In Episode 3 of their June series on pastors who have helped shape their spiritual lives, Greg and Nathan discuss two influential voices whose ministries have deepened their understanding of Scripture and the Christian faith. Greg highlights Mark Dever and his commitment to healthy churches, biblical preaching, and discipleship, while Nathan shares about R. C. Sproul and his profound teaching on the holiness of God, theology, and the authority of Scripture. After providing a brief biography of each pastor, they reflect on what they appreciate most about their ministries and how God has used their teaching to encourage growth, conviction, and a deeper love for Christ. Join us for a thoughtful conversation about faithful ministry and the pastors who have influenced our walk with the Lord.

Mark Scandrette has spent over twenty years wrestling with a hard realization: knowing a lot about God doesn't mean you're good at following Jesus. Dave Kludt spent fifteen years in pastoral ministry learning that everything, down to how you arrange the chairs in a room, forms people. Together they co-teach a Doctor of Ministry cohort at Fuller Seminary built around two words: integral and embodied. Mark is the founder of Reimagine and author of Practicing the Way of Jesus and The Ninefold Path of Jesus, and a longtime friend of the podcast (he first joined us back on episode 112). Dave is the president of Reimagine's board, a former pastor of 15 years, and Mark's partner in this new cohort, a Substack, and an upcoming podcast.IN THIS CONVERSATION:Why "getting more information" doesn't lead to transformation, and what doesWhat Dave means by an "integral" approach to formation, and why it starts with facing the world's fractures honestlyWhat Mark means by "embodied" formation, and the Learning Lab model Reimagine uses to teach by doingWhy the leader of a Learning Lab has to be a participant, not just an expertMoving from a "closed fist" to an "open hand" posture toward your next stepWhy discomfort with failure gets in the way of formation in many churchesHow Mark and Dave use the Enneagram as a formation tool, not a personality quizThe "formation edges" Mark and Dave are each working on right nowMark and Dave's hopes for the Fuller Doctor of Ministry cohort on integral and embodied formationRELEVANT RESOURCES AND LINKS:markscandrette.com — Mark's websitereimagine.org — Mark and Dave's organizationFuller Seminary's Doctor of Ministry programBooks mentioned:Practicing the Way of Jesus, by Mark ScandretteThe Ninefold Path of Jesus, by Mark ScandretteRELATED EPISODES:The Beatitudes and Spiritual Leadership, with Mark ScandretteThe Spiritual Life of a Leader, with Tod BolsingerThe Neuroscience of Spiritual Formation, with Jim WilderSend me a text!

Sanctification Season 2, Episode 9 Gospel Vocabulary In this episode of GraceWalk Radio, Derek and Caleb unpack sanctification, emphasizing that it is not about behavior modification or earning God's favor, but the Spirit-driven outworking of a believer's already-secured salvation. They highlight the crucial order of the gospel—justification comes first, and sanctification flows from it—warning against reversing the two. Rather than striving harder, true sanctification is described as growing in dependence on Christ, even becoming more aware of one's need for grace. Ultimately, the conversation reframes sanctification as a lifelong process of being conformed to the image of Jesus, lived out in community and fueled entirely by God's grace.

I consider our calling to raise our children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, praising my wife for her diligence. I explain why women preaching is a problem with understanding preaching more than understanding men and women. I remember polyster uniforms, concrete bowls and artificial turf from 70s baseball. Finally, why Paul's introductions matter and should not be overlooked.

The Whole Armor of God10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. 14 Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. 16 In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; 17 and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, 18 praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints, 19 and also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++For more information about this group, please visit their website at reformationboise.com.

In today's culture, it's nearly impossible to avoid seeing sexualized images and messages. That means we must diligently protect our hearts. Otherwise, we'll be influenced—we'll be corrupted.   Maybe some of you already sense that your hearts aren't where they should be. If that's the case, then the question becomes “how can my heart be made clean again?” In this episode, Pure Life Ministries Events Manager, Josh Rowand, talks about how today's Christian can not only navigate a sexualized culture, but go deeper with the Lord in the process.   Resources we mentioned: Why You Should Read (Podcast Series) By Pure Life Ministries How to Minister to Christians in Sexual Sin (Seminar for Pastors and Counselors) Out of the Depths of Sexual Sin (The Autobiography of Steve Gallagher) I Dared to Call Him Father: The Miraculous Story of a Muslim Woman's Encounter with God (The Autobiography of Bilquis Sheikh) God's Hostage: A True Story of Persecution, Imprisonment, and Perseverance (Memoir) By Andrew Brunson The Pilgrim Church (Book) By EH Broadbent   Have Any Questions for Us?

