Doubletake: Fighting for Sabbath rest

2/8/2025
When Gerald Groff took his job at the Post Office in 2012, taking Sundays off wasn’t an issue. USPS didn’t deliver on Sundays. Then about a decade ago Amazon decided people simply had to have their gadgets and groceries delivered on Sundays and hired USPS to help. Suddenly Groff had a choice: keep his job or his convictions. He decided to try for both–and the case is still not settled, exactly. Today on Doubletake, a special legal episode about a mailman, his faith, and the byzantine legal rules that define religious liberty in this country. Support WORLD News Group at wng.org/donate

Doubletake: Intended for Evil, The Plan

2/1/2025
Hearing that his father was dead was very nearly the last straw for Radha Manickam. In two years he’d lost almost his entire family under the brutal regime of Cambodia’s Khmer Rouge. It seemed that God had abandoned him, and one night while lying on an anthill in the middle of a rice paddy, he decided to end it all. But then hope arrived–in a most unlikely place, and a most unexpected way. This series is based on my recent interviews with Radha, along with my 2016 book about his experiences. The book, audiobook, and this series are titled Intended for Evil by Les Sillars.  Support WORLD News Group at wng.org/donate Intended for Evil available as a paperback and audio book at Amazon.com

Doubletake: Intended for Evil, The Realm of the Dead

1/25/2025
After the communist Khmer Rouge took over Cambodia on April 17, 1975, they herded everybody out of the cities and into socialist “cooperatives.” Radha Manickam and family were sent to the country’s northwest, where they and 1.8 million others were dumped out of trains and told to start building villages. It was Year Zero, supposedly the start of the agrarian utopia promised by their Marxist masters. Instead, Radha watched the Khmer Rouge turn Cambodia into the realm of the dead. This series tells a hard and brutal story, but it’s also a story of hope and, ultimately, redemption. It’s based on my recent interviews with Radha, along with my 2016 book about his experiences.
