In the book of Nehemiah, we see how God turns burden into vision and vision into action, leading His people from ruin to renewal. The book of Nehemiah isn't just about rebuilding walls; it's about restoring hearts as we step out with faith and courage to join God's redemptive work. Together, we'll see how rebuilding is never a solo mission, but a call to pray, work, and stand alongside one another in obedience. "Building Together in the Face of Opposition," Nehemiah; Neh. 4:6-14, Jake Portillo.

What do we do when we need to 'do the right thing'? How do we equip ourselves? Helen reminds us from Nehemiah (and Star Wars!!) that when we do the right thing, good will win, God wil win. It may not be easy, but it will be worth it. Lesley and Angie give us their take on the message.

Senior officials from Japan's ruling and opposition parties discussed whether the country should introduce a selective dual surname system for married couples, in a television program on Sunday, a week ahead of a key parliamentary election.

Turkey's main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) is warning that the future of democracy in the country is at stake, as a legal crackdown against it intensifies. This month has seen three more city mayors arrested in anti-corruption probes, while half of CHP parliamentary deputies are facing having their legal immunity lifted. Thousands marched through the streets of the Mediterranean city of Adana in protest at the arrest of its mayor on alleged corruption charges. The mayors of Antalya and Adiyaman have also been detained on similar charges. More than a dozen mayors of Turkey's main opposition CHP have now been jailed. The legal crackdown began in March with the jailing of Istanbul's mayor, Ekrem Imamoglu, and on Wednesday, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan vowed there would be no letting up. "We launched an investigation into the largest theft ring in the history of the Republic, the most reckless organised crime organisation ever," Erdogan told his parliamentary deputies. "Those who took bribes, those who practically held cities under extortion, those who put people in a difficult situation and then robbed them were all CHP people," he continued. A battle for survival  Erdogan further ratcheted up the pressure on the CHP with a presidential motion calling for the lifting of parliamentary immunity from 61 out of CHP's 121 deputies. CHP leader Ozgur Ozel is also under investigation for allegedly inciting public hatred and insulting the president. Ozel is at the forefront of leading anti-government protests across the country, which continue to attract large crowds as the party builds a significant lead in opinion polls over Erdogan's Justice and Development Party (AKP). The CHP claims their growing success is what is motivating the recent prosecutions, rather than corruption. "These are politically driven arrests and investigations," declared party spokesman Ilhan Uzgel. "Not a single government party mayor is even investigated." Uzgel admits that with more than 500 of its officials having been arrested, the party is facing a battle for survival. "The government has all the instruments of the state. They control the judiciary, they control the police force etc etc. So it's very difficult to stop it." Despite mounting pressure, however, Uzgel insists they will not back down. "We are organising rallies twice a week, our leader is very energetic. He [Ozel]... said we are not going to back down. The government, they don't want the opposition party to challenge Erdogan's authority. This is the core of the issue right now." Turkey walks a fine line as conflict between Israel and Iran cools Broadcasting bans However, the political noose around the neck of the CHP continues to tighten. This week, the opposition Sozcu TV station was banned for 10 days by regulatory authorities for "inciting public hatred" after broadcasting protests against the jailing of the Istanbul mayor, Ekrem Imamoglu. Another opposition TV station, Halk, is facing a similar ban. The two are among the few media outlets that continue to report on the ongoing CHP protests against the waves of arrests. The broadcast bans are being seen as a sign that the days of critical media could be numbered. "I believe by the end of this year we might be hearing of the start of the liquidation of critical TV channels," claims Erol Onderoglu, Istanbul representative of the Paris-based NGO Reporters Without Borders. Fears are growing too that the threat against independent media is part of a much more worrying process of the dismantling of the pillars of democracy. Turkey steps into EU defence plans as bloc eyes independence from US Opinion polls However, the government appears to be losing the battle for people's minds, with several opinion polls reporting that more than 60 percent of people polled believe the legal crackdown on CHP is politically motivated. Anger against the government also continues to grow over 40 percent inflation. Sezin Oney, an analyst for the independent Poltiyol news outlet, fears a political showdown is looming. "Turkish democracy is on its deathbed, actually. Erdogan envisions a political stage where we don't have a really challenging opposition. [Arrests] will escalate and escalate. They will go as far as they can until they reach their target." While Erdogan remains in a strong position, the opposition is still a threat to the president. "He does have most of the cards," said Oney, "but he doesn't have the support of the public in general. So, at the end of the day, at one point it will be the people versus Erdogan." "What matters is where the security forces stand," he added, "When it comes to a point when the people take to the streets en masse, will the security bureaucracy go against their own people?" Neither the CHP nor Erdogan are showing any signs of capitulating, with protests expected to continue and likely to intensify in September, coinciding with the reopening of universities and the return of people from summer holidays. Court cases against the CHP are also scheduled to resume then. With both sides insisting they are fighting for the future of their country, it could well be a fight that leaves only one side standing.

