Ralph welcomes infectious disease expert Dr. Michael Osterholm to discuss his new book “The Big One: How We Must Prepare for Future Deadly Pandemics.” Then, Ralph shares some quick takes on current events.Dr. Michael Osterholm is a professor and director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota. In November 2020, Dr. Osterholm was appointed to President-elect Joe Biden's 13-member Transition COVID-19 Advisory Board. He is the author of Deadliest Enemy: Our War Against Killer Germs, and he has a weekly podcast called The Osterholm Update which offers discussion and analysis on the latest infectious disease developments. His latest book (co-authored with Mark Olshaker) is The Big One: How We Must Prepare for Future Deadly Pandemics.What we're concerned about now is we're primed for an influenza pandemic someday where a new influenza virus will emerge. And when it takes off, it'll rapidly spread through the people. And wherever it came from (whether a bird species or another animal) will not be that important because now it's transmitted among humans.Dr. Michael OsterholmI want to be really clear about one thing: There will be an influenza virus that will cause a pandemic in the future. And the pandemic clock is ticking, we just don't know what time it is.Dr. Michael OsterholmInstead of building from a base of modest preparedness from the prior administration (and I emphasize “modest”), they're going backwards. Also, with quackery positions on a whole variety of issues that is dividing the population, feeding the misinformation on the internet, and general chaos of information transmission.Ralph NaderI will just make one prediction here today: There is going to be a large, huge, overwhelming crisis that is going to occur eventually around an infectious disease issue in this country. And it's going to happen because Mother Nature herself does that to us—just like hurricanes are not optional, these large outbreaks are not optional. What's optional is how well we respond to them and limit their impact. And we are at a point right now where we have very, very limited impact on these things. So I think the public needs to be aware, we're in a very different setting today for public health response to a crisis than we've ever been in my 50 years in the business.Dr. Michael OsterholmNews 10/31/25* Our top stories this week concern U.S. saber rattling in Venezuela. First, a new piece in published Drop Site news, coauthored by Ryan Grim, Jack Poulson and Saagar Enjeti of Breaking Points, takes readers “Inside Marco Rubio's Push for Regime Change in Venezuela.” This piece deconstructs the Trump administration claims tying the Maduro government to fentanyl trafficking, quoting a senior U.S. official who unequivocally states that “U.S. intelligence has assessed that little to none of the fentanyl trafficked to the United States is being produced in Venezuela.” Another key point is that the Maduro government apparently offered to turn over oil resources to the United States in exchange for cessation of hostilities. Instead, in an echo of the Iraq War, Trump has apparently been, “swayed by arguments from Rubio that the best way to secure Venezuela's oil reserves was to facilitate regime change in Venezuela and make a better deal with a new government.” As with Iraq, regime change in Venezuela is likely to end up with a chaotic power vacuum in the country, destabilizing Latin America in turn. One would have hoped the U.S. had learned its lesson. Apparently not.* The administration does however seem to favor covert schemes to oust Maduro as opposed to an outright U.S. invasion. Back in 2020, the Trump administration backed Operation Gideon, which utilized American mercenaries and Venezuelan dissidents to try to capture Maduro. This week, Venezuela claims to have foiled another such attempt. Democracy Now! reports “Venezuelan officials say they've captured a group of mercenaries tied to the [CIA]. In a statement, the government of Venezuela said, ‘This is a colonial operation of military aggression that seeks to turn the Caribbean into a space for lethal violence and US imperial domination.'” This report goes on to state, “Earlier this month, President Trump acknowledged that he authorized the CIA to secretly conduct operations in Venezuela.” Meanwhile AP reports that over the past 16 months, a now-retired federal agent named Edwin Lopez sought to turn Maduro's personal pilot – Venezuelan General Bitner Villegas – and have the aviator deliver Maduro into U.S. custody. In exchange, Lopez promised to make the pilot a “very rich man.” This plot, hatched under President Biden and continuing under Trump, ultimately failed. Yet, as these half-baked covert ops go up in flames, it seems increasingly likely that the administration will resort to brute force. That same Democracy Now! piece reports that on Sunday, a U.S. warship arrived in Trinidad and Tobago. With no diplomatic solution on the horizon, it seems only a matter of time before the shelling begins.* As all of this unfolds, Congressional Republicans are shirking their oversight responsibilities. On October 23rd, Axios reported that Senate Foreign Relations Chairman Jim Risch of Idaho said the committee will not hold hearings regarding the lawless strikes on Venezuelan boats “at this time,” adding that he has been “briefed on it and feel[s] comfortable with where we are.” As if mocking the Legislative Branch, that same day Semafor reported a quote from “a person close to the White House” who said Trump won't coordinate with Congress until “Maduro's corpse is in US custody.”