Divine Collisions | The Daily Wire
The following is an exclusive excerpt from Why I Stand, by Jonathan Isaac, available now . I met the man who would champion my faith investigation—and challenge the part of me that was getting in the way—while I was injured, in the beginning of my rookie year. One day as I waited for the elevator in the lobby of my apartment, a man with a thick Bahamian accent stopped me and said, “I know how you can be great.” I I thought it was an odd thing to say. I could tell he didn’t know who I was just by his remark. “Tell me.” Without missing beat, he continued, “You have to know Jesus.” I groaned on the inside. Was this really happening? It felt like when you’ve just let your guard down with someone and then they immediately try to sell you something. Like a multivitamin or an essential oil that has changed their life. If it was Jesus this guy was selling, thankfully I could stop him right there. “Yeah, I’m a Christian, so…” my voice trailed off hoping that’s all he … [Read more...] about Divine Collisions | The Daily Wire

Shani Warren: Donald Robertson found guilty of murdering woman whose body was found in lake 35 years ago
A man has been found guilty of the "lady in the lake" murder of a woman in 1987. Donald Robertson was convicted by unanimous verdict at Reading Crown Court of murdering 26-year-old Shani Warren, and of kidnapping and raping a teenager in 1981, decades after his "horrendous" crimes. The serial attacker, 66, was charged last year after a police cold case team found new DNA evidence linking him to the death of Ms Warren in April 1987. The body of Ms Warren, who lived in Stoke Poges in Buckinghamshire, was found bound and gagged in a lake in Taplow Lake on the Easter weekend that year. Her car had been abandoned in a layby on the A4, with bin bags containing remnants of grass after she had recently mowed the lawn, as well as an Easter egg in the driver's footwell. Advertisement Robertson did not attend the trial and the dock was empty on Tuesday as a jury found him guilty of both crimes. He was convicted of the false imprisonment, indecent assault and … [Read more...] about Shani Warren: Donald Robertson found guilty of murdering woman whose body was found in lake 35 years ago
Europa League final: The fall and rise of Rangers
Any club that survives for 150 years knows the highs and the lows. At Ibrox, the highs have seen dizzying spells of domination, the lows have been as bleak as they get. It is though the last decade in which Rangers have added a chapter that might be called "the fall and rise" but that would not quite capture the magnitude of the turmoil Rangers found themselves in back in 2012. The hordes of buoyant Rangers fans landing in Seville ahead of the Europa League final were in a very different place 10 years ago - there were tears outside the gates of Ibrox as the news was confirmed that this famous old club was to be liquidated. The finances were a mess - creative accounting built on quicksand had seen the club borrow more than it could afford. For the fans, the slow car crash that played out at Ibrox was painful to watch. As you might expect, their rivals delighted in the club's spectacular collapse. Advertisement Administration led to liquidation.

PR expert Lida said: “One of the things we’ve learnt is you sometimes don’t get to have it both ways. “When you think about royal life and pageantry of the institution, there’s lots of rules that come with that and there’s protocols and there’s rewards. “But celebrity also has rules and protocols and rewards, it … [Read more...] about Royal Family news- Prince Harry & Meghan ‘still pushing for royal life’ despite not wanting the ‘association’ with them
