Two-Thirds of Americans Believe in the Bodily Resurrection of Christ, Study Finds A new survey shows many Americans affirm the resurrection and the Trinity, yet just as many hold views that drift far from Scripture. What does this reveal about faith in our nation today? ![]() Two-thirds of Americans say they believe the bodily resurrection of Christ as described in the Bible is literally true, according to a new survey that found the nation's views of Christianity sometimes align with Scripture—and sometimes sharply diverge. The State of Theology study from Lifeway Research and Ligonier Ministries found that 65 percent of U.S. adults say they agree that the "biblical accounts of the physical (bodily) resurrection of Jesus are completely accurate" and "actually occurred," according to the survey's wording.

The American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), a conservative, Christian-based legal organization based in Washington D.C., filed a federal civil rights lawsuit earlier this year against the city of Chicago after preachers Brett Raio, Reetik Dhamala, and Perez Ndi were arrested for sharing the gospel at Millennium Park last December.

Jimmy Kimmel Commends Jesus’ Words While Praising Erika Kirk’s Forgiveness in Return![]() After his suspension, Jimmy Kimmel returned to the air with unexpected words: not just about politics and free speech, but about Jesus, grace, and a widow’s bold example of forgiveness. Comedian Jimmy Kimmel referenced the teachings of Jesus as he applauded Erika Kirk's remarks during his return to late-night comedy Tuesday, six days after ABC and owner Disney announced his indefinite suspension due to a controversial joke about Trump supporters in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination.

Rowling offered a candid reflection on her faith in a recent social media post, acknowledging she senses a “God-shaped vacuum” within her yet remains uncertain what to do about it. The Harry Potter author made the remarks while reflecting on the beliefs she has revised since her early 20s—and those she has not. For example, Rowling said that in her early 20s, she supported unilateral nuclear disarmament, considered cannabis harmless, and backed assisted dying.

What Did Charlie Kirk Really Say?![]() On Friday, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was among a number of Democratic lawmakers to vote against a resolution to honor the late Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated on September 10. After condemning his murder as “a horrific and vile attack,” the Congresswoman associated his work with America’s long “legacy of bigotry.” Likewise, Representative Bennie Thompson said that Kirk’s “rhetoric was divisive, disparaging, and rooted in grievance.” Their statements mirror a claim that now fills many newsfeeds and talk shows. While qualifying his murder as detestable, many accuse Charlie Kirk of being an outspoken proponent of hate, violence, white supremacy, and other dangerous phobias. Many people believe this accusation. Many others, in the wake of Kirk’s assassination, have spent hours looking...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Lewis and Baxter show us a better way, one rooted in Christ alone. ![]() In his preface to his classic work, Mere Christianity, C.S. Lewis explained the title of his book: Ever since I became a Christian I have thought that the best, perhaps the only, service I could do for my unbelieving neighbours was to explain and defend the belief that has been common to nearly all Christians at all times… to expound “mere” Christianity, which is what it is and was what it was long before I was born and whether I like it or not….

Are We Getting the End Times Wrong?![]() Well, the world did not end this week as a South African pastor predicted. Joshua Mhlakela said that the Rapture would occur on September 23. To prepare, some people sold their homes and quit their jobs. This is not the first end times prediction that failed to materialize. In 2011, a radio preacher named Harold Camping identified May 21 of that year as when the Rapture would occur. More famous was the 88 Reasons the Rapture Will Be in 1988 book. There was also a Rapture panic surrounding Y2K, and in 1844, a Baptist preacher named William Miller misled so many people, the event became known as “The Great Disappointment.” American protestants have been particularly interested in end times prophecies. The Left Behind book series from the 1990s and early 2000s sold millions. Though its...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

What Does Forgiveness Look Like for Christians Who Repent of Heretical Views?![]() It’s not often that a prominent figure admits he was wrong about a hot button cultural issue, but that’s exactly what author and podcaster Malcolm Gladwell did recently. On “The Real Science of Sport Podcast,” Gladwell confessed that, when moderating a panel back in 2022, he’d been “cowed” into agreeing that men should be allowed to compete in women’s sports. Though he knew at the time that it made no sense to claim men have no advantage over women in sports, Gladwell remained silent. He now thinks that 90% of the audience then knew this truth, but only 5% were brave enough to say so. Today, he said he thinks the social pressure has changed: If we did a replay of that exact panel, … it runs in exactly the opposite...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

The false prophecy originated with South African pastor Joshua Mhlakela, who claimed Jesus appeared to him and revealed the rapture would occur during the Jewish Feast of Trumpets on Sept. 23-24.

Gen Z and the Future of Church Attendance: What the Numbers Really Show Reports suggest Gen Z now attends church more often than any other generation.

