What's a man to do? No Scouts, General Priesthood, sports, YM Presidencies, etc. The changes in the church have put men in a very different position. How do we adjust? How do we flourish?

Was England's break with Rome really about religious freedom—or about power and authority?In this controversial episode, Pat and Stephen uncover what actually happened between the English monarchy and the papacy during the Reformation. Drawing on the scholarship of Eamon Duffy, we challenge the familiar narrative of “Bloody” Mary I and tolerant Elizabeth I, showing instead that Catholic faith in England remained vibrant and deeply rooted long after the Reformation began.We examine Elizabeth I's Acts of Supremacy and Uniformity, the suppression of the Catholic Mass, and the enforcement of religious conformity—revealing a slow, reluctant reform imposed from above. At the center of the episode is Pope Pius V's 1570 bull, Regnans in Excelsis, which formally excommunicated Elizabeth I, declared her a heretic, and released her subjects from allegiance.Finally, we explore how the bull backfired—strengthening Elizabeth's rule, hardening persecution of Catholics, and cementing the schism between England and Rome that still exists today.Link to the Papal Bull: https://www.papalencyclicals.net/pius05/p5regnans.htmIf you'd like to donate to our ministry or be a monthly partner that receives newsletters and one on one discussions with Dr. Stephen Boyce, here's a link: https://give.tithe.ly/?formId=6381a2ee-b82f-42a7-809e-6b733cec05a7

Tyson breaks down what's happening across K–12 schools, college campuses, and even workplaces — where speech, faith, and basic reality are being pressured, chilled, or outright censored. We talk about how these conflicts actually start (often not “top-down”), why the loud minority can steer policy, and how dads can lead with wisdom, courage, and truth.You'll also hear practical ways to engage without rage, how to train yourself to speak with clarity (1 Peter 3:15), and why showing up matters: “Uniformity of thought breeds intolerance of disagreement.”If you're a father, a teacher, a student, or a man trying to stay faithful in a shifting culture — this one's for you.Follow Men's AllianceInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/mensalliancetribe/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/mensalliancetribeTiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@mensalliancetribeWebsite - https://www.mensalliancetribe.com/Explore Battlefield Coaching today and find yourself a Coach with experience overcoming a battle you are currently facing - https://battlefieldcoaching.comOrder the Book - Answer With Truth: The Ambassador's Field Manual for Leading Your Family Spiritually - https://amzn.to/3BmnuKV
THE AWAKENING OF CHINA'S ECONOMY Colleague Anne Stevenson-Yang, Wild Ride. Returning to China in 1994, the author witnessed a transformation from the destitute, Maoist uniformity of 1985 to a budding export economy. In the earlier era, workers slept on desks and lacked basic goods, but Deng Xiaoping's realization that the state needed hard currency prompted reforms. Deng established Special Economic Zones like Shenzhen to generate foreign capital while attempting to isolate the population from foreign influence, marking the start of China's export boom.

>> This series was first released in Nov/Dec 2019. We are re-releasing it now 6 years later as we are digging back in to document the collective impact of the series and to celebrate the work of those continuing to build the new grains movement. As part of this project we are collecting voice notes from anyone who listened, inviting you to share a bit of how Cereal impacted you and whether the series sparked any change or action, big or small - maybe it made you think differently about something, or maybe you completely changed career - we want to hear both and all stories! The voice notes will form part of a new Farmerama episode and digital soundmap. We are collecting these stories now, so if you would like to send your story our way, then you can send us an audio message on: WhatsApp +447466301300, or via our instagram messages. Please let us know who you are, where you are based and then whatever part of your story you would like to share. We are excited to hear from you! >> Today, wheat covers an estimated 218 million hectares of the planet – more than any other food crop. The quality of a loaf starts with the wheat. Most bread we eat today is made using modern varieties of wheat that were bred for yield at the expense of everything else. These seeds produce a monoculture of plants that can yield a lot in a good year, but are reliant on chemical inputs and extremely vulnerable in the face of climatic extremes. Most shockingly international legislation dictates that trading any wheat seeds that don't fit the modern wheat breeding criteria is essentially illegal. We hear from a top scientist about new findings showing we need to dramatically rethink the seeds we sow if we want to feed the planet in years to come, re-focusing on diversity and quality. And there's real hope – stories of people all over the UK who are finding ways around these oppressive laws, building up a seedbank that supports diversity, low-input ecological farming and nutritious grains to feed people. This is just the beginning. The radical changes that bread has undergone are revealing of wider truths about our relationships with food, to farmers, with the land, the environment, and with each other. This if the second episode in a 6 part series, Cereal, uncovering the hidden truths behind our bread and the people who are building a new grains movement. Cereal is written and produced by Katie Revell and made possible by the generous support of the Roddick Foundation.

