Bassist and clean vocalist Ryan Neff was the first to announce his departure on October 19, 2024, citing personal and professional reasons after two years with the band. This was swiftly followed by the exit of tour manager Alex Kendrick on October 22. On October 24, guitarist Ken Susi and drummer Nick Pierce also revealed they were leaving the band, with both members expressing that their personal morals had been tested to a breaking point. Susi, formerly of Unearth, and Pierce emphasized their gratitude for the support they received but felt compelled to distance themselves from the band to maintain their personal health and integrity. These departures have led to the cancellation of As I Lay Dying's European tour, leaving only frontman Tim Lambesis and guitarist Phil Sgrosso remaining in the band as they prepare for the release of their new album, Through Storms Ahead, on November 15.” (Perplexity)Are As I Lay Dying Done? | The Podcast That Rocked

THE FORGE, the newest Christian movie from the Kendrick Brothers, is a powerful illustration and reminder that discipleship matters! Guest host Adam McManus interviews Alex Kendrick, the co-writer and director of the film, which has already made $27 million domestically since August 23rd. At its height, THE FORGE was shown in 1,900 theaters. Still in 700 theaters today, go to the website www.TheForgeMovie.com to find out where it is playing near you. In the film, Isaiah Wright, played by Aspen Kennedy, has some growing up to do. A year out of high school with no plans for his future, Isaiah is challenged by his single mom and a successful businessman to start charting a better course for his life. Through the Biblical discipleship from his new mentor, prayers of his mother and a prayer warrior named Miss Clara, Isaiah begins to discover God's purpose for his life.  Most Bible-believing Christians know the Great Commission by memory. It records the last words of Jesus during His earthly ministry found in Mathew 28:18-20. Jesus said, “All authority in Heaven and on Earth has been given to Me. Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Notice it doesn't say, “Go and make converts.”  While the movie inspires Christians to make disciples, their companion book, Devoted To Jesus, equips believers to disciple others by working through the 52 short chapters in 52 weeks with anyone who needs to grow in faith. Like the special ceremony for young men in THE FORGE, McManus shares the story of the special Manhood Celebration ceremony he organized for his son Honor's 13th birthday.  Much like the Jewish families launch their sons into adulthood through a bar mitzvah, McManus believes Evangelical parents should be more intentional. Rob Dempsey, Morning Show Host of His Radio, said, “THE FORGE masterfully weaves together themes of forgiveness, mentorship, and the hope of the Gospel, creating an entertaining and impactful film that leaves a lasting impression.” Watch the trailer of THE FORGE.

Vance beat Tim Walz in Vice Presidential debate, Iran launched missiles against Israel, Alex Kendrick chats with Adam McManus) 2. Generations with Kevin Swanson (guest-hosted by Adam McManus)

It's Wednesday, October 2nd, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark The more gov't corruption, the more persecution of Christians International Christian Concern released a report on the connection between government corruption and persecution. The report notes that countries with significant abuse of public power for private gain are also countries with high levels of persecution for Christians. Countries like Afghanistan, China, India, Iran, Nigeria, and North Korea. The report referenced multiple studies that “highlight how corruption within governmental, legal, and societal institutions can exacerbate religious persecution, leading to discrimination, violence, and marginalization of religious minorities.” Iran launched missiles against Israel Speaking of Iran, the country launched dozens of missiles into Israel on Tuesday. There were no immediate reports on any casualties or damage caused by the strike. The attack comes less than a week after Israeli airstrikes killed the leader of Hezbollah, an Iranian-backed terrorist group in Lebanon. Israel has also started ground operations against Hezbollah this week. The U.S. stood by Israel, promising severe consequences for Iranian missile attacks on Israel.  J.D. Vance beat Tim Walz in Vice Presidential debate Referring to last night's CBS Vice Presidential debate in New York City between the Republican VP nominee J.D. Vance, an Ohio Senator, and the Democratic VP nominee, Tim Walz, the Minnesota Governor, radio talk show host Erick Erickson sent an email with the subject line: “Even the Democrats Know Vance Won.” He wrote, “JD Vance just turned in the very best performance of a national candidate in decades on a debate stage. He handled himself extremely well.” Vance: Kamala ensured border crisis by dismantling Trump policy When asked about immigration, this was Vance's answer. VANCE: “We have a historic immigration crisis because Kamala Harris started and said that she wanted to undo all of Donald Trump's border policies, 94 executive orders, suspending deportations, decriminalizing illegal aliens, massively increasing the