The FBI “took down” 700 drones during World Cup events Jul 21, 2026

Show notes

An explosive device outside a New York immigration court and the FBI’s interception of hundreds of suspicious drones at World Cup events remind us that unseen threats may be closer than we realize. The same is true spiritually: while our culture assumes all religions lead to the same destination, Scripture declares that salvation is found in Jesus alone. Sharing that truth can feel intimidating, but the Holy Spirit knows the hearts of those around us and can overcome our fear with his power. Today, we consider what it means to live on the other side of Pentecost as “living Christs here and now.”

JD and Usha Vance’s baby boy makes history Jul 20, 2026

Show notes

From the history-making birth of JD Vance’s fourth child to a World Cup victory for Spain and the deaths of American soldiers in the Middle East, the weekend brought news both joyful and tragic. J. R. R. Tolkien coined the word eucatastrophe to describe “the sudden, unexpected turn toward joy that occurs at the darkest moment of a story.” This joy does not erase the sorrow that came before it but passes through it, just as Easter followed the cross. Today, we consider how knowing the end of our story can transform the way we face its darkest chapters.

President Trump cites new data to boost old election claims Jul 17, 2026

Show notes

President Trump used last night’s address to focus largely on election integrity, highlighting declassified information and again calling on the Senate to pass the SAVE America Act. While requiring voter identification and proof of citizenship may seem reasonable, implementing such sweeping changes before November could create significant burdens and errors. The larger lesson extends far beyond elections: the inability to let go of the past can become the greatest hindrance to a successful future. Today, we consider whether we are holding tight to old grievances or opening our hands to whatever God wants to put in their place.

Why “cigarettes are back in vogue” and why it matters Jul 16, 2026

Show notes

Cigarettes seem to be “creeping back to the aspirational center,” appearing again on magazine covers and across TikTok, Reels, and Instagram despite remaining the leading cause of preventable death and disease in the US. No one who smokes a cigarette thinks it will kill them today; the social appeal and addiction are a present-tense allure. The same is true of nearly all temptation: we want what we want now and don’t care if we will one day regret what we choose this day. Today, we consider what it means to admit we are powerless over ourselves and to let Jesus “out of the cage” so he can let us out of ours.

Have scientists created life in the lab? Jul 15, 2026

Show notes

Scientists say they have built a cell from scratch for the first time, creating a synthetic cell that can feed, grow, and replicate like a natural cell. While researchers stress that they have not created life, the breakthrough raises important questions about what this could mean for the future—and whether it should be done at all. As technology continues to outstrip our ethics, from AI to biomedical engineering, we are reminded that our greatest need is not simply scientific advancement but the wisdom only our all-knowing, all-loving Lord can provide. Our future as a nation is tied not only to innovation, but to spiritual awakening.

How to avoid cyclosporiasis Jul 14, 2026

Show notes

A parasitic outbreak of cyclosporiasis spreading across thirty-one states offers practical reminders about washing produce, but it also illustrates a deeper truth: treating symptoms is not the same as identifying their source. The same is true of the cultural chaos surrounding us. Scripture traces our moral illness not merely to society’s institutions or influences, but to the fallen human heart. Because everything we do flows from what we think and desire, guarding our hearts must begin with asking God to transform them.

The sudden deaths of Sen. Lindsey Graham and actor Sam Neill: A reflection on hope and the transforming presence of God Jul 13, 2026

Show notes

The deaths of Senator Lindsey Graham, actor Sam Neill, and dozens of others in tragedies around the world remind us how quickly we move past headlines that fall outside our own “concentric circles of concern.” But God is not limited as we are. He is with us and in us every moment of every day, weeping as we weep and walking with us through the floods, fires, and fears of life. Imagine what today would be like if the all-loving, all-knowing, all-powerful God were truly in charge of it. This and nothing less is what the Christian life is supposed to be.

Hearings for man accused of killing Charlie Kirk end today Jul 10, 2026

Show notes

Today marks ten months since Charlie Kirk was murdered while speaking at an event in Utah. Perhaps it’s fitting then that today also marks the end of the preliminary hearings for Tyler Robinson, the man accused of killing Kirk. Yet conspiracy theories around Kirk’s death continue to proliferate, reminding us that we often seek explanations that feel emotionally satisfying over those that are simply true. As Paul warned, we are prone to gather teachers who suit our own passions and “turn away from listening to the truth.” Explore the evidence presented, why public conspiracy theories still thrive, and how God calls us to a higher standard.

Why Graham Platner’s resignation is relevant to us all Jul 09, 2026

Show notes

Graham Platner suspended his Senate campaign in Maine last night after a series of controversies and allegations brought his past into national scrutiny. His story reminds us of the biblical warning, “Be sure your sin will find you out.” What we do today echoes tomorrow, often in ways we cannot imagine and cannot change. While God will forgive all we confess to him and forget all he forgives, the consequences of our actions often remain. The good news is that “whoever conceals his transgressions will not prosper,” but those who confess and forsake them “will obtain mercy.”

President Trump says ceasefire with Iran is over Jul 08, 2026

Show notes

President Trump said this morning that he believes his ceasefire deal with Iran is over, the latest development in a conflict that has been going on for months with no apparent end. While we may not feel personally connected to the ninety-three million people living in Iran or those threatened by Iranian aggression in the region, the good news is that God does not feel the same way. The Lord who knows when a sparrow falls and has numbered the hairs on every head has present-tense compassion for every single member of the human race. One day, perhaps today, we will need the compassion of a loving God in ways the rest of the world may not know.
