In this powerful and first-ever interview with a Latter-day Saint convert from Kenya, we explore the remarkable faith journey of Dr. Joe Ngatia (pronounced “ga-tia”). Africa has become one of the fastest growing regions for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, yet Joe's story reveals the complexities behind that growth – from faith and miracles to history, race, and resilience.Joe shares his encounter with the missionaries and how his family first reacted having only heard rumors about “Mormons being devil worshippers.” His story moves from Nairobi to Rexburg, Idaho, BYU-Provo, and on to medical school in Florida, chronicling his faith, struggles with racism in America, and developing cracks in his testimony. Joe reflects on questions of revelation, truth, miracles, and identity – asking what it means to remain true to one's own spiritual experiences while confronting painful history?This is one of our most profound and far-reaching conversations yet – bridging continents, beliefs, and experiences in search of understanding.___________________YouTubeAt Mormon Stories we explore, celebrate, and challenge Mormon culture through in-depth stories told by members and former members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as well as scholars, authors, LDS apologists, and other professionals.  Our overall mission is to: 1.

Simwood Partners with ChallengeAid to Support Education in Nairobi, Podcast, Simwood, a software-defined carrier based in the UK with operations in 21 U.S. states, has committed ongoing financial support to ChallengeAid's network of 53 Schools of Hope “It's the difference between a life of hopelessness and a life of opportunity.” — Simon Woodhead, Founder & CEO, Simwood Group In this special Cloud Communications Alliance (CCA) edition of the Technology Reseller News podcast, Doug Green speaks with Simon Woodhead, Founder and CEO of Simwood, about the company's partnership with ChallengeAid, a British and African charity transforming lives through education in Nairobi's informal settlements. Simwood, a software-defined carrier based in the UK with operations in 21 U.S. states, has committed ongoing financial support to ChallengeAid's network of 53 Schools of Hope. These community-based schools offer free education, mentorship, and safety to children living in extreme poverty — many of whom would otherwise face lives defined by child labor, drugs, or exploitation. Among these is the newly renamed Simwood School of Hope, a special needs institution in the Mathare area of Nairobi. The school supports 58 teenagers and provides care for nearly 300 children with disabilities. “This one resonated deeply with me,” says Woodhead. “Special needs education is rarely the first cause people support, but here it's absolutely life-saving.” ChallengeAid's impact is profound: over 100,000 children educated since 2004, 150 local volunteers (many former students), and even national chess champions and university graduates among its alumni. Simwood's involvement ensures that these programs can continue to grow, with plans to expand employee engagement and provide technology education in the future.

On World Mental Health Day, youth mental health expert Bryan Gouge, PhD (Compassion International) sits down with Ginny to flip the script—from “fix the kid” to “build the village.” Bryan explains why mental health isn't just diagnoses; it's a practice we do together. You'll hear the four pillars guiding Compassion's global work—strength-based, youth-centric, trauma-informed, and locally owned—and how they translate into family life. His stories are unforgettable: teens in Nairobi's Dandora slum turning peer groups into a youth-led NGO, and the way reframing “symptoms” (anxious kids as hyper-observant, depressed kids as deeply empathetic) unlocks hidden strengths. He ties it all to nature and presence: shared sunsets, forest walks, and the simple power of truly listening—because resilience grows where kids feel known, loved, and protected. This conversation matters now because parents feel the pressure to perform while kids drown in stress and isolation. Bryan offers concrete moves you can make this week: write a short family mission, increase the ratio of caring adults in your child's life, choose gatherings over grind, consider how your neighborhood supports connection (even in small ways), and practice “listen before fix.” You'll leave with a hopeful, doable vision: resilient kids are built together, not alone. Press play to rethink support, re-center community, and rediscover the healing rhythm of being outside—side by side. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Have you ever wondered what Ayurveda is?In this podcast, we explored how Reiki's gentle yet powerful energy can guide us back into balance and alignment—and how the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda can support that process in simple, practical ways.I shared some of the small shifts that changed everything for me: drinking water first thing in the morning, rising and resting with the sun, noticing the seven kinds of hunger, keeping a food journal, brushing my skin, and even healing my gut with the help of sourdough bread.So many empaths and people with autoimmune challenges struggle with digestion, sleep, and balance. Together, we explored how Reiki helps us identify areas where we're out of alignment, and how Ayurveda provides gentle practices to restore harmony.We closed with a guided Reiki meditation to help you sense where balance is needed in your own life—and invite Reiki and Ayurveda to work together in bringing you home to health and wholeness.Here are some of recipes from the share:Golden milk2 cups milk1tsp turmeric½ tsp cinnamon¼ tsp ginger black pepperHoney after heatingSour Dough Starter1 cup flour (can use gluten-free)1 cup warm waterpinch of yeastcover loosely and leave on counter 24 hours or more until it starts bubbling; each day, remove 1/2-1 cup starter to use in recipes and add more flour and water.  When you want to slow it down, or don't need to bake, place it in the fridge.Sourdough biscuitsDry ingredients1 cup flour (I use gluten-free mix)½ tsp fine pink salt¼ tsp baking soda1 tsp baking powder2 tbsp butterWet ingredients1 cup active sourdough starter2-4 Tbsp milk optional 1 tsp honey helps gluten-free biscuits brownI add additional butter and liquid and bake these in muffin tins at 425 degrees for 18-22 minutes until they are golden brown - enjoy!We also talked about this…Want to come to Africa with me?I'm thrilled to finally share something that has long been on my heart — a Reiki journey to Africa!For years, I've dreamed of visiting Africa, the cradle of humankind, but it always felt out of reach.Now, it isn't.We'll gather in Nairobi for Reiki and Animal Reiki training, deep healing, and connection with the land and animals, while also experiencing some of Africa's most treasured sites — the Giraffe Centre, Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage, Nairobi National Park, and Naivasha Game Park.There's room for just six students.  Past students are welcome to join and review their classes at a special price, and the remainder of the details are on us!  We will arrange transportation, accommodations, even some meals.  If this speaks to you, I'd love to have you join us!To learn more, please join Kristy and I for an Information Q&A Session with an African-inspired meditation on Monday, October 13, at 10am Eastern time.______Pam Allen-LeBlanc is a scientist, businesswoman, and Licensed Reiki Master Teacher (LRMT) with the International Center for Reiki Training.Get in Touch with Pam:pam@reikifromthefarm.comwww.reikifromthefarm.comRegister for our newsletter!

