It's Thursday, February 12th, 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 Olympics can prompt prayer among Christian viewers (Audio of Olympic theme song) Over 3,500 athletes from 93 countries are competing at the 2026 Winter Olympics Games in Milan, Italy this month. Fourteen of these countries are on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most oppressive places to be a Christian. Those countries include Eritrea, Nigeria, Pakistan, Iran, India, and China.  Open Doors has a message for Christian viewers of the Olympics. They said, “Use the Olympics in a potentially surprising way: to pray.  … Take a moment to think about the situation of your brothers and sisters in that country and pray for it.” You can reference the organization's prayer guide for each country through a link in our transcript today at TheWorldview.com.  Ephesians 6:18 says, “Pray at all times in the Spirit with every prayer and request, and stay alert with all perseverance and intercession for all the saints.” Canadian gunman killed 10 people at school Tragically, a transgender shooter opened fire at a Canadian school on Tuesday, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Jesse Strang, a 17-year-old male pretending to be a female while wearing a dress, reportedly killed 10 people including himself.  He also injured 25 people. It's Canada's deadliest school shooting in decades.   The shooting took place at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School in northeastern British Columbia which has fewer than 200 students enrolled in Grades 7 through 12. Chris Elston, a Canadian pro-family activist, said, “He was a young man who needed serious help for his mental health. Instead, his delusion was affirmed, and the result is murdered innocent children.” Later, Elston added, “Someone needed to tell this kid the truth and help him to be happy as a man, but it's illegal to do so. It's a criminal offense of conversion therapy. So, he never got help and he got worse. Murdered children paid the price for our politicians' stupidity and cowardice. Not even our police can call him a man. A cult has taken over our society. “ Please pray for the families suffering through this unimaginable loss. YouVersion Bible engagement up dramatically in Latin America Online Bible platforms are seeing unprecedented engagement in Latin America so far this year. This trend marks a year since the YouVersion Bible platform established a regional office in Mexico City. On January 1, nearly two million people subscribed to Bible reading plans. And the app saw over 22.2 million active users on the first Sunday of the year. This marks a 20% growth from last year. Countries with record levels of engagement include Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, and El Salvador.   Only 31% o Protestants read Bible daily In the United States, new analysis from Lifeway Research found most Protestant churchgoers don't read the Bible on a daily basis. Seventeen percent of churchgoers read the Bible at least monthly. Fourteen percent read weekly. Thirty percent read a few times a week. And only 31% read the Bible daily. However, the percentage of churchgoers who read the Bible daily or at least a few times a week is now 61%. That's up from 36% in 2007. Romans 12:2 reminds us, “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” GOP to FDA: Abortion Kill Pill is hurting women U.S. Senate Republicans criticized the Food and Drug Administration on Tuesday after a closed-door briefing on the abortion kill pill. The FDA is supposed to be conducting a safety review of mifepristone, one of the drugs used in chemical abortions. Republicans are accusing the agency of dragging its feet on the study. Listen to comments from Republican Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri in an interview on Washington Watch with Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council. HAWLEY: “Tony. I just think, at this point, this study, it's vital. It should be done. I don't have any confidence that the FDA is actually going to do it. And, in the meantime, abortions in this country are increasing. There are more abortions now than when Roe was the law of the land. And that's because of this chemical abortion.” U.S. homicides down 20% The Major Cities Chiefs Association released its latest report on violent crime in the U.S. The report collects data from 67 of America's biggest police departments. Compared to 2024, reported homicides were down nearly 20% last year. And reported violent crimes are falling after a surge of reports during the COVID-era shutdowns. 130,000 new American jobs The United States added 130,000 jobs in January, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Analysts expected only 55,000 jobs. It's the biggest job growth in over a year. The gains were led by healthcare, social assistance, and construction.  The unemployment rate remained slightly elevated at 4.3%. 92% of Americans like religious themes in movies & TV And finally, a new survey found most Americans are open to religious themes in movies and TV shows. The 2026 Faith & Entertainment Index found 92% of U.S. adults say faith has a role to play in modern entertainment. And 77% believe it can have broad appeal. Brooke Zaugg, executive director of the Faith & Media Initiative, said, “Religion can feel scary to talk about — like politics — so it creates the illusion that it's a small group. That makes it easy for filmmakers to oversimplify it or not give it much thought, instead of recognizing how valuable faith storytelling can be when it's done well.”  Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, February 12th, in the year of our Lord 2026. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

