What happened this day in news? What were the hot topics of concern? Robert Krout reports on the National Day of Prayer. Island attacks, fighting on Okinawa, New Guinea, and…

Thursday, May 22, is the National Day of Prayer and Remembrance for Mariners and People of the Sea including U.S. Sailors, Marines, and Coast Guardsmen. In this episode of Catholic Military Life, we learn more from Sister Joanna Okereke, HHCJ, National Director of Stella Maris, the maritime apostolate of the Catholic Church.

Gospel-based singer Robert Robinson has been gathering accolades for decades. He's noted for such events as singing at Prince's Birthday Bash and being featured at the National Day of Prayer in Washington DC. Robert inspires and entertains, and he records and works with choirs as well. Recently, Robert sat down with Phil Nusbaum to talk about his songs and his mission.

The most consequential church-state case of this Supreme Court term involves whether the government could – or even must – fund religious charter schools. Amanda and Holly examine key moments in the oral arguments from Oklahoma Statewide Charter School Board, et al. v. Drummond, playing clips from the courtroom and looking at how the justices may apply recent precedent to shape future law. As BJC noted in the brief we filed, if the government funds religious charter schools, it will drag our government deeper into questions it is unfit to answer on matters of doctrine and church composition. That's not government neutrality toward religion – that's religious preference repackaged as educational choice.   SHOW NOTESSegment 1 (starting at 01:53): Developments since our previous show Amanda and Holly talked about the Catholic Charities/Wisconsin case in episode 12: Back to SCOTUS: Regular business in disturbing times We released our episode with Melissa Rogers to coincide with the first 100 days of the Trump administration. It is episode 13 of season 6: Active citizenship: A conversation with Melissa Rogers about promoting religious freedom and the common good President Donald Trump issued a proclamation on the National Day of Prayer and he signed an executive order on the same day establishing the Religious Liberty Commission.  The American Bar Association has a website page dedicated to National Law Day You can click this link to read President Donald Trump's proclamation on “Loyalty Day and Law Day.” The Respecting Religion podcast won a 2025 “Best in Class” award from the Religion Communicators Council's DeRose-Hinkhouse Awards for our episode titled: “But … is it Christian nationalism?” from season 5.   Segment 2 (starting at 09:51): Oral arguments in Oklahoma Statewide Charter School Board, et al. v. Drummond Holly mentioned this article from The Washington Post by Justin Jouvenal and Laura Meckler that provides an overview of the case: How religious public schools went from a long shot to the Supreme Court Holly and Amanda discussed these cases as they worked their way through the courts in episode 16 of season 5: The trouble with *religious* charter schools BJC filed an amicus brief in Oklahoma v. Drummond, along with other Christian organizations as well as Jewish, Muslim and interfaith groups. Click here to read our brief. We played four clips in this segment from the oral arguments in Oklahoma v. Drummond. You can visit the Supreme Court's website for a transcript of the arguments and an audio recording of the arguments.  Clip #1: Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson & Solicitor General John Sauer Clip #2: Chief Justice John Roberts  Clip #3: Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson  Clip #4: Justice Elena Kagan & Michael McGinley Amanda and Holly mentioned three decisions authored by Chief Justice John Roberts that developed a new way of understanding the Free Exercise Clause. They are:  Trinity Lutheran v. Comer (2017) Espinoza v. Montana Dept. of Revenue (2020) Carson v. Makin (2022) Holly's 2017 column on the Trinity Lutheran decision is titled “Decidedly narrow, deeply troubling.”   Segment 3 (starting 37:12): What do we expect? We played one clip from the oral argument in this segment: The opening statement of Greg Garre, who argued the case for the attorney general of Oklahoma.

Why is National Single Payer organizing a National Day of Action on May 31 amid cuts and freezes to public health programs? How has an incremental approach to universal health care in America made comprehensive healthcare reform more difficult? To find out, we recently talked to Dr. Ana Malinow, who spent three decades working as a pediatrician with immigrant, refugee and underserved children before retiring as clinical professor of Pediatrics from UC San Francisco School of Medicine. The past president of Physicians for a National Health Program, she is on the steering committee of National Single Payer. She's also a lead organizer for The Movement to End Privatization of Medicare. This is the first episode in a two-part series.