Great Restoration and Revival (audio) David Eells 10/8/25 Tommy Hicks – 7/25/1961 (David's notes in red) (This is a powerful vision given to American preacher Tommy Hicks, who was a major figure in the 1954 Argentina Revival.) A vision of the Body of Christ in the End-time ministries. (My message begins July 25, about 2:30 in the morning at Winnipeg, Canada. I had hardly fallen asleep when the vision and the revelation that God gave me came before me. The vision came three times, exactly in detail, the morning of July 25, 1961. I was so stirred and so moved by the revelation that this has changed my complete outlook upon the body of Christ, and upon the end-time ministries. The greatest thing that the church of Jesus Christ has ever been given lies straight ahead. It is so hard to help men and women to realize and understand the thing that God is trying to give his people in the end times. I received a letter several weeks ago from one of our native evangelists down in Africa, down in Nairobi. This man and his wife were on their way to Tanganyika. They could neither read nor could they write, but we had been supporting them for over two years. As they entered into the territory of Tanganyika, they came across a small village. The entire village was evacuating because of a plague that had hit the village. He came across natives who were weeping, and he asked them what was wrong. They told him of their mother and father who had suddenly died, and they had been dead for three days. They had to leave. They were afraid to go in; they were leaving them in the cottage. He turned and asked them where they were. They pointed to the hut and he asked them to go with him, but they refused. They were afraid to go. The native and his wife went to this little cottage and entered where the man and woman had been dead for three days. He simply stretched forth his hand in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and spoke the man's name and the woman's name and said, “In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I command life to come back to your bodies.” Instantaneously, these two heathen people who had never known Jesus Christ as their Savior sat up and immediately began to praise God. The spirit and the power of God came into the life of those people. To us that may seem strange and a phenomenon, but that is the beginning of these end-time ministries.  (I talked to a sister 3-6-25 whose husband had been dead for 81/2 months when I called him back in the name of Jesus and by the grace of God he came to her in her kitchen. In another case a husband, wife and children had been killed by Satanists as witnessed by Eve and my angel and I called them back and all immediately returned by God's grace. God can use a donkey. Back to Tommy's message.) God is going to take the do-nothings, the nobodies, the unheard-of, the no-accounts. He is going to take every man and every woman and he is going to give them this outpouring of the Spirit of God. In the Book of Acts, we read that “In the last days,” God said, “I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh.” I wonder if we realized what God meant when He said, “I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh.” I do not think I fully realized nor could I understand the fullness of it, and then I read from the Book of Joel: “Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain…” (Joel 2:23). …He is going to give to his people in these last days a double portion of the power of God!) As the vision appeared to me after I was asleep, I suddenly found myself in a great high distance. Where I was, I do not know. But I was looking down upon the earth. Suddenly the whole earth came into my view. Every nation, every kindred, every tongue came before my sight from the east and the west, the north and the south. I recognized every country and many cities that I had been in, and I was almost in fear and trembling as I beheld the great sight before me: and at that moment when the world came into view, it began to lightning and thunder. As the lightning flashed over the face of the earth, my eyes went downward and I was facing the north. Suddenly I beheld what looked like a great giant, and as I stared and looked at it, I was almost bewildered by the sight. It was so gigantic and so great. His feet seemed to reach to the north pole and his head to the south. Its arms were stretched from sea to sea. (Meaning: A great corporate body of saints.) I could not even begin to understand whether this was a mountain or a giant, but as I watched, I suddenly beheld a great giant. I could see his head was struggling for life. He wanted to live, but his body was covered with debris from head to foot (Sin and false doctrines), and at times this great giant would move his body and act as though it would even raise up at times. And when it did, thousands of little creatures seemed to run away. (Demons) Hideous creatures would run away from this giant, and when he would become calm, they would come back. All of a sudden this great giant lifted his hand towards heaven, and then it lifted its other hand (Praising the Lord!), and when it did, these creatures by the thousands seemed to flee away from this giant and go into the darkness of the night. Slowly this great giant began to rise and as he did, his head and hands went into the clouds. As he rose to his feet he seemed to have cleansed himself from the debris and filth that was upon him, and he began to raise his hands into the heavens as though praising the Lord, and as he raised his hands, they went even unto the clouds. Suddenly, every cloud became silver, the most beautiful silver (purified through heavenly fire) I have ever known. As I watched this phenomenon, it was so great, I could not even begin to understand what it all meant. I was so stirred as I watched it, and I cried unto the Lord and I said, “Oh Lord, what is the meaning of this?” and I felt as if I was actually in the Spirit and I could feel the presence of the Lord even as I was asleep. And from those clouds suddenly there came great drops of liquid light raining down upon this mighty giant (light is truth), and slowly, slowly, this giant began to melt, began to sink itself in the very earth itself, and as he melted (bearing their cross), his whole form seemed to have melted upon the face of the earth, and this great rain began to come down. Liquid drops of light began to flood the very earth itself, and as I watched this giant that seemed to melt, suddenly it became millions of people over the face of the earth. As I beheld the sight before me, people stood up all over the world! They were lifting their hands and they were praising the Lord. At that very moment, there came a great thunder that seemed to roar from the heavens. I turned my eyes toward the heavens and suddenly I saw a figure in white, in glistening white; the most glorious thing that I have ever seen in my entire life. I did not see the face, but somehow I knew it was the Lord Jesus Christ, and he stretched forth his hand, and as he did, he would stretch it forth to one, and to another, and to another. And as he stretched forth his hand upon the nations and the people of the world, men and women, as he pointed toward them, this liquid light seemed to flow from his hands into them, and a mighty anointing of God came upon them (The latter rain), and those people began to go forth in the name of the Lord. I do not know how long I watched it. It seemed it went into days and weeks and months. And I beheld this Christ as he continued to stretch forth his hand, but there was a tragedy. There were many people, as he stretched forth his hand, who refused the anointing of God and the call of God. I saw men and women that I knew. People that I felt would certainly receive the call of God. But as he stretched forth his hand toward this one and toward that one, they simply bowed their head and began to back away. And each of those that seemed to bow down and back away seemed to go into darkness. Blackness seemed to swallow them everywhere. (Faction and falling away) I was bewildered as I watched it, but these people that he had anointed, hundreds of thousands of people all over the world, in Africa, England, Russia, China, America, all over the world, the anointing of God was upon these people as they went forward in the name of the Lord. I saw these men and women as they went forth. They were ditch diggers, they were washerwomen, they were rich men, they were poor men. I saw people who were bound with paralysis and sickness and blindness and deafness. As the Lord stretched forth to give them this anointing, they became well, they became healed, and they went forth exactly as the Lord did. And this is the miracle of it - this is the glorious miracle of it. It seemed as if there was this same liquid fire in their hands - those people would stretch forth their hands and say, “According to my word, be thou made whole.” These people continued in this mighty end-time ministry. I did not fully realize what it was, and I looked to the Lord and said, “What is the meaning of this?” And he said, “This is that which I will do in the last days. I will restore all that the cankerworm, the palmerworm, the caterpillar - I will restore all that they have destroyed. This, my people, in the end times will go forth. As a mighty army shall they sweep over the face of the earth.” As I was at this great height, I could behold the whole world. I watched these people as they were going to and fro over the face of the earth. Suddenly there was a man in Africa and in a moment he was transported by the Spirit of God, and perhaps he was in Russia, or China or America or some other place, and vice versa. All over the world these people went, and they came through fire, and through pestilence, and through famine. Neither fire nor persecution, nothing seemed to stop them. Angry mobs came to them with swords and with guns. And like Jesus, they passed through the multitudes and they could not find them, but they went forth in the name of the Lord, and everywhere they stretched forth their hands, the sick were healed, the blind eyes were opened. There was not a long prayer. And after I had reviewed the vision many times in my mind, and I thought about it many times, I realized that I never saw a church, and I never saw or heard a denomination, but these people were going in the name of the Lord of Hosts. Hallelujah! As they marched forth in everything they did, as the ministry of Christ in the end times, these people were ministering to the multitudes over the face of the earth. Tens of thousands, even millions, seemed to come to the Lord Jesus Christ as these people stood forth and gave the message of the kingdom, of the coming kingdom, in this last hour. It was so glorious, but it seems as though there were those who rebelled, and they would become angry and they tried to attack those workers who were giving the message. (As in Jesus' day so it is in ours) God is going to give the world a demonstration in this last hour that the world has never known. These men and women are of all walks of life; degrees will mean nothing. I saw these workers as they were going over the face of the earth. When one would stumble and fall, another would come and pick him up. There were no “big I's” and “little you's,” but every mountain was brought low and every valley was exalted, and they seemed to have one thing in common - there was a divine love, a divine love that seemed to flow forth from these people as they worked together, and as they lived together. It was the most glorious sight that I have ever known. Jesus Christ was the theme of their life. They continued and it seemed days went by as I stood and beheld this sight. I could only cry, and sometimes I laughed. It was so wonderful as these people went throughout the face of the whole earth, bringing forth in this last end time. As I watched from the very heaven itself, there were times when great deluges of this liquid light seemed to fall upon great congregations, and they would lift up their hands and seemingly praise God for hours and even days as the Spirit of God came upon them. God said, “I will pour my Spirit upon all flesh,” and that is exactly this thing. And to every man and woman that received this power and anointing of God, the miracles were without end. (We have talked about miracles. We have talked about signs and wonders, but I could not help but weep as I read again this morning, at 4 o'clock the letter from our native workers. This is only the evidence of the beginning for one man, a “do-nothing, an unheard-of,” who would go and stretch forth his hand and say, “In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I command life to flow into your body.” I dropped to my knees and began to pray again, and I said, “Lord, I know that this time is coming soon!”) And then again, as these people were going about the face of the earth, a great persecution seemed to come from every angle. Suddenly, there was another great clap of thunder that seemed to resound around the world, and I heard again the voice that seemed to speak, “Now this is my people. This is my beloved bride.” (In Revelation, we see the Bride in her “lampros,” liquid light garment who has been doing miracles all over the world. Rev.19:7 Let us rejoice and be exceeding glad, and let us give the glory unto him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. 8 And it was given unto her that she should array herself in fine linen, bright (Lampros) and pure: for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints. John the Baptist saw Jesus' first fruits disciples and called them the Bride for he said, “He that hath the Bride is the Bridegroom.” This Bride went forth to do miracles in the gospels and in Acts and to pass this anointing on to the rest of the church. Then in Revelation we see the rest of the church in a white or “leukos” garment who are invited to the marriage. Rev.19:14 And the armies which are in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white (Leukos) and pure. And below we will see in Tommy's revelation the dead in Christ rising to be joined with them at the end of the seven-year tribulation.) And when the voice spoke, I looked upon the earth and I could see the lakes and the mountains. The graves were opened, and people from all over the world, the saints of all ages, seemed to be rising. (The dead in Christ will rise first.) And as they rose from the grave, suddenly all these people came from every direction. From the East and the West, from the North and the South, and they seemed to be forming again this gigantic body. As the dead in Christ seemed to be rising first I could hardly comprehend it. It was so marvelous. It was so far beyond anything I could ever dream or think of. But as this body suddenly began to form and take shape again, it was in the form of this mighty giant, but this time it was different. It was arrayed in the most beautiful, gorgeous white. (In Rev.19:14 this is the white or “leukos” garments of the church.) Its garments were without spot or wrinkle as its body began to form, and the people of all ages seemed to be gathered into this body, and slowly, slowly, as it began to form up into the very heavens, suddenly from the heavens above, the Lord Jesus came, and became the head.  (Now, Jesus is the head of the Bride, John said was Jerusalem, just as David, as a type of the Man-child reformers, was head of the Bride, Jerusalem. In this way Jesus and David were also the head of the rest of the Body of Israel; a type of the Church. We see this same relationship of Esther as the Bride head of the body of Israel and the Shulammite in Song of Solomon as the Bride head of Israel.) I heard another clap of thunder that said, “This is my beloved bride for whom I have waited. She will come forth even tried by fire. This is she that I have loved from the beginning of time.” As I watched, my eyes suddenly turned to the far north, and I saw destruction of men and women in anguish and crying out, and buildings in destruction. Then I heard again, the fourth voice that said, “Now is My wrath being poured out upon the face of the earth.” (The Day of the Lord's wrath upon those who persecuted God's people.) From the ends of the whole world, the wrath of God seemed to be poured out and it seemed that there were great vials of God's wrath being poured out upon the face of the earth. (The seals and trumps of the tribulation were followed by the vials of wrath in the day of the Lord. There are seven years before the Bride and Church are caught up followed by the year of wrath on the wicked who persecuted them. Isa.34:8 For Jehovah hath a day of vengeance, a year of recompense for the cause of Zion.) I can remember it as though it happened a moment ago. I shook and trembled as I beheld the awful sight of seeing the cities and whole nations going down into destruction. I could hear the weeping and wailing. I could hear people crying. They seemed to cry as they went into caves, but the caves in the mountains opened up. They leaped into the water, but the water would not drown them. There was nothing that could destroy them. They were wanting to take their lives, but they could not. Then again I turned my eyes to this glorious sight, this body arrayed in beautiful white, shining garments. Slowly, slowly, it began to lift from the earth, and as it did, I awoke. (This is the catching up of the lampros Bride and white Church body at the end of the tribulation before the Great and Terrible Day of the Lord.) What a sight I had beheld! I had seen the end-time ministries - the last hour. Again, on July 27, at 2:30 in the morning, the same revelation, the same vision came again exactly as it did before. My life has been changed as I realized that we are living in that end time, for all over the world God is anointing men and women with this ministry. It will not be doctrine. It will not be a churchianity. It is going to be Jesus Christ. They will give forth the word of the Lord. I heard it said so many times in the vision, “And according to my word it shall be done.”   Joel's Restoration Begins Sandy Shaw - 3/30/12 (David's notes in red) In this dream we were in a place that looked like Tahlequah, Oklahoma but it was bigger and prettier. It was really beautiful. (In Cherokee, Tahlequah means, “just two or two is enough”. Just as Jesus sent out the disciples and the 70 two by two, so it will be in our day when Jesus in the Man-child ministers will send out the two witnesses in the Great Revival.) There were a lot of people from UBM there, not just local but from all over. The people there were like-minded. There were many ages, from babies all the way up to old men. There was singing, praying, eating, and all kinds of fellowship and the kids were playing. It was like in a big meadow with a lot of shade trees. There was just ‘a oneness' there; it was peaceful and really beautiful. The sun felt so good. Then it started to rain while the sun was still shining, and the rain lasted only a few seconds before it began to pour down like a waterfall. It was just a steady, flowing stream of water hitting everyone there, from the babies to the oldest. (A renewal of the former rain upon the saints and then the beginning of the latter rain upon the David reformer ministries before it's given to the saints, just as Joel spoke of and the Gospels show in type: (Joe.2:22) Be not afraid, ye beasts of the field; for the pastures of the wilderness do spring, for the tree beareth its fruit, the fig-tree and the vine do yield their strength. (23) Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in Jehovah your God; for he giveth you the former rain in just measure, and he causeth to come down for you the rain, the former rain and the latter rain, in the first [month]. (Note: Hos.6:3… he (the Lord) will come unto us as the rain, as the latter rain that watereth the earth. The Lord will come as the anointing of the Holy Spirit not in the air or in a rapture of the Church!!) Back to Joel (24) And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil. (25) And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the canker-worm, and the caterpillar, and the palmer-worm (representing the curse on God's people), my great army which I sent among you. (26) And ye shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, and shall praise the name of Jehovah your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you; and my people shall never be put to shame. (27) And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am Jehovah your God, and there is none else; and my people shall never be put to shame. (28) And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: (29) and also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my Spirit. Everyone was feeling this water and it was filling us up. It was freshness and newness and it didn't feel like any other kind of anointing one has ever felt before. We knew that we knew, it was there to stay. Everyone had their faces up to the water, to the anointing, feeling the water. (I am not doing it justice in explaining how it felt; how it was filling us up and how we all felt; even to say, “Walking on a cloud” is not the right words but I don't know any other words.) I saw people walking on stones and stickers in the ground, and we were barefoot, and it didn't hurt us, like we didn't feel it. (Representing walking above the curses of this world with no hurt.) We knew that we knew, our entire body was anointed of God. We knew what we were doing was ordained of God and we were just doing it. There were no questions. (I just can't explain the oneness or the way our hands felt; like they were not our hands, but the Lord's hands. …Each step was ordained of the Lord. We knew that nothing could take away what God had given to us. We were being completely used by Him. It was like walking or moving on clouds.) ... When everyone was filled, ... that's when we heard God tell us, “Ok, get busy; we're going to work now”. (The beginning of the spread of the revival.)   Revival Beginning at UBM Charlie Smith - 12/12/12 (David's notes in red) Notice the date of this dream: 12/12/12, the fullness of the elect. In the early hours of the morning, the Lord gave me this dream. In it, suddenly, I appeared in a large room where I saw brother David (representing the David Man-child reformers) and about 10 or 12 brethren standing around. (I asked the Lord if this was 12 and got a yes, which fits with Jesus and his 12 when revival began then.) I knew David, but his features had changed some. I mean, he really looked great. I could really see God in the man like I never had before. (David, here is a type of the Man-child reformers who will start this revival, just as Jesus, the Son of David, did in His time. The things that have been are the things that will be.) And I knew him, but the other brethren I did not recognize, although I really did know who they were. As I stood looking, a man came over to me and He was the Lord! The brethren were being taught how to minister to the needs of the people. Brother David walked across the room to pray for a man who came for healing. He stood before the man and said, “Be healed,” and the man was healed instantly. David turned and walked back to the other side of the room. (God's power is made perfect in man's weakness, so that no flesh can glory.) The brethren, as well as I, were amazed that the man was healed, and we started praising God and giving thanks. As we rejoiced, another man came forward for healing who was blind. One of the brethren came forth and laid hands on the man's head, saying, “Receive your sight”. And the man cried out, “I'm healed and I can see!” Other people in the room who were in need came forth immediately, some with missing or deformed limbs, twisted bodies, crippled, all such of humanity that was so pitiful; they came up and every one of them was healed instantly. I said, “Oh, God, how is it that everyone was healed instantly, so fast, so easily? Some had hands laid on them and others did not, but they were all healed”. The Lord smiled and said, “You could not see”. Then the Lord opened my spiritual eyes and said, “Now look”. And He showed me again the part where David said to the man, “Be healed”. This time I could see the words “Be healed” coming out of David's mouth, like a mist, and entering into the man. And as the word went into the man, he was instantly healed. I received a few scriptures that go with this dream: (Isa.55:11) So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth. It shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please; and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. (Jer.1:12) I watch over my word to perform it. (Eze.12:25) For I am Jehovah and I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall be performed. (Rom.10:8) The word is nigh thee, in thy mouth and in thy heart. And I was still wondering about the mist that I saw, and I got (Joh.6:63) The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life. So I understood that, like Jesus spoke the Word, and it came to pass, so these brethren operated on that level. The scene changed and we were in a different, larger room. David and about 100 or more other brethren were gathered together. The brethren were being taught how to minister and were then sent forth. They went forth preaching the Word and healing the sick everywhere. The brethren covered much of this area and you couldn't go anywhere without seeing them. (Many Man-child ministers are coming here and they will send forth disciples as Jesus did.) And then the scene quickly changed again, and we were at another place outside. It was a large, grassy area with parking nearby, but I don't know where it was. Brother David and maybe as many as 500 brethren were gathered together and crowds of people were coming from everywhere. It looked like thousands or even hundreds of thousands were coming. The meetings ran day and night. One night, all the people saw a pillar of fire burning in our midst. They were being drawn by the Lord, and it was a holy move of God. So many saints were now coming together. Again, the scene quickly changed and I was lifted up, looking down on the earth, and I saw the saints running through all the earth, spreading the gospel and the light was shining all over the earth. I think what I saw was a revival to prepare the saints to manifest sons of God in the earth to do the will of the Father. I also believe that this is a revival for the Man-child because in every one of those scenes where David and the brethren were gathered, they were being taught how to minister the Word and heal the sick. And I noticed that everything was on a higher level than what we're used to now. They didn't spend a lot of time and use a lot of words when they prayed; they just commanded it and it was immediately done. And when they gave the Gospel, they didn't have to stand there for hours trying to nail a point down. It was just like the glory of the Lord fell. When these brethren got around people out here on the streets to witness, the glory of the Lord was so strong that they just automatically fell down and cried, “Save me!” This was definitely a sign to us all that God's getting ready to do something wonderful here. I'm just like my brothers and sisters here. I want to be a part of it because I know God's going to do a fantastic work here and it's going to spread worldwide because I saw the lights cover the whole earth. I don't know when this is going to happen, but I know it will. Amen. We are informed by the Lord in many more dreams and scriptures that there is coming a great revival here and across the country and world. It will be in the midst of darkness and turmoil and many will come out of darkness. (Isa.60:1) Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of Jehovah is risen upon thee. (2) For, behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the peoples; but Jehovah will arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. (3) And nations shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising. (4) Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: they all gather themselves together, they come to thee; thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be carried in the arms. (5) Then thou shalt see and be radiant, and thy heart shall thrill and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be turned unto thee, the wealth of the nations shall come unto thee. We have a part in this. The principalities and powers of darkness have been put under our feet, but we must fight the good fight of the faith and cast them down from over UBM, this area, the U.S, and many other countries. (Luk.10:18) And he said unto them, I beheld Satan fallen as lightning from heaven. (19) Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you. (20) Nevertheless in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven. Let us have fasting and prayer and praise meetings and confess our sins and cast down these powers. Let us decree freedom from bondage and darkness. I received this: (Job 22:28) Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee; And light shall shine upon thy ways. (29) When they cast [thee] down, thou shalt say, [There is] lifting up; And the humble person he will save. (30) He will deliver [even] him that is not innocent: Yea, he shall be delivered through the cleanness of thy hands.   Prophet Phillip shared this vision with us: (Spearheading the Man-child) I have prayed for three days now for the Holy Father's will in this matter of sharing the vision I received during a meeting with David as the speaker (in Phoenix, a type of resurrection life). (I had never seen Phillip before this.) I am permitted to share the following: As I prayed with David at the start of the meeting, I saw the room change into a stadium filled with people and David was at the podium shouting through a microphone that was in the shape of a shofar. He wore a silver yarmulke that glowed as he spoke, and from above it came a white golden light pouring down from the sky as a beam of glory growing brighter with each outpouring. From David's clothing came the same glory lights pouring through the tzit-tzit on his garment, flowing like fingers through the people. They touched the forehead and were grabbed by the right hand of people who became pregnant (with Christ) and began shouting as they were covered in glory. This is the vision I had at the meeting. The Holy Father says that David would know its meaning, if not now, very soon. (All glory to God, He chooses the weak to show this.  He can speak through a donkey.)   Months after that meeting, we received this from Phillip: Holy Yahweh is forming this ministry into His Image to spearhead the Man-child Ministry Birthing and Delivery to the World! Amen! He has given this to me in a mighty vision that ran and continued for three nights along with some other things that I can't say just yet. In short, brethren, the “white golden light pouring down from the sky as a beam of glory” will flow through obedient servants in whom Christ is manifested through the latter rain and belief in the truth. It will flow first through the man-child and then through the witnesses to the Church at large. (This light is pouring down from the sky upon the giant body of Christ in Tommy Hick's revelation.)