In Berlin wurde in dieser Woche über viel Geld diskutiert. Bundesfinanzminister Lars Klingbeil (SPD) will in diesem Jahr Kredite in Höhe von 81,8 Milliarden Euro aufnehmen, knapp 90 Milliarden sollen in 2026 folgen - und das bei Ausgaben von 503 Milliarden Euro noch in diesem Jahr. Das begründet Klingbeil damit, dass das Land über Jahrzehnte "kaputtgespart" worden sei und deshalb "Rekordinvestitionen" in Infrastruktur und Industrie nötig seien - von der Bundeswehr ganz zu schweigen. Von der Opposition hagelt es Kritik. - Sparen oder investieren - das ist die Kernfrage. Bestseller-Autor und Philosoph Christoph Quarch hat sich darüber Gedanken gemacht.

The 6/22/25 message by Michael Gowens is based on Romans 8:28-32 and is #5 in the "On the Road to Assurance" series from this glorious chapter. "God is for us" is Paul's inspired declaration, and because He is for us, none may successfully oppose. How may the believer know that God is on his/her side? Both the everlasting covenant (vs 28-30) and the gift of His own Son at the cross (v. 32) affirm the fact.

In this episode, we dive into Chapter seven of Joseph Smith: The Rise and Fall of an American Prophet by John G. Turner. We explore early public criticism of Joseph Smith by figures like Abner Cole, the satirical Book of Pukei, and Luman Walters' possible influence. We also examine Joseph's efforts to sell the copyright of the Book of Mormon in Canada, what that reveals about his intentions, and the revelation that supposedly authorized it.We discuss how Joseph's financial motives, revelations, and treatment of Martin Harris raise important questions, and consider the book's early lack of demand—even as Joseph continued to pivot and adapt. From legal troubles and claims of treasure seeking, to his revisions of the Bible and the rise of anti-Masonry, this episode looks at how Joseph's evolving theology and personal ambitions shaped early Mormonism.We also tackle difficult questions around gender and divine authority: Why were no women, including Emma Smith, called as witnesses to the golden plates? What does Emma's role—and her sacrifices—say about the story Joseph told?This is a wide-ranging and thought-provoking installment that challenges the traditional narrative while offering rich historical context.**Topics Include:**- Abner Cole's criticisms & Book of Pukei- Attempt to sell the Book of Mormon copyright in Canada- Revelations and motives: divine or self-serving?- Joseph's treatment of Emma & women's roles- Legal issues & treasure seeking- Bible revisions, anti-Masonry, and theology- Emma's loyalty and legacy___________________YouTubeMormon Stories Thanks Our Generous Donors!Help us continue to deliver quality content by becoming a donor today:One-time or recurring donation through DonorboxSupport us on PatreonPayPalVenmoOur Platforms:YouTubePatreonSpotifyApple PodcastsContact us:MormonStories@gmail.comPO Box 171085, Salt Lake City, UT 84117Social Media:Insta: @mormstoriesTikTok: @mormonstoriespodcastJoin the Discord

