It's Tuesday, June 16th, A.D. 2026. 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 Kevin Swanson and Timothy Reed Two pastors killed in Manipur State, India Two pastors -- Pastor Kenpibou and the Rev. Manu Thiumai -- and at least two others were found dead in India's Manipur State last week, reports The Christian Post. The victims of ethnic and religious violence were found with their hands tied and their bodies mutilated in this northeastern state.  The Economic Times quotes a Manipur home minister who described the killings as “a heinous crime against humanity.”  74% of Israelis support sexual perversion today The Jerusalem Post reports that more than 100,000 persons participated in this year's so-called “gay pride” parade in Tel Aviv, Israel. A new study conducted by the Israel Institute for Gender and LGBT Studies found that 74% of Israel supports “full and legally enforced equal rights for the LGBT community.”  That's up from 61% just three years ago. Additionally, 89% of secular Israelis support equal rights for homosexuals and transgenders compared to 75% of traditional Israelis, 53% of religious Israelis, and 25% of ultra-Orthodox Israelis. Judges 3:12 says, “Once again, Israel did what was evil in the sight of the Lord.” Brazil's attendance at sexually perverted “pride” event cut by 50% In related news, one of the world's largest sexual perverted so-called “pride” events has been held in São Paulo, Brazil. However, a university drone count found that the peak attendance fell off from 73,600 in 2024, to 36,800 in 2026. Organizers say the total attendees topped one million, but that's down from three to five million in recent years. Isaiah 2:10-11 promises this: “Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, for fear of the Lord, and for the glory of His majesty. The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day.” Trump scored elusive peace deal with Iran The United States and Iran have reached a deal aimed at ending the war that will reopen the Strait of Hormuz and lift the American naval blockade, reports NBC News. A signing ceremony is set for Friday in Switzerland. Global markets soared after the tentative deal was announced, while oil prices fell more than $4 a barrel on the news that shipping may soon be restored through the key trade route, according to Just The News. On Truth Social, Trump wrote, "Ships of the World, start your engines. Let the oil flow!” However, the memorandum of understanding leaves some key issues unresolved, setting up potential future tensions. The deal gives the two sides 60 days to resolve what to do about Iran's stockpile of highly enriched uranium and its nuclear program. Supreme Court sides with pro-abortion public school This just in.  The U.S. Supreme Court came down on the side of the pro-abortion lobby, to disallow a pro-life club from posting signs in a public school which would have denounced the abortion giant Planned Parenthood. Only Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas dissented. Justice Alito pointed out that the “Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment constrains censorship.” Many U.S. Christian denominations have lost members American denominations have lost church attendance since 2007. Pew Research breaks it down by denomination. Only the Reformed Churches and non-denominational groups have recovered or gained members since 2007. By percentage,  Holiness churches have lost the most members, followed by Methodists, Adventists, Restorationists, and Baptists. In raw numbers, Baptists have lost 11 million members, Methodists have lost seven million members, Lutherans have lost four million members, and Holiness groups have lost 1.6 million members since 2007. Meanwhile, the non-denominational churches gained 10.5 million members, and reformed churches gained about 150,000 over this 14-year period. Overall, the decline of faith in America has leveled off since 2019, largely due to an increased interest in church attendance on the part of Gen Z men between the ages of 14 and 29. Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act was not reauthorized On June 11th, Congress did not reauthorize  the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, or FISA. The vote was 198-218. FISA 702 has been used to spy on American citizens, and it actively circumvents the Fourth Amendment which prohibits the government from spying on Americans without a warrant. Almost all Democrats voted against reauthorization of FISA 702, but it took 19 Republicans to officially defeat the spying measure. Establishment Republicans signaled their disappointment that the measure was defeated, but Republican Congressman Tim Burchett of Tennessee explained, “The Fourth Amendment is there for a reason.” Trump saved 146,000 migrant children trafficked under Biden The Trump administration has rescued 146,000 migrant children who were trafficked into the country during the Biden administration. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin explained the situation and the conditions under President Biden. Listen. MULLIN: “We're going to right the wrongs that the Biden administration turned a blind eye to. It's because of President Trump's leadership. It's horrific what's happening right in our own country because of four years of a blind eye that allowed unvetted sponsors to come pick up 450,000 kids on our borders, knowing their reports. While the Biden administration was in office, their own reports reporting that over a third of the females, regardless of age, were sexually assaulted before they made it to the border.” Cleveland Clinic to invest $2 million to help de-transitioners In another domestic victory, the Trump administration reached a massive deal with the Cleveland Clinic Foundation which agreed to stop transitioning minors. The clinic also agreed to commit $2 million to help de-transitioners, following in the footsteps of Texas Children's Hospital, which set up a $10 million fund for that purpose.  Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward stated, “The Department of Justice is steadfastly committed to protecting America's children. Just as the resolution with Texas Children's, today's resolution with Cleveland Clinic furthers that commitment and puts these providers on notice that this Department will vigorously enforce federal law where children are put at risk.” In Mark 9:42, Jesus said, “But whoever causes one of these little ones, who believe in Me, to stumble, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea.” Artificial Intelligence can now clone your voice in a scam Please be aware!  Artificial Intelligence can now clone your voice with only three seconds of audio taken off of your voicemail greeting.  Artificial Intelligence scams increased twelve-fold in 2025.  Recent surveys have found one in four adults have encountered an Artificial Intelligence voice scam.  New York Knicks are world champions after a 53-year drought And finally, on June 13th, the New York Knicks became basketball world champions once again. ANNOUNCER: “It's over.  Knick fans: This is not a dream. Your long, long wait has ended. Go ahead and cry. After 53 years, the Knicks are finally NBA champions once again.” During Game 5 of the NBA Finals in the Alamo City, the New York Knicks defeated the San Antonio Spurs by a score of 94-90, capping off a stunning playoff run.  Knicks star Jalen Brunson scored 45 points in the victory, which earned him the nomination of Finals Most Valuable Player. But even more special for Jalen was the fact that his Dad, Rick Brunson, was his coach.  Amazingly, Rick, himself a former NBA player, made the finals for the New York Knicks back in 1999, also playing against the San Antonio Spurs in that series.  Rick and Jalen continue to maintain a close relationship, which Jalen elaborated on in a Good Morning America interview on ABC. BRUNSON: “Our relationship is unique. People may think just because he pushes me a certain way that we don't say things to each other, but I wouldn't trade anything for the world. We have the best relationship, even when it looks like we're fighting. That's just a coach and player trying to get over, to get to the Promised Land.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, June 16th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