Have you ever had a “what if” person… and you can't tell if it's God's timing or an emotional trap?In this episode, a listener writes in about a seven-year friendship that keeps circling back into something deeper. They've never kissed, she's been abstinent for five years, and now — for the first time — their timing finally aligns to explore a relationship. But she's torn: he's warm, patient, and makes her feel safe… yet she's afraid she's been living more in fantasy than reality.They're long-distance, both navigating ADHD, and she's trying to rebuild her faith while also wanting a partner who can lead spiritually — without performing faith just to keep her. So the real question becomes: is love and safety enough to take the risk, or is this a distraction that could derail her growth?We talk about how to move forward with wisdom, how to check your “sober mind” when you're already emotionally invested, and why you can't keep someone in your life as a permanent what-if.✨ What You'll Hear Izzy's letter to Glen after Sydney's passing (bring tissues)Release Rest Remain update + the YouVersion Bible reading planListener email: the long-distance “what if” friendship turning seriousADHD, consistency, and what love looks like in real lifeFaith alignment, spiritual leadership, and moving with a sober mindWhy “love is a risk” — and how to take it wiselyParenting + marriage questions: balance, devotionals, and real-life routines

Christmas activities across generations, plus the story behind the YouVersion Bible app, and overcoming the fear of a better option. Featured musical artist: Covenant Worship Roundtable: How My Family Celebrates Christmas Does your family have Christmas traditions that are non-negotiable? Maybe a special dish or dessert someone makes, a movie you watch every year, or a church service you attend together. Passing traditions down through generations makes the holiday season extra special, so our guests get nostalgic in sharing their own traditions and why they choose to prioritize them in the midst of everything else they could be doing.

In this special bonus episode of How to Study the Bible, author and podcaster Carol McLeod joins Nicole to talk about falling in love with Scripture, walking with the Holy Spirit, and staying faithful in every season. From early-morning verse memory at her kitchen table, to decades of quiet service before writing her twentieth book, Carol reminds us that small beginnings matter. “His presence is all the preparation you need.” She shares a striking insight from Mark 5/Luke 8—linking a 12-year illness and a 12-year-old girl—and offers a tender word for anyone hurting this Christmas: Jesus came to carry your griefs. "Christmas is especially for you if you’re hurting; Jesus came to carry your griefs.” What We Discuss: Model > mandate: Carol fell in love with Scripture because her dad lived it and invited her into his early-morning Bible time with intentional verse memory. Start small & be faithful: Ministry often begins with a handful of people—dorm devos, a living-room group—long before books and microphones. His presence prepares us: You can plan, but ultimately “His presence is all the preparation you need” when you teach or serve. A double 12: A fresh reading of Mark 5/Luke 8 (woman hemorrhaging 12 years; Jairus’ daughter aged 12) calls us to care for both women with wounds and the next generation of girls who need Jesus. Christmas is for the brokenhearted: Christ came not only to bear our sins but also to carry our griefs—especially good news for a hard holiday season. Bible Verse References (linked) Lamentations 3:22–23 — His mercies are new every morning. Mark 5:21–43 / Luke 8:40–56 — Jairus’ daughter & the woman with the issue of blood (“Talitha koum”). Isaiah 53:4 — He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows. Want More? Subscribe to How to Study the Bible and leave a rating/review to help others find the show.

It's Wednesday, October 29th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Indian authorities arrest 3 Christians for outreach to Hindus Last week, authorities in northern India arrested three Christians, including a pastor, for conducting an evangelistic outreach to Hindus. The arrests were made in the state of Uttar Pradesh under its anti-conversion law. This comes just days after India's top court criticized the state's use of the law to target Christians.  Such anti-conversions laws are used throughout India to persecute Christians. Believers face the harshest treatment in Uttar Pradesh.  India is ranked 11th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most difficult countries to be a Christian.  Trump oversaw Cambodia-Thailand Peace Deal U.S. President Donald Trump is visiting countries in Asia this week. On Sunday, he oversaw the signing of a peace agreement between Cambodia and Thailand. He also signed trade deals with both countries as well as Malaysia.  Listen to comments from President Trump on that Cambodia-Thailand peace deal.  TRUMP: “Today's signing represents just one of eight conflicts that we've ended in eight months of the Trump presidency. I'm very honored to have done it. We saved millions of lives. “I'm here in a mission of friendship and goodwill and to deepen our ties and commerce, to strengthen our common security, and to really promote strongly, stability, prosperity and peace for all of the countries in this room and long beyond this room.” Yesterday, President Trump visited Japan, signing a trade deal with their newly elected Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi. The president also plans on meeting Chinese President Xi Jinping in South Korea today.  Samaritan's Purse airlifted 100,000 pounds of food/supplies to Gaza Samaritan's Purse airlifted over 100,000 pounds of food and relief supplies for families in Gaza on Saturday.  This marks the 13th flight to the Middle East by the international Christian relief organization. The latest airlift includes 290,000 food packets, 12,000 blankets, and 12,000 solar lights.  Listen to comments from Franklin Graham, president and CEO of Samaritan's Purse.  GRAHAM: “This has been a terrible war that's taken place, but Samaritan's Purse is going and we're going to go in Jesus' name. We've been helping the people in Israel. We've been helping the people in Gaza, and we're going to continue to help.” Hebrews 13:16 says, “Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.” Yelp spanked for vilifying pro-life pregnancy centers In the United States, a federal appeals court ruled against Yelp, Inc. in a pro-life case. Yelp operates a platform that connects people with local businesses. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is suing the company for placing misleading information on listings for pro-life pregnancy centers.  In a press release, Paxton said, “Yelp tried to play politics and steer users away from pro-life resources, but being based in the criminal-loving state of California will not shield them from accountability. I will continue to defend pro-life organizations that serve Texans and make sure that women and families are receiving accurate information about our state's resources.” Pew Research: 59% of Americans like influence of religion on society Pew Research reports a sharp rise in the share of U.S. adults who say religion is gaining influence in American life over the last year. The study also shows that more Americans express a positive view of religion's role in society.  The survey found 59% of U.S. adults say religion has a good influence on American life, up from 49% in 2022. Twenty percent have a negative view of religion's influence, down from 26% in 2022. And 21% have a neutral or unclear view of religion's influence, down from 25% in 2022. Fifty-eight percent of Americans also believe their religious views are at odds with mainstream culture, up from 42% in 2020. YouVersion Bible app celebrates one billion downloads And finally, the Bible app, YouVersion, is celebrating one billion downloads.  The Bible app began in 2008 as one of the first 200 mobile phone apps. It saw over 80,000 downloads in the first week. Now, YouVersion is available in thousands of languages and has been downloaded hundreds of millions of times around the world.  YouVersion is celebrating the power of the Bible next month with a 30-day Bible reading challenge. Bobby Gruenewald, the founder and CEO of YouVersion, stated, “We're seeing incredible global momentum around Bible engagement . . . Every day we hear stories of lives being changed—someone overcoming addiction, marriages being restored, and people encountering Scripture in their own language for the first time. This milestone is really a celebration of the Bible itself.” In Isaiah 45:22-23, God said, “Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the Earth! For I am God, and there is no other. By Myself, I have sworn; from My mouth has gone out in righteousness a word that shall not return: ‘To Me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear allegiance.'” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, October 29th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