asylum fraud that exists in our system. That has opened the floodgates, and what it's meant is that a lot of fentanyl is coming into our country. “I had a mother who struggled with opioid addiction and has gotten clean. I don't want people who are struggling with addiction to be deprived of their second chance because Kamala Harris let in fentanyl into our communities at record levels. So, you've got to stop the bleeding. You've got to reimplement Donald Trump's border policies, build the wall, reimplement deportations.” Walz lied about being in Hong Kong during Tiananmen Square massacre Talk show host Erick Erickson said Governor Walz did not hold up and opened himself up to more attacks for lying about being in Hong Kong during the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre. Indeed, listen to his inability to answer a straight question from CBS News moderator Margaret Brennan, reports the National Review. BRENNAN: “Governor Walz, you said you were in Hong Kong during the deadly Tiananmen Square protests in the spring of 1989, but Minnesota Public Radio and other media outlets are reporting that you actually didn't travel to Asia until August of that year. Can you explain that discrepancy?” WALZ: “To the folks out there who didn't get at the top of this: Look, I grew up in small, rural Nebraska, town of 400, town that you rode your bike with your buddies till the street lights come on. And I'm proud of that service. I joined the National Guard at 17, worked on family farms, and then I used the GI Bill to become a teacher, passionate about it, a young teacher. My first year out, I got the opportunity in the summer of ‘89 to travel to China, 35 years ago be able to do that. “I came back home and then started a program to take young people there. We would take basketball teams. We would take baseball teams. We would take dancers, and we would go back and forth to China. The issue for that was, was to try and learn. Now, look, my community knows who I am. They saw where I was at. Look, I will be the first to tell you, I have poured my heart into my community. “I've tried to do the best I can, but I've not been perfect, and I'm a knucklehead at times, but it's always been about that. Those same people elected me to Congress for 12 years, and in Congress, I was one of the most bipartisan people. Many times, I will talk a lot. I will get caught up in the rhetoric, but being there, the impact. It made the difference. It made my life. I learned a lot about China. I hear the critiques of this.” BRENNAN: “Governor, just to follow up on that: The question was, ‘can you explain the discrepancy?'” WALZ: “All I said on this was as I got there that summer and misspoke on this. So, I will just, that's what I've said. So, I was in Hong Kong and China during the democracy protests went in, and from that, I learned a lot of what needed to be in governance.” All that to say, Walz was in the United States, not Hong Kong, during the Tiananmen Square massacre, reports Reuters. Hurricane Helene claims 140 lives; Nearly 2 million without power Rainstorms followed by Hurricane Helene dumped over 40 trillion gallons of water across the Southeast U.S. over the last week. The storm has caused at least 140 deaths across six states. Hundreds of people are still missing, and over 1.7 million homes and businesses are without power. North Carolina faced some of the worst flooding. Among the damage there was Ridgecrest Conference Center in Black Mountain, the host of many Christian retreats over the years. Christian groups like Samaritan's Purse have been providing supplies and aid in the region. On Monday, Former President Donald Trump visited hurricane-ravaged Georgia alongside Franklin Graham, the founder of Samaritan's Purse. Listen to Graham's comments. GRAHAM: “This building behind us represents hundreds of thousands of people that have lost homes, businesses, friends, loved ones. And it's going to take an army of volunteers and people to respond. And, of course, at Samaritan's Purse, we want to respond, always in Jesus' name.” In Mark 9:41, Jesus said, “For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in My name, because you belong to Christ, assuredly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.” Georgia's Heartbeat law declared unconstitutional In other Georgia news, a state judge ruled on Monday that Georgia's heartbeat law is unconstitutional. The ruling came despite the Georgia Supreme Court upholding the law last year. Georgia's 2019 Living Infants Fairness and Equality Act effectively banned abortions after six weeks of pregnancy. The latest ruling would allow abortions up to 20 weeks. Chris Carr, the state's Republican Attorney General, announced he will appeal the ruling. He said, “We believe Georgia's life act is fully constitutional.”  Kris Kristofferson died Kris Kristofferson died Saturday at 88 years of age.  Haunted through his lifetime by the Christian faith, the singer songwriter of "Why Me Lord?" and "Sunday Morning Coming Down" was known for his contemplative lyrics.  