Nosipho Radebe speaks to Uganda-based Economist, Dr. Fred MuhumuzaSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We're talking about hashtags. Hashtags for Twitter.我们今天要谈的是标签（hashtag）。Twitter 上使用的标签。I'll stop you right there, Jackie.杰姬，我先打断你一下。You know I don't know hardly anything about Twitter whatsoever, but can you just clarify for me the difference between the hashtag and I've also seen the at symbol used for Twitter.你知道我对 Twitter 几乎一无所知，不过你能不能帮我解释一下 hashtag 和我在 Twitter 上看到的 @ 符号之间的区别？OK. So, the hashtag is basically a way for people to search for tweets that have the same topic or specific theme, whereas the at symbol is followed by the username.好的。Hashtag 基本上是一种让人们搜索同一主题或特定话题推文的方法，而 @ 符号后面则接的是用户名。It's the person's Twitter handle. It's used by a specific user.那是一个人的 Twitter 帐号，也就是某个特定用户使用的标识。Okidoki.好的，明白了。So, if we take the British Council or any other language organisations, learners or teachers of English, if they put in hashtag EFL, then they'll find all the tweets put up by people interested in that topic – English as a foreign language.例如，如果我们以英国文化协会或其他语言机构为例，英语学习者或教师输入 #EFL，他们就能看到所有有关该主题（英语作为外语）的推文。Right, OK. So, it's a bit like just simply Googling a topic.好，明白。所以这有点像直接用 Google 搜索一个主题。Exactly. But if you want to write someone, you'd put at.没错。但如果你想写信给某个人，你就用 @。Right. You're writing directly to that user.对，你是在直接留言给该用户。OK. So, anybody can make up a hashtag then on any topic they want?所以任何人都可以随意创建一个 hashtag，对任何主题都可以吗？Yes.是的。So, what's the issue then with businesses or organisations using the hashtag?那么企业或组织在使用 hashtag 时会遇到什么问题？Well, as we've said, the hashtags are shared, OK? So, if you take the University of Georgia, their hashtag is UGA, OK?如我们之前说过，hashtag 是共享的。比如佐治亚大学，他们的 hashtag 是 UGA。Right.好。Now, the problem is that during the Olympics, UGA was the three-letter code used by... Uganda.问题是，在奥运会期间，UGA 也是乌干达的三字母代码。Exactly.没错。And Twitter decided that all countries with their three-letter code would have a little flag attached to the code. So, it was hashtag UGA with a Ugandan flag.Twitter 决定所有国家的三字母代码都会附上一个小国旗。所以 #UGA 就自动加上了乌干达国旗。Right, OK.好，我知道了。So, the University of Georgia, which is American, their hashtag suddenly had a Ugandan flag attached to it.所以美国的佐治亚大学，他们的 hashtag 突然变成带有乌干达国旗的 #UGA。And people got confused when they were making searches, presumably.而用户在搜索时自然就产生了困惑。Well, exactly.完全正确。So, hashtag GBR for the Great Barrier Reef suddenly had a Union Jack.例如，大堡礁（Great Barrier Reef）的 hashtag #GBR 也突然变成带有英国国旗。For the great British Olympic team.因为英国奥运队的国家代码也是 GBR。Yeah.没错。So, businesses kind of had... you have to be careful that you might have your hashtag hijacked.所以企业必须小心，因为你的 hashtag 可能会被“挟持”。Mmm.嗯。Now, going back to hashtag EFL, right?回到 #EFL 这个例子。Yes. English as a foreign language.对，英语作为外语。Now, the problem there is the Football League in the UK, you're probably aware, has been completely rebranded.问题在于英国的足球联盟（Football League），你可能知道，他们已经完全重新品牌化。Yes.是的。They've got the Premier League but the other teams are in different leagues. They've branded themselves now as the English Football League. With their new logo.除了英超联赛，其他球队组成的联盟现在改名为“英格兰足球联赛”（English Football League），并启用了新的标志。So, they have started a Twitter account. They have a Twitter handle, at EFL.他们开了一个 Twitter 帐号，账号名称是 @EFL。Right.好。But if anyone puts the hashtag EFL, they'll get a mixture of the English Football League and English as a foreign language.但如果有人使用 hashtag #EFL，他们会同时看到英语足球联赛和英语作为外语两方面的内容。Exactly. It's like getting information about goals, like getting information about football rather than phonology.没错——你会看到进球信息，而不是语音学内容。Right, OK.好，我明白了。So, if you're a company, you've got to be very careful about what hashtags you choose for your company.所以，如果你是企业，你必须非常小心选择你的 hashtag。And we certainly can't use hashtag pie for obvious reasons.而我们当然不能用 #pie，这原因显而易见。Yes, exactly. So, businesses, just maybe do a little research before you choose the hashtag that goes with your tweet.没错。因此企业在选择 hashtag 时，最好先做一点研究。

