All the way from Zimbabwe, our missionary partner, Shepherd Govere, joins Pastor Dan Burrell for a special episode on the LIFETalks podcast. 

Minnesotan dentist Walter Palmer killed Cecil The Lion on 2nd July, 2015; ending the life of a beloved and photogenic big cat, and kickstarting his career as the internet's most vilified trophy hunter. Cecil, who lived in Zimbabwe's Hwange National Park, wasn't just any lion - he was being tracked by Oxford scientists, and was a hit with tourists, known for his majestic black mane and his chill attitude toward safari vehicles. Palmer used a bow and arrow, returning 11 hours later to finish the kill, behead him, and leave the body to rot.  The backlash was explosive. Palmer's dental office, homes, and reputation were targeted with vandalism, hate mail, and death threats; his Yelp reviews are still haunted by Cecil's ghost. While many in Africa were confused by the global outrage, Western celebrities like Jimmy Kimmel, Ricky Gervais, and Ellen turned the story into a viral cause. Palmer claimed ignorance - he didn't know Cecil was special. But critics asked: why be okay with killing a lion at all? In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly consider the ethics of big game hunting; investigate Palmer's trophy-hunting past (and present); and, ten years on from this viral moment, ask if the backlash following Cecil's death led to any positive outcomes…  Further Reading: • ‘Why Cecil the Lion Was So Popular With People' (National Geographic, 2015): https://www.nationalgeographic.com/culture/article/150730-cecil-lion-africa-hunting-science-animals • ‘Cecil the lion's legacy: five years on' (University of Oxford, 2020): https://www.ox.ac.uk/news/2020-12-21-cecil-lion-s-legacy-five-years • ‘Cecil The Lion's Death: What Really Happened Is Revealed In New Book 'Lion Hearted'' (TODAY, 2018): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgwHH9oS3IA Love the show?

Engineering Hope: Ken Atkinson and Brian ReiffIn the heart of rural Zimbabwe, where roads often wash away during the rainy season and clean water is scarce, a powerful partnership has formed — one that blends innovation with compassion. Faculty and students from Cedarville University's School of Engineering and Computer Science have teamed up with Karanda Mission Hospital to tackle these serious infrastructure issues while creating opportunities for ministry.The collaboration began when former missionary Ken Atkinson, now a Cedarville engineering lab technician, returned from Karanda with a heavy heart and a hopeful vision. The hospital faced severe water shortages and needed help.Cedarville students rose to the occasion. They engineered a small-scale municipal water treatment plant, creating a system that could purify river water and save lives — especially in a region where wells had run dry.But the mission didn't stop with water. Seeing how local roads were often impassable, Cedarville students, including recent graduate Brian Reiff, designed and built a pull grader — a massive earthmover that attaches to Karanda's tractor. What began as a senior design project quickly became a symbol of how technical skills can serve a greater purpose.More than just technical accomplishments, these projects are shaping lives. Students who once saw themselves working in labs or offices are now exploring how their skills can be used in missions. Some are even preparing to return to Karanda long-term.From clean water to better roads, from Ohio to Zimbabwe, this collaboration proves that engineering can be a ministry — solving physical problems while planting seeds of hope.Listen to this story of hearts and minds united for a cause greater than themselves on this week's Cedarville Stories podcast.https://share.transistor.fm/s/81f4fd7chttps://youtu.be/Dy3tcM4bcBU

On 1 July 2015, a much-loved lion was killed in Zimbabwe by an American trophy hunter.Black-maned Cecil was one of the star attractions at Hwange National Park. He was baited outside the park and shot with a bow.American dentist Walter Palmer, who reportedly paid a local guide $50,000 to shoot Cecil, was widely condemned. He said he didn't know Cecil was a known local favourite and had relied on the expertise of a local professional guide to carry out a legal hunt.He was cleared of any wrongdoing but the killing became international news and sparked a global debate about trophy hunting and its role in conservation.Prof Andrew Loveridge, who had been tracking Cecil for the Wildlife Conservation Research Unit, tells Vicky Farncombe about the moment he was told the lion had died.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