KRISTOFFERSON: “Lord, help me, Jesus, I've wasted it. So, help me, Jesus. I know what I am. Now that I know that I needed You so, help me, Jesus. My soul's in Your hand.” Alex Kendrick chats with Adam McManus And finally, today, as I guest host for Kevin Swanson on Generations Radio, I chat with Alex Kendrick who co-wrote and directed the Christian film called The Forge. It highlights the power of Christian discipleship. KENDRICK: “We wrote this script about a young 19-year-old who has graduated high school, trying to figure out what direction he goes in life. His father's abandoned him, but he does have a praying mother, and she's asking God to send someone into his life that can call him to faith in You and help mentor him as he steps into manhood. “We watch the path of young Isaiah, the 19-year-old, go on the ups and downs of stepping into manhood, embracing responsibility, and growing in his faith. By the end of the film, we hope that people say, ‘I want that to happen to me' or perhaps one of your children.” Take a listen to my conversation with Christian filmmaker Alex Kendrick at Generations.org/radio. That's Generations.org/radio. The Forge is still in 700 theaters. So, make plans to see it this week if you haven't already done so. To find a theater near you, go to TheForgeMovie.com.  My family laughed and cried. And we were inspired to be better disciples of Christ and to help fulfill the Great Commission by making disciples.

​THE FORGE​, the newest Christian movie from the Kendrick Brothers, is a powerful illustration and reminder that discipleship matters!Guest host Adam McManus​ interviews Alex Kendrick,​ the co-writer and director of the film, which has already made $27 million domestically since August 23rd. At its height, THE FORGE was shown in 1,900 theaters. Still in 700 theaters today, go to the website www.TheForgeMovie.com​ to find out where it is playing near you.

The newest film by the legendary Kendrick brothers, currently playing in theaters, feels impeccably focus-grouped for maximum impact of a Christian movie in 2024. We're not surprised that director Alex Kendrick and producer Stephen Kendrick were able to create another competent and successful Christian film. They have a history of huge box office success stories on relatively low budgets, including WAR ROOM (2015) which notably became the #1 film in America during its second week of release. On a reported budget of $5 million, THE FORGE has already grossed $26 million in its first month, which is huge in the faith-based genre. THE FORGE seems like a spiritual sequel to WAR ROOM; it casts a lot of the same actors from WAR ROOM in extremely similar roles, including Priscilla Shirer (daughter of mega-church pastor Tony Evans) as a strong but exasperated mother struggling with family issues. In THE FORGE, newcomer Aspen Kennedy plays recent high school graduate Isaiah Wright, a directionless 19-year-old without a father who is unemployed and seems to have no passions in life beyond video games and basketball. When he gets a part time job at local business Moore Fitness, CEO Joshua Moore (played by Cameron Arnett) takes Isaiah under his wing and becomes the father he never had. With the help of an exclusive Christian men's club called “The Forge”, Isaiah finally feels motivation to become the man he has always wanted to be. But unspoken in the film's plot is how the setting of THE FORGE, Moore Fitness, is meant to resemble an Amazon fulfillment warehouse. THE FORGE attempts to bring dignity and motivation to fulfillment center employees through an unimaginable plot line where Isaiah and his coworkers volunteer to work a 24 hour shift to save the company. Sadly, this feels laughably out of touch for a film that otherwise does an eerily good job of elevating the mundane of an everyday Christian's life in today's fallen world.

Feeling unfulfilled in her role as a mother, she decides to decompress with a night on the town accompanied by her two best friends Sondra and Izzy. Despite the full support each mom gets from her family for a well-deserved break, the act of the moms leaving their respective houses triggers a series of chaotic and traumatic events that are supposed to be funny but are actually extremely stressful. Every character is a terrible communicator, and you get the sense that moms having fun disrupts some kind of ancient social order to the point of severe consequences for everyone involved. Directed by the Erwin brothers (I STILL BELIEVE), MOMS' NIGHT OUT is a competently-produced and commercially successful film, drawing appeal from its relatively star-studded cast including Sarah Drew (GREY'S ANATOMY) Sean Astin (LORD OF THE RINGS), Patricia Heaton (EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND) and country singer Trace Adkins. Even more important to us at Boys' Bible Study are featured performances by Christian film scene veterans Andrea Logan and also Alex Kendrick, one of the famous Kendrick Brothers, who have created and starred in some of the highest grossing Christian movies of all time. We were excited to watch MOMS' NIGHT OUT for Mothers' Day, but forgot, so we watched it for “Mothers' Day In July” and ended up being horrified by the film's grating millennial humor and depiction of each character as simultaneously whiny and helpless yet obsessively self-important. Bible Boy Julian calls the depcition of family in MOMS' NIGHT OUT “scarier than THE HANDMAID'S TALE” and we think our gentle listeners will agree.