M51 T9X15 Desaparecer Creyendo Tres Cultos, Fe y Personas Borradas del Mundo. En este episodio de Misterio 51 viajamos por dos territorios donde el ser humano se rompe: los cultos que prometieron salvación y acabaron en muerte, y las desapariciones que dejaron familias atrapadas en el tiempo. Heaven's Gate, Uganda, el breatharianismo… y personas que un día salieron de casa y nunca regresaron. Fe ciega, control mental, vacío psicológico y el miedo más profundo: desaparecer sin dejar rastro. Un episodio duro, necesario y profundamente humano.

Sie sind das Wahrzeichen Ägyptens und zählen zu den sieben Weltwundern: Die Pyramiden von Gizeh. Sie liegen mittlerweile am Stadtrand der stetig wachsenden Megametropole Kairo und sind fast 5000 Jahre alt. An Imposanz und Einzigartigkeit haben sie aber im Laufe der Jahrtausende nichts eingebüßt. Für viele Besucher erfüllt sich hier ein Kindheitstraum: Einmal die Pyramiden sehen. Einheimische sind stolz auf das Werk ihrer Vorfahren. Ein neues System leitet die Touristen jetzt mit Hop-on-Hop-Off-Bussen zu den einzigartigen Bauwerken. Anna Osius ist mitgefahren. Außerdem war Stefan Ehlert im größten Freibad Afrikas und Karin Bensch kulinarisch in Kenia und Uganda unterwegs.

Im Herzen des Bwindi Impenetrable Nationalparks im Südwesten des Landes brechen wir zum wohl größten Abenteuer unserer Uganda-Reise auf: dem Gorilla-Trekking!Auf steilen, schweißtreibenden Pfaden durch den dichten Regenwald begeben wir uns auf die Suche nach einer der letzten freilebenden Populationen von Berggorillas. Begleitet von Rangern, Fährtenlesern und einem beeindruckenden Team aus Trägern kämpfen wir uns durch dichtes Dickicht und überwinden Flüsse und steile Hänge. Nach Stunden des Wanderns erleben wir eine Begegnung, die uns den Atem raubt: Eine Gruppe Berggorillas, darunter ein mächtiger Silberrücken, tritt plötzlich aus dem Grün hervor – und sorgt für Momente voller Respekt, Demut und Intensität.Begleitet Lydia Möcklinghoff, Erik Lorenz und ihr Team in dieser sechsten Folge der Uganda-Reihe auf eine emotionale und unvergessliche Reise – in das grüne Herz eines einzigartiges, gefährdeten Paradieses unseres Planeten!

