It's Friday, June 19th, A.D. 2026. 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 Chinese police raid church during Sunday worship On June 14th, Communist authorities in southwestern China launched a large-scale raid against Early Rain Covenant Church at 11:00am during its Sunday worship service. They detained dozens of believers, reports ChinaAid. The church's worship service, which included families and children, was being held in a hotel conference room in Jiangyou City. The raid was conducted by 65 Communists including police officers, SWAT personnel, Domestic Security Protection Unit officers, religious affairs officials, and local government reps. They “stormed the venue and forcibly took control of the gathering." Church leaders said 33 believers were detained during the operation, including two elders, Yan Hong and Wu Wuqing. Please pray for the detained elders and frightened children and that their faith would overcome their fear. Psalm 27:3 says, “Though an army encamps against me, my heart shall not fear.” Vance To Israel: "Wake up" if you think Trump is your biggest problem On June 12th, President Donald Trump called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with news he did not want to hear: Trump expected to sign a deal with Iran within days, reported Axios. Trump said, "This is the deal. It's a great deal, and it's time to end this war.” Four months out from an election, Netanyahu's rivals are accusing him of making Israel a "vassal state" by simply accepting Trump's terms for peace. Asked about rumblings from Netanyahu's advisors about the US-Iran peace deal, Vice President J.D. Vance spoke directly on June 18th in the White House Briefing Room, reports RealClearPolitics.com. VANCE: “You have seen people within Bibi's cabinet who have come out and attacked the deal, and in some ways very personally attacked the President of the United States. My message to them would be two-fold. “Number one: Donald J. Trump is the only head of state in the entire world who is sympathetic to the nation of Israel at this moment in time. And he happens to be the head of state of the world's superpower. If I was in the cabinet of the Israeli government, I might not be attacking the only powerful ally that I have anywhere left in the entire world. “The second message I would give to some of those cabinet members in Israel, who are attacking the President of the United States, is that over the last three months, two-thirds of the defensive weapons that have protected your homeland have been built by American hands and paid for by American tax dollars. “The problem for Israel is not Donald J. Trump! Anybody in Israel who thinks their biggest problem is the President of the United States needs to wake up and smell the reality of the situation that country is in. Bibi, to his credit, has not gone down this path.” California town initially approved drag queen at kids playground And finally, Christians in Oakdale, California were livid. And with good reason. The foolish Oakdale City Council, in this city of 24,000 people 100 miles outside San Francisco, initially approved a drag queen to emcee and entertain at a homosexual/transgender “pride” event to be held at Dorada children's park, playground, and swimming pool. It was set to take place on the Lord's Day, Sunday, June 28th between 10:00am and 2:00pm -- complete with yard games, face painting, and food. Pastor Jeff Cavanaugh of Calvary Chapel Oakdale was interviewed by the local ABC affiliate. CAVANAUGH: “We wouldn't have children in a strip club, and to me it's just very similar to that. I just don't think children should be exposed to that.” And Dan Phipps, an elder at Mountain View Church in Oakdale, alerted his congregation during the service. PHIPPS: “They're seeking to hold a ‘pride' event involving adult preferences for sexuality at a kids park. But it gets worse than that. This adult event, at a children's park, is scheduled to have a drag performer as entertainment. This drag performer publicly posts what most would consider explicit content on their social media accounts publicly for everybody to see their intentions. “To me, it couldn't be more clear. They're targeting our kids. They're planning on exposing children to the perversions and brokenness of this world, and they're parading sinful lifestyles before young and impressionable minds here in Oakdale.” Phipps urged the congregation to attend the June 15th Oakdale City Council meeting to speak out. PHIPPS: “Obviously, we're concerned about this. We want to invite you guys to join the [Mountain View Church] leadership at this event, attending the meeting. Demonstrate that there are many people in Oakdale who do not want these types of events promoted to children, seeking to attract children into a lifestyle that is contrary to God and His design.” The drag queen, who goes by the stage name “Sasha Devaroe,” is David Allen Soria Jr., a homosexual man who is faux married to another man named Larry. He was also interviewed by the Oakdale ABC affiliate. SORIA: “It's fear mongering. It's trying to put us back in the closet.” Soria thought having such an event in Oakdale was important. SORIA: “A small city like Oakdale can have something like this for community members who may be can't make it to San Francisco.” Sadly, despite the fact that hundreds of citizens showed up, including many Christians, the Oakdale City Council limited the number of speakers to just ten people. Listen to the comments from one of the Christians. CHRISTIAN MAN #1: “These predators are no longer satisfied behind closed doors, but demand their sexual perversions be consumed and normalized here in Oakdale. Notice where they want to hold this sexual event: in public, at our most popular children's park, next to the plunge pool, active with kids. “Keep in mind, this movement is responsible for the sterilization and mutilation of children, and is now openly targeting ours. They advertise on social media their groomers' desire to hug, play games with, and face paint girls and boys at the park. “The heritage of our town is under attack, and the very heart and soul of our Cowboy Capital of the World is at stake. We call upon you, our elected representatives, to uphold the traditions of conservative, family-friendly Oakdale that our cattlemen established.” (You can watch that section of the Oakdale City Council between 9:18 and 44:36 in this video). The final citizen at the podium did not pull any punches. CHRISTIAN MAN #2: “I just want to let you know that everybody here will stand at the throne [of God] and give an account for what they have and haven't done.” Romans 14:12 says, "So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God." To their credit, on June 18th, the Oakdale City Council announced a venue change from the public kids' park to an indoor, taxpayer-funded venue known as the Bianchi Community Center. You can send a thank you note to Oakdale Mayor Cherilyn Bairos at cbairos@oakdaleca.gov, telling her you appreciate the venue change which will better protect innocent children. The address is 280 N. Third Avenue, Oakdale, CA 95361. Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, June 19th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