It's Tuesday, May 19th, A.D. 2026. 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 Kevin Swanson and Timothy Reed Another British preacher arrested in London Another British pastor has been arrested for preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ on the streets of London.   Pastor Steve Maile was singing, preaching the Good News, and calling on Muslims to be saved when he was arrested by the police.  Pastor Steve told Fox News Digital, "It's called inciting religious hatred — which is false. … The cross of Christ is a message of hope, love, mercy, and reconciliation to a fallen world. ... How could that be hate?" Not much has changed since the Prophet Amos spoke these words: “They hate the one who rebukes in the gate, and they abhor the one who speaks uprightly.” (Amos 5:10) Three Christian pastors killed in Manipur, India The Manipur, Indian Baptist Convention is condemning the death of friend and pastor Reverend Dr. Vumthang Sitlhou, who was shot and killed along with Pastors Lhouvum and Paogoulen in an ambush which took place on May 13th. Manipur State is located in Northeast India in a mostly hilly area, where the percentage of Christians has risen from 19% in 1960 to 41% in 2011, equaling the percentage of Hindus which dropped from 62% to 41%. The Baptist group noted “This senseless violence is a grave attack on humanity, peace, and religious harmony. The tragic loss of such devoted leaders who dedicated their lives to serving God, the Church, and society, is not only a loss to the Christian community, but also to the people of Manipur as a whole.”   The Worldview received pictures of the scene from Christians who witnessed the killings. The Baptist Convention is pleading with the government of India to “seriously look into the matter to conduct an immediate and impartial investigation, and ensure that the perpetrators are identified and brought to justice without delay.” Send a 2-sentence letter to Indian Ambassador Vinay Kwatra, asking that he hold the killers accountable. Send it to: Embassy of India, 2107 Massachusetts Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20008. Or you can email him: psamb.washington@mea.gov.in Ebola virus outbreak claims 80 lives in Uganda Another Ebola virus outbreak has surfaced in Congo, Africa. So far, 80 people died this time. At least two cases of Ebola have been detected in Kampala, Uganda as well, according to the World Health Organization. That's the worst outbreak since 2020. Those who contract the Ebola virus have a 50% chance of dying. Right-wing Vox Party makes gains in Spain The far-right, nationalist Vox Party gained some ground in Spain's election over the weekend.  The conservative party will be forced to build a ruling coalition with the Nationalists to establish a new government for that European nation. At last count, 15 European nations have experienced a surge in anti-immigrant nationalism. However, that's not necessarily a return to Christian values or pro-life values. Death tolls in the U.S.-Iran War and Russ-Ukrainian War Here's an updated list of death tolls for recent wars. * 3,000 deaths in Lebanon as reported by the BBC. * 1,700 Iranian citizens are reported to have been killed in the recent US-Israeli war on Iran. * Thirteen U.S. military personnel also gave up their lives in this war.   * While estimates vary for the Russian-Ukrainian War, the best estimates we can find are 16,000 Ukrainian civilians and about 400 Russian civilians have been killed in that war. Worse yet, anywhere from hundreds of thousands to 3,000,000 Russian and Ukrainian soldiers have given up their lives in this conflict.  Jeremiah 25:32-33 speaks of God giving nations over to the devastation of war: “Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Behold, disaster shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the farthest parts of the Earth. And, at that day, the slain of the Lord shall be from one end of the Earth even to the other end of the Earth.” Two teens killed three at Islamic Center in San Diego On May 18th, two teenagers killed three adults at the Islamic Center of San Diego including two staff members and a security guard, reports Fox News. San Diego Police Chief Scott Wahl said that the two suspects involved in the shooting, ages 17 and 19, are both dead from self-inflicted gunshot wounds. He also added these additional details. WAHL: “At about 11:43am, we received a call of an active shooter at the Islamic Center. Within four minutes, officers arrived on scene and observed immediately three deceased, what appeared to be deceased, victims out in front. They immediately began to deploy with an active shooter response into the mosque and adjacent school.” Wahl said the security guard “played a pivotal role” in preventing the attack from becoming even worse. GOP Senator Bill Cassidy lost primary in Louisiana Louisiana Republican Senator Bill Cassidy was ousted in Saturday's primary election. The longtime senator came in with a dismal 25% support.  He had served as a Congressman for six years and a Senator for 11 years. Cassidy was known for both his reluctance to support the Trump agenda and challenging Robert F. Kennedy Jr. during his confirmation to be Health and Human Services Secretary.   Plus, Cassidy was one of seven GOP senators to vote to convict President Trump in his second impeachment trial on February 13, 2021 after he had already finished his first term. The vote was 57-43. Louisiana Republicans will now pick between Congresswoman Julia Letlow, whom Trump endorsed, and State Treasurer John Fleming in the upcoming run-off since neither one secure 50-plus percent of the vote. New acting FDA Commissioner worked as Planned Parenthood attorney The new Acting Commissioner for the Food and Drug Administration, Kyle Diamantas, previously worked as an attorney for Planned Parenthood. Now he says he regrets taking on the role. Diamantas told Live Action that he was assigned a case for Planned Parenthood, and, despite his opposition to abortion, he took the case. However, he later regretted his decision and asked to be recused. Diamantas also confirmed that a review of the Abortion Kill Pill is a top priority for the department. Deficits and cost of living in America are up And finally, the U.S. Office of Budget and Management is estimating a national deficit of $2 trillion for this fiscal year. That's up 15% from Fiscal Year 2025 — the last year for which the Biden administration was responsible.   The Core Producer Price Index for this country has topped 5.2% —on a steady increase since last summer. The Producer Price Index stood at 2% in January of 2024, before the 2024 elections.  Food prices are up 32% since 2020. That's an annualized whopping 4.7% per year — a pinch on the average middle class family.

