Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is about to meet US President Donald Trump, and he's got quite the wish list. The visit comes at a sensitive moment. On the surface, it's a diplomatic catch-up between two long-time political allies. But underneath, the Hungarian leader has two clear goals, first, to secure an exemption from US sanctions on Russian oil, and second, to persuade Trump to host another summit with Vladimir Putin, ideally in Budapest.Join us on our journey through the events that shape the European continent and the European Union.Production: By Europod, in co production with Sphera Network.Follow us on:LinkedInInstagram Hosted on Acast.

In this week's Parshas Vayera episode, Reb Asaf Aharon Prisman shares a revolutionary insight from Rav Yitzchak Svei that transforms how we understand both Sarah's test and the spiritual mechanics of Ayin Hara (the evil eye). The key detail everyone misses: Ishmael was hiding in the background, listening to the angel's promise.Discover why Sarah's "laugh" was actually strategic deception, how Ayin Hara really works (it triggers divine judgment by making Hashem ask "Does this person deserve what they have?"), and the one phrase that creates an impenetrable shield: acknowledging that everything we have is undeserved chesed from Hashem.This isn't about superstition—it's about understanding the spiritual cause-and-effect that governs blessing and protection. Learn how humility becomes armor, why feeling deserving is spiritually dangerous, and how the Arizal's teachings on Ayin Hara reveal a life-changing approach to gratitude.Prism of Torah brings deep yeshiva-style Torah learning with practical application for modern Jewish life. Each week, Rabbi Asaf explores the weekly parsha through unconventional questions that reveal transformative insights.

Main Idea: God himself becomes the shield of those who trust him.
Victory in spiritual warfare requires three keys: understanding the power of Jesus' blood, speaking God's Word, and living a crucified life. When we walk in humility, God's grace becomes a shield that turns impossible situations in our favor. Prepare for war with personal and corporate prayer.

The Shield of Faith Series: Suited Up - The Armor of God (Week 5 of 7) Scripture: Ephesians 6:16 Summary When Paul describes the armor of God, he says "above all, taking the shield of faith." That phrase alone tells us how critical this piece of armor is—it's our primary defense in spiritual warfare. In Roman warfare, soldiers carried large rectangular shields (scutum)—about 4 feet tall and 2.5 feet wide, made of wood covered with leather. This shield protected the soldier's entire body and could interlock with other shields to form a defensive wall. Most critically, when soaked in water, it could extinguish flaming arrows that enemies would shoot to create panic and break battle lines. That's the picture Paul gives us. The enemy shoots fiery darts—attacks designed to ignite fear, doubt, and destruction. But the shield of faith, when properly used, extinguishes every single one. Key Points: 1. Faith Is Active Trust in God's Character and Promises Faith is not positive thinking, "believing hard enough," or blind optimism. Biblical faith is active trust in God's character and promises based on what He has revealed in His Word. Hebrews 11:1 defines it: "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Faith has substance and evidence—it's not vague spirituality but confident trust in a God who has proven Himself faithful. The key distinction: Positive thinking says: "Everything will work out fine" (based on nothing) Biblical faith says: "God works all things together for good for those who love Him" (based on Romans 8:28) Faith is only as strong as its object. You can have great faith in a weak foundation and still fall. Or you can have small faith in a strong foundation and stand firm. It's not the size of your faith that matters—it's the size of your God. Jesus said even faith as small as a mustard seed can move mountains (Matthew 17:20). Why? Because even tiny faith in an infinite God is powerful. What does faith trust? God's Character - Who He is: faithful, good, sovereign, loving, just, wise, powerful God's Promises - What He has said in Scripture God's Word - The foundation for knowing both His character and promises When attacks come, you don't lift the shield by "believing harder." You lift it by actively trusting what you know to be true about God. 2. The Enemy's Fiery Darts Are Designed to Destroy Your Faith In ancient warfare, fiery darts were devastating weapons. Archers would wrap arrow tips in cloth, soak them in pitch or oil, light them on fire, and shoot them at enemy forces. These arrows weren't just designed to injure—they were designed to ignite, spread panic, and create chaos. That's exactly how Satan's attacks work. He shoots multiple fiery darts designed to ignite fear, doubt, and spiritual destruction. What are these fiery darts? Specific examples: Doubt - "Did God really say that? Can you trust His promises? Where is He now?" Temptation - "You can't resist this. You've failed before. Just give in." Accusation - "You're not really saved. Look at your sin. God couldn't accept you." Discouragement - "Nothing's working. God doesn't hear your prayers. Give up." Fear - "You're going to lose everything. This situation is hopeless." Comparison - "Everyone else has it better. God must not care about you." Bitterness - "You have every right to be angry. They don't deserve forgiveness." Notice the pattern: Every fiery dart is designed to make you question God's character or doubt His promises. Satan's goal isn't just to make you sin—it's to destroy your faith. If he can get you to stop trusting God, everything else crumbles. Here's what makes these darts "fiery"—they don't just hit you; they ignite ongoing damage. One moment of doubt can spiral into days of spiritual paralysis. One temptation can become a consuming pattern. One accusation can create crushing guilt that destroys your effectiveness. But the good news: The shield of faith doesn't just deflect these darts—it extinguishes them. How faith extinguishes specific darts: When doubt comes: "I will trust in the Lord with all my heart" (Proverbs 3:5-6) When temptation attacks: "God is faithful and will provide a way of escape" (1 Corinthians 10:13) When accusation hits: "There is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus" (Romans 8:1) When discouragement weighs you down: "Those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength" (Isaiah 40:31) You extinguish the fiery dart by lifting the shield—actively trusting a specific truth about God. 3. You Must Actively Lift the Shield to Extinguish the Darts Many Christians have the shield but don't lift it. Paul says "taking the shield of faith"—that's active. You must pick it up, position it, and use it. Faith isn't passive. It's not "Well, I believe God exists, so I'm covered." It's active trust that responds to specific attacks with specific truths about God. What actively lifting the shield looks like: Step 1: RECOGNIZE THE ATTACK You can't defend against an attack you don't see coming. When thoughts of doubt, temptation, accusation, or fear hit—recognize them as spiritual attacks, not just random thoughts. James 4:7 says, "Resist the devil and he will flee." You can't resist what you don't recognize. Step 2: RESPOND WITH TRUTH This is where you lift the shield. Immediately respond with specific biblical truth about God. Don't argue with the dart or trust your feelings. Lift the shield—speak God's truth. Jesus modeled this in Matthew 4: "It is written..." Three attacks, three responses from Scripture. Step 3: REPEAT AS NECESSARY The enemy doesn't shoot just once. He keeps firing. So you keep lifting the shield. Every time an attack comes, respond with faith—active trust in God's character and promises. Sometimes you'll lift the shield multiple times in one day. That's not weak faith—that's what warfare looks like. Practical example: You're struggling with financial fear. The enemy shoots: "You're going to lose everything. God isn't going to provide." Lift the shield: "My God shall supply all my needs according to His riches in glory" (Philippians 4:19). I choose to trust His faithfulness over my fear. The dart comes again: "But look at your bank account." Lift the shield again: "God has never failed me. He fed Israel in the wilderness. He will provide for me. I trust His character, not my circumstances." As you repeatedly lift the shield of faith, the fiery dart is extinguished. The fear loses its power. Not because you "believed harder," but because you actively trusted specific truths about God. The Bottom Line: The shield of faith is your primary defense because it protects against the enemy's primary attack—destroying your trust in God. Faith is active trust in God's character and promises. The enemy shoots fiery darts designed to ignite doubt and fear. You must lift the shield actively by recognizing attacks, responding with truth, and repeating as necessary. Above all, take the shield of faith—it will extinguish every fiery dart the enemy shoots at you.

