Welcome to a special bonus episode of the Jesus Calling Podcast, focusing on the tragic events in Texas that happened in July 2025 with deadly flooding in Kerr County, and the heroic folks who have come to the aid of those who have lost so much. Devastating floods, triggered by torrential rains and the rapidly rising Guadalupe River, struck Kerr County, Texas. This catastrophe, which resulted in numerous missing persons and confirmed deaths, now stands as the second deadliest flood in Texas history. As search efforts for the missing continue and debris cleanup is underway, singer/songwriter Cory Asbury, known for his song “Reckless Love,” alongside other musicians, organized a benefit concert. Their aim was to provide hope, solace, and aid to the affected families who are striving to rebuild their lives. Cory highlights how these families’ experiences have resonated nationwide, underscoring the enduring power of love in times of adversity.

We’re praying for you guys, we’re behind you guys, we know what you’re going through, and we’re with you in whatever capacity we can be.” - Cory Asbury “We put together the benefit show in literally 10 days. We did this show in Nashville as sort of an extension of love from here. To see people come together like that was really beautiful.” - Cory Asbury “It was emotional just being able to gather for those folks and know that we can do something, whether big or small, to kind of lighten their load.” - Cory Asbury “I have been able to personally see the work that [Youth-Reach Houston has] done. And it's truly incredible to see these families when they knock on the door and say, ‘Hey, can we cut these trees down for you? Can we rebuild your roof?’ And to watch these families just weep knowing that God is there with them is incredible.” - Cory Asbury “I feel like [the song] ‘Reckless Love’ is the opus of my life. I feel like it encapsulates all of my life, all of my experiences. It was me knowing what an absolute failure I was on so many colossal levels. And then God’s still going, ‘Hey, I’m still beating down your door. I still want you. I’m still chasing you down, though you’re chasing after other things.’” - Cory Asbury “Through all things with prayer and supplication, make your request known to God, right? So we open our mouths and we go, ‘God, I can’t do this. I’m freaking out. I don’t know how to deal with this situation. Can you please help?’ And I think there's something beautiful to that honesty that He steps in and He helps.” - Cory Asbury “There’s no better prescription for anxiety or stress than to actually take it to [God] in prayer.

Texas lawmakers, ignoring devastating floods, shamelessly prioritize a discriminatory bathroom bill, mandating transgender individuals use restrooms based on birth sex. This vile legislation, cloaked in false protection, exposes a hateful agenda to control and endanger marginalized citizens. It's a blatant example of bigoted politicians weaponizing fear and "purity culture" to oppress, rather than address actual crises. The true intent is not protection, but public shaming and identification, harkening back to dark historical periods of government-sanctioned dehumanization. A clear call for human rights over baseless prejudice.Kerr County Flood Relief Fund: https://cftexashillcountry.fcsuite.com/erp/donate/create/fund?funit_id=4201News Source:Transgender bathroom bill added to Texas flood relief special sessionBy Brooke Sopelsa for NBC NewsJuly 15, 2025