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. Before the start of my Senior year, I had a surprise chance to come to the States, so I set out from the island of Bioko in Central Africa for far off middle America. The whole way across the Atlantic, I had almost exclusively one thing on my mind: new music! I was barely settled in my room at a small hostel for missionary kids in college, and I was looking for a ride to record store. It might be hard to remember what it was like in the days before streaming and clouds and the digital revolution we're currently in, but back then, unless I wanted to buy grainy knock off cassettes in Nairobi, the land of music was America. Barely had my feet touched the ground and I was loading up sample CDs at the store. One of those CDS has become one my favorites, one I go back to time and time again. It's Purpose by Design by Fred Hammond & Radical for Christ. This album sprints out the gate on the first track, with "I Want My Destiny." You can feel the theology of the song as much as the funky slap bass. This song is a time capsule in my journey of faith. It sings of a life redeemed by Christ. It rejoices in a life recreated for purpose. It shouts of a passion to serve the One “Who brought me and is able to keep me” and to follow Jesus “to the place where He has need of me.” These lyrics provide the surround sound of Apostle Paul's album to the Philippians. His entire epistle, according to G. Walter Hansen is Paul “urging them to join with him in his own journey to know Christ.” Hearing his epistle, set to this soundtrack, we are challenged to recognize, in Christ, our eternal citizenship has current blessing bearer responsibilities. Our salvation is fire insurance. It's calling. It's purpose. We must start living out our citizenship now. Enthusiastically awaiting Jesus' return, “with the time we have / Let's waste not all on selfish reasons / But we must seek to please Him first / Find His will upon the Earth” so that “When they look back from death to birth / They'll say they've seen Him.”

