Misha Glenny delves in to the In Our Time archive to select ten episodes for listeners to revisit. His fifth choice, first released in May 2024, is the Empress Dowager Cixi, the woman who, for almost fifty years, was the most powerful figure in the Chinese court. Cixi (1835-1908) started out at court as one of the Emperor's many concubines, yet was the only one who gave him a son to succeed him and who also possessed great political skill and ambition. When their son became emperor he was still a young child and Cixi ruled first through him and then, following his death, through another child emperor. This was a time of rapid change in China, when western powers and Japan humiliated the forces of the Qing empire time after time, and Cixi had the chance to push forward the modernising reforms the country needed to thrive. However, when she found those reforms conflicted with her own interests or those of the Qing dynasty, she was arguably obstructive or too slow to act and she has been personally blamed for some of those many humiliations even when the fault lay elsewhere.WithYangwen Zheng Professor of Chinese History at the University of ManchesterRana Mitter The S.T.

The Song ends where Genesis began, under a tree in a garden with two people who are not ashamed. Solomon points us to Revelation 22, Eden restored, and the New Heavens and the New Earth. Love is as strong as death, Solomon writes, and it is the flame of the LORD Himself, which many waters cannot quench. Then brothers appear, worrying over a little sister too young to be spoken for, and they decide that if she is a wall, meaning she has kept herself pure, they will crown her in silver, and if she is a door, meaning she has not, they will board her up in cedar and put a stop to it. Faithfulness is not only a promise between husband and wife, but also the call to every Christian to be loyal to Christ and Him alone. The Rev. Donald Stein, pastor of St. Andrews Lutheran Church in Rockton, IL, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Song of Solomon 8:1-14. To learn more about St. Andrews Lutheran, visit standrewrockton.com. The Song of Solomon is a book of love poetry, a bride and her bridegroom singing to each other across eight chapters. God's people have sung it since Solomon's day, and Jewish congregations still read it at Passover. The Church has heard in it the voice of Christ and His bride, and Luther quoted the Song in The Freedom of a Christian to describe what happens when Christ takes a sinner as His own. Paul was working the same ground in Ephesians five, where he set marriage beside Christ and the Church and called it a great mystery. This series works through the whole book verse by verse, from the kiss in chapter one to the seal on the heart in chapter eight. We hear what it says about the body, about desire, and about the marriage God instituted in the garden. We also ask where Christ is in it, since the Church has long heard in these songs the voice of the Bridegroom who gave His life for His bride. Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

Solomon describes his bride, beginning at her feet and moving up. He describes her "belly like a heap of wheat encircled with lilies," and her "neck like an ivory tower" and "nose like the tower of Lebanon." The comparisons sound strange to us. In Solomon's mouth, however, they are stately and reminiscent of a kingdom at peace. She answers him: "I am my beloved's, and his desire is for me." That word for desire appears twice more in Scripture, both times in Genesis, both a curse. Does this point us to the reversal of the curse of Eden through the Church's marriage to Christ? The Rev. James Peterson, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church in Curtis, NE, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Song of Solomon 7:1-13. To learn more about St. John Lutheran in Curtis, visit facebook.com/stjohncurtis. The Song of Solomon is a book of love poetry, a bride and her bridegroom singing to each other across eight chapters. God's people have sung it since Solomon's day, and Jewish congregations still read it at Passover. The Church has heard in it the voice of Christ and His bride, and Luther quoted the Song in The Freedom of a Christian to describe what happens when Christ takes a sinner as His own.

