| 13-year-old Christian girl fights in court to escape custody of Muslim abductor: 'Serious injustice' A 13-year-old Pakistani Christian girl is fighting in court to reunite with her family after a judge returned her to the custody of the 30-year-old Muslim man who abducted her last year. Maria Shahbaz was kidnapped from her Christian home in July 2025 by Shehryar Ahmad, who married her against her will and forced her to convert to Islam. Shahbaz has since been "exposed to grave abuse and exploitation," according to a press release from Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), a nonprofit legal advocacy group. An earlier investigation found that she was a minor and that her marriage documents were forged. Even so, Pakistan's Federal Constitutional Court reportedly did not confirm her age before ruling in February that she should remain in Ahmad's custody. The ruling contradicts Pakistani law, which does not...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| Lindsey Graham’s sister, Darline Graham Nordone, chosen to serve out Senate term Graham, 71, died suddenly due to a tear in his aorta that was related to the hardening of his arteries. The health emergency occurred after traveling back to the U.S. from Ukraine. South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster announced Monday afternoon that he was selecting Nordone, Graham’s younger sister, to serve out the late senator's term. At the press conference announcing the selection, Nordone thanked the many people who gave their condolences to her and her family over the past couple of days, saying that “Lindsey was loved and respected by many.” Nordone said that the “shared experiences” of those giving remembrances of her brother as well as “our faith have gotten us through these two very difficult days.” “Lindsey has always been there for me and now I will...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| Lindsey Graham’s pastor remembers him as patriot who ‘loved America’ Tate, who also called Graham a friend, told WYFF4 that Graham was baptized at the church and “professed Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior.” When they got news of the senator’s death, Tate said it was a “shock.” “It was just a shock,” the pastor said. “So, he was fine. And then he just felt bad. And then things began to progress from not feeling well to — to this.” Graham’s office announced early Sunday morning that he died on Saturday evening at the age of 71, from “a brief and sudden illness” at his home in Washington, D.C. The late senator’s office further told the Washington Post that preliminary findings from the D.C. medical examiner’s office show that he suffered from an aortic dissection, in which a tear occurs in the inner layer of the...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| Jamal Bryant prays for family of Nolan Wells as death investigation continues Pastor Jamal Bryant of New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in Stonecrest, Georgia, led his congregation in prayer for the family of Nolan Wells on Sunday as authorities continue to investigate the death of the 18-year-old whose body was found near Horn Island off the Mississippi Gulf Coast a week ago. Bryant asked his congregation to pray for Wells’ family after their attorney, Ben Crump, provided an update on their efforts to ensure transparency in the investigation, which has sparked ongoing speculation online. “We have to keep that fire intense until we can get to the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth on why Nolan Wells, this 18-year-old college football student-athlete, is dead,” Crump told the congregation.

The order, handed down last Friday, according to The Advocate, bars Spell from contacting the man or his family electronically or directly. Caught On Camera: When Wildlife Gets A Little Too Close "Mr. Spell may walk over and check his mailbox; other than checking his mailbox, he is to be 50 yards away from the protected person's property," the order states.