* Turning to the federal government, reclusive billionaire Timothy Mellon, heir to the Mellon fortune, has donated $130 million to the Pentagon to offset military staff salaries during the government shutdown. While $130 million is a drop in the bucket for the American Military-Industrial Complex – this donation will amount to about $50 per troop this pay cycle – it would appear to be blatantly illegal under the Antideficiency Act. The Hill explains that under this statute, “federal agencies are barred from ‘obligating or expending federal funds in advance or in excess of an appropriation, and from accepting voluntary services.'” In part, this statute was adopted to avoid just such a scenario – the president circumventing the Congressional Power of the Purse by soliciting outside donations. Unfortunately, Trump's subservient Congressional allies are unlikely to do anything about this outrageous usurpation of their power.* On the regulatory side, the Trump administration is putting its thumb on the scales in favor of David Ellison's bid to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery. A New York Post report quotes a senior administration official who says “Who owns Warner Bros. Discovery is very important to the administration…The Warner board needs to think very seriously not just on the price competition but which player in the suitor pool has been successful getting a deal done.” The Post adds that “rival bidders are likely to face stiff hurdles from US regulators.” Ellison, son of Trump billionaire ally Larry Ellison, has had his eye on Warner Bros. Discovery – which owns CNN – since his recent acquisition of Paramount and its subsidiary CBS News. Critics have long warned of the dangers of consolidation in the media sphere, particularly news, but this would truly be an unprecedented upset of the media landscape.* Turning to consumer news, a new article in the Lever focuses on the fast food chain Shake Shack. According to this piece, the chain, “recently updated its terms of use agreement to include a binding arbitration agreement and class-action waiver denying customers their legal right to take companies to court.” Now, corporations sneaking binding arbitration agreements into their terms of service is not a new phenomenon, but this method is novel. This article explains that Shake Shack, and other fast food chains, are “extending restrictive contracts to consumers through the rapid expansion of online services such as websites, mobile apps, and automated self-service kiosks.” In other words, these automated services are becoming a ‘triple-threat' for these companies to exploit, simultaneously cutting labor costs, harvesting consumer data, and now forcing customers into these restrictive legal agreements. When will regulators take action to protect consumers from such rampant abuse?* One bright spot, so to speak, for consumer protection is emerging in the United Kingdom. The BBC reports the British Department for Transport will begin a review of the increasingly bright, bordering on blinding, LED headlights that have become commonplace in automobiles. The new guidelines are to be unveiled in the forthcoming Road Safety Strategy document being prepared by the government. Many drivers in the United States have complained about this issue as well – noting how dangerous it is for drivers to be blinded by oncoming headlights while on the road – and certain states like Hawaii and Massachusetts have taken action, though there has yet to be a federal response.* In more positive news from abroad, the Economic Times reports China has enacted an anti-misinformation law dictating that, “if you are an influencer and… want to discuss ‘serious' topics - such as finance, health, medicine, law or education - you must provide proof of relevant professional credentials.” This law will also ban “advertising for medical products and services,” which also covers supplements and health foods. Other reports indicate that the fines for violating this law could be as high as ¥100,000. The proliferation of medical misinformation has become a major issue for governments the world over and in the U.S. has incubated a vast underworld of medical conspiracy theories and dubious health products. It is heartening to see something being done to protect consumers' health and safety.* Speaking of someone doing something, Democratic congressional candidate Kat Abughazaleh made headlines a month ago for blocking vehicles outside of an ICE facility in Broadview, Illinois, where she is running for office. Now, NBC reports she has been indicted by a special federal grand jury, “alongside five other people, including two other political candidates.” Abughazaleh responded to the indictment, writing “This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I'm not backing down, and we're going to win.” Her lawyer, Josh Herman, added, “This is a political prosecution that tries to turn dissent and First Amendment opposition to the Trump administration's cruel policies into a conspiracy…Kat has steadfastly opposed those policies and she will fight these charges with the same principled determination.” The defendants have not been arrested but will surrender to the court next week.* Finally, Palestine Legal has scored a major victory. The group reports that “The First Circuit…[has] ruled that pro-Palestinian slogans, encampments and criticism of Zionism is protected by the First Amendment -- tossing out a Zionist complaint targeting pro-Palestinian organizing at @MIT.” Furthermore, the court found that “Slogans such as From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free, intifada revolution, and calling Israel's actions a genocide -- and more -- do not target Jewish or Israeli students on the basis of their identity… but target Israel over its treatment of Palestinians.” This is a win for the David side of the David and Goliath struggle between pro-Palestine student groups and the universities where they are organizing – which are themselves under immense pressure from the Trump administration to stifle pro-Palestinian speech. Hopefully, this gives organizers the necessary breathing room they need to regroup as the Trump-brokered ceasefire grows ever shakier.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

