It's Monday, July 7, 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 Adam McManus Pakistani Christian girl, kidnapped for two years, escapes A Pakistani Christian girl, who this month escaped the Muslim who kidnapped her, said he forcibly converted her to Islam and repeatedly sexually assaulted her as his so-called “wife,” reports Morning Star News. On the night of May 24, 2023, as her family slept, 14-year-old Muskan Liaqat was kidnapped at gunpoint from her home in Sheikhupura District, by Muhammad Adnan and his father Muhammad Arif. Muskan said, “They took me to their home, where they tortured me and forcibly took my thumb impressions on some papers. I was later told that I had become a Muslim and Adnan was my husband.” A member of the Salvation Army church, Muskan said she was treated as a sex slave. She said, “I was raped and beaten by Adnan … on almost a daily basis. As a result of repeated sexual abuse, I got pregnant in 2024.” Severe torture by Adnan resulted in a miscarriage in the fourth month of her pregnancy. She said, “I used to cry all night and prayed to God to rescue me from this hell, but it looked like my prayers were not reaching Him.” The trauma led her to attempt suicide by cutting her wrist. Judges routinely ignore evidence related to the children's ages, handing them back to kidnappers as their “legal wives.” Thankfully, she got away and is now in a safe house. According to Open Doors, Pakistan, which is 96% Muslim, is the eighth most dangerous country worldwide for Christians. South Korean doctor charged with murder after full-term abortion On July 2nd, a South Korean doctor was arrested and charged with murder following the abortion of a full-term baby last year, reigniting national debate over the country's ambiguous abortion laws and medical ethics, reports LifeSiteNews.com. On June 28, Judge Park Jeong-ho of the Seoul Central District Court approved arrest warrants for the surgeon, identified as Shim, and the facility's director, “Yoon.” Authorities allege the child was born alive and then deliberately left to die, which they say amounts to murder through “willful neglect.” The case dates back to late 2024. Evidence suggests that the baby was alive both before and after the procedure. The abortion was allegedly committed via labor induction – a method that, if resulting in a live birth followed by intentional death, could meet the legal definition of murder under Korean law. The Korean Medical Association condemned the incident, stating: “A fetus at 36 weeks is a baby who could survive well if born, and terminating a pregnancy at this stage is tantamount to murder.” Psalm 139:13-14 says, “For You [God] created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” Trump's Big Beautiful Bill defunded Planned Parenthood Trump's “Big Beautiful Bill,” which he signed into law on Friday, July 4th, defunded Planned Parenthood for a year, reports LifeNews.com. The defunding provision, outlined in Section 44126 of the bill, effectively terminates Medicaid reimbursements to Planned Parenthood for non-abortion services, closing a loophole that has allowed the organization to access federal funds despite the Hyde Amendment's ban on direct taxpayer funding for abortions. Pro-life critics have argued that those Medicaid reimbursements indirectly paid for the abortion giant to kill more babies by abortion. It is the first time that the radical Planned Parenthood abortion business has been defunded. The vote, as we reported on Friday, was 218-214. The new law will redirect hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to community-based, pro-life healthcare providers and away from Planned Parenthood and Big Abortion. Planned Parenthood, which kills over 400,000 babies in abortions annually, received $700 million in taxpayer funds last fiscal year. Death toll in Texas flash floods climbs to 79, 40 remain missing At least 70 people are dead in central Texas after devastating flash floods slammed the Texas Hill Country, with water rescues taking place along the Guadalupe River, which rose rapidly early Friday morning to the height of a two-story building, reports CBS News. (Watch this video to see the rushing water in Center Point, Texas which tears down trees and threatens a bridge.) A dozen are still missing from Camp Mystic in Kerr County, a children's Christian summer camp. 13-year-old Stella Thompson, a camper who survived, talked with the Dallas NBC affiliate. THOMPSON: “You'd see kayaks in trees. It was horrific, because we had no idea. First responders in the water. There were huge trees ripped out of the ground.” Tragically, in a last act of kindness, Richard Eastland, the director of Camp Mystic, died trying to save campers as floodwaters from the Guadalupe River overwhelmed the camp, which is on the banks of the river, reports the San Antonio Express-News. More than 750 girls were at the camp when the flooding struck. The dead include 38 adults and 21 children, with 18 of the adults and four of the children unidentified.  Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott spoke from the heart. ABBOTT: “When Texans face a challenge, we come together, we unite. We will be relentless in going after and ensuring that we locate every single person who's been a victim of this flooding event. We're not going to stop today or tomorrow. We will stop when the job is completed. This is a 24/7 operation, day and night. We will find every one of them.” Dear Lord, Help the First Responders rescue all of the remaining survivors of this horrific flood. Amen.