Ce « mouvement aussi viral qu'insaisissable », résume Jeune Afrique, en rappelant que la « vague » de contestations a atteint, ces derniers jours, Madagascar puis le Maroc... et menace peut-être l'Algérie, où « un compte Gen Z 213 vient d'être créé, et a lancé un appel à manifester ce vendredi ». Au Maroc, le collectif Gen Z 212 réclame désormais la démission du gouvernement. Avec ses « revendications sociales et économiques », le mouvement est né, rappelle le journal algérien El Watan, « sur Discord, une plateforme de messagerie privilégiée par les gamers ». « Personne ne sait vraiment qui sont ces jeunes, indique un sociologue interrogé par El Watan. Ce qui est sûr, c'est que ce mouvement est né de manière spontanée sur les réseaux sociaux, porté par des personnes qui n'étaient pas forcément militantes ». Cela interroge, d'ailleurs, Le Matin, le quotidien marocain qui se demande pourquoi ces jeunes choisissent « de porter leurs revendications directement dans la rue et sur les réseaux sociaux, plutôt que de s'appuyer sur la société civile, censée être un relais naturel de leurs préoccupations ». Le président du Centre marocain pour la citoyenneté apporte une première réponse : « La Génération Z évolue dans un univers façonné par l'instantanéité et de nouveaux codes d'expression. La majorité des associations, restées ancrées dans des démarches classiques, n'ont pas su adapter leurs méthodes d'intervention à cette réalité. Résultat, un fossé s'est creusé ». Un ras-le-bol au-delà du Maroc et de Madagascar « Des rues de Katmandou (au Népal), aux avenues de Lima (au Pérou), un même souffle de colère semble traverser les jeunesses des pays du Sud », observe Jeune Afrique. « Les situations locales diffèrent, les mots d'ordre ne sont pas identiques » mais « il est impossible de parler d'une simple coïncidence », estime le magazine, qui fait donc la liste des points communs de ce mouvement. L'âge et les réseaux sociaux, certes, mais aussi l'utilisation de « symboles puisés dans la pop culture », comme le drapeau pirate du manga One Piece qui « flotte en tête de cortège » ou bien le salut à trois doigts de la saga Hunger Games qui s'était imposé, en Thaïlande et en Birmanie, comme geste de ralliement et de résistance. Autre point commun relevé par Jeune Afrique : « l'absence de leaders ou de structures politiques visibles ». « Une horizontalité revendiquée au nom de la volonté de tourner la page des "anciens modèles", qui rend ces mouvements difficiles à cerner par les autorités, qui peinent à les comprendre et à les canaliser. La répression s'en fait souvent plus brutale encore ». Le magazine note, d'ailleurs, que « si les manifestations sont au départ le plus souvent pacifistes, elles prennent un tour de plus en plus violent à mesure que la répression s'abat et que les mouvements se radicalisent ». Un constat, cependant, conclut Jeune Afrique : « en quelques mois, la Gen Z a fait tomber plusieurs gouvernements. Qui sera le prochain ? » Voir au-delà des manifestations « Partout en Afrique et au-delà, les soulèvements de jeunes forcent les dirigeants à reculer », confirme le Daily Nation, à Nairobi. Mais « au-delà des manifestations, la génération Z doit se préparer à diriger », prévient le journal kényan. « L'histoire nous rappelle que si renverser le pouvoir peut se faire en quelques jours, construire quelque chose de meilleur exige des années de préparation et de patience ». La révolution égyptienne « a cédé la place au régime militaire, rappelle le Daily Nation, et les militants de Hong Kong ont été contraints à l'exil ou à la prison ». Ces mouvements doivent donc « évoluer s'ils veulent façonner ce qui adviendra après ». « Madagascar illustre, selon le quotidien, la fragilité de la situation actuelle. Le gouvernement a été dissous, mais le président est toujours là. Si les manifestants ne parviennent pas à maintenir la pression en s'organisant et en proposant des alternatives politiques, le risque est de voir le statu quo resurgir. À moins que l'énergie actuelle ne se consolide en institutions civiques et politiques durables, les victoires risquent d'être symboliques plutôt que structurelles ».

