, du moins son ministère des Affaires étrangères, le soutien dès le mois de septembre dernier de quelque 19 pays africains, est-ce que tout cela ne vous inquiète pas ?Pas du tout, parce que d'abord le vote est secret. Un, deuxièmement, les mêmes promesses de soutien nous sont données également chaque fois que nous rencontrons les leaders africains. Et donc vous voyez un petit peu que les jeux sont ouverts. Mais je crois que j'ai des avantages comparatifs qui me donnent justement cette avance sur les autres candidats. Et je crois que le dernier débat le 13 décembre à l'Union africaine sur ces grandes questions de l'Union a démontré un petit peu le profil des uns et des autres et je reste confiant.Alors justement, lors de ce débat du 13 décembre, vous avez été le seul des trois à vous exprimer alternativement en français, en anglais, en arabe. Est-ce que c'était une façon de montrer que vous avez un petit avantage linguistique sur vos deux adversaires ?C'est très important. Je me présente comme un candidat qui est capable de créer des passerelles à travers cette capacité de communication avec toutes les cultures. Je m'exprime dans trois langues sur les six langues de travail de l'Union africaine, et je crois que cela me donne certainement un avantage comparatif par rapport aux autres candidats.Et Djibouti est membre de la Ligue arabe, c'est ça ?Pareillement, oui, et nous, Djibouti, sommes également le siège de l'Igad, qui est la Communauté économique régionale que vous connaissez aussi.Mais quand même, l'ancien Premier ministre kényan Raila Odinga, c'est un poids lourd non ?C'est un poids lourd dans son pays et peut-être pas forcément sur le continent.Alors Mahmoud Ali Youssouf, vous avez évoqué les autres crises que traverse le continent africain, à commencer par le Sahel. Quelles sont, à votre avis, les solutions pour mettre fin à la guerre civile dans le nord des trois pays, Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso ?Il ne faut surtout pas baisser les bras quand il s'agit de lutter contre les mouvements terroristes. Et on le fait ici, dans la Corne de l'Afrique, en Somalie. Il est très important de continuer cette action collective. Ils ont créé une force, je crois, de 5 000 hommes pour lutter contre ces mouvements dans le Nord et il faut les soutenir. Quant au retour à l'ordre constitutionnel qui est exigé par l'Union africaine, nous allons accompagner ces pays-là à mettre en place les conditions de la transition. Certains ont déjà adopté des constitutions, je crois que l'Union africaine, même si elle les a suspendus de la participation dans ses réunions, je crois que nous allons soutenir les efforts de la Cédéao et nous allons accompagner si nous sommes élus à la tête de la Commission, accompagner ces États-là à revenir à l'ordre constitutionnel à travers des élections qui seront organisées à l'issue de la période de transition. Voilà un peu les leviers qui sont disponibles à nos yeux pour l'instant.Et la présence de miliciens russes du groupe Wagner, qu'en pensez-vous ?Je crois que toute ingérence dans les affaires des États africains n'est pas la bienvenue. Et de toute manière s'il y a des forces étrangères qui créent le chaos ou je dirais l'instabilité, ce sont des choses que nous n'apprécions pas. Mais les États sont encore des États souverains quand il s'agit de créer des accords de partenariat, l'Union africaine n'a rien à dire sur ce sujet-là. Ce sont des questions souveraines, chaque pays a le droit d'avoir un partenariat, des accords de stratégie militaire avec d'autres pays, mais tout ce qui déstabilise le continent est bien entendu rejeté par l'Union africaine et ça sera le cas si nous sommes élus à la tête de la Commission.Vous avez parlé de la Libye, est ce que vous craignez une partition du pays entre l'Est et l'Ouest ?Pour l'instant, la Libye est un pays qui est divisé malheureusement en zone d'influence de pouvoir et il faudrait que nous poursuivions les efforts. Récemment, le Secrétaire général des Nations unies a nommé un envoyé spécial. Ce poste était vacant pendant, je dirais après la démission de monsieur Abdoulaye Bathily, pendant longtemps. L'Union africaine fait ses propres efforts, il y a un comité des chefs d'État dirigé par le président Sassou Nguesso pour essayer d'aider la Libye, mais les efforts doivent se poursuivre et ce qu'il faut surtout éviter, c'est justement la dislocation du pays et surtout ce type de sécession des régions n'est pas la bienvenue sur le continent.L'une des guerres civiles les plus meurtrières actuellement sur le continent, c'est celle du Soudan. On n'en est bientôt à deux ans de conflit, comment trouver une solution dans cette guerre qui n'en finit pas ?Là aussi, diplomatiquement, on essaie de le faire. Il y a une plateforme Union africaine- Igad pour essayer de remettre le processus politique sur les rails, parce que la solution au Soudan n'est pas militaire. Il faut que les parties prenantes s'asseyent autour de la table des