How Do We Build a Deeper Relationship with God Through Solitude?Strengthening Faith 2 SolitudeBrian UyedaOriginal Air Date: 2026.06.14We believe The Bible, God's word, is inspired by Him, through the Holy Spirit and is sufficient for everything you need in life – guidance, wisdom, strength, encouragement and HOPE. His word reveals His nature and character and His plan of redemption through His Son Jesus Christ, through whom we can have eternal salvation when we choose to follow Him.

We all sacrifice something for the sake of something else — but what are you willing to give up for the sake of the gospel?

LIVING IN GOD'S SHADOW - BLESSED ROOTS | PART 2“My people will again live under my shade. They will flourish like grain and blossom like grapevines. They will be as fragrant as the wines of Lebanon.”— Hosea 14:7Living in God's shadow means choosing to stay close to Him and allowing His presence to shape every area of our lives, our character, health, family, work, and finances. It is a daily decision to remain near Him, especially during difficult seasons.When we live under God's shadow, we experience the peace, joy, provision, protection, and security that only He can provide. But how do we live under God's shadow?In this message, Pastor Jordan Gash shares five biblical ways we can remain close to God every day and flourish under the influence of His presence.Restore Church | Yorkville, ILSunday Mornings | 10 AMJordan & Melissa Gash, Pastorshttps://www.restorechurchyorkville.com

In this conversation, Josh shares how his church is actively using AI across nearly every department—from sermon preparation and curriculum creation to operations, worship ministry, and discipleship. He offers a practical vision for how church leaders can use AI to reclaim time, reduce burnout, and focus more deeply on shepherding people.   Key Topics   AI in the church: fear vs. opportunity Josh argues that many church leaders are approaching AI with unnecessary fear. While concerns around ethics and implementation are valid, he sees AI primarily as a tool—one that can dramatically increase effectiveness while freeing leaders to focus on ministry. He believes churches that embrace these tools thoughtfully will be able to pastor more effectively, not less.   Why churches are historically slow to adopt technology Churches and nonprofits are often years behind the business world when it comes to adopting new technology. Josh believes AI is creating one of the largest technological shifts of our generation, and many church leaders risk missing opportunities simply because they haven't taken time to understand what's actually possible.   Scaling ministry without losing community One of the most intriguing ideas discussed is whether AI can help churches scale without sacrificing the personal connection that often disappears as organizations grow. Instead of hiring more specialists for every operational challenge, churches may soon be able to use AI systems to maintain consistency, communication, and care at a much larger scale.   AI as a team of specialists Rather than thinking of AI as a chatbot, Josh encourages leaders to think of it as an entire team of specialists available on demand. Administrative support, curriculum development, data analysis, planning, project management, and content creation can all be assisted by AI, allowing pastors to spend more time on teaching, discipleship, and relationships.   The future of church software The conversation explores how tools like Planning Center, HubSpot, Notion, Logos, MultiTracks, and other church software platforms will likely become deeply integrated with AI through technologies like APIs and Model Context Protocol (MCP). Instead of manually moving information between platforms, leaders will increasingly interact with a single AI layer that understands and works across their entire ministry ecosystem.   How Josh uses AI for sermon planning Josh shares his personal workflow for annual sermon planning and weekly sermon preparation. What once required multiple staff meetings and days of planning can now be completed in minutes. He uses AI to help organize ideas, structure teaching series, review theological themes, and accelerate sermon preparation while maintaining full ownership over theological convictions and final content.   Using AI without losing your voice One of the biggest concerns among pastors is whether AI will replace authentic preaching. Josh argues that AI works best as a collaborator rather than a creator. By training AI on previous sermons, theological frameworks, and ministry values, leaders can use it to refine and organize their ideas while still maintaining their unique voice and convictions.   Curriculum creation and discipleship workflows Vineyard uses AI extensively to create small group curriculum, discipleship resources, class materials, slide decks, teacher guides, and parent resources. Tools like NotebookLM help transform existing content into multiple formats, dramatically reducing preparation time while increasing consistency across ministries.   AI-powered worship ministry Worship and production teams are also leveraging AI. Josh and his worship pastor discuss using tools like Suno to create custom music, countdown tracks, and ministry-specific content. They also explore future possibilities for creating custom stems, backing tracks, and other resources that could significantly reduce production workload.   The ethics of AI and transparency Throughout the conversation, Josh emphasizes the importance of transparency. Leaders should be honest about where AI is assisting their work while recognizing that many forms of ministry have always involved collaboration, research assistance, editors, and support staff. The key is maintaining integrity while leveraging powerful new tools.   A leveling of the playing field for small churches Perhaps the most exciting implication is what AI means for under-resourced churches. Pastors who lack staff, consultants, formal training, or large budgets can now access tools that help bridge those gaps. Josh believes AI may become one of the most powerful ministry equalizers the Church has ever seen.   Notable tools mentioned   • Claude • ChatGPT • Gemini • NotebookLM • Planning Center • HubSpot • Notion • Logos Bible Software • Suno • Zapier • MultiTracks • Google Workspace   Key Quote   "Imagine if you could free up 15 hours of your week to spend more time making sure the people in your church who are most forgotten actually get seen."   • • • • •   Disclaimer: This video and description contain affiliate links.