The relationship we have with our earthly fathers shapes our view of God the Father. Many fathers feel inadequate to lead and disciple their families, and their wives aren't sure how to encourage or help them lead. It turns into a vicious cycle that doesn't often end in a great family dynamic. Alex Kendrick speaks to the practice of discipleship and how it affects people in our homes.

Topics: (PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 33-minutes discussing the Christian-Marketed Movie Complex (CMMC, as coined by Melvin Benson) and positive ways in which it could be improved, rather than dogging on it as people are prone to do. (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)The verdict of a Party Pleaser can be for any reason, but Melvin thought it would be interesting to think about whether Fireproof would be edifying to watch with friends or not. You know, because it's a Christian-Marketed film.Melanie and Melvin agree: the movie starts very poorly. It's not much of a tone-setter for the rest of the film, and they each propose alternative ways for the film to open.Fireproof doesn't have successful comedy, and it's drama is oddly voyeuristic which makes for a very awkward film.Fireproof is just shy of 2 hours. To make it more palatable, it could have easily been trimmed.Occasionally Fireproof has some semi-well constructed sequences. They're very much in the "almost there" category.The first half of Fireproof showcases the result of marital dysfunction in Caleb, and the second half labors to show that equal-yet-opposite result in Kathryn.Upon reflection, Fireproof seems structurally sound, but the execution leaves itself wanting.Recommendations: Women of the Word: How to Study the Bible with Both Our Hearts and Our Minds by Jen Wilkin (Book)Abbott & Costello's Who's On First?

It's Thursday, February 23rd, A.D. 2023. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Sudanese authorities arrest Christian preaching to Muslims Last Friday, authorities in Sudan arrested a church leader for preaching to Muslims. Officials detained Yousif Ayoub Hussein Ali during an open-air worship event in the southeastern part of the African nation. Local Muslims complained that Ali's preaching would convert their children.  The local General Union of Christian Youth condemned the arrest as a continuation of systematic persecution of Christians in the country.  Sudan is ranked 10th on the Open Doors World Watch List of nations where it is most difficult to be a Christian. Spain expands abortion access Spain's Parliament passed a new law last Thursday, expanding access to abortion. The law eliminates a three-day waiting period before an abortion as well as requirements to give women information on alternatives. Health care providers that conscientiously object to performing abortions will now be listed in a public registry. Currently, private centers do most of the killings since so many doctors in the state health system refuse to participate.  The law also mandates the promotion of sexually perverted lifestyles in all educational levels. Psalm 9:17 warns, “The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” Putin no longer abides by nukes treaty On Tuesday, Russian President Vladimir Putin gave his state-of-the-nation address. His nearly 2-hour-long speech was the first address he's given since the invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Putin announced Russia is suspending its participation in the New START treaty. It's the last surviving nuclear-arms-control treaty between the U.S. and Russia. The treaty put a limit on how many nukes both countries can have. Will America default on its debt? The Congressional Budget Office announced last week the U.S. would default on its debt unless Congress raises the debt ceiling this summer. By September, the U.S. Treasury will have run out of emergency measures unless the $31.4 trillion debt limit is raised. These extraordinary measures allow the government to keep borrowing money for its obligations.  House Republicans are demanding federal spending cuts in exchange for raising the debt ceiling. The Congressional Budget Office estimates the U.S. deficit will reach $18.8 trillion over the next 10 years.  Kentucky church still fighting against COVID lockdown A church in Kentucky is still fighting for its religious freedom after being targeted during COVID-19 lockdowns. Liberty Counsel filed a brief with the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals last Friday on behalf of Maryville Baptist Church.  