On today's program, an Ohio ministry dedicated to addiction recovery is being used for alleged misuse of funds. The Ohio Attorney General says Lamb's House hasn't served any charitable purpose since at least 2017. We'll have details. Plus, with a growing number of children being diagnosed with autism, churches are developing strategies to make their families more comfortable—and their spaces more accommodating. We'll take a look. And, when donors give their money to special programs, they usually expect all their money to be used accordingly. But how much is actually used for overhead costs? But first, Samaritan's Purse is set to play a larger role in Gaza aid distribution as the embattled Gaza Humanitarian Foundation is being phased out. The Rev. Franklin Graham confirmed Oct. 25 that Samaritan's Purse, the international humanitarian relief organization he heads, is ramping up its role in delivering aid to Gaza. The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. We get database and other technical support from Stephen DuBarry, Rod Pitzer, and Casey Sudduth. Writers who contributed to today's program include Yonat Shimron, Isaac Wood, Stacey Horton, Tony Mator, Kim Roberts, Jessica Eturralde, Makella Knowles, and Christina Darnell.

It's Thursday, October 30th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Muslim Ugandan beat wife and kids for trusting Christ A Muslim man in Uganda beat his wife and two children last month for putting their faith in Christ. Kulusumu Namulondo had to be hospitalized along with her two children, ages twelve and nine. Her husband proceeded to demolish the building of the church she had visited. Namulondo described the attack to Morning Star News. She said, “My husband hit my son with the walking stick several times, and he soon fell down screaming and wailing in great pain . . . While my son was on the ground, my husband started beating up me and my daughter. Thank God, neighbors arrived, and my husband fled away.” In Luke 18:29-30, Jesus said, “Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or parents or brothers or wife or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God, who shall not receive many times more in this present time, and in the age to come eternal life.” Help victims of Hurricane Melissa  in Jamaica and Cuba Hurricane Melissa struck Jamaica on Tuesday as a Category 5 storm. Melissa weakened to Category 3 before making landfall in Cuba yesterday.  The hurricane is one of the strongest ones on record in the Atlantic, killing dozens of people across the Caribbean. Christian charity organizations are mobilizing aid for victims of the hurricane. Samaritan's Purse announced it is “already preparing to respond as needed — with disaster relief specialists, materials, and aircraft all on standby.” You can give towards their relief effort through a link in our transcript today at TheWorldview.com.  Trump, Cruz and Johnson urge centrist Democrats to re-open gov't The Democrats in the U.S. Senate have now shut the U.S. government for 30 days, as they attempt to undo the provisions of President Trump's Big Beautiful Bill which ensured that only U.S. citizens would get taxpayer-funded health care. President Trump didn't pull any punches. TRUMP: “Today, I'm calling on every Senate Democrat to stop the madness, to let our country get back.   In the greatest moment in the history of our country, in terms of wealth, in terms of job creation, and in terms of investment coming in, these guys go on strike. It's really a shame! “So, I'm asking them to be smart. It's not working. They're getting killed in the polls. The public understands what they're doing. They're doing the wrong thing.” Republican Senator Ted Cruz of Texas explained that the Democrats have failed to stop the government shutdown. CRUZ: “Thirteen times now the Republicans have voted to open the government to pay the federal workers 13 times. The Democrats' party line have voted no, keep it shut down. Keep it shut down. Keep it shut down. “And at this point it's not even clear they have an exit ramp. I think they're going to continue this another week or two, and then at some point, seven or eight Democrats are going to have some sense come into them. I think it is very likely to be retiring Democrats who will never again face a primary election. So, they're more insulated from the crazy left wing base. “But we are watching performative art. We're not watching public policy. We're not watching elected officials. This is all about political saving Chuck Schumer's rear end.” And House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Republican from Louisiana, described Senator Chuck Schumer as irredeemable. JOHNSON: “We have very important work to do here, and that's why we're pleading with them. Look, I think Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries are irredeemable at this point. I don't think they'll be able to tell [New York City Mayoral candidate Zohran] Mondami, [a socialist], in New York and his disciples that they voted to open the government. “I've given up on the leadership. So, we're trying to appeal to a handful of moderates or centrists who care more about the American people and will put the people's interest over their own and do the right thing in the Senate.  There's no point in me sitting down with Chuck Schumer. He's painted himself into a corner.” The Congressional Budget office said that the economy could lose $14 billion over two months unless the government is reopened. If you have a Democrat U.S. Senator, call 202-224-3121 and urge him or her to re-open the government immediately. Half of U.S. states scored poorly on religious liberty The Napa Legal Institute released its 2025 Faith and Freedom Index on Monday. The report ranks states in the U.S. from 0-100 based on how well they treat faith-based nonprofits.  The states with the highest rankings on the index are Alabama (72%), Kansas (69%), Indiana (68%), Texas (65%), and Mississippi (63%). The states with the lowest rankings are Michigan (31%), Washington (35%), Massachusetts (37%), Maryland (38%), and Illinois (38%).  Sadly, over half of the states scored below 50% on the religious liberty index.  Nvidia now valued at $5 trillion Nvidia became the first company yesterday to reach a market value of $5 trillion. The tech company started with video game processors. Now it is a major producer of computer chips for the artificial intelligence industry.  The record valuation follows growth announcements from the company, including plans to build seven supercomputers for the U.S. government.  Apple and Microsoft, two other tech companies, are not far behind with market valuations of around $4 trillion.  America's debt has surpassed $38 trillion The U.S. government's gross national debt surpassed $38 trillion last Wednesday. That's up a trillion dollars from just August of this year.  The U.S. government debt as a percentage of gross domestic product stood at 120% last year, according to the International Monetary Fund. That's one of the highest debt-to-GDP ratios in the world. Only Japan, Venezuela, Greece, and Italy are higher.     (Look at the U.S. Debt clock.) Federal Reserve cut interest rate by quarter percent The Federal Reserve cut its benchmark interest rate by a quarter-point for the second time this year. This brings the rate to a range between 3.75% and 4%. That's the lowest it's been in three years.  The Fed's announcement noted, “Available indicators suggest that economic activity has been expanding at a moderate pace. Job gains have slowed this year, and the unemployment rate has edged up but remained low. …Inflation has moved up since earlier in the year and remains somewhat elevated.” Museum of the Bible displaying oldest copies of Jonah and 1 Peter And finally, CBN News reports the Museum of the Bible is displaying the oldest-known complete copies of Jonah and 1 Peter.  The pages come from the Crosby–Schøyen Codex which dates back 1,800 years. The text is written in the ancient Coptic language.  It's the first time the pages from the codex have been available to the public since 1988.  Dr. Bobby Duke is the Chief Curatorial Officer at the Museum of the Bible. Listen to comments he made to CBN News.  DUKE: “This dates back to about 250 A.D. That's incredible to think that we have something that's 1,800 years old. A community said, ‘Let's put these items together so that if it were read it will inspire this generation of Christians that lived in that part of Egypt.” 1 Peter 1:24-25 says, “All flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of the grass.