Sasha Vybz, Uganda's biggest music video director and one of Africa's most influential filmmakers, joins Bonny Kibuuka on The Ugandan Boy Talk Show for an in-depth conversation about his journey, the evolution of Ugandan music videos, the rise of AI in filmmaking, and his new film school.From shooting iconic videos like Kisasi Kimu, Spinny & Friends, Easy by Denim Cartel, and Rachel K's Special Day, to working with East Africa's biggest stars like Sheebah, Chameleone, Bebe Cool, Sauti Sol, Harmonize, and Patoranking, Sasha has shaped the visual identity of African music.In this episode, we discuss:

DRC rebel forces THIS WEEK entered the last government-held city in the country's mineral-rich eastern province, in an offensive that has forced thousands to flee across the border into Burundi. The escalation in fighting and takeover of Uvira comes despite the peace deal brokered by US President Donald Trump last week between DRC's President Félix Tshisekedi and Rwanda's Paul Kagame to end the long-running conflict. On Thursday the M23 rebel group said it had "liberated" the city. Control of Uvira could open the way for the rebels to advance beyond South Kivu province. To help us understand the situation, Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Godber Tumushabe, Associate Director at the Great Lakes Institute for Strategic Studies, in Uganda.

In many Western classrooms, the mobile phone is viewed as the "forbidden fruit", a primary source of distraction that must be banned, confiscated, or locked away in magnetic pouches. Teachers and parents alike are exhausted by the constant battle over "screen time," whilst struggling to engage students in an education system that hasn't evolved in decades. Lectures are often unengaging, leading students to drift away, yet we blame the device rather than the delivery. Is this prohibitive approach a catastrophic mistake? Stephen Hodges warns that Western nations risk being "digitally leapfrogged" by developing economies. In regions like rural Uganda or Brazil, the student's personal mobile is not a toy; it is a lifeline to quality education amidst a massive shortage of qualified teachers. By demonising the technology our children use most, we risk missing "the biggest opportunity in education that we've seen in millennia". Furthermore, focusing solely on restricting minutes creates unnecessary conflict at home, failing to teach the critical self-regulation skills young people desperately need. This episode of The EdTech Podcast offers a way forward by shifting the narrative from "Screen Time" to "Screen Purpose". Philippa Wraithmell sits down with three experts to explore how we can embrace technology rather than fight it: •    Stephen Hodges (Efekta): Reveals how AI teaching assistants on personal phones are solving the teacher shortage crisis and delivering personalised learning in emerging markets. •    Adam Huh Dam (Stick 'Em): Demonstrates how STEAM education is reaching the most remote areas using nothing but smartphones and internet access. •    Payal Patel (Digital Bridge): Provides actionable strategies for parents to build "digital confidence" and healthy boundaries at home without the conflict. Tune in to discover why the device in your pocket might just be the most powerful educational asset we have.

In this episode of the Gen Z Series, we tackle a big question many young adults are quietly asking: What does it actually mean to be a Christian? We're living in a moment where Christianity is trending again. It's “cool” to follow Jesus, to wear the merch, get Bible verse tattoos, and post faith-themed content. But trends don't sustain a soul. And they won't carry you through heartbreak, confusion, cultural pressure, or the deep questions of calling and identity. Honest, biblically grounded, and super practical, this episode is designed to help Gen Z move beyond a surface-level faith and into a life of true devotion, surrender, and purpose. Whether you're a young adult trying to figure out what you really believe or someone who loves and mentors Gen Z, this conversation will help you see what it means to follow Jesus wholeheartedly.   ABOUT: Lina AbuJamra is a Pediatric ER doctor, now practicing telemedicine, and the founder of Living With Power Ministries. Known for her bold faith and down-to-earth honesty, she's passionate (and allegedly funny) about helping people connect biblical truth to everyday life. Whether through teaching, writing, or podcasting, Lina brings hope to those wrestling with life's hardest questions. When she's not speaking or creating content, she's providing medical and humanitarian aid in crisis zones like Lebanon and Uganda. Learn more about her at LivingWithPower.org.