A 22-year-old woman, who was carried by the raging waters 20 miles from Hunt, Texas to Center Point, survived as she clung to a tree. Carl, who lives along the Guadalupe River, explained what happened to KENS-TV 5. CARL: “True miracle. There's no other way to explain it. “I came up on the deck and she saw me. So, she started to scream out loud. I thought she was in the water going down the river. I finally looked and was able to spot her in the tree. I began to holler back to her. ‘Hey, I see you. We'll get you help. Hang on. Hang on.' Because she was desperate! “After they were able to pluck her out, we brought her into our house and gave her a shower, clothed her because it had stripped all of her clothing off, gave her something to drink, gave her a nap. We called her grandmother in Corpus.” Thankfully, she had no broken bones and only a small wound on the top of her head. Worldview listeners in Colorado and California speak out And finally, two Worldview listeners wrote me at Adam@TheWorldview.com to share what they enjoy about the newscast. Wes Anderson in Grand Junction, Colorado, wrote, “I try to read The Worldview in 5 Minutes transcript every day. I appreciate the Biblical perspective on the news! It's nice to have a news source I can trust!” And Pastor Aaron Hebbard of Remnant Church in Mentone, California, wrote, “Here's what I like: I love the snapshot of the big issues of the day without having to spend precious time chasing various stories.  I treasure the news on the persecuted church; it prompts prayer on behalf of our global brothers and sisters, and sets the stage for the unfathomable things Christ will do with the precious blood of His saints.  I appreciate the occasional call to activism, whether it's a phone call or email to a local politician, or support for a cause, or to join a prayer movement.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, July 7th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

We're exploring not just what hope is, but how it's built, sustained and passed from person to person, community to community. Today, I'm welcoming two leaders whose lives embody this multi-generational understanding of hope: Commissioners Doug and Colleen Riley, territorial leaders of The Salvation Army in the western U.S. The pair met while working at a summer camp, married and in 1995 were commissioned as officers—or pastors—in The Salvation Army. Their connection to ministry in The Salvation goes back four and five generations, respectively, meaning they've witnessed hope in action across decades—from childhood to their early days of service at Portland Moore Street Corps to their leadership today. But their understanding of hope extends beyond their organizational roles. As parents of four sons and leaders during some of our most challenging times—from the pandemic to the recent LA wildfires—they've had to practice hope when circumstances seemed overwhelming. On this episode, we explore how hope is inherited and cultivated, how crisis can become opportunity for hope to flourish, and what it means to lead with hope when entire communities are looking for direction.

New on the More to the Story Podcast for this month 

Is your PlayStation 5 about to break? Probably not, but speculation is increasingly circulating suggesting that the old run of PS5s -- pre-Slim and pre-Pro -- may start running into a 'liquid metal' problem that's causing issues for some players. What does this all mean, from where does this speculation stem, and what (if anything) can be done about it? We discuss in detail. Plus: Death Stranding 2 is out, and thus it's time for us to gush! Then: The other news of the week, including Hellblade II's PS5 release date, rumors of RPG progression systems in Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, PlayStation Plus turns 15, SEGA accidentally leaks a ton of sales data, and more. Finally: Listener inquiries. What's the best 'one-hit wonder' game? With PlayStation: The Concert coming Stateside, do we have any interest in attending? Which studio's three-game run is most impressive, quality-wise? Will you, too, find a Sacred Symbols shirt in your local Goodwill or Salvation Army?