Philip, Lara, and Bridget discuss the conclusion of the film adaptations of the Broadway musical 'Wicked.' Styled 'Wicked: For Good' and filmed simultaneously with act one of the duology, this Universal Pictures release takes place at least a year after the conclusion of the first film. Whilst Glinda, Fiyero and Nessarose are established in their prominent roles as public servants, Elphaba is painted in the public's eye as the traitorous, deplorable "Wicked Witch of the West." The current Ozian regime is one of rapid industrialization and modernization, and anyone other than a proper human Ozian is subject to discrimination or worse. In this magical land where the foremost Wizard and Witch are incapable of real magic, true power is viewed with hostility by the one magical mastermind, Madam Morrible. Uniformity and submissiveness are paramount. Can Elphaba enlist the aid of the Wizard and Glinda to thwart their behind-the-scenes puppetmaster?

In a world divided by opinions, Paul reminds us in Romans 14 that the church was never meant to be uniform, but unified. In this week's message, Pastor Jamie Grisham shares a powerful word on “Unity Without Uniformity.” From the early church in Rome to our world today, we're reminded that:• Differences aren't defects, they're design.• Disagreement doesn't have to mean division.• Convictions are personal, not weapons.God intentionally built His Church with different backgrounds, strengths, and perspectives to reveal His fullness. When love opens the door, the lost walk in—and unity births revival. Key Takeaways:• Don't judge where someone has freedom.• Don't flaunt freedom where someone has conviction.• Choose people over preference.• Pursue peace and build each other up.Romans 14:19 — “Let us pursue the things which make for peace and the things by which one may edify another.”Watch now and discover how to live in unity, walk in grace, and reflect the love of Christ in every difference.FOLLOW US!WEBSITE: https://www.compassiondickson.church/FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/compassiondicksonINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/compassionchurchdickson?igsh=eXp3Mm9ubG81aTQx&utm_source=qrSunday Extended Podcast: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRTsMFJ4TR5xa0PahwBjfzWK772IOi9G8&si=lsIu5iqaQwl79Jwj
In this message from Sanctuary SF's “New Humans” series, we explore Ephesians 4:1–16 and what it means to live as a unified, Spirit-filled community shaped by love.We're reminded that identity in Christ is not only personal but communal—rooted in the oneness of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The church is God's chosen vehicle to spread His glory and love throughout the earth.Discover how spiritual gifts work together to build up the Body of Christ, how love matures us into Christlike character, and how the Church reflects the very heart of the Trinity.
A Call to Unity Not Uniformity Ephesians 4:1-6 by Jeff Meyers, Senior Pastor
How Edward Seymour Went from Power to the Scaffold On this day in Tudor history, 8 October 1549, England's most powerful man became its newest traitor. Edward Seymour, Duke of Somerset and uncle to the boy-king Edward VI, had ruled England as Lord Protector since 1547. He pushed bold reforms (the Act of Uniformity and the Book of Common Prayer) but rebellion, rivalry, and ambition brought him down. When unrest broke out in 1549 - the Prayer Book Rebellion and Kett's Rebellion - Somerset's authority crumbled. He panicked, calling men to arms and taking the young king to Windsor. His enemies, led by John Dudley, Earl of Warwick, moved fast. On 8 October 1549, the Privy Council branded Somerset a traitor. By the 11th, he had surrendered. Within days, he was in the Tower; his protectorate abolished. But this is Tudor England… and there's always a twist. Somerset returned to power briefly, only to be accused of plotting against Northumberland and executed in January 1552. Join me, historian and author Claire Ridgway, as we explore how ambition, politics, and faith brought down the “Good Duke". Was Somerset a reformer out of his depth, or a ruthless operator undone by his own hand? Tell me in the comments!

