On Behalf of Ten by Autumn Dickson The Old Testament is chock full of stories. One of the stories this week is about Sodom and Gomorrah. They were an incredibly wicked city, and the Lord destroyed them. Before the Lord does so, He talks to Abraham about it. Abraham has a whole conversation with the Lord where he asks the Lord not to destroy the city if he can find righteous people within it. First, Abraham asks the Lord to spare it if he can find 50 righteous people. Then he keeps decreasing that number until we reach this point: Genesis 18:32 And he said, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak yet but this once: Peradventure ten shall be found there. And he said, I will not destroy it for ten's sake. The Lord agrees to not destroy it for the sake of ten righteous people. This is an oft-repeating principle throughout scriptures. The Lord preserves nations because of a few righteous within it. The first example that comes to mind is Ammonihah. When Ammonihah killed and exiled all of the believers, it was ripe for destruction, and that was precisely what happened. The entire city was demolished by the Lamanites. The second one that comes to mind is in Isaiah 65 where the Lord talks about preserving the vine on behalf of a small cluster of good grapes. It repeats far more than that, but those are just a couple of examples. And of course, there is a type in this. Let's talk about it. Sometimes it's not about preserving a nation but a person. Abraham loved people enough that He pleaded with the Lord to save the city if he could find even a little bit of righteousness within it. Abraham is a type of Christ, and Christ pleads on our behalf even when there is only a little bit of righteousness within us. He loves us and wants us to have time to figure it out. It is important to understand what that means and why He does it. When the Lord preserves a nation on behalf of the righteous who are dwelling there, He isn't declaring the entire nation righteous. He isn't turning a blind eye to the wickedness found there. He doesn't plan on interceding on behalf of those who are unrepentant. For them, it will be as if no atonement had been made. Can you imagine how Lot's daughters might have felt if Heavenly Father ignored what they had tried to do? Can you imagine how minimalized and cast aside and unsafe they would feel? Mercy and intercession are not about ignoring wickedness. Rather, it is because He is providing the righteous with an opportunity to grow if possible. In Alma 13, we read more about the king of Salem, Melchizedek. Melchizedek is a person from the Old Testament who blessed Abraham at one point. He was also king over a city that had waxed strong in abomination. They had “all” gone astray and were “full” of wickedness, except for Melchizedek. It was just Melchizedek. And yet, through the preaching of Melchizedek, the people repented and were saved. When it comes to our own hearts, the Lord is willing to intercede if we repent. If there is a shred of goodness in us that holds sway, there is a chance to be saved. On the flip side, we read about Ammonihah that I mentioned previously. Alma went there, was rejected, and left. He was commanded by an angel to return again, and in doing so, he came to Amulek. Amulek's home welcomed him in and blessed him. After Alma and Amulek were preaching, some were converted but the leaders of Ammonihah killed them by fire. Alma and Amulek escape, and Ammonihah is destroyed. If we willfully kill those good seeds within us and reject Christ that thoroughly, He will not plead on our behalf. He does not save us in our sins. He saves us from our sins when we're trying to escape them. He saves us long enough to let our choices play out in either direction, to the ultimate rejection of Him or to our repentance. I want to expand the example of Ammonihah just a bit. There are times when the Lord chooses to rain down His justice on purpose. There are times when He actively brings down trials and tragedy upon His people. When the wickedness is so bad that a softer answer won't hit the mark, the Lord is not afraid of using a hard answer. There are times that He directly brings about difficulty in an attempt to reach us. I wonder if it's just a tad different with the city of Ammonihah. I wonder if the Lord didn't have a hand in bringing the Lamanites to their doorstep to destroy them. I wonder if the Lord simply didn't protect them any longer. There is a type in this. Sometimes the Lord purposefully rains down difficulty to try and shake us awake to our awful condition. But when it comes to a “final” judgment, He simply steps aside and doesn't plead on our behalf. It is as if there is no atonement of Jesus Christ. Ammonihah wasn't a final, final judgment, but it was a type of final judgment. It was meant to teach us something about the nature of eternity. The Lord wasn't trying to reach them anymore; they had already shown that they didn't want Him. Rather, He simply stepped aside and didn't save them. His atonement simply didn't apply in their lives. Abraham pleaded on behalf of Sodom and Gomorrah because he couldn't stomach the idea of such destruction. It was hard for him to watch. After Lot was gone, I'm sure Abraham hated to watch it happen, but accepted the tragic necessity. Abraham is a type of the Lord. Our Lord and Savior pleads on our behalf. If there are even ten good people, He wants to give us time and let us play out our choices. He intercedes on our behalf and preserves us until the day that we completely reject Him. He performed the atonement, the intercession, because He couldn't stand to watch us be destroyed when there was good in us. Honestly, I think He can't stand to watch us be destroyed even after we have rejected Him, but He weighs that option with letting us destroy everything around us. I testify that the Lord wants to save us. He is pleading with us to come and be saved. He isn't standing there with a ruler ready to kick us out at any infraction. He is doing everything He can to get us to hear Him and find peace in Him. He stands ready to save us and then walk us through repentance towards a happier state of being like He did with Melchizedek and the city of Salem. He wants to save. Let Him. Work with Him.