Der 76-jährige PKK-Gründer Abdullah Öcalan hat sich diese Woche erstmals seit seiner Festnahme 1999 in einer Videobotschaft aus dem Hochsicherheitsgefängnis Imrali an die Öffentlichkeit gewandt. In dem siebenminütigen Clip ruft er die verbotene Arbeiterpartei Kurdistans auf, den bewaffneten Kampf einzustellen und auf »demokratische Politik« zu setzen. Der jahrzehntelange Befreiungskampf sei beendet, weil die Existenz der Kurden mittlerweile anerkannt werde, erklärte Öcalan. Die PKK wird von Ankara, der EU und den USA als Terrororganisation eingestuft. 1984 griff die Gruppe zu den Waffen, seitdem sind in dem Konflikt mindestens 40.000 Menschen ums Leben gekommen. Präsident Recep Tayyip Erdoğan begrüßte Öcalans Erklärung als »Meilenstein«, sprach jedoch auch von einem langen Prozess. Schon am heutigen Freitag wollen erste PKK-Einheiten im Nordirak symbolisch ihre Waffen niederlegen. In der aktuellen Folge des SPIEGEL-Podcasts »Acht Milliarden« spricht Host Juan Moreno mit Maximilian Popp, stellvertretender Ressortleiter Ausland beim SPIEGEL. Popp glaubt, dass es nun vor allem auf den türkischen Präsidenten Erdoğan ankommt: »Es wäre jetzt an der Zeit, dass die türkische Regierung wirklich versucht, die Situation der Kurden und Kurdinnen zu verbessern. Es wird entscheidend sein, wie Erdoğan sich verhält. Leider ist er nicht dafür bekannt, sich für Teilhabe und Minderheitenrechte einzusetzen.« Mehr zum Thema: (S+) Nach der Selbstauflösung der PKK könnte Präsident Erdoğan die Spaltung der türkischen Opposition vorantreiben. Seine politische Zukunft hängt von den Stimmen der Kurden ab. Ihnen muss er nun allerdings etwas bieten – von Şebnem Arsu und Anna-Sophie Schneider: https://www.spiegel.de/ausland/tuerkei-die-selbstaufloesung-der-pkk-ist-ein-erfolg-fuer-recep-tayyip-erdogan-aber-mit-risiken-a-7cf86c23-d0c9-47bd-80e9-db27881190a8 (S+) Für den türkischen Präsidenten ist der Aufruf von PKK-Chef Öcalan ein Triumph. Doch ob der Konflikt mit den Kurden wirklich endet, hängt von Erdoğans nächsten Schritten ab – von Maximilian Popp: https://www.spiegel.de/ausland/pkk-chef-abdullah-oecalan-kommt-es-jetzt-zum-frieden-zwischen-der-tuerkei-und-den-kurden-a-90b670c8-fbf9-4ba5-aa26-244dbaa51b6c+++ Alle Infos zu unseren Werbepartnern finden Sie hier.

Kanzler Merz spricht von einem wirtschaftspolitischen Kurswechsel – die Kritik reicht von „Wahlbetrug“ bis „Politik für Reiche“. Der Streit um Schulden, Investitionen und soziale Gerechtigkeit dürfte noch lange andauern.

Herzlich willkommen zu Ihrem morgendlichen Newsletter! Wir starten mit der Haushaltsdebatte im Bundestag.

Send us a textActs 17:1-9Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews. And Paul went in, as was his custom, and on three Sabbath days he reasoned with them from the Scriptures, explaining and proving that it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead, and saying, “This Jesus, whom I proclaim to you, is the Christ.” And some of them were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas, as did a great many of the devout Greeks and not a few of the leading women. But the Jews were jealous, and taking some wicked men of the rabble, they formed a mob, set the city in an uproar, and attacked the house of Jason, seeking to bring them out to the crowd. And when they could not find them, they dragged Jason and some of the brothers before the city authorities, shouting, “These men who have turned the world upside down have come here also, and Jason has received them, and they are all acting against the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus.” And the people and the city authorities were disturbed when they heard these things. And when they had taken money as security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.Support the show

Das Gentech-Moratorium in der Schweiz ist vom Parlament im Juni verlängert worden bis 2030. Das Parlament hat es vorher jedoch aufgeweicht. Für bestimmte Gen-Technologien, die neue Züchtungen ermöglichen, soll das Verbot nicht gelten. Im Bio-Sektor gehen die Meinungen darüber auseinander. Weitere Themen: Sie bezahlen keine Steuern, ignorieren staatliche Vorschriften oder bedrohen gar Behördenmitglieder: sogenannte Staatsverweigerer. Neu wird die Szene, in Zusammenarbeit mit der Zürcher Kantonspolizei, vom Nachrichtendienst des Bundes überwacht. Was war ausschlaggebend dafür? Vor 65 Tagen wurde Friedrich Merz als deutscher Bundeskanzler vereidigt. In der so genannten Generaldebatte im Bundestag musste er nun erstmals vor der Opposition seine Arbeit verteidigen. Der verbale Schlagabtausch zeigte gut, wo die Regierung aus CDU, CSU und SPD derzeit steht.