We're exploring what it means to put Hope in Action. And today, I'm excited to welcome a guest who has dedicated his career to understanding hope not just as a feeling, but as a measurable, teachable strength that transforms lives and communities. Dr. Chan Hellman is recognized as one of the world's leading hope scholars, with more than 25 years of research, training and teaching experience. His groundbreaking work has shown that hope isn't just a nice concept—it's a powerful predictor of well-being that can be built intentionally. As the Founding Director of the Hope Research Center at the University of Oklahoma-Tulsa and a professor at the school's Anne & Henry Zarrow School of Social Work, Dr. Hellman has authored over 150 scientific publications and co-authored the bestselling book "Hope Rising: How The Science of Hope Can Change Your Life." In this episode, we explore what hope actually is, how it's different from wishful thinking, and most importantly—how we can build it in ourselves and our communities through intentional action.

Send us a textWhat does it take to rebuild your life when everything is suddenly taken away? Neil Stringer, known as 'The Copy Doctor', takes us on a profound journey from his days as a brass musician in the Salvation Army to becoming a digital nomad copywriter in Vietnam – and then facing the devastating moment when he went completely blind."It was the 16th of May 2020. I remember at the time it was 4:45 in the afternoon. That's when I went blind. As in blackness, as in blind," Neil recounts with remarkable candor. Diagnosed with type 2 diabetes that had damaged his optic nerves, Neil spent eight days in hospital on steroids before returning home unable to work. He lost all his clients and had to rebuild from nothing, writing articles for half a cent per word just to survive.Before this life-altering event, Neil had already lived several fascinating lives – from nearly becoming a professional trumpet player to running substance abuse programs as a clinical psychologist with a PhD. His path to becoming The Copy Doctor emerged from his psychological understanding of human behavior and how to ethically persuade rather than manipulate. This expertise led him to write copy that turned a $37 offer into $42,000 in two weeks and helped clients generate millions in revenue.Throughout the conversation, Neil shares powerful wisdom about the difference between having a profession, a vocation, and a calling. "When you have a calling, you elevate to the top of the chart because it puts a different context behind everything you do," he explains. His insights on gratitude as a foundation for resilience are equally moving: "I always begin by counting my blessings and being grateful for what I have got. And I keep doing that until I stop worrying about what I haven't got."Whether you're facing your own life challenges, seeking to understand the psychology behind effective marketing, or simply drawn to remarkable human stories, Neil's journey will inspire you to find purpose in adversity and to recognize that "it's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice."Tune in next week for more stories of 'Distinction & Genius' from The Good Listening To Show 'Clearing'.

Hope isn't something that happens to you. It's something you create. It's what happens when possibility meets action. Today we're beginning a journey—one that will explore not just what hope is, but how we build it, nurture it and put it into action. Here's the key: Hope isn't just something lucky people have. It's something all of us can build. And the best part is “hope in action” isn't about doing something big. It's about doing something. Because our world is transformed not by great deeds, but by countless individual decisions to step forward. You're not just a spectator in this story. You're a potential catalyst. Different is possible. And it starts with you. EPISODE SHOWNOTES: Read more. BE AFFIRMED. Get the Good Words email series. JOIN THE HOPEFULS. Get inside the group. WHAT'S YOUR CAUSE? Take our quiz.