The recently reported move by the RAF to manage supply of vegan alternative uniforms on request, whilst not necessarily quite as new as it may seem, may initially appear to challenge military identity, organisational culture, and the nature and Operational Effectiveness of a modern fighting force. But whilst I'm not vegan myself and therefore won't be taking advantage of this policy, I believe that it's a sensible and entirely appropriate step forward, that strengthens the RAF by demonstrating its commitment to its people, broadening its appeal to potential recruits, and reinforcing its ethical foundations without compromising Operational Effectiveness. There's been a lot of hate and derision over this, on social media, in various media outlets, and sadly even in the Service itself - unfortunate but unsurprising in the current climate. But I've also received and seen some genuine and reasonable comments - some from people I greatly respect - that I think do deserve and warrant a considered response. I'm entirely uninterested in feeding trolls, but I do believe in giving and receiving reasonable challenge and engaging in respectful debate - this is my attempt to contribute to that conversation. Individualism vs Uniformity The core purpose of a uniform is to foster a collective identity and spirit, subordinating the individual to the team. The criticism is that allowing ethical variations undermines this principle. However, I'd suggest this is a misinterpretation of the meaning, intent, and value of uniformity. Uniformity is not conformity, and Unit cohesion is not threatened by diversity; indeed, combined with psychological safety and strong, effective leadership (as one would expect in a military environment), diversity enhances military organisational effectiveness. Uniformity in the military is therefore about common standards and unity of purpose, not the literal, molecular composition of every item. A Service person's identity and function are defined by their rank slide, trade badge, and the uniform's cut, feel, and colour, none of which are altered by using appropriate non-animal materials. The military has a long history of accommodating deeply held beliefs without sacrificing cohesion. We accommodate religious dietary needs in rations, allow turbans and hijabs that conform to regulations, and respect religious holidays. Providing a vegan uniform option is simply a modern extension of this principle to include deeply held ethical convictions. True cohesion comes from shared values like courage, respect, and integrity, not from enforcing conformity down to the last stitch. A force that respects and values the conscience and cognitive diversity of its people strengthens the moral component, and is thus more unified and resilient. I'd also note that as long as I've been serving, personnel have always been able to source different boots and other items, to optimise their comfort. Go to any military Unit, and you'll see personnel in Altberg, Aku, Kestrel, Lowa, Meindl, and many other brands of boot - all procured through the stores issue system, and all intended to ensure individual comfort and suitability. There's very simply nothing new or controversial about accommodating individual needs to enhance performance. Cost and Resources It's argued that this is an unnecessary expense, diverting funds from more critical areas, like frontline equipment or improving pay. But the Strategic Defence Review 2025 recognises that representation, empowerment, and flexibility for our people is an investment. The cost of recruiting and training a Service person is significant - tens of thousands for a recruit and millions for a pilot. Losing even a small number of highly skilled personnel, or indeed deterring potential recruits, because of an easily solvable conflict with their (non-Operational) beliefs, costs far more to Defence than the marginal expense of sourcing alternative boots or gloves. The policy is "on request", and with MoD ...
We finished our Hab-i-tudes series this week learning about the importance of being unified as followers of Christ.
In any given Church, you'll find a variety of stories and backgrounds gathered into one big, messy family. Our common faith doesn't always erase our differences, so what makes unity possible? In this message, Justin unpacks what has become a central value at Restoration: the centering of Jesus in everything we do. At our core, He alone holds us together.
Pastor James Crawford delivered a heartfelt sermon on unity, drawing from Romans 15. He passionately urged the congregation to set aside pride and theological differences to work together as the body of Christ in a spiritually dark world. Reflecting on his experience at a Turning Point Pastor Summit, James shared how pastors from diverse backgrounds united for liberty and God's plan, despite tensions over church size or theology. He emphasized that believers are called to bear one another's burdens, as Christ did, and to engage in humble, constructive dialogue rather than division. Through personal anecdotes about his broken home and encounters with church scandals, James highlighted the transformative power of grace, using Paul's conversion as a vivid example. This sermon, rooted in Godspeak's anchored reading program, challenges believers to live out their faith actively, fostering unity to glorify God and impact culture effectively.Reference Verses:Romans 15 verses 1–7, Psalm 69 verse 9, Romans 15 verses 8–13, Psalm 18 verse 49, Deuteronomy 32 verse 43, Isaiah 11 verse 10, Acts 9 verses 3–4, Acts 9 verse 27, Ephesians 4 verse 3, Romans 3 verses 1–31, Romans 4 verses 1–25, Romans 5 verse 12, Romans 8 verses 1–39, Romans 9 verses 1–33, Romans 13 verses 1–14, Romans 16 verses 17–20, Ephesians 4 verses 11–16, 1 Corinthians 13 verse 2Make sure you subscribe to this channel and follow us on all our platforms to always stay up to date with our latest content!And you can always head over to our website for any general information! https://godspeak.com Prayer/NeedsIf you have any needs, or have a willingness to be used to meet various need in the body, please email info@godspeak.com.

