Bible information and education is plentiful here in America. However, that's not the case in other parts of the world. Our plenty often blinds us to this reality and as such, we don't see the harvest that's before us, especially in nations such as Pakistan. Islam is the official state religion there and according to the 2017 census, 96.5% of Pakistanis identify as Muslim so the need for God's Word there is as great as ever. Joining Jim to discuss this issue live from Pakistan was Pastor Shahid Kaleem. He's founder and chairman of Christian Literature & Translation Ministry in Pakistan. He's been partnering for several years with Bible Tracts, Inc. for effective ministry of Bible tract and Bible distribution ministry in Pakistan. Don't miss this broadcast as Pastor Kaleem talks about the tensions with India, what it's like to live for Christ in Pakistan, specific challenges that believers are facing due to their faith, what his ministry is doing to meet the needs of people in Pakistan, what you can do to participate in this effort and much more!

Jim noted that today Senator Ron Johnson held a hearing and released 2,400 pages of records detailing the failure of federal health agencies, under the Biden administration, to properly warn the public about the risk of myocarditis-related heart inflammation conditions following the mRNA COVID-19 vaccinations. Dr. Vliet responded by indicating how unconscionable it was that our taxpayer dollars were going to federal agencies that were lying to us and allowing people to die as a result of their push of this experimental, gene-therapy shot. This is the first salvo in a program that looks at other troubling news coming forth concerning the COVID-19 shots. For example, Dr. Vliet commented on the following: A peer reviewed study in Pediatric Rheumatology indicates that children and adolescents who received at least one COVID-19 shot had a 23% higher risk of developing autoimmune disease compared to unvaccinated children. Scientists at Johns Hopkins University confirm that COVID vaccines are reducing human population by lowering birth rates. A senior medical advisor at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, who is also a world-renowned virologist, is warning that the mRNA vaccines are a dangerous experiment as he raises alarms about the presence of the cancer-causing SV-40 enhancer in the injections.

Kelsey Pritchard is political affairs communications director for Susan B. Anthony (SBA) Pro-Life America.When Planned Parenthood released their annual report for 2023-2024, we learned that during that fiscal year, 402,230 baby boys and girls were slaughtered in the womb through their actions. That's over 1,100 babies coming to their death every single day.If that's not shocking enough, consider the fact that you paid for this! Planned Parenthood took in over 792 million dollars in taxpayer funds through reimbursements and grants.How many of these children would have been part of our lives in some way as co-workers, classmates or family members? It's because of Planned Parenthood's efforts, fueled by the 2 million in daily taxpayer funding they've received, that these individuals were never able to be part of our world.Kelsey warns women not to be fooled by the marketing efforts of Planned Parenthood because behind the attempts to look like a friend of women, their primary focus is to take the lives of the most vulnerable among us.Interestingly, both NPR and the New York Times have recognized the harm that Planned Parenthood can do. Kelsey cited a New York Times report that came out in February detailing the atrocious conditions and experiences that women have had.This is just some of the information you'll hear discussed during the first quarter hour of this broadcast.

There is a growing clash in our society today between biblical Christianity and secular culture. These worldviews stand in opposition to one another. Many in our secular world system will be very vocal and forceful in their views. As such, many believers will step back and not want to make waves or do not respond due to a lack of confidence that they can provide a solid defense of the faith. And yet we read in Scripture as found in I Peter 3:15, "But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear." Perhaps you already know you need help in this area. If so, we have some good news as a powerful tool has recently been published to equip you in defending the faith. Joining Crosstalk to tell us about this new tool was Sarah Enterline. Sarah is an author, apologist, pastor's wife, mother, teacher and women's ministry leader. She has taught apologetics, biblical studies, philosophy, and history at both the secondary and college levels.Apologetics comes from the Greek word: apologia. Sarah said it's like a defense lawyer in an ancient courtroom presenting a defense, showing that their arguments are true. It can be applied to any discipline and in the case of biblical apologetics, it involves presenting a robust case, building evidence to show why the Bible and biblical Christianity are part of the one true faith.What are some of the obstacles that may cause Christians to not defend their faith? What are the 5 ways to show that God exists? What evidence exists of things and people mentioned in the Bible?

Many believers in the United States are totally oblivious to religious persecution taking place around the world and really have little concept as to what is taking place. Most believers in the U.S. will get up in the morning, go through their daily activities: work, meals, appointments, leisure and go to bed at night without even a hint of a thought to believers in Christ that are being persecuted. Did you know religious persecution has been escalating in countries around the world? As a matter of fact, many are paying with their very lives on account of their faith. Executions alone in 2024 had a 32% increase compared to 2023. One of the leading persecutors is the CCP, the Chinese Communist Party. This Crosstalk seeks to increase your awareness as to what is going on with believers in China, but also in other countries around the world as well.

He's traveled to more than 70 countries thus gaining extensive knowledge of what is happening to religious freedom. He has a passion for the persecuted. He is author of Islam Uncensored and Last Words of the Martyrs.Concerning China, Jeff noted that leader Xi Jinping is currently in a crackdown phase. This phase includes knocking churches down, tearing down crosses, constant pressure to have churches come under state control, secret arrests, torture, abuse and murder. In spite of all this, the Marxist leaders there simply don't understand that the more you try to stamp out the church, the more it grows.