#195 - A bull charges, a crowd roars, and a young teacher in Mexico says yes to the ring. That same man later sleeps on a bare floor in Juarez with his dog, ships bags at night, and turns a sketch into a company people chase through airports. Meet Dave Munson, founder of Saddleback Leather, whose path blends risk, faith, and relentless craft into a life that refuses shortcuts.We dig into the moment he drew the first “Indiana Jones” bag, why strangers wouldn't stop asking for it, and how a $100 apartment, bus-station pickups, and stubborn standards turned into a brand with a 100-year warranty. Dave shares blunt truths on pricing and materials, the discipline behind quality control, and the sacrifices most never see—waiting to marry, choosing grit over comfort, and protecting a business from the quiet temptations of cutting corners. His leadership lessons are disarmingly personal: court your spouse, encourage everyone, and help others win. Success, he argues, starts at home.Faith threads through everything. Dave talks about praying boldly for “the coolest,” from a 1971 Land Cruiser rack to a headquarters built from compressed leather bales. He explains how purpose shapes operations—building a factory in Mexico, launching a homeschool program for employees' kids, reopening an English institute, and sponsoring students in Rwanda and Uganda. Travel becomes marketing with a soul: crocs tug-of-war on a bag, shark dives on a honeymoon, and a simple stopover hack that turns Africa routes into Morocco detours at no extra cost.We close by redefining adventure. Dave bans the word in branding and lives it instead: choose the unknown, trust that you'll figure it out, and let curiosity steer the map. If you care about craftsmanship, entrepreneurship, service, and stories that actually happened, this conversation delivers. Subscribe, share with a friend who loves quality over hype, and leave a review with your favorite takeaway—what bold step are you ready to take next?To learn more about Dave and maybe get yourself or a loved one a gift check out www.saddlbackleather.com and you can follow him on Instagram as well @saddlebackbags.Be sure and follow me on Instagram as well to see some clips from the show and to get to know the personal side of yours truly!

Around the world, women and girls walk long distances every day to fetch water, losing education, income, and safety in the process. On this global episode of The Nonprofit Show, we welcome Shilpa Alva, founder and executive director of Surge for Water, beaming in late at night from Samarkand, Uzbekistan. From the first moments, Shilpa reframes water as a gendered economic issue, not just an infrastructure problem. As Shilpa puts it, “The water crisis is a woman's crisis” — and it is also a profound injustice baked into race, gender, and geography.Shilpa walks us through Surge's “water plus” model: safe water, sanitation, hygiene, and menstrual health, all rooted in a woman centered, community owned approach. Surge does not parachute in solutions; it backs local leaders in rural Uganda, Indonesia, and Haiti so they can design and manage what their communities truly need. For nonprofit executives, the business implications are huge: the World Bank estimates a twenty one to one return for every dollar invested in comprehensive water access, yet most funders still treat water as a narrow infrastructure line item instead of a generational prosperity strategy.The conversation then moves into power, money, and the shifting landscape of international aid. With government funding cuts shaking the sector, organizations that once relied on large public grants are now competing for the same corporate and individual donors as smaller NGOs. Surge has navigated this by diversifying its revenue model between the United States and Dubai, and by building creative fundraising events that attract sectors like design and architecture into the water conversation.Shilpa is candid about decolonial practice and the uncomfortable truth that international NGOs are part of a historic power structure. Surge actively works to reduce that power imbalance so local partners shape solutions and control implementation. SurgeForWater.org shows us all how to align mission, funding strategy, equity, and storytelling. 00:00:00 Global welcome and introducing Shilpa Alva from Uzbekistan 00:02:23 What Surge for Water does and the water plus model 00:04:03 Why the global water crisis is a women centered injustice 00:07:01 Lost hours, education, and income cost of water collection 00:08:52 Respecting local roles while shortening the walk and reducing harm 00:11:37 Making distant donors care storytelling and climate connections 00:13:13 Creative events and interior design partners as a fundraising engine 00:14:50 Aid cuts, USAID shifts, and new competition for nonprofit funding 00:15:52 Decolonial practice and sharing power with local leaders 00:21:18 How Surge builds trust with next generation donors and partners 00:22:46 Metrics versus stories choosing humanity while still tracking results 00:27:23 Funding wins, 2026 expansion plans, and Shilpa's hopeful vision #TheNonprofitShow #WaterJustice #WomenInLeadershipFind us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