Merthyr Tydfil is a well-known town in South Wales with a rich history. In the 18th century, it was a small hamlet – just a collection of Welsh-speaking farmsteads dotted along the mountains. But within a hundred years, it became an industrial powerhouse with a booming and multicultural population. In this programme, Delyth Liddell, visits Merthyr to find out how that development affected the local religious communities, and still affects it today. We are guided by local historian, Huw Williams. On our journey, we find out about the Jewish community that flourished in the 1800s, the Salvation Army who sent young women on mission to Merthyr in the late 1800's, and the religious revival of 1904. We also find out about the growth of Islam in Merthyr, and visit a flourishing church.

What happens when churches, governments, and communities work together across differences in opinion for the common good? In this episode, Dr. Walter Kim, President of the National Association of Evangelicals, joins us to talk about how different parts of the evangelical church are responding to shifts in humanitarian aid and funding, and why these varied responses matter. We dig into the Biblical precedent for and history of public-private partnerships, the importance of government support, and how different Christian views of society and culture impact how churches engage with humanitarian work. Dr. Kim brings biblical insight, historical context, and practical wisdom for how the Church can stay grounded in compassion while navigating complexity.

Building on last week's conversation with Daniel Hill, I spoke with David Emerton about his systematic theological approach to ecclesiology. He outlines key distinctions between divine essence and human agency and uses these to frame four models of the church. David proposes a concept he calls "ecclesiological ecclesiology," which reframes how we talk about and live out what it means to be the church—before we jump into doing church.Youtube - https://youtu.be/7M4Gjl-Vtr8Audio - https://andymilleriii.com/media/podcastApple -  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/more-to-the-story-with-dr-andy-miller/id1569988895?uo=4Types of Ecclesiology, Five Theological Approaches - David Emerton If you are interested in learning more about my two video-accompanied courses, Contender: Going Deeper in the Book of Jude andHeaven and Other Destinations: A Biblical Journey Beyond this World , visit courses.andymilleriii.comAnd don't forget about my most recent book, Contender, which is available on Amazon! Five Steps to Deeper Teaching and Preaching - Recently, I updated this PDF document and added a 45-minute teaching video with slides, explaining this tool.

The Salvation Army's Major Migdalia Lavenbein who has been our go-to for years at the Holiday Store and other events is sadly being relocated for her service and we are going to miss her hard work and dedication.....and her antics as well!! She gives a final thank you and goodbye!

Elon Musk apologized for his tweets about President Trump, describing them as going too far. The Connecticut housing bill, passed by both chambers, faces potential veto or special session due to Governor Lamont's concerns about state authority over municipal zoning. The bill includes provisions for affordable housing, parking requirements, and commercial-to-residential conversions. Steve Weir criticized the bill for overreaching local control, while Jason Rojas defended it as necessary for addressing housing shortages. The bill's impact on local communities and potential legislative actions were discussed. Additionally, the conversation touched on local sports updates, including baseball and basketball games, and the impact of immigration on local communities. The meeting discussed various local and national issues. In Los Angeles, police enforced a curfew, leading to arrests and confrontations. Connecticut's Attorney General William Tong criticized President Trump's deployment of the National Guard, calling it illegal. Lawmakers grilled Secretary Pete Hegseth on defense budget plans. Elon Musk regretted his criticisms of Trump. A US postal worker was injured by a pit bull. Early childhood education bills in Connecticut aim to provide no-cost or reduced-cost education for families earning up to $100,000 annually. The World Bank revised down its economic growth forecasts. Hartford's new vacant lot task force aims to transform city spaces. The Connecticut Season Pass offers discounts on various attractions. The Salvation Army's Major Migdalia is being reassigned. She will be deeply missed among the Holiday Store crew and listeners. We wish her the best of luck and ample sun screen.

