Sex. In a world overwhelmingly obsessed with it, why is the church so silent about it? While our secular culture twists, perverts, cheapens, and idolizes sex, there are gaping holes in the church's guidance of young people. The result is generations of sexually illiterate people drowning in the repercussions of overwhelming sin struggles. Enough is enough, says Mo Isom. With raw vulnerability and a bold spirit, she shares her own sexual testimony, calling listeners back to God's original design for sex - a way to worship and glorify him.

Bønderne i Paradis Amt har længe levet under fattige og svære kår. Regeringen har opfordret dem til at dyrke hvidløg, men overproduktion gør det umuligt at komme af med afgrøderne. Magtesløse må bønderne se deres høst gå til på marken under den brændende sol. Deres utilfredshed eksploderer til sidst i et voldsomt oprør, men i den nådesløse bølge af efterfølgende massearrestationer går ingen fri, hverken familier, venner og elskende.

Mo Gawdat befasst sich schon seit Jahren mit dem Thema Glück und was dieses ausmacht. Als Entwickler und Leiter in Googles Denkfabrik, Google (X), geht er das Problem eben wie ein solcher an. Er prüft alle Fakten und sucht die Logik dahinter.
