Formerly, “we didn’t see this level of hostility, where they’re attacking and burning and even sometimes having these shootings that are taking place” in churches, said Perkins. “Unfortunately, we’ve seen a spike in attacks like these on churches over the past several years, as documented in FRC’s annual report.”

“In response to such abhorrent acts, as provided throughout USCIRF’s 2025 Annual Report, the U.S. government should strengthen its advocacy on behalf of individuals persecuted in foreign countries on account of their religion or belief, including those who have suffered torture or other ill treatment,” report concluded.
Most of us are optimists. We are hoping that things will improve politically and, therefore, morally. Optimistic though we may be, we may be setting ourselves up for disappointment—because the Bible doesn’t tell us that society will get better. It rather warns us of the opposite.
There is no doubt that AI is changing and will change our world in ways we probably can't imagine right now. Even these tech billionaires who really understand this better than anyone else probably have a greater fear of it than anyone else. These tech billionaires believe that some dramatic change is coming, they're afraid of it, and they're preparing for doomsday. So what do we make of all this?
Representative Lisa McClain (R-MI) powerfully spoke before Congress, applauding the young woman for her Biblical courage to choose truth over a title. "Kayleigh represents a modern-day Esther: one who is willing to speak when the culture demands silence. Her story reminds us that courage is contagious, truth is not negotiable, and that no earthly crown compares to the one given by Christ."
In response to the ongoing widespread massacre of Christians being carried out by numerous Islamist militia groups in Nigeria, a coalition of 35 religious freedom advocates and Christian leaders sent a letter to President Donald Trump Wednesday urging him to redesignate the West African nation as a Country of Particular Concern (CPC).

U.S. President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that American forces conducted another lethal strike on a suspected drug-trafficking vessel off the coast of Venezuela, killing six people in what the administration calls part of a “noninternational armed conflict” with narco-terrorist networks.
In 1941, Auschwitz, the largest Nazi concentration camp in Europe, became a place of unspeakable evil. It was there that Holocaust victims were tattooed with identification numbers—initially on the chest, later on the inner forearm. Upon arrival, prisoners faced a gruesome selektion process: those sent to the right went immediately to the gas chambers, while those to the left were stripped, shaved, and sent into forced labor. Their dignity, identity, and freedom were stolen—reduced to a number burned into their flesh. What was once forced upon humanity under tyranny may soon be welcomed under convenience.
Turkey has deported hundreds of Christians and barred them from reentering the country, according to a new report. Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) International legal officer Lidia Rieder told the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) on Monday that Turkey’s government is labeling Christian foreigners “national security threats” in order to deport them and block them from returning to the country.
The state of Massachusetts has stripped another Christian foster care couple of their foster licensing after they declined to sign a state-enforced gender affirming...
Chinese Communist Party (CCP) officials on Friday evening arrested more than two dozen pastors across at least seven provinces who are part of the underground Zion Church network, extending what China Aid called “the most extensive and coordinated wave of persecution against urban independent house churches in China in over four decades.”
“We’re just grateful that even though all these things are going on, we have the opportunity to serve,” Sarcos said. “Our networks are in place, even though they are suffering, too, and they are ready to minister to families and grateful for the opportunity to serve their own people and own community. Communities are so encouraged by the presence of Samaritan’s Purse and our churches.”
Miles said TPUSA stands with the pastor and congregation and would not be undeterred by the incident. “While we pursue justice, we refuse to be distracted. The enemy would love to use moments like this to derail the revival God is stirring—but we’re more committed than ever to advancing truth, faith, and freedom across this nation.”
The Billy Graham Rapid Response Team (BG-RRT) is deploying crisis-trained chaplains near Nashville, Tennessee, where multiple casualties have been reported following a blast at an explosives manufacturing plant. As of Saturday morning, 18 people are unaccounted for.
Every one of our Supreme Court victories are causing a seismic shift in the law. However, there is much more to be done. There are many bad precedents on the books that still need to be corrected or overturned.
As photos of her design circulated on the internet, Sabrina’s testimony of standing firm in her witness for Christ has brought followers of her story to an important truth: Countless Christian youth today, despite the resistance found in schools and hostility in online platforms, are choosing to openly stand for Christ.