| Pastor Greg Locke says 'we have nothing to hide' after feds raid home Controversial Tennessee Pastor Greg Locke says he and his family "have nothing to hide" after some 60 federal agents ransacked their home in a pre-dawn raid in an investigation alleging he misappropriated church funds and other crimes. Locke, the lead pastor of Global Vision Bible Church in Lebanon, told his congregation Sunday that the raid happened just three weeks into a six-week sabbatical he had taken to mourn his 20-year-old son Evan, who died from a drug overdose in May. “The thing that angered me was not that it happened, but that the enemy kicked us while we were down. And it took away the opportunity for me to continue to grieve Evan. And so we've been the last few weeks just in this tailspin,” Locke said. “We were in bed at home, and at 6 in the morning, 60 federal agents...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Last week, Joe Sandri, a former telecom executive and attorney who serves as president and general counsel for Environmental Health Trust (EHT), shared images with The Christian Post of St. Luke Lutheran Church in Silver Spring, Maryland, that appear to show a cell phone tower behind what looks to be a chimney-like structure on its roof. Sandri says EHT team members first identified the antenna after they “recognized unusual activity” at the church. Images provided by Sandri’s team showed utility crews using a harness to work on what appears to be a cell phone tower antenna encased in “faux...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| When 'God' becomes the abuser: How Church wounds fuel Christianity's exodus Several years ago, someone I'd gotten to know at a church I briefly attended in the mid-2000s commented on a social media post in which I'd voiced my opinion in salty fashion. If I recall correctly, it was about a touchy bioethics issue. She didn't hold back her disgust, telling me in no uncertain terms what a repulsive barnacle she thought I was. Zestradar Met Gala Looks So Strange Fans Still Talk About Them I didn't take offense, but I was a little surprised. I'd gotten the vibe over the years that her views had shifted since I'd known her, but I'd never had a single unpleasant personal interaction with her. Most people don't let their claws out with me like that — she did. As I'd later find out, she and many of the young people and families in that church had been horribly...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| Why doesn’t God answer all of our prayers? Christians are always encouraged to pray about it. The hope is that God will intervene favorably. We all know, however, that God doesn’t answer all of our prayers. Is it because He doesn’t care? Definitely not so. The Psalmist said confidently, “Evening and morning and at noon I utter my complaint and ... he hears my voice” (Ps. 55:17). God is always there for us, and the traditional understanding of prayer requires a refreshing reminder. Indeed, prayer is an important part of a believer’s relationship with God, but I believe it shouldn’t be approached solely as a spiritual exercise for obtaining material benefits. Prayer is also indispensable to commune with God “for obtaining mercy and finding grace to help in time of need” (Heb. 4:16). In prayer, Christians should realize...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Sarah Huckabee Sanders, whose state was ranked first in the nation for religious freedom this year, said that increasing alienation and loss of community among Americans pose grave threats to religious liberty in the United States. Sanders’ office announced Tuesday that Arkansas scored this year’s top spot for religious liberty in the First Liberty Institute’s Center for Religion, Culture & Democracy’s Religious Liberty in the States index, which evaluated 50 legal protections across 20 safeguards states can adopt to uphold religious freedom. Earning a score of 89.2%, Arkansas joined Tennessee this year as the only two states to receive the index’s first-ever “excellent” rating.

The moderator has long since lost control. Voices rise. Fingers jab across the desk. The audience applauds whenever someone lands a verbal punch. Before the hour is over, clips of the exchange are racing across social media under headlines celebrating who "destroyed" whom. A few minutes later, another podcast begins. Another YouTube debate. Another Facebook argument. Another Christian politician blasting an opponent. Another opportunity to cheer our side and despise the other.

Peternel's restoration began just over a week after his 24-year-old son, Jonathan Peternel, was sentenced to four years in prison and another two years of probation in February. Jonathan Peternel’s sentence came after he pleaded guilty to charges of child exploitation and possession of child sex abuse material. “It is a joy to be with you this morning.

| Christians in Indian state face mob attacks after BJP win: reports Christians in the eastern Indian state of West Bengal have reportedly faced mob attacks on churches, prayer meetings and homes since the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won state elections in May, and a new campaign is underway to combat fabricated claims of mass conversion. The BJP’s win in West Bengal, with results declared on May 4, gave the party control of the state for the first time and ended 15 years of Trinamool Congress party rule. Critics linked the result to a revision of the electoral rolls that struck more than 9 million voters before the poll, raising questions about the integrity of the vote. The worst day was last Sunday, with at least four separate attacks, Matters India reports. A mob in Murshidabad district raided a Christian widow’s house and...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Christian attorney Basharat Masih, who attended the hearing at the Supreme Court’s principal seat in Islamabad on July 9, said a three-member bench headed by Justice Malik Shahzad Ahmad Khan acquitted the three men after concluding that the prosecution had failed to prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt due to inconsistencies in witness testimony and weaknesses in the evidence. Also on the bench were Justice Jamal Khan Mandokhail and Justice Aqeel Ahmed Abbasi.

