Combining the expertise of a biblical scholar and a missionary practitioner, Misreading Scripture with Individualist Eyes is an essential guidebook to the cultural background of the Bible and how it should inform our reading. E. Randolph Richards and Richard James explore deep social structures of the ancient Mediterranean - kinship, patronage, and brokerage-along with their key social tools-honor, shame, and boundaries - that the biblical authors lived in and lie below the surface of each text.

Corruption rarely begins with a suitcase of cash. It begins with a favor no one questions, a shortcut explained away, a loyal insider protected, and an institution more concerned with reputation than truth. The Architecture of Corruption is a sharp narrative nonfiction investigation into how scandals grow inside governments, political networks, public agencies, and powerful organizations. It shows how secrecy, patronage, weak oversight, procurement abuse, immunity battles, and quiet internal compromises turn ordinary systems into self-protecting empires. Blending investigative journalism, ...

Le patronage a connu un véritable succès ces derniers siècles avant de tomber en désuétude. On comptait au 19e siècle près de 16 000 patronages en France, contre un peu plus de 150 aujourd’hui. Mais ces tiers-lieux éducatifs pour enfants connaissent un nouvel essor depuis quelques années et attirent toujours plus d’enfants et d’adolescents. Ces centres de loisirs chrétiens sont désormais ouverts à tous et affichent une volonté de s’imposer en alternative solide et sérieuse aux centres classiques.Retrouvez tous nos contenus, articles et épisodes sur rcf.frSi vous avez ...

In this episode of If I were the Minister for Education, I unpack the Department of Education’s primary school survey and the headline claim that 40% of parents in denominational primary schools would prefer their school to be multidenominational. I admit I was wrong to assume parents would simply vote for the status quo, and I argue this figure is a remarkable tipping point, especially given how quickly some commentators tried to minimise it by claiming it represents only 16% overall. I question why only partial statistics were released, warn how narratives harden before full data emerges, ...

Jeffrey Epstein’s involvement with the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) is one of the most underexamined yet telling indicators of how deeply entrenched he was in elite policy-making circles. Epstein donated at least $350,000 to the CFR and was listed as a member of its donor roster for years, despite his 2008 conviction for soliciting sex from a minor. His name appeared alongside respected diplomats, corporate executives, and scholars—legitimizing him in the eyes of the foreign policy establishment. Even after his initial conviction, the CFR accepted donations from Epstein-linked ...

Mercredi jour des enfants, certains iront passer la journée au patronage. Près de 300 "patros" accueillent cette rentrée les enfants après l’école en France. Les patronages, ces centres aérés chrétiens sont un moyen de garde quand les parents travaillent, un lieu d’étude pour faire les devoirs, un grand club de jeu et de sport avec en prime le catéchisme… Le principe remonte au début du XIXème siècle avec des figures comme saint Jean Bosco. Depuis le années 60 les patronages s’étaient un peu éteints. Mais ils ressuscitent ces dernières années avec cette devise : "ici ...

Efforts to increase patronage on Auckland Transport services are in line for a boost. Auckland's mayor is including an immediate $20 million public transport injection in his final budget proposal. AT Chief Executive Dean Kimpton says they hope the current 80 million passengers a year will rise another 20 million, by later this year or early next. "Everything we're doing is focused on bringing it back to the 100 million, which is around about where we were in 2019 before Covid struck."
