As human beings, it is tempting to try to find our joy in temporary experiences and worldly things more than we find our joy and pleasure in Christ, and this is certainly not a battle that leaders are immune to. Join Dr. D.J. Horton and Dr. Albert Mohler, the president of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, for a conversation on dealing with the sin of seeking superficial pleasures or possessions over being fulfilled and satisfied in the Savior.

Compromising God's standard for holiness in the areas of sex, sexual desire, and sexual purity is a difficult sin to attack because of the personal and private nature of most sexual sin. This is why leaders must intensify their diligence and transparency. Join Dr. D.J. Horton and guest Dr. Daniel Akin, president of the Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, for a candid conversation about proactively battling this deadly sin.

Welcome to the Center for Baptist Leadership podcast, hosted by William Wolfe. Our mission is to cultivate courageous and biblical Baptist leadership for the 21st century. We aim to revitalize the Southern Baptist Convention from within, defend it from those who seek its destruction, and serve as a better Baptist voice in the public square. #CBLPodcast #CenterforBaptistLeadership #SBC #SouthernBaptistConvention #Baptist #Christian #True #Biblical #Leadership The new Center for Baptist Leadership podcast tackles the major theological, cultural, and political issues facing American Christians and Baptists today. Because the Southern Baptist Convention is one of America's largest and most important Christian institutions, it's absolutely critical that it does not become liberal or go woke. To prevent this, we aim to offer biblically grounded solutions to help revitalize the SBC for the 21st Century. The podcast will feature interviews with important voices from the SBC and American evangelicalism, addressing topics of interest and concern to all American Christians who refuse to compromise under the increasing pressure of our secular and anti- Christian age. We believe that revival in America begins with the renewal of the SBC. The time to fight for our Christian denominations is now, and CBL is here to lead the way.

An Assessment of Key 5G-IoT Ecosystem Developments Including 5G Sustainability Market Shapers, Top Sustainability Suppliers, and Vodafone Microsoft GenAI Alliance In this episode of The 5G Factor, our series that focuses on all things 5G, the IoT, and the ecosystem as a whole, I'm joined by my colleague and fellow analyst, Todd R Weiss, for a look at the top 5G developments and what's going on that caught our eye including a review of the top market shapers in the 5G sustainability realm, why we see Ciena, Cisco, Ericsson, Juniper, and Nokia offer the mobile network portfolios that fulfill the topmost 5G sustainability objectives, and how the new Vodafone Microsoft alliance focused on generative AI, cloud, and digital services can improve Vodafone's customer experience and sustainability profile.  Our conversation focused on: 5G Sustainability Market Shapers. 5G network equipment providers (NEPs) are prioritizing the fulfillment of their organization-wide sustainability goals. NEPs are making tangible, measurable progress, including attaining science-based targets (SBTs) and developing ways to reduce waste and responsibly managing the lifecycle of their products. We assess how mobile ecosystem suppliers are embedding energy efficiency advances in product design and portfolio development across silicon, software, and systems from inception and throughout the entire lifecycle management in full alignment with energy orchestration and green operations. Ring of Honor: Top 5G Sustainability NEPs. We identified and reviewed what we believe are the top five network equipment provider 5G sustainability portfolios across the mobile ecosystem today, noting why the players are selected based on our analytical perspective, their ability meeting the top sustainability strategy goals and capabilities, as well as their ecosystem-wide influence in powering ecosystem cooperation and support. The top players who made our Ring of Honor include Ciena, Cisco, Ericsson, Juniper, and Nokia.  Vodafone and Microsoft - New Ten-Year Alliance Spotlights GenAI: Vodafone and Microsoft formed a ten-year strategic alliance with the topmost objectives of transforming Vodafone's customer experience using Microsoft's generative AI acumen, hyperscale Vodafone's managed IoT connectivity platform, develop new digital and financial services for businesses - especially small/medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across Europe and Africa - and overhaul Vodafone's global data center cloud strategy. Vodafone will invest $1.5 billion over the next 10 years in cloud and customer-focused AI services developed in concurrence with Microsoft. We examine why the new Vodafone and Microsoft alliance can broaden their channel influence across the digital ecosystems of Europe and Africa, especially across the opportunity-rich SME realm by using generative AI and hybrid cloud flexibility to uplift the customer experience and improve energy efficiency and sustainability performance across mobile networks, especially within data center environments. Now the partnership can demonstrate the full ecosystem benefits that are emerging from tighter collaboration between telcos and hyperscalers.