On this episode, we take you to the heart of Washington, D.C., where faith and public life intersect during the National Day of Prayer. It's a powerful reminder of America's Christian heritage and our nation's need for divine guidance. Pastor Rob Pacienza of Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church—who also leads the Center for Christian Statesmanship—joins the national conversation, urging believers to actively engage in politics and culture. We'll explore how the gospel speaks into every corner of public life and why prayer remains a vital force in shaping our nation's future.

On May 31, a large coalition of labor and community groups is holding a nationwide day of action to demand a national single payer healthcare system. Clearing the FOG speaks with Kay Tillow, an organizer of the action and member of the leading organization, NationalSinglePayer.com. Tillow speaks about the current healthcare crisis in the United States and why it is imperative that people organize now for a solution, such as national improved Medicare for all. Tillow critiques the Medicare for All legislation that was recently introduced in both houses of Congress and what we need to do to move the bills forward.

As I write this column, on the day of National Day of Prayer, many warm thoughts come to mind. Throughout the country, many students will be graduating from schools of learning this month. Graduation is both a happy and a sad occasion. The diploma a symbol of excellence in knowledge, is the inheritance of our youth. I am reminded of what a big, gray haired, soft spoken Professor Greek once stated as he handed out the diplomas. He said, "Young ladies and gentlemen, it is not possible for everyone to have a great intellect, but it is possible for everyone to have a great heart." Over a quarter of a century ago, I read an essay written by an unknown author entitled, "Two Easy Questions," which I feel I would like to share with you, my dear readers of this warm thoughts column: "It was graduation day, and as a teacher, I sat before the speaker's lectern. "Here we go again," I amused, "another boring, unimaginative, uninteresting speech." But how very wrong I was. The speaker merely said that he had two easy questions that he hoped each graduate could answer for himself in the affirmative. If any student had to give a negative answer to one or both questions, he stressed, then that person was in deep trouble. He asked the graduates, "Do you have the ability to love? Do you have the capacity to receive love?" I was moved. So was the entire audience. He went on, "There is an identification crisis in America. People don't know who they are or where they are going. They have no purpose. They are frustrated, and hate swells within them. If we don't love ourselves, how can we possibly love someone else? Hate blunts and stunts sensitivities and sensibilities. People attempt to erase this frustration and hate by eating too much, drinking too much and smoking too much. It takes people to help people become people. If we give love, we will receive love, but to love, we must love our bodies and chasten our emotions. We must not gallop and gulp, rather, we must pause to savor and sip. We all know that love is not physical, but our spiritual and mental and emotional complexities are so entwined with the physical that we must fight hard to make ourselves physically disposed to love. Love the bodies and chasten the emotions. In a world full of lonely persons, isn't it a tragedy for anyone to be lonely, alone?" Some time has passed since that commencement speaker, bless him, hurled those two questions at his audience...but they continue to echo and re-echo in my mind. He did, however, give us a clue, a rule to live by: we must find love ourselves. Very well, I'll begin there. I'll love myself. I'll educate myself, discipline myself, and think noble thoughts. What's more, I'll even try to make myself more lovable. It is possible for everyone to have a big heart. May the inspiration of wisdom and hope for the future be with our graduates in their journey through life.

We have some good state/church news to report out of Oklahoma and Arizona. Then, in response to Trump's remarks at the May 1 "National Day of Prayer," we celebrate the May 4 "National Day of Reason" by hearing impassioned and humorous remarks at the Second Annual "Reason Reception" in D.C., sponsored by FFRF, American Humanist Association and the Secular Coalition for America, for the Congressional Freethought Caucus. The "Very Funny Lady" comedian Leighann Lord kicked off the event, followed by U.S. Reps. Jared Huffman, Calif., Jamie Raskin, Md., Laura Friedman, Calif., and a poignant keynote by former Rep. Susan Wild, Pa.

During the National Day of Prayer ceremony in the Rose Garden, President Trump signed an executive order creating the Presidential Commission on Religious Freedom. Our President and CEO, Kelly Shackelford, has been appointed to serve on the Commission. To give you a better understanding of the Commission, Kelly sat down with Stuart Shepard to discuss the appointment and to let you know what you can expect from those serving at the President's request.