Last Thursday, white smoke came forth from the Sistine Chapel indicating a new pope had been selected. As the smoke rose, the throngs gathered in St. Peter's Square burst forth in cheers. Then the name was revealed. Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, at age 69, had been named the new pope, the first pope to ever come from the United States. His official papal name: Pope Leo XIV. Crowds swelled as the first public appearance was named. So, who exactly is Pope Leo XIV? What is his belief system? Will he point individuals to Jesus Christ as the only way of salvation and Jesus as being the only mediator between God and man or will he be leading followers down the same pathway of deception just as his predecessors?Returning to Crosstalk to bring a biblical perspective concerning this new pope was Mike Gendron. Mike is founder and director of Proclaiming the Gospel Ministry.Mike noted that Pope Leo XIV appears to be very well qualified to run an international organization. He speaks 5 different languages and is well educated with advanced degrees in mathematics and theology. However, is he qualified to be the head of the church that Catholics believe was founded by Jesus Christ? Mike answers that and much more as he explains the following:The historic significance of this new pope's name. Leo XIV called himself a successor to Peter. Is he?Do the Scriptures tell us anywhere about walking with Mary as Pope Leo XIV has communicated? The blasphemous and unscriptural nature of calling a pope "holy." Was the pope biblically incorrect to say that, "...individuals are reborn in the waters of baptism"?Will this pope be conservative or liberal?

A steamroller levels most anything that gets in its way. This is a good analogy for big government and the deep-state as it doesn't care about private property, individual freedom or independence.

Returning to Crosstalk to discuss this issue was Tom DeWeese. Tom is president of American Policy Center. He is one of the nation's leading advocates of individual liberty, free enterprise, private property rights, personal privacy, back-to-basics education and American sovereignty and independence and protecting our Constitutionally-guaranteed rights.Tom has written that the carbon capture pipeline is one of the worst environmental scams ever. The idea is to take carbon dioxide (which is basically plant food) out of the atmosphere and bury it underground. He believes this doesn't help the environment, it's damaging to it but that shouldn't surprise anyone when you realize that this is about controlling farmers and private property.Which states are seeing efforts to place a carbon capture pipeline?

For example, Brad noted how in Canada in 2020 they introduced a bill to remove "Reasonably Foreseeable Death." This has been expanded to include those with serious disabilities or chronic illness even though they're not terminally ill. Now there's pressure to expand this to patients with dementia or mental illness although the outcry appears to have put this off for the time being. However, he indicated they still expect to pass this as people become desensitized to this and opposition dies down. Why do some say we need the option of death with dignity?

It was by a joint resolution of Congress, signed into law by President Harry Truman, that the National Day of Prayer was established to be observed on the first Thursday of May.While having national recognition of prayer is important, what about at the personal level? After all, each of us has the privilege of coming before God in His grace and in the name of His son Jesus Christ, to intercede for our nation, its leaders, churches and families. Unfortunately, such prayer is often relegated to a single day when it should be a vital part of every day. No one knows this better than Evangelist Harold Vaughan. He is founder and president of Christ Life Ministries, Inc. Harold trusted Christ as Savior in his teen years. While in Bible College the Lord called him to enter the ministry as an evangelist. He has a passion for reaching the lost and to encourage the local church.Harold noted that prayer starts in the hearts of people, yet he sees faith-based effective prayer as being at a low ebb in the church at this time. Should we be surprised it's this way when as Harold also pointed out, many churches were not founded as churches of prayer, but rather as houses of preaching, programs, politics or personality. So listen to this broadcast and learn why prayer is such a passion for Harold, what's keeping so many believers from having a regular and effective prayer life, as well as guidance for personal prayer, family prayer, corporate church prayer and showing how this is all to be scripturally driven.

You'll also hear Chris detail the U.S. role in the formation of modern Israel, the modern advances that have come about because of Israel, the upcoming Great Tribulation and much more.

In 1933, the concept of the first 100 days was measured under the presidency of Franklin D. Roosevelt. It became a political benchmark for comparing the performance of every president since that time. Today marks 100 days since Donald Trump was inaugurated as the 47th president of the United States and, as you've probably noticed, the media has been making comments, evaluations, deciphering polls and more. This edition of Crosstalk reminded listeners about what President Trump has been able to accomplish in his first 100 days. For example: --From the Department of Homeland Security, Jim noted that the Biden administration refused to enforce the nation's laws on border security, but in just 100 days, Trump and Secretary Noem have not only closed our border, but have delivered the most secure border in American history with daily border encounters down 93%.--President Trump ended the CBP-1 app that allowed more than one million aliens to enter the U.S. illegally. This disastrous program was replaced with the CBP Home app, a self-deportation reporting feature for aliens illegally in America. --President Trump signed the Laken Riley Act. This mandates the federal detention of illegal aliens accused of burglary, assaulting a law enforcement officer or any crime resulting in death or serious bodily injury.--President Trump designated international drug cartels and other criminal gangs as foreign terrorist organizations.--The president reopened the Victims of Immigration Crime Engagement Office that was shuttered by the Biden administration.
