Shownotes Israel's wars since October 7 have produced a great deal of death, displacement and destruction, but very little security. Nathan Brown, a political scientist and longtime scholar of hte Middle East, has cut through the confusion of recent history with a penetrating and provocative set of eight theses. Drawing on Israeli statements and discourse, he outlined in a recent essay the elements of Israel's new doctrine. Prior to October 7, Brown argues, Israel used warfare as a means to a political outcome. Today, Israelis plan for war itself to be the end state. On this episode of Order from Ashes, he elaborates on his piercing description of Israel's new doctrine, and why it's not likely to produce security or stability for anyone. Readings Nathan Brown, “Rubble is Israel's Doctrine, Not a Case of Improvisation,” Carnegie Endowment, May 21, 2026. Laura Silver and Laura Clancy, “Most people across 36 countries have negative views of Israel and little confidence in Netanyahu,” Pew Research, June 4, 2026  Participants Nathan J. Brown is professor of political science and international affairs at George Washington University and a non-resident senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.

June 11, 2026 Daily Devotional: “Mind to Work”Nehemiah 4:6 ​"So we rebuilt the wall, and all the wall was joined together to half its height, for the people had a mind to work."  ​ ​Have you ever started a project with high energy, only to watch that enthusiasm fizzle out when the first sign of trouble appeared? When Nehemiah and the people of Jerusalem set out to rebuild their broken city walls, they weren't working in a vacuum. They were surrounded by critics, mockers, and enemies who wanted nothing more than to see them fail. The taunts were loud: "What arethose feeble Jews doing?" and "If even a fox climbs up on it, he will break down their wall!" ​It would have been incredibly easy for the people to throw down their trowels, buy into the discouragement, and walk away. But Nehemiah 4:6 reveals their secretweapon: the people had a mind to work. The phrase "a mind to work" means their hearts were fully invested. They weren't just physically putting one stone on top of another; their minds were made up, their focus waslocked, and their determination was rooted in a purpose bigger than their immediate comfort. They chose to listen to God's call rather than the critics' noise. Because of that unified, iron-willed focus, the wall reached half its height. It's often at that "halfway point" of our own goals—when the initial excitement has worn off and the finish line is still far away—that weariness sets in. That is exactly when we need a "mind to work." When you secure your heart in God's strength, the opinions of the critics lose their power to stop you. ​In any great endeavor, the halfway point is notoriously dangerous. The initial adrenaline and excitement of starting something new have completely evaporated.Rubble is still everywhere, the finish line is still miles away, and physical fatigue is setting in hard. In fact, just a few verses later in verse 10, the people actually start to complain that their strength is failing because thereis too much rubbish. Ultimately, Nehemiah 4:6 means that internal alignment matters more than external opposition. It teaches that when a community or an individual secures their heart in a divine purpose, they can tune out heavy criticism, overcome massive fatigue, and achieve significant, tangible progress. Therefore, Nehemiah 4:6 stands as a monument to resilience. Reaching half the height meant the gaps were closed, the city was finallyenclosed and safe from sudden ambush, and their momentum was officially greater than their obstacles. ​Identify the noise; what negative voices, self-doubts, or distractions are trying to pull you away from what God has called you to build in your family, your career, your faith, your health? Shift your focus, instead of arguing with the "critics" or fixing your eyes on how much wall is left to build, focus on the next stone. Consistent, small acts of obedience add up. ​Check your heart and ask God to renew your inner determination. When your heart isanchored in Him, your hands will find the strength to keep working.

Have you ever gotten a song or jingle stuck in your head that you couldn't get rid of? Maybe you were driving, folding laundry, or just sitting there minding your own business, But suddenly, it entered your head and you couldn't get rid of it. The Germans actually came up with a word for this. They called…

Shownotes After the assassination of its leader in September 2024, Hezbollah sank to its weakest point since its founding in 1982. Supporters began to doubt Hezbollah's capabilities, and detractors—inside Lebanon and abroad—planned to dismantle the group. In March of this year, Lebanon's government outlawed Hezbollah's powerful militia. Many of Hezbollah's competitors and critics declared the end of the group's military capability and political base. But Hezbollah's strength has returned. This spring, as Israel has expanded its occupation of southern Lebanon, Hezbollah has fought effectively. It's all looking very much like a comeback. Century International fellow Sima Ghaddar has closely tracked Hezbollah's constituents and power, and shares a granular look at how the group has revived, and how researchers can assess the notoriously opaque organization.

