Israel Set To Block Gaza-Bound Flotilla Led by Greta Thunberg and European Activists

(Worthy Insights) – The Israeli military is preparing to intercept a Gaza-bound ship carrying pro-Palestinian activists, including Swedish climate campaigner Greta Thunberg, before it can reach Israeli territorial waters. The vessel, named Madleen, is part of a mission organized by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition and is currently sailing under a UK flag. The group departed from Sicily with humanitarian supplies and a stated goal of challenging Israel’s blockade of Gaza.

The flotilla includes 12 activists from several countries, including members with French, Swedish, German, and Brazilian citizenship, as well as European Parliament member Rima Hassan, who previously attempted to enter Israel but was deported. The participants claim their voyage aims to deliver humanitarian aid and protest what they describe as Israel’s “illegal, decades-long blockade” and “ongoing genocide” in Gaza. Onboard are baby formula, medical equipment, water filtration devices, and children’s prosthetics. [ Source (Read More…) ]

American Jihadists Target Pro-Israel Summit in Texas, Forcing Shutdown

(Worthy Insights) – One of the largest pro-Israel events planned for 2025 has been indefinitely postponed, after escalating terror threats left organizers without a secure venue just days before it was set to begin.

The Israel Summit — expected to draw more than 1,000 attendees from across the U.S. and via livestream has become the latest casualty of rising hostility toward public support for Israel in the United States.

This year’s speaker lineup included Israeli Knesset members, former U.S. Ambassador David Friedman, former members of Congress, prominent media figures, rabbis, IDF veterans, and survivors of the October 7th Hamas massacre. [ Source (Read More…) ]

Christian Camp That Led Thousands to Christ Faces Legal Battle to Uphold Biblical Beliefs on Gender

(Worthy Insights) – Camp IdRaHaJe, which is taken from the song “I’d Rather Have Jesus,” is celebrating 77 years of introducing young campers to the Lord during weeklong forays to the foothills of Bailey, Colorado.

The new state policy requires camps to allow biological boys in girls’ showers, dressing rooms, and dormitories; the same is true for biological girls who, under the new rule, are welcome in boys’ facilities.

IdRaHaJe leaders believe so much in the power of God and camp ministry to change lives that they’ve asked the Colorado agency that regulates resident camps for an exemption. Their request was denied. [ Source (Read More…) ]

What Is Messianic Judaism? Understanding the Faith of a Murdered Israeli Diplomat

(Worthy Insights) – Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim were murdered last month in Washington, DC, by a gunman who was allegedly targeting Jews and Zionists.

But in the days following the heinous attack, new details emerged that added complexity to an already heartbreaking story. Lischinsky, who worked at the Israeli Embassy, was not a typical Jewish diplomat. He was a member of a Messianic Jewish congregation in Jerusalem—a community that is both controversial and unique, blending Jewish identity with a belief in Jesus as the Messiah.

Lischinsky and Milgrim, his girlfriend, were reportedly preparing to travel to Israel the following week to get engaged. Friends and family say the couple was deeply in love and committed to a life together, both personally and spiritually. [ Source (Read More…) ]

Op-Ed: God Has a Plan for Gen-Z – The Path to Revival

(Worthy Insights) – There is a generation rising — one whose impact will not merely echo through cultural movements or social media platforms but will resound through eternity itself. This generation is not an accident of history; they are a prophetic fulfillment, a people destined to usher in the greatest move of God the Earth has ever seen. They are the harbingers of revival, the wave that will crash against the gates of darkness, preparing the way for the return of Jesus Christ.