En av mina – Robins det vill säga – favoritavsnitt är när vi väljer ett land och följer den krokiga vägen fram till dagens situation. Tidigare har det handlar om Albanien eller Zimbabwe, men den här veckan tar vi oss an en av tigerekonomierna: Singapore.Min gissning är att de flesta har ganska dålig koll på Singapores historia. Kanske också på Singapores samtida situation. Men staden – och staten – men den stora hamnen har gått från att vara en av de viktigaste posterna i det brittiska imperiet via en av de stora inspirationerna för det nya Kina till dagens situation som rik, högutbildad och teknokratisk halvdemokrati. Samtliga epoker av Singapores historia är intressant eftersom de alla präglas av en ovanligt levande kulturblandning. I Singapores möts olika kinesiska kulturer med indiska, malajiska och västerländska motsvarigheter.På med haklappen så knäcker vi en chili crab tillsammans!—Läslista:Carlson, Bo Kage, Sydöstasien: elva länder i en turbulent region : [Brunei, Burma, Filippinerna, Indonesien, Kambodja ...], [B.

As we approach the tenth anniversary of the date that Cecil the lion was lured out of the protected area and wounded with an arrow, so that an American recreational big-game trophy hunter could then track the wounded majestic 13-year-old African lion (who lived in Hwange National Park in Zimbabwe) and murder him on July 1st, 2015. Animal activist and best selling author, Eduardo Goncalves, continues his fight to ban trophy hunting with appearances, interviews and three new books. There is just to much disturbing information collected by best selling author, Eduardo Goncalves, to cover in just one book. So, the publisher decided to create a trophy hunters trilogy of books.  So, the publisher repackaged the material into a trilogy - “Twenty Elephants in Seventy-Five Minutes," “Shoot One Lion – Get One Free” & “Mainlining on Heroin.” Eduardo Gonçalves has been a speech-writer for British politicians, run a government department in the Middle East, and helped save the world's most endangered big cat – the Iberian Lynx – from extinction. A former journalist with the BBC, he exposed a major nuclear accident cover-up and secret human radiation experiments. He's a conservationist who has advised the World Wildlife Fund, and has worked with homelessness charities on both sides of the Atlantic. He recently led a major undercover operation to break up Europe's largest dogfighting crime syndicate, and rescued a tiger cub that was about to be shot by a trophy hunter in an enclosure. Despite a serious illness which has led him to become disabled, he has set up an international campaign to stop trophy hunting of wildlife. His work is supported by some of the world's biggest stars as well as leading conservationists and African politicians.     Want to watch: YouTube Meisterkhan Pod (Please Subscribe)

From the BBC World Service: In good news for Japanese consumers, rice prices have fallen to their lowest level in two months. That's after a shortage of the country's staple food, caused by a poor harvest and increased tourist demand. Then, Zimbabwe has moved forward with compensation payments to white farmers whose land was seized during a controversial land reform program more than 20 years ago. And, business leaders are in China for the country's annual economic forum.

Na ruim 40 jaar begint vandaag een reeks hoorzittingen over massamoorden die in de jaren ‘80 plaatsvonden in Zimbabwe. Het is een belangrijke gebeurtenis voor het Ndebele-volk, die hopen op financiële compensatie, maar misschien nog wel belangrijker: erkenning. Er werden duizenden Zimbabwanen vermoord door het regeringsleger. De daders werden nooit berecht en ook kwamen er nooit officiële excuses, maar nu is er dan toch een proces gestart. Waarom heeft dit zo lang geduurd? En waarom vinden die hoorzittingen juist nu tóch plaats? Te gast: journalist Marnix de Bruyne, gespecialiseerd in Afrika.

Jacqueline, now 63 and living in Cape Town, South Africa, was born in Nairobi, Kenya, in 1962, following a relationship between her English-born biological mother, a professional actress on contract to a theatre company in Nairobi, and her Welsh and Irish biological father, a radio announcer in Nairobi. Following Jacqueline's birth, and the abandonment of her and her biological mother by her biological father, her biological mother followed him to Zimbabwe, but he refused involvement or responsibility. At Jacqueline's biological mother's father's "pleading" with her to "keep the baby", she returned to her acting career, subjecting Jacqueline to 16 months of severe abuse and neglect, which resulted in her being adopted at 16 months in Zimbabwe. While her physical needs were very well met within her adoptive family, her emotional needs were neglected, her manifest trauma being strictly discouraged, and the emotional abuse was perpetuated. Following a lifetime of fear/anxiety, specifically relationship-related, and recurring severe despair/depression, Jacqueline's belief, and message to fellow adoptees and healthcare professionals working with adoption-related and general childhood trauma, is this: sometimes the trauma is too early, too severe and too prolonged for healing to be possible, but the cycle of abuse can be broken. Jacqueline lives the proof that acceptance, compassion, and forgiveness are possible. She has broken the cycles of neglect and abuse, evident in her relationship with her daughter and son, with whom she has a relationship of deep love, mutual respect, and much joy and care.Season 11: Adoptee Memoirs - books in order:Practically Still a Virgin by Monica HallYou Can't Get Rid of Me by Jesse Scott and Keri AultUnspoken by Liz HarvieSign up for our mailing list to get updates and the Eventbrite for our September 12th & 13th Washington, D.C.