In this episode of the Out of Zion podcast, guest host Shelley Neese sits down with Mark Dreistadt, founder and president of Infinity Concepts, to unpack a wake-up call for the American church. Discover the shocking data behind why 50 percent of American evangelicals no longer believe the Jews are God’s chosen people—and why it is more critical than ever for the church to stand with Israel. From the post-October 7 rise of global antisemitism to the quiet spread of Replacement Theology, Mark challenges pastors, leaders, and everyday believers to find their voice, speak biblical truth boldly, and courageously stand with Israel as an essential part of upholding our shared Judeo-Christian values.

It's Thursday, June 11th, 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 Jonathan Clark Nigerian court sentences Muslims to death for executing Catholics Last week, a court in the African nation of Nigeria sentenced four Muslim men to death for killing dozens of Catholics. Four years ago, the gunmen attacked a Pentecost Sunday service at a Catholic Church in southwest Nigeria. They killed 41 people, including children. Authorities determined that the armed men belonged to Al-Shabaab, an Islamic terrorist group. The massacre was the first terrorist attack on a church in southern Nigeria.   According to Open Doors, Nigeria is the seventh most dangerous country worldwide for Christians. Proverbs 7:14 and 16 says, “Behold, the wicked man conceives evil . . . His mischief returns upon his own head, and on his own skull his violence descends.” Sudanese man arrested in Ireland for attempted beheading Authorities in Northern Ireland arrested a migrant from the African nation of Sudan on Tuesday. Police in Belfast accused him of carrying out a severe knife attack on a man in his 40s. People across the United Kingdom responded to the attempted beheading with protests. The victim was hospitalized with significant injuries to his face, neck, and back. Many U.K. citizens question their government's immigration policies, including Member of Parliament Rupert Lowe. In February, the lawmaker launched a national political party called Restore Britain. The party is devoted to ending mass immigration and also openly recognizes Britain's Christian heritage.  Congress funds $70 billion for ICE and Border Patrol In the United States, President Donald Trump signed the Secure America Act yesterday. The $70 billion package fully funds the Department of Homeland Security. The bill specifically covers U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and U.S. Customs and Border Protection for the rest of President Trump's second term.  Listen to comments from House Speaker Mike Johnson after Congress passed the bill. JOHNSON: “The historic mandate that put President Trump in the White House and Republican majorities in both the House and the Senate is evidence of the fact that Democrats' ‘Defund the Police' agenda is wildly out of step with hardworking American families. After four long years of Democrat policies that opened the door to dangerous criminals and deadly drugs, Republicans are delivering on our promise to restore safe streets and secure our borders.” Inflation rose 4.3% Inflation reached a three-year high last month for American consumers.  The cost of goods and services rose 4.2 percent in May compared to a year ago. Rising energy costs drove the inflation. Gasoline prices were up 40 percent from a year earlier.    iPhone launch connected to lower U.S. fertility rate A new study from the National Bureau of Economic Research suggests that the launch of the iPhone contributed to declining fertility rates in the U.S. Apple introduced the iPhone in 2007. The U.S. general fertility rate has fallen by 22 percent since then. People have been spending more time on their smartphones and less time with each other.  The study noted, “Overall, the diffusion of the iPhone explains 33–52% of the decline in the general fertility rate among women aged 15–44.” Southern Baptists: Only men can serve as pastors The Southern Baptist Convention affirmed its position yesterday that only men can serve as pastors. Over 70 percent of the denomination's representatives voted in favor of the “Truth and Unity Amendment.” The measure was sponsored by Albert Mohler Jr., the president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. The amendment would require churches in the denomination to not appoint women as pastors, elders, or overseers.  Listen to comments from Dr. Mohler. MOHLER: “This motion makes very clear that we affirm the historic Baptist understanding of the pastor, elder, overseer. The structure of the language I have brought goes all the way back to the 1689 Baptist Confession, where the office and function of the pastor are clearly delineated. “This amendment makes very clear that a church, in friendly cooperation with the Southern Baptist Convention, doesn't have anyone other than a man as pastor in the office of pastor and specifies on the functions of the pastor that the key central function of preaching the Word of God to the gathered assembly is limited to men by Scripture.” 1 Timothy 3:1-2 says, “If anyone aspires to the office of overseer, he desires a noble task. Therefore, an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach.”  Animated movie “David” claims #1 spot on Netflix And finally, the animated film David reached the number one spot on Netflix for movies in the United States over the weekend.  The Bible movie from Angel Studios officially premiered on the streaming service just last Wednesday. (audio from David movie trailer) DAVID: “I'm just a shepherd, but deep down I know I can take on the world.” NARRATOR: “There is a darkness over the land.” SAMUEL:  “Our enemies will strike once more.” MAN: “Imagine the biggest warrior you have ever seen!” DAVID: “Okay.” MAN: “Now imagine somebody ate him.” GIRL: “Remember when I told you God had big plans for you?” GOLIATH: “You will serve us!” GIRL: “They may have been bigger than even I thought.” Christian music artist Phil Wickham voiced the adult David in the movie. Wickham told Crosswalk Headlines the film is “full of the story of God and full of Psalms and full of hallelujah and faith and hope.  … I think this movie will last decades. I think it will be something our grandkids watch.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, June 11th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