This time on Monthly Spooky, Henrique & Michelle tear into spooky news, true crime weirdness, and classic American vampire lore—the kind of stories that feel like they should be fake… but we're not so lucky. Inside this episode:Galway exorcism: the headline that sounds impossible—“poltergeist of dead baby torments family”—and why it set the tone for the night. Rhode Island UFO sighting: a pilot report of an unexplained object over Rhode Island, and the eternal question—do you believe? Las Vegas escaped toucan: a rescue group tries to catch an escaped toucan before the desert weather does. Boston skull in concrete: a grim discovery that kicks up rumors, crime-history vibes, and that “what if it's worse than we think?” feeling. New England vampire panic: how tuberculosis/consumption + grief + superstition became “vampires,” and how that lore echoes into modern horror. New here? This episode stands alone—jump in for ghosts, UFOs, true crime, folklore, and horror history with plenty of laughs along the way.

The news that Yokohama Tire in Salem is closing its doors on March 18th is a "plant obituary" for our community. For me, it's personal. I started in that facility at 12 years old, and those foundations are exactly what built TW Controls. But as we look at the 2,700 local lives impacted by the economic multiplier effect, we have to ask: Are we waiting for a lifeline from Washington, or are we building our own resilience?I am tired of hearing about the "workforce skills gap" from companies that force their technicians to push a broom the moment the line is running. If your team is "looking busy" instead of practicing on the bench, you aren't managing—you're falling behind. Training isn't a one-and-done checkbox; it's a yearly requirement to stay in demand.

Americans are capable of achieving extraordinary things when they have the freedom and opportunity to do so. This is American Potential, and in this episode, host David From continues the “50 Stars, 50 Stories” series with a February-themed deep dive into the states that joined the Union during this month. David is joined by Ross Connolly, Americans for Prosperity's regional state director for the Northeast, and Stephen Shadegg, AFP's state director in Arizona. Together, they test their knowledge with fast-paced trivia covering Oregon, Massachusetts, and Arizona—touching on everything from the Oregon Trail and Salem's witch trials to the Grand Canyon and Pluto's discovery in Flagstaff. But the conversation doesn't stop at history. Ross and Stephen also share what's happening today in their regions. Stephen discusses Arizona's housing affordability crisis, energy policy, and long-term infrastructure challenges tied to rapid growth. Ross highlights how voters across the Northeast are pushing back against rising costs driven by bad energy and housing policy, and why there's real hope even in states that often get overlooked in national conversations. It's a lively mix of American history, state pride, and forward-looking policy—proof that understanding where we came from can help shape where we're going next.

