It's Thursday, May 1st, A.D. 2025. 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 Police attacked Christians in India The All India Christian Council called out officials in Odisha State, India last week for violence against Christians. The council found that police assaulted tribal Christians, attacking women, children, and priests back in March.  International Christian Concern reported a particularly disturbing event. “A 62-year-old woman who had buried her husband just hours earlier was also allegedly beaten up, along with her 17-year-old daughter, while they were in mourning.” The council noted that officials did not take any formal action against the violent police personnel. Proverbs 11:20-21 says, “Those of crooked heart are an abomination to the LORD, but those of blameless ways are His delight. Be assured, an evil person will not go unpunished, but the offspring of the righteous will be delivered.” 47 percent of Germans are religiously unaffiliated A new study found that people who identify with no religion outnumbered Protestants and Catholics in Germany for the first time last year. These religiously unaffiliated make up a shocking 47 percent of the country's population. Catholics represent 24 percent of the population, and Protestants represent 21 percent. Together, Catholics and Protestants lost over one million members last year in Germany. Meanwhile, the number of Muslims in the country increased by 80,000 last year. Supreme Court could allow publicly-funded religious charter school In the United States, the U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments yesterday in a case that could lead to the nation's first publicly-funded religious charter school. Oklahoma's charter school board approved funding for St. Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual School. However, the state's attorney general is challenging the decision. Conservative justices on the high court appeared supportive of the religious charter school. Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters told CBN News what the case is all about. WALTERS: “It's about the freedom to express your religious beliefs without being penalized by the government. And it's about school choice and making sure that parents actually have that power over their kids' education. Avinger, Texas is 74th Sanctuary City for the Unborn Avinger, Texas is the 74th city in the country to become a Sanctuary City for the Unborn. The city council passed the measure in a 3-1 vote on Monday. Avinger resident and former State Representative David Simpson said, “Avinger is blessed to join cities and counties across Texas who are going as far as they can to address the tragedy of abortion, specifically abortion trafficking and the mailing of abortion-inducing drugs.” U.S. economy shrank in first quarter The U.S. economy shrank during the first quarter of this year. The Gross Domestic Product fell 0.3 percent compared to last year. This was the biggest decline since 2022. Economic growth slowed as businesses tried to stock up on imports ahead of President Donald Trump's tariffs. And federal government spending was down 5.1 percent this year. Membership drops again among Southern Baptists Membership declined in the Southern Baptist Convention for the 18th consecutive year in 2024. The U.S. denomination grew from about seven million members in the 1950s to a peak of over 16 million in the mid-2000s. Since then, it has declined to 12.7 million members last year. However, the Southern Baptist Convention baptized 250,000 people last year, a 10 percent jump from 2023.  Kevin Ezell, the president of the North American Mission Board said, “We celebrate every baptism and every new life in Christ. It's encouraging to see these numbers continue to move upward.” Capitol Hill's Bible Reading Marathon And finally, Christians gathered on Capitol Hill to read the entire Bible aloud. The Bible Reading Marathon started Saturday and finished yesterday.  For 90 continuous hours, Christians read from Genesis to Revelation in Washington, D.C. Keith Davidson led the event. He told The Christian Post, “Our goal is to bring attention back to our legislators, of course, and to get the attention back on the word of God. And then for [legislators] to remember that's where our nation's foundation is at, and also, for people who are reading, to let them publicly express their faith.” In an interview on Washington Watch with Tony Perkins, Mike Herbster, Director of Southland Christian Ministries, talked about the power of reading the Bible aloud in the capital of Louisiana, like they did on Capitol Hill. HERBSTER: “We know that the word of God is quick and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword. [Hebrews 4:12] We know that obviously, as the word of God goes forth, the Bible says it will not return void. [Isaiah 55:11] So, even in the public declaration of it out loud to our state, even though not everybody will hear all of it, we know that some will hear some of it.” Deuteronomy 31:10-11 says, “And Moses commanded them, saying: ‘At the end of every seven years … when all Israel comes to appear before the LORD your God … you shall read this law before all Israel in their hearing. Gather the people together, men and women and little ones, and the stranger who is within your gates, that they may hear and that they may learn to fear the LORD your God and carefully observe all the words of this law.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, May 1st, in the year of our Lord 2025. Subscribe for free by Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

Being wise and strategic are needed skills for pastors and leaders, but manipulating people as a means to an end has no place in ministry. Join Dr. D.J. Horton and Kevin Ezell, president of the North American Mission Board, for a conversation on recognizing and battling the sin of struggling for power.