Unfortunately, pastoral termination is common. Most people think the most common reason is sexual moral failure. Others think it is doctrinal compromise. Neither of those reasons is in the top five. Jess and Thom look at five common reasons most people never consider. The post Five Unusual Reasons Pastors are Let Go (and How to Avoid Them) appeared first on Church Answers.

The barriers to publishing a book have fallen dramatically. Some pastors are publishing books, but more need to do so. Jess and Thom look at the growth of books published by pastors and the reasons why pastors should consider it. The post Five Reasons Pastors Should Consider Publishing a Book appeared first on Church Answers.

Romans 3:21-31 Part 2: The Word of the Day with Rene' Holaday. In this episode, I point out why the modern, world famous Pastors are wrong, primarily Pastor Joseph Prince, being completely wrong about Colossians 2:14, and how his entire teaching is based on his incorrect information! I normally don't point out anyone who's teaching are incorrect, but I have this morning. Come and see why! The TRUTH is important, and that is what this Bible study is all about! This is why we study!

ACTS 1:12-26 - THE APOSTLES - BRIAN SUMNER - 2026"Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day's journey. 13 And when they had entered, they went up into the upper room where they were staying: Peter, James, John, and Andrew; Philip and Thomas; Bartholomew and Matthew; James the son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot; and Judas the son of James. 14 These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers.Matthias Chosen15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples (altogether the number of names was about a hundred and twenty), and said, 16 “Men and brethren, this Scripture had to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who became a guide to those who arrested Jesus; 17 for he was numbered with us and obtained a part in this ministry.”18 (Now this man purchased a field with the [g]wages of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst open in the middle and all his entrails gushed out. 19 And it became known to all those dwelling in Jerusalem; so that field is called in their own language, Akel Dama, that is, Field of Blood.)20 “For it is written in the Book of Psalms:‘Let his dwelling place be desolate,And let no one live in it';and,‘Let another take his office.'21 “Therefore, of these men who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us, 22 beginning from the baptism of John to that day when He was taken up from us, one of these must become a witness with us of His resurrection.”23 And they proposed two: Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias. 24 And they prayed and said, “You, O Lord, who know the hearts of all, show which of these two You have chosen 25 to take part in this ministry and apostleship from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.” 26 And they cast their lots, and the lot fell on Matthias. And he was numbered with the eleven apostles."To support this channel and partner with Brian in Ministryhttps://www.briansumner.net/support/For more on Brianhttp://www.briansumner.nethttps://www.instagram.com/BRIANSUMNER/https://www.facebook.com/BRIANSUMNEROFFICIALTo listen to Brians Podcast, click below.https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...Purchase Brians Marriage book at https://www.amazon.com/Never-Fails-Da...Brian is a full time "Urban Missionary" both locally and internationally with a focus on MISSIONS - MARRIAGES - MINISTRY. Since coming to faith in 2004 doors continued opening locally and internationally to do more and more ministry with a focus on Evangelism, Outreach Missions, Marriage, Counsel, Schools, Festivals, Conferences and the like.  Everything about this ministry is made possible because of people personally partnering through the non profit. God Bless and thank you. †Support the showSUPPORT THE SHOW