About This EpisodeWhat if Boston's colonial past held witch trial stories just as gripping as Salem's but almost entirely overlooked? This week, Sarah and Josh sit down with D. Brenton Simons, President Emeritus and former CEO of American Ancestors (New England Historic Genealogical Society), to uncover the witches, criminals, and scandal-makers that Boston's official history left out.D. Brenton Simons spent 18 years leading American Ancestors, one of the world's foremost genealogical organizations with over 500,000 members in 139 countries. He is the author of Witches, Rakes, and Rogues, a collection of true Boston stories spanning 1630 to 1741, and was honored by King Charles III for his contributions to Anglo-American history.Boston had a witchcraft period spanning over a century, and the stories from it look nothing like what popular culture has taught us. Brenton walks us through cases that defy every stereotype, including a wealthy, well-connected woman whose "disagreeable" personality made her a target after her husband's death, an Irish Catholic servant whose foreign language and customs terrified a Puritan community, and women whose only real crime was practicing folk medicine and refusing to be pushed around.The research behind this book took five years and required digging through court records, personal diaries, and archives. The result is a portrait of real people navigating a world where the devil felt as immediate and dangerous as a neighbor's grudge.The woman who appears as a background character in The Scarlet Letter and the real, devastating story behind her nameHow the Goodwin children's afflictions during the Goody Glover case reveal something very human about fear and attentionThe connection between Mercy Short's post-traumatic experiences and the Salem trialsWhy the discovery of a black cat may have saved Boston from a second wave of witch huntingWhat happened to accusations that never became trials, and why those stories matter just as muchFor descendants of Boston and Connecticut witch trial victims, this episode is essential listening. Brenton discusses his research connecting Mary Hale, Winifred Benham Sr., and the Benham family line across generations and colonies. If you have colonial New England ancestry, you may have more connections to these stories than you realize.American Ancestors / New England Historic Genealogical SocietyAmerican Ancestors on YouTubeWitches, Rakes, and Rogues by D.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! PART TWOTucked away in Salem, the Salem Witch Board Museum houses the largest public collection of Ouija boards in the world — and the only museum dedicated entirely to their history. Curated and owned by John Kozik, the collection features roughly 100 talking boards on display at any given time, spanning decades of design, cultural shifts, and public fear.As a founding member of the Talking Board Historical Society, Kozik approaches the Ouija board not as a novelty or a menace, but as a cultural artifact. Many of the boards in the museum come from private collections or donations, each carrying its own story — not of demons or possession, but of how people have interacted with the unknown across generations.The Ouija board's reputation has long been shaped by Hollywood and rumor, casting it as a dangerous portal rather than a product of its time. But stripped down to its materials — wood, cardboard, ink, plastic — the question remains: where does the fear really come from? Is power embedded in the object itself, or does it come from belief, expectation, and human intention?For more information, visit their website at salemwitchboardmuseum.com.#TheGraveTalks #OuijaBoard #SalemWitchBoardMuseum #TalkingBoards #ParanormalHistory #HauntedObjects #OccultHistory #SalemMassachusetts #TrueParanormalLove real ghost stories?

There's nothing fun about the Salem Witch Trials. But they are intriguing! Most of us know a few things about this story, but the details are vague. That is understandable, because no one can fully explain what went wrong in the small village of Salem in 1692, when more than 20 suffered death from the scare of witchcraft! Join Linda Lacour Hobar, author of The Mystery of History, for the full story and theories about what "might" have happened. This 15-minute podcast is an audiobook excerpt from The Mystery of History Volume III.

 Lawmakers are meeting in Salem to discuss and decide the fate of a flurry of bills during Oregon’s short legislative session this year. One of those is a bipartisan bill that would hike the state’s lodging tax at places like campgrounds, hotels and Airbnbs from 1.5% to 2.75%.    The tax increase is expected to raise tens of millions of dollars for wildlife protection, habitat conservation, anti-poaching efforts, combating invasive species and mitigating wildfires. It would also compensate ranchers for cattle killed by wolves.    The bill’s sponsors – Rep. Mark Owens (R-Crane) and Rep. Ken Helm (D-Beaverton)  – join us to share why they support it and why they revived it this year after it died in the final days of last year’s session.

The six-week-long drunken party was thrown by the notoriously rascally Jonathan Bourne Jr. to keep the state Legislature from convening, so it couldn't elect John H. Mitchell to the U.S. Senate. It worked — well, sort of.(For text and pictures, see https://offbeatoregon.com/1201e-bourne-40-day-party-stopped-legislature.html)

Lot's choice to go toward Sodom and Gomorrah quickly brings trouble when Lot and his household are captured during a war between various kings. When Abram hears of his nephew's plight, he organizes his household to come to the rescue, bringing blessing to pagan kings along the way. When Abram returns, the king of Salem, Melchizedek, blesses Abram and receives a gift from the patriarch. Whereas the king of Sodom shows himself wily regarding the spoils of war, Abram shows himself above reproach.  Rev. Mark Squire, pastor at Immanuel Lutheran Church in St. Ansgar, IA, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Genesis 14:1-24.  To learn more about Immanuel in St. Ansgar, visit immanuelsta.org. “In the Beginning” is a series on Sharper Iron that studies Genesis. The first book of Moses sets the stage for God's entire story of salvation. As we learn the beginning of the story, God prepares us to receive the fulfillment of the story: Jesus Christ, the Offspring of the woman who has crushed our enemy's head.  Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org
