It's Wednesday, August 26th, 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 Somalian Muslims attack mother of 8 for trusting Christ Muslim extremists in Somalia, Africa attacked a mother of eight for converting from Islam to Christianity. Sophia Ibrahim came to Christ in April 2022. Several Muslim men beat her unconscious after they found her attending a Bible study this month. She was discharged from the hospital last week.  Ibrahim told Morning Star News, “I will continue serving [God] and making others know Him because of the everlasting life and the joy of knowing Christ.”   Somalia is ranked second on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most dangerous countries worldwide to be a Christian.  In Philippians 3:8, the Apostle Paul wrote, “Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ.” Bible app expands footprint into Latin America The Bible app YouVersion is expanding its presence in Latin America. YouVersion leaders met in Mexico City last week to partner with churches and ministries. Among Latin American countries, Mexico and Colombia have some of the highest levels of Bible app usage. YouVersion CEO Bobby Gruenewald told Christian Daily International, “It took us 17 years to reach the first 1 billion devices. We believe the next billion will come in the next five years. There is a hunger for the Word of God at a global level.”   2 Timothy 3:16 says, “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness.” Update on Trump's border wall The Trump administration is continuing to build the wall on the U.S.-Mexico border. The New American reported, “According to data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, as of mid-August 2026, about 365 miles of primary border wall, 58 miles of replacement border wall, and 423 miles of secondary border wall either are now under construction or have been completed since U.S. President Donald Trump took office in January 2025.” The Trump administration is seeking to build or finish 1,200 new miles of wall, as well as hundreds more miles of vehicle barriers and replacement wall. Funding for the continued border project mostly comes from Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act, passed in 2025. President Trump rejected trans ideology and affirmed parental rights President Donald Trump addressed education at the White House on Monday as many students return to school this week.  The president specifically called out transgender ideology in schools. Listen. TRUMP: “Every public school in America is now on notice that if they tell a child that they are trapped in the wrong body, they are committing child abuse. … “Under the Trump administration, we're systematically ending every single one of these radical Left betrayals, and we're putting the parents back in charge. They're the ones that love our children. They're the ones that should be in charge.” (applause) Alliance Defending Freedom advances religious liberty in 250 bills Alliance Defending Freedom is helping to advance religious liberty through over 250 state and federal bills this year. These measures support core God-given freedoms. Dozens have already become law. The organization said it provided “legal analysis, bill review, and guidance on laws that curb radical gender ideology, end institutional censorship, and help secure parental rights.” 570th anniversary of Gutenberg Bible And finally, this week in history is commemorated as the anniversary of the Gutenberg Bible. It is named after Johannes Gutenberg, a German inventor and printer. The earliest date appearing on a copy of the completed Gutenberg Bible is August 24, 1456 – 570 years ago. This Bible represented the first work printed in Europe with moveable type. The new printing press would become invaluable for the Protestant Reformation of the 16th century. It allowed teachers like Martin Luther to easily spread their writings on the Bible. Isaiah 52:7 says, “How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news of happiness, who publishes salvation, who says to Zion, ‘Your God reigns.'” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, August 26th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

Becklo explains why Catholics can affirm the importance of the truths emphasized by the Reformers while rejecting the idea that they must stand alone or in opposition to other dimensions of Christian faith. His central theme is that Catholicism holds together realities that can mistakenly be treated as either/or choices.Support the show: https://www.sacredheartradio.com/donate-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The sermon examines the profound historical turning points initiated by the Protestant Reformation and the subsequent rise of Puritanism in England. It highlights key theological shifts, including the restoration of scriptural authority over church tradition and the redefinition of vocation that elevated secular labor as a divine calling. The preacher discusses how these religious changes influenced broader societal developments such as the growth of capitalism, literacy, and concepts of liberty of conscience. Attention then turns to the English Reformation's political complexities under Henry VIII and Elizabeth I, leading to the Puritan movement's desire to purify the Church of England. Finally, the narrative traces the legacy of Puritanism through its impact on British non-conformity, the Westminster Standards, and its foundational role in shaping religious heritage in North America.

The sermon examines Psalm 119:75 to define true saving faith through the theological concepts of knowing, believing, and trusting. Drawing from the Protestant Reformation, it distinguishes mere intellectual assent from genuine reliance on God's word during times of affliction. The preacher argues that while demons may know and believe in God, only believers who trust Him demonstrate living faith. By referencing Hebrews 11, the message emphasizes that authentic faith requires personal trust in God even when circumstances are difficult or unseen. The conclusion challenges listeners to move beyond easy believism and cultivate a deep, trusting relationship with the Lord.