Calvary Elder, Freeman Chakara, was born in Zimbabwe and all but orphaned as a young boy. After committing his life to Christ as an early teen, he faced quite a bit of persecution from his extended family. But the one thing that has been true throughout Freeman's life is that God is faithful to provide. Today he is sharing the story of how God brought him from a small village in Africa to where he is today—a Doctor of Psychology with his own local practice, where he lives out the Great Commission by caring for people's emotional and spiritual wellbeing.

Olympic history at the IOC: Thomas Bach passes presidency to Kirsty Coventry On Olympic Day, which takes place on 23 June each year to commemorate the founding of the modern Olympic Games in 1894 based on the initiative by Baron Pierre de Coubertin, Bach symbolically passed the key for Olympic House from one Olympic champion to another in a moment of historical significance. Coventry, a double Olympic champion in swimming from Zimbabwe (2004, 2008), was elected as the 10th IOC President at the 144th IOC Session this March in Olympia, Greece. She is the first woman and the first African ever to hold the IOC's highest office and has been elected for a term of eight years. The key, designed by Spanish artist André Ricard, who also created the torch of the Olympic Games Barcelona 1992 and the Olympic fire crucible at the Olympic Museum, was first passed during the handover from Juan Antonio Samaranch to Jacques Rogge in 2001. More than 700 assembled guests – including IOC Members, athletes, Olympic Movement representatives, delegates from international organisations, political leaders and IOC staff – witnessed an emotional ceremony. When the key was handed over, the audience rose for a standing ovation. A standing ovation also followed when Thomas Bach received the Olympic Order in Gold from Kirsty Coventry. The Olympic Order is the highest honour granted by the International Olympic Committee to individuals who have rendered outstanding services to the Olympic cause through their contribution to the Olympic Movement.

L'Afrique du Sud a signé en 2014 un accord avec le Mozambique, pour s'accorder sur la stratégie de conservation du parc Kruger qui chevauche la frontière, et fait partie, avec le Zimbabwe, du nouveau parc transfrontalier du Grand Limpopo. Ce genre d'accord permet notamment de s'accorder sur les standards de sécurité face au braconnage. Une collaboration qui permet aussi le déplacement d'animaux sauvages d'un pays à un autre, pour repeupler des parcs dans le besoin, et rééquilibrer l'écosystème. C'est dans ce contexte que l'Afrique du Sud vient ce mois de juin de donner dix rhinocéros noirs au Mozambique qui en manque cruellement. Billie est un rhinocéros sud-africain. Une femelle d'environ une tonne placée dans un box en métal, direction le Mozambique. « Normalement, on ne donne pas de noms à nos animaux, mais ils en auront un pour le transport. Si quelque chose se passe mal sur la route, on doit pouvoir les identifier », explique Vuyiswa Radebe, qui travaille pour Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife, l'organisation qui gère les parcs publics de la région. Elle est venue assister à cette opération hors norme. « Le déplacement en lui-même est très éprouvant, mais on sait pourquoi on le fait, c'est pour leur survie. Nous avons besoin d'avoir plein de petites Billie partout dans le monde, et j'ai hâte d'entendre leurs histoires », confie-t-elle. Et c'est tout l'objectif. L'Afrique du Sud, et particulièrement ce parc Hluhluwe, est le berceau des rhinocéros africains. Antony Alexander et la fondation Peace Park coordonnent donc des relocalisations d'animaux sauvages. « Peace Parks n'a commencé à soutenir le gouvernement mozambicain qu'il y a dix ans. On devait d'abord prendre le temps de rétablir des bons systèmes de sécurité là-bas. Et de s'assurer que l'environnement était adapté pour faire venir des animaux sauvages », raconte-t-il. Des transferts qui se multiplient ces dernières années, notamment grâce à des techniques qui évoluent, explique Kester Vickery, de la fondation Conservation Solution. Il rentre à peine du Rwanda, où il a déplacé 70 rhinocéros sud-africains en avion. « Nous pouvons maintenant déplacer des animaux en gros groupes sur une durée de 48 heures, en toute sécurité. C'est plus ou moins le temps qu'il faudra pour déplacer ces rhinos jusqu'à Zinave », détaille-t-il. Zinave, c'est le parc mozambicain qui s'apprête à recevoir Billie et les autres. Pendant près de 40 ans, ce parc n'avait plus aucun rhinocéros. Ils sont de retour depuis peu grâce à une autre opération de ce genre. Drapeau mozambicain brodé sur sa veste, le vétérinaire Hagnasio Chiponde s'apprête à prendre la route : « Je représente la Wildlife Mozambique Alliance, et le pays en général. Nous cherchons à développer notre population de rhinos. Je suis fier de faire partie de l'équipe. » Les dix rhinocéros sont arrivés sains et saufs à Zinave. L'objectif, c'est donc de faire grandir cette population, pour ensuite en envoyer dans d'autres parcs du Mozambique, et ainsi repeupler le pays entier.  À lire aussiRéintroduction de dix rhinocéros au Mozambique: une opération à haut risque [2/3]

