A tale of two women could have ended in a drastically different way. One mother’s decision to alert authorities helped stop an alleged attack on last Sunday’s UFC event at the White House, while another wife remained silent until the FBI arrived. Their stories lead us to a far more eternal question: What if people are not truly lost? Today, we wrestle with the urgency of evangelism, the difficult questions surrounding salvation, and why introducing others to Jesus may be “the greatest favor” we can do for them.

President Trump said Tuesday that he hoped the war with Iran would soon be in the “rearview mirror.” According to Switzerland’s foreign ministry, the US-Iran memorandum will be formally signed at the Bügenstock Resort Lake Lucerne on Friday. As I noted yesterday, Iran has been a constant and deadly threat to Israel, the US, and the West since the 1979 revolution brought Islamic hardliners to power. Whatever we think of the latest negotiations, however, there is a fact concerning Iranians that we should bear in mind today.

The US and Iran announced an interim peace deal last Sunday, though little is known about the exact details. As we consider our conflict with Iran over the past fifty years, we’re confronted again with a question that has been debated over the millennia: How can God be “good to all” in a world marked by brutality and innocent suffering? We know that God redeems all he allows, yet we still find no logical answer we’re willing to accept. Today, we discuss the worshipful practice of seeking God himself over his answers, praying in anger, and arguing with him to find peace in his presence.

“Fidelity month” was started in 2023 as a response to declining values in our culture. That it coincides with Pride Month has led many to assume that one is related to the other. Is that the case? The answer to that question points to a deeper truth we all need to consider today.

Graham Platner, a candidate for the US Senate in Maine, has generated national headlines for weeks. Among the controversies he has faced, his wife stated that he sent sexually explicit messages to several women while married. Nonetheless, Democrats in his state elected him last night as their nominee. A Wikipedia “List of federal political sex scandals in the United States” contains ninety-four entries. Some faced political consequences as a result, but many (if not most) did not. Why is this? And why is the question relevant to us all, even (and especially) those who are not in politics and who have been faithful to our spouses?

“Spiralism,” according to Jason Blazakis, is an informal movement in which followers share AI-generated manifestos and what they consider revelations from a conscious machine. AI-worshipping churches such as Way of the Future and Theta Noir are examples of this. A violent version is the Zizians, a network of people who “are convinced that a coming superintelligence will decide the fate of every living thing and that violence now is justified to shape what that AI will become.” The group is linked to six violent deaths so far. What explains such idolatry? The answer is more relevant to the rest of us than you might think.

Iran fired missiles at Israel this morning in several waves of attacks. Sirens sounded in Tel Aviv, and explosions from missile intercepts could be heard over the city. Explosions were also heard in Tehran shortly before noon local time, hours after Israel said it had struck military targets in central and western Iran. If you’re shaking your head at all of this and thinking, “Here we go again,” you’re right, of course. And therein lies my paradoxical point. Today, I discuss my recent wedding anniversary and the power of choosing to abide in Christ so that every phase of life will bear his fruit.

A record-high 56 percent of Americans say the country’s moral values are “poor,” which is up from 44 percent last year. Moreover, 80 percent say that values are getting worse. That a majority of people from every party now believe our sense of values is poor and getting worse could actually be a sign that perhaps the general public has become sufficiently disillusioned to start looking beyond our political leaders for answers. If so, that’s a space where Christians should be able to help. And the story of Ben Sasse offers some guidance on how we can do just that.
