FBI Investigating Seattle After Mayor Blamed Christians for Violent Rioters Who Attacked Them

(Worthy Insights) – The FBI is investigating the city of Seattle after the mayor pointed the finger of blame at a group of Christians who were assaulted by rioters while participating in a worship and prayer rally. News of the violent counter-protest has gone viral, even sparking response at the White House.

As CBN News has reported, the grassroots movement #DontMessWithOurKids gathers thousands of believers together in every state to pray for a move of God to protect America’s children and turn around the U.S. education system.

The organization kicked off MayDay USA at the beginning of the month to bring the major prayer movement and evangelism outreach to five cities in the U.S. and to see the “sacredness of gender and family as defined by God” restored. [ Source (Read More…) ]

Israel’s new buffer zone in Syria begins to stabilize, but the ground is shifting fast

(Worthy Insights) – Nearly six months have passed since the collapse of Bashar Assad’s regime in Syria, after which IDF forces began entering Syrian territory. The new security buffer zone Israel has established along the border in the Golan Heights is beginning to take shape, but the atmosphere remains tense, and the situation is evolving faster than history is accustomed to.

Take Tel Kodna, for example—once a Syrian outpost, it has overnight become a forward Israeli control post. “We’ve gone back to the days of border outposts, like in South Lebanon,” says Col. Benny Kata, commander of the 474th Golan Brigade. “This is an outpost. It operates like one. It’s a combat zone, with ready machine-gun positions, fragmentation grenades and missiles.” [ Source (Read More…) ]

Franklin Graham Preps for Europe’s Largest Evangelism Event in 25 Years: ‘We Want to Ignite a Fire’

(Worthy Insights) – From the time that Jesus gave the Great Commission to his disciples until today, the message hasn’t changed – “Go into all the world and preach the Gospel.” The Rev. Billy Graham took that mandate seriously, and his son Franklin still does as well. So on May 27-30, the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association will host the largest gathering on Christian evangelism in 25 years in Berlin, Germany.

The last time they met was in Holland, where evangelists and ministers from across the world gathered for Amsterdam 2000. They came from India, Nigeria, Kazakhstan, the United States, Singapore, and more.

It was a moment seen as a “passing of the torch” by the Rev. Billy Graham – who couldn’t make the conference due to health problems – to the next generation of Christian evangelists. [ Source (Read More…) ]

Slain Israeli diplomat Yarón Lischinsky was German Christian who fell in love with Jewish state

(Worthy Insights) – Yarón Lischinsky (30) and Sarah Lynn Milgrim (26), two staff members of the Israeli embassy in Washington, were murdered Thursday in a shooting attack outside the Jewish Museum in the US capital. The perpetrator, Elias Rodriguez, 31, from Chicago – a far-left activist previously involved in anti-Israeli protests across the US – left behind a manifesto declaring he carried out the attack “as part of the Palestinian struggle.”

Lischinsky grew up in Nuremberg, Germany as an Evangelical Christian before moving to Israel in his youth driven by Zionist ideals. Zineb Riboua, a Moroccan researcher based in the US who maintained a close friendship with Lischinsky, shared her grief on social media, writing: “Yarón Lischinskywas the finest friend I’ve ever had, brilliant, kind, and endlessly thoughtful. A devout Christian and a gifted linguist, he spoke German, Hebrew, and Japanese. He was full of curiosity and always brimming with ideas. I don’t think we ever had a conversation that didn’t leave me inspired to write something new. He loved America. He was excited about the future, about finally visiting Texas, and about the life he and his beloved fiancée were building together. I was supposed to meet her today. They are both gone. And the loss is immeasurable. The world has lost two extraordinary souls. And I have lost a dear friend who made every moment brighter.” [ Source (Read More…) ]

CNN Freaks Out Over Prayer Hegseth’s Pastor Gave at Pentagon: No Wonder – It Was Excellent

(Worthy Insights) – It’s good to see that CNN isn’t taking long to freak out over the prayer service Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had his pastor host, finding “a national security law expert” to call it a “clear violation” of the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment.

The headline itself was actually quite neutral, at least by CNN standards: “Hegseth hosts first meeting of what he says will be a monthly Christian prayer service at Pentagon.”

“The service, which Hegseth told the audience would be a monthly event, was held in the Pentagon auditorium and broadcast live on the department’s internal TV network. Current and former defense officials told CNN it was highly unusual for the secretary to host a religious event during the workday for a particular religion,” CNN noted. [ Source (Read More…) ]

House Passes ‘Big Beautiful Bill’, Pro-Life Advocates Applaud Cuts to Planned Parenthood Funding

(Worthy Insights) – GOP lawmakers introduced a provision in the”Big Beautiful Bill” that would cut Medicaid funds from going to the abortion industry, including Planned Parenthood.

The bill includes language that not only removes taxpayer funding from the abortion giant but also cuts funding “for organizations that participate in transgender medical interventions for minors.”

Christian Summer Camp Fights Back Amid Claims Government Could Shut It Down Over Gender Law

(Worthy Insights) – A Christian summer camp in Colorado is suing over a gender policy it says could shut it down.

CNN: New intelligence suggests Israel is preparing possible strike on Iranian nuclear facilities, US officials say

(Worthy Insights) – The US has obtained new intelligence suggesting that Israel is making preparations to strike Iranian nuclear facilities, even as the Trump administration has been pursuing a diplomatic deal with Tehran, multiple US officials familiar with the latest intelligence told CNN.

Such a strike would be a brazen break with President Donald Trump, US officials said. It could also risk tipping off a broader regional conflict in the Middle East — something the US has sought to avoid since the war in Gaza inflamed tensions beginning in 2023.

Officials caution it’s not clear that Israeli leaders have made a final decision, and that in fact, there is deep disagreement within the US government about the likelihood that Israel will ultimately act. Whether and how Israel strikes will likely depend on what it thinks of the US negotiations with Tehran over its nuclear program. [ Source (Read More…) ]

Revival Sparks Reported in Spartanburg, SC, and There’s a Big Plan to Take It Statewide

(Worthy Insights) – An incredible move of God is stirring in Spartanburg, South Carolina. Over the past two years, there has been what locals are calling the beginning of a revival, and they are looking to take it all the way to the capital of the state.

It began with different outreach ministries sharing the gospel throughout the city, student-led clubs in high schools holding Christian rallies during lunchtime, and city-wide prayer meetings that bridged church, racial, and generational barriers. It is now moving toward a citywide multi-day evangelistic crusade taking place June 6-8 at the county fairgrounds. The organizers are looking to then move on to a statewide crusade in Columbia, South Carolina, in the fall.

There are no “big names” or “big bands involved.” In fact, the main speaker for the crusade is Jacob Ebersole of World Harvest. He is a local evangelist who has done work primarily overseas but felt stirred in 2023 to shift his focus to his hometown. The worship music for the event will be led by a mass gospel choir of 200+ people from the area. [ Source (Read More…) ]