For more than a year, a seven-foot creature with glowing red eyes and folded wings terrorized Point Pleasant, West Virginia—and just weeks after the sightings stopped, the Silver Bridge collapsed and killed 46 people, leaving the town to wonder whether the Mothman had been a monster, a warning, or something far worse.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources and full transcript): https://weirddarkness.com/RedEyesOfMothmanREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode:https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2p8s2fxtFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Most everyone is familiar with the King James Bible, but did you know that King James also wrote a book on demonology during the witch hunts and trials? (The King James Book of Demonology) *** Her gravestone, decorated with a cross and flowers, reads “Jerrilynn S. Mullins — Beloved wife and best friend.” It could also be added, “a victim of a crime that will likely never be solved.” (The Unsolved Mystery of Jerrilyn Mullins) *** It was on November 15th 1966 that Point Pleasant, West Virginia had its first experience with what later became known as the Mothman. Many believe it was either the cause of a horrific bridge collapse, or perhaps a harbinger of the doom that was soon to come. The mystery remains to this day – as do some of the eerie happenings in the area.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: November 15, 2021This episode of Weird Darkness, hosted by Darren Marlar, moves from a winged cryptid haunting a West Virginia river town to a Georgia teenager found dead inside a rolled wrestling mat, a Minnesota newlywed who vanished from a restaurant parking lot, and a king of England who wrote a manual on demons.It opens with the Mothman, first reported on November 15, 1966, when two young married couples driving past an abandoned World War II TNT plant near Point Pleasant, West Virginia, spotted a six- or seven-foot gray figure with folded wings and glowing red eyes that rose into the air and pursued their car down Highway 62 at over 100 miles per hour. That same night, contractor Newell Partridge of Salem watched his television fill with a strange pattern before his dog Bandit chased two red eyes toward the hay barn and disappeared forever, and the next day Roger Scarberry described passing a large dog's body near the city limits that was gone minutes later. Over the following year roughly 100 people, including Marcella Bennett, reported the creature alongside UFO sightings and men in black, and on December 15, 1967, the 700-foot Silver Bridge linking Point Pleasant to Ohio collapsed during rush hour and killed 46 people, cementing the belief that the Mothman had been a harbinger of the disaster.From there the episode turns to Kendrick Johnson, the 17-year-old three-sport athlete found dead on January 11, 2013, stuffed head-down inside a rolled wrestling mat in the old gym at Lowndes High School in Valdosta, Georgia. Investigators ruled the death an accidental positional asphyxia, theorizing the boy fell in reaching for a shoe, but his 19-inch shoulders could not fit through the mat's 14-inch opening, an hour of footage from all four gym cameras was missing and altered, and his organs were found removed and replaced with newspaper. A second and third autopsy revealed blunt force trauma to his neck and right chest, a fabricated confession recording sold to his family for $1,000 was exposed as a hoax by Sheriff Ashley Paulk, and the case, which once entangled FBI agent Randy Bell's sons Brandon and Brian Bell, was officially reopened on March 10, 2021.Vanishing from a restaurant parking lot is what happened next to Jerrilyn Mullins, a 28-year-old Oakdale, Minnesota, newlywed who left the dinner table at a Chi Chi's in Richfield around 9:00 p.m. on November 15, 1978, and was last seen by her husband's coworker Patrick Melbourne, who said he drove her 22 miles back to a Howard Johnson's and left her there. Her decomposed body surfaced in a Lake Elmo swamp on June 30, 1979, identified through dental records and jewelry, with two autopsies unable to determine a cause of death though her stomach contents placed her killing within an hour of leaving the restaurant. Melbourne, who carried a long record of sexual assault allegations and was later convicted of crimes against a 10-year-old girl, remained the prime suspect; husband Ron Mullins lost a 1989 wrongful-death civil suit for lack of evidence, and the Washington County case stayed unsolved when Melbourne died in 2015.The episode closes with King James VI and I, who returned from a 1589 trip to Denmark obsessed with witchcraft and published Daemonologie in 1597, the only treatise of its kind written by a reigning monarch. In its pages he catalogued the signs of demonic possession, describing superhuman strength exceeding six men, iron-hard skin that could not be pierced, and victims speaking languages they never learned, while arguing that demons inhabit the corpses of the pious and that only prayer and fasting, not Catholic ritual, could repel them. He acknowledged werewolves as men suffering an excess of melancholy rather than cursed creatures, dismissed fairies as illusions sent by the Devil, fixed the ratio of female to male witches at 20 to 1 by reasoning that women were more easily deceived as Eve had been, and produced a work that fueled the European and colonial witch hunts and shaped the weird sisters of William Shakespeare's Macbeth.

Oakdale Cemetery in Wilmington, North Carolina is another one of these cemeteries that is an outdoor museum. The level of trees also makes this an arboretum. Several years ago, I went on the Wilmington Ghost Walk and while doing that, I heard a story about a haunted building with a sad yet heartwarming story about a dog and his owner. The tour guide informed us that there was a special burial in their honor at Oakdale Cemetery and I decided that I had to check it out. What I found was an amazing and unique cemetery.