A delightful chat with Willa, an Australian woman who has made her home in Zürich, Switzerland. A video version of this chat is on YouTube: https://youtu.be/oTsepRFupcc?si=5KGtwaH-N81DALqp Willa's encounter took place five years ago in the Tarragona region of Spain. Early one morning, she took a stroll through her friend's garden and came face to face with some beings, whom she describes as 'forest spirits', sitting in three trees growing inside a spiral of arrangement of rocks. As Willa described: "I saw them, they seemed to be “looking” at me. My impression was they were aware I could see them. The situation...lasted only for about a minute before they seemed to fold in on themselves and disappear." Describing herself as a lifelong 'skeptical person', we discuss how coming into contact with these beings has made a subsequent impact on Willa's life and how she feels about visiting this location in the Tarragona region again, later in the year. We also discuss Willa's call, to aid people like me and you who have become homeless. Here she is volunteering during lockdown in the kitchen of the Pfuusbus in Zürich. If you would like to donate or find out more about the Pfarrer Sieber organisation here's the website: https://www.swsieber.ch/In the UK there are several homelessness charities including Crisis, Shelter and St Mungo's In America: Habitat for Humanity, The Salvation Army and Covenant House.

What does it mean to have a public witness to Jesus Christ? Daniel Hill brings clarity to this question by drawing on the lives of three key abolitionists—David Ruggles, Maria W. Stewart, and William Still—figures often recognized more for their political or philosophical contributions than their spiritual convictions. Hill shows how their Christian faith shaped their public engagement, offering the church a compelling model for faithful presence today.Youtube - https://youtu.be/GlVXYQnv02cAudio - https://andymilleriii.com/media/podcastApple -  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/more-to-the-story-with-dr-andy-miller/id1569988895?uo=4Bearing Witness, What the Church Can Learn from Early Abolitionists - Daniel Lee HillIf you are interested in learning more about my two video-accompanied courses, Contender: Going Deeper in the Book of Jude andHeaven and Other Destinations: A Biblical Journey Beyond this World , visit courses.andymilleriii.comAnd don't forget about my most recent book, Contender, which is available on Amazon! Five Steps to Deeper Teaching and Preaching - Recently, I updated this PDF document and added a 45-minute teaching video with slides, explaining this tool.

“We must have some room to breathe. We need freedom to think and permission to heal. Our relationships are being starved to death by velocity.” — Dr. Richard Swenson, The Overload SyndromeIn our fast-paced, always-on world, these words ring true. We're overloaded—physically, emotionally, mentally, and financially. But what if the antidote to our exhaustion isn't doing more, but doing less? Today, let's look at rest from a biblical perspective.What Is Margin?Margin is the “room to breathe” that Dr. Swenson describes. It's the space between our load and our limits, which allows us to pause before we break.Too often, we end the day with nothing left—no time, energy, or money. Then the next day starts…full throttle again.That kind of lifestyle comes at a cost. The Sleep Foundation reports that nearly half of Americans experience trouble sleeping—a third of them get less than seven hours of sleep a night. Chronic sleep deprivation can lead to serious (and expensive) health problems like anxiety, heart disease, and diabetes. It also undermines our relationships and decision-making.The truth? Rest is not a luxury. It's wisdom.God Created RestGod rested on the seventh day of Creation—not because He needed to, but because His work was complete. He blessed that rest and called it holy (Genesis 2:3).Later, He enshrined the Sabbath in the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:8-11). Why? Because He knows our tendency to keep pushing ourselves, and He lovingly tells us to stop. As pastor and author Rich Villodas says:“God gives us Sabbath—he gives us rest—as a gift to remind us that our standing in Christ is not based on our works. When we rest, we're reminded: I'm not producing anything…and God still loves me.”Margin in a Work-Obsessed WorldTechnology allows us to work from anywhere, at any time. But just because we can doesn't mean we should. Rest gives us the strength and focus to do our work “as unto the Lord” (Colossians 3:23).Working late nights and skipping vacations might seem productive, but over time, they damage what matters most—our health, our relationships, and our spiritual lives.Rest doesn't mean avoiding work. It means working wisely and worshipfully—and stepping away when it's time to refuel.The Difference Between Rest and LazinessNow, let's be clear: Rest is not laziness.Laziness is neglecting what we're called to do. It violates God's design for us to work, serve, and create. Paul warned the Thessalonians to “warn those who are idle and disruptive” (1 Thess. 5:14), and added in 2 Thessalonians 3:11 that idleness often masks itself as busyness.Proverbs 31 praises the noble woman who works diligently. Verse 27 says she “does not eat the bread of idleness.” Laziness can show up subtly, like scrolling endlessly or shopping to avoid responsibility.Proverbs 24:30–31 tells of a neglected field, overgrown and crumbling, due to a lack of care. That's what happens when laziness takes root. But there's hope.Rest Is a Gift of GraceWhether you're burned out or stuck in patterns of procrastination, God's grace meets you where you are. Jesus doesn't offer a tighter schedule—He offers a lighter burden.“Come to me, all who are weary and burdened,” Jesus says, “and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28)Rest isn't something you earn. It's something you receive. So step into the rhythm of grace, not guilt. Your soul—and your stewardship—depends on it.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My son is 26, and last year he was able to start a 401(k) with his job. I want to get him a Roth IRA and start with $200 to get something going. Is that a good idea?I'm 87 years old. If all my assets have beneficiaries designated, is there any reason to have probate, or is there a maximum dollar amount that requires probate, so I would have to get a trust?I pay my bills and save as much as I can. Is it okay for me to spend $10 at the Salvation Army to get a new church dress? I don't make much money, but I get paid every two weeks with a decent check.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)The Overload Syndrome: Learning to Live Within Your Limits by Dr. Richard A.

