The whole point of the Dobbs ruling was to return the question of abortion to the states. Dozens of them acted immediately, passing strong protections for the unborn and women. But now, thanks to Biden — and now, the Trump administration’s indifference — those democratically-enacted laws have been tossed aside, unconstitutionally.

Israeli forces have dismantled eight Hamas tunnel routes and killed dozens of terrorists in the Gaza Strip, according to the Israel Defense Forces. The operation concluded a two-month deployment by reservists from the 205th Brigade in northern Gaza.

Vice President JD Vance said he plans to pursue action against alleged fraud in Ohio following a bombshell report by Luke Rosiak at The Daily Wire claiming widespread abuse of Medicaid within parts of the Somali community in Columbus. The report alleges that many individuals have created home health care companies that employ relatives or associates, who then bill Medicaid for services provided to their own family members.

Money is tight for everyone, it seems — except Planned Parenthood. While everyday Americans work and scrape, the country’s most lethal business is raking in record profits. And it’s no wonder, experts point out. The nation’s scandal-ridden abortion giant isn’t just killing unborn babies, it’s mutilating the teenagers it didn’t.

Emergency responders have increasingly contained the blazes, making it safe for Samaritan’s Purse to enter the area. Our volunteers started the morning of May 4, serving families in Brantley County whose homes were lost or damaged to the flames. They are helping residents with debris removal from properties, while also sharing the hope of the Gospel with those who are hurting.

Despite the devastation and uncertainty brought by the ongoing conflict in Iran, a remarkable spiritual movement is quietly accelerating beneath the surface. Christian leaders report that the nation’s underground Church is not only enduring—but growing stronger—amid the chaos.

Camille Kiefel, a woman who once believed she was “non-binary,” won a settlement against two therapists who referred her for a double mastectomy as a “gender affirming” medical procedure. 

The choice is yours: will you react or respond to God’s holy, righteous judgment? The Scriptures make it clear that a time of final judgment is coming because of sin. All of us have sinned and the wages (payment) for our sin is death: spiritual death (Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23). We deserve punishment, but God longs for a close personal relationship with each of us and has made a way for us to be right with Him through Jesus. Will you pridefully try to save yourself, or will you call on Jesus to rescue you from God’s eternal wrath and bring you into a relationship with Him?

A paper published last month by medical watchdog group Do No Harm warns state officials and health insurance providers that “Healthcare Providers May Skirt Coding Rules to Get Paid for Child Sex Changes,” as the title puts it. The document identifies potential ways that medical providers can falsify insurance codes to ensure payment for gender transition procedures to evade state legislation, and it also identifies organizations advising providers to do just that.

As Christians, should we carelessly employ language that dishonors God and reinforces the false idea that men can become women and women can become men? Should we signal acceptance of the false belief that cross-sex hormones and/or surgery accomplish the impossible? Of course not. Reinforcing the false concept with our language keeps people stuck rather than showing them the way out.

It’s safe to say that, among the nations of the world, Israel perhaps evokes stronger thoughts and emotions in people than any other. Israel and polarization seem to fit hand in glove, as people either strongly like or love Israel or dislike or even hate the Jewish nation. It seems most people tend to feel very strongly about Israel, one way or another. In the church today, the nation of Israel is also a point of contention, not geopolitically, per se, but biblically

The resolution rejects the “humanistic, globalist ideologies of the World Health Organization, the United Nations, and like-minded organizations that fight for population control through the means of promoting sterilization and abortion practices... The nuclear family is God’s perfect design for humanity and is aligned with the long-held traditional values of Tennessee.”

A Texas state agency has been ordered to comply with a previously approved settlement tied to a large planned development in North Texas, as legal and political disputes over the project continue across multiple levels of government.

Federal authorities launched a sweeping crackdown Tuesday as the Federal Bureau of Investigation executed search warrants at nearly two dozen childcare centers across Minneapolis, targeting what officials describe as a growing web of fraud schemes in the Twin Cities.

“To suggest that abortion is acceptable because it saves the state of Colorado money is dystopian and morally objectionable on every level. If we ever hope to attain a more civil society, we must start by respecting human life at all stages of development. Children are not a burden on society – they are a blessing.”