This week on CodeWACK! Single payer is back in the spotlight with Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Pramila Jayapal submitting new Medicare for All bills for 2025-26! How will the upcoming National Day of Action on May 31st keep the need for healthcare reform in the spotlight? And how do physicians feel about single payer today, 60 years after the American Medical Association's infamous ‘stealth campaign' against socialized medicine (featuring none other than Ronald Reagan)? To find out, we recently talked to Dr. Ana Malinow, who spent three decades working as a pediatrician with immigrant, refugee and underserved children before retiring as clinical professor of Pediatrics from UC San Francisco School of Medicine. The past president of Physicians for a National Health Program, she is on the steering committee of National Single Payer. She's also a lead organizer for The Movement to End Privatization of Medicare.

Pastor Daryl Crouch of Everyone's Wilson responds to a question from a listener about bi-vocational pastors in Africa and looks how in some ways pastors in the US may be overly professionalized.  In reality, we're all bi-vocational.  He also talks about Mother's Day. Kerry Hasenbalg, author of "The Way of Becoming," shares about the pain being a mom after a miscarriage, and about standing in hope in the midst of life's chaos.  Her poem "I Will Stand" became a theme song for this year's National Day of Prayer.   Faith Radio podcasts are made possible by your support.

In this week's episode of Shoulder to Shoulder, Doug and Pesach reconnect while Doug is in the heart of Washington, D.C. for a jam-packed week of advocacy and prayer. Doug shares his firsthand reflections from the National Day of Prayer events, the Israel Embassy gathering, and Israel Advocacy Day on Capitol Hill. But that's just the beginning. The conversation shifts to the pressing situation in Gaza, where Doug and Pesach tackle the question few are willing to ask: What is the endgame? With Israel gaining confidence in not just defending itself by conquering and occupying Gaza.  Is the world ready for an Israel that no longer plays defense? Should Israel become more comfortable with a permanent presence in Gaza? Doug and Pesach don't hold back as they explore the deeper implications of a shifting Middle East and what it means for Jews, Christians, and freedom-loving people everywhere. This episode is a powerful blend of current events, theological insight, and bold questions. You won't want to miss it.

In this National Day of Prayer message, Pastor Allen Jackson reminds us that prayer is not just a request list, but a powerful response to God's presence, authority, and faithfulness. Drawing from Scripture and real-world examples, Pastor Allen urges us to become people of prayer—anchored in humility, repentance, and hope. He provides several proclamations and prayers to use on our own and with others on the National Day of Prayer and beyond. When we respond to God, He will begin to shape our lives—and that will impact the future of our families and our nation.   To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world, visit this link: allenjackson.com/podcastdonate

On this National Day of Prayer, Pastor Jared calls us into a lifestyle of prayer and intercession. Surveying the scriptures and the sermons of some fathers in the faith, we will see that one of the most important things you could do with your life is to pray. As Oswald Chambers says, "Prayer does not fit us for the greater work; prayer is the greater work." We pray you are blessed, encouraged, and revived as you listen to this message.

President Trump's commitment to bringing religion back to the White House was on full display as Dr. Phil endorsed him on the National Day of Prayer. Filling in for Glenn, Pat and Jeffy weigh in on Tulsi Gabbard's appearance on “The Megyn Kelly Show,” where she discussed finally proving the origin of COVID-19. Pat notes that the U.S. sent endless aid to Ukraine with little oversight under former President Joe Biden, and the guys are stunned that some Ukrainians still accuse America of exploitation. White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller warned that allowing gender transitions for kids without parental consent is child abuse and a violation of parental rights. Pat and Jeffy review shocking footage of a police stop where the driver had done everything wrong. The Left will have you believe Trump is losing the trade war with China, but the facts tell otherwise. Lastly, the guys praise President Trump's latest move to officially defund NPR and PBS.