On Human Rights Day, Uganda is in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons. New laws criminalize identifying with the LGBTQ+, activists are tracked, and journalists are silenced — long before the January 2026 elections. Eddy Micah Jr. speaks with Dr. Sarah Bireete and DW's Frank Yiga in Kampala about shrinking civic space, silenced dissent, and the fear shaping daily life.

Solving Big Problems Together: Uganda's Four-Pillar Model for Community TransformationJoin host Justin Forman in conversation with Andrew DeVaney, founder of As One Africa, for an inspiring discussion about what it takes to solve interconnected problems in rural Uganda. From his friendship with a rural educator to building a four-pronged model serving 50,000 patients, 4,000 students, and 5,000 farmers annually, Andrew shares how empowering Ugandans to solve Ugandan problems creates sustainable transformation.This episode explores the power of earned revenue models over aid dependency, the importance of treating beneficiaries as customers, and why time in the game matters more than quick wins. Discover how collaboration, storytelling, and Kingdom partnership can address some of the world's most pressing challenges.Key Topics:Uganda's demographic advantage: 80% under 30, 50% under 18The four-pillar model: schools, health centers, farms, and businesses working togetherWhy "catching a thief requires sending a thief" - the power of local problem-solversEarned revenue vs. aid dependency: treating beneficiaries as customers with voiceHow competition and feedback loops drive innovation and dignityThe interconnectivity of rural poverty: education, healthcare, agriculture, and employmentBuilding sustainable models that don't depend on foreign fundingPraxis lessons: balancing venture building with soul care for long-term impactNotable Quotes:"The young people that are coming up, they're now being educated, they're going to school, they desire a different opportunity within the country that they live in, and expect better from their leaders." - Andrew DeVaney"Ugandans empowering Ugandans. This is something that there's this self perpetuating feedback loop that pushes Ugandans to want to do more." - Andrew DeVaney"Time in the game is going to be such a big deal.

Idi Amin is 20th-century Africa's most notorious ruler – a cartoonish tyrant who has been bracketed with the likes of Hitler and Stalin. And it's true that, as Uganda's dictator for most of the 1970s, he oversaw murderous repression as well as the forced expulsion of the nation's Asian community. But why did so many ordinary Ugandans willingly serve the regime and help to maintain his power? That's a question at the heart of a new book by the historian Derek R Peterson, and in this episode he shares his conclusions with Rob Attar.  (Ad) Derek R Peterson is the author of A Popular History of Idi Amin's Uganda (Yale University Press, 2025).

I'm excited to introduce a new podcast series created specifically for Gen Z-ers and the people who love them. Each episode features a real, honest conversation between me and my Gen Z co-host (who you will meet in today's episode) as we unpack what it actually looks like to follow Jesus in today's world… in college classrooms, workplaces, friendships, dating, online spaces, and everywhere in between. We explore faith not as a checklist, but as a way of life that shapes every decision, season, and struggle. Together, we tackle the challenging questions young adults are asking: How can you handle relationships, money, and big decisions in a way that honors God? What does it really mean to hear God's voice or experience God's presence? How can you live out your faith without caving to the pressures around you? What does it really take to build a faith that lasts? This podcast is for any young adult learning how to build a life with Jesus at the center, and for every parent, pastor, mentor, or friend who wants to better understand and support the next generation. Authentic, practical, biblical, and sometimes a little raw, this is where real life meets real faith. Join the conversation. Let's grow together.   ABOUT: Lina AbuJamra is a Pediatric ER doctor, now practicing telemedicine, and the founder of Living With Power Ministries. Known for her bold faith and down-to-earth honesty, she's passionate (and allegedly funny) about helping people connect biblical truth to everyday life.

