  Many Men Think That Women Are Stupid 26.09.2026 29min

  God created women for a specific purpose. She is the best hub and manager of the family. She is the best companion for her husband and the best mentor and confidant for her children. She manages and leads the house and the home environment in the best possible way. She pays proper and comprehensive attention to the education of her children. Understanding and conscious women pay special attention to their husbands and children and set goals for themselves even after marriage. Wise women do not compete with others and do not compare their lives and those of their husbands with others. Rather, they set small steps to achieve their goals and desires and strive for them. Understanding women know that if they do not have a goal in life, they will gradually experience feelings such as fatigue, self-blame, etc. So we see that no woman is stupid.

  A Righteous Person Does Not Seek Counsel From the Wicked. 21.09.2026 29min

  Those who strive to constantly obey God's will are like flourishing, fruitful trees with deep roots. The psalmists praise God for His righteousness; there are hymns extolling Him as the Creator, Provider, and Redeemer of humanity. God is Almighty and always acts at the right time; He is sovereign over all circumstances. When we feel powerless, we can seek God's help; we can always pray for His deliverance and protection. The Psalms contain profound prayers; when we confess our sins and turn away from them, God forgives us. The psalmist emphasises the timeless theme of blessedness. This verse tells us what to avoid: associating with sinners and those who mock God. The Lord is righteous, and when we trust in Him, He grants peace to our hearts. Chaff is light and easily blown away by a gentle breeze, whereas the winnowed grain falls back to the ground; the chaff represents the life of the unbeliever, aimlessly tossed about, while the grain represents the life of the believer, who can be used by God. The wicked may prosper in worldly terms, but God assures us that a day of judgement will come for them. God does not judge people based on race, gender, or nationality.

  Women Struggle With Poverty 19.09.2026 29min

  Don't you think that the source of many shortcomings is unemployment and superstition? During the conversation between Karima and Qamar, you heard an example of superstitious thoughts that caused the tragedy of separation between a husband and wife. Let's think about these things for a moment, even if briefly. I hope that the day will come when the people of our society will also take firm steps towards the development of knowledge and well-being.

  Living Water for Thirsty Souls 15.09.2026 29min

  Thus, this incident may serve as a reminder of the fragility of human life and the need for water to survive; however, one should not conclude that the individual’s death implies a lack of the "water of life." The Bible offers no such judgement regarding the fate of those who lose their lives in accidents. Jesus’ message is that, just as water is essential for physical life, He presents Himself as the source of spiritual life for all who come to Him. That young Afghan man perished from physical thirst on the plains of Nimroz—a need that cannot be met without water. Jesus Christ speaks of spiritual thirst—a deeper need that is satisfied through faith in Him and a relationship with God.

  Ignorance and Illiteracy Have Made Life Difficult for Girls. 12.09.2026 29min

  Literacy is known as the most basic and essential part of life and an absolute necessity in human societies. Illiteracy in today's world is an unfortunate phenomenon, hated by nations and governments, and everyone is trying to remove this problematic virus from societies and make literacy education a serious necessity to ward off the difficulties and challenges in their path. In Afghanistan, 50 percent of men and 80 percent of women are illiterate. Afghanistan has one of the highest illiteracy rates in the world. The war, poverty, and misery that people face today are due to illiteracy.

  Do We Have the Right to Judge Whether Someone Is in Heaven or Hell? 10.09.2026 29min

  This is a warning to all human beings to avoid judging and passing judgement on the actions of others. Oh, how hasty we are in judging others! And oh, how righteous and pure we are in our own eyes, and how mistaken we are when we think that we are so wise, pure and pious that we allow ourselves to judge the actions and thoughts of others! The truth is that by judging the actions of others, we prove one truth, and that is that our eyes are seeing to the sins of others and blind to our own countless sins. This judgmentalism unfortunately afflicts many. Unfortunately, sometimes we like to make decisions for God and send people to hell or heaven. So we should not worry about our loved ones who die, because we have a God who is just and full of grace and love. Let us always remember that God is the judge and He makes the final decision. We should not fear any man, not even Satan. You should only fear God. Humans and evil spirits can only destroy the body, but only God can destroy the soul. Only God can give eternal life, and only He can take it away. The soul is destroyed when it is sent to hell, where it will be separated from God for eternity. Believers in Christ need not fear man or any kind of torture, for nothing can separate them from God.