The numbers are mind blowing. According to Roadkill authors Henrietta Moore and Arthur Kay, cars have killed more people than both world wars combined. That's how toxic our relationship with cars has been over the last century, they argue. The UN figures they cite—60 to 80 million direct deaths since the automobile's invention—don't even include premature deaths from air pollution or the millions seriously injured. Yet we've become “car blind,” Moore and Kay contend, unable to see how we've surrendered 80% of urban public space to vehicles that sit idle 96% of the time, creating what they call a hidden “car industrial complex” that reshapes cities in its image. So what to do? They advocate for “choice not obligation”—redesigning cities so people can drive if they want but aren't forced to. They point to successful experiments from Barcelona's superblocks to Dallas's highway cap parks, where reclaimed streets have actually increased business revenue by up to 34% in some cases. Their goal isn't to ban cars but to stop letting them dominate every aspect of urban planning and life.1. The Deadly Math of “Car Blindness” Cars have directly killed 60-80 million people since their invention—more than WWI and WWII combined. Yet we've normalized this death toll and become “car blind” to how thoroughly automobiles dominate our lives, with 80% of urban public space dedicated to vehicles that sit unused 96% of the time.2. Electric and Self-Driving Cars Aren't Silver Bullets Moore and Kay argue that EVs and autonomous vehicles like Waymo don't solve the fundamental problem: they're still cars taking up urban space. Plus, EVs bring their own issues—from lithium extraction devastating places like Chile's Atacama Desert to the question of whether electricity generation is actually clean.3. “Choice Not Obligation” - A New Freedom Framework The authors aren't advocating car bans but rather redesigning cities so driving becomes optional rather than mandatory. They argue true 21st-century freedom means being able to walk to school safely, access nearby shops, and move through cities without car dependence—not just the 20th-century freedom to drive anywhere.4. Global South Solutions Leading the Way Surprisingly, innovations aren't coming from Copenhagen but from places like Nairobi's matatu system (on-demand informal transit) and Dallas's highway “cap parks.” These demonstrate that car reduction isn't just for wealthy European cities but can work across diverse economic contexts.5. Follow the Money - It Actually Works When done properly, reducing car dominance boosts business. Times Square restaurants saw revenue jump 34% after pedestrianization. The key is integrated planning with communities rather than top-down mandates, ensuring alternatives exist before removing parking.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Episode overview: April Long spent two years fighting reality. The co-founder and CEO of "Afro-Asia Cross-border payment infrastructure" startup Pyxis was so determined to serve Africa's small merchants - the "bottom of the pyramid" she'd read about in Harvard Business Review - that she nearly bankrupted her fintech ignoring the bulk traders actually driving Africa-China trade. In conversation with Andile Masuku, Long delivers uncomfortable truths about impact theatre versus impact reality. Her journey from receiving President Xi Jinping in Tanzania at 23 to finally accepting who actually moves goods between Africa and China at 35 offers a masterclass in entrepreneurial humility. Key insights: -On impact delusions: "I used to defend, I was like, 'No, no, no, no, no. It's that you don't get to this market.'" Long admits she lived in a bubble, desperately wanting to believe SMEs were ready for direct China trade. The truth? "90% of African trade is still happening in a more traditional way" - through the aggregators she'd dismissed as insufficiently mission-driven. - On the cost of stubbornness: Despite zero demand after six months embedded in Nairobi's wholesale markets, Long refused to pivot. "I was quite stubborn. I was like, no, we have to work with SMEs." The result: burning 90% of her time on unprofitable small traders whilst the 10% spent on bulk traders kept her company alive. - On acceptance as strategy: "The future is not here yet. And we need to build the future by serving who is there currently." Long's breakthrough came from accepting that Chinese trading companies scaling from $0 to IPO in a decade were the real infrastructure of Africa-China trade - not the romantic vision of empowered individual merchants. - On being un-fundable forcing clarity: Without millions to burn on market education, Long had to face reality faster than her funded competitors. "I'm grateful I didn't have money to burn, or else I could have burned myself." Notable moments: 1. The marketplace wake-up call: Walking through Nairobi's famous Gikomba market as a Chinese woman, traders shouted "China, China, what are you selling?" They wanted products, not payment rails. Long built the wrong solution for the right market. 2. The Eric Simanis paradox: The same Harvard Business Review article that inspired her Africa move warned against oversimplifying "bottom of pyramid" markets. Long spent years learning what she'd initially misread. 3. The three Aprils: Long describes fragmenting into Chinese April, Western April, and African April - "these narratives are so vastly different" that keeping them separate became exhausting. Building Pyxis became about reconciling these selves. The aggregator revelation: Long's former Standard Chartered clients - the Chinese trading companies she'd tried to convince to take loans in 2015 - transformed from traders to manufacturers to near-IPO giants in under a decade. They were the real story of Africa-China trade, moving containers whilst she chased individual merchants moving parcels. "These Chinese trading companies making impacts in Africa, making products super affordable... because of the storytelling, they are not recognised." Her role shifted from trying to bypass them to helping them operate more efficiently. The present tense: Long's current focus on settlement infrastructure for bulk traders isn't the sexy SME empowerment story she'd imagined. But with a 12-person team across four countries and actual revenue, she's building what the market needs today whilst preparing for the SME future she still believes will come. Image credit: Pxyis

Kwa hiyo tukitaka Umoja wa Mataifa thabiti, basi tunahitaji ahadi kutoka serikali zote duniani.Ripoti ya Katibu Mkuu wa Umoja wa Mataifa inayotolewa kila mwaka kabla ya kuanza kwa Mjadala Mkuu wa Baraza Kuu inasema Umoja wa Mataifa umeendelea kusimama imara, ukifanya kazi ya kuendeleza amani, kuchochea maendeleo endelevu, na kupunguza mateso ya kibinadamu licha ya majaribu makubwa. Katika ripoti hiyo Antonio Guterres amesisitiza uimara wa watumishi wa Umoja wa Mataifa, ambao wamejitolea kuleta matumaini na msaada kwa wale wanaohitaji licha ya kufanya kazi katika mazingira magumu.ripoti ya Hali ya Rasilimali za Maji Duniani iliyotolewa leo inasema ni takriban theluthi moja tu ya mabonde ya mito duniani yaliyokuwa na hali ya “kawaida” mwaka 2024 ilhali mengine yote yalikuwa na kiwango cha juu zaidi cha maji au chini ya kiwango cha kawaida — ikiwa ni mwaka wa sita mfululizo wa kutokuwepo kwa uwiano wa wazi.

To so many women the symptoms of pregnancy are instant, intense and unmistakeable; however some make it the full nine months without having any idea they're even pregnant. This phenomenon is known as cryptic pregnancy, and the British Medical Journal suggests it's more common than triplets. Nuala McGovern is joined by two women who have experienced this first-hand, plus Professor of Midwifery, Helen Cheyne to discuss.Actor Karen Pittman earned an Emmy nomination for her performance as The Morning Show's hardworking producer Mia Jordan, alongside co-stars including Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston. As the newsroom drama returns to Apple TV+ for a fourth season, Karen joins Nuala to discuss the show's themes, from truth and deepfakes, to women in the workplace. Karen also featured in the Netflix adaptation of Judy Blume's teen romance Forever and is known to fans of Sex and the City spin off, And Just Like That, as Dr Nya Wallace.Poet Nikita Gill tells Nuala about her latest book Hekate the Witch. She is the Greek goddess of magics, the crossroads, keys and necromancy.

