Tom explains that while our sin and pride are deep, God's restoring grace is deeper still, provided we abandon our self-reliance and meet Him on the terms of biblical humility.
“It became acceptable. It's okay to ask people to pay for your creative work... every minute that you spend working on these projects is valued.” Simon Haisell I sat down with the wonder that is Simon Haisell in Spring to chat more about his patron model here on Substack (the one I always use as an example). It was such a precious conversation about the magic of Substack and community. I know you'll be super inspired. If you've not heard of Simon - you'll be enchanted to meet him - he's the creator behind Footnotes and Tangents on Substack which is now in year 3. He's based in the North East of England (like me) and I always adore supporting North East creative minds - this conversation was just an honour. Simon runs slow read-alongs of classic and literary fiction (his flagship being a chapter-a-day of Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace across a full year).He started the book club on Instagram before moving to Substack around end of 2023. “You read a chapter (of War and Peace) each day and you're living the life with the characters rather than racing to the end... it does allow you to make connections with your own life.”The conversation covers his journey from passion project to full-time Substack creator, how word of mouth (including a major Gretchen Rubin (!!) shoutout) drove lots of his growth.We talk about why he uses a “soft paywall” model including complimentary subscriptions for anyone who can't pay, and how he intentionally stays off the leaderboard numbers to protect the soul of his work. We also touch on how we manage our nervous systems in relation to ‘leaderboards' and ‘being' online. The episode ends with exciting news: Simon has just signed with literary agency Curtis Brown and been in conversation with Penguin, directly because of his Substack presence. What a well deserved whirlwind. I can't wait to see what happens next!! “If I chased the numbers and tried to make the world's biggest book group, all of the soul would suck out of it very quickly... what comes across in my writing is my love of the books, that's why I'm here.” Simon Haisell War and Peace Daily - https://footnotesandtangents.substack.com/s/2026-war-and-peace-dailyFree Masterclass with me - The four types of monetisation on Substack.

Tom Pennington explains God's jealous love for His people and how His grace draws us back from divided loyalties. Does it startle you to realize that your personal conflicts and worldly compromises are viewed by God as an act of spiritual unfaithfulness?
Tom continues to demonstrate how the Bible uncovers the precise path from conflict to reconciliation through the wisdom of God's Word. Are you still trying to resolve your relational disputes by managing external circumstances, or are you ready to submit to the heart-transforming wisdom of Scripture?
Tom explores why our prayers often go unanswered when driven by selfish motives and how God calls us away from chasing empty pleasures toward the only true source of satisfaction: God Himself.
Pastor Tom helps us discover how these restless desires spill over into our relationships, producing division—and why true peace can only be found when our deepest satisfaction is rooted in God Himself. Are you looking to the shifting pleasures of this world to satisfy your soul, or are you seeking the true peace that comes only from absolute contentment in God?
Today, Pastor Tom helps us understand that true peace begins not by changing others but by humbly confronting the conflict within ourselves. Friend, when you are caught in an argument, are you more consumed with winning the point, or are you ready to face the selfish passions ruling your own soul?
The Bible must be our authority on conflict because human history itself is a staggering testimony to what happens when we rely on our own wisdom. But what makes Scripture indispensable is that not only is it God' s Word but it also refuses to let us deal only with the surface of conflict and moves straight to the source—the sinful cravings and self-centered desires within our own hearts that wage war against our souls.
Today on Uncommon Sense, we're discussing what may be the most consequential political moment of Donald Trump's career. With Trump's approval ratings slipping, the Iran conflict escalating, renewed questions surrounding the Epstein files, and the assassination of Charlie Kirk continuing to reverberate through the conservative movement, many Americans are asking whether these events are isolated, or part of a much larger story.In this episode, I examine the connections I believe may exist between these developments, including my view that the Epstein files may have been used as leverage against powerful political figures and that foreign interests have exerted significant influence over American policy in the Middle East.We'll discuss:Trump's declining support among his baseThe growing controversy surrounding U.S. involvement with IranThe unanswered questions surrounding the Epstein filesThe political impact of Charlie Kirk's assassination and its aftermathWhy I believe these stories intersect in ways the mainstream media refuses to exploreMy goal is not to tell you what to think, but to encourage you to question narratives, follow incentives, and examine who benefits from the decisions being made in Washington.--https://www.bible.com/
Tuppence Middleton is one of the most talented actors of her generation. Her work spans the intimate and the epic, from the haunting dystopias of Sense8 to the elegance of Downton Abbey. She brings a rare depth to every role she inhabits and her recent memoir Scorpions reveals a courageous and deeply personal side of her story. This podcast is a celebration of an impressive career to date, a tutorial in Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and also serves as a reminder that we can look at someone, judge, think they have it all, perhaps allow a modicum of envy to creep in and yet we have absolutely no clue what challenges they are facing. I had such a wonderful time talking to Tuppence and you will love this podcast.