Back in 2020, police ticketed members of the church who were in their cars for a drive-in service. The brief states that the church is the prevailing party in the case and entitled to attorney's fees and costs. Southern Baptists expels Saddleback over female pastors On Tuesday, the Executive Committee of the Southern Baptist Convention determined five of its churches are “not in friendly cooperation with the Convention.” Such terminology is used for expelling a church from the denomination. The five churches continue to have female pastors in violation of the Southern Baptist Convention's statement of faith. In 1 Timothy 2:12, the Apostle Paul writes, "I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent.” One of the congregations is Saddleback Church, the second-largest congregation to be part of the Southern Baptist Convention, reports The Christian Post. Asbury Revival started from message on confession & repentance Tens of thousands of people have flocked to Asbury University in Wilmore, Kentucky. A non-stop worship service has been going at the Kentucky college since February 8. It all began after a chapel service with a message on confession and repentance. Afterward, students remained to continue worshipping. More and more students came, and the service just didn't stop as people from across the country showed up for weeks. Asbury University said that Monday was its concluding public worship service. From Tuesday onward, services would be held off campus.  Kevin Brown, the university's president, said, “We cannot fully express the profound gratitude we have for stewarding this outpouring in the life of our school and beyond. Ultimately, we pray that our efforts in these days point to our Savior.” Alex Kendrick on Asbury revival: “Praise God!” In God's providence, this outpouring is also appearing at other colleges around the country.  Christian filmmaker Alex Kendrick visited one of these spots on Monday at Lee University in Cleveland, Tennessee. He said there was no show or spectacle other than seeing hearts transformed.  KENDRICK: “What's going on in Asbury, Lee University, Samford University, Cedarville [University] in Ohio -- there's a number of colleges that are now seeking the Lord. Praise God for this generation that is seeking after God. Oh, it's just good. Man, it fills my heart! P raise the Lord. Let's pray that the Lord keeps moving as He wills.” God said in 2 Chronicles 7:14, “If My people who are called by My name humble themselves, and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Thursday, February 23rd in the year of our Lord 2023. Subscribe by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

The national media is all abuzz with what is happening at Asbury College in Kentucky.  So far, 100,000 people have made their pilgrimage to the scene of the revivals. But how does the Bible define revival? What is it to be revived spiritually, and what are the biblical indications of a true Holy Spirit outpouring? Why is preaching and the Word of God more on the back burner with modern revivals — displaced by “worship music,” testimony, and prayer groups? This program includes: 1.

It's Tuesday, September 13th, A.D. 2022. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus.  (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Egyptian Muslims kill Christian father and son A Christian father and son have been shot dead by Muslim jihadists in Egypt, reports The Barnabas Fund. Salama Moussa Waheeb and his son, Hany, were working on their family farm on August 30th near the town of al-Qantara Sharq in mid-west Sinai when they were killed. Pray for the family of Salama and Hany Waheeb that they will receive the Lord's comfort and strength as they come to terms with their loss. Psalm 5:4-7 declares, “For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness.  … You shall destroy those who speak falsehood; The Lord abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man. But as for me, I will come into Your house in the multitude of Your mercy; in fear of You I will worship toward Your holy temple.” Iranian pastor sentenced to 10 years in jail An Iranian pastor, named Jospeh Shahbazian, has been sentenced to ten years in jail, while two other congregants were ordered to serve six years for their involvement in a house church in Iran, reports ArticleEighteen.com. Two others were saddled with fines.  All five lost their appeal recently before the 26th Revolutionary Court of Tehran. Iran is the ninth worst country in the world for the persecution of Christians, according to Open Doors. Lifemark, the Christian pro-life movie, came in seventh Lifemark, the film with a pro-life message which stars Kirk Cameron, came in seventh place in America's weekend box office with $2.2 million in ticket sales, reports Box Office Mojo.  