négociations et qu'on puisse revenir à un processus politique. C'est ce que nous essayons de pousser. D'abord, qu'on parvienne à un cessez-le-feu. Il y a déjà des plans qui ont été avancés et par l'Igad et par l'Union africaine, et la priorité dans le cadre de ces plans, c'est le cessez le feu. Les Nations unies ont aussi à ouvrir des corridors humanitaires, ce n'est pas suffisant à Adré et au Nord aussi, mais il faut continuer.Je crois que nous avons à Djibouti organisé plusieurs retraites sous l'égide des Nations unies sur le Soudan. La dernière a été organisée en Mauritanie. Il y a un travail diplomatique qui est fait, ce n'est pas suffisant, mais je pense qu'on doit continuer à le faire. Et je rappelle aussi que le Soudan reste sous sanctions de l'Union africaine parce que, dès qu'il y a un changement anticonstitutionnel de gouvernement, la sanction tombe. Ce sont les dispositions de l'acte constitutif. Mais le rôle de l'Union africaine est de poursuivre ses efforts, même si ces pays sont sous sanctions, nous n'arrêterons pas d'essayer donc de trouver une solution pacifique à toutes les crises qui se déclenchent dans les États membres.Une dernière question, votre pays Djibouti est frontalier de la Somalie et de sa province séparatiste du Somaliland, qui est soutenue par l'Éthiopie, autre voisin de votre pays. Quelle est votre position dans ce conflit ?Elle a été toujours cohérente depuis, je dirais plus de 30 ans. Djibouti a toujours soutenu l'unité de la Somalie. Cette unité, je crois, elle est remise en question, peut-être même à l'interne maintenant. Certaines régions démontrent un petit peu une certaine dissidence, mais nous sommes aux côtés du président Hassan Sheikh Mohamoud, nous le soutenons. Le gouvernement central doit mener des efforts politiques avec toutes les régions pour justement éviter cette dislocation du pays. Et c'est un peu ce que je disais par rapport à la Libye, la dislocation d'un pays, l'implosion créé plus de problèmes qu'elle n'en résout, aussi bien pour les pays en question que pour les pays voisins. Donc la priorité pour Djibouti a toujours été de soutenir l'unité de la Somalie et de son intégrité territoriale.Mais est-ce que le soutien de l'Éthiopie aux séparatistes du Somaliland ne change pas la donne ?Ça, c'est une question qu'il faudra poser aux Éthiopiens.En tout cas, vous n'êtes pas d'accord avec leur politique sur ce sujet ?C'est une question qui concerne les Éthiopiens, et pas les Djiboutiens. Voilà ce que je peux dire.Monsieur le ministre Mahmoud Ali Youssouf, je vous remercie.C'est moi qui vous remercie et bonne journée.À lire aussiUnion africaine: quels sont les enjeux du grand débat des candidats à la présidence de la Commission?
Dr. Conrad Mbewe,founding chancellor of African Christian University &Pastor of Kabwata Baptist Church of Lusaka, Zambia, & Dr. Joe Jacowitz,founder of FirstLove Ministries & Pastor of Christ BibleChurch of Pleasanton, CA, who will address: “The MINISTER AS SHEPHERD”
In Zambia, Catholic bishops are raising the alarm about increased arrests and prolonged detentions of opposition leaders. In a letter signed by all 11 bishops, they lamented what they see as significant restrictions on democratic freedom. They say this is illustrated by charges being brought against at least six opposition leaders, as well as journalists and civil society activists, for political activities. Kathy Short reports from Lusaka
In this illuminating episode of Didaché, Justin Peters interviews renowned African pastor Conrad Mbewe about the critical Publishing for Africa initiative.

Swallowing a World: Globalization and the Maximalist Novel (U Nebraska Press, 2024) offers a new theorization of the maximalist novel. Though it's typically cast as a (white, male) genre of U.S. fiction, maximalism, Benjamin Bergholtz argues, is an aesthetic response to globalization and a global phenomenon in its own right. Bergholtz considers a selection of massive and meandering novels that crisscross from London and Lusaka to Kingston, Kabul, and Kashmir and that represent, formally reproduce, and ultimately invite reflection on the effects of globalization. Each chapter takes up a maximalist novel that simultaneously maps and formally mimics a cornerstone of globalization, such as the postcolonial culture industry (Salman Rushdie's Midnight's Children), the rebirth of fundamentalism (Zadie Smith's White Teeth), the transnational commodification of violence (Marlon James's A Brief History of Seven Killings), the obstruction of knowledge by narrative (Zia Haider Rahman's In the Light of What We Know), and globalization's gendered, asymmetrical growth (Namwali Serpell's The Old Drift). By reframing analysis of maximalism around globalization, Swallowing a World not only reimagines one of the most perplexing genres of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries but also sheds light on some of the most perplexing political problems of our precarious present.

