And he read in their hearing all the words of the Book of the Covenant that had been found in the house of the Lord. 3 And the king stood by the pillar and made a covenant before the Lord, to walk after the Lord and to keep his commandments and his testimonies and his statutes with all his heart and all his soul, to perform the words of this covenant that were written in this book. And all the people joined in the covenant.4 And the king commanded Hilkiah the high priest and the priests of the second order and the keepers of the threshold to bring out of the temple of the Lord all the vessels made for Baal, for Asherah, and for all the host of heaven. He burned them outside Jerusalem in the fields of the Kidron and carried their ashes to Bethel. 5 And he deposed the priests whom the kings of Judah had ordained to make offerings in the high places at the cities of Judah and around Jerusalem; those also who burned incense to Baal, to the sun and the moon and the constellations and all the host of the heavens. 6 And he brought out the Asherah from the house of the Lord, outside Jerusalem, to the brook Kidron, and burned it at the brook Kidron and beat it to dust and cast the dust of it upon the graves of the common people. 7 And he broke down the houses of the male cult prostitutes who were in the house of the Lord, where the women wove hangings for the Asherah. 8 And he brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defiled the high places where the priests had made offerings, from Geba to Beersheba. And he broke down the high places of the gates that were at the entrance of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which were on one's left at the gate of the city. 9 However, the priests of the high places did not come up to the altar of the Lord in Jerusalem, but they ate unleavened bread among their brothers. 10 And he defiled Topheth, which is in the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, that no one might burn his son or his daughter as an offering to Molech.[a] 11 And he removed the horses that the kings of Judah had dedicated to the sun, at the entrance to the house of the Lord, by the chamber of Nathan-melech the chamberlain, which was in the precincts.[b] And he burned the chariots of the sun with fire. 12 And the altars on the roof of the upper chamber of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars that Manasseh had made in the two courts of the house of the Lord, he pulled down and broke in pieces[c] and cast the dust of them into the brook Kidron. 13 And the king defiled the high places that were east of Jerusalem, to the south of the mount of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had built for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Sidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, and for Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites. 14 And he broke in pieces the pillars and cut down the Asherim and filled their places with the bones of men.#mbchicago #2kings #BibleStudy #DanielBatarseh #mbchicago #mbcchicago #Bible #livechurch #churchlive #chicagochurch #chicagochurches #versebyverse #church #chicago #sermon #bibleexplained #bibleproject #bibleverse #bookbybook #oldtestament #explained

This thought-provoking conversation with dental accountancy expert Johnny Minford unpacks the substantial changes ahead for dental professionals across the UK.We delve deep into the new hybrid payment model that combines traditional UDAs with a £70 fee-per-item component for specific treatments – a significant departure from the pure UDA system that has dominated since 2006. Johnny offers expert analysis on how these changes might impact practice finances and clinical decision-making, while raising important questions about whether these incremental modifications will deliver the transformational shift that NHS dentistry desperately needs.Perhaps most intriguing is our exploration of the "neighbourhood health service" concept, which could fundamentally alter how basic dental care is delivered. As Johnny explains, this approach might improve patient access but risks redirecting routine treatments away from traditional practices, potentially pushing dentists toward becoming de facto specialists rather than family oral healthcare providers. We consider the wider implications for practice business models and patient relationships if this trend continues.The conversation takes a particularly compelling turn when we examine the government's proposals for increased oversight through structured audits, model associate contracts, and practice handbooks. These developments signal a potential power shift in how dentistry is regulated and practiced, raising legitimate concerns about professional autonomy in an already heavily regulated field. Johnny's insights on the employment status question are especially valuable, as he breaks down the financial mathematics that make employed status potentially damaging for both associates and practice owners.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