Pastors make hundreds of decisions every week, and not all of them deserve the same mental energy. In this episode of the Church Revitalization Podcast, Scott and A.J. walk through four practical categories of decisions that pastors should consider offloading, delegating, or systematizing so that the decisions that truly matter get the attention they deserve. Scott Ball and A.J. Mathieu are church consultants with the Malphurs Group, a ministry dedicated to helping churches move toward health and sustainable growth. Each week on the Church Revitalization Podcast, they bring practical, field-tested insights drawn from years of working directly with pastors and church leadership teams across the country. [3:40] Category 1: Operational and Administrative Decisions — Why routine approvals, purchases, and scheduling items should never land on the pastor's desk [8:08] Category 2: Pastoral Care Decisions — How to triage care needs and build a team so the pastor is not the first and only point of contact [10:59] Category 3: Volunteer and Ministry Team Decisions — Giving volunteers real authority within clear boundaries so leaders stop second-guessing every call [15:04] Category 4: Requests That Should Follow a Written Process — Why benevolence, events, and staff time off need a policy, not a conversation [16:56] Practical Next Step — How to track your decisions this week and identify which ones you should stop making altogether Free 7-Day Trial: https://healthychurchestoolkit.com Episode Article: https://malphursgroup.com/344 Facebook: https://facebook.com/malphursgroup Instagram: https://instagram.com/malphursgroup YouTube: https://youtube.com/themalphursgroup X: https://x.com/malphursgroup

The widow thought she had nothing left but a small jar of oil. Yet what seemed insignificant became the very thing God used to provide abundantly. In this episode, Pastors RJ & Mary Ciaramitaro continue the *Hidden Figures* series by exploring the story of the widow's oil in 2 Kings 4. Through this remarkable account, we learn that God often begins His greatest miracles with our smallest offerings. When we surrender what we have, trust His instructions, and make room for His work, He brings multiplication beyond what we can imagine. Join us as we discover how faith, obedience, and surrender create space for God's provision in every season. **Key Takeaway:** God doesn't need abundance to perform a miracle—He simply asks for our willingness to surrender what we have into His hands.

Send us Fan MailCan women be pastors? It's a question Christians have debated for generations, and one that often sparks strong opinions on both sides. In this episode of Ask A Pastor, Pastor Todd takes an honest, Scripture-centered look at one of the most discussed topics in the Church today.Starting with Pentecost and God's promise to pour out His Spirit on “sons and daughters,” this episode explores what the Bible says about calling, spiritual gifts, leadership, and the role of women in ministry. From Deborah, Miriam, and Huldah in the Old Testament to Priscilla, Phoebe, Anna, and Junia in the New Testament, Pastor Todd examines the many women God used to lead, teach, prophesy, and advance His kingdom.What about the passages that seem to restrict women in ministry? How should we understand Paul's words in 1 Timothy and 1 Corinthians? And what can we learn from the fruit of women who have faithfully served, preached, planted churches, and led others to Christ throughout church history?Whether you agree, disagree, or are still wrestling with the question, this conversation seeks to approach the topic with biblical integrity, humility, and a desire to follow wherever God leads.Join us as we explore what Scripture teaches about calling, gifting, and the work of the Holy Spirit—and ask an important question: If God has called someone, who are we to stand in the way?Support the show

In Episode 2 of our June series on pastors who have influenced our spiritual growth, Greg and Nathan discuss two faithful preachers whose ministries have left a lasting impact on their lives. Greg shares about Alistair Begg and his clear, Christ-centered exposition of Scripture, while Nathan highlights David Platt and his passion for making disciples and calling believers to radical obedience to Christ. After offering a brief biography of each pastor, Greg and Nathan reflect on what they appreciate most about their teaching and how God has used their ministries to encourage, challenge, and strengthen their faith. Join us for another conversation about faithful preaching, spiritual growth, and the pastors who have helped shape our walk with Christ.