Across the denominational board, churches declined in attendance and, once restrictions were lifted, many have yet to recover. Many more shuttered their doors for good. Those that went hybrid – meaning offering a robust menu of services both in person and online – did the best.

FDA Approval of Generic Abortion Pill Sparks Fierce Pushback from Pro-Life Leaders![]() The FDA’s approval of another generic abortion pill has ignited pushback from social conservatives, who say it represents a betrayal by an administration they consider pro-life allies. The FDA’s approval of another generic abortion pill has ignited pushback from social conservatives, who say it represents a betrayal by an administration they consider pro-life allies. Drug company Evita Solutions announced on its website last week that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had approved a generic version of mifepristone, which Evita said can be used up to 70 days from the first day of a woman’s last menstrual cycle. Mifepristone is the first drug in the two-step abortion pill regimen, blocking the hormone progesterone and causing the uterine lining...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Public Views Split on Teaching Religion in U.S. Schools, Survey Finds New data reveals a stark division among U.S. adults regarding religion's place in public schools, with nearly equal opinions on whether its role is too little, too much, or just right. Explore the nuanced perspectives on teaching... ![]() A recent YouGov poll shows that U.S. adults are nearly equally divided on the role of religion in public schools. The survey, conducted August 11-13 among 1,163 American adults, found that 34% say religion doesn’t play enough of a role in public education, 26% say it’s about right, and another 26% say religion plays too much of a role, Baptist Press reported. Responses also differed by demographic, including 45% of Christians who said religion is more needed in public schools, 56% of...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Dr. Tony Evans Returns to Ministry without Leadership Role after Committing Undisclosed Sin He helped build the church’s restoration policy—then had to walk through it himself. Tony Evans opens up about grace and God’s healing work. ![]() After over a year of stepping down from ministry due to undisclosed sin, Dr. Tony Evans has been restored to ministry by the elders of the 11,000-member Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship Church in Dallas, Texas. "Dr. Evans acknowledged in a public statement falling short of God's standard and a need to submit to the church's discipline and restoration process. We are pleased to report that Dr. Evans has fully submitted to the church's discipline and restoration process," Chris Wheel, Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship's associate pastor of outreach, told the congregation on Sunday. Despite the restoration, Wheel clarified that it...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

How to Know God Personally by Moving from Religion to Relationship A personal faith in Christ goes deeper than habits and church attendance. ![]() You alone will answer God’s call in Heaven at the end of your life. Romans 14:12 says, “So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God.” No one else can do that job for you. I think it’s essential that we let that truth sink in because it’s easy to appear to know and love God but have a heart far from him. The unavoidable truth is that simply going through the motions of our religion is not enough to save our souls. It’s also not the same as having a personal relationship with Jesus. The good news is that having a relationship with Jesus is often much easier than jumping through all the hoops of religion. All it requires is a simple prayer of faith...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Most of us have whispered it at one point or another: If I ever win the lottery, here’s what I’d do… We dream of vacations, buying our dream homes, early retirements, or that one splurge we’ve always wanted. But very few of us would do what Carrie Edwards of Chesterfield, Virginia, actually did when the impossible dream became her reality. Carrie held a $150,000 winning ticket in her hands.

Discover why seeking Him first isn’t just biblical, but also life-giving. ![]() Pfizer recently announced it will cut U.S. drug prices by an average of 50% through a new federal website, TrumpRX, while investing $70 billion in domestic manufacturing. The move follows a White House mandate to tie U.S. drug costs to the lowest prices in developed nations. Americans currently pay nearly three times more for prescriptions than patients in peer countries. The agreement exempts Pfizer from steep new tariffs, placing pressure on other pharmaceutical companies to follow suit. Critics warn such policies could slow global innovation, while supporters see it as a long-overdue correction to skyrocketing healthcare costs. Nearly...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

SCOTUS Decides Whether Christian Counselors Will Be Able to Help Children![]() Yesterday, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Chiles v. Salazar, a case with profound implications for free speech rights, as well as for those with gender dysphoria. Kaley Chiles is a licensed counselor in Colorado. Represented by the Alliance Defending Freedom, she sued the state of Colorado over its counseling censorship law, which prohibits counselors from helping clients, specifically children, reconcile their identity with their sex through talk therapy. As the law stands, counselors like Chiles face fines up to $5,000 for each violation. Chiles claims that she has patients who want to discuss issues that “implicate Christian values about human sexuality and the treatment of their own body” while avoiding harmful drugs and questionable medical procedures. Though Chiles...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

The Faithfulness of Nigerian Christians amid Persecution![]() There may be no better example of Christian faithfulness and courage right now than in Nigeria. Earlier this week, in response to the appointment of a progressive, pro-abortion Archbishop of Canterbury, the Nigerian Anglican Church broke all ties with the Church of England. Their actions were swift, despite the extensive persecution of Christians in that country. For the last decade or more, almost like clockwork, Muslim extremists in Nigeria have attacked Christians in church each Christmas and Easter. In recent years, these attacks have happened more and more frequently. This year, the slaughter of Nigerian Christians has hit an unprecedented level. On June 13, at least 200 Christians were killed in a single day in the village of Yelwata before their homes were burned. According to a...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

The survey, which utilized 25 years of survey data from online and telephone interviews with 132,020 adults, found that 43% of men and 36% of women reported attending church regularly (weekly) in their most recent survey wave, according to Church Leaders. “In five of the last six years, men have outpaced women in this key measure of religious engagement, and the 2025 gap is the largest measured,” the Barna stated.

