A federal appeals court has ruled that Christian schools in Maine must comply with the state's LGBT policies if they want to participate in the tuition assistance program. Is this an isolated case—or part of a much larger pattern? In this episode of Fearless with Mark & Amber, we revisit themes from our documentary Title IX: Demoralizing America and explain why this legal battle is about far more than sports or education. It's ultimately a conflict between two competing worldviews: God's design versus man's ever-changing definitions of truth. We discuss: - Why government funding always comes with strings attached - How this mirrors warnings we've shared for years - The growing pressure on Christian schools and churches - Why biblical identity matters more than ever - How parents can prepare their families before another school year begins Our prayer is not to create fear—but to equip Christians to stand firm, think biblically, and disciple the next generation.

In this fun episode, BOW's guest, Dr. Nika Spaulding, shares how to create Bible teaching that sticks. In other words, how can you, as a Bible teacher, use tangible teaching tools to help your audience remember the biblical point of your teaching? Using the senses, physical teaching aids and play will enable you to enable others to better grasp and possibly clarify deeper biblical concepts.

I'm Kay Daigle. Welcome to the Beyond Ordinary Women Podcast. Today, our guest is Nika Spaulding. Nika >> Hey, Kay. Kay >> Welcome, Nika. It's always so much fun to have you. And for those of you who know Nika, Nika has been on our podcast many times and so we're always thrilled when she has time to be with us. She has a masters of Theology from Dallas Seminary. She actually went to Oklahoma University, but we don't really care about that part. And she has a Doctor of Ministry degree from Northern Seminary. So she's Dr. Spaulding. But I will not call her that. I will call you Nika. Nika >> Thank you. Kay >> Nika is really sort of our go to person for hard questions and about teaching the Bible. And so today we are talking about teaching the Bible, and we're going to talk about using teaching aids in teaching the Bible. So Nika why do teachers need to use teaching aids? Nika >> Yeah, it's such a good question. And I don't know, Kay, if you've had like your philosophy of teaching develop on this. I would say for me, this is a more recent addition to how I teach the Bible, and that is—when I was a young teacher, I kind of wanted to teach all these cool, nifty things that maybe people didn't know on their own. And now I really, really just want to make the Bible stick. I want when people leave for them to remember what we talked about, for them to be able to meditate on it. And what I have found is, you know, you probably think back to your experience when you were in elementary, junior high, high school, and you think about lessons that really stuck. There's a chance that your teacher used some sort of teaching, some sort of illustration, or maybe they brought something in the classroom or something like that. I have discovered just over the years that using teaching aids, whether it's props or engaging the senses or something like that, really allows us to help the Bible stick and that's really the goal with the teaching aids. Kay >> Great. So what are what are some of the things that you do see things in the Bible that are teaching aids? Nika >> Yeah, no, absolutely. I think that's what's interesting about it is when you think about even let's say you want to teach wisdom, you go to the Book of Proverbs so often what you see from the Proverbs is they take stuff you already know, stuff from nature, stuff that you've experienced in life. And then they say, “Hey, this, this is what that's like.” So a perfect example is you might talk about honey is how the Word of God is. It's so sweet, right? And if you've ever tasted honey, especially pre modern food where we have sugar at our fingertips at all times, you kind of think about how like, am I? I'm sure in my pantry right now I can eat sugar, but in the ancient days, having that ability, honey, was a really sweet experience. So to compare that to the Bible, we see how the Bible also uses teaching as Jesus does. This in his parables all the time.

Část politiků a voličů v Česku pohrdá termínem liberální demokracie, myslí si filozof a historik Petr Hlaváček. Pojem přitom podle něj vysvětluje, že demokracie nemá být postavena jen na tom, že zvolená většina vládne bez ohledu na další pravidla a ústavní zvyklosti. Hlaváček v Osobnosti Plus vysvětluje, proč podle něj premiér Andrej Babiš (ANO) roztáčí kola destrukce demokracie a proč by neměl ignorovat prezidenta republiky.Všechny díly podcastu Osobnost Plus můžete pohodlně poslouchat v mobilní aplikaci mujRozhlas pro Android a iOS nebo na webu mujRozhlas.cz.

Michael Germi is a former Muslim born in Iran into a Shia Muslim family. In this setting he learned to practice Islam praying 5 times a day toward Mecca. He fasted during Ramadan. He practiced self-mutilation for the cause of Allah. He migrated to Australia in 2006 and in 2009 placed his trust in Jesus Christ. He later moved to the States where he is a missionary with Baptist World Mission and now proclaims the Gospel to Islamic nations by satellite TV, satellite radio and internet radio. He has written several Farsi Christian books and desires to plant churches around the world where Persians are scattered. After 13 days of strikes, the United States has paused its military actions against Iran hoping for diplomacy to take place. The U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, Mike Walz said yesterday that the President was "giving talks some space, he's giving a little bit of room." A senior official in the Trump administration said that the President "has always been clear that his preference is diplomacy, but he has shown Iran what will happen if they fail to come to the table in a serious way." Today Iran says it is still in control of the Strait of Hormuz and is not seeking to resume peace talks with the United States. As a matter of fact, a spokesperson for Iran's Foreign Ministry, Esmail Baghaei said Iran has not asked to resume peace talks with the United States. Last week wng.org reported that "Iran's Ministry of Intelligence recently classified several Persian-language Christian satellite TV broadcasters as hostile organizations." Such Christian broadcasters were being banned alongside other groups such as Voice of America, BBC Persian and Israeli outlets. "Iran

In this sermon, Pastor Rick continues the Facing Our Level series by teaching that our spiritual level is ultimately revealed by how we serve others. Using Jesus' teaching in Matthew 25, he explains that genuine faith is demonstrated through compassion, generosity, and a willingness to minister to those in need, while challenging believers to remove the distractions that keep them from focusing on God's priorities.