President Xi Jinping has called for all-out search and rescue of the missing and trapped and immediate relocation of those in danger in order to minimize casualties following recent floods and geological disasters triggered by torrential rain across East China, North China and Northeast China.Xi, who is also general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, made the remarks on Monday in an instruction on flood and disaster relief work.Noting that the storms have led to significant casualties and property losses in Beijing, as well as in Hebei, Jilin and Shandong provinces, Xi said that solid efforts must be made in all aspects of flood prevention, emergency rescue and disaster relief.No effort should be spared to search for and rescue those missing or trapped, to transfer and resettle residents in affected areas, and to reduce casualties to the greatest extent possible, he said.As China enters the peak flood season, Xi said that all localities and departments should be prepared for worst-case and extreme scenarios, fully assume their political responsibilities, and implement flood control measures with meticulous attention to detail.He also urged them to closely monitor and firmly guard weak points and key areas, allocate rescue forces and disaster relief supplies in a scientific way, and ensure an immediate response and prompt handling in the event of emergencies, with every effort made to safeguard people's lives and property.Noting the significant casualties caused by the torrential rain and flooding in Beijing's Miyun district, Premier Li Qiang ordered in an instruction on Monday that every effort must be made to search for the missing, properly resettle those affected, and do everything possible to minimize further loss of life.Li said that given the continued heavy rainfall in parts of North China, the State Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters should guide local governments in enhancing disaster preparedness and improving early warning systems.He also urged efforts to strengthen patrols and inspections for risk at rivers, reservoirs and dikes, as well as investigations into urban flooding hazards, and promptly relocate people in danger in order to effectively safeguard people's lives and property.Beijing issued its first red alert of the year for rainstorms on Monday as torrential rains battered northern China and triggered deadly landslides in neighboring regions.The Beijing Meteorological Service forecast that from 8 pm on Monday to 7 am on Tuesday, most districts would see more than 150 millimeters of rain within six hours, with some areas receiving up to 300 mm. Authorities warned of the heightened risk of secondary disasters such as flash floods, landslides and waterlogging in low-lying urban areas.In response, the capital city initiated a top-level flood emergency response at 8 pm on Monday, urging residents to stay indoors. In-person classes were suspended, and nonessential businesses were advised to implement remote working, the city's emergency management authority said.Residents near rivers or flood-prone zones were told to prepare for possible evacuations, while emergency crews remained on high alert.Beijing's mountainous districts — including Miyun, Yanqing and Huairou — have endured consecutive days of downpours. The city mobilized personnel, vehicles and communication systems and deployed specialized equipment including drones, amphibious vehicles and mobile charging stations.Beijing revised contingency plans this year for managing risks at reservoirs, rivers, flood-prone zones and mountain torrent areas. Emergency supplies and trained rescue teams were deployed ahead of the flood season.To maintain communication in extreme weather, all villages in Beijing are now equipped with satellite phones and shortwave radios. In Bulaotun township — one of the three hardest-hit areas in Miyun — residents reached emergency responders using satellite phones several hours after rainstorms battered the area.As of 5 pm on Monday, more than 6,400 residents in Miyun district, over 6,700 residents in Pinggu district and over 10,400 residents in Huairou district had been evacuated, according to the Beijing News.Elsewhere in northern China, heavy rains have also caused severe disruptions and fatalities.The National Commission for Disaster Reduction activated an emergency relief response on Monday and sent a working team to assess damage and support local rescue efforts.

The date a flood relief scheme in Clare is expected to be submitted for planning approval has been pushed back to next year. Minister of State at the Department of Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform, Kevin Boxer Moran, said in April of this year that the Shannon Flood Relief Scheme would be submitted to An Coimisiún Pleanála "at the end of 2025". In a new response to a parliamentary question from Meelick Fianna Fáíl TD Cathal Crowe however, he says it's "scheduled to be submitted for planning approval in quarter two 2026". Newmarket-on-Fergus Fianna Fáil Councillor David Griffin insists that while it's a setback, it's important to take the time to ensure the application is watertight.

As Texans rally to support flood victims, state Attorney General Ken Paxton is investigating a GoFundMe campaign that his office says may be taking advantage of their generosity. Paxton issued a warning letter on Monday to Tray Coppola, the organizer of an unverified GoFundMe campaign, because of concerns that it may be a scam targeting those affected by recent floods in Texas. In other news, Dallas officials think they can meet the city's mandate of having at least 4,000 police officers in four years, though their hiring goals rely on a plan that the City Council voted to scale back months ago. The plan includes hiring 350 new officers over 12 months starting this fall and 400 new officers each following year until 2029; the stock of Veritex Holdings soared 20% on Monday, after the Dallas-based bank agreed to a nearly $2 billion buyout by Huntington Bancshares, a Midwest regional banking powerhouse with ambitions to deepen its Texas footprint; and Walmart is adding yet another store to the Dallas-Fort Worth area, but this one will come in a more compact size. The massive retailer is set to begin construction on a “Neighborhood Market” this fall in Mesquite and to complete the site in late summer of 2026. Learn more about your ad choices.