Church is boring for most because the power of God has vanished from many congregations ... there is a lack of desire to pursue Him in the pulpit as well as in the pew.

The hostility we see is not mere disagreement; it is the reflex of one group rejoicing at the silencing of another. I recognize this spirit. I grew up in the middle of Kampala, the capital of Uganda—a city where all 52 tribes of our nation converged. We were Baganda, and we were told we did not get along with the Acholi.

Only that when they engage in prayer, it can feel like they are wasting precious time that could be spent on more… well… activist-oriented activities. So why did Jesus “waste” so much time in prayer? And pray He did. So much so that Luke commented that He “often” withdrew to lonely, out-of-the-way, deserted places specifically for prayer (Luke 5:16).

San Antonio Churches Vandalized in 'No Kings' Protests Two churches in San Antonio were vandalized with anti-Trump and religious graffiti during weekend protests. Pastors at both locations have responded publicly, emphasizing biblical authority and the need for respectful dialogue. ![]() At least two churches in San Antonio, Texas, were vandalized with graffiti messages during the ‘No Kings’ protests against President Donald Trump last weekend. The pastors of Community Bible Church and Church Unlimited Stone Oak have responded to the matter on social media, expressing disappointment that their churches were vandalized, according to CBN News. “To spew evil, spray paint this on our church, in a form of hate, causes me to question the very belief system of [those] who participate, condone, and not condemn this kind...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Research Confirms That Israelis Have Been Turning to God in the War New research confirms a quiet spiritual awakening as many cry out to the Lord amid crisis. ![]() We have noticed a sharp uptick in interest on our Hebrew language channels and websites here at ONE FOR ISRAEL, but now an academic study has confirmed it: Israelis have been turning to God in significant numbers during this terrible war. New research from psychologists at Hebrew University has shown that half of those surveyed had changed their approach to spirituality since October 7, 2023. While some had turned away from God in grief and disillusionment, the vast majority reported an increase in interest and engagement with spiritual matters, turning to God to find meaning and comfort. Yaakov Greenwald, Prof. Mario Mikulincer, and...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Christian Leaders Call on Trump to Protect Nigerian Christians![]() Christians in Nigeria are paying for their faith like no one else in the world. Attacks from Muslim extremists were once mostly limited to sacred holidays of Easter and Christmas. Now, they are almost continuous. This year, the slaughter of Nigerian Christians has hit an unprecedented level. According to a Newsweek report, over 7,000 Christians have been killed in Nigeria during the first 220 days of 2025, an average of 35 killings a day. That’s why I joined 33 other leaders of Christian organizations this week in an appeal to President Donald Trump to declare Nigeria a “country of particular concern.” Last month, the U.S. Senate took up a bill to do the same, but just days later, Nigeria’s House of Representatives unanimously rejected the designation. The letter to the President made a very...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Is it OK for Christians to Be Involved in Sports Betting and Fantasy Football?![]() Anyone who knows me knows my year is measured in downs, not just days. From the first kickoff in September to the final whistle in February, football isn't just a sport; it's a season of life. On my very first date with my wife, I strategically chose a seat with a clear view of the Sunday afternoon game. This was a contingency plan, just in case the romance didn't pan out. Thankfully, it did, but my love for the game remains. In a society relentlessly bombarded by a 24-hour news cycle that can leave us feeling overwhelmed, divided, and emotionally spent, sports offer a much-needed sanctuary. They provide a common ground, a shared passion, and a beautiful escape. In America, football reigns supreme, having long since surpassed baseball as the...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Choosing Judas Explore the perplexing question of why Jesus chose Judas, knowing his eventual betrayal, and uncover the profound reasons behind this divine decision. ![]() I once did a message series titled “Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Jesus... but Were Afraid to Ask.” Leading up to the series, we asked people to submit their questions about Jesus, particularly the ones they weren’t quite sure were legal to verbalize. We ended up grouping them in three categories: questions about Jesus’ personal life, His actions, and salvation. So, what did people want to know? About His personal life, they were curious as to what He looked like, what His childhood was like, did He have any siblings, when did He know He was God, and if He was ever married. As for His actions, they wanted to know why He prayed to God if...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |
