If journalism is the first draft of history, what happens if that draft turns out to be flawed? The History Bureau revisits the defining stories of our times with the reporters who first covered them. What did they get right first time around? And, in the chaos and confusion of unfolding events, what did they miss?Season 1: Putin and the Apartment Bombs. In September 1999, just weeks after a 46-year-old Vladimir Putin became Prime Minister, four bombs blew up four apartment buildings across Russia, killing hundreds of people while they slept. The attacks plunged the country into panic. Families fled their homes. Residents patrolled their blocks around the clock. An entire nation paralyzed by fear. But who did it? It's a mystery that has fuelled some chilling theories. The government blamed Chechen militants. Many reporters agreed. But then the whispers started. Was something even more sinister going on?If you're in the UK, listen first to The History Bureau on BBC Sounds - or elsewhere in the world, listen on BBC.com or wherever you get your podcasts.

Samantha Rux joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to talk about the upcoming blood drive on February 12th and tips for heart health by staying active. February is Heart Month, and local healthcare providers are raising awareness about heart health. OSF Healthcare is hosting a blood drive on Thursday, February 12, from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the East-West conference room. Donors can book appointments online at bloodcenter.org, but walk-ins are also welcome. Nearly 800 lives were saved last year through local drives. Experts encourage regular physical activity—150 minutes of cardio exercise a week, with walking and swimming suggested as accessible options. The YMCA offers indoor pools and senior programs, supporting low-impact exercise for all ages. Small lifestyle changes can make a big difference for heart health. As National Blood Donor Month draws to a close, the community celebrates an extraordinary year of generosity with ImpactLife. The past year saw 269 registered donors contributing 282 blood donations, with an estimated 794 lives touched by this collective effort. Organizers hope to carry this spirit forward as they announce the first blood drive of 2026, scheduled for Thursday, February 12th. Residents are encouraged to play their part—just one donation can make a profound difference. To join this lifesaving mission, sign up for the upcoming drive online and help create hope for those in need.

February 8th, 2026 | Encounter | John 14What if God actually answered the prayers we've been praying?In this powerful message from our Encounter series, Pastor Derrick Jackson challenges us with a sobering reality: when we ask God to come near, He doesn't show up as a guest—He moves in as a resident.Through John 14:16–23, we see that Jesus didn't promise a temporary visitation. He promised the Holy Spirit—another Helper of the same kind—to dwell with us forever. Not occasionally. Not conditionally. Forever.But here's the tension: guests are easy. Residents are not.Guests don't rearrange your life. Residents do.Guests overlook messes. Residents address them.Guests visit. Residents take ownership.When God makes His home in us, He doesn't just comfort—He confronts. He doesn't affirm everything—He redeems everything. His presence exposes what we've learned to manage, challenges what we've delayed surrendering, and transforms what we've kept behind closed doors.This message is a heartfelt call to move beyond inviting God into moments and instead surrendering the whole house—our habits, our relationships, our private struggles, our delayed obedience. Because when Christ reigns, obedience begins—imperfectly, but sincerely.You don't clean the house so God will move in. Jesus already paid the price so God could dwell in imperfect people.The question isn't whether God will come near.The question is: Are you ready for Him to stay?Listen in and ask yourself—are you praying for a visit, or are you ready for full residence?Do you know JESUS?: https://www.nblongview.org/do-you-know-jesusNeed PRAYER?: https://www.nblongview.org/praySUPPORT through giving: https://www.nbbctx.org/giving