Discover how to remain zealous in ministry even when tested. In Four Reminders For Zealous Ministry, learn to overcome fear with faith. In this expository sermon on 2 Timothy 1, Pastor Richard Caldwell addresses the very real temptation to shrink back from our calling. The Apostle Paul writes to a younger Timothy who was struggling with timidity and a waning passion for his work. We are reminded that God calls every believer to exercise their spiritual gifts with bold faithfulness rather than shrinking back. When the culture saps our spiritual strength, we must learn how to overcome fear in ministry. God does not give His people a spirit of cowardice but equips them with power, love, and self discipline. We have a personal responsibility to fan into flame the gifts we received at conversion. This message preached at Founders Baptist Church will equip you to steward your spiritual resources well. By trusting in the power of God rather than your own strength, you can serve Christ with renewed vitality. Key Biblical Takeaways: - Zealous ministry is a divine calling that requires you to actively put your spiritual gifts to full use for the church. - Overcoming spiritual fatigue is entirely possible when you make choices dependent on God and obedient to His Word. - Cultivating zeal is a personal responsibility requiring you to take immediate action against listlessness and discouragement. - A fear problem is truly a faith problem, cured only by trusting in the power of God, His love, and the self control He provides in Christ.

1 Thessalonians 2:17-20 | Bret Capranica A life of faith in Christ is not devoid of emotion. Rather, it should be filled with affection for one another that affirms the truths of the gospel. It is demonstrated by true love for our brothers and sisters in the body of Christ, with an eye both to our current fellowship and to our presentation as blameless before the judgment seat of Christ. As Christ unites believers in the mission of the church, let us join with care and love that befits our calling.

9Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. 10Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; 11Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; 12Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; 13Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality.

Traditional pharmaceutical distribution models operate under thin margins, fixed government fees, and highly capital-intensive storage metrics. When public-listed legacy giant Pharmaniaga hit a sudden PN17 classification due to a massive RM552 million vaccine provisioning write-down, the market braced for a long, drawn-out restructuring. Instead, they executed one of the fastest regularization turnarounds in Bursa Malaysia's history. In this episode of Do More, we sit down with Dato' Zulkifli Jafar, Managing Director of Pharmaniaga Berhad, to dissect the exact corporate playbook driving their institutional recovery and structural reset. Dato' Zulkifli clears the air regarding widespread public misperceptions surrounding their national concession agreement—clarifying that Pharmaniaga essentially functions as the high-capacity, nationwide "Lalamove or Shopee" logistics grid for healthcare, while product selection and volumes are tightly dictated by the Ministry of Health. We pull back the curtain on the granular unit economics of their rapid recovery: from bringing in 19 private placement investors to raise over RM500 million and paring down debt, to integrating dynamic S&OP demand planning frameworks. He explains the exact operational mechanics behind automating inventory blocks—successfully optimizing their government stockpile requirements from RM400 million down to RM250 million, saving RM7.6 million a year in interest costs alone. Finally, we explore their strategic 2030 roadmap: shifting resources away from legacy distribution grids and executing an aggressive pivot into high-margin upstream manufacturing, fill-and-finish capabilities, and proprietary biologics to protect Malaysia's sovereign drug supply.

Can science and Scripture really agree? In this episode of Fearless with Mark & Amber, we sit down with internationally recognized speaker, author, and founder of The Starting Point Project, Jay Seegert, to tackle one of the biggest questions facing Christians today: Can we confidently defend the authority of God's Word?

What does effective disciple-making look like across different cultures—and what can leaders in the United States learn from what God is doing around the world? In this episode of the No Regrets Leadership Podcast, Albo Esilaba talks with Steven Steinhaus, Regional Director for New Generations in Southeast Asia. Drawing from more than 22 years of missionary service, Steven shares how his understanding of leadership changed from personally filling every leadership gap to identifying, encouraging, and coaching others to lead. Steven discusses: Why disciple making begins before someone comes to faith The difference between counting conversions and developing reproducing disciples Why people in many gospel-unreached cultures may be more spiritually open than Western leaders assume How Discovery Bible Study helps people encounter Scripture without importing unnecessary cultural assumptions Opportunities to engage immigrants and refugees with the gospel Why leaders must allow others to see them faithfully following Jesus Steven also shares stories from Southeast Asia, Chicago, and other parts of the world that demonstrate how simple conversations, visible faith, and an invitation to explore Scripture can open the door to life-changing relationships. His final challenge to leaders is direct: Do not merely tell others how to follow Jesus. Live in a way that allows them to follow your example as you follow Christ.