In this episode of The Andrew Parker Show, Andrew Parker takes a direct and unfiltered look at one of the most critical geopolitical questions facing the world today: is a real peace deal with Iran possible—or are we simply delaying the next war?Building on ongoing tensions and recent negotiations, Andrew breaks down why traditional diplomacy may not apply in this case. He examines the history of failed agreements, including the nuclear deal, and argues that the current Iranian regime operates under a fundamentally different framework—one that challenges the very premise of lasting peace. The discussion goes deeper, exploring the broader implications for Israel, the Middle East, global financial markets, and U.S. strategic interests. From the role of radical ideology to shifting dynamics in Syria, Lebanon, and the potential expansion of regional peace agreements, Andrew outlines what is at stake if the moment is mishandled.He also addresses the political divide in the United States, analyzing how both parties are responding—and what that means for the future of leadership, security, and global stability.At its core, this episode asks a critical question: are we pursuing peace, or postponing conflict?This is a candid, thought-provoking conversation on politics, Israel, and the law.Support the showThe Andrew Parker Show - Politics, Israel & The Law.

Sumi Somaskanda, Caitriona Perry and Bernd Debusmann discuss how The president's attitude towards the people of Iran has changed - from saying he would help them to threatening to destroy Iranian civilisation.

Every weekend, The President's Path explores the state of US politics in Washington and beyond. We dig into the key issues shaping America and uncover what's on the minds of those closest to power.
Episode #513: Georgi Engelbrecht of the International Crisis Group links two stories that matter for Myanmar: the Mindanao peace process and Russia's ties to authoritarian partners in Southeast Asia.He begins in the Philippines with what he calls the conflict's “master cleavage” — Muslim communities inside a state seeking self-determination against what they see as colonial intrusion. That grievance was reinforced by migration, exclusion, and underdevelopment until it hardened into decades of separatist war. But the macro narrative never explained everything. Alongside it ran “horizontal violence”: clan feuds, communal disputes, and local power struggles that don't disappear just because a deal is signed.For Engelbrecht, the 2012 and 2014 agreements with the Moro Islamic Liberation Front were a turning point, not an ending. The MILF largely abandoned fighting, the Bangsamoro autonomy project became real, and governing structures took shape after the autonomous region was established in 2019. Yet the region remains “in flux,” with delays, elite rivalries, contested legitimacy, and violence that has shifted rather than vanished.From Mindanao he pivots to Myanmar and what major powers mean by “stability.” Russia's push into Asia, he argues, accelerated with its rupture from the West, as Moscow sought partners and arenas beyond Western leverage. In Myanmar, that lens favors the junta: Russia tends to read rebellion as instability and the central state as the default counterweight. With pipelines for hardware, parts, training, and contact, “Myanmar, because of Russia's help, is not that isolated anymore,” and perceptions of durability become a force multiplier.His wager is blunt: “Russia is banking on victory of the regime.” China, by contrast, cannot afford distance and hedges across actors because Myanmar's disorder sits on its border. As Engelbrecht puts it, “Chechnya [for Russia] is probably what Myanmar is for China.” For Moscow, this becomes part of a broader pattern—how Russia shows it can keep partners standing, stay relevant beyond Western systems, and act as a patron for regimes the West is trying to isolate. For Myanmar, that means the relationship isn't a blueprint for victory—but it can function as scaffolding: not determining the war's shape, but bracing the regime's ability to persist.