Hurricane Melissa: Concrete Kingston Spared, St. Catherine's Suffers Utter Devastation Guest: Reverend Bill Develin Reverend Bill Develin reports from Kingston, Jamaica, describing Hurricane Melissa as an "unbelievable storm" that surpasses others he has experienced. The Category 5 hurricane features incredible winds reaching 185 mph and torrential rainfall, creating a "toxic mix and meteorological disaster." Develin, located in Kingston on a hill in a concrete home, did not need to evacuate and notes that Kingston has "definitely been spared," though power has been out in his neighborhood for approximately 12 hours and half of New Kingston's business district remains in darkness. In stark contrast, St. Catherine's Parish, approximately 120 miles to the west, has experienced "utter and complete devastation." This underserved, rural, and impoverished area is largely constructed of wood structures with zinc metal roofs, making homes highly vulnerable to the storm, comparable to the poorest parts of New Orleans during previous hurricanes. St. Catherine's Parish was on a mandatory evacuation list of 25 areas; fortunately, though the state public hospital's roof was ripped off, all patients and staff had been evacuated the day before the storm. The government of Jamaica, including Prime Minister Andrew Holness and the Office of Disaster Preparedness, performed exceptionally, establishing 880 safe shelters across the island and maintaining overall preparedness. The Ministry of Transportation hopes the airport will reopen within 48 hours to allow relief flights carrying humanitarian aid from organizations like Samaritan's Purse, the International Red Cross, and the European Union Humanitarian Relief Effort. Despite these efforts, devastation across western Jamaica from May Pen to Montego Bay—where 25,000 tourists shelter—will require massive cleanup efforts lasting at least a year, constituting a "double whammy" for communities still recovering from Hurricane Barrel, which struck over a year prior with similar force. Hurricane Melissa is expected to travel north through Montego Bay, then turn obliquely eastward toward Cuba, barrel into western Haiti, pass near the Bahamas and Bermuda, and eventually dissipate into the Mid-Atlantic Ocean.

