Culture in Conflict | Michael Ramsden 

I would LOVE to hear Micheal discuss how this all ties in with the events around the world in this month (June 2020) :)

So miss you.

There is a more recent RU-vid called charting a course in the post Covid world which has been uploaded by Christian embassy of Canada. It speaks about the sort of leaders we need right now by looking at Moses. Also, in the discussion, Michael talks about the ways in which young people can rise to present challenges.

How are there not more "likes" on this??

While I agree with the whole message, there is a question of accuracy, the people of Kosovo in question are simply Serbians, the man Lazar in quesion was fighting against the Ottoman Empire, that whole conflict is deeply rooted in Serbian history and that battle in the 14th century was celebrated by other Christian churches as a victory for Christianity even if historical accounts suggest that Serbia lost that battle as most of the people invloved have died. Just a bit more than 50 years after that battle, the Ottoman Empire took over whole Serbia and kept fighting against the Austrian-Hungarian Empire for around 400 years. The man that shot the Austrian-Hungarian heir of the throne didn't do it because of what happened to the historical figure of Lazar at all, this is simply not an accurate anecdote, and while it's totally true that Serbia had a whole bunch of bad people, one of them being the president Milosevic, his motives weren't religious at all and in the end of the day the whole conflict in Kosovo also resulted in around 200 churches being burned down to the ground, the whole story of that region is a bit more complicated than just the notion of where one man was burried.

Where are you today? Jiyoung and daughter