Joe Rigney's recent work, The Sin of Empathy, explores how abuse can occur when we neglect the reality of objective truth in our efforts to sympathize with others. I enjoyed this conversation with Joe and appreciate the way he challenges us to think more deeply about how words like empathy are used in our culture. Toward the end of the podcast, Joe and I have a frank discussion about women in ministry—a conversation I believe was mutually beneficial.Youtube - https://youtu.be/JA-Jlc4nbFoAudio - https://andymilleriii.com/media/podcastApple -  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/more-to-the-story-with-dr-andy-miller/id1569988895?uo=4The Sin of Empathy: How Morality Fell Apart – Joe RigneyIf you are interested in learning more about my two video-accompanied courses, Contender: Going Deeper in the Book of Jude andHeaven and Other Destinations: A Biblical Journey Beyond this World , visit courses.andymilleriii.comAnd don't forget about my most recent book, Contender, which is available on Amazon! Five Steps to Deeper Teaching and Preaching - Recently, I updated this PDF document and added a 45-minute teaching video with slides, explaining this tool.

The Salvation Army says sanctions on beneficiaries which force people to find volunteer work for a few hours a week isn't the best use of resources. New 'non-financial' sanctions are set to come into force for beneficiaries who don't meet their obligations - including having part of their weekly benefit put on a payment card or finding volunteer work for at least 5 hours a week. But Salvation Army principal social policy analyst Paul Barber doesn't believe that's the right way to go for people who are struggling to find work. "There are already a lot of sanctions available... we're talking about a relatively small group of people within the total number of people who are receiving welfare."

I had a blast talking with Leah Payne about her research—actually, her extensive research—on the phenomenon of contemporary Christian music. Those who grew up in 1990s Christian culture will find plenty in her study that resonates with their own experiences. That was certainly true for me as I read Leah's book and spoke with her for this podcast. We had a great time in our conversation, taking a trip down memory lane and reflecting on the theological tension between ministering to Christian audiences and the inevitable challenges of operating within a commercial industry.Youtube - https://youtu.be/ObhWJx52h_MAudio - https://andymilleriii.com/media/podcastApple -  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/more-to-the-story-with-dr-andy-miller/id1569988895?uo=4Check out her book here: God Gave Rock and Roll to You: A History of Contemporary Christian Music – Leah PayneIf you are interested in learning more about my two video-accompanied courses, Contender: Going Deeper in the Book of Jude andHeaven and Other Destinations: A Biblical Journey Beyond this World , visit courses.andymilleriii.comAnd don't forget about my most recent book, Contender, which is available on Amazon! Five Steps to Deeper Teaching and Preaching - Recently, I updated this PDF document and added a 45-minute teaching video with slides, explaining this tool.

