(Worthy Insights) – A recent dataset shared with TIME reveals that 75% of Christian voters have little or no trust in the Democratic Party, while 70% express little confidence in the federal government, and 61% believe life in America has become harder for people of faith over the past decade. This growing mistrust has contributed to Democrats losing this group by a two-to-one margin in the last presidential election. Party leaders like Doug Pagitt warn that Democrats cannot hope to remain the majority party while sidelining the majority faith in the country. The party’s ongoing struggle to reconcile faith with its brand of inclusivity has become a significant obstacle, alienating millions of voters who see religion as central to their identity.

A shocking 75% of these Christian voters say that they have little or no trust in the Democratic Party, according to the data shared first with TIME. (By contrast, Republicans just about break even on that question.) A stunning 70% of these voters have little to no confidence in the federal government. And 61% of these voters think life in America is harder today for people of faith than it was 10 years ago. [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – Missionaries in the Middle East are once again reporting signs and wonders, including divine encounters with Jesus Christ.

(Worthy Insights) – Against the backdrop of recent satellite images showing construction and changes at Iran’s nuclear sites, Western intelligence officials believe Tehran is using the time afforded by ongoing negotiations to make alterations that would reduce the effectiveness of any future military strike.

“While nuclear talks are taking place, and Iran keeps scheduling yet another meeting, they are exploiting the time to modify nuclear facilities in ways that could diminish the impact of a potential military strike on those sites and their outcomes,” one of the intelligence sources told The Jerusalem Post.

(Worthy Insights) – With tensions heating up over Iran’s nuclear ambitions, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump spoke Monday about what comes next—and whether Israel might go it alone. According to Keren Setton’s report for The Media Line, Netanyahu called a high-level meeting immediately after the call, while Trump reportedly urged Israel not to jeopardize ongoing US-Iran nuclear negotiations.

But according to security expert Kobi Michael, Israel might be done waiting. “We are closer to an attack than to the successful conclusion of the talks,” he told Setton. With Iran creeping toward weapons-grade capability and its proxy networks weakened since October 2023, Israel sees an opening. It has already carried out deep strikes inside Iran, hit Hezbollah and the Houthis hard, and tested long-range operational capacity—sometimes using over 100 aircraft. [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – In a promising leap forward for burn treatment, researchers from Tel Aviv University and Sheba Medical Center have developed a new type of bioengineered skin that could dramatically improve recovery for burn victims. The team says the innovative graft, created from a patient’s own cells, heals wounds in half the time of current treatments and is stronger, more flexible, and easier to handle than existing options.

The research, published in Advanced Functional Materials, comes as medical teams in Israel continue to treat scores of burn patients, many of them soldiers injured in recent fighting. “Since October 2023, Sheba has treated many young people with burn injuries,” said Dr. Ayelet Di Segni, director of Sheba’s tissue bank. “At such a time, bringing knowledge accumulated in the lab directly to the patient’s bedside becomes an urgent and tangible goal.” [ Source (Read More…) ]

(Worthy Insights) – The FBI has yet to solve at least five cases it opened into arson attacks targeting pro-life pregnancy centers in 2022, according to an investigation by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

The Biden FBI offered cash rewards in 2022 for information on suspects responsible for firebombings around the country, mainly directed at pro-life facilities, after the preemptive May 2 leak of a Supreme Court ruling that overturned the abortion precedent established by Roe v. Wade. Five local FBI field offices told the DCNF that the bureau is still offering the incentive for cases in Colorado, North Carolina, Washington state, Oregon and New York, indicating suspects were never found or convicted.

For those who don’t spend their Sunday mornings glued to the television — and their Sunday afternoons attempting to dig through a week’s worth of network and cable news media spin — The Daily Wire has compiled a short summary of what you may have missed.

After Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents attempted to carry out several raids across the greater Los Angeles area — and were met with two days of protests and violence — President Trump activated the National Guard to help get the situation under control. Even as the National Guardsmen arrived in Los Angeles, Democrats on the Sunday talk shows tried to paint the ongoing riots as “mostly peaceful” and Trump’s actions as excessive.

(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 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…) ]

(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…) ]