Join us today as we discuss the war in Iran following by the peace we find in Christ. Dr. Hormoz Shariat, of Iran Alive Ministries, will share with us what he is hearing behind the headlines in Iran and will teach us how to pray specifically for the Iranian people. Then, if your life doesn't look the way you expected, that doesn't mean God can't use you. The Christian life often doesn’t feel like the stained-glass images we remember from childhood—happy, holy, hopeful. But God never promised that we won’t have trouble. Rather, He promises to be with us through the storm. Shanno Bream will remind us that nothing is impossible with God.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In this episode of The Andrew Parker Show, Andrew Parker tackles one of the most urgent and polarizing issues of our time: the global fight against the Iranian regime and what it truly means for war, peace, and the future of the Middle East.Is this another endless conflict—or a decisive moment that could reshape the world order?Andrew challenges the prevailing media narrative and lays out a direct argument: this is not a war driven by aggression, but a necessary confrontation with decades of oppression, terrorism, and instability fueled by Iran and its proxies. From Hamas and Hezbollah to global terror networks, the consequences of inaction are laid bare.This episode explores:Why ignoring tyranny allows it to grow strongerThe role of media and misinformation in shaping public perceptionThe economic and geopolitical realities behind rising oil pricesThe responsibility of global leadership in confronting extremist regimesA potential shift in the Middle East: moderates vs. fundamentalistsWhether this moment could bring the region closer to lasting peace than at any time in modern historyAndrew delivers a clear and unfiltered perspective on what he believes is a just war—and why winning it may be essential to securing freedom, stability, and real peace.This is a conversation about more than conflict. It is about the future of liberty in a rapidly changing world.Support the showThe Andrew Parker Show - Politics, Israel & The Law. Follow us on Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube and X.

This edition recorded before the US attacks on Iran. The dust is still settling from Gorton and Denton. Are the Greens playing with fire with their voter targeting? If Keir Starmer's leadership is back in question, how long has he got? Are Reform going full Trump with their whining about “cheating”? And can anyone think of anything at all to say about the Tories? Plus: Is there any appetite for an ICE-style immigration Gestapo like Zia Yusuf wants for his “Deportation Command”?

President Donald Trump's Board of Peace is convening for its first meeting in D.C. But the countries gathering are doing so against the backdrop of a major buildup of U.S. military forces in the Middle East, as Trump continues piling pressure on Iran and mulls options in the region that could include a prolonged military entanglement. After the meeting wraps, Trump will shift gears from foreign to domestic policy when he visits Georgia to deliver the White House's message on affordability to voters. Playbook's Jack Blanchard and White House reporter Megan Messerly discuss the juxtaposition of Trump's agenda and what could come next.
Send us a textPulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Marissa Roth joins Angela Nicholson on the SheClicks Women in Photography Podcast to discuss her extraordinary journey capturing stories of women, conflict and healing for more than four decades.Marissa began her career in Los Angeles, photographing Hollywood stars and rock legends before moving into hard news and ultimately focusing on in-depth documentary work. Her long-form project One Person Crying: Women and War spans 40 years and documents the impact of conflict on women in 17 countries. With powerful sensitivity and unflinching honesty, Marissa shares how this project evolved and why it became a deeply personal exploration of inherited trauma and resilience.In this inspiring episode, she also talks about photographing in Pakistan, living and working in the Philippines, and how a life-changing journey to Tibet opened a new path of peace and creativity. Marissa's reflections on working as a woman in a male-dominated field are both honest and empowering, offering invaluable advice for photographers exploring difficult or emotional subjects.Marissa discusses the importance of instinct in her work, the challenge of finishing long-term projects and how she uses photography to document memory, identity and truth. Her commitment to human rights storytelling and her quiet strength shine through.This episode is a great listen for anyone interested in documentary photography, storytelling, women's rights or using creative work as a tool for social awareness and healing. TakeawaysLong-term documentary projects can evolve organically and often reveal deeper personal meaning over time.Trusting your instinct is essential, especially when photographing emotionally sensitive or complex subjects.Finishing a photography project can be harder than starting one - persistence and clarity of purpose are vital.You do not need to be in an active war zone to tell powerful stories of conflict and human resilience.Your own history and personal experiences can influence the stories you feel compelled to tell.Photography can be both a form of activism and a path to personal peace and understanding.Connect with MarissaWebsiteInstagramSupport the show

