we have one hope of salvation -- the blood of jesus christ and his resurrection.nd that's a greater unity than anything that divides us. >> there are many who hope that you'll bring a new tone and tenor and really attitude to the treatment of women amongst evangelicals. >> so, well, let's just talk about the elephant in the room. one of the things that evangelicals believe is that god has created men and women equally but differently. they are given different roles in various spheres. you know, specifically, in the church and in the home, you know, god gave men to be the husbands and the fathers and, you know, ephesians 5, the spiritual head of the home. he gave women a different role in those things. but what happened is, those things went beyond their borders to where it then kind of created more of a patriarchal system in society, where, you know, that kind of idea that men and women are different led to inequality. one of the things that i hope to do is say, "yes, i want to be faithful to what the bible teaches about the distinctions between men and women." i

how does the salvation army come into play on this? >> if you were in a mandatory evacuation zone we encourage you to evacuate. i was there during hurricane katrina and saw what a major hurricane can do. i saw homes smashed to splinters. it is just not safe to stay. even we have salvation army units on the coast if we're told to evacuate, we're also getting out, go to a safe place, stage, come back in once the disaster is passed. neil: i was reading or at least the caroline area this could be the worst storm to hit in better than five decades. a lot of people are saying this could be another hazel which was a humdinger of the storm back in the 1950s, 1954. could eclipse that of hugo in 1989. what does the salvation army do knowing numbers like that, fears of catastrophic damage? some have begged at minimum of $20 billion? how do you get ready for something like that? >> well, you preposition your resources. we have trained disaster teams. you really do get ready but we do count on public support at this point in time. the best way to h

the ira can go in just salvation he had attacked. the police post and government offices simul pena sleep the young mommy was also already in place and rakhine state they had already brought in reinforcements to be able to deal with that so the question is how did they know to me a lot of these reports on not credible this was a good time to. try to move. out of nemani. this point of the media tour around my and the border between the country and bangladesh for not acting there again why it generated the whole people. said ben is seven hundred thousand people. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the lawn. they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president or injury. or somehow want to be rescued . it's a right to be for us this is what the forecast the three in the morning can't be good that i'm interested always in the waters of my. question. because you know provision i might want to know what it is on those that i like. oh. you're so you know i lost his boss because i just got the. resources you know j

allow them to impart divine grace and offer a path to salvation do you see any merit to that argument that people indeed should be at the center of all of this the way you presented it is a little bit simplified and they're sitting there argument the matter is somewhat more complicated. very often when people hear these disputes they only hear the words territory as if we dispute about particular theory sorry but it is not the territory which matters but the people and. the pastoral care is what the church is about and what the church is for. but it's a problem with. the schism is in the church terms is something which is invalid for the pastoral for example the sacraments which are administered by the schismatics they are not valid because they are void of the divide of the divine grace and this is why we are equally concerned about the fate of those who belong to the schismatic groups and we made many attempts to heal this wound but the problem with the political try to merge the purely ecclesiastical issue with their political interests and they intervene into internal life of the

italy's populist government has been in power for nearly a hundred days interior minister of salvation it leaves the country's far right league party is behind the new policy of banning migrant rescue ships from italian ports certainly pleased his supporters polls indicate the league supporters doubled since the election in march skeptics however say the root of the country's problems is not migration and they fear the populace ill equipped to navigate italy's troubled economic waters w correspondent max hoffman reports from the northern italian city of goma. the site of the show is about to start after hours of waiting such enthusiasm begs the question is this really the interior minister of italy or a pop star. lego was founded close to where we are right now and it's been hosting this festival many years now so this is classic for my to the me and you can tell people here absolutely adore him. and his fans appear satisfied with what he's done in the first one hundred days in office especially on migration why why i should be disappointed if he's trying to protect italy's try to give

soldiers were passing on everywhere without the assurance of salvation. a secretary of the commissions maryland branch explained the purposes of the organization's hospital work in a january 1864 letter to commission chairman stewart. in the hospitals near the battlefield, the delegates of the commission engaged in their work. while employed on the relief of the physical suffering of their charge, it was fully mindful. they read the scriptures of religious books and men, and prayed with them, encouraging them in every possible way to consider their safety. not only as regard of the comforts of the presence, but the realities of the future of the world. the delegates often coordinated the ministries of the organizations. in december of 1862, a core of commission delegates was sent on the authority of the surgeon general and south to the general house point of point lookout maryland. the head of the delegation reported back that the hospital contained 2000 patients. 1100 arrived by that point as a result of the battle at harrisburg. the surgeon in charge re

and so we reached out to sales force, red cross, salvation army, inter-faith council as well as the access community and next door, which is where we got a lot of volunteers from. we had over 80 people come out and act as survivor-actors. we provided some education around what disaster response and sheltering looks like. and that was a valuable piece of the exercise in providing that education and awareness to our city residents. the last piece is that we were able to train our h.s.a. and d.p.h. shelter staff on site. it was a just-in-time training. we focused on, how do we train our staff in the time of an event to be able to provide the services to run the shelter. and that was a really, really great outcome. next year, yellow command will focus on transportation. and so i'm really looking forward to moving to the transportation and working with many of you on that project as well. thanks. >> thank you, guys. thanks so much. and just to highlight, this is really meant to test our ability and our capability in the first days after an emergency assuming that we get no outside help. just to