The Books of Samuel constitute one of the most sweeping, psychologically acute, and theologically profound epics in the biblical canon. Originally a single, continuous scroll, this two-part narrative charts the watershed transition of Israel from a fractured tribal confederacy into an established kingdom, laying the covenantal groundwork for the messianic hope that spans all of redemptive history. The Prophet and the Transition of Power The narrative bears the name of Samuel (שְׁמוּאֵל), whose name means "Heard of God" or "Name of God." Born in answer to Hannah's desperate prayer, Samuel bridges two distinct eras: he is the last of the Judges and the first of the great prophets to stand alongside the throne. Through his voice, the text frames the establishment of human monarchy not merely as a political evolution, but as a profound theological crisis. When the elders of Israel demand a king to be "like all the nations," Samuel warns them of the imperial tyranny that human rule inevitably brings. Yet, the LORD grants their request while subordinating the crown to the prophetic word, establishing that Israel's true Sovereign remains Yahweh alone. The Rise and Fall of Two Anointed Kings The drama unfolds along the stark contrast between two anointed leaders: Saul: The king chosen by outward stature and popular demand. Saul begins with military promise but descends into spiritual compromise, self-justification, and tragic paranoia, demonstrating the bankruptcy of a kingdom built on human autonomy. David: The youngest shepherd boy chosen for what lies within the heart. Anointed in obscurity, tested in the wilderness as a hunted exile, David ascends to unite the tribes and establish Jerusalem as the city of the Great King. Yet Samuel offers no sanitized hagiography. The text presents David in all his unvarnished complexity, capturing both the sublime heights of his devotion and the devastating catastrophe of his sin with Bathsheba, which fractures his family and his realm under divine judgment. The Song of Hannah and the Davidic Promise The theological engine of the entire narrative is announced at the very beginning in the Song of Hannah (1 Samuel 2). Hannah sings of a cosmic reversal: the LORD breaks the bows of the mighty, exalts the humble, and brings the proud down to Sheol. This theme of radical reversal culminates in the pivotal covenant of 2 Samuel 7. When David desires to build a house (a temple) for God, the LORD reverses the offer, promising instead to build David a "house" (an everlasting dynasty): "Your house and your kingdom shall be made sure forever before me. Your throne shall be established forever." Here, amidst the shadows of Israel's early monarchy, the horizon expands toward the eternal King. The ultimate fulfillment of the Davidic line points past Solomon and the ruins of earthly Jerusalem to the true Son of David, King Jesus, whose kingdom knows no end, and who reigns not by coercion, but through the triumph of self-giving grace.
The Morning Devotional Season 11 | Edition 79 Psalm 120 Providence Presbyterian Church Evansville, IN Pastor's Website: https://theparchment.net/ This devotional explores Psalm 120, a Song of Ascents that contrasts the pursuit of peace with the reality of spiritual warfare. The speaker highlights how the psalmist cries out to God in distress from deceitful tongues and hostile environments, finding deliverance through divine intervention. This text serves as a profound reflection on the ministry of Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace, who endured similar scorn and mockery while offering reconciliation to a hostile world. Believers are encouraged to recognize that attacks for the sake of the gospel are ultimately directed at Christ himself, who promises vindication. The message concludes with an exhortation to pray for enemies and trust in God's justice rather than seeking personal revenge.
The Morning Devotional Season 11 | Edition 79 September 2, 2026 Psalm 120 This devotional explores Psalm 120, a Song of Ascents that contrasts the pursuit of peace with the reality of spiritual warfare. The speaker highlights how the psalmist cries out to God in distress from deceitful tongues and hostile environments, finding deliverance through divine intervention. The message connects this ancient text to the ministry of Jesus Christ, who endured similar scorn while offering reconciliation to a world at enmity with God. Believers are encouraged to trust in Jehovah's response during their own trials, recognizing that attacks on Christians are ultimately directed at Christ Himself. The sermon concludes by affirming God's sovereignty and calling believers to pray for enemies rather than seeking personal vengeance.

Piper Jean is the sweetest girl you can ever meet but don't let that fool you—she went HARD in the streets for years and also made secular street music but it wasn't until one of her best friends gave their life to Christ and separated themselves from Piper that really made it hit close to home for her. She was exposed to Christ in the past, but she didn't know it could be real for her too until she finally gave God a shot. She hasn't looked back since. From glorifying drugs, weapons, and street culture to now glorifying Jesus, Piper has completely turned her life around and is going CRAZY with her viral Christian Hip-Hop track, His Way Out. She speaks on her transformation along with her upbringing and how that molded her into the woman and artist she is today.