His story weaves through college rowing practices at dawn, the warmth of Italian family gatherings centered around food, and the unexpected path from journalism student to education professional.The conversation takes a profound turn when Steve reflects on parenting and the accelerating nature of time as we age. "You don't want to be the person saying 'I wish I would have done that,'" he advises, emphasizing the critical importance of being fully present in each moment with loved ones. His observations about how technology affects today's students compared to previous generations offers thought-provoking insights about connection in the digital age.Throughout the episode, Steve's warmth and wisdom shine through, particularly when discussing the value of meaningful relationships and genuine human connection. His final message about kindness and inclusion serves as a powerful reminder that how we treat others ultimately defines our legacy as we measure our lives not in months, but in decades.Join us for this heartfelt conversation about worldview, presence, and the moments that truly matter.

Nairobi native Ibrahim Lwingi is scared for his life and he's not the only one. Decisions being made in the White House, halfway across the world, threaten to turn his world on its head. The proposed cuts to the US President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief or PEPFAR by the Trump administration had many in the international community rattled. CBC's James Chaarani met with Ibrahim Lwingi — and others like him — in Nairobi, Kenya for this documentary, “Everything to Lose.”

Amid global trade headwinds, China has sent fresh signals that it will further expand high-standard opening-up and promote international cooperation to provide strong momentum for its own development and boost global economic growth.在全球贸易逆风中，中国发出了新的信号，将进一步扩大高标准开放，促进国际合作，为自身发展提供强劲动力，促进全球经济增长。The message resonated strongly at three recent key international fairs that China hosted over the course of about a week — the World Smart Industry Expo 2025 in Chongqing, the 25th China International Fair for Investment and Trade in Xiamen, Fujian province, and the 2025 China International Fair for Trade in Services in Beijing.这一信息在中国最近在大约一周的时间里主办的三个主要国际博览会上引起了强烈反响，即重庆2025年世界智能产业博览会、福建省厦门市第25届中国国际投资贸易洽谈会和北京2025年中国国际服务贸易洽谈会。Within six days, President Xi Jinping sent three congratulatory messages in succession to the three events, which featured a wide range of domestic and international participants from various sectors.在六天时间内，习近平总书记先后向三次活动发送了三条贺电，吸引了国内外各界人士的广泛参与。In the letters, Xi reiterated the country's firm commitment to working with all parties to build an open world economy and advance the building of a community with a shared future for humanity.习近平在信中重申，中国坚定致力于与各方一道，建设开放型世界经济，推动构建人类命运共同体。While emphasizing that global development is facing challenges as well as opportunities amid profound changes in the world economic landscape, Xi assured the world that China will take solid measures to promote liberalization and facilitation of trade and investment, continue to share its development opportunities with the rest of the world, and inject more positive energy and greater certainty into global development.习近平强调，在世界经济格局深刻变化的背景下，全球发展既面临挑战，也面临机遇，他向世界保证，中国将采取扎实措施，促进贸易投资自由化便利化，继续与世界分享发展机遇，为全球发展注入更多正能量和更多确定性。Former Kyrgyz prime minister Djoomart Otorbaev said it is extremely important that China is opening further to the outside world. "China organized a lot of events of international level, where top specialists from around the world are attending and exchanging ideas. This is exactly what has to be done," he said in a recent interview with China Global Television Network.吉尔吉斯斯坦前总理奥托巴耶夫说，中国进一步对外开放极其重要。他在最近接受中国环球电视网采访时说：“中国组织了许多国际级的活动，来自世界各地的顶尖专家参加了这些活动并交流了意见。这正是必须做的。”。Over the years, China has been steadfastly deepening reform on all fronts to build a new system for an open economy. A series of measures on the reform of foreign trade has been introduced in areas including taxation, finance, and trade and investment facilitation.多年来，中国坚定不移地深化各方面改革，构建开放型经济新体制。在税收、金融、贸易和投资便利化等领域推出了一系列外贸改革措施。Since 2017, the total number of items on the negative list of restricted sectors for foreign investment has been reduced from 93 to 29, with all access restrictions for the manufacturing sector removed.自2017年以来，限制外商投资负面清单上的项目总数从93个减少到29个，制造业的所有准入限制都被取消。Paul Bateman, chairman of J.P. Morgan Asset Management, has visited China more than 150 times over the past 30 years. "With each visit, I'm more impressed by the vitality and growth of China's market," he said while addressing the Global Trade in Services Summit of the China International Fair for Trade in Services.摩根大通资产管理公司董事长保罗·贝特曼在过去30年里访问了中国150多次。他在中国国际服务贸易博览会全球服务贸易峰会上发表讲话时说：“每次访问，我都对中国市场的活力和增长印象深刻。”。Noting that the company's footprint in China has expanded in recent years thanks to China's decision to open up its service sector, particularly the removal of foreign equity caps in certain financial services, Bateman said that the growth of trade in services is creating significant opportunities for the industry.贝特曼指出，近年来，由于中国决定开放服务业，特别是取消了某些金融服务业的外资股权上限，该公司在中国的足迹不断扩大。他表示，服务贸易的增长为该行业创造了重大机遇。China boasts the world's largest middle-income group, with per capita GDP of approximately 96,000 yuan in 2024. It is the world's second-largest consumption market and second-largest import market, providing huge opportunities for the world.中国拥有世界上最大的中等收入群体，2024年人均国内生产总值约为9.6万元。它是世界第二大消费市场和第二大进口市场，为世界提供了巨大的机遇。China's efforts to advance high-standard opening-up bring opportunities for shared development and prosperity to countries of the Global South, while improving the global governance system, said Mutinda Mutisya, a senior lecturer in the Department of Diplomacy and International Studies at the University of Nairobi, in an interview with Xinhua News Agency.内罗毕大学外交与国际研究系高级讲师穆廷达·穆蒂西亚在接受新华社采访时表示，中国推进高标准开放的努力为全球南方国家带来了共同发展和繁荣的机遇，同时也完善了全球治理体系。Tolonbek Abdyrov, a professor of economics and vice-rector of the International Higher School of Medicine in Kyrgyzstan, said that steps taken by Chinese policymakers have created a platform for equal participation by the nation's partners, including emerging economies, adding that China's advocacy of the equal rights of all countries to development sends a clear and positive message.吉尔吉斯斯坦国际高等医学院经济学教授兼副院长Tolonbek Abdyrov表示，中国政策制定者采取的措施为包括新兴经济体在内的国家合作伙伴的平等参与创造了一个平台，并补充说，中国倡导所有国家享有平等的发展权利发出了一个明确而积极的信息。Coupled with solid steps in expanding institutional opening-up, such as aligning with high-standard international economic and trade rules, China has also made consistent efforts in improving the business environment, with tangible results.中国在扩大制度开放方面迈出了坚实步伐，如与高标准的国际经贸规则保持一致，同时也在改善营商环境方面做出了持续努力，取得了切实成果。The 2025 China Business Report, published on Wednesday by the American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai, indicated that over one-third of surveyed US companies believe that China's policies and regulations regarding foreign companies have improved in the past few years. The figure for this year is higher than that for 2024, it said.上海美国商会周三发布的《2025年中国商业报告》显示，超过三分之一的受访美国公司认为，过去几年中国对外国公司的政策和法规有所改善。报告称，今年的数字高于2024年。More than 40 percent of the companies surveyed said they are confident that China will open up further, nearly double the figure for last year, according to the report.报告显示，超过40%的受访公司表示，他们有信心中国将进一步开放，这一数字几乎是去年的两倍。The report also said that more than 70 percent of respondents posted a profit in 2024, an improvement from 2023's record low of 66 percent. The report also highlights the uncertainties that persist in the market, saying that over 60 percent of companies expect new China-US tariffs to affect their 2025 revenue performance. In addition, nearly half of the respondents called for the US government to remove all tariffs and nontariff barriers on Chinese goods.该报告还表示，超过70%的受访者在2024年实现盈利，比2023年66%的历史低点有所改善。该报告还强调了市场上持续存在的不确定性，称超过60%的公司预计中美新关税将影响其2025年的收入表现。此外，近一半的受访者呼吁美国政府取消对中国商品的所有关税和非关税壁垒。Regarding the report, Jeffrey Lehman, chair of AmCham Shanghai, said that one of the interesting results this year is that although the companies still regard the regulatory environment as challenging, they find that the challenges have been reduced since a year ago.关于这份报告，上海美国商会主席杰弗里·雷曼表示，今年一个有趣的结果是，尽管这些公司仍然认为监管环境具有挑战性，但他们发现，自一年前以来，挑战已经减少。"They find that there is improvement in the regulatory environment for American companies over what the situation was last year," Lehman said. "Before, there were a combination of tariff barriers, nontariff barriers, regulatory questions, intellectual property protection issues. In each of those areas, things are improving for American companies."雷曼兄弟表示：“他们发现，与去年相比，美国公司的监管环境有所改善。”。“以前，关税壁垒、非关税壁垒、监管问题、知识产权保护问题交织在一起。在每一个领域，美国公司的情况都在改善。”vitalityn.活力；生命力；热情/vaɪˈtæl.ə.ti/consistentv.使一致/kənˈsɪs.tənt/

