You stand on a battlefield, surrounded by an enemy that you've been told doesn't exist. This is a classic example of a PSYOP a psychological operation, a mission to change what you believe by feeding you information that is inaccurate, incomplete, or an outright lie. This PSYOP is one of many by entities who've been at war with God since the Garden of Eden.

As sidekicks to their parents' and churches' ambitions, missionary kids (MKs) face questions many white Christians eventually ask: about God's calling, sacrifice, faith, privilege, racism, abuse, and what belonging means.

Christianity in England is in decline. Congregations are dwindling and ever fewer young people believe. Should we merely shrug our shoulders and accept this as inevitable and even healthy, or is something important being lost? Bijan Omrani argues that this decline is the most momentous change to occur in English history. He shows how a religion that has been part of our national story for over 1700 years was instrumental in the creation and development of the English nation, its codes of law and morality, and its structures of government and kingship.

Adoniram Judson was unique in his time. He and his wife were among the first missionaries to be sent out from the United States, and his entire ministry was a series of intense mountains and valleys. Adoniram showed a level of commitment and willingness to push through suffering and hard times far beyond what the vast majority of Christians would be willing to endure. His legacy as a pioneer on multiple levels is one that will last through this earth’s remaining time and into the heavenly library. Despite unimaginable hardships, Judson's work bore fruit that continues to impact lives today.

In 2012, Steve Green, billionaire and president of Hobby Lobby, announced a purchase of a Biblical artefact—a fragment of papyrus carrying lines from Paul's letter to the Romans, and dated to the second century CE. Noted scholar Roberta Mazza was stunned. When was this piece discovered, and how could Green acquire such a rare item? The answers, which Mazza spent the next ten years uncovering, came as a shock: the fragment had come from a famous collection held at Oxford University, and its rightful owners had no idea it had been sold.

Rooted in liberation theology and social activism, it has played a crucial role in social movements and cultural identity. However, while the Black church continues to be a source of strength, it also mirrors the complexities and contradictions of the communities it serves.

È trascorso più di un secolo da quando a Fatima, nel 1917, la Vergine Maria apparve a Lucia Dos Santos e ai suoi cuginetti Francisco e Jacinta Marto. L'Europa era sprofondata in un periodo buio, martoriata dalla Grande guerra. Mentre Dio sembrava più che mai distante, la Madonna si mostrò ai tre pastorelli per confidare loro un Segreto: compiendo il volere del Cielo, l'umanità poteva salvarsi. Una responsabilità così grande in mani tanto piccole: Lucia aveva appena dieci anni, eppure la sua vita era già segnata.

Possono le testimonianze dei sopravvissuti, le efferatezze dei carnefici e tutti gli orrori della Shoah trasformarsi in indelebili lezioni per le generazioni di oggi e di domani?