West Bengal Election 2026 is a poll under siege. Election Commission rules are being questioned for being absurd and working against the Trinamool Congress.  The EC introduced certain rules meant only for Bengal and not Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Assam and Puducherry that went to polls with it. These rules have led to lakhs of people being deprived of their right to vote. And now the state is being put under unprecedented security deployment, of a greater scale than even the civil strife in Manipur.There are six aspects to what can be called an election under siege in West Bengal.

In this episode of Crossing Thresholds, Maurice Bloem speaks with Binalakshmi Nepram, an Indigenous scholar, poet, and peacebuilder from Manipur in Northeast India. Bina's life and work sit at the intersection of climate disruption, armed conflict, and Indigenous spirituality — a place where survival is not abstract, but lived every day.   Bina reflects on growing up in a deeply land-connected Indigenous community under martial law, where rituals, food, and shared spiritual practices have long sustained resilience. She speaks powerfully about Indigenous knowledge as living science, about women who patrol the streets at night to protect their communities, and about the meaning of staying rooted to land even amid violence and climate stress. Throughout the conversation, Bina reminds us that resilience does not begin with institutions — it begins with people, memory, and care.   This episode weaves lived experience with insights from the Climate, Faith & Migration research, highlighting how Indigenous and faith-based knowledge systems are often the first to respond to crisis, yet remain overlooked by external actors. It is a conversation about peace, dignity, and the right to survive as a people — and an invitation to listen more closely to those who have been holding the line for generations.   Listener Engagement: Learn more about Bina via her LinkedIn, and her organization's website.

In today's episode we turn our attention to Manipur; a state in India's Northeast that has been experiencing conflict on ethnic lines. In 2023, the violence between the valley-dwelling Meitei community and hill-based Kuki-Zo tribes erupted in full force: homes burned, villages razed, thousands displaced, and lives forever changed. As per data from the National Crime Record Bureau, crimes in many categories, such as arson and murder surged. Arson cases alone soared from just 27 in 2022 to 6,203 in 2023, while rioting cases rose from 84 to 5,421.However, the number of registered crimes against women showed a 30% drop. The number of rape cases fell from 42 in 2022 to 27 in 2023. Why did crimes against women decline during a period of widespread violence, and what might this reveal about reporting, safety, and justice in conflict-torn Manipur? Tune in! Guest: Siam Thangsing, an independent researcher who has published work on Gender and Health during the conflict; and Greeshma Kuthar, a reporter and lawyer who has been in Manipur's conflict zones.

What's behind fresh tensions in Manipur?

This is the Catch Up on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I am Ichha SharmaToday is 28th of May and here are today's headlines.The Congress has renewed its call for President's Rule in Manipur after fresh violence in Jiribam and the resignation of BJP MLA Ashab Uddin. Party spokesperson Supriya Shrinate alleged that the N. Biren Singh-led government had failed to maintain law and order, calling the administration “invisible.” The opposition said the constitutional machinery had collapsed, with thousands still displaced since the 2023 ethnic clashes. The BJP, meanwhile, has defended its state government's handling of the situation.And from Manipur, we turn to Assam, where a legal battle is unfolding over alleged police encounters. The Supreme Court has stayed proceedings initiated by the Assam Human Rights Commission into 183 alleged fake police encounters that occurred between May 2021 and June 2022. A petition filed by a senior advocate claimed the panel had no jurisdiction, as many of the cases were already pending before courts. The Commission had asked Assam's top police and home officials to respond to its notice. The apex court has now called for affidavits from all parties within three weeks.Next, in Tamil Nadu, a remark by actor Kamal Haasan has sparked a linguistic and political row. Speaking at a Tamil Sangam event, Kamal Haasan claimed Tamil predates Kannada, citing a 2,500-year-old Tamil inscription. Karnataka BJP leaders sharply objected, accusing him of stoking regional discord. CT Ravi and Basanagouda Patil Yatnal called the comment disrespectful. Haasan later clarified that he was referencing historical records, not undermining any language.Two men in Kerala's Palakkad district have been arrested for assaulting a 24-year-old tribal man, alleging he had stolen a hen. A video of the attack, which took place on May 18 in Malampuzha, surfaced online, prompting public outcry. The accused were identified and booked under various sections, including those of the SC/ST Atrocities Act. Police confirmed the victim belongs to the Irula tribal community.Two Indian-origin men in the US have been sentenced to 33 and 63 months in prison for their role in a human smuggling operation. The case involved a family of four from Gujarat who died from exposure near the US-Canada border in 2022. The smugglers charged up to $100,000 for illegal crossings and had arranged the family's final, fatal attempt near Manitoba.This was the Catch Up on 3 Things by The Indian Express

Manipur's demand for inclusion in the Fifth or Sixth schedule is valid. The state also needs financial and technical support for high-value agriculture, market-friendly crops, and micro-irrigation.  