D'abord plateforme du trafic de drogue mondial, le Kenya est devenu ces dernières années un marché de consommation émergent. D'après le dernier rapport de Nacada, l'Autorité nationale pour la campagne contre l'abus d'alcool et de drogues, un Kényan sur six consomme des substances illicites. Les populations les plus vulnérables sont les plus pauvres, comme à Kibera, le plus grand bidonville d'Afrique. De notre correspondante à Nairobi,  C'est à l'âge de 13 ans que Rollins Odiero Odhiambo a démarré son chemin vers l'addiction : « J'ai commencé par l'alcool illicite. Quand j'étais en primaire, ma mère en vendait pour subvenir à nos besoins. Puis, j'ai commencé à fumer de la marijuana. À l'université, des amis m'ont traîné dans la drogue. Certains ont mis des pilules dans mes verres d'alcool ». D'après Nacada, l'Autorité kényane pour la campagne contre l'abus d'alcool et de drogues, les médicaments détournés représentent la deuxième drogue la plus consommée chez les étudiants du secondaire. Il s'agit d'anxiolytiques ou d'opiacés. L'accès à ces médicaments est extrêmement simple, selon Fauzia Ithambo, ancienne consommatrice : « Une femme nous vend les médicaments dans le quartier. Je crois qu'elle travaille dans une pharmacie. Les pilules coûtent 40,50 ou 20 shillings, soit quelques centimes d'euros. Elles sont bleues, jaunes ou blanches. Prendre ces drogues, c'est très commun. Il y a des familles où le père, la mère, et même les enfants se droguent ». À lire aussiKenya: entre trafics et cartel mexicain... et si le pays devenait un producteur de drogues? Dans les rues de Kibera, une dose de crack coûte 150 shillings, soit moins d'un euro. Félix Kokonya est le fondateur d'Akili Bomba, une organisation qui aide les jeunes à sortir de la drogue. Lui-même en a consommé pendant près de trente ans. Pour lui, il n'y a pas de secret : si les prix sont bas, c'est parce que la demande est là : « Les drogues sont facilement accessibles car beaucoup de gens ont été poussés à consommer. Les dealers proposent une première dose à un pris très bas. Il y a des milliers de clients chaque jour. Si chacun achète trois ou quatre doses à 150 shillings chaque jour, cela représente beaucoup d'argent ». En 2017, le Kenya s'est doté d'un protocole national de soins aux addictions. Mais malgré cela, dans la rue, les programmes de soins et de prévention sont quasi inexistants, selon Hilda Odiaga, membre d'Akili Bomba :« Au Kenya, il n'y a que l'argent qui puisse vous aider à sortir de la drogue. Ceux qui organisent la prévention sont souvent des hommes politiques, durant leur campagne électorale. Mais une fois réélus, ils oublient ces programmes et leurs bénéficiaires. Il n'y a donc pas beaucoup d'aides qui viennent du secteur public », explique-t-elle.  D'après Nacada, la moitié des consommateurs de drogue au Kenya ont entre 10 et 19 ans.

Kaunti ya Kirinyaga, iliyoko katikati mwa nchi ya Kenya kaskazini mwa mji mkuu wa nchi hiyo, Nairobi, inashuhudia mageuzi mapya katika sekta ya kilimo kupitia mradi wa kuwahusisha vijana  katika kilimo na lishe unaojulikana kama EKYAN. Mradi huu unatekelezwa kwa ushirikiano kati ya Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Kuhudumia Watoto UNICEF, na wadau nchini humo.  Karibu Sabrina Saidi utupe taarifa zaidi.....(TAARIFA YA SABRINA SAIDI)Mradi wa EKYAN ni mfano wa ujasiriamali wa kilimo unaoongozwa na vijana, ukiwa na lengo la kutengeneza fursa za ajira, kuwanufaisha na kubadilisha maisha ya vijana walioko vijijini, kupitia mbinu bora za kilimo na lishe, ukitekelezwa kwa ushirikiano kati ya Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Kuhudumia Watoto UNICEF, serikali ya kaunti ya Kirinyaga na shirika linalotoa mafunzo, elimu ya biashara ndogo ndogo na uwezeshaji barani Afrika KUZA Biashara.Felista Nyakio Mutungi kijana mkulima wa kaunti ya Kirinyaga, ni mmoja wa wanufaika wa mafunzo kupitia mradi huo. Na hapa anasema....CUT 2- Sauti ya Felista Nyakio Mutungi“Kabla ya kuanza kilimo, nilikuwa nauza barabarani viazi vya kukaanga au chipsi,  na mihogo, pamoja na nafaka. Haikuwa vizuri sana, lakini ndiyo nafasi pekee niliyokuwa nayo wakati huo. Kupitia serikali ya kaunti ya Kirinyaga, tulisajiliwa kama vijana wanaopenda kilimo na tukapata mafunzo kupitia KUZA na UNICEF. Sasa mimi ni mkulima na mjasiriamali.”Felista anasema awali alikuwa akilima robo ekari ya mpunga na kuvuna magunia manne hadi matano pekee. Lakini baada ya mradi wa EKYAN, kwa robo ekari hiyo hiyo sasa anapata hadi magunia saba. Aidha, shamba lake limepanuka hadi ekari nne katika eneo la 'mradi wa umwagiliaji wa Bura.Felista hakutaka kuwa mchoyo wa manufaa aliyopata, hivyo ameamua kueneza ujuzi wa kilimo cha kibiashara kwa kuwafundisha baadhi ya wakulima wengine mbinu na maarifa ya kilimo hiki.CUT- Sauti ya Felista  Nyakio Mutungi“Sasa si tu kwamba nalima, bali pia nawafundisha wakulima wengine kuongeza thamani katika mazao yao. Wanapata ujuzi wa kufanya biashara kupitia kilimo. Na kwa kweli tunawashukuru wahisani na UNICEF kwa kutuwezesha. Bila mpango huu, nisingekuwa hapa nilipo leo.”Kwa upande wake mtaalamu wa ubunifu wa UNICEF nchini Kenya Lilian Njoro, anaeleza kwa nini mradi huo ni muhimu kwa vijana.CUT- Sauti ya Lilian Njoro."Ni asilimia 10 pekee ya vijana wanaojihusisha na sekta ya kilimo. Kwa hivyo, kupitia mradi wa EKYAN, tulitaka kuona jinsi ya kuwahusisha vijana wengi zaidi katika kilimo na kuwavutia ili waweze kuanza kupata maisha yenye utulivu na ajira bora kupitia sekta hii.”Njoro anasisitiza kuwa teknolojia mpya zinafungua njia kwa kilimo cha kisasa tofauti na enzi za wazazi na mababu zao.Namna kilimo kinavyofanyika nyakati hizi ni tofauti na zamani,hii ni kwa sababu ya uwepo wa teknolojia bunifu, majukwaa ya kidijitali, na fursa nyingi.Kwa sasa, mradi wa EKYAN umeendelea kuwajengea vijana ujuzi, kuwapatia nafasi ya ajira, na kubadilisha mtazamo wao kuhusu kilimo, kutoka shughuli ya kizamani hadi kuwa biashara yenye faida.Link: https://youtu.be/hv17nk-2l5kTAGS:UNICEF Kenya/Kilimo/Biashara na ujasiriamali