Why ‘Mandatory Reporting' Failed to Stop Devil's Den Killer-Teacher Welcome to the teaser episode of Classroom Coverup, a 10-part true crime podcast series that exposes the disturbing practice known as "passing the trash," where schools allow teachers accused of predatory behavior—such as grooming, inappropriate touching, or sexual comments toward students—to resign quietly without reporting to authorities or documenting issues in their records. Often, these educators receive neutral or even positive references, enabling them to move to new districts or states and continue endangering children. Drawing on court documents, survivor accounts, news reports, and verified statistics, this episode introduces the series by highlighting the most shocking cases and the systemic failures that allow them to persist. We cover cases like Andrew McGann, whose alleged favoritism toward young girls went unreported as he moved across states, culminating in a 2025 double murder; Gary Gregor's decades-long abuse spree across Utah, Montana, and New Mexico, ending in a 2022 conviction for child rape; and Jon White's horrific acts in Illinois, feeding semen-laced snacks to second-graders after a misleading reference. From impregnating a teen in California's elite schools to recent 2024-2025 cases involving cheer coaches and Scientology-linked cover-ups, the allegations are staggering: molestation, rape, and even murder tied to unchecked escalation. Why does this happen? Schools prioritize avoiding lawsuits, union pressures protect teachers, and administrators choose silence to preserve reputations. The impact is devastating: 10% of K-12 students face misconduct (Shakeshaft 2004), with Texas logging 4,300 unreported educator exits since 2017 against 2,500 charges. Victims suffer lifelong PTSD, while districts like LAUSD pay out $1.4 billion in settlements. Reforms like Texas' SB 571 and New Jersey's hush bans offer hope, but gaps remain. This teaser breaks down what happened, why it matters, and how to fight back with advocacy and awareness. On X, #EndPassingTheTrash is gaining traction. Listen, share, and join the movement—kids' safety depends on it!

She has also written op-eds for the Washington Post, the Foreign Policy, and the EU Observer – but it's a major article she wrote for the UK's Guardian newspaper that we'll be discussing today.----------DESCRIPTION: Understanding Kyiv Protests: An In-Depth Discussion with Anti-Corruption Advocate Olena Halushka Jonathan speaks with Olena Halushka, a board member of the Ukrainian NGO Anti-Corruption Action Center and co-founder of the International Center for Ukrainian Victory. The conversation covers the ongoing protests in Kyiv, the role of Russian aggression, the significance of EU integration for Ukraine, and the internal challenges of anti-corruption and judicial reforms. Elena clarifies the nature of the protests, expressing that they are in favor of Ukraine's EU integration and not against the government. The discussion also delves into the horizontal strength of Ukrainian society, the impact of Western misconceptions, and the broader implications of these reforms on Ukraine's resilience during wartime. Lastly, Olena provides insights into how Western misunderstanding of Ukraine's decentralized but resilient structure and the importance of maintaining justice and anti-corruption measures, even during the war, are crucial for Ukraine's future.----------CHAPTERS: 00:00 Introduction and Guest Welcome01:22 Current Situation in Ukraine02:11 Understanding the Protests04:03 EU Integration and Democratic Reforms05:24 The Role of Civil Society and Media13:48 Russian Occupation and Humanitarian Crisis21:04 Global Implications and Support for Ukraine25:34 Anti-Corruption Reforms and Internal Challenges51:31 Conclusion and Final Thoughts----------LINKS:https://twitter.com/OlenaHalushka https://twitter.com/AntAC_ua https://twitter.com/ICUVua https://www.linkedin.com/in/olena-halushka-b7342259/?originalSubdomain=ua https://ukrainianvictory.org/experts/olena-halushka/ https://www.fpri.org/contributor/olena-halushka/https://cepa.org/author/olena-halushka/https://archive.kyivpost.com/author/olena-halushkahttps://foreignpolicy.com/author/olena-halushka/----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:Save Ukrainehttps://www.saveukraineua.org/Superhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

On Friday, Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith announced various changes to the electoral system in New Zealand which he says seek to make the process of voting more efficient and effective for future elections. These include the closing of enrolment 13 days before the official election day, prohibiting the provision of food and drink at polling booths, and a reinstatement of a total prisoner voting ban. A number of Labour and Greens party politicians have been among those to criticise the changes as a disenfranchisement of voters which will make democratic engagement in New Zealand more difficult. As well, last week the Ministry for Housing and Urban Development released the latest iteration of the Homelessness Insights Report which reveals that there has been a quantifiable rise in homelessness across Aotearoa.

The Queensland government has accepted all eight recommendations from an independent review of the Home Education Unit, following backlash against enforcing the Australian curriculum on homeschoolers.