The arrests were made in the state of Uttar Pradesh under its anti-conversion law. This comes just days after India's top court criticized the state's use of the law to target Christians.  Such anti-conversions laws are used throughout India to persecute Christians. Believers face the harshest treatment in Uttar Pradesh.  India is ranked 11th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most difficult countries to be a Christian.  Trump oversaw Cambodia-Thailand Peace Deal U.S. President Donald Trump is visiting countries in Asia this week. On Sunday, he oversaw the signing of a peace agreement between Cambodia and Thailand. He also signed trade deals with both countries as well as Malaysia.  Listen to comments from President Trump on that Cambodia-Thailand peace deal.  TRUMP: “Today's signing represents just one of eight conflicts that we've ended in eight months of the Trump presidency. I'm very honored to have done it. We saved millions of lives. “I'm here in a mission of friendship and goodwill and to deepen our ties and commerce, to strengthen our common security, and to really promote strongly, stability, prosperity and peace for all of the countries in this room and long beyond this room.” Yesterday, President Trump visited Japan, signing a trade deal with their newly elected Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi. The president also plans on meeting Chinese President Xi Jinping in South Korea today.  Samaritan's Purse airlifted 100,000 pounds of food/supplies to Gaza Samaritan's Purse airlifted over 100,000 pounds of food and relief supplies for families in Gaza on Saturday.  This marks the 13th flight to the Middle East by the international Christian relief organization. The latest airlift includes 290,000 food packets, 12,000 blankets, and 12,000 solar lights.  Listen to comments from Franklin Graham, president and CEO of Samaritan's Purse.  GRAHAM: “This has been a terrible war that's taken place, but Samaritan's Purse is going and we're going to go in Jesus' name. We've been helping the people in Israel. We've been helping the people in Gaza, and we're going to continue to help.” Hebrews 13:16 says, “Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.” Yelp spanked for vilifying pro-life pregnancy centers In the United States, a federal appeals court ruled against Yelp, Inc. in a pro-life case. Yelp operates a platform that connects people with local businesses. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is suing the company for placing misleading information on listings for pro-life pregnancy centers.  In a press release, Paxton said, “Yelp tried to play politics and steer users away from pro-life resources, but being based in the criminal-loving state of California will not shield them from accountability. I will continue to defend pro-life organizations that serve Texans and make sure that women and families are receiving accurate information about our state's resources.” Pew Research: 59% of Americans like influence of religion on society Pew Research reports a sharp rise in the share of U.S. adults who say religion is gaining influence in American life over the last year. The study also shows that more Americans express a positive view of religion's role in society.  The survey found 59% of U.S. adults say religion has a good influence on American life, up from 49% in 2022. Twenty percent have a negative view of religion's influence, down from 26% in 2022. And 21% have a neutral or unclear view of religion's influence, down from 25% in 2022.

Her story is deeply moving, a real glimpse into how God can use simple acts of generosity to open hearts and change lives.We talk about how something as small as a toothbrush or a stuffed animal can become a doorway to the Gospel, and how serving together as a family can shape your kids' hearts for compassion and mission.Here are a few things you'll hear in this episode:The moment a shoebox revealed God's love to a young girl in RomaniaHow small acts of service can create a ripple effect in a child's lifeWhy participating in Operation Christmas Child builds a global perspective in our kidsPractical tips for turning shoebox packing into a fun, meaningful family traditionIzabella grew up in Romania and now works with Samaritan's Purse as a speaker and ambassador for Operation Christmas Child. After receiving a shoebox as a child, she now helps share the Gospel and invite others into the mission of reaching children around the world with hope and joy. Her story is a beautiful reminder of how God uses people, and shoeboxes, to write redemption stories.Grateful for this conversation and praying it inspires you and your family to serve together in new ways.With Love,Steph(00:00) Introduction to Operation Christmas Child(02:50) Izabella's Childhood in Romania(06:08) Discovering Faith in a Communist Regime(09:11) The Impact of a Shoebox Gift(11:50) The Journey of Faith and Prayer(15:00) The Power of Prayer and God's Timing(18:05) The Role of Discipleship in OCC(20:59) Izabella's Path to Working with OCC(24:03) Packing Shoeboxes as a Family(27:08) How to Pack a Shoebox(30:03) The Importance of Generosity and Service(33:09) Conclusion and Call to ActionResources MentionedOperation Christmas ChildGift SuggestionsYear-round packing ideasChristian Parenting Christmas Gift GuidePrefer video?

A Legacy of Hope: The Sunshine State Good News Tour Join Pastor Jack King as he talks with Steve Rhodes, Vice President of Church Ministry for the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. Steve shares exciting details about the upcoming "Sunshine State Good News Tour," led by Will Graham, the grandson of the renowned Billy Graham. This conversation explores the continuation of a powerful family legacy and the vital importance of sharing the gospel today. Main Points from the Discussion: -- The tour is called the "Sunshine State Good News Tour" and will make four stops across Florida, beginning in Tallahassee. -- The message is the same as Billy Graham's: a clear, unswerving focus on the gospel of Jesus Christ and the hope it offers. -- The Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and Franklin Graham's Samaritan's Purse ministry work together to bring help and hope "in the name of Jesus." -- The tour events are designed to be family-friendly festivals with great music, and all are encouraged to bring their own chairs or blankets. -- The true mission of these events is not just for the Grahams to preach but to equip and encourage local Christians to invite their lost friends, neighbors, and family members. -- Churches are reminded not to lose sight of their "true north"—the cross of Jesus Christ—by getting distracted by political or cultural issues. -- A lack of hunger for God and a desire to be in His presence is like an illness, and the solution is to humbly ask God to restore our passion and first love. ******* This is the radio program with the music removed.