What happens when a “nobody” stands up to a dictator and his regime? In this episode of Cut to the Chase: Podcast, Gregg speaks with Zimbabwean activist, author, and pastor, Evan Mawarire. Evan is a courage speaker, movement builder, and changemaker inspiring nations around the world to stand up to injustice and end poverty and corruption. He's also the courageous voice behind Zimbabwe's #ThisFlag movement. What started as a heartfelt video in his church office became a nationwide call to action against corruption, violence, and dictatorship. Evan opens up about the emotional toll of resistance, surviving arrests and torture, and the lessons he's learned about courage, forgiveness, and what it really means to spark change. Whether you're standing up to a regime or speaking truth in your community, this conversation will inspire you to take that first brave step. What to expect in this episode: The viral church office video that sparked a national uprising in Zimbabwe Courage Under Dictatorship: How Evan Mawarire turned fear into fuel for justice Small Acts, Big Waves: Why even one voice can ignite a movement From Silent Outrage to Public Action: How collective participation builds momentum Lessons from Mandela & MLK: The enduring power of nonviolent resistance Setbacks, Survival, and Escaping Prison: What Evan's journey teaches about resilience and leadership Redefining Victory: Why starting the fight is as important as winning it Forgiveness vs. Justice: How Evan separates healing from accountability   Key Actionable Takeaways: Start Small, Spark Big: A single video from a church office launched a national movement—never underestimate the power of one voice taking a stand. Courage Means Acting Anyway: Fear is real, but change begins when you choose to act in spite of it, especially when it matters most. Nonviolence Creates Pressure: Peaceful resistance—through protests, petitions, or public messaging—can shift narratives and mobilize international support. Sustain the Fight with Community: True movements are built through collective participation—invite others in, empower them, and lead with transparency.

Zambia's former president, Edgar Lungu, reportedly left instructions that his political rival and current president Hakainde Hichilema "should not come anywhere near his body". Edgar Lungu died on the 5th of June and ever since, his family and the Zambian government have been locked in a tussle over his funeral. However, following days of negotiations, arrangements for his burial have now been finalised. This isn't the first time Zambia has experienced burial disputes for deceased former heads of state, including for its independence president, Kenneth Kaunda. Is there no legislation to guide these eventualities? Lawyer John Sangwa provides the answers.Also, why there is a petition to ban pit bull dogs in Zimbabwe?

Today, we highlight Cameroon, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius, Morocco, Nigeria, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Glorious Lord in the Church around the world. Thank you all for listening. We are looking at the earthly conversations Jesus had, as recorded in the gospels, to see if we are able to glean anything useful for our prayer lives. Our latest segment comes from John chapter 2 and the wedding party at Cana. We find not only is He the God of the impossible, but He can accomplish multiple things through one prayer.The prayer of Mary, "They have no wine." Began a miracle, at least 180 gallons of good wine. Although the miracle was a "quiet one," it accomplished all Mary had prayed, but it set the beginning of the evangelist team God would use to turn the world upside down. "This beginning of His signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory, and His disciples believed in Him." John 2:11Our So What?When we cast our prayers to the heart of our God, we scarce know how those prayers may be used in the plan of the Almighty. Therefore, we heed then the exhortations of E.M. Bounds and the apostle Paul:"Nothing is well done without prayer for the simple reason that it leaves God out of the account." " Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all to the glory of God." 1 Corinthians 10:31Brethren, let's pray for one another. "What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more."