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might (Ephesians 6:10). Thank you, Jesus!

In this episode of Sermon Notes, host Jay Strother and guest Brian Ball dive into Acts 5:33-39, focusing on the wisdom of Gamaliel in the face of fierce opposition to the early church. Together, they unpack lessons on trusting God's sovereignty when facing resistance, exploring how faithfulness, courage, and perseverance grow in challenging seasons.

Whether you're wrestling with setbacks or seeking encouragement in your faith, this conversation offers practical takeaways on cultivating a Christlike response to opposition and faithfully living out the gospel within today's church.

Der Bundestag berät heute den Haushalt für 2025. Am Streit über die Finanzen für vergangenes Jahr zerbrach die Ampelkoalition. Seit Januar gilt deswegen eine sogenannte vorläufige Haushaltsführung. Über Milliarden-Investiotionen und Schulden der neuen schwarz-roten Bundesregierung dürfte es eine kontroverse Debatte geben. Wie viel Geld ausgegeben werden soll, wofür es eingeplant ist und was die Opposition davon hält, erklären wir im BR24 Thema des Tages. Beiträge von Martin Polansky, Oliver Neuroth und Hans-Joachim Vieweger. Moderation: Stephanie Mannhardt

Acts 6 In those days when the number of disciples was increasing, the Hellenistic Jews among them complained against the Hebraic Jews because their widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food.  When growth brings pressure, don't lose sight of God's priorities. 2 So the Twelve gathered all the disciples together and said, “It would not be right for us to neglect the ministry of the word of God in order to wait on tables.    3 Brothers and sisters, choose seven men from among you who are known to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will turn this responsibility over to them 4 and will give our attention to prayer and the ministry of the word.”   5 This proposal pleased the whole group. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit; also Philip, Procorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas from Antioch, a convert to Judaism.    6 They presented these men to the apostles, who prayed and laid their hands on them.   7 So the word of God spread. The number of disciples in Jerusalem increased rapidly, and a large number of priests became obedient to the faith. 8 Now Stephen, a man full of God's grace and power, performed great wonders and signs among the people.    9 Opposition arose, however, from members of the Synagogue of the Freedmen (as it was called)—Jews of Cyrene and Alexandria as well as the provinces of Cilicia and Asia—who began to argue with Stephen.  When resistance brings pressure, don't shrink back from God's purpose. 10 But they could not stand up against the wisdom the Spirit gave him as he spoke.   11 Then they secretly persuaded some men to say, “We have heard Stephen speak blasphemous words against Moses and against God.”   12 So they stirred up the people and the elders and the teachers of the law. They seized Stephen and brought him before the Sanhedrin.    13 They produced false witnesses, who testified, “This fellow never stops speaking against this holy place and against the law.    14 For we have heard him say that this Jesus of Nazareth will destroy this place and change the customs Moses handed down to us.”   15 All who were sitting in the Sanhedrin looked intently at Stephen, and they saw that his face was like the face of an angel. Acts 7:48-60 48 “However, the Most High does not live in houses made by human hands.    As the prophet says: 49 “‘Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What kind of house will you build for me? says the Lord. Or where will my resting place be? 50 Has not my hand made all these things?'   51 “You stiff-necked people! Your hearts and ears are still uncircumcised. You are just like your ancestors: You always resist the Holy Spirit!    52 Was there ever a prophet your ancestors did not persecute? They even killed those who predicted the coming of the Righteous One. And now you have betrayed and murdered him— 53 you who have received the law that was given through angels but have not obeyed it.” 54 When the members of the Sanhedrin heard this, they were furious and gnashed their teeth at him.    55 But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, looked up to heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God.    56 “Look,” he said, “I see heaven open and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.”   57 At this they covered their ears and, yelling at the top of their voices, they all rushed at him, 58 dragged him out of the city and began to stone him.    Meanwhile, the witnesses laid their coats at the feet of a young man named Saul. 59 While they were stoning him, Stephen prayed, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.”    60 Then he fell on his knees and cried out, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” When he had said this, he fell asleep. When death brings pressure, don't forget God's promise.   Romans 14:8 If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.   Don't let the pressure push you down, let it push you deeper.
