Walking Forward dives into the stories and practices of Christians who are enduring on the margins of today’s societies. Sometimes we look back at historical Christians, sometimes we look around the world at contemporary Christians, and sometimes we look right in our own backyard. Regardless of where the stories hail from, Walking Forward focuses on ordinary folks captivated by a Gospel worth living and dying for. Kingdom Prayer, Discipleship, Wisdom, and Stealth-living connect Christians as “other-cultural”, “other political” communities empowered to finish the Christian race well - regardless of our cultural circumstances.

S1Ep5 On the Margins of Global Human Rights with Knox Thames
Global persecution against religious minorities is rising to ‘pandemic’ levels. How should we think about this global rise of hostility against biblical Christianity? Should American Christians count themselves among those numbers? K.A. Ellis sits down with field and policy expert Knox Thames to discuss religious freedom at home and abroad. Knox Thames is a visiting expert at the U.S. Institute of Peace with the Middle East and Religion and Inclusive Societies teams. Thames joined USIP after 20 years of government service, including at the State Department and two different U.S. government foreign policy commissions. Most recently, Thames served across two administrations as the special advisor for religious minorities in the Near East and South and Central Asia at the U.S. Department of State. The first to serve in this capacity, he received a civil service appointment in September 2015 to lead State Department efforts to address the situation of religious minorities in these regions. Thames previously served on the U.S. Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe—also known as the Helsinki Commission—as well as with the U.S. Commission for International Religious Freedom, AmeriCorps, and the U.S. Army War College as an adjunct research professor. In addition to USIP, he is currently a senior fellow with the Institute for Global Engagement, with both positions made possible thanks to the Templeton Religion Trust. Reflecting his expertise on religion and global affairs, Thames’ articles have appeared in the Yale Journal of International Affairs, the Small Wars Journal, and the Georgetown Journal for International Affairs. He was the initiator and lead author of “International Religious Freedom Advocacy: A Guide to Organizations, Law and NGOs” published by Baylor University Press. He has spoken before the U.S. Congress, the United Nations, the European Parliament, the OSCE, and the U.S. military war colleges.

Hardy shares about experiencing the New Testament reality in the American south, seeing revival through prayer, going deeper than temporal justice to fruitful discipleship, and the deep spiritual hunger he's found among young men and women in Birmingham/Fairfield, Alabama.