The face of the American military is undergoing a much need transformation. On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week we spoke to a woman who has been tracking the downward slide of the U.S. military on all fronts for several years. She joined us to share how the removal of DEI and creating a higher standard for so-called “tip of the spear” units is creating a healthy, more robust armed forces. Many of the people who toil in the Lord’s fields go unnoticed by the majority of us and are glad to do so. We had the privilege to hear the story of one such woman whose work in bible translation has transformed the work of missions around the world. Her diligent labor has opened doors for hundreds of people to hear the Word of God in their native tongue. We spent some quality time with our favorite missionary to the entertainment world as she shared how her ministry would be celebrating the National Day of Prayer and how high-quality bible-based films and television series are finding new and enthusiastic audiences. The discovery of the Dead Sea scrolls continues to impact our understanding of ancient times. We shared the amazing story of the “lost cave” and what was discovered in it and importance of these documents to our knowledge about biblical history. For many of us the most challenging relationship with have is not with the people we meet but the food that we eat. A highly respected family therapist and friend to this program joined us to put a biblical perspective to our relationship with food, dieting and whether or not we should use today’s most popular weight loss drugs. One of our favorite bible teachers rolled up his sleeves once again and tackled some of your most challenging questions about the bible and the Christian life. As we wind down another week, we turn our focus to the never-ending cycle of news in the marketplace of ideas and encourage you to join us as we dissect it under the disinfecting sunlight of God’s unchanging truth.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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.

Today, on Karl and Crew, we celebrated the National Day of Prayer by discussing the importance of prayer. Prayer is an intimate time of communion and conversation with the Lord, and as Christ followers, we should be actively praying. Do you have an active prayer life? We turned to Matthew 6:5-14, which provides us with some guidelines on how to pray properly. We also heard from our listeners about how God answered their prayers. We then had Dr. Ronnie Floyd join us to discuss the purpose of the National Day of Prayer. Dr. Floyd was the former National Day of Prayer Task Force president and is now a speaker, author, and encourager. He is dedicated to helping others, committed to the next generation, and empowering leaders. He is also the host of the weekly podcast, For Leaders Podcast with Ronnie Floyd.

Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Gwinnett police searching for suspect after woman found dead in Snellville area home Gwinnett County police are searching for a suspect after a woman was found dead in her Snellville home late Tuesday in what appears to be a domestic dispute. A juvenile called 911, reporting an argument between a man and woman. Officers arrived to find the woman deceased, while the suspect had fled on foot. The juveniles in the home were unharmed and unrelated to the victim or suspect. Police believe the incident was isolated, involving individuals who knew each other. Anyone with information is urged to contact detectives or Crime Stoppers for a potential cash reward. STORY 2: Discovery High football team takes part in Family Promise bed races to help make a community impact Discovery High’s football team, led by Coach Roy Groshek, is fostering a positive culture by engaging in community events ahead of spring practice starting May 1. The Titans participated in a pep rally at a local elementary school and the 14th annual Bed Race in Lawrenceville, benefiting Family Promise of Gwinnett, which raised $36,000 to combat homelessness. The team finished second in the youth division, with Principal Robert Maffeo steering their bed. Groshek emphasized the importance of community involvement and rewarding players who excel academically and athletically. Spring practice culminates in a scrimmage on May 15 at Seckinger. STORY 3: Lilburn and Norcross homestead exemption bills awaiting decision from governor Lilburn and Norcross residents await Gov. Brian Kemp’s decision on two bills, House Bill 761 and House Bill 772, which could lead to referendums this fall on new or increased homestead tax exemptions. HB 761 proposes a $5,000 exemption for Lilburn homeowners and $10,000 for those 65 and older, while HB 772 would codify Norcross’s escalating senior exemptions, raising the maximum from $45,000 to $90,000 for homeowners aged 65+. Separate school tax exemption bills for Gwinnett County are also under review, with a countywide referendum set for May 2026. These measures aim to provide tailored local tax relief amidst rising property valuations. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info.

The Lawrenceville Lawn is located at 210 Luckie Street, Lawrenceville. STORY 5: Duluth police still on the lookout for runaway goat Duluth police are on the hunt for a runaway goat that’s been evading capture for over a week. Spotted in backyards and even running down Peachtree Industrial Boulevard, the elusive billy has outmaneuvered officers multiple times, earning comparisons to a "huffin' Houdini." Police suspect it might be the same goat recently loose in Suwanee but can’t confirm. Residents are urged to call Gwinnett County Animal Control at 770-339-3200 if they spot the goat, rather than attempting to catch it themselves.