When Suuna Hassan and Madinah Babirah founded Masaka Kids Africana in the Masaka District of Uganda, they hoped to help a handful of orphaned children and other young people living on the streets. They had no way of knowing where their efforts would lead or that one day the whole world would be watching.   Directors David Vieira Lopez and Oscar-nominated filmmaker Moses Bwayo (“Bobi Wine: The People's President”) join Ken on the pod to discuss this extraordinary organization, as well as the viral dance videos performed by the children of Masaka that caught the world's attention during the pandemic. David, who was a volunteer at the organization at the time, and Moses, who is himself Ugandan, teamed up to tell the powerful story behind this Internet sensation. To their credit, the filmmakers are just as impressed with what Nabirah and Ian, and other children of Masaka, have to say, as with the dance steps that made these kids famous. In a place where HIV/AIDS has afflicted many thousands of people over the years and left many young people orphaned, Masaka Kids Africana is not just a symbol of hope but a vibrant community that is actively changing young people's lives.   “Masaka Kids: A Rhythm Within” will be released on Netflix on December 9th.   Follow: @bwayomoses on Instagram and X  @masakakidsafricana on Instagram and @masakakids on X @topdocspod on Instagram and X    The Presenting Sponsor of "Top Docs" is Netflix.

Holiday meltdowns, money stress, family drama, and kids who suddenly “need” everything they see?

Brent Kaup (William & Mary University) and Kelly Austin (Lehigh University) come on the podcast to discuss their new book connecting disease and capitalism. They begin by discussing the financialization of America and link it as a cause of climate change. Financialization is also linked to diseases and specifically vector borne diseases through the suburbanization of areas such as Virginia. In parallel, Brent and Kelly also examine financialization in the context of malaria in Uganda, and how the increased exploitation of coffee created an environment that is more conducive to mosquitos, which coincided with a deterioration of the public health system. At the end of the interview, Brent and Kelly discuss how to do co-authorship. 

In today's episode, We're talking with Joanne Mumbey, a rising voice in beer education and beer and food pairing. Joanne is a Certified Cicerone and, newly as of this month, a certified pommelier, and she's the founder of BeyLoved Pairings, through which she leads curated beer and food pairings that go beyond the European cuisines that are typically found at beer dinners to incorporate food traditions from around the world, including Moroccan, Viet-Cajun, and various traditions from around the Caribbean, among others. Joanne and I talk about the spirit behind her pairings and the importance of storytelling. We also taste some craft chocolate and beer and chocolate pairings. You can learn more about Joanne at her website or on Instagram.Guest:Joanne Mumbey, founder of BeyLoved Pairings, is a Certified Cicerone®, Certified Pommelier, and Culinary Dietitian selected for Wine Enthusiast's Future Forty Tastemakers for 2025. Originally from Uganda, Joanne's global upbringing exposed her to diverse international cuisines through her parents' work, sparking a lifelong curiosity for flavors from around the world. This passion led her to Johnson & Wales University's Culinary School, where she discovered her love for craft beer. However, she noticed that most beer and food pairings focused predominantly on European cuisine, overlooking the rich flavors of other culinary traditions. Driven by this gap in the industry, Joanne created BeyLoved Pairings to celebrate and showcase diverse flavors that are close to her heart but often underrepresented in traditional beer pairing experiences.