This generation — Generation Z — is uniquely positioned by God, not to echo the past but to declare a new song of redemption and restoration. They are the generation of the final letter before completion, the ones through whom God will awaken the sleeping Church, call forth the prodigals, and ignite a global revival that will shake nations. They will not merely witness the move of God; they will be the move of God. They will stand in the gap between generations, carrying the torch of faith, wielding the sword of truth, and preparing the Bride for the glorious return of the King. [ Source (Read More…) ]

‘600 Days That We Fight for Our Lives’: Israel Marks a Milestone of Pain and Prayer

(Worthy Insights) – Six hundred days since his son, Itay Chen, was abducted by Hamas forces, Ruby Chen’s message to the crowd at the Knesset auditorium was personal, not political. “I’m standing here as a father,” Chen said.

He explained that his family had chosen not to hold a shiva—the traditional Jewish week of mourning—despite being told by Israeli intelligence that Itay was killed on the day he was abducted from his tank on the Gaza border. “Not because we don’t believe in the Jewish faith—on the contrary. It’s because we still have hope that he could come back,” Chen said. Until he and his wife know with absolute certainty that their son is dead, they refuse to give up hope.

Chen made these comments as part of the Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast, an annual interfaith gathering founded in 2017 to foster global prayer and diplomatic solidarity with Israel. Addressing the crowd, he emphasized that the goals of dismantling Hamas and returning all the hostages “don’t always coexist.” “It is unfortunate that after 600 days, I am still standing here, wishing to see my son back, as well as 57 other hostages,” he said.

Explosive new intelligence report reveals Iran’s nuclear weapons program still active

(Worthy Insights) – A new intelligence report claims Iran is continuing with its active nuclear weapons program, which it says can be used to launch missiles over long distances.

The startling intelligence gathering of Austrian officials contradicts the assessment of the U.S. Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI). Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard told a Senate Intelligence Committee in March that the American intelligence community “continues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has not authorized the nuclear weapons program he suspended in 2003.”

Austria’s version of the FBI — the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution — wrote Monday in an intelligence report, “In order to assert and enforce its regional political power ambitions, the Islamic Republic of Iran is striving for comprehensive rearmament, with nuclear weapons to make the regime immune to attack and to expand and consolidate its dominance in the Middle East and beyond.” [ Source (Read More…) ]

Gen Z Is Rebelling—by Getting Religion

(Worthy Insights) – After decades of steady decline, the share of Americans identifying as Christian has stabilized. One reason is the unexpected religiosity of Generation Z—young adults born after 2000—who are not abandoning religion at the rate their parents did. For some, faith has become a form of rebellion against a culture that rejects traditional values.

According to the Pew Research Center’s latest Religious Landscape Study, 63 percent of Americans now identify as Christian—a slight increase from the 2022 low of 60 percent and part of a five-year trend of relative stability following nearly two decades of decline. The study analyzed respondents by birth decade and found that every twentieth-century cohort showed a drop in Christian identification compared with the previous one. For example, 80 percent of the group born in the 1940s and earlier identify as Christian, compared with just 46 percent of those born in the 1990s. But among those born in the 2000s, the rate held steady at the 1990s level, suggesting that the generational decline may have plateaued. [ Source (Read More…) ]

European Congress on Evangelism Opens in Berlin with a Call for Bold Gospel Proclamation

(Worthy Insights) – The atmosphere inside the JW Marriott auditorium was electric as the opening day of the European Congress on Evangelism commenced. Set against the impressive backdrop of a 25-meter-wide stage, award-winning concert pianist Huntley Brown filled the space with a blend of classic hymns and contemporary worship songs, culminating in the powerful refrain of “Goodness of God.” A single, illuminated cross dominated the stage, establishing an ambience of reverence and expectancy.

With over 1,000 pastors and Christian leaders from 55 countries and territories—from the UK to Ukraine, Spain to Sweden—this congress marks a significant moment for the Church in Europe, taking place nearly 60 years after Billy Graham’s inaugural World Congress on Evangelism in 1966.

The opening session featured a moving flag ceremony, with stewards parading the flags of the 57 recognized countries of Europe, which were then placed along the upper mezzanine of the auditorium. [ Source (Read More…) ]