It's Monday, June 10th, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus $130,000 for funeral expenses for martyred missionary couple in Haiti More than $130,000 has been raised online for the funeral and related expenses of husband and wife missionaries who were murdered in Haiti, reports MyChristianDaily.com. Davy and Natalie Lloyd, who served with Missions in Haiti, were killed in a gang attack, as violence has engulfed the nation. One GoFundMe campaign has raised close to $57,000, while a second fundraising effort has raised over $76,000. However, while the generosity of Christians has been exemplary, MissouriNet reports that online scammers are taking advantage of people wanting to help the families. Missouri State Rep. Ben Baker, who is the father of Natalie, explained that con artists have been creating fake fundraising pages to try and steal donations meant to help bring his daughter's body and her husband's body back to the U.S. Israeli Defense Forces rescue four hostages from Gaza Four Israeli hostages were rescued 245 days into their captivity, reports The Jerusalem Post. Working with other law enforcement officials, the Israeli Defense Forces, rescued them from two separate nearby locations in central Gaza in a high-risk joint operation. They include Noa Argamani, age 25, Almog Meir, age 21, Andrey Kozlov, age 27, and Shlomi Ziv, age 40, all of whom were kidnapped by Hamas and brought to the Gaza Strip from the 'Nova' party. This is the third such successful operation to rescue hostages since the war started on October 7th. An uncertain number of Palestinian terrorists and civilians were killed during the operation. The Israeli Defense Forces implied that dozens of terrorists were killed, but left open the possibility that potentially some dozens of Palestinian civilians might have also been killed. Interestingly, the U.S. provided intelligence on the hostages before Israel's successful rescue operation. Biden's DOJ indicts doctor who exposed transgender child mutilation at TX hospital Here in America, Biden's so-called “Department of Justice” is at it again. This time it indicted a small-town surgeon who revealed that ghastly transgender surgeries were being secretly committed on minors at Texas Children's Hospital after the hospital had purportedly discontinued its transgender program, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Dr. Eithan Haim identified himself earlier this year as the anonymous whistleblower who provided evidence of the ongoing so-called “sex-change procedures” for children as young as 11 to Manhattan Institute journalist Christopher Rufo last year. Dr. Haim said that U.S. marshals showed up at his home earlier this week, summoning him to court to face four felony counts of alleged HIPAA violations. Haim, a 33-year-old general surgeon, has always maintained that no medical privacy laws were broken when he provided evidence of Texas Children's Hospital's continued transgender program to Rufo. He told the Daily Wire, “It's my responsibility as a doctor, as a physician, to expose this to the public. If I don't, then this abuse can continue. I knew that future generations, like my children, would never be able to forgive me if they knew I had the chance to do something and I decided to stay silent. It requires average, everyday doctors to stand up and speak out against things like this.” Luke 12:2-3 says, "God has determined that the secrets will be uncovered, the truth will come forth, and God's thought about every behavior and action will be vindicated." Voddie Baucham: Pervasive sexual sin sign of God's judgment Pastor Voddie Baucham warned that the pervasive sexual sins of the prevailing culture are signs of divine judgment, but that the Gospel still offers hope and that American Christians should plead with God for revival while preparing for persecution. Baucham, who is on leave in the U.S. from his position as Dean of Theology at African Christian University in Lusaka, Zambia, preached from Romans 1 during an event last Saturday at Lamar Baptist Church outside Dallas. He cited some of the points he made in his new book entitled It's Not Like Being Black: How Sexual Activists Hijacked the Civil Rights Movement. Baucham noted the irony that he was making his remarks on the first day of pride month, which he referred to as "pride goes before destruction month." He noted that the Apostle Paul ultimately spends much of the first chapter of Romans explaining how the wrath of God manifests in the world by giving mankind over to sexual depravity and "a debased mind.” Romans 1:18-19, 26 says, “The wrath of God is being revealed from Heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. … Therefore, God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another.” Baucham said, "We are living in a time, in an era when there are people who are desperately wicked, and in desperate need of repentance and faith, in desperate need of the Gospel.” In describing the evil culture in Romans 1, he said that the destruction starts with a denial of God and His authority, as well as a