This episode was originally published on November 11, 2022. We thought it was worth a reissue for our newer listeners. Christianity is a truly global religion, and every strand of Christianity has its own theological emphases. Western Christians tend to focus on individual salvation and the question of what happens when we die. But as we amplify other Christian voices, we find that the riches of the gospel might stretch far beyond our original conceptions. In this episode, Dru interviews Dr. Jangkholam Haokip, an Indian theologian, author, and former professor. Growing up in Churachandpur, Manipur, in Northeast India, Jangkholam converted to Christianity as a child. Drawing on his experiences with indigenous Indian culture and religion, he had the opportunity to develop a unique perspective on Christian theology, including Scripture's portrayal of sin's effects on nature, the value of yet-unheard perspectives, and the way that the gospels can affect the lives of whole communities. After his long career as a professor at Union Biblical Seminary in India, Jangkholam has founded the Bethesda-Khankho Foundation, which aims to transform indigenous Indian communities through education and poverty outreach. He also contributed to the recent book Voices from the Margins: Wisdom of Primal Peoples in the Era of World Christianity.

20 years ago, ethnic chauvinists burned down a library in Imphal, in an effort to erase the state's centuries-old multicultural heritage. The government has encouraged toxic identity politics to harden in the years since. Today, it is still failing to encourage genuine engagement between Manipur's ethnic communities----more----Read full article here: https://theprint.in/opinion/security-code/running-buses-wont-bring-peace-to-manipur-govt-must-seek-to-engage-not-erase/2561496/

This is the Catchup on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain. Today is the 11th of March and here are the headlines. Prime Minister Narendra Modi received a warm welcome from the Indian diaspora upon his arrival in Mauritius on Tuesday. Women performed the traditional Bihari cultural dance, Geet Gawai, to honor him. He was greeted by Mauritian PM Navinchandra Ramgoolam, who presented him with a garland at Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport. Modi is in Mauritius for a two-day visit as the chief guest at the National Day celebrations. His trip includes inaugurating 20 India-funded projects, ranging from capacity building to community-linked infrastructure. Both the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha resumed today at 11 am, with discussions centered around new bills and the Manipur budget. The Lok Sabha is set to discuss President's Rule in Manipur and hear the presentation of the Manipur budget by Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. A new bill on immigration services was also introduced, sparking opposition debate. Congress leader Manish Tewari called the Immigration and Foreigners Bill, 2025, unconstitutional, while the government defended its legislative competence to introduce the bill under the Union list.Delhi remains the world's most polluted capital for the sixth consecutive year, with an average PM 2.5 concentration of 91.8 μg/m3, according to the 2024 World Air Quality Report. The report reveals that 13 of the 20 most polluted cities globally are in India, including Byrnihat and Faridabad. India ranks as the fifth most polluted country, with a concerning average Air Quality Index (AQI) of 50.6 μg/m3. This is ten times higher than the World Health Organization's annual PM2.5 guideline, highlighting India's ongoing air quality crisis.Gangster Aman Sahu was killed in an encounter on Tuesday morning in Jharkhand's Palamu district. Authorities said Sahu's gang attempted to free him while he was being transported from Raipur jail to Ranchi. Sahu was involved in over 100 criminal cases, including murder and extortion. Police also suspected ties to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. His death follows several convictions in criminal cases. The encounter occurred after an attempt to break him free from police custody during his transfer. Shares on Wall Street plunged on Monday, marking one of the worst trading days since 2022, fueled by concerns about President Donald Trump's trade policies. Investors are worried that a trade war could push the US economy into a recession, with Trump expressing ambivalence about the prospect. Despite earlier responses to market movements, Trump now hints at economic pain in the short term. The tech-heavy NASDAQ dropped over 4%, with Tesla suffering the most, falling more than 10%, marking a sharp decline from its December peak.This was the Catch Up on 3 Things by the Indian Express.