Butterscotch detonates at 114 proof. That's where our Weller Foolproof tasting takes off—one bottle from 2024, another from 2025—and the room splits over oak tannins, finish length, and whether a splash of water makes the magic or mutes it. We bring the community into the glass, reading live notes from listeners while we map out how Buffalo Trace's weeded mashbill underpins both Weller and the Pappy Van Winkle line.We walk through the Weller family tree—Special Reserve, Antique 107, Weller 12, Full Proof, and limited runs like CYPB—and explain how non-chill filtration and barrel entry proof shape texture and flavor. Expect a nose packed with caramel, brown sugar, wafer, and cocoa; a palate that screams Werther's without turning flabby; and a long, assertive finish that some read as leather or tobacco and others as dark chocolate with a bitter edge. Then we test “Knobs on Ice” for a proofed-down look at how dilution shifts oak, softens heat, and tweaks balance.Beyond tasting notes, we dig into the realities of availability. Why Weller vanishes from shelves, how lotteries and border-town stores change the game, and where MSRP actually lands when you get lucky. We close with the Old Louisville Whiskey Company's Barrel Bottle Breakdown scoring: nose, body, taste, and finish—and Weller Foolproof walks away with 15.75 out of 18.

The Holy Spirit and the ChurchEphesians 4:1-6Message SlidesI believe in the Holy Spirit - Who applies the work of Christ - Who makes us holy - Who unifies usI believe in the holy catholic Church, the communion of saintsBook recommendation:Keep in Step with the Spirit by JI PackerHOME CHURCH QUESTIONS1. When you think about the Holy Spirit, what images or ideas come to your mind? What Bible passages are most informative for how you think about the Holy Spirit? 2. Do you think there is more mystery surrounding the Holy Spirit than there is with the Father and the Son? Explain why.3. Ephesians 1:3-14, 2:4-6, and 3:16-17 reveal a close relationship between the Spirit and the Son. Look at these passages (and/or John 16:14) and talk about the nature of this relationship. Based on these passages, how can we know if the Spirit is at work in our lives?4. The 3rd Person of the Trinity is called “Holy” because one of His roles is to make us holy. Ephesians 5:18 refers to this as being “filled with the Spirit.” Explain what this means and how we can know if we are being filled with the Spirit. In what areas of your life can you become more controlled by the Spirit? 5. Ephesians 4:4 says, “there is one body and one Spirit.” Explain the relationship among the Spirit, the church, and unity. What does it look like for us to work for unity in the church? Why is this essential? 6. What is the universal, invisible church? What is the local, visible church? Which of these do you tend to emphasize? Why are both important?Mission Highlight - The Java Pesisir Lor in Indonesia The Java Pesisir Lor are a coastal Javanese sub-ethnic group living along northern Java. Traditionally farmers and fishers, many now seek skills for urban and rural jobs. Most follow Sunni Islam, though many practice mystical Sufi traditions and local rituals.

In the wake of national tragedy, God has ensured the Gospel will continue to go forward—using Charlie Kirk's assassination as a catalyst for renewal. Earlier this month, my dad—Franklin Graham—challenged those gathered at the annual Samaritan's Purse Prescription for Renewal Conference to boldly preach the Gospel, just as Charlie did. Today on Fearless we're bringing you his full talk from the medical missions conference—an encouragement for believers to be bold in standing for the Gospel during these pivotal times. My dad opened his message by highlighting Secretary of State Marco Rubio's call to salvation for all those gathered at (and the millions watching online) Charlie Kirk's memorial a few weeks ago. Senator Rubio's willingness to be so bold in his faith was incredible to watch, and should embolden us to do the same. My dad also shared pieces of his own testimony, plus stories working in the field with Samaritan's Purse—from our COVID-19 response in New York City to preparing to enter Gaza with lifesaving aid. Through it all, his message is clear: We no longer have a choice when it comes to proclaiming Jesus as Savior—now is the time to fearlessly preach what we believe, to everyone we meet.