desire to suppress the truth, which he noted has long been readily apparent in modern culture. Baucham said that the consequence of such a worldview, first leads to general sexual immorality, which he explained first manifested in the Sexual Revolution and in the separation of sex from marital commitment and family. He also said contraceptives, abortion and the crisis of fatherlessness are connected to such an attitude. Baucham then explained that "dishonorable passions" are the next stage of divine judgment against a wicked culture, and suggested that the scale at which modern society is subject to them is historically unprecedented. … “Whenever we're pursuing one of God's good gifts outside of the boundaries wherein God gives that gift, it never brings us the satisfaction that we crave. And on top of that, it always brings us guilt and shame." Correction on Dwight D. Eisenhower's title In Friday's newscast, I incorrectly claimed that Dwight D. Eisenhower was a Major General on D-Day. Actually, his title on June 6, 1944 was Supreme Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force. My apologies. 24 Worldview listeners gave $7,268 And finally, toward our goal of raising $28,550 by this weekend to help keep the newscast on the air, 24 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate. That's the most response we have had since Monday, June 7th. Our thanks to Daniel in Mexico City, Mexico who gave $5, Nathan in Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia who gave $25, Gjon and Lynne in Bridgewater, Massachusetts who gave $33, as well as Jeremy in Grants Pass, Oregon, Jeffrey in Forest Hill, Maryland, and Patricia in Portland, Oregon – each of whom gave $50. We're grateful to Jennifer in Coos Bay, Oregon, Timothy in Pine Plains, New York, and Logan, Eli and Quin in Mhlambanyatsi, Eswatini or Swaziland, Africa -- each of whom gave $100 We appreciate Bianca in Mhlambanyatsi, Eswatini pledged $10 per month for 12 months for a gift of $120, Tristan in Summerdale, Alabama who gave $140, Robin in Simsbury, Connecticut $150, Peter in Seaside, California and Julie in Marion, Indiana – both of whom gave $200, as well as an anonymous donor in Independence, Missouri who gave $280. We're grateful to God for Jared in Caldwell, Idaho who pledged $25 per month for 12 months for a gift of $300, Erica in Littleton, Colorado who gave $365, as well as Merlin in Middlebury, Indiana and James in Kennewick, Washington – both of whom gave $500. And we were moved by the sacrifice of Sarah in Madera, California who gave $600, William in Lees Summit, Missouri and Steven in Plainview, Texas – both of whom pledged $50 per month for 12 months for a gift of $600 each, Carl in San Antonio, Texas who gave $1,000, and Robert in Boerne, Texas who pledged $100 per month for 12 months for a gift of $1,200. Those 24 Worldview donors gave $7,268. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please. (sound effect of drum roll) $14,583 (audience cheering) So, we fell short of our goal by $13,967. By this Friday, June 14th, our midway point in our month-long fundraiser, we need to raise an additional $42,517 toward our final goal of $114,200 to fund the 6-person team that makes this newscast come to life. We're looking for 10 Worldview listeners to pledge $100 per month for 12 months for a gift of $1,200, 35 folks to pledge $50 per month for 12 months for a gift of $600, and 70 people to pledge $25 per month for 12 months for a gift of $300. It would be exciting to see 30 new donors step up to the plate today.

In this episode, we welcome the great Voddie Baucham back to the show. He is a Reformed pastor, author, church planter, and sought-after speaker that currently serves as the Dean of Theology at African Christian University in Lusaka, Zambia. He has written many incredibly important books, such as Fault Lines: The Social Justice Movement, Evangelicalism's Looming Catastrophe and Family Shepherds: Calling and Equipping Men to Lead Their Homes, and his latest book called It's Not Like Being Black: How Sexual Activists Hijacked the Civil Rights Movement. In this interview, we discuss the continued success of Fault Lines, where he got the idea for the new book, how “sexual minorities” have hijacked the civil rights movements, the slow and methodical process that allowed for the societal upheaval we are currently experiencing, some of the most influential men behind this cultural change, how successful the process of the normalization of the LGBTQ+ lifestyle has been, how we can respond to people that ask us “why do you care what people do in the privacy of their own homes?”, what we stand to lose if we refuse to defend the definition and sanctity of marriage, how pastors' sermons on homosexuality die the death of a thousand qualifications, how we should prepare for the societal unrest that will surely come after the 2024 presidential election, and much more. Let's get into it… Episode notes and links HERE. Donate to support our mission of equipping men to push back darkness. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