It's Tuesday, June 9th, 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 Kevin Swanson and Timothy Reed Vietnamese Communists have imprisoned 57 Christians Religious freedom is tenuous in Vietnam.  That's the subject of a new report by International Christian Concern.   At last count, Vietnam has 57 unreleased religious prisoners, five of whom were subjected to government-initiated torture. Pastors and evangelists are imprisoned for what is called “undermining national unity policy” or “abusing democratic freedoms”, whatever that is.   And Christmas is a dangerous time for Vietnamese Christians. That's when arrests accelerate in the Central Highlands, especially for believers who are caught worshiping in churches unsponsored by the communist government. State Dept. weighs in on the murder of a Brit by a Sikh Tensions between the United States and the United Kingdom have increased over the killing of a Brit named Henry Nowak. Last December, he was killed by a Sikh, a son of an Indian immigrant. The murderer had falsely accused Nowak of a hate crime.  Sadly, the police chose to believe the murderer instead of the victim in the crime.   In response, the U.S. State Department issued a statement pointing out “ideological conditioning and two-tiered policing” as “glaring symptoms of civilizational decline” in the United Kingdom.   Vice President J.D. Vance also stated on social media that “Henry Nowak died the same way a civilization dies: abandoned, handcuffed by authorities who neither trusted nor cared for him, and accused of hate crimes he did not commit.” Countries where the most Evangelicals live The most Evangelicals in the world live in -- you may have never guessed it -- China.    The Joshua Project puts China at the top with 106 million Evangelicals. The United States comes in second with 92 million Evangelicals. Then, comes Nigeria with 64 million, and Brazil with 53 million.   The other nations with the largest Evangelical populations include Ethiopia, Kenya, Mexico, and Uganda. Among the unreached nations of the world with the lowest Christian populations are these European countries: Austria, Finland, Greece, Greenland, Norway, and Sweden. Brazil's surge of Evangelicals and loss of Catholics Brazil has seen a surge of Evangelicals — now at 27%, up from 21.6% in 2010.  Brazil's atheist population grew from 8% to 9.3%. The nation's Roman Catholic population took the hit, losing about 8% since 2010. Catholics now represent only 56.7% of Brazilians. Catholicism made up 99% of the population back in 1890, according to the recently released Census of Traditional Peoples and Communities. New poll: America is viewed negatively America is viewed as increasingly unpopular worldwide while China is receiving higher marks for popular approval. Gallup's recent international poll found America at a 31% level vs. China's 36%.  That's the highest gap in history. America's net approval ratings have always dropped to the lowest levels in the history of the survey -- now at negative 15%. Trump's endorsed candidate for Iowa governor loses 8/10 of a point Iowa conservative Zach Lahn won the nomination for governor in a crowded Iowa GOP primary last week.  Lahn won his primary with just 38% of the vote — a close victory over Trump-endorsed Congressman Randy Feenstra, who earned 37.2% of the vote. Listen to the opening of Lahn's victory speech. LAHN: “I don't have to tell you this, but nobody thought this could be done. We were outspent, opposed by the establishment, told to wait our turn. Well, tonight the people of Iowa had something to say about that. We're not going to wait anymore!” (cheers) Lahn is a sixth generation Iowan who has spoken out against chemical manufacturers and Chinese land ownership here in the United States. Texas Rangers doesn't endorse homosexual pride month The LGBTQ and so-called “Pride Month” fervor has slowed greatly under the Trump administration, but not completely. Sports teams across the nation continue to celebrate Homosexual Pride Month. To their credit, the Texas Rangers are the only team in Major League Baseball to abstain from celebrating perverted lifestyles.  Dodgers pitcher Blake Treinen opposes homosexual pride But some are still standing against homosexuality on a personal level.  Dodgers pitcher Blake Treinen was the only player on his team who did not appear on the field in a homosexual “Pride” hat last Friday, standing by his convictions. The Los Angeles Dodgers organization has been known to openly support homosexuality, transgenderism, and drag.  Influencer Jon Root praises Treinen's actions. He wrote, “While other professed Christians, Dodgers [shortstop] Mookie Betts and manager Dave Roberts wore [homosexual transgender] “pride” hats, only Blake Treinen, [the pitcher], refused. Don't bow down to the idols of our age, Christians. Stand firm like Treinen.” Ephesians 6:13 says, “Therefore, take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”  Send a two-sentence thank you note to Blake Treinen for standing against the homosexual agenda. The address is Los Angeles Dodgers, 1000 Vin Scully Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90012. Trump's $1.7 billion “anti-weaponization” fund shot down President Donald Trump's controversial $1.776 billion “anti-weaponization” fund has been shot down by the courts and those within his own party. Several Republican senators objected to the newly created fund, which would have had taxpayers foot the bill and paid out victims of political persecution while also shielding the Trump family from federal tax review.  June 9th anniversary of Scottish missionary Columba And finally, on this date, June 9th, A.D. 597, the great Irish Christian missionary, Columba, went to be with the Lord. Columba, also known as Columcille, planted churches all over Scotland and established the famed missionary school on the isle of Iona in A.D. 563, a training ground for missionaries over the next several centuries.  Born around the year A.D. 521, Columba was in line to become a High King of Ireland, but chose to serve the Lord in foreign lands instead. Isaiah 52:7 states, “How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who proclaims peace, who brings glad tidings of good things, who proclaims salvation, who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!”  Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, June 9th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