We invite you this week to focus on understanding our identity in Christ as we engage in spiritual battle, highlighting the practical meaning and Old Testament roots of the armor God equips us with. Based on Ephesians 6:13-17, let's consider our identity and readiness in spiritual battle! We invite you to consider purchasing the accompanying workbook here: https://www.gospelspice.com/identity Context: Identity in the Midst of Battle The Christian life necessarily involves a spiritual battle. The Apostle Paul calls believers to “stand”—not in our own strength, but grounded in our new identity in Christ. Paul's instruction to put on the “full armor of God” isn't new; its roots run deep in the Old Testament, with key imagery borrowed from books like Isaiah and Deuteronomy. In Isaiah 11:5 and 59:17, righteousness, faithfulness, and salvation appear as God's own armor. This armor is now given to us, His adopted children, not as a child's imitation set but as the genuine armor of our commander. Why the Armor Fits—Old and New Testament Connections Paul isn't inventing something new for the church in Ephesians. The same armor God Himself wears in Isaiah—righteousness as a breastplate, salvation as a helmet—is now available to every believer, thanks to our adoption in Christ. In God's army, the commander and soldiers wear the same “colors”—we share in God's strength and righteousness. The armor is also prophetic: Isaiah 59 speaks of the coming of the Messiah like a rushing stream (an echo of Pentecost) and describes how God's Spirit will seal and empower His people. This sealing (see Ephesians 1:13) corresponds with being clothed in God's armor. Seven Elements of the Armor While many list six pieces, Ephesians points to seven, symbolizing fullness and perfection: Belt of Truth: Truth is both light and freedom. It's the foundation that supports all other pieces, anchoring our identity in what God has said and done, not our own perception or the world's lies. Breastplate of Righteousness: This isn't self-righteousness but Christ's righteousness. It's described as a “heart protector,” guarding us against accusations—whether from the enemy or our own self-doubt. Standing in Christ's righteousness, not our own, keeps us from the traps of pride or despair. Shoes of the Gospel of Peace: These boots provide both stability (standing firm) and mobility (readiness to move). They symbolize preparation and the peace rooted in the gospel, enabling us to stand and advance as one body with other believers. Shield of Faith Helmet of Salvation Sword of the Spirit (the Word of God) Prayer—the element that undergirds and animates all the others, keeping us connected to God and alert in the battle. Application: Standing Ready God calls us to “put on” and “take up” these elements daily—not hastily when the enemy attacks, but as preparation for victorious living. The Christian walk is not passive; it's a team endeavor, fought best in community, by truthfully embracing our identity and actively trusting God's provision. The full armor of God is a gift of grace, perfectly suited for each believer, grounding us in truth, righteousness, and peace, and continually energized by prayer. This is how we stand firm and advance in the spiritual battle, secure in our identity as children of God. ----- IDENTITY IN THE BATTLE WORKBOOK ------ You have the option to go beyond listening to this series, and to participate actively.