"Homeschoolers, like the winner of the Presidential 1776 Award, have demonstrated their ability to succeed at the highest level time and time again. The proven value of homeschooling should never be dismissed as 'trickle-down stupidity.' The only thing that is stupid is your ignorance," the DOE said in an X post in response to a story about "I've Had It" co-hosts Jennifer Welch and Angie Sullivan demeaning homeschoolers.

Judge Grant Dorfman issued a ruling dismissing nearly every claim made against Second Baptist Church of Houston regarding a 2023 decision some members believe violated their voting rights. Dorfman concluded that the megachurch leadership was protected by religious liberty provisions that prevented secular courts from dictating church policies, reported The Houston Chronicle on Thursday. Additionally, the court refused to vacate the appointment of Ben Young, the son of retired Senior Pastor Ed Young Sr., to succeed his father, even though there was no congregational vote.

| Is reclaiming America's Mainline churches a lost cause? In 1960, approximately 45% of all Americans were members of the Mainline Protestant denominations (Episcopal, Methodist, Northern Baptist, United Church of Christ, Congregational Presbyterian, and non-Missouri Synod Lutheran). The collective membership of these denominations made up the Protestant “establishment,” and their membership dwarfed the Evangelicals (Southern Baptist, Independent Baptist, and those who left the Mainline denominations during the fundamentalist-modernist controversy in the 1920s and 1930s). For example, both the General Association of Regular Baptists (GARB) and the Conservative Baptists broke off from the Northern Baptist Convention in 1932 and 1944, respectively. The Mainline denominations held tremendous sway in American culture, as the Evangelicals had lost influence in their...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Theologians have debated for many years whether porn use within marriage is grounds for divorce, but very rarely are the questions behind that question ever addressed. From my experience, unless you're at the Master's Conference or the Southern Baptist Convention, if someone's asking this question, it's probably not because they're looking for a theological, intellectual answer. It's likely deeply emotionally loaded. Prince William Wants His Mistress To Be Accepted By Royal Family If, for example, a betrayed spouse asks this question, she may be feeling a sense of, “Am I forever going to be married to a man that's not who I thought I married and is breaking my heart every single day?” She may be wondering, “Is God okay with my husband breaking my heart and breaking me?” She may be wrestling with...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| Your church is unhealthy for one simple reason Every church wants to be healthy. Pastors and congregants want better discipleship, stronger leadership pipelines, healthier finances, more volunteers, and greater unity. Those are all worthwhile goals, but none of them sit at the source. They are downstream realities. If people are not coming to Christ, then every other measure of health will eventually weaken. You cannot disciple the lost into maturity. You cannot assimilate people who never arrive. You cannot build a leadership pipeline if no new believers are entering the life of the church. Evangelism is not one ministry among many. Evangelism is the headwaters of all church health. Paul makes this logic unmistakable in Romans 10:14–15. How will people call on Christ unless they believe? How will they believe unless they hear? How will...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

The scene stood in sharp contrast to the scuffle that marred the end of Sunday’s championship game, but it also stood out for its remarkable display of unity.

Evangelicals’ views of Israel have become less favorable in recent years, although they remain far more positive than those of most, if not all, other major religious groups, according to a new Pew Research Center survey. The survey also found that Americans as a whole have become less positive toward Israel, with favorable views of the Israeli people falling from 67 percent in 2022 to 52 percent today – a sharp decline that has almost certainly been influenced by the war in Gaza.