A nova defesa de Daniel Vorcaro tenta fortalecer a delação do ex-banqueiro junto ao Supremo Tribunal Federal. Na semana passada a Polícia Federal rejeitou a proposta de colaboração ao entender que Vorcaro não falou tudo que sabia. Condenado pelo assassinato da advogada Mércia Nakashima, o ex-policial militar e ex-advogado Mizael Bispo de Souza lançou um livro em que volta a negar participação no crime ocorrido há 16 anos na Grande São Paulo. No texto, ele afirma que as autoridades “não foram atrás do autor do crime”. Mércia desapareceu em maio de 2010 após sair da casa da avó, em Guarulhos. O carro foi encontrado semanas depois submerso em uma represa em Nazaré Paulista, onde também foi localizado o corpo da vítima. Segundo as investigações, Mércia foi atraída pelo ex-namorado, baleada e morreu afogada após o veículo ser lançado na água. A motivação do crime teria sido a não aceitação do fim do relacionamento por parte de Mizael. O ministro do Supremo Tribunal Federal, Flávio Dino, negou neste domingo (24) o pedido de aplicação de medidas cautelares alternativas à prisão da influenciadora Deolane Bezerra, como o uso de tornozeleira eletrônica ou prisão domiciliar. O ministro alegou que o pedido da defesa ainda deve passar por outras instâncias antes de chegar ao Supremo, que não vê ilegalidade na prisão preventiva de Deolane e afirmou que o Tribunal “não deve ser usado como atalho para contestar decisões”.

It can be hard to change when we have old habits, traditions, and desires in the way? It is like a building; reconstruction is difficult with existing clutter, rather than starting from a clean foundation. God cleanses us of the rubble so He can build within us.

Before you rebuild there is a process we all have to go through.

Episode 292 of the Beers & Bible Podcast walks through Romans 10:1–13 and Paul's burden for Israel: they had zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.Religious passion is not enough if it is aimed in the wrong direction. Paul shows us that our righteousness cannot be built on effort, law-keeping, or personal merit. Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.The gospel is not far away or hidden from us. The word is near: confess Jesus as Lord, believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and call upon Him for salvation.

Pat Griffiths, Spokesperson for the International Committee of the Red Cross, discusses his recent visit to their field hospital in Gaza.