Shortly after the Charlie Kirk assassination, Zion shared his faith in a two-minute statement. He was inspired to do so after the Kirk memorial service. At some point, the teacher muted Zion and then completely removed him from the meeting.
The local Hindus had gathered to discuss how the growing number of conversions to Christianity in their region was affecting their cultural identity, customs, and traditions. By the end of the meeting, they decided to oppose Christian burial practices and deny believers access to burial land.
Our nation is facing a cloud of gloom and doom, but there is a silver lining. Jesus said that in the end times, right before His return, the world will become as evil as it was in the days of Noah (Matthew 24:37-39). If you will take a look at the Bible’s description of those days in Genesis 6, you will see that they were characterized by two things: immorality and violence. We have arrived.
“Senator Cruz’s comments clearly struck a nerve with the Nigerian government, and they should. The Nigerian government should be deeply ashamed of the way they have negligently refused to protect Christian communities from repeated attacks by radical Islamists who burn entire villages and kill innocent Christians in the middle of the night. This is an ongoing travesty, and one that I’m so glad Senator Cruz is trying to address."
“Colorado forbids counselors like Kaley Chiles from helping minors pursue state disfavored goals on issues of gender and sexuality,” Campbell said. “This law prophylactically bans voluntary conversations, censoring widely held views on debated moral, religious and scientific questions. Aside from this law and recent ones like it, Colorado hasn’t identified any similar viewpoint-based bans on counseling. These laws are historic outliers.”
Following the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk and ongoing political violence targeting federal law enforcement, a Democratic candidate for the role of Virginia’s attorney general is being exposed for explicitly wishing violence on his political opponents and their families — all without losing a single Democratic endorsement.
The chilling attacks, announced by the militant group through photos and statements, draw attention to the growing persecution of Christians in Mozambique, as the Islamic militant group advocates for the killing of Christians and pushes farther south in the country.
“President Trump is using his lawful authority to direct the National Guard to protect federal assets and personnel in Portland following months of violent riots where officers have been assaulted and doxxed by left-wing rioters.”
“Tennessee law prohibits denying a person the full and equal enjoyment of a public accommodation on the grounds of religion,” Skrmetti wrote in the letter. “Should Morristown enforce Section 9-204 as written, the City would be treating activities differently on the basis of religion and would therefore be in violation of Tennessee’s Human Rights Act.”
In a victory for free speech on Tuesday, the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Kentucky held Louisville accountable for violating the First Amendment rights of a wedding photographer and blogger and protected her freedom to speak messages that align with her religious beliefs.
Commission members discussed some of the fundamental reasons why killings like these may happen. “We live in a climate that is hyper secular,” said Eric Metaxas. “The mainstream media has fomented hatred of people who love God and who talk about God publicly.” But he added that churches also share some of the blame, for not having the courage to teach about the link between faith, freedom and virtue, and for trying to avoid “political” issues. “It made Charlie Kirk look like a radical and put a target on him,” Metaxas said.
These drastic steps were taken by the President to tackle the same sort of problematic crises plaguing so many major American cities, with Washington, DC being no exception. Yet, instead of being met with gratitude, approval, and enthusiasm, a media firestorm ignited almost immediately with false accusations being made that the President was initiating an authoritarian military takeover of the capital.
A community in the U.S. state of Michigan was plunged into mourning Monday after a former Marine crashed his vehicle into a church, opened fire on worshippers, and set the building ablaze, killing at least four people and wounding eight others before being killed in a shootout with police.
That’s the baton in our hands now. When Charlie held a microphone, he was handing us the torch. The only question is: will you take it? Or will you fumble it and watch the culture burn to ash? In the end, the choice isn’t complicated. Stand bold in the face of evil, or shrink back and let rot take over. One road leads to despair. The other to revival. The time is now.
Several nations in the Middle East openly and legally condone the discrimination and persecution of Christians within their borders. Despite being the birthplace of Christianity, believers living in the region are often left with two choices: leave their homes or learn to live as targets of intolerance.
Democratic administrations have used SPLC propaganda to infiltrate churches and harass veterans. The media has amplified SPLC’s credibility to cancel and silence conservatives. And corporate America has blood on its hands. Apple, JPMorgan Chase, Starbucks, and Disney have funneled millions directly to SPLC, while Amazon, GuideStar, and PayPal have used its biased labels to deny services and block donor-directed funds from organizations standing against the Left’s agenda.