Averaging $1,444 per theater, the film, produced by Stephen and Alex Kendrick, beat out all but the top two box office releases for the week. Still, it's a far cry from the Kendrick Brothers' recent releases of Overcomer and War Room, which earned $8 million and $11 million respectively on their opening weekends.  Lifemark will only be in the theaters through this Thursday, September 15th.  So, you have 3 nights left to show your support and watch an inspirational Christian movie about adoption. Watch the trailer and get your tickets at a theater near you through special links in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Heritage awards worst states on regulation and spending The survey is in for the Heritage Foundation's first Education Freedom Report Card. And the worst state in America is New York.  The District of Columbia was an equal disaster. Surveying states for regulatory freedom, school choice, transparency, and spending, the best state is Florida, followed by Arizona, Idaho, Indiana, and South Dakota.   The worst states for spending are Connecticut, New Jersey, and Vermont. The District of Columbia did equally poorly. And the worst states for regulation on parental freedoms are Delaware, Maryland, Oregon, Washington, Rhode Island, and Illinois. The study included an assessment of the percentage of homeschooled children, and the ranking of regulative controls issued by Home School Legal Defense Association.  Michigan judge strikes down ban on abortion as unconstitutional Michigan's 90-year-old law banning abortion has been ruled to violate the state constitution, reports CBS News.   Judge Elizabeth Gleicher of the Michigan Court of Claims ruled last week that prosecutors may not enforce the law in accordance with the reversal of Roe v. Wade in June. The decision was followed Thursday by the State Supreme Court approving a ballot measure for November which would open up sweeping abortion rights for the state. Recent polls indicate that 55% of Michigan voters want abortion “mostly legal.” Similar state-wide ballot measures are scheduled for November in California, Vermont, Kentucky and Montana. The contentious Brazilian presidential election Elections are approaching for the fifth largest country in the world. Brazil will have its nationwide election for president on October 1st.   The incumbent, Jair Bolsonaro, is a pro-family values conservative, facing off against former Brazilian President Luiz da Silva. Bolsonaro is trailing in what is expected to be a runoff election, by 51%-39%, reports Reuters.   The Economist is predicting Bolsonaro's loss. Brazil's skyrocketing debt and lack of financial freedom Following in the pattern of the US, Brazil's debt to Gross Domestic Product ratio increased from 60% to 105% since 2014. Brazil remains one of the least free nations in South America, ranked as the 133rd least free nation in the world, by the Heritage Foundation's annual survey. Plus, their conservative president has met with stiff resistance from the nation's Congress and Supreme Court to enact tax reforms.  Brazil's blossoming homeschool movement Homeschoolers in Brazil are hoping for favorable legislation that has made it through the Lower House, and heads to the Senate for a final vote. The national legislation would allow families to homeschool, as long as the children are enrolled in public or private school, and provide the school with records on a periodic basis. There are an estimated 75,000 homeschooled children in Brazil at present. In fact, their first-ever national homeschooling conference was held in Brasilia, the capital, just last week and attended by 1,000 people.  In a gracious nod to the movement, the nation's president invited the homeschoolers to participate in the bicentennial parade in the capital city on Wednesday.  Psalm 144:11-12 presents the vision for our sons and daughters in Christian families around the world. “Rescue me and deliver me from the hand of foreigners, whose mouth speaks lying words, and whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood— That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; That our daughters may be as pillars, sculptured in palace style.” Only one-third of pastors believe the tithe is binding And finally, new Barna research finds that only one-third of pastors believe the tithe is binding on Christians today. And 40% of practicing Christians do give a tithe. In 1924, total church charitable offerings exceeded 2.8% of the Gross Domestic Product. This ratio declined to about 0.6% of the GDP in 2020. A recently released Lily Foundation report also found that 29 percent of American households donated to religious causes in 2018. By 2000, 46.5 percent gave.   Also, in 2018, the average total donation to religious causes was $771. By  2000, it increased to $1,107.

