You're winding down for the year?
It's Monday, December 22nd, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Five Iranian Christians sentenced to 10-year prison term Five Iranian Christians were sentenced to an average of 10 years in prison for “propaganda” and “collusion” for practices such as prayer and baptism, and for distributing Bibles and Christian literature, reports International Christian Concern. Matthew 5:10 says, “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven.” Though the verdict was given on October 21, it was not communicated to any of the prisoners until late November and early December. They have been given 20 days to appeal their case before the Revolutionary Court of Tehran. US launches strikes on Syria in response to killing of 2 American soldiers Vengeance struck in Syria Friday as U.S. forces attacked Islamic State targets in retaliation for an attack that killed three Americans last week, reports The Western Journal. A U.S. military official said F-15 and A-10 warplanes, Apache attack helicopters, and HIMARS rockets struck multiple targets, according to the Wall Street Journal. On X, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth wrote, “Earlier today, U.S. forces commenced OPERATION HAWKEYE STRIKE in Syria to eliminate ISIS fighters, infrastructure, and weapons sites in direct response to the attack on U.S. forces that occurred on December 13th in Palmyra, Syria. This is not the beginning of a war — it is a declaration of vengeance.” Hegseth added, “The United States of America, under President Trump's leadership, will never hesitate and never relent to defend our people. As we said directly following the savage attack, if you target Americans — anywhere in the world — you will spend the rest of your brief, anxious life knowing the United States will hunt you, find you, and ruthlessly kill you. Today, we hunted and we killed our enemies. Lots of them. And we will continue.” Netanyahu plans to brief Trump on possible new Iran strikes Israeli officials have grown increasingly concerned that Iran is expanding production of its ballistic missile program, which was damaged by Israeli military strikes earlier this year, reports NBC News. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is preparing to brief President Donald Trump about attacking Iran again. Israeli officials also are concerned that Iran is reconstituting nuclear enrichment sites the U.S. bombed in June. But, they added, the officials view Iran's efforts to rebuild facilities where they produce the ballistic missiles and to repair its crippled air defense systems as more important. RFK Jr calls mutilating “sex-rejecting” trans procedures malpractice Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced Thursday that the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is taking steps to push back against what he described as "sex-rejecting" transgender procedures for minors, reports The Christian Post. During an hour-long press conference, he warned, "So-called 'gender-affirming care' has inflicted lasting physical and psychological damage on vulnerable young people. This is not medicine; it is malpractice." KENNEDY: “We're done with junk science, drive by ideological pursuits, not the wellbeing of children.” Kennedy said the proposed HHS rules, which are subject to a 60-day comment period, would bar hospitals participating in Medicare and Medicaid from performing transgender procedures on children, citing risks of irreversible harm such as infertility, impaired sexual function, bone density loss and altered brain development. He added, "Sex-rejecting procedures are neither safe nor effective treatment for children with gender dysphoria.” Abortions up as abortion pills flourish, Democrat states fund killing babies Last week, the Society of Family Planning released updated abortion data which documented over 591,000 abortions were performed in the first six months of 2025, reports LifeNews.com. This represents a 1.1 percent increase when compared to the first six months of 2024. Two state Medicaid programs have recently started to fund elective surgical abortions. Nevada's Medicaid program began covering elective abortions in mid-December of 2024, and Delaware's Medicaid program started covering elective abortions as of January 1, 2025. Not surprisingly, there has been an uptick in abortions in those states – an increase by 8% in Nevada and 10% in Delaware. However, the main takeaway from this new WeCount data is that the percentage of chemical abortions done via telehealth continues to increase. In the first six months of 2024, just under 20 percent of all abortions were done via telehealth. That figure increased to 27 percent for the first six months of 2025. Telehealth abortions are undermining the strong pro-life laws that many states enacted in the aftermath of the Dobbs decision. Isaiah 59:7 says, “Their feet rush into sin; they are swift to shed innocent blood. They pursue evil schemes; acts of violence mark their ways.” Preventing telehealth abortions needs to be a top priority for the pro-life movement. State attorneys general in Florida and Texas have recently sued the Food and Drug Administration over policy changes regarding chemical abortions. Kirk Cameron's follow-up podcast on annihilationism Kirk Cameron's recent 39-minute podcast in which he supported annihilationism has created quite a bit of controversy. In the opening to a 16-minute follow-up podcast, Cameron said this. CAMERON: “No doubt you've caught wind of the controversy that's swirling around. Let me ask you a question, and I want you to imagine that this question is not coming from me on a podcast, but from someone you love. “What if your son or your daughter looked you in the eye and said, ‘Dad, Mom, I know you believe in hell. I know you believe that God is just. I know you believe that sin is serious. And I know that Jesus is the only way to Heaven. “So, when a unrepentant person, who doesn't turn to Jesus, dies, what does the Bible actually say happens to them? Are they preserved forever and kept alive by God in a place of endless conscious torment, suffering forever, weeping and wailing and gnashing their teeth with no end? “‘Or is the judgment that Scripture describes something different? Is it still real, still just, still severe, but culminating in what the Bible calls death, destruction, or the second death, which is the lake of fire?' “What would your answer be? I'm not asking for what you've always believed or been taught, but what do you believe the Scriptures actually teach? That's the question that my son asked me, and that's the question that started this conversation.” Cameron's support for annihilationism has sparked debate in Evangelical circles. Longtime ministry partner Ray Comfort, founder of Living Waters and co-host with Cameron on The Way of the Master, responded thoughtfully. “While we believe Kirk is sincere, we believe that conditional mortality and annihilationism are erroneous views, and that the Bible's clear teaching on hell is known as eternal conscious torment,” according to GodReports.com. Other voices, including commentators Samuel Sey and theologian Owen Strachan, expressed concern, viewing the shift as departing from historic Christian teaching. Yet some see growing interest in annihilationism as a biblically grounded alternative that reconciles God's love with His judgment.