Guest host Steve Hallstrom fills in for Scott Hennen, co-piloting with Kevin Flynn, covering the absurdity of the federal government shutdown as it stretches into its third week. The hosts play audio of House Speaker Mike Johnson and Citizens United President Dave Bossie, who blast Democrats for prioritizing wasteful foreign aid and special-interest spending over funding the military and border security. The hosts reveal a hidden facet of the trade war with China: a potential tariff on "used cooking oil" (gutter oil), which hurts U.S. soybean farmers. Steve then interviews Minnesota gubernatorial candidate Kendall Qualls, an Army veteran and successful businessman, who presents a common-sense, three-part plan to defeat Tim Walz and restore "normal" to Minnesota by cutting taxes, fighting crime, and fixing education.   Political Hypocrisy and the Shutdown Democrat Sabotage: The hosts and guests condemn Democrats for engaging in "performative stunts" and holding out on a clean funding bill for "pure politics". They point out that Schumer's stated goal is to "fix the health care crisis looming over the American people" , which the hosts believe is a fight solely to fund health care for illegal immigrants. Exposing Wasteful Spending: Mike Johnson and Dave Bossie list examples of the Democrats' "reckless" spending that Republicans are trying to cut, including: $24.6 million to "climate resilience in Honduras" $13.4 million for "civic engagement in Zimbabwe" $3.9 million for "LGBTQI democracy grants in the Balkans" Consequences for Americans: Farmers are unable to cash hundreds of thousands of dollars in checks because the FSA (Federal Crop Lending) offices are closed. Mike Johnson warns that the Democrats' choice is causing "real personal and economic strain" for troops, TSA, and air traffic controllers. Fetterman's Common Sense: Senator John Fetterman is praised as a reasonable Democrat for publicly stating that conservative Trump supporters are "not fascists" or trying to destroy the Constitution.   Trade, Agriculture, and China The Gutter Oil Threat: President Trump threatened to place a 100% tariff on goods, specifically "used cooking oil," coming from China. Hurting U.S. Farmers: This used cooking oil is often called "gutter oil" in China. While it is not imported for direct food use, it's used as a cheap ingredient (one-third the price of soybean oil) in biofuel production. The hosts and callers argue that banning this oil would boost demand and prices for U.S. soybeans. Bison Rankings: The NDSU Bison football team is ranked number 38 in…

For over 30 years, Ken Isaacs has (literally) run into the fires of war, genocide, and natural disaster around the world. Serving with Samaritan's Purse alongside my dad, Ken has seen and experienced evil so total, contrasted by miracles that have no explanation outside of the hand of God. Today on Fearless Ken shares the heart behind his new book—Running to the Fire—plus what led him to a life spent serving the Lord and going where God has called, even when there are no roads. From witnessing genocide in Rwanda to negotiating with warlords in Afghanistan, Ken talks about some of the experiences that have shaped a life spent saying yes to God. But in addition to those unbelievable stories, Ken also shares the childhood experiences that prepared his heart for a life spent on mission, the struggles missionary families often face, and why he's never afraid to lead with the Gospel, even in the most hostile of environments. Ken's life of obedience should inspire each of us to trust God and His timing, whether we're called to serve across the world or simply across the hallway of our own homes. Find Ken's new book here: https://www.amazon.com/Running-Fire-Helping-Jesus-Name/dp/083078845X.

What are some of the consequences if Jesus had not risen from the grave? How much of an impact does Jesus' resurrection have in your daily life? 2. We talked about the two states of Christ: humiliation and exaltation. His humiliation involves four steps down: incarnation, suffering, death, and burial. His exaltation involves four steps up: resurrection, ascension, session, and return. Which of these do you tend to think about most/least? Explain why. Which of these should you give more time and attention to? 3. Acts 1:3 says Jesus presented himself alive “by many proofs.” What are some examples of the proofs (you could look at some of the proofs in Luke 24)? What are some lessons we learn from these proofs? For example, why is it significant he ate fish? Or why is it significant he explained the Scriptures? 4. We said it is important to keep Jesus' death and resurrection central in our thinking and in our lives. What are some examples of ways we can do this? 5. Jesus' session at the Father's right hand is an important teaching in the Bible. Do you emphasize Jesus currently sitting at the Father's right hand? Why is it significant that Jesus is at the Father's right hand? (You could refer to Acts 2:32-36 or Heb 8:1 or Rom 8:34.) What impact should this teaching have on our lives now?6. Jesus' second coming is another substantial teaching in the Bible. Do you emphasize Christ's return? Why is it significant that He will return? (You could refer to Acts 10:42 or Acts 17:31 or 2 Tim 4:8.) What impact should this teaching have on our lives now?Mission Highlight - The Khmer in CambodiaThe Khmer are Cambodia's majority people and heirs of the ancient empire seen at Angkor Wat. Most live in rural villages with little access to education, clean water, or healthcare. Their identity is rooted in Buddhism mixed with ancestor and spirit worship, and only a small minority follow Christ. Though Scripture and the JESUS Film exist in Khmer, they still need to see Christ's love through practical help and local believers sharing the gospel with their families and neighbors.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 09/29 27,682Giving For 10/05 33,185YTD Budget 484,615Giving 423,018 OVER/(UNDER) (61,597)The 2025 OCC Season Begins!Operation Christmas Child is a global project of Samaritan's Purse that shares God's love with children in need through gift-filled shoeboxes.