Today on the podcast we are starting a series called Meet Our Heroes. In this series, we will be calling in a few people who have made impacts in our lives and having a conversation with them. We hope you enjoy. Please like and follow.

Kevin Ezell, President of the North American Mission Board preaches from 1 Corinthians 16:5-9 on the importance of seizing open doors for ministry despite opposition, illustrating with biblical examples and personal anecdotes to encourage staying focused on spreading the gospel.

Message from Kevin Ezell on October 29, 2023

Josiah Walker and Bryan Catherman discuss their thoughts on the 2023 Southern Baptist Convention Annual Meeting. What did they think where the high points? What were the low points? The SBC sent 70 missionaries into the world. They also clarified who the Bible says is a Pastor. Why did Kevin Ezell dance around that second question? What about Rick Warren and Saddleback. And oh boy, the messengers changed the Baptist Faith and Messengers (BFM 2000). On this episode of Salty Believer Unscripted they discuss these things and more. Copyright 2023.

TMV: Episode 9 – Fostering and Adoption – Part 1 Adoption and fostering are not about choosing to expand your family but rather responding to God's call to provide a loving home for someone who needs it. With this in mind, a family's perspective on the process of adoption and fostering changes as you switch from a self-centered mindset to one that says “Yes, Lord”, despite the many fears and uncertainties that come with the territory. In this episode, hosts Kira, Kristin, and Jismarie are joined by Lynnette Ezell, mom of six and wife to Kevin Ezell, the president of the North American Mission Board. In addition to serving in ministry for the past 35 years, Lynette and Kevin have raised a beautiful family consisting of three biological and three adopted children, not only cultivating a passion for fostering and adoption in their family but also in their church and community. Lynette opens up about the loss and pain of miscarriage and how, even after they had their biological kids, God started speaking to them about parenting in a different way. She shares with listeners what it was like adopting their first baby, how the family prayed and prepared together, and how it affected the values and norms of their congregation. As listeners will hear, Lynette and Kevin, too, were first inspired by another family who started adopting and made the conscious decision to provide a home for children who had come from brokenness, thereby demonstrating and giving expression to the father heart of God. Join us for this episode as Lynette gives us some insight into how all of us can get involved and support families on this journey! Key Points: Hear about Lynette and Kevin's time in ministry and their hearts for pastoring people. Lynette talks about the trauma and loss associated with recurring miscarriage. Starting the journey of adoption and building their family after having three biological children. Hearing God calling her to mother in a different way and how they prepared as a family. How her three kids responded when they adopted their first baby, a one-year-old Chinese girl. The need for us believers to sometimes take the plunge and do things despite the fear. Get a sense of the challenges Lynette and Kevin faced as a big family and growing church. The mindset that God chooses you as a family to love and be a family for someone else. Learn what happened in their church as a result of their faithfulness to God's calling. The role that seeing adoption modeled played in their own and others' decisions to adopt. The value of having a church community who supports you in your adoption journey. Raising their kids to understand that the Gospel requires us to leave our comfort zones. How their daughters embraced the family's passion for fostering and adoption in their lives. What to expect once you open yourself up to a “Yes, Lord” attitude toward life. Lynette talks about having to let go and let God do with her children's lives what he wills. The importance of prayer, getting the whole family on board, and taking that first step. Why everyone is called to be involved and suggestions for how you can support families. Learn about The Adopting & Fostering Home podcast – an invaluable resource on the topic.