Florida evangelist Tommie Zito plans to turn a $200 million Vermont campus into a “Christ-centered university.” According to Faithwire, Zito made a deal with whiskey maven Raj Bhakta, the founder of WhistlePig Whiskey, who plans to give away a $200 million college campus in Poultney, Vermont, formerly known as the Methodist-affiliated Green Mountain College. “When we forget that there is a God above us who gives us the rules, we don’t make them — forgetting that is what has caused this crazy culture to emerge of hopelessness, and selfishness, and crazy ideas,” Bhakta previously told CBN News back in...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| Skillet's John Cooper Urges Christians to Display Grace in Age of Outrage on Social Media Skillet frontman John Cooper fearlessly confronts society's "brokenness" and the "cesspool" of social media, revealing how these themes inspired their hit new single and his unique advice for Christians online.  The frontman for the band Skillet isn't afraid to tackle topics that can spark debate, whether he's talking about his Christian faith, the state of society or life in general. But once he’s shared his thoughts, he rarely sticks around to read the responses. As far as he's concerned, there's little value in it. “There's no reason to, because people find a sick sort of satisfaction in being as rude as they can,” John Cooper told Crosswalk Headlines. Cooper’s critique of social media is partially the inspiration behind the band’s new hit single "Scream," which is a commentary...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Charles “Chuck” Swindoll has delivered thousands of sermons and written dozens of books, but if he had only one final message to preach, he says, it would be about God's grace.

No, Islam is Not Kind to Christians Recently, a handful of popular podcasters have claimed that Islamic regimes are historically “very kind” toward Christians. Those who make this claim are either willfully ignorant or are advancing an agenda. The historical record is not ambiguous. For example, the claims that relations between Islam and the Christian world were peaceful for 500 years until the First Crusade are false. Mohammad died in 632. By 732, Islam had taken the Holy Land and North Africa from the Christian Byzantine Empire. It had also conquered Spain and advanced into France, a few hundred miles from Paris. After taking additional land in southern France and establishing bases in the Alps, Muslims launched raids into Germany. They also sacked the outskirts of Rome and took control of Sicily. In 1071, they defeated the Byzantines...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| How to Worship Jesus revolutionized our understanding of worship, revealing that it transcends mere attendance and song, demanding both intellectual understanding and heartfelt authenticity.  How do you worship? Is worship simply attending a service and singing a song? Not according to Jesus. Here’s what he had to say: “True worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. The Father is looking for those who will worship him that way. For God is Spirit, so those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth.” (John 4:23–24 NLT) When it comes to worship, Jesus taught two things: that we should worship God in spirit and in truth. Let’s start off with the truth. To worship in truth means that when we worship God, we worship God as He really is, not some false idea of God or some...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

The season of Dire Straits comes around every year in the Jewish calendar, but this time we have a perfect illustration of the concept with the now familiar image of the Strait of Hormuz. Forced to make their way through perilous, narrow waters, the global shipping industry has had to navigate through the mine-ridden Hormuz Strait controlled by Iran, not knowing if their vessels and crews would make it.

If God is our Father, Jerusalem is like a mother because it was from Zion that we were redeemed and given new life. It is through what the Messiah accomplished in Zion that we can be born again: through His death and resurrection in Jerusalem that our new life begins. Yeshua talked about the importance of being “born again” to Nicodemus, a respected Pharisee who sat on the Sanhedrin.

Israeli archaeologists recently came across what is believed to be a rare 2,500-year-old coin, found on a beach in Ashdod, Israel, that originated in Cyprus. Per CBN News, the coin, which comes in at close to 11 grams, is known as a “siglos”, a standard coin in Cyprus. “At first glance, it appeared to be made of silver, but closer examination showed that it was actually made of a metal that was only plated with silver.

Sports Gambling is Still a Bad Bet A recently released report shows a clear correlation between legalized gambling and gambling addiction. While this should surprise absolutely no one, there is further evidence that the explosion of legalized sports gambling was a bad idea. In 2018, a Supreme Court decision cleared the way for states to legalize sports betting. Since then, according to the study shared by Epic Research, gambling disorders have risen by 61% in states that allow it but is down 29% in states that have not. That’s a big spread, pun intended. The time frame is also significant. Only Nevada allowed sports gambling prior to 2018. Today, it is legal in 39 states and DC, though app-based gambling has made it ubiquitous.
