One of the best friends this blog has is Kristen Laprise, and she recently got me listening to the BBC Documentary Archive.  I actually listened to 7 or 8 episodes today on my drive up to Ohio.  I highly recommend it as a way to broaden your worldview on a wide variety of topics.

Today I listened to a three-part series called Feeding the World which I’d describe as a scientifiic and economic study of issues of hunger and food production.  Interesting, and a little scary.  I also heard a feature on the charismatic churches in Ghana, Africa, and the surprising place of the health-and-wealth gospel there.

Kristen has helped open my eyes to the needs of the world.  Until she get her own blog (perhaps a nice photo blog), the Doc. Archive will be my best source of information about world issues.