But now this. Ghandara News reports that Turkey is persecuting the persecuted. Turkish security forces are using live ammunition and physical force to keep Afghans from entering their borders. So far this year, Turkey has deported nearly 43,000 Afghans. Afghanistan economy has collapsed The Afghanistan economy has completely collapsed, reports CNBC. Humanitarian aid to Afghanistan is not enough to sustain its economy, according to the UN Development Program. Several provincial hospitals in Afghanistan witnessed a 70%-90% increase in the treatment of malnourished children over the first six months of the year, and 75% of the children screened in the Shah Joy district were “acutely malnourished.”  Sergio Mainetti, Acting Country Director for INTERSOS in Afghanistan, told Intersos News, “The economic crash that has happened as a result of the sanctions against the Taliban and the freezing of the country's assets are having a devastating impact. People have lost their jobs, food prices have gone sky high, and to add to their problems, the drought means that many people have lost their livelihoods as well.” Psalm 10:2 says, “The wicked in his pride persecutes the poor. Let them be caught in the plots which they have devised.” NASDAQ has dropped 13% The markets open today with the U.S. NASDAQ coming out of a two-week 13% decline. The gold price is $1,712 per ounce, and silver weighs in at $18.20 per ounce. Bitcoin hovered around $19,700 Monday. 10 Canadians killed & 18 injured in stabbing spree On September 4th, a bizarre stabbing spree in Canada resulted in the murder of 10 people and the wounding of 18, reports CBC. The violence took place in 13 different locations in and around Weldon, Saskatchewan and James Smith Cree Nation. Police from Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba are searching for Myles Sanderson, age 30, and Damien Sanderson, age 31, after the attacks prompted a dangerous-persons alert. Earlier this year, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau introduced legislation to put a national freeze on the purchase and sale of handguns.  More Americans upset with Roe overturn than inflation The Wall Street Journal reports that support for the legalization of abortion among Americans has increased by 5% since March. Now, 60% of voters, including 27% of Republicans, say abortion should be legal in most cases. Only 30% support a 15-week ban. When the poll gave a choice of five issues, and asked which made them most likely to vote, respondents put the Supreme Court ruling overturning Roe v. Wade ahead of inflation. Pro-“gay marriage” woman next British Prime Minister In the providence of God, the United Kingdom will have a new Prime Minister today —  the nation's third female in the top position.    A member of the Conservative Party, Liz Truss has advocated for homosexual faux marriage and environmentalism throughout her political career. When asked about her faith, Ms. Trust said, “I share the values of the Christian faith and the Church of England, but I'm not a regular practicing religious person.” She will be the 15th female head of state out of 45 European countries, a list that includes Scotland, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, and Sweden. That's the largest number of female heads of state in European history. The trend towards introducing women as heads of state began in the late 1970s.  British economy dropped to sixth largest from first The British economy used to be the largest economy in the world, but now it's shifted to sixth place behind India, according to a recent IMF report. India exceeded its former colonial ruler in the first quarter of 2021, 75 years after the nation secured its independence. Deuteronomy 28 reminds the nations of this principle. “You shall come down lower and lower. … He shall be the head, and you shall be the tail. … Because you did not serve the Lord your God with joy and gladness of heart, for the abundance of everything, therefore you shall serve your enemies.” (Deut. 28:43,44, 47) Get your tickets ASAP for Lifemark, the pro-life movie And finally, Lifemark, the movie, hits the screens this Friday, September 9th. And it's only in the theaters for 7 days. It's critical to get your tickets for Friday and Saturday in particular. From executive producers Kirk Cameron and the Kendrick Brothers, Lifemark is an inspiring true story which affirms the value of life in a culture of death. Listen to this clip from Alex Kendrick's appearance on Generations Radio. KENDRICK: “In 2019, we were finishing our last movie, Overcomer, and we get a call from Kirk Cameron. He says, ‘Guys, I've just watched this short documentary called ‘I Lived on Parker Avenue.' Man, it grabbed my heart. You've got to watch this thing!' So, Steve and I pull it up and watch it. “It is the true story of an 18-year-old girl who rolls off the abortion table at the last second as the procedure is starting. She says, ‘I can't do this.' She places her baby for adoption. That baby was adopted by a Christian couple that could not have children. They named the baby David. “Eighteen years later, David gets to meet his biological mother. She thought he would hate her because of what she was going to do and giving him up and he wrapped her up in a hug and said, ‘No. Thank you, thank you, thank you for letting me live! Thank you for letting me be adopted.' He now is married and speaks around the country on behalf of adoption and choosing life. “We say this has got to be a feature film. So, that's when we made Lifemark. And we had no idea Roe vs. Wade will be overturned. So, God is doing something.” Watch the trailer and purchase your tickets ASAP at www.LifemarkMovie.com.