On today's program, the judicial commission of the Anglican Church in North America has handed down its long-awaited verdict in the months-long trial of Bishop Stewart Ruch. And that verdict is, “Not Guilty.” We'll have details. And, International Servants has been making big claims about its decades of ministry work in Belize—but verifying those claims has proven more difficult. We'll take a look. Plus, Elevation Church—the North Carolina-based megachurch led by Steven Furtick—has announced the launch of Elevation College. But first, St. Andrew's Chapel in Sanford, Florida, has officially voted to leave the Presbyterian Church in America. The church, originally led by Dr. R.C. Sproul, joined the PCA in 2023. It first considered a vote to leave this summer, but delayed the vote while referring the matter to the church's board of elders, also known as its session, to study the situation and return with a recommendation. Its lead pastor, Burk Parsons, was suspended from his role as a teaching elder in the PCA in June after being found guilty by a church judicial commission of three charges related to, among other things, a “domineering” and “intimidating” leadership style, which included accusations of bullying and slander. The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. We get database and other technical support from Stephen DuBarry, Rod Pitzer, and Casey Sudduth. Writers who contributed to today's program include Kim Roberts, Kathryn Post, Jessica Eturralde, and Aaron Earls.

In today's episode of Podcast Growth University, I call out one of the most common reasons podcasters stay stuck while waiting for the right time to press publish. I explain why planning harder rarely creates momentum and why action, repetition, and releasing content are what actually move a show forward. This episode challenges the habits that keep podcasters overthinking and reframes what real progress looks like in the early stages. If you have ideas sitting in drafts, episodes waiting on one more tweak, or plans that never turn into uploads, this conversation will hit close to home. Press play, move first, and let progress meet you in motion.Learn more about:A free 30-minute call with Kevin: https://calendly.com/kevinpalmieri/free-30-minute-podcast-breakthrough-session-with-kevin?month=2025-08Podcast Growth Nation - https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1FyLeJB5H5/If you want to learn more about podcasts, reach out to Kevin:IG: https://www.instagram.com/neverquitkid/Email: Kevin@nextleveluniverse.comNeed help with your podcast?

In this episode, we dive into some thought-provoking topics that could reshape our understanding of the universe. A groundbreaking study introduces the immersion theory, suggesting that Earth-like planets may be far more common than previously believed, thanks to the explosive influence of nearby supernovae. We also explore the Eschtachian hypothesis, which proposes that our first contact with extraterrestrial life might come in the form of a powerful signal from a civilization in distress. Additionally, we highlight an exciting week of record space launches, including China's Long March 12A rocket and South Korea's Hanbit Nano. We celebrate a significant milestone for NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, which has captured its 100,000th image, and we wrap up with the announcement of NASA's Orbit Challenge, inviting college students to innovate for future space exploration.### Timestamps & Stories01:05 – **Story 1: Immersion Theory and Earth-like Planets****Key Facts**- A new study suggests rocky planets may be more common due to supernova explosions.- Estimates indicate that 10-50% of sun-like stars could host planetary systems formed under these conditions.03:20 – **Story 2: The Eschtachian Hypothesis****Key Facts**- Proposed by David Kipping, this theory posits that first contact with aliens may come from a civilization in its final phase.- The idea suggests we may receive a powerful signal as a last testament rather than a friendly communication.05:45 – **Story 3: Record-Breaking Week for Space Launches****Key Facts**- Multiple agencies, including SpaceX and China's space program, are set to launch various missions.- Notable launches include the Ariane 6 for Galileo satellites and Blue Origin's crewed flight.08:00 – **Story 4: Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter Milestone****Key Facts**- NASA's MRO has captured its 100,000th image, chosen by a high school student through the HiWish program.- The landmark photo features stunning mesas and dunes in Syrtis Major.10:15 – **Story 5: NASA's Orbit Challenge for Students****Key Facts**- This new competition invites college students to develop solutions for Earth and deep space exploration.- With a prize pool of up to $380,000, registration is open until February 9, 2026.### Sources & Further Reading1.