Welcome to The Lindsey Anderson Show! Today, we are diving into a topic that is absolutely crucial for every entrepreneur: how to make decisions quickly and confidently. As business owners, we often get stuck in overthinking, waiting for the "perfect" moment, or second-guessing ourselves. The problem? When we hesitate, our business, our bank accounts, and even our social media growth stay stagnant.In today's episode, I'm talking with Rugare Gomo, an expert in decision-making, who shares his powerful strategies for breaking through hesitation and making fast, impactful decisions in business. We'll explore how embracing your values and understanding your core beliefs can transform how you make choices, both big and small.

The key to success is making powerful decisions quickly and confidently.The Power of Core Beliefs: Our core beliefs are often shaped by external influences, but they're not necessarily the truth. When we recognize these beliefs as stories, we can rewrite them and take bold actions.Overcoming the Fear of Making Mistakes: Many entrepreneurs are afraid of making the wrong decision and stay stuck in indecision. Once you understand that mistakes are part of growth, it becomes easier to make decisions with confidence.Live Your Values: When you clarify your values and align them with your actions, decision-making becomes easier because your actions are always aligned with what you truly want.Clarify Your Vision: A clear, actionable vision—one that aligns with your values—will guide you through tough decisions and help you take bold action. It's about becoming who you truly want to be, not just aiming for what you think you should achieve.Rugare's Decision-Making Framework:Pause: When faced with a decision, the first thing to do is pause. This allows you to clear your mind and connect with your deeper vision and values.Acknowledge Your Core Beliefs: Recognize the beliefs that are holding you back. These are often stories based on past experiences, not facts. Once you see them as stories, you can rewrite them.Clarify Your Vision and Values: Get clear on what you truly want to achieve in both your personal and professional life. Let your values guide your decision-making.Journal Your Thoughts: Journaling is a powerful tool to help you process your thoughts, uncover hidden fears, and gain clarity on what's truly important to you.Take Action: Once you've reflected and identified what matters most, it's time to make a decision and take action. Don't wait for perfection—move forward and trust the process.Reflect and Learn: After making decisions, take time to review them. What worked? What didn't? Use these insights to refine your decision-making and keep improving.The Challenges Entrepreneurs Face:As entrepreneurs, we often get caught up in the hustle and grind, overthinking every move.

Energy with a grain of saltResearchers have developed a new sodium metal powered fuel cell with up to triple the output for its weight of a lithium-ion battery. The team from  MIT, including Yet-Ming Chiang, think these fuel cells could have enormous potential for electric vehicles — including flight. They say sodium can be electrically produced from salt on a large scale to facilitate this technology. The research was published in the journal Joule.Plants hear their pollinators, and produce sweet nectar in responseA new study has found that plants can respond to the distinctive vibrations of pollinating insects by activating sugar-producing genes to produce rich nectar. In contrast they respond to the sound of nectar-stealing non-pollinators by cutting back on sugar. Francesca Barbero, from the University of Turin in Italy, presented this work at a recent joint meeting of the Acoustical Society of America and 25th International Congress on Acoustics.Penguin poop helps create the cooling clouds over Antarctica Penguin guano is rich in ammonia, and when it accumulates in penguin rookeries in Antarctica, that ammonia is released into the atmosphere, encouraging cloud production.

In this episode, Dr. Dixon Chibanda explores from benches to breakthroughs: a new approach to mental health. He explains why storytelling, radical empathy, and solving daily-life problems often outperform medication-first approaches; how three simple steps—opening the mind, uplifting, strengthening—turn elders into community healers; and why hope, not symptom checklists, is the truest measure of success. Along the way, you’ll hear how ancestral wisdom blends with clinical science, how labels can hinder more than help, and how the very grandmothers Dixon trained ended up transforming him. Key Takeaways: Discussion on anxiety and its management through personal values and positive actions. Importance of human connection and storytelling in mental health care. Overview of the Friendship Bench initiative and its origins in Zimbabwe. Role of trained grandmothers in providing mental health support within communities. Need for accessible mental health care and addressing social determinants of health. Integration of Western psychiatric principles with African cultural practices. Significance of empathy and nonverbal communication in building therapeutic relationships. Training process for grandmothers in cognitive behavioral therapy and effective communication.
