Handelst du absichtlich falsch, wirst du Angst, Stress und Unsicherheit erleben. „Keinen Frieden, sagt der HERR, gibt es für die Gottlosen!“ (Jes 48,22 MEB). Wann immer du eine Entscheidung triffst, die im Widerspruch zu deinem Glauben steht, verlierst du deinen Seelenfrieden. Zum Beispiel kann jemand einen Job oder eine Aufgabe annehmen, die gegen seine Überzeugungen verstößt und sein Gewissen verletzt. So standen zum Beispiel schon viele Frauen vor der Wahl, ihre Werte zu verleugnen, um eine Beförderung oder sonstige Vorteile zu erlangen. Sie hielten dies für ihre einzige Option. „Der Weg, den du für den richtigen hältst, führt dich am Ende vielleicht in den Tod.“ (Spr 16,25 GNB). Ein starker geistlicher Grundstein ist sehr wichtig. Es braucht Glauben und Mut, den eigenen Überzeugungen treu zu bleiben und das eigene Verhalten durch sie bestimmen zu lassen. Die Wahrheit ist: Letztlich ist Gott zuständig für deinen Erfolg. Sein Wort sagt: „Der Aufstieg kommt weder vom Osten noch vom Westen, noch vom Süden. Gott aber ist Richter: Er erniedrigt den einen und erhöht den anderen“ (s. Ps 75,6-7). Vertraue nicht allein auf deine Kraft! Manchmal ist die Versuchung groß, zu manipulieren oder zu lügen, um im Beruf voranzukommen. Dann verlasse dich auf Gottes Stärke. David sagte: „Der Herr ist die Stärke meines Lebens; vor wem soll ich mich fürchten?“ (s. Ps 27,1). Gebet: „Vater, bewahre mich vor Versuchung und erlöse mich vom Bösen. Hilf mir, das Richtige zu tun.“

His emphasis on balancing quality over quantity provides a refreshing perspective for runners at any level.The podcast also features a spotlight on Megan, who transformed from a back-of-pack runner to discovering new speed at the Panerathon 10K, plus race reports from across the country showing how summer training is leading to fall PRs.

Exposição “Amazônias”: povos indígenas e museu francês de Lyon constroem novo olhar sobre a floresta

A exposição "Amazonies" (Amazônias) no Museu das Confluências, em Lyon, sudeste da França, é uma iniciativa que busca apresentar uma visão multifacetada e contemporânea da Amazônia e de seus povos. A curadora Marie-Paule Imberti realizou um ciclo de viagens para a produção da mostra, em cartaz até 8 de fevereiro de 2026. Patrícia Moribe, enviada especial da RFI a Lyon Responsável pelas coleções das Américas e do círculo polar da instituição, Imberti explica que a exposição é fruto de pesquisas iniciadas em 2018 para a constituição de uma coleção material e imaterial, em parceria com populações indígenas. A ideia central era formar essa coleção e "trabalhar e tecer laços com os parceiros", afirma. A mostra tem como um de seus principais objetivos apresentar o trabalho feito junto a quatro povos indígenas do Brasil: os Mebêngôkre (Kayapó), os Ashaninka, os Wayana e os Aparai. Imberti enfatiza a importância de "mudar os estereótipos e mostrar que essas culturas são dinâmicas, vivas, que têm coisas a reivindicar, a nos dizer". Essa intenção de desmistificar e humanizar a Amazônia é um ponto crucial, como destaca Shatsi Piyako, representante Ashaninka, que inicialmente temia que o projeto se tornasse "um cemitério" de seu povo, mas se sentiu "tranquilizada" ao perceber "um outro olhar, vivo" no museu. Ao conceber a exposição, Marie-Paule Imberti e sua equipe pensaram em um público amplo, incluindo crianças. A mostra é "realmente destinada a um público familiar", e os visitantes podem mergulhar em um "universo sonoro" da natureza e dos animais. Constituição da coleção e missões de campo Segundo Imberti, "a maioria das peças é proveniente da coleção que constituímos no terreno com eles". Os objetos foram adquiridos diretamente junto às populações e os vídeos e fotografias foram realizados durante as missões de campo. No total, cerca de 500 objetos foram adquiridos e trazidos para a França, dos quais 220 estão expostos. Algumas peças de coleções arqueológicas foram obtidas por meio de empréstimos. As missões de campo foram realizadas por Marie-Paule Imberti em parceria com Serge Guirot, presidente da associação Jabirou Prod, videomaker e fotógrafo com vasta experiência na região. As viagens aconteceram ao longo de três anos, com cada missão durando entre três semanas e um mês. A equipe visitou, em 2018, os Mebêngôkre (Kayapó); em 2019, os Ashaninka, na região próxima à fronteira com o Peru; e, em 2022, os Wayana e os Aparai, no extremo norte, próximos à fronteira com a Guiana Francesa, após uma pausa provocada pela pandemia de Covid-19. Marie-Paule Imberti ressalta que as missões no Brasil foram realizadas "com o acordo e a colaboração dos habitantes das diferentes aldeias e da FUNAI (Fundação Nacional dos Povos Indígenas)". Apesar de ser destinada a um público amplo, a exposição consegue mostrar as caracteristidas dos três povos distintos, explicando origens, tradições, e reivindicações. A programação, iniciada em abril, contou com a presença de representantes da comunidade Ashaninka, discussões sobre ecologia, concerto de carimbó, show de boi bumbá e prevê ainda concertos para o mês de novembro.  "Amazônias", no museu Confluences, faz parte da Temporada França Brasil 2025.

The VW Bus, in its many forms, has become one of the most recognizable vehicles in the company's history. Sure, it might be second to the VW Beetle, but even that might be a close race. While the bus has been out of production for decades for use in the U.S. market, the folks at VW showed off a battery-electric concept in 2016 dubbed BUDD-e. Of course, wiser heads prevailed, and the concept van was updated and given a new name in 2017: ID. Buzz. Of course, it would be a while before the ID. Buzz hit U.S. shores, but a successor to the VW Bus is finally showing up on U.S. streets. The '25 VW ID. Buzz rides on the brand's MEB platform and packs a 91-kWh battery pack under its floor. That battery feeds a 282 hp rear motor or a 335 hp dual-motor powertrain.On this episode of Quick Spin, Autoweek's Mark Vaughn hops behind the wheel of the 2025 VW ID Buzz and puts it through its paces. Vaughn takes you on a guided tour of the ID. Buzz to highlight some of his favorite features. Later, Vaughn takes you along for a live drive review. Adding to these segments, Vaughn chats with host Wesley Wren about the '25 ID. Buzz, minivans as a whole, and more. Closing the show, the pair breaks down what makes the 2025 VW ID. Buzz special.