Out of work 18 to 19 year olds may be forced to rely on mum and dad for financial support with the government planning to effectively means test parents of unemployed teenagers before allowing young people to collect a benefit. From July 2027 there will be a parental assistance test for job seekers and emergency benefits. The government said it's a human tragedy that people under 25 on jobseeker support will spend an average of 18 years on the benefit over their lifetimes. The Salvation Army's Director of Social Policy Bonnie Robinson spoke to Lisa Owen.

It is much more than bell ringing and disaster relief, this couple upholds the promise to do the most good with the resources provided by The Salvation Army. Listen as this Nebraska native, Kenyon, talks about his story as a foster youth, how his mother needed and used the Salvation Army to bring their family back together, how the Salvation Army gave them the opportunity to have a Christmas, how the couple met through their faith and continue to serve the community through this valuable resource and the structure and military influence the Salvation Army uses as a framework for their processing.

SALVATION ARMY LT. SEAN PEASE TRT: 13:30 **MAY 10 MOTHER'S DAY TEA/ANNUAL DINNER **MAY 16-OPEN HOUSE

On today's program, Dr. Michael Brown of The Line of Fire was the subject of an independent investigation late last year. The findings of that report have now been released, allegedly finding that Brown DID engage in misconduct with two women who were not his wife. We'll have details. And, is Bob Jones University facing closure? The school's president says no—but alumni aren't so sure. We'll take a closer look. Plus, The Salvation Army in Denver is embroiled in protests, violence, and a failed $3 million bid to provide housing to the city's homeless population. The ministry says the city is using it as a ‘scapegoat' even as it faces an overwhelming homelessness crisis. But first, a female victim has joined the fray in suing Kanakuk Kamps for negligence after she was abused by former staffer Peter Newman when she was just 9 years old.

Natasha: And I'm Natasha Cowden, coming to you from Denver, Colorado, and we'd like to welcome you to the MinistryWatch podcast. Warren: On today's program, Dr. Michael Brown of The Line of Fire was the subject of an independent investigation late last year. The findings of that report have now been released, allegedly finding that Brown DID engage in misconduct with two women who were not his wife. We'll have details. And, is Bob Jones University facing closure? The school's president says no—but alumni aren't so sure. We'll take a closer look. Plus, The Salvation Army in Denver is embroiled in protests, violence, and a failed $3 million bid to provide housing to the city's homeless population. The ministry says the city is using it as a ‘scapegoat' even as it faces an overwhelming homelessness crisis. Natasha: But first, a female victim has joined the fray in suing Kanakuk Kamps for negligence after she was abused by former staffer Peter Newman when she was just 9 years old.

The plaintiff alleges she was sexually molested by Peter Newman in 2008 when she was just 9 years old and attending K-Kountry, one of the summer camp programs for 6- to 11-year-old children. Natasha: I know these cases are extremely sensitive for the victims but why didn't she bring the lawsuit sooner? Warren: According to the lawsuit, Doe's memory of the events was repressed until December 2024 when she regained the memories of abuse and began to question Kanakuk's conduct and responsibility for Newman's actions. Missouri's law allows for a pause of the statute of limitations related to childhood sexual abuse when memory of the abuse was repressed. Natasha: Our next story brings to light more unfortunate news Warren: An independent investigation into sexual misconduct allegations against Dr. Michael Brown of The Line of Fire “concluded that Brown's actions toward the two females were inappropriate and unacceptable for his leadership position within the ministry.” Brown was accused of sexual misconduct by crossing physical boundaries with a 21-year-old woman,