Eric and Eliot discuss appeasement and the striking similarities between Putin's recent demands and Hitler's insistence that the Czechs surrender the heavily fortified Sudetenland. They then turn to the latest idiocy coming from the administration, including Trump's demolition of the East Wing, the Pentagon's new exclusively right-wing press corps, and the live-fire Marine exercise that sent ordnance onto I-5 in California during a salute to Pete Hegseth and JD Vance. They also examine Putin's phone call with Trump and the situation in Ukraine, along with Trump's accelerating campaign of regime change in Venezuela. They end the week's conversation with thoughts on the No Kings protests and the daunting prospects for a sustained ceasefire in Gaza.

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today's episode for October 24th, 2025, your host Hunter takes us through another inspiring day in our journey through the Bible. We begin with the story of Job—hearing Eliphaz's second response and wrestling with the questions of suffering, justice, and the nature of God. Then, we move into the Book of Acts, chapters 19 and 20, where we follow Paul's powerful ministry in Ephesus, witness miracles, confrontations with false teachers, public upheaval, and ultimately Paul's heartfelt farewell to church leaders he loves deeply. Hunter reflects on Paul's last message to the Ephesians—a message centered on God's grace, encouraging us to trust not in our own efforts, but in Christ alone. In the midst of life's chaos and busyness, Hunter invites us to ground ourselves in the peace and love of God, joining together in prayer and finding strength in the truth that we are deeply loved. Whether you're starting your day or looking for a moment of quiet, today's episode is all about embracing God's comfort, direction, and unfailing grace. Let's dive in together and draw closer to the heart of God. TODAY'S DEVOTION: I'm going to trust you. We hear Paul in Acts 20 saying farewell to a church that was dear to him, to people he had spent years with, nurturing, living among, pouring out his life for. He tells them this is his final message, entrusting them not to rules or traditions or a complicated system of religious effort, but to the message of God's grace—grace that builds us up and gives us what we need. “And now I entrust you to God and the message of his grace that is able to build you up and give you an inheritance with all those who have been set apart for himself.” This isn't just any message. It's the only message Paul gives. It's the good news that what we need most—life, forgiveness, inheritance, a way forward—comes to us through Christ alone. We so easily twist this message, turning our attention away from Jesus and onto ourselves—our striving, our trying, our religious observance—as if we could earn or construct what has already been given. But grace is not about trying harder, hoping we measure up or wondering if we've done enough. Grace is about resting, trusting, and participating in the life of Christ, knowing that he is enough to make us new, equip us for all of life, and bring us into the fullness of God's love. Paul's final charge is simple: build your life on this message. Trust that the work is done, that Christ is enough. Step into his grace, the only ground safe enough and strong enough for our joy, our hope, and our peace. That's a prayer I have for my own soul. That's a prayer I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that's a prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Almighty and ever loving God, you have brought us to the light of a new morning. Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of your Holy Spirit that we may walk this day in peace. Guard our steps from temptation. Shield us from the weight of fear and shame, and lead us deeper into the joy of your presence, through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. O Christ, light of the nations, shine in every place where shadows dwell. Call the scattered home. Heal the wounds of division and gather all people into the communion of your grace. May the knowledge of the Lord cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. Amen. And our Lord make my hands ready And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ. Amen.

With the Supporters' Shield landing just out of their reach, FC Cincinnati turns the page and walks the treacherous path to the MLS Cup. The first obstacle is, unfortunately, one they have had trouble climbing. The "Hell Is Real" Derby again takes place in the postseason, but this one requires two wins to advance. The Orange & Blue take on Columbus Crew in the first round, the first matchup taking place at home on Monday. Columbus had the upper hand at TQL Stadium this season, but that was over three months ago. Both teams have made it to the playoffs, but while Cincinnati has managed to stay above water, the Crew have been decimated by the injury bug that hit FCC hard last year. We ask Ty Fisher from Massive Report about the hardships the Crew have endured, but also about what could work against Cincinnati. Will Diego Rossi's return be enough of a spark to supercharge the offense? Has Daniel Gazdag been a bust, or is his just lying in wait? Who takes this best-of-three series in the end (and will Geoff stop predicting disasters)? Tune in and trade threads with us! #MLS #FCCincinnati #soccer Become a Patron!
