    Fighting for Sabbath rest

    When Gerald Groff took his job at the Post Office in 2012, taking Sundays off wasn’t an issue. USPS didn’t deliver on Sundays. Then about a decade ago Amazon decided people simply had to have their gadgets and groceries delivered on Sundays and hired USPS to help. Suddenly Groff had a choice: keep his job or his convictions. He decided to try for both–and the case is still not settled, exactly. Today on Doubletake, a special legal episode about a mailman, his faith, and the byzantine legal rules that define religious liberty in this country. Support WORLD News Group at wng.org/donate

    Intended for Evil, Part I

    The communist Khmer Rouge marched into Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia, on April 17, 1975. Radha Manickam, a new Christian, watched them arrive from the balcony of his parents’ apartment.  It was Radha’s first exposure to the Khmer Rouge. The leader of the Khmer Rouge was Pol Pot, led the most violent and brutal government in modern history. In its doomed attempt to create an agrarian utopia, between 1975 and 1979 Pol Pot’s regime murdered over 1.7 million people. Many were beaten to death or executed. Others starved to death or died of fatigue or some wretched disease. Mao and Stalin’s Communist regimes killed far more people. But no other government has destroyed nearly a quarter of its own citizens. Today Pol Pot is largely forgotten. But he and the Khmer Rouge are well worth remembering. Because the ideas that formed the Khmer Rouge are still with us today. Also worth remembering are the stories of those who survived. People like Radha Manickam. We’ll be telling his story over the next three episodes. It is in many ways a brutal story. One of loss and grief and terror. But it’s also a story of hope and grace. And ultimately, redemption. This series is based on my recent interviews with Radha, along with my 2016 book about his experiences. The book and this series are titled “Intended for Evil” by Les Sillars.