  Proposal to Eleven-Year-Old Sima 05.09.2026 29min

  In Afghanistan, especially under the Taliban rule, with their bans, changes in laws, and the worsening economic crisis, more and more families are forcing their young daughters into early marriage to pay off their debts or put food on the table. Children who should be going to school and learning, instead start living with men who, from a age perspective, are like their fathers or sometimes like their grandfathers. The reason for this injustice is the patriarchal society and poverty.

  Esther Devised a Plan to Save Her People. What About You? 05.09.2026 29min

  Esther and Mordecai believed that God would deliver His people, but they did not sit back and do nothing. God is sovereign over all things, but He works through man. That is why we must participate in the fulfilment of His will, not just watch and pray. Many people believe in God’s promises, but are not willing to take action. After the decree to kill the Jews was issued, Mordecai and Esther could have despaired and thought only of their own salvation, or they could have waited for God to intervene. Therefore, they seized the opportunity and took action. So how can you be saved from death? Not only is the body healed from physical illness through the name of Jesus, but more importantly, their soul is also saved from spiritual illness, which is sin. Some ask: Why do Christians preach so much? Why don’t they let people follow their religion? The answer to this group of people is that salvation is only possible through faith in Christ. Jesus came to save sinners like you and me. If this same Jesus saves us and lives within us, then we will be eager to share the good news of salvation with other lost sinners.

  Nasrin's Bitter Story 29.08.2026 29min

  In human society, and especially in our society, poverty and backwardness usually provide the causes of suffering and pain for people, especially women. In our modern society, women are oppressed and imprisoned within the walls of their homes under the name of Sharia, culture, patriarchy, and jealousy. They have been deprived of all rights. They have neither the right to education, nor the right to work, nor the right to wear clothes of their own choice, they have been deprived of all the rights and entitlements that God has given to women. If we look carefully, God has created women for a purpose. A woman is the best wife for a man, a mother for her children, and the best sister for her brother. Therefore, we must respect women.

  Your People Are My People and Your God Is My God! 26.08.2026 29min

  But the book of Ruth is a different story told in the Bible. A drought in the land of Israel was so severe that Elimelech and his family were forced to leave their home and migrate. Then Naomi, the wife of Elimelech, faced many hardships. When she left her homeland, she had a husband, children, and security, all of whom later died. Ruth loved her sister-in-law Naomi. Recently widowed, she asked Naomi to let her go wherever she went. She said from the bottom of her heart, “Your people will be my people, and your God my God!” The book of Ruth is also a story of God’s grace in difficult circumstances. Ruth’s story takes place during the period of the Judges, a period characterised by disobedience, idolatry, and oppression. Much like the times and periods of Afghanistan, injustice was seen. But no matter how hopeless the world may seem, there are always people who follow God. God uses anyone who gives himself to Him and is willing to do His will. Read, listen, and be encouraged by this book and story. God’s hand is at work in the world. He wants to use you. Just as God used Naomi, He can use you to lead your family and friends to Him. We begin as hopeless, rebellious strangers with no part in the kingdom of God. Then, when we risk everything by believing in Jesus Christ, God saves us, forgives our sins, rebuilds our lives, and gives us blessings that last forever.

  How Can We Accept the Women in Our Family as Our Equals and Consider Their Suffering as Our Own? 22.08.2026 29min

  Treating women appropriately is not only about respecting them, but it also gives you character. Respecting women means accepting human equality, valuing independence and individuality, and appreciating their roles in society and family. This important principle is rooted in human morality and men's views of women. Men and women were created by God. So we must respect God's creation. We should not look down on women and girls, because women are the Centre of the home and family. We should listen carefully to women's words and ideas, and respect and love them for their gender. : At home, in the workplace, and in society, we should have true companionship and empathy with women.

  Why Do Others Subconsciously Harass Us? 20.08.2026 29min

  Hannah had been barren for many years, and this brought her great suffering, especially because Elkanah’s other wife, Peninnah, was harassing her. However, she did not turn away from God, but went to the tabernacle of the Lord at Shiloh and prayed with tears and humility. Hannah is an outstanding example of faith and trust in God in the Bible. Her story is told in the first chapter of 1 Samuel. Instead of despairing, she took refuge in God. She was willing to offer the most precious gift she had received from God again. After Eli the priest blessed her, she went away in peace.** The Bible says that her face was no longer as sad as before, even before she knew that her prayer would be answered. This was a sign of her faith that her prayer would be heard. So Hannah’s faith was not only in her request, but also in her peace before she saw God’s answer and in her faithfulness after receiving it. These two characteristics are a profound example of trust in God in the Bible. Where and who do you trust and turn to in times of hardship and persecution from others?