In this episode, I sit down with Pierre Mousseau — entrepreneur, keynote speaker, and author of From the Ashes: A Father's Journey Through Grief, Grace, and Faith. This is one of the most extraordinary, raw, and spiritually powerful conversations this show has ever had. Pierre grew up with a severely alcoholic and mentally abusive father, was molested at 11, slept on the streets at 17, and was kicked out of his home at 19. He built himself into an entrepreneur, a husband, and a father. And then his son Parker — sweet, joyful, endlessly loving Parker — was taken from him at 21 years old after a catastrophic bowel emergency, five surgeries, and seven weeks in the ICU. Pierre made the decision to remove him from life support. Five months later, with his company collapsing and the grief unbearable, Pierre got into his car at full speed aimed at a maple tree. He should have died that day. He didn't. What follows is one of the most extraordinary stories of faith, forgiveness, and divine intervention you will ever hear — from the church he walked into while still hating God, to the deacon whose homily that Sunday was about losing a child, to the moment in the shower when something held him and everything changed. This episode will stop you in your tracks. And it will remind you to hug your kids today. Timeline Summary [0:00] Introduction to the Dad Edge mission and the movement to raise leaders of families and communities [1:02] Pierre's childhood — alcoholic and abusive father, bullied at school, Spider-Man comics as his only escape [5:33] Moving in with a drug-addicted uncle at 17, sleeping on the streets, and nobody noticing he was gone [7:44] Being molested at 11 — and the family that never did anything about it [8:31] Driving four hours to see his dying father determined to tell him everything — and what actually happened instead [10:41] Saying "I forgive you" at his father's bedside — and still carrying the hatred for years after [15:51] Introducing Pierre — entrepreneur, speaker, and author of From the Ashes [17:30] Who Parker was — how he loved, what made him extraordinary, and the boy who still believed in Santa Claus at 14 [21:30] The phone call from the hospital — and the doctor who said "I don't know what happened but his bowel is pink" [23:33] Seven weeks in the ICU, ICU delirium, and the decision Pierre had to make [25:39] "I felt like I murdered my child" — the guilt that followed Pierre for years [32:18] The hardest decision he has ever made — and why he couldn't keep Parker alive for himself [38:02] Five months after Parker's death, the company collapsed — and on a Saturday morning Pierre got in his car to end his life [39:09] Heading for a maple tree at full speed — and what stopped him [40:44] Eleven months of hating God — and the Sunday morning he suddenly drove to church [41:21] Walking into mass on the homily about losing a child — and sobbing until the woman beside him put her hand on his shoulder [43:52] Meeting Deacon Curtis, the grief retreat, Parker's orange tag, and the text that said "I think Parker is trying to tell you something" [47:30] In the shower in March 2025 — the purple light, the arms that held him, and the love that changed everything [51:14] Strength is not pushing through — strength is vulnerability, asking for help, and being willing to say "this sucks" [52:38] The keynote at the convent and the woman with a cane who walked up at the end without one [56:47] The man in the steam room bashing his kids — and what Pierre said that silenced the room Five Key Takeaways Forgiveness is not a feeling — it's a decision you make before the feeling follows. Pierre said the words at his father's bedside before he was ready. The release came years later. Grief and guilt will destroy you if you carry them alone. The bravest thing Pierre did wasn't surviving the worst moments — it was finally saying "I need help" and meaning it. Strength is not pushing through. Strength is vulnerability. Strength is allowing yourself to cry, to feel, to say this is hard, and to ask for another man to come alongside you. You never know when the moments will be gone. Cherish the ordinary ones — the arcade nights, the couch cuddles, the conversations that start after midnight. Parker would tell you that. God meets you in your most broken moment — not when you've cleaned yourself up. Pierre was still hating God when he walked through that church door. It didn't matter.

Not tomorrow. Today. Pierre Mousseau lost the most loving person he had ever known. And what he has done with that loss — the book, the keynotes, the moment in the steam room, the woman who walked without her cane — is one of the most beautiful things we have ever witnessed on this show. Don't let another day go by without telling the people who matter most that you love them. Go out and live legendary.

In the 1950s, a young Dutch missionary named Brother Andrew began traveling behind the Iron Curtain.

By sunrise, Tokyo is an "apocalyptic wasteland" of rubble and ash, with an estimated 105,000 people dead—a toll four times higher than the bombing of Dresden. Rescuers like Dr. Kuboto describe nightmarish scenes of bodies melted together in piles and remains floating in the rivers. On Guam, LeMay feels a sense of relief as reports indicate his gamble was successful and casualties were far lower than the predicted 70%. Despite the destruction, Emperor Hirohito and his aides continue to seek "one more victory" to improve their bargaining position at the surrender table. LeMay, however, immediately continues his campaign, burning out Nagoya, Osaka, and Kobe throughout the spring and summer of 1945. By the time the atomic bomb is tested in July, LeMay's conventional incendiary campaign has already destroyed nearly all of Japan's major industrial centers and secondary cities, doing the "heavy lifting" of the air war. 7/81964 LEMAY

Send me a Text Message!Are we owning our rubble? That's the question that will end this episode. Remember the BLESS acronymn that gives us some rebuilding, story-writing, principles? B is for "Be Still." L is "Look for the rubble." Nehemiah allows his heart to be saturated by the brokenness of people and causes. He looked for the rubble. But he didn't just look for it. He owned it. And owning it led to a turn of the page. We live a culture that has a hard time seeing our own rubble. We can see it in others, the other side, the other team, the other person. But when I see it in me, when I own it, that leads to breakthrough.So are you owning your rubble?

The north is levelling up again, this time thanks to AI and Cyber and other such concepts. It's definitely going to revitalise things and not just extract even more wealth to hand to clowns who work in tech, the government pinky swears. Also, and I'm quite sure this won't effect the previous thing I mentioned at all so don't worry, AI isn't making anyone any money and the whole house of cards is teetering on the brink of calamity. Finally, to take a break from The Bottomless Slop Fountain That is Wrong About Everything, we check how centrist journalists are coping with the fall of Sir Keir Starmer.