When two faith-based credit unions unite, it's not just about growing bigger—it's about multiplying Kingdom impact. We're talking about something that's a lot more than just a merger— it's about expanding services and supporting ministries worldwide. Aaron Caid joins us today to talk about the exciting merger of Christian Community Credit Union (CCCU) and AdelFi Credit Union.Aaron Caid is the Chief Marketing Officer at Christian Community Credit Union (CCCU), an underwriter of Faith & Finance. A New Season for Christian Community Credit UnionWhen it comes to money, the conversation always goes deeper than numbers. For Christian Community Credit Union (CCCU), finances are a matter of faith, stewardship, and Kingdom impact. That's why the announcement of a merger between CCCU and AdelFi marks such a significant and exciting new chapter.This merger wasn't a quick decision. It was the culmination of nearly two years of prayer, discernment, and thoughtful consideration by both boards. Both organizations share a Christ-centered mission, with AdelFi carrying a 60-year history of faith-aligned banking and a strong commitment to supporting Christian ministries. The merger is designed to create a stronger credit union, expand reach, and multiply Kingdom impact.What Members Can ExpectFor CCCU and AdelFi members, the transition will be seamless. Accounts and services will remain uninterrupted. At the same time, members can look forward to enhanced digital tools, stronger security, expanded member support, and greater lending capacity. That means more opportunities to serve individuals, churches, ministries, and faith-based businesses with tailored financial solutions.The heart of this merger is ministry. By combining resources, CCCU will be able to give more generously to global partners such as Samaritan's Purse, the Tim Tebow Foundation, and Mission Aviation Fellowship. Together, the new institution will support churches, mission-sending agencies, and faith-based organizations with greater financial strength. At the end of the day, it's not just banking, it's stewarding resources for eternal impact.With the merger complete, CCCU will become the largest Christian banking institution in the United States—holding more than $1.5 billion in assets. Beyond size, the partnership brings specialized expertise. AdelFi's strength in serving Christian-owned businesses complements CCCU's established ministry partnerships, while AdelFi's connection to over 4,000 missionaries deepens the reach to those serving around the world.The Path AheadThe merger is officially effective December 1, and members don't need to take any action. Services will continue seamlessly, with every account insured up to $250,000. CCCU is committed to keeping members updated through email and the merger hubs on their websites.This partnership represents more than financial growth—it's about multiplying impact for the Kingdom. Together, CCCU and AdelFi are equipping God's people and ministries with financial tools that advance the Gospel and care for others in Jesus' name.To learn more about this new chapter in Christian banking, visit FaithFi.com/Banking.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I have approximately $630,000 in savings and would like guidance on how to invest it, pay off around $20,000 in debt, and purchase a home within the next year.

On today's program, the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association was a founding member of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability. Its sister ministry, Samaritan's Purse, joined soon after. Now, both ministries have voluntarily resigned due to a newly added leadership requirement. We'll have details. And, pro-life ministries continue to adjust to a post-Roe world. MinistryWatch senior reporter Kim Roberts took a deep dive into where the pro-life movement stands now. Plus, the Church of England names its first female Archbishop of Canterbury, Sarah Mullally. The appointment was ratified by King Charles III last week. But first, Tony Evans will not be returning to lead his Dallas megachurch after completing a year-long restoration process due to an undisclosed sin.  The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. We get database and other technical support from Stephen DuBarry, Rod Pitzer, and Casey Sudduth. Writers who contributed to today's program include Adelle Banks, Kim Roberts, Isaac Wood, Greg Teffertiller, Daniel Ritchie, Tony Mator, Danika Kirka, Brian Melley, Yonat Shimron, Barry Bowen, Makella Knowles, and Christina Darnell.

Kathleen Casey joins Jana Byars to talk about The Things She Carried: A Cultural History of the Purse in America (Oxford UP, 2025). Purses and bags have always been much more than a fashion accessory. For generations of Americans, the purse has been an essential and highly adaptable object, used to achieve a host of social, cultural, and political objectives. In the early 1800s, when the slim fit of neoclassical dresses made interior pockets impractical, upper-class women began to carry small purses called reticules, which provided them with a private place in a world where they did not have equal access to public space. Although many items of apparel have long expressed their wearer's aspirations, only the purse has offered carriers privacy, pride, and pleasure. This privacy has been particularly important for those who have faced discrimination because of their gender, class, race, citizenship, or sexuality. The Things She Carried reveals how bags, sacks, and purses provided the methods and materials for Americans' activism, allowing carriers to transgress critical boundaries at key moments. It explores how enslaved people used purses and bags when attempting to escape and immigrant factory workers fought to protect their purses in the workplace. It also probes the purse's nuanced functions for Black women in the civil rights movement and explores how LGBTQ people used purses to defend their bodies and make declarations about their sexuality. Kathleen Casey closely examines a variety of sources--from vintage purses found in abandoned buildings and museum collections to advertisements, photograph albums, trade journals, newspaper columns, and trial transcripts. She finds purses in use at fraught historical moments, where they served strategic and symbolic functions for their users. The result is a thorough and surprising examination of an object that both ordinary and extraordinary Americans used to influence social, cultural, economic, and political change.