Mr. Beast Biography Flash a weekly Biography.In the past few days Jimmy Donaldson, better known as Mr Beast, has been in that rare zone where every move is both a business story and a pop culture moment, and the biggest development is his quiet but very real pivot from superstar creator to would be financial and telecom mogul. At The New York Times DealBook Summit, in an onstage interview now posted on the Times YouTube channel, Donaldson and Beast Industries CEO Jeff Housenbold laid out plans for a new mobile phone service called Beast Mobile, positioned as a creator branded wireless carrier that leans on his more than 450 million YouTube subscribers. Housenbold said the company is also building a MrBeast Financial platform, with a trademark filing describing a banking and crypto enabled app, and he framed it as financial literacy plus access to services rather than just another sponsorship deal, a move that Business Insider reports would make him one of the first major creators to enter consumer finance at this scale. TechCrunch and Entrepreneur both highlight that these products sit inside Beast Industries, the holding company recently valued around 5 billion dollars, with Feastables chocolate still its most profitable line, and Housenbold openly floated the idea of a future IPO so that fans could own a slice of the empire, an idea echoed in coverage by TechCrunch and Unilad as a potential creator led public listing. Those DealBook remarks doubled as a rare long form public appearance, where Donaldson acknowledged that some recent YouTube uploads have not met his own standards and pledged to refocus on “great stories,” even as he juggles Beast Games on Amazon, an animation push, a creator brand marketplace and physical consumer products from toys to snacks. He also addressed the lawsuits from MrBeast Burger partner Virtual Dining Concepts and from a small group of Beast Games contestants; in the Times interview he characterized the show disputes as an inevitable risk when nearly 2,000 people compete, saying some people sue to “try to make money,” while Housenbold insisted the team is learning and that season two, due early next year, will be “a lot better.” There is online speculation, amplified by fan social media and tabloid style sites, that Beast Mobile and MrBeast Financial could evolve into a full scale “MrBeast bank” or that an IPO is imminent, but as of now reputable outlets like Business Insider and TechCrunch report only early stage plans and trademark groundwork rather than a firm launch date or listing timetable.

The Trump administration launched a new governmentwide hiring program Monday aimed at filling technology hiring gaps in federal agencies with workers who will serve in two-year stints. That program, dubbed the U.S. Tech Force, is being spearheaded by the Office of Personnel Management and has buy-in from private-sector tech companies that will serve as partners in the hiring initiative.The first cohort of recruits will be roughly 1,000 individuals who will range from early-career data scientists and engineers to engineering managers from the private sector. According to a release from OPM, their mission will be to accelerate AI adoption in government and fulfill a priority of the Trump administration. On a call with reporters Monday, OPM Director Scott Kupor said the goal of the program isn't to get workers to commit to “a 40-year career in federal government.” While that's welcome, he said, the aim is to “get the benefit of really smart people working on some of the world's most complex and difficult problems” and provide them with an opportunity, if they so choose, to then go work in the private sector. More than two dozen technology companies have already agreed to Tech Force partnerships, including Amazon Web Services, Meta, Microsoft, xAI, Anduril, Nvidia, Oracle, Adobe and ServiceNow. Those companies have not made firm agreements to hire program alumni but can do so in line with their needs, Kupor said. The commitment that OPM has made to those partners, he said, is “to do a great job of recruiting fantastic people.” The White House and Office of Personnel Management shared more details last Wednesday about the effort to transition federal government HR platforms to a single system, outlining a timeline and expectations. In a memo to agency leaders, Office of Management and Budget Director Russell Vought and OPM Director Scott Kupor said the transition portion of the administration's “Federal HR 2.0” project will take place over the next two years, with some agencies coming online earlier than others. Agencies must also stop current projects related to their current systems unless they have an exception. Kupor said in an emailed statement with the memo: “For too long, taxpayers have footed the bill for duplicative HR systems that no modern organization would tolerate. Today's announcement is a major win for efficiency, accountability, and good government.” The memo is the latest action in the Trump administration's push to centralize HR systems as a way of saving money. Per the document, the government currently has more than 100 “core human capital management” systems, and the administration expects that consolidating those systems — as well as HR services — will save billions.
