Dr. Anthony Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment more than one hundred times during a contentious Senate hearing yesterday, reviving memories of the pandemic and the mortality it forced us to confront. Most of us would rather avoid thinking about death and return to the business of living. Yet Scripture suggests that recognizing how fleeting our lives are may be essential to using them well. Today, we consider what it means to “pass through things temporal” without losing the things that are eternal.

More than a thousand pages from Dr. Anthony Fauci’s private diary are making headlines ahead of his testimony before Congress today. While the entries have renewed debate over the pandemic and his public role, they also raise a more personal question: What would our private thoughts reveal about who we truly are? Christianity offers more than outward behavior modification—Jesus works from the inside out, transforming our desires while empowering us to resist the impulses that remain. Today, we consider how what we love shapes who we become.

Recent reports of Christians preaching to fellow airline passengers raise a difficult question: If the gospel is the only cure for humanity’s terminal condition, how urgently should we share it? Yet while some believers evangelize captive audiences, surveys suggest most Christians rarely witness at all. A surprising creative choice in Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey helps explain why our culture often treats spiritual truth differently than earlier generations did. Today, we consider why effective evangelism begins not with trying harder, but with yielding ourselves until Christ is formed in us.

Deadly attacks in Seattle and Berlin raise one of faith’s hardest questions: If God intervened to protect innocent people in Scripture, why does he not always do so now? When suffering challenges our confidence in his goodness, trusting him can feel like a leap into the dark. Yet the distinction between blind faith and rational faith offers another way to understand that choice. Today, we consider whether the evidence of God’s character—especially the cross—can sustain our trust when his actions remain beyond our understanding.

Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey brings Homer’s ancient epic to life with spectacular scale, but the history behind the story raises questions the film itself cannot answer. Unlike Odysseus, the evidence for the historicity of Jesus is conclusive—yet both stories portray a world in which good and evil are real and morality has consequences. Our deeper problem is that recognizing what is right cannot overcome the fallen nature that keeps us from becoming who God created us to be. Today, we consider why Christlikeness is produced not by imitation, but by Christ living and working within us.

As sweltering “dog days” stretch through the longest possible unofficial summer, we may wish Earth’s seasons worked differently. Yet our planet’s tilt, orbit, magnetic field, and even the way ice floats are all precisely suited to sustain life. While some attribute this remarkable balance to cosmic chance, Scripture begins with a different explanation: “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” Today, we consider how genuinely believing Genesis 1:1 should transform the way we trust, worship, obey, and seek our Creator.

The people who age best may not be those who fight hardest against getting older, but those who become more selective about what truly matters. The daily reminders of our mortality can produce fear, but David responded to suffering by declaring, “My times are in your hand.” When we trust that every season is held by God, even pain can become part of what John Keats called “the vale of Soul-making.” Today, we consider how God may be simplifying and reshaping our lives to make us more like Christ.

An explosive device outside a New York immigration court and the FBI’s interception of hundreds of suspicious drones at World Cup events remind us that unseen threats may be closer than we realize. The same is true spiritually: while our culture assumes all religions lead to the same destination, Scripture declares that salvation is found in Jesus alone. Sharing that truth can feel intimidating, but the Holy Spirit knows the hearts of those around us and can overcome our fear with his power. Today, we consider what it means to live on the other side of Pentecost as “living Christs here and now.”

From the history-making birth of JD Vance’s fourth child to a World Cup victory for Spain and the deaths of American soldiers in the Middle East, the weekend brought news both joyful and tragic. J. R. R. Tolkien coined the word eucatastrophe to describe “the sudden, unexpected turn toward joy that occurs at the darkest moment of a story.” This joy does not erase the sorrow that came before it but passes through it, just as Easter followed the cross. Today, we consider how knowing the end of our story can transform the way we face its darkest chapters.

President Trump used last night’s address to focus largely on election integrity, highlighting declassified information and again calling on the Senate to pass the SAVE America Act. While requiring voter identification and proof of citizenship may seem reasonable, implementing such sweeping changes before November could create significant burdens and errors. The larger lesson extends far beyond elections: the inability to let go of the past can become the greatest hindrance to a successful future. Today, we consider whether we are holding tight to old grievances or opening our hands to whatever God wants to put in their place.