Witness to Yesterday (The Champlain Society Podcast on Canadian History)
Larry Ostola speaks with Randall Wakelam and William March about their book On the Wings of War and Peace: The RCAF during the Early Cold War. Bringing together leading researchers on Canadian air power, On the Wings of War and Peace captures the history of the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) during the first decades of the Cold War – a period which marked the zenith of air force accomplishments in peacetime Canada. The volume covers topics that go beyond straightforward flying operations, examining policies that drove operational needs and capabilities and the personnel, technical, and logistical functions that made those operations possible. With contributions written by former RCAF members who have both expert and personal knowledge of their topics, On the Wings of War and Peace brings new perspectives to the RCAF's role in shaping the modern Canadian nation. Randall Wakelam served in the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) as a tactical helicopter pilot and educator for more than four decades; he has taught and written about air power and leadership for the past twenty-five years and is now an associate professor emeritus of the Department of History at Royal Military College. William March is a freelance historian and writer focused on aerospace power history, Canadian military history, and leadership. He previously served as a maritime air navigator in the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) and Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) for over forty years.

When Arthur Arnold resigned from the Moscow Symphony Orchestra in protest of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, he walked away from one of the world's most prestigious symphony stages. This decision would bring him a world away, to Powell River, British Columbia, a town tucked between the ocean and the mountains with a population of 13,000.This town is at a crossroads. Two years ago, its economic heart, a massive pulp and paper mill, shut down. The plant closure left residents wondering what would come next.But some are hoping that the city's past could help define its future. There's a deep history of arts and culture that goes back to the very beginnings of Powell River. And now with people like Arthur Arnold bringing in world class musicians and building an arts hub in town - there's hope that music could help fill the void left by the loss of the pulp and paper industry. Produced by Liz Hoath and Joan Webber. Storylines is part of the CBC Audio Doc Unit (This episode first aired in September, 2025)

This week, instead of zooming in on a single conflict, the GZERO World Podcast looks back on 2025 and takes stock of a world increasingly defined by conflict. Ian Bremmer sits down with CNN Chief International Correspondent Clarissa Ward and Comfort Ero, President and CEO of the International Crisis Group to look at some of the biggest crises of 2025–-both the headline making wars and the ones the world overlooked.Gaza and Ukraine captured the world's attention this year. But at the same time, around 60 other armed conflicts and struggles have been raging around the world. It's the most active period of conflict since the end of World War II. Some are decades-long battles, like Myanmar's devastating civil war. Others are more recent, like the surge of terrorist insurgent groups in Africa's Sahel. But each is a symptom of a broader global order breaking down—driven by weakening institutions, regional rivalries, climate shocks, and failing states. Bremmer sits down first with Clarissa Ward, to discuss her reporting from war zones around the world and then with Comfort Ero, for a global perspective on the conditions that have created so much strife.Host: Ian BremmerGuests: Clarissa Ward, Comfort Ero Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.

He's an independent journalist who has been covering national security for over a decade.And in headlines, Israel and Hamas agree to the first phase of a peace plan, President Donald Trump vows to dismantle ANTIFA, and the price of gold is at an all-time high.Show Notes:Check out Ken's work – https://www.kenklippenstein.com/Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