Atonement Season 2, Episode 8 Gospel Vocabulary In this episode of GraceWalk Radio, Derek and Caleb explore the meaning of atonement, describing it as the complete covering and removal of sin through the work of Jesus Christ. Drawing from both Old and New Testament imagery, they contrast the repeated sacrifices of the old covenant with Christ's once-for-all sacrifice that fully cleanses and secures eternal redemption. They emphasize that in Christ, believers are “covered” and seen as righteous before God—not because sin is ignored, but because it was fully dealt with at the cross. Ultimately, the episode highlights the depth of God's grace and the sufficiency of Jesus' finished work: our sin is removed, and in Him, there is no condemnation.

Modern science and God are often framed as opposites, but discoveries in cosmology and physics are raising deeper questions that science alone cannot answer.For decades, many assumed that science and faith were locked in conflict — that the more we understood the universe, the less room there would be for God. But what if the opposite is happening?In this highlight from our conversation (https://youtu.be/IxdXYnamWco?si=qB7yQvXPbQELY0Sn), host Jason Daye sits down with Lee Strobel to explore how modern scientific discovery is not eliminating the need for God, but exposing questions that science itself cannot resolve.As our understanding of the universe expands, so does our awareness of just how precise, ordered, and improbable it all is. From the origin of the universe to the fine-tuning required for life, the deeper we look, the more we encounter realities that resist simple explanation.Together, they explore:Why scientific consensus now affirms that the universe had a beginningHow discoveries in cosmology are reshaping conversations about GodWhat the fine-tuning of physical constants suggests about the nature of realityWhy explanations like the multiverse struggle to fully account for the evidenceHow former skeptics have reconsidered belief in God through scientific inquiryWhat this means for pastors engaging thoughtful, questioning peopleThis episode will serve pastors and ministry leaders who want to engage conversations around faith and science with clarity, humility, and confidence. If you've ever felt the tension between belief and intellect, this conversation will help you navigate that space with greater wisdom and understand how scientific discovery can open new doors for gospel conversations.Looking to dig more deeply into this topic and conversation?

Ephesians10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. 14 Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and shaving put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. 16 In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; 17 and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, 18 praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints, 19 and also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++For more information about this group, please visit their website at reformationboise.com.

Big TakeawaysGod Calls Us Home No matter how far we wander, God lovingly pursues His children and invites them back into relationship with Him. Identity Begins with Christ Lasting peace is not found in self-definition but in discovering who God says we are. Community Matters Deeply Authentic Christian friendships provide a safe place for truth, grace, healing, and spiritual growth. Transformation Takes Time God often works through a process of discipleship, Scripture, prayer, and faithful relationships rather than instant change. No One Is Beyond Hope God's power to restore and redeem is greater than any struggle, addiction, shame, or confusion we face.