It's Tuesday, August 16th, A.D. 2022. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus.  (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Early Rain Covenant Church hit by Chinese Communists again The Early Rain Covenant Church has been hit again with another government raid in the southwestern Chinese province of Sichuan, reports Radio Free Asia. Xing Hongwei, a Christian writer and translator, was detained. The well- coordinated attack included 23 uniformed police officers and eight or nine plainclothes police for a gathering of 50 church members. The Chengdu police department is taking a "zero tolerance" approach to the gathering of Christians for fellowship and Bible study. Thailand embraces debauchery Thailand may be one of the few Asian countries following the West into debauchery.  The country has legalized marijuana. Plus, the nation's legislature is close to passing a law allowing for civil partnerships between two members of the same gender living in a state of unnatural relations. Taiwan was the first Asian nation to approve of homosexual faux marriage in 2019.   China increased pressure on Taiwan China continued military exercises near Taiwan yesterday, following an official visit of five members of the U.S. Congress over the weekend.  The communist country's saber-rattling began several weeks ago when Speaker of the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, paid a visit to the island nation. The People's Liberation Army's Eastern Theatre Command  has announced these drills in preparation for “operations of joint defense and joint blockade,” reports the South China Morning Post. Psalm 9:1 and 5 tells of God's sovereignty over the nations: “I will praise You, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will tell of all Your marvelous works. . . You have rebuked the nations, You have destroyed the wicked; You have blotted out their name forever and ever.” Hollywood rejects Kendrick's pro-life movie Hollywood studios don't mind promoting films about fatherhood and prayer, movies like “War Room” and “Courageous.” But when Alex Kendrick looked for distribution for his soon-to-be-released pro-life film, “Lifemark,” he hit a stone wall. Kendrick told Christian Headlines, “They all turned down the film. They said, ‘We're not releasing this one because we're scared of the response.'” The film, produced by Alex Kendrick and directed by Kevin Peeples, will be released in 1,400 theaters the week of September 9th. You can watch the trailer through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. 49% of Texans disapproved of Roe's overturn A Dallas Morning News survey of 1,384 Texans found 49% disapproved of the overturning of Roe v. Wade versus 42% in favor of it.  According to popular opinion, Texas is the twelfth most pro-life state in the country. In addition, Pew Research revealed the eight most pro-life states by popular opinion are West Virginia, Kentucky, Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee, and South Carolina. Also, an Axios poll found that 54% of Americans would vote in favor of abortion's legality given the choice on the ballot, whereas 28% say that they would vote against it. The passage from Psalm 106: 37 & 40 addresses this sin. “They even sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons, and shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters. ... Therefore, the wrath of the Lord was kindled against His people.” California legislators considering 18 pro-abortion bills California is leading the abortion charge in the country now, as the Golden State Legislature considers 18 separate bills dedicated to abortion. The prospective pro-death laws address abortion providers, access to abortion, funding of abortion, licensing of abortion providers, abortion research, abortion fairness, paid time-off for abortion, telehealth for abortion, and protections for abortion providers. Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom has proclaimed California an “abortion sanctuary state.” Sparing no expense, he is even offering taxpayer-funding of out-of-state abortions. Tragically, California's Infanticide bill, AB 2223, which would allow the murder of a newborn up until 28 days old, has passed the state house. It's headed to the state senate for approval. Biden to sign so-called “Inflation Reduction Bill” today President Joe Biden is slated to sign the so-called “Inflation Reduction Act” into law today — complete with a tax increase, a huge increase for the IRS, and additional funding for environmental causes and healthcare, reports CBS News. The U.S. House of Representatives passed the bill on a party-line vote last Friday. Home builder confidence at low point Home builder confidence in the country has dropped off for eight consecutive months. It's the worst stretch since the 2007 recession, reports the National Association of Home Builders. The total volume of single-family housing starts is headed for an annual decline this year, the first decrease in 10 years. Liberal PAC ordered to pay $8.2 million to Judge Roy Moore And finally, good news for Roy Moore, the retired Alabama Chief Justice and Ten Commandments advocate. He was awarded $8.2 million damages in a federal court, for a derogatory advertisement placed by the Senate Majority PAC during his 2017 bid for the U.S. Senate. The controversies generated by the ad during the special election are thought to have contributed to his narrow defeat to Democrat Doug Jones in the special election. Out of the 1,320,000 votes cast, Moore lost by 21,311 votes. In 2020, when Jones ran for re-election, he subsequently lost to Republican Tommy Tuberville by a wide margin.