This is the Catchup on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain. Today is the 10th of March and here are the headlines.Proceedings in Lok Sabha resumed after being adjourned due to chaos over the PM SHRI scheme. Speaker Om Birla urged MPs to be seated and respect Parliament or face action. Meanwhile, the opposition staged a walk-out in the Rajya Sabha. Tensions are rising between the government and opposition, with concerns over electoral roll manipulation, violence in Manipur, and India's handling of the Trump administration. The government aims to secure Parliament's approval for grants, the Manipur budget, and the Waqf Amendment Bill.A fashion show in Kashmir's Gulmarg has sparked controversy, with Chief Minister Omar Abdullah saying his government had no involvement. The event, held during Ramzan, was criticized by Kashmir's chief cleric, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, who called it “outrageous” and “obscene.” Abdullah, responding to the criticism, expressed that the show disrespected local sensitivities during the holy month. The fashion show, organized to mark the 15th anniversary of designer label Shivan & Narresh, took place on snow-covered slopes of Gulmarg on Friday. Kannada actor Ranya Rao, arrested for smuggling 14.2 kg of gold worth Rs 12.56 crore, has links to a land deal in Karnataka. Rao was the majority shareholder of Ksiroda India, a company that received 12 acres of industrial land in Tumakuru from the BJP government in February 2023. Rao, also known as Harshavardini Ranya, was arrested at Bengaluru airport on March 3 by the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI). A special court later handed her over to DRI custody for further investigation. Mark Carney, former central banker in Canada and the UK, has won the Liberal Party's leadership race and will replace Justin Trudeau as Prime Minister of Canada. In his victory speech, Carney stated, “America is not Canada,” stressing the differences between the two nations. He criticized the U.S. for its resource-driven ambitions and vowed that Canada would never be part of the U.S. Carney's comments on Canadian sovereignty highlighted his commitment to protecting the country's identity and way of life. Syria's new leader, Ahmed al-Sharaa, vowed to hunt down Bashar al-Assad loyalists after over 830 civilians were killed in brutal massacres on Syria's west coast. The deaths occurred from Friday to Saturday and targeted Alawite communities. Sharaa, whose rebel group, Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), overthrew Assad's regime in December, promised to hold those responsible for the violence accountable. His speech, broadcast on TV and social media, marked a firm stance against Assad loyalists amid escalating violence in the region.  This was the Catch Up on 3 Things by the Indian Express.

This week on Hafta, Newslaundry's Abhinandan Sekhri, Manisha Pande and Anand Vardhan are joined by The Caravan's Hartosh Singh Bal and Delhi University professor Tanvir Aeijaz. The panel begins the show by discussing Narendra Modi's meeting with Donald Trump which Manisha terms “a test of statecraft” for Modi. The discussion then moves to the Delhi election result, which saw the BJP returning to power after 27 years. “This is a new BJP. It has gained strength since the 2024 Lok Sabha elections,” says Hartosh. “...These elections were not fought on Modi's back. The party now has organisational strength. Even if Modi falls to the wayside, it does not make a difference to the BJP.” As the panel discusses the AAP and Congress's performance, Abhinandan says, “One thing BJP has pulled off well is that they won Delhi without a [chief ministerial] face.”Tanvir talks about the controversy surrounding the new UGC draft guidelines that give state governors a prominent role in selecting vice-chancellors. “This regulation comes in the backdrop of the idea that we need to have one curriculum, one education system across the country,” he says. “But education is a concurrent subject…everything in a monastic form creates a problem for federalism.”This and a lot more.

Since May of 2023, the Christians in the state of Manipur in the nation of India have experienced persecution. Churches have been burned down, people have been attacked, and the Federal government of India has turned a blind eye to the violence. On today's episode of the Evangelism Podcast I speak with Khamthianmang Thangsing (Mang) from Manipur about how the church should pray for our brothers and sisters in Manipur and we talk about developing a theology of suffering.