1 Timothy 4 SummaryPaul warns that some will abandon the faith, following deceptive teachings. Timothy is urged to stay true to sound doctrine, train himself in godliness, and be an example in speech, conduct, love, faith, and purity. Paul instructs Timothy not to neglect his spiritual gifts, to devote himself to public reading of Scripture and teaching, and to persevere so he may save both himself and his hearers.Your words were found and I ate them

2 Kings 21 Summary2 Kings 21 recounts the reigns of Manasseh and Amon, kings of Judah.Manasseh:Manasseh becomes king at age 12 and rules for 55 years in Jerusalem. Unlike his father Hezekiah, Manasseh does evil in God's sight—he rebuilds pagan altars, worships idols, and even puts idol altars in the temple. He leads Judah astray, practicing sorcery and shedding much innocent blood. God declares through prophets that, because of Manasseh's sins, terrible judgment will come upon Jerusalem and Judah; they will be wiped out like a dish turned upside down.Amon:After Manasseh dies, his son Amon becomes king. He rules for two years, also doing evil and worshiping idols like his father. He is assassinated by his own officials, and then the people kill those assassins and make Amon's son Josiah king.Thus, this chapter marks a period of great evil in Judah, setting the stage for coming judgment.Your words were found and I ate them

2 Kings 19 SummaryIn 2 Kings 19, King Hezekiah responds to the threats from the Assyrian king, Sennacherib. Distressed by the enemy's blasphemous messages, Hezekiah seeks advice from the prophet Isaiah, asking for God's help. Isaiah assures Hezekiah that God will defend Judah and that Sennacherib will not succeed.Sennacherib sends another threatening letter, so Hezekiah goes to the temple and prays for deliverance, acknowledging God's power and asking Him to save Jerusalem so that all nations will know He is the true God.God answers through Isaiah, declaring that He has heard Hezekiah's prayer and will protect Jerusalem. Isaiah prophesies that Sennacherib will return to his country and die by the sword. That night, an angel kills 185,000 Assyrian soldiers, forcing Sennacherib to retreat to Nineveh. Later, Sennacherib is killed by his own sons, fulfilling God's prophecy. Through these events, God demonstrates His power and sovereignty, delivering Judah from destruction.Your words were found and I ate them

This week, we were challenged to see generosity not as an obligation, but as the heartbeat of God's greatest work—both globally and here at Northeast. We were reminded through Jesus' parable in Luke 12 and the story of the YouVersion Bible app, that true wealth is not measured by what we store up, but by the richness of our relationship with God and our willingness to invest in His Kingdom. For nearly 50 years, Northeast has seen God move through ordinary people who gave sacrificially, building a community where God's grace is free and lives are transformed. Now, we're stepping into the next 10 years with bold faith—planting new churches, expanding outreach, and creating spaces to serve a growing community. The challenge is big, but God's call is clear: give, grow, and go. Like Bartimaeus, let's cry out, “Lord, don't pass me by!” Let's be the generation that invests in eternity, trusting God to multiply our efforts for the sake of future generations.