Big Idea: Which is better, unity or uniformity?1 Corinthians 12:12-26For just as the body is one and has many parts, and all the parts of that body, though many, are one body—so also is Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free—and we were all given one Spirit to drink. Indeed, the body is not one part but many. If the foot should say, “Because I'm not a hand, I don't belong to the body,” it is not for that reason any less a part of the body. And if the ear should say, “Because I'm not an eye, I don't belong to the body,” it is not for that reason any less a part of the body. If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of smell be? But as it is, God has arranged each one of the parts in the body just as he wanted. And if they were all the same part, where would the body be? As it is, there are many parts, but one body. The eye cannot say to the hand, “I don't need you!” Or again, the head can't say to the feet, “I don't need you!” On the contrary, those parts of the body that are weaker are indispensable. And those parts of the body that we consider less honorable, we clothe these with greater honor, and our unrespectable parts are treated with greater respect, which our respectable parts do not need. Instead, God has put the body together, giving greater honor to the less honorable, so that there would be no division in the body, but that the members would have the same concern for each other. So if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.I. Are spiritual gifts permanent? II. Should we pray for (specific) spiritual gifts?III. If all gifts are important, why are some called “miracles”?Next Steps: Believe: I need Jesus to give me the gift of new life today.Become: I will honor someone else's gifts this week. Be Sent: I will use my gift to help someone who is suffering this week.Discussion Questions: What do you consider the most important spiritual need in the church right now? Why?Have you taken a spiritual gift test more than once? If so, did it change?How does seeing another person honored make you feel?How can you grow personally when others are being honored instead of you?How does it make you feel to give someone else praise for their efforts?How can the church grow stronger when individuals better understand their personal gifts?Pray for the Holy Spirit to help you use your spiritual gift this week.

n John 17, Jesus prays His final words before the cross—not just for His disciples, but for us. He asks the Father to keep us safe from the evil one, make us holy by His truth, and unify us in love. And in verse 23, we see the breathtaking truth of the gospel: the Father loves us with the same love He has for His perfect Son.
Day 1 St. Alphonsus you have said: "If we would completely rejoice the heart of God, let us strive in all things to conform ourselves to His divine will. Let us not only strive to conform ourselves, but also to unite ourselves to whatever dispositions God makes of us. Conformity signifies that we join our wills to the will of God. Uniformity means more. Uniformity means that we make one will of God's will and our will. In this way we will only what God wills. God's will alone is our will.

The Uniform Civil Code (UCC) has long been at the heart of India's constitutional and cultural tensions — hailed by some as a promise of equality, and critiqued by others as a tool of homogenisation. As the political momentum around the UCC gathers pace once again, with the recent Uttarakhand legislation in the news, this session revisits the debate from a constitutional, feminist, and social justice lens. What does “uniformity” mean in a deeply plural society? Can equality be achieved without erasing difference? How do we center the lived realities of women, religious minorities, Dalits, and Adivasis in this conversation? In this episode of BIC Talks, Raag Yadava, Madhu Bhushan will be in conversation with Alok Prasanna. This is an excerpt from a conversation that took place in the BIC premises in May 2025.

Ben and Jason discuss how vital unity is to the Church and how to achieve it.
This week's title is “Clothed in Christ, Not Uniformity” – based on Galatians 3:23-29. In a current socio-political climate that spreads the false narrative that diversity is divisive, the gift of this passage from Paul is (surprisingly) that oneness in Christ breaks down binaries to offer a mosaic rather than a melting pot – retaining diversity and difference while also finding a new oneness.”This is the third in a four-week worship series on the centrality of DEI in our Christ

My guest is Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, MD, PhD, Director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Professor Emeritus of Health Policy at Stanford University. We discuss which scientific questions ought to be the priority for NIH, how to incentivize bold, innovative science especially from younger labs, how to solve the replication crisis and restore trust and transparency in science and public health, including acknowledging prior failures by the NIH. We discuss the COVID-19 pandemic and the data and sociological factors that motivated lockdowns, masking and vaccine mandates. Dr. Bhattacharya shares his views on how to resolve the vaccine–autism debate and how best to find the causes and cures for autism and chronic diseases. The topics we cover impact everyone: male, female, young and old and, given that NIH is the premier research and public health organization in the world, extend to Americans and non-Americans alike.

In this time frame, which was probably only a couple of hours, Jesus washes the Disciples' feet, and then has a really long speech, although it was interrupted a few times by the Disciple's questions. And then there is a long prayer at the end of the long speech. The whole thing takes five chapters, which is almost one quarter of the entire Gospel. It indicates the importance that John placed on these last words on Maundy Thursday, the final teachings and final prayer that Jesus had for the Disciples. Jesus, in essence, is saying this is the most important stuff. I am about to go, and when I do you need to make sure you remember these things. So what are these things?

Welcome back to Booked till June!! Come with us as we dive into a hot topic of discussion in the salon about the unspoken expectations of dress code or being unique. Which is acceptable?

So, how can stylists stay true to their style while respecting salon guidelines? We will explore the importance of branding, professionalism and practicality. How personal style helps stylists connect with clients and build confidence. And we will ask whether uniformity creates a more polished look or should salons embrace self-expression? Listen in as we explore creative ways to showcase your unique style while staying polished and professional in the salon!

In the 1600s England passed Acts of Uniformity that led to two thousand Puritans protesting the church of England and becoming basically outlaws. What if this act passed today?