Hosted by Steve Nerlich. Bringing it home. Cheap Astronomy digs in to asteroid mining. Dear Cheap Astronomy – Are rubble pile asteroids easier to mine? Rubble pile asteroids are a collection of rocks that have accreted together under their mutual gravity, but the object they form isn't massive enough for gravity to compress it into one unified object. Instead, the rocks that gather together remain as individual rocks. So, from a mining perspective there's an advantage in that you can just pick up those individual rocks without needing drilling or explosives.    Dear Cheap Astronomy – How do we get mining products back to Earth? The current narrative on space mining seems to go in two directions. One direction is about in situ resource utilization (ISRU in NASA speak) where there's no doubt it's a lot cheaper to source water from space than to launch it from Earth – and a similar principle applies to most building materials: steel, concrete and glass. Of course, the mathematics of in situ resource utilization makes perfect sense but begs the question of what the economic incentives are to build dwellings in space and source space water to support the people in those dwellings, as well supporting agriculture and making rocket fuel. If we can't identify those incentives, we're just saying that we're going to go into space so we can go into space.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

In Vision Sunday part 2, Jacintha continues on the vision of HTBB church by speaking about how to build from rubble to renewal. Preaching from the book of Nehemiah, the principles for building are: restore the right foundations, build strong pillars, and form a wall of protection. Nehemiah 4:10-20

By Marshall Malone

What happens when brokenness becomes normal and survival replaces vision? Many live with spiritual rubble, fractured relationships, or quiet defeat for so long that dysfunction feels permanent. In Nehemiah 2:9–20, Pastor Dorrell examines how Nehemiah surveyed the ruins, confronted the people's distress, and called them to rise and build. The sermon shows that real rebuilding begins with prayer, honest evaluation, courageous encouragement, and confidence in the good hand of God. Change requires moving from passive acceptance to active agency, trusting that faith joined with God's help can overcome inertia and opposition. Listeners are challenged to identify their own rubble, strengthen their hands for the work, and take the first faithful step toward restoration.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Description:What if the most faithful thing we could do right now is simply pay attention? In this episode of For the Love, Jen and Amy sit down with theologian, ethics professor, and artist Lee C. Camp for a soulful conversation about the kind of faith that wakes us up to what truly matters. As part of our Wake Up Call series on faith, Lee invites us to slow down and notice the world—our lives, our neighbors, and the beauty that keeps trying to reach us. Together, they explore why paying attention is not a luxury but a spiritual practice—and how our obsession with productivity, planning, and certainty can cause us to miss the most beautiful and formative parts of our lives. Lee reflects on what it means to know ourselves as deeply beloved by God, not because of what we produce but because love is the starting point of a life well lived. This conversation traces the threads of human flourishing and imagination, and asks why beauty—found in art, nature, poetry, and story—often teaches us more about God than arguments ever could. As he often does on his own No Small Endeavor podcast, Lee challenges us to consider what Christians are being called to wake up to in this season: a renewed attention to community, to creation, and to a church that is something we practice together, not merely something we attend. If you're longing for a faith that feels grounded, spacious, and alive—one that helps you live a good life in the world you actually inhabit—this episode is a gentle, necessary wake-up call. Thought-provoking Quotes: “What Christianity most needs right now is to rediscover the basics of the beautiful story which we claim to believe.” – Lee C. Camp The model of the cross means that if we take up our cross and follow Christ, that we can expect difficulty because so much of human history doesn't want that kind of way. Religious powers don't want that. Imperialist powers don't want that. And so we can trust that we're going to have our own kind of crosses to bear along the way. And yet that life has triumphed over death. That love has triumphed over hatred. that beauty and truth and goodness has triumphed over hostility and ugliness and meanness. And so that's the big story.” – Lee C. Camp I deeply understand why a lot of people just can't believe all this [religious] stuff. But for me, it, the story at its best. is so beautiful that I don't know why everybody doesn't want to believe it, even if they can't believe it. It's this place  we embody this narrative, embody this beauty, embody this brokenness in which we try to find tangible ways to do life together.” – Lee C.
