Gia shares first-hand stories of believers who remain steadfast in their faith despite intense suffering. She challenges us to consider what true faith looks like in the face of opposition and how we, as the global Church, can stand in solidarity with those risking everything for the gospel.

Philip-Michael Tangorra on forgiveness in light of this weekend's Gospel readings, and Fr. Rob Jack on what the Church means by sin. Plus news, weather, sports and a whole lot more… ***** St. John Fisher's prayer for bishops Lord, according to Thy promise that the Gospel should be preached throughout the whole world, raise up men fit for such work. The Apostles were but soft and yielding clay till they were baked hard by the fire of the Holy Ghost. So, good Lord, do now in like manner with Thy Church militant, change and make the soft and slippery earth into hard stones. Set in Thy Church strong and mighty pillars that may suffer and endure great labors–watching, poverty, thirst, hunger, cold and heat–which also shall not fear the threatenings of princes, persecution, neither death, but always persuade and think with themselves to suffer with a good will, slanders, shame, and all kinds of torments, for the glory and laud of Thy Holy Name. By this manner, good Lord, the truth of Thy Gospel shall be preached throughout the world. Therefore, merciful Lord, exercise Thy mercy, show it indeed upon Thy Church. Amen. *****Andrew Swafford, contributor to A Catholic Guide to the Old Testament Info on Cincinnati Right to Life can be found at cincinnatirighttolife.org. Gia Chacon is online at forthemartyrs.com.

It's Thursday, September 22nd, A.D. 2022. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark March for the Martyrs in Washington, D.C. this Saturday People across the U.S. will gather for the third annual March for the Martyrs in Washington, D.C. on Saturday. The march through the streets of Washington will conclude with a Night of Prayer for the Persecuted. An estimated 360 million Christians live in places where they experience high levels of persecution. Gia Chacon, the founder of For the Martyrs, told The Christian Post the consistent need expressed by persecuted Christians around the world is this: “they will almost always say please continue to pray for us.” 1 Corinthians 12:26 says, “If one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.” Putin ordered 300,000 Russian reservists to battle Yesterday, Russian President Vladimir Putin  ordered a mobilization of up to 300,000 reservists for the country's war in Ukraine. It's Russia's first such call-up of reservists since World War II. The mobilization follows military setbacks in Ukraine. Russian officials arrested hundreds of people across dozens of its cities who protested the military call-up.  Putin threatened West with nukes In addition, Putin vowed to use “all means” to defend the regions, reports The Daily Mail. Listen. PUTIN: (in Russian)  “If the territorial integrity of our country is threatened, we will use all available means to protect Russia and our people - this is not a bluff.” He went on to say, “I shall stress - by all means available to us. Those trying to blackmail us with nuclear weapons should know that the tables can turn on them.” March for Life in Poland, Switzerland, and Pennsylvania Thousands of people marched for life over the last week in Europe and the U.S. In Poland, 10,000 people joined the 17th annual National March for Life and Family in Warsaw on Sunday. Polish President Andrzej Duda made a video appearance, praising the pro-family ideals of the march. In Switzerland, 1,000 people joined the Swiss March For Life in Zurich last Saturday. Police protected the demonstrators from far-left extremists who have attacked the march in previous years. And, here in the U.S., 5,000 people joined the Pennsylvania March for Life on Monday. It's the first statewide march for life since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade on June 24th. California and New York most hostile to religious liberty First Liberty Institute recently released their 2022 Religious Liberty in the States report. The report ranks states based on 11 religious liberty safeguards in state law. The safeguards cover issues like immunization, abortion, marriage, and general conscience protections.  The top two states, which did the best job of protecting religious liberty, were Mississippi followed by Illinois, surprisingly. Ranked at the bottom were California and New York. Most states ranked below 50% in terms of meeting the 11 legal safeguards.  Today's Congressmen are old Business Insider reports America's government is getting older much faster than it ever has before. The median age of Congress in the early 1800s was 44. Now, it's over 60. And the percentage of Congress over the age of 70 has skyrocketed since the 1990s from under 10% to over 20% now. Meanwhile, the age of the federal judiciary has also aged significantly since the 1800s. However, Donald Trump's appointments during his presidency did lower the median age of the federal judiciary by two years. Fed Reserve raised interest rates again The Federal Reserve  raised its benchmark interest rate by three-quarters of a percentage point yesterday. The Fed hopes to slow record inflation in a move that could also slow U.S. economic growth. The benchmark rates now sits at 3% to 3.25% and will likely increase to 4.4% by the end of the year. Christian school enrollment up A new report by DickersonBakker found Christian school enrollment has increased since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. About 80% of Christian school leaders say their enrollment has increased in the last two years with 43% saying it has increased substantially. The report found the top challenge Christian school leaders face is having enough classroom and facility space. Why Giving is Good And finally, the Barna Group released data from their new report entitled Why Giving is Good.  Practicing Christians (at 65%) were much more likely than the general U.S. adult population (at 46%) to say they have been the recipient of someone else's extraordinary generosity. The report also found givers (at 54%) were more likely than non-givers (at 36%) to say they have received generosity in the past. Proverbs 11:24-25 says, “There is one who scatters, yet increases more; and there is one who withholds more than is right, but it leads to poverty. The generous soul will be made rich, and he who waters will also be watered himself.” Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Thursday, September 22nd, in the year of our Lord 2022. Subscribe by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

On "EWTN News Nightly" tonight: As the nation continues to strive for a new sense of normalcy, the CDC announced updated guidelines for fully vaccinated Americans who are headed outdoors. And after months of delay, the US Census Bureau released its final count of the country's population and, with it, the states that will gain and lose Congressional seats for the next decade. A recent opinion piece says the surge at the US border is tied into the Democrats' push for election reform. Former Attorney General of Virginia and National Chairman of the Election Transparency Initiative, Ken Cuccinelli, explains why the situation at the border is tied into the HR1 and S1 voting bills being pushed by Democrats. Meanwhile, Founder and President of For the Martyrs, Gia Chacon, joins to share her reaction when she heard President Joe Biden recognize the massacre of Armenians under the Ottomans as genocide, making him the first US president to do so. Finally this evening, Cardinal George Pell sits down for an interview with Rome Correspondent, Colm Flynn, about the second volume of his prison diary, about to be released.

This spring, when many of us were unable to attend Mass, we felt the ache for normalcy and the sacraments. Personally, it reminded me that all around the world, millions of Christians are being persecuted for their faith--that the ability to safely attend mass is a privilege I have that so many others don't. Today's guest is Gia Chacon, founder of For The Martyrs. Gia's passion for speaking up for persecuted Christians is truly inspiring and I learned SO much from her about things going on in Iran, Nigeria, and other places around the globe. I hope our episode reminds you of the gift of a persecution-free faith and emboldens you to continue speaking up for your own religious rights.  This episode was brought to you by Gather Together, a new book out from Ave Maria Press.