Le deuxième Sommet africain sur le climat s'ouvre lundi 8 septembre à Addis-Abeba, où 45 chefs d'État et 25 000 délégués sont attendus pour cet évènement porté par les Nations Unies, l'Union africaine et l'Éthiopie. Celle-ci vient d'ailleurs de présenter sa candidature pour organiser le COP en 2027. L'un des objectifs du sommet de deux jours est de présenter les solutions concrètes en faveur du climat pour le continent africain, d'unifier aussi la voix des États en vue de la COP qui se tiendra en novembre au Brésil. La sénégalaise Aïssatou Diouf Notre invitée est une militante et une référence en Afrique pour les questions environnementales et responsable des politiques internationales et du plaidoyer au sein de l'ONG ENDA Énergie. Elle répond à Guillaume Thibault. RFI : Aïssatou Diouf, pourquoi ce 2ᵉ sommet africain est capital ? L'enjeu pour le continent, c'est à la fois de prendre le train en marche, mais surtout de parler d'une seule voix ? La Semaine africaine du climat est une plateforme stratégique pour l'Afrique, car elle permet aux pays, à la société civile et même au secteur privé de parler d'une seule voix, de défendre nos priorités face aux négociations mondiales. C'est donc le moment de démontrer que le climat peut être un levier de développement et d'emploi pour le continent. Donc, ce sommet va aligner les efforts des pays africains et surtout catalyser des actions concrètes, notamment sur les enjeux que j'ai cités précédemment. Quel message vous tirez du premier sommet qui s'est tenu il y a deux ans au Kenya, à Nairobi ? Les financements promis lors de ce sommet tardent à arriver et surtout, la mise en œuvre sur le terrain est encore très insuffisante. C'est pourquoi, à mon avis, cette édition doit aller beaucoup plus loin pour que les populations africaines voient réellement les bénéfices et les intérêts de ces sommets. Vous attendez beaucoup des discussions sur les questions de transition énergétique. Pour quelle raison est-ce essentiel ? Vous savez, la transition énergétique est un enjeu vital. Nous avons encore plus de 600 millions de personnes sans accès à l'électricité. Donc le défi, il est double. Premièrement, c'est répondre à cette urgence sociale tout en réduisant notre dépendance aux énergies fossiles. Mais également, on sait tous que l'Afrique doit l'aborder aussi comme une opportunité de développement en misant sur ses immenses ressources en solaire, en éolien, en hydraulique. Rappeler également que cette transition doit être juste. Le mot juste a tout son intérêt. Ça doit guider ce processus, cette transition-là. Donc, elle ne peut pas reposer uniquement sur nos budgets nationaux qui sont déjà très contraints. Donc, cela appelle à une solidarité internationale entre les pays du Nord et les pays du Sud. L'argent reste le nerf de la guerre. Dans un récent rapport, les Nations unies indiquent que 2 000 milliards de dollars ont été investis juste l'année dernière, en 2024, dans les énergies propres, mais que le continent africain n'a quasiment rien touché. Pourquoi l'Afrique reste à la marge. Donc, ce qu'il faut aujourd'hui, c'est à l'échelle internationale, réfléchir sur les mécanismes qui sont adaptés aux réalités du continent, amener aujourd'hui les banques de développement à avoir des mécanismes appropriés pour financer cette transition énergétique, le développement des énergies renouvelables et qu'enfin les pays développés respectent leurs engagements financiers.

Maintenant, on sait comment le système onusien est organisé et structuré. Il est très difficile aujourd'hui de sanctionner ces États-là. Par contre, aujourd'hui, on sait que les citoyens constituent une force incontournable qui demande de la redevabilité à leurs Etats. Je pense qu'on peut s'appuyer sur ces citoyens là pour demander aux Etats de rendre compte, mais surtout aux Etats, de respecter leurs engagements. Est-ce qu'aujourd'hui, on pourrait imaginer ou c'est une utopie ? Les Etats Unis d'Afrique du climat ? Pourquoi est-ce que les Etats ont tant de difficultés à s'accorder, à avoir un vrai impact sur des discussions ou sur des négociations, notamment lors des COP ? Je pense qu'on va tendre vers cela. On n'a pas le choix. Si aujourd'hui l'Afrique veut impacter au niveau des discussions à l'échelle internationale, on doit parler d'une seule et même voix. On doit avoir des positions coordonnées portées par nos leaders politiques. Pourquoi est-il difficile d'avoir ce travail de coordination ? On n'a pas tous le même niveau de développement. Ce sont des aspects également géopolitiques où chaque Etat essaie de se positionner. Un pays, par exemple, qui découvre le pétrole et le gaz, va vouloir forcément l'exploiter, alors que les impacts du réchauffement climatique sont là. Il faudrait qu'à l'échelle de l'Union africaine, que nous arrivions à avoir des politiques au niveau continental très coordonnées, qui puissent impacter durablement nos communautés, mais également qu'au niveau international, dans les débats et dans les discussions, que nous puissions peser. Est-ce que la COP 30 qui va se tenir au mois de novembre au Brésil, Je pense qu'il y a beaucoup de pays africains qui sont sortis très déçus de la COP de l'année dernière à Bakou. Cette COP qui se tient en terre brésilienne, plus précisément en terre amazonienne, c'est une symbolique fort pour les pays en développement, notamment la question des forêts, la question de la taxe carbone et j'espère que les conclusions qui seront issues de la Semaine africaine du climat vont être portées par nos décideurs politiques pour pouvoir impacter les conclusions de la COP de Belem.

The Kenyan government is under mounting pressure from the United States over its close ties with China. Influential lawmakers in Washington are furious over comments made by President William Ruto during a visit to Beijing earlier this year, where he said Kenya and China will be the "architects of a new world order." The remark was particularly upsetting for some in Washington, given Kenya's role as a Major Non-NATO Ally. Aggrey Mutambo, Africa editor at the Nation newspaper, joins Eric & Cobus from Nairobi to discuss how the Kenyan government is responding and what it's doing to maintain stable ties with both major powers.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Thursday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Make America Safe Again violent crime in American cities, with Clay spotlighting disturbing incidents in Cincinnati and Memphis. He shares the story of Holly, a mother who was brutally attacked, and critiques the justice system’s failure to keep repeat offenders off the streets. Ohio Senator Bernie Moreno invited Holly to speak out about the crime. Clay praises Judge Jeanine Pirro and President Donald Trump for taking strong stances on law and order, including Trump’s proposal to federalize the D.C. police force and demand a new U.S. census to correct errors from 2020 and prepare for 2030. The show also explores the political debate over crime statistics, contrasting claims of declining crime rates with real-life safety concerns. Clay argues for empowering police, holding judges accountable, and ensuring cities like Washington D.C. and Memphis become safe again for families. American Dads are Failing A deep dive into the rising violent crime in Washington, D.C., spotlighting President Donald Trump's efforts to restore law and order in the capital. Drawing on historical symbolism, Clay reflects on the importance of capital cities, referencing Abraham Lincoln’s commitment to completing the Capitol dome during the Civil War and the newly announced reconciliation monument at Arlington Cemetery. The episode features a striking comparison of homicide rates in global capital cities, revealing Washington, D.C.’s alarming rate of 41 per 100,000—far higher than cities like Lima, Nairobi, and Mexico City. Clay argues that a safe and vibrant capital is essential to American exceptionalism and global leadership. The crisis of fatherlessness in America. Clay explores how the absence of fathers in households correlates with youth violence, poverty, and societal breakdown. He responds to listener feedback, emphasizing that while individual cases vary, the data overwhelmingly shows that intact families—especially with present fathers—lead to better outcomes. The discussion includes racial disparities, with Clay citing historical data showing stronger black family units prior to the Great Society programs and questioning the long-term impact of government dependency. Talking Left and Living Right The decline of fatherhood in American homes. Clay and listeners explore how absent fathers—across racial and socioeconomic lines—correlate with rising violent crime, poverty, and social instability. The discussion includes listener emails and calls, including one from Ralph in Cincinnati, who shares his personal struggle for equal custody and critiques the family court system’s bias toward mothers. Clay argues for 50/50 parenting time and criticizes the financial incentives that perpetuate divorce litigation. Clay promotes YouTube bonus content book reviews, including The Fate of the Day, a volume in the American Revolution trilogy, and thrillers by Mick Herron, Sue Grafton, and Robert Parker. Clay emphasizes the importance of reading and historical literacy for conservative audiences. SC Sen. Tim Scott on Faith South Carolina Senator Tim Scott, author of One Nation Always Under God: Profiles in Christian Courage, and dives deep into the crisis of fatherlessness in America, the role of faith in family life, and the impact of government policy on household dynamics. Senator Scott joins the program to discuss his book and personal journey growing up in a single-parent household. He highlights the importance of faith, family, and male role models in shaping strong communities. Scott shares statistics on fatherless homes—over 70% among African-American boys and 40% among white working-class families—and calls for a cultural and spiritual revival to restore family values. The hour also touches on President Trump’s call for a new census, which could shift congressional representation and electoral college influence toward red states. Clay explains how a corrected census could add seats in Florida and Texas while reducing representation in California and New York. In a lighter moment, Clay and Senator Scott discuss college football rivalries, with Scott predicting a strong season for the South Carolina Gamecocks. The conversation showcases Scott’s loyalty and enthusiasm for sports, adding a relatable and entertaining dimension to the hour.
