the Lord manifests in your life today in unus usual ways,
through and from unusual people. I pray for help to

people who won't fully understand why they're helping you. I
pray that by the end of the day you have
three or four testimonies of how unusual things good things
undeniably God, things have happened for you, unexpectedly and through

(01:27):
unusual people. I pray that by the time you get

still loves you, that God is still with you, and
that God is.

Still for you.

Speaker 5 (01:50):
Bishop.

Speaker 6 (01:50):
It's Thursday, November twenty eeth year. Is what's going on
in the news. President Donald Trump has signed bill ordering
the Justice Department to release its long protected cases files
on Jeffrey Epstein. The move triggers a thirty day deadline
for the DJ to turn over roughly one hundred thousand
pages from its investigations into Epstein and its former partner,

(02:11):
Elaine Maxwell.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
The release also.

Speaker 6 (02:14):
Includes internal DJ communications about Epstein, his associates, and his
twenty nineteen death then federal custody. Now, of course, some
records will remain sealed.

Speaker 7 (02:24):
Now.

Speaker 6 (02:25):
The law allows the DJ to withhold victim's personal information
in each child abuse material and documents deemed classified for
national security or foreign policy.

Speaker 8 (02:35):
Reasons.

Speaker 6 (02:36):
In other news, a new mom is speaking out after
she says a hospital sent her home while she was
an active laborer. Twenty three year old Mercedes Wells says
she knew the baby was coming, but staff at Franciscan
Health Crowned Point Hospital in Indiana fortally told her.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
She wasn't far enough along.

Speaker 6 (02:54):
Eight minutes after leaving, her husband was delivering their baby
in front in the front seat of their truck.

Speaker 9 (03:01):
I was in a scruciating pain. She see me in
pain and agony, and I guess she still perceives me
to not be in labor. I was stripped of my
dignity as a person because I was treated less than
an animal.

Speaker 6 (03:15):
Franciscan says they're investigating what happened now. The Wells family
has hired an attorney, but they say this isn't about
a payout. They want accountability and better policies so future
moms are not put in the same situation. Lastly, it
turns out even just a couple of cigarettes a day
can pack a serious punch. New research suggests that two

(03:35):
cigarettes daily can raise your risk of heart disease by
fifty percent and boost your risk of dying from any
cause by about sixty percent compared to people who never smoke.
The study says cutting back isn't enough to undo the damage.
Researchers say people should quit entirely, not simply smoke. Less

Well, the word is that a Super Bowl champion Philadelphia
Eagles are frustrated with their quarterback Jayden Hurts the way
he's been playing and performing up throughout the year.

Speaker 1 (04:13):
Whatever.

Speaker 11 (04:14):
It ain't been his best, but you know they still
eight and two at the end of the day. But
cool and calm Jalen Hurts is always. Here's how he
feels about that.

Speaker 12 (04:22):
I take a lot of the responsibility when things are
going I guess I get a lot of attention when
things are going well and when things are not going
so well, And so I never run away from holding
myself accountable. And I think I take great pride and
what we do on offense. I take great pride and
how we go out there and play as a team
and what our flow is. And so we obviously got

(04:44):
work to do, and I think that starts at obviously
starts with.

Speaker 11 (04:47):
Me, absolutely, man, And I'll take those eight and two
problems all day long.

When your quarterback ain't playing his best and you're still
eating too, don't know. I'm good with that. Shoot it

breathe on his own.

Martha Stewart is back joining forces with Snoop Dogg and
Doctor Dre because she is now the newest brand part
for their still Gin Spirited beverage. Yes, indeed, she's been
enlisted not to only promote the brand, but also share

(06:07):
her own recipes using the signature gin. Her signature cocktail
is called Watermelly, which includes watermelon, lime juice, cucumber biders,
cane syrup, and steal gin. It's built as an elevated
take on gin and juice. The partnership isn't as surprising
as it might initially seem because Martha stew and the
Snoop have maintained what she describes an unbreakable friendship as

(06:31):
they collaborated on various projects over the years. They've also
partnered on products like wine, big lighters and smoking accessories,
CBD products, TV shows, sketchers, and cookbooks. So I continue
that to be a long lasting relationship and I'm happy
that Martha.

asked to join forces with Kendrick Lamar for the Super
Bowl halftime showing February in New Orleans. And while Jackson