Hii leo jaridani tukiendelea kukupa taarifa mbalimbali kuhusu siku 16 za kuhamasisha umma kutokomeza ukatili dhidi ya wanawake, leo tunaelekea Mjini Hoima Magharibi mwa Uganda kusikia hisia za wanawake kuhusu ukatili dhidi ya wanawake mtandaoni.Watu takribani 100,000 wamekimbia makazi yao kaskazini mwa Msumbiji ndani ya wiki mbili, huku Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Kuhudumia wakimbizi UNHCR likionya kuwa mashambulizi yanaongezeka na kuyakumba hata maeneo yaliyokuwa salama. Mwakilishi wa UNHCR, Xavier Creach, amesema mgogoro “unazidi kuzorota kwa kasi ya kutisha” huku familia zikikimbia usiku gizani wakati watu wenye silaha wakivamia vijiji vyao. UNHCR inasema linahitaji dola milioni 38.2 kukidhi mahitaji yanayoongezeka.Kaskazini mwa Asia, dhoruba za kitropiki na mvua zisizo za kawaida zimesababisha vifo vya mamia na watu wengi kukimbia makazi yao, imesema WMO. Clare Nullis, msemaji wa shirika hilo, alisema Indonesia, Ufilipino, Sri Lanka, Thailand na Vietnam ndizo zimeathirika zaidi. “Tunahitaji kuzingatia kuwa Asia iko hatarini sana kutokana na mafuriko,” amesema Nullis, akibainisha kuwa dhoruba karibu na Ekweta ni nadra na jamii hazina uzoefu wa kukabiliana nazo. Indonesia pekee, watu 604 wamefariki, 464 hawajulikani walipo, na 2,600 wamejeruhiwa, huku zaidi ya milioni 1.5 wakiathirika na 570,000 wakikimbia makazi yao.Wakati dunia ikiadhimisha Siku ya Kimataifa ya Kukomesha Utumwa leo Desemba      2 Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Kazi Duniani ILO limeonya kuhusu kuongezeka kwa utumwa wa kisasa wa binadamu, likionesha kuwa watu milioni 10 zaidi walikuwa wakiishi katika kazi za kulazimisha au ndoa za shuruti mwaka 2021 ikilinganishwa na mwaka 2016. Makadirio haya mapya yanaweka idadi ya walioathirika duniani kote kuwa watu milioni 50 huku wanawake na watoto wakiendelea kuwa wenye hatari kubwa zaidi.Na katika kujifunza lugha ya Kiswahili, leo mchambuzi wetu ni Dkt. Josephat Gitonga, ambaye ni Mhadhiri katika Chuo Kikuu cha Nairobi nchini Kenya, kwenye kitivo cha Tafsiri na Ukalimani anafafanua maana ya methali "KOTI LA BABU HALIKOSI CHAWA".Mwenyeji wako ni Sabrina Moshi, karibu!

In this tender and hope-filled conversation, Ginny sits down with beloved children's author Sally Lloyd-Jones, whose Jesus Storybook Bible has shaped the spiritual childhood of millions of kids (including the Yurichs'!). Sally shares her remarkable backstory - being born in Uganda, growing up in East and West Africa, going to boarding school at age eight, and how God used both beauty and early wounds to form her as a writer. She and Ginny talk about her brand-new book Jesus, Our True Friend: Stories to Fill Your Heart with Joy, and what it means to write children's stories that are playful, deeply theological, and never “dumbed down.” Along the way, Sally explains the heart behind unforgettable phrases like “extra super holy people,” why Jesus' first miracle at a wedding is all about restoring joy, and how good children's books quietly preach hope without ever becoming preachy. The conversation also turns deeply personal as Ginny shares the painful story of her family being kicked out of their church after raising concerns about a youth pastor who was later arrested on multiple felony charges. Together, she and Sally reflect on spiritual abuse, disillusionment with “extra super holy” leaders, and the miracle of God still meeting children directly in the middle of heartbreak. Ginny tells how her youngest daughter found comfort and theological clarity in the Joseph story from the Jesus Storybook Bible, using Sally's words to interpret her own church trauma and see God's redemption at work. From bullied kids to exhausted “Martha” moms, from online mobs to stone-throwers in Scripture, this episode is a balm for anyone who needs to remember that Jesus is a true friend who loves us before we ever “get it right", with a never stopping, never giving up, unbreaking, always and forever love.