In 1534, Michelangelo was called back to Rome to complete his final work inside the Sistine Chapel for the altar wall, his Last Judgement. In the decades between his painting of the ceiling and his return, Rome was subject to two major historical events: the start of the Protestant Reformation and the 1527 Sack of Rome. This episode looks at the Last Judgement as a product of this new historical shift in Renaissance Rome. We also look at the critics of the work, both locally from Biagio da Cesena, and from far off Venice from the infamous Scourge of Princes, Pietro Aretino, in order to understand how society responded to Michelangelo's work in the most holy chapel in all of Catholicism. Follow/Support/Learn: https://linktr.ee/italian_renaissance_podcastWorks Discussed: Michelangelo, Last Judgement, 1535-41 https://www.museivaticani.va/content/museivaticani/en/collezioni/musei/cappella-sistina/giudizio-universale.htmlThe Florentine Renaissance CourseSupport the show

The sermon examines the profound impact of Pope Innocent III and the Fourth Lateran Council on medieval Christianity, highlighting key doctrinal developments such as transubstantiation and the mandatory annual confession for all believers. It details the formalization of the seven sacraments and the condemnation of heretical groups like the Waldensians and Albigensians, alongside the expansion of monastic orders like the Franciscans and Dominicans. The narrative further explores Innocent's authorization of crusades, including the controversial Fourth Crusade against Constantinople and the violent campaign against the Albigensians. Finally, the discussion transitions to Martin Luther's 95 Theses, identifying the abuse of indulgences as a primary catalyst for the Protestant Reformation and the subsequent shift toward the authority of Scripture alone.

I am not much for throwing out Latin terms. Long ago I took Latin and was not very good at it, but sometimes an old term just needs to be used, and if we don't know it, we just need to. Sola Gratia is the name of a new series we are starting this week and will run for the next five weeks. Sola Gratia means grace alone. It was one of five solas that came out of the Protestant Reformation—like battle cries, or things we hold dear and must never forget, or we will lose something that must not be lost.If you have been around here for a while, it will sound familiar to you, because it is one of our four core values—"Grace is Everything." It's not just a core value; it is, we might say, the core value which makes all our other values possible. Grace alone is what the gospel is all about. For the next five weeks we will look at the gospel and ask the question, "Why is grace everything?"Sunday we will look at what we might call a biblical anthropology, or who we are as human beings before God—what is our essence as image bearers of God, and how has sin affected us. It is a bleak picture, and one in which, if we do not understand it, grace will just be something, not everything.I hope you will join us Sunday!

Full Text of Readings Friday of the Eighteenth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 411 The Saint of the day is Saint Cajetan Saint Cajetan's Story Like most of us, Saint Cajetan seemed headed for an “ordinary” life—first as a lawyer, then as a priest engaged in the work of the Roman Curia. Saint Cajetan's life took a characteristic turn when he joined the Oratory of Divine Love in Rome, a group devoted to piety and charity, shortly after his ordination at 36. When he was 42 he founded a hospital for incurables at Venice. At Vicenza, he joined a “disreputable” religious community that consisted only of men of the lowest stations of life—and was roundly censured by his friends, who thought his action was a reflection on his family. He sought out the sick and poor of the town and served them. The greatest need of the time was the reformation of a Church that was “sick in head and members.” Cajetan and three friends decided that the best road to reformation lay in reviving the spirit and zeal of the clergy. Together they founded a congregation known as the Theatines—from Teate [Chieti] where their first superior-bishop had his see. One of the friends later became Pope Paul IV. They managed to escape to Venice after their house in Rome was wrecked when Emperor Charles V's troops sacked Rome in 1527. The Theatines were outstanding among the Catholic reform movements that took shape before the Protestant Reformation. Cajetan founded a monte de pieta—“mountain or fund of piety”—in Naples, one of many charitable, nonprofit credit organizations that lent money on the security of pawned objects. The purpose was to help the poor and protect them against usurers. Saint Cajetan's little organization ultimately became the Bank of Naples, with great changes in policy. Reflection If Vatican II had been summarily stopped after its first session in 1962, many Catholics would have felt that a great blow had been dealt to the growth of the Church. Saint Cajetan had the same feeling about the Council of Trent, held from 1545 to 1563. But as he said, God is the same in Naples as in Venice, with or without Trent or Vatican II. We open ourselves to God's power in whatever circumstances we find ourselves, and God's will is done. God's standards of success differ from ours.Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Framing Roman Catholicism as our theological parent in the Christian family tree, they explore how a system built on human merit, sacraments, and tradition can subtly turn faith into a tollbooth or a self-funded spiritual insurance policy. Together, Phil and Matt discuss the core contrasts of the Protestant Reformation, specifically Sola Scriptura (Scripture alone) and salvation by grace alone through faith alone. Drawing from Phil's childhood friendship with a local priest named Father Michael, they highlight the vital need to hold deep conviction without losing the humble, loving posture of Jesus.

From the Protestant Reformation to modern church movements, you'll discover why divisions have occurred, when they have been necessary, and when they've been fueled by pride, preference, or tradition rather than biblical conviction.More importantly, this conversation points us back to Scripture's vision for the Church: one body united under one Lord. While denominations can preserve important biblical convictions and strengthen ministry, our highest allegiance must never be to a denomination—it must always be to Jesus Christ.In this episode, you'll learn:Why denominations exist and how they developedThe difference between essential Christian doctrines and secondary issuesWhat the Bible teaches about unity, humility, and truthHow Christians can hold strong convictions without hostilityWhy our unity is one of the world's clearest pictures of the gospelWhether you've wondered why churches differ on baptism, spiritual gifts, church government, or worship styles—or you've struggled with division among Christians—this episode offers a biblical perspective on pursuing both truth and unity.As Psalm 133:1 reminds us, "Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity."

