A West Virginia high school student—who for the past four years has fought to protect female sports from male participation—says the recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling upholding her state’s laws to keep men out of women’s athletics is evidence of God’s faithfulness after He called her to stand on Biblical truth.

“We know the YMCA has heard these concerns,” the letter stressed. “On multiple occasions, shortly after APC publicly exposed these policies, the YMCA removed or changed the webpages containing them. But the policies themselves didn’t change. In fact, our most recent investigation found that some YMCA camps have expanded these practices to allow adult biological male counselors to sleep in girls’ cabins so long as those male counselors identify as girls.”

Arguments concluded Friday in the preliminary hearing of the man accused of assassinating Charlie Kirk last fall. Tyler Robinson’s defense team attempted to cast doubt on video, ballistics, and DNA evidence. Meanwhile, prosecutors showcased multiple videos of what appeared to be Robinson on the Utah campus the day of the shooting, and digital messages in which Robinson seems to confess to the murder.

In a Facebook post Tuesday, Franklin Graham thanked President Donald Trump for his role in the release of imprisoned Christian pastor Ezra Jin Mingri—founder of an underground church in China—who had been detained for 266 days. Jin, 57, was released and reunited with his wife and daughter in Los Angeles Friday, roughly two months after Trump pressed Chinese President Xi Jinping to free him during a U.S.-China summit in Beijing. Jin was arrested Oct. 11 after Chinese officials raided his home in Beihai, Guangxi Province, the previous evening and conducted an all-night search. He was charged with “illegally using information networks,” according to The New York Times.

“When a denomination votes to bless what God calls sin, the vote itself is not the real story,” he stated. “The real story is a church that has decided the spirit of the age gets the final word instead of the Word that made the age. That decision was settled long before any ballot was counted... Scripture does not leave us guessing about who we are. Genesis tells us God made us male and female in His own image, and He called His handiwork very good (Genesis 1:27, 31). A church that can no longer say so has stopped listening to the One it claims to serve and begun echoing the culture it was sent to reach."

Steven Kefas, the OFRA senior research analyst who authored the article centered on captivity in Nigeria, says “[t]he field research reveals a lesser value is assigned to a Christian life. From the moment of capture, Muslim and Christian hostages enter different realities. It is not about individual captors. It is a system—consistent across multiple states, armed groups, and multiple years of survivor testimony.”