Send us Fan MailA doctrine can look like a small detail until you realize it can reshape an entire faith. We dig into why the Eucharist and transubstantiation became a historical fault line, why the Mass sat at the center of Reformation conflict, and why some Protestants saw it as a direct challenge to Christ's once-for-all sacrifice. Along the way we bring church history into view, from Rome's collapse to the idea of an emerging religious empire, and we ask what happens when spiritual authority gets fused to an institution that claims to represent Christ on earth. We also tackle the loaded word antichrist with more care than the usual headlines. Instead of treating it like a single end-times cartoon villain, we walk through how the Bible uses the term, how it intersects with Paul's “man of sin” in 2 Thessalonians 2, and why we argue antichrist can be both systemic and personal, showing up wherever self rises against God. That leads straight into the papacy, the title vicar of Christ, and the question of what it means to “stand in the temple” when the church itself is described as God's temple. A guest brings a thoughtful Old Testament question from Zechariah 11:17 about the “idle shepherd,” and we model something we all need more of: honest study that admits what we don't know yet. From there we press the case for serious Bible study that includes the prophets, patterns, and symbolism of the Old Testament as the foundation for understanding Revelation and the New Testament, with a side trip into why Esther can reveal God's providence without ever naming Him. If you care about Protestant Reformation history, Eucharist theology, end-times interpretation, and how to read the whole Bible with clarity, you'll find plenty to wrestle with here.

The Righteousness of God Revealed in the Gospel Hosted by Dave Jenkins Episode Summary In this episode of Anchored in the Word with Dave, Dave Jenkins explains Romans 1:16–17 and the righteousness of God revealed in the gospel. The gospel is not helpful advice, moral improvement, or religious self-help. It is the power of God for salvation because it reveals how sinners can be made right with a holy God through Jesus Christ alone. Dave unpacks the meaning of the righteousness of God, justification by faith alone, the importance of Habakkuk 2:4, and why Romans 1:16–17 became so central to the Protestant Reformation. He also explains how this truth helps Christians rest in Christ rather than their own performance. Listen Watch Key Scriptures Romans 1:16–17 Habakkuk 2:4 2 Corinthians 5:21 Philippians 3:9 Galatians 2:16 Episode Highlights Why Romans 1:16–17 is central to Paul's message in Romans What Paul means by “the righteousness of God” How the gospel reveals God's justice and grace Why sinners cannot achieve righteousness through personal effort How believers are justified by faith alone in Christ alone Why this doctrine became central to the Protestant Reformation How Christians can rest in Christ rather than their own performance The Gospel and the Righteousness of Christ Romans 1:16–17 teaches that the gospel is the power of God for salvation because it reveals the righteousness of God. This righteousness refers both to God's holy character and to the righteousness He provides through Jesus Christ alone. Believers are not justified because of their works, achievements, morality, or self-improvement. They are declared righteous before God because the righteousness of Christ is credited to them through faith. This is the heart of justification by faith alone in Christ alone. Reflection Question Are you trusting in your own righteousness, or are you resting completely in the righteousness of Christ? The gospel does not reveal how sinners earn righteousness. It reveals how God provides righteousness through Jesus Christ alone.

After visiting Rome and exploring its churches, basilicas, religious art, and historic Christian sites, I came away with five important observations about Roman Catholicism, Protestantism, and the state of Christianity in Rome today.In this video, I examine the continued role of indulgences in Roman Catholic theology and practice, the prominence of Mary in Catholic devotion, and the way many of Rome's churches can feel more like museums than places of Christian worship. I also consider whether Rome is truly as Christian as it appears and why the theological issues raised during the Protestant Reformation still matter for Christians today.At the same time, Rome possesses a remarkably rich Christian history. From the witness of the early church to the legacy of Christian art, architecture, martyrs, and theologians, Rome remains an important place for understanding church history. The goal of this video is not simply to criticize, but to evaluate what I observed through the lens of Scripture and the gospel. What do you think?

We then follow the Papacy's gradual recovery of prestige -- through the reactionary rigorism of Pius IX and the 1st Vatican Council; the creation of Catholic social teaching and the intervention of the Church in the class struggle between capital and labor under Leo XIII; and the dramatic reforms of the Second Vatican Council in the 1960s. We consider the controversies and scandals of the modern church relating to fascism, the Nazi Holocaust, the Vatican Bank, and the suppression of Liberation Theology, and finally, examine the recent shakeup of the Vatican under Pope Francis, the momentous implications of the Synod on Synodality, and the clues presaging a new political assertiveness of the Church under the first American pope, Leo XIV.
