The sanctity of life is promoted throughout the scriptures and is critical for us to address from conception to natural death. There are many that will complain about the violence in our society today while at the same time give their full blessing to violence in the womb. We thank God that 3 years ago we saw Roe v. Wade struck down. Most recently in the One Big Beautiful Bill, funding is being pulled from Planned Parenthood. We know there is a court challenge to stop this, but its passage is inevitable. Over 30 Planned Parenthood Centers have announced their closure this year and there are more to come. In so many states babies continue to be targeted in the womb and tragically, according to numberofabortions.com, we are approaching nearly 67 million lives lost.

The talk by Dr. Clayton Shumpert explores the profound responsibility Christians have to share the gospel, framing the withholding of this message as a form of "murder by neglect" akin to withholding life-saving water. Drawing parallels to historical tragedies and contrasting the generosity of the Sea of Galilee with the barrenness of the Dead Sea, the message emphasizes the importance of a mission-minded church, highlighting its potential to build faith, fellowship, and financial stability while ultimately securing a future reward and witnessing the fruit of labor as converts express gratitude for the life-giving message received.

Usama Dakdok is the Founder of the Straight Way of Grace Ministry. He is the speaker on the daily radio broadcast Revealing the Truth About Islam. Born and raised in Egypt, Usama learned about Islam just as every other student does in a Muslim country. He also studied for a university degree in Egypt which included the study of Sharia, which is Islamic law. Islam is pushing for world domination. Consider what is happening in France, the UK, Montreal, Canada, and Greece, and also what is being witnessed right here in the United States. A strong contender in the race for mayor of America's largest city, New York City, is a Muslim man who has called for the defunding of police, the very system of public protection to uphold the law, and has refused to condemn "globalize the intifada." This is in a city that has the largest concentration of Jews in the U.S. We also see another Muslim rising up vying to be mayor of Minneapolis. As a matter of fact, just 9 months ago, Voice of America ran a story titled, "Muslim candidates surge in local elections in US." CBN recently ran a story in which they quoted Israel's Minister of Diaspora Affairs, Amichai Chikli, who said, "I think it's very important for Americans to understand that there is a plan of the Muslim Brotherhood. They have a vision, in 100 years, to make America a Muslim state." And yet with the trajectory we are presently on, it will take far less than 100 years for this to happen. We've got many stories to bring to your attention today, all which focus on Islam's push for world domination.

Pastor Randy Zeman is the Senior Pastor of Freedom in Christ Assembly in Baraboo, WI. Jerome Ormson is an evangelist. Jordan Cernek is a former teacher in the Argyle School District in Lafayette County, WI who was let go for not using correct pronouns. He is now a bi-vocational pastor ministering to the Nora Community Church and the McConnell Community Church. In Romans chapter 1 starting at verse 21 we read, "Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools," In verses 24 and 25 we see, "Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator..." Then in verses 26 and 27 we read, "For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly..." Finally in verse 28 we read, "...God gave them over to a reprobate mind..." This is exactly what is happening in our culture today! In this program we were introduced to two pastors who are concerned about what's happening in their community. This is followed by a person who was let go for not using proper pronouns.

An old hotel, a small town, and the birthplace of the Gideons in Boscobel, Wisconsin The narrative recounts the serendipitous encounter of two businessmen who, through a shared practice of nightly Bible reading, initiate a global ministry dedicated to distributing God's Word. Drawing from a historical anecdote originating in Boscobel, Wisconsin, the story highlights the power of simple acts of faith and fellowship to spark movements of significant impact. It emphasizes the widespread availability of Scripture through the Gideons' ministry, demonstrating a commitment to providing access to the Bible in hotels and communities worldwide. The account serves as an encouragement to recognize the potential for faith-inspired initiatives to flourish from humble beginnings and bear fruit on a grand scale. Ultimately, the story underscores the enduring importance of Scripture and its accessibility to all.

Jim was back at the microphone and with the help of the Crosstalk team, he relayed many stories for listeners to consider. Below is a sample of what can be heard: --French President Emmanuel Macron took to X yesterday to announce his intention for France to become the State of Palestine (recognize the State of Palestine) at the U.N. General Assembly next September. --Iran confirmed on Monday it will not give up its nuclear enrichment program. --A foreign national from Lebanon has been sentenced to nearly 4 years in prison for conspiring to violate the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and the Iranian transactions and sanctions regulations when he attempted to smuggle U.S. made drills into Iran. --The U.S. will examine "alternative options" to bring home the 50 captives held by Hamas as the terrorist group "does not appear to be coordinated or acting in good faith," according to U.S. Mideast Envoy Steve Witkoff. --The U.S. Department of Justice and U.S. Attorneys Office for the District of Columbia have unsealed a civil forfeiture action targeting approximately 2 million dollars in digital currency allegedly tied to a Gaza based terror finance network. --Newly released Israeli Defense Forces footage exposes Hamas operatives living in luxury beneath Gaza's devastated streets, feasting on elaborate meals in well-stocked underground tunnels while the terrorist group simultaneously spreads propaganda, claiming that Israel is starving the Palestinians. --A woman in her 70's was indicted for an alleged attempt to assassinate Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Randy Melchert speaks with Pastor Bob Hassel about an outbreak of revival at his church in Champaign, Illinois. The interview explores the challenges of ministry in a post-Christian nation and the pursuit of revival, drawing from personal experiences and historical examples. It emphasizes the importance of prayer, transparency, and humility as foundational elements for encountering God, recounting a transformative revival experience in the church and the subsequent ministry assisting others. The speaker underscores that true revival isn't about grand events but a return to a normal, intimate relationship with God, marked by honest confession, a willingness to be vulnerable, and a recognition that God's plan surpasses human understanding, ultimately leading to a deeper joy and a desire to share His love.

Recently, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, released a declassified file that she indicates contains overwhelming evidence that former President Barack Obama and his national security team manufactured and politicized intelligence pertaining to Russian collusion. This goes back to when candidate Donald Trump was accused of colluding with Russia in order to influence the 2016 presidential election. Gabbard indicated that she's submitted a criminal referral to the Department of Justice and as such, the Justice Department has formed a strike force to assess the evidence. Returning to Crosstalk to discuss this latest news was Robert Knight. He's a former Los Angeles Times news editor and columnist for the Washington Times as well as other publications. Take the time to review this edition of Crosstalk as Robert reveals why this case truly does have the evidence behind it to qualify as a conspiracy. As he points out, the FBI and other intelligence agencies assessed the idea that the Russians were colluding with the Trump campaign so that he would win the 2016 election. They concluded that there was low intelligence (low value) so it probably wasn't true. However, they released the report saying just the opposite; that it had high value. They leaked it to the press who then accused Trump of colluding with the Russians and hearings took place, all designed to cripple Trump's presidency. So what's really going on here and why does it matter all these years later? Was Russian collusion designed to not merely destroy Trump but to protect Hillary Clinton. After all, wasn't it her campaign that allegedly paid for the Steele Dossier that kicked this off?

Mark Krikorian is a nationally recognized expert on immigration issues serving as the Executive Director of Center for Immigration Studies. They are an independent, non-partisan research organization examining and critiquing the impact of immigration on the United States. Jim opened up the program with a news item from BizPac Review. They reported that immigration agents arrested a 52 year old illegal migrant accused of storing and abusing the corpse of an Illinois woman on his property months after she died from a drug overdose. Day after day we continue to hear of illegal immigrant crimes, yet despite the fact that ICE agents are doing their job protecting citizens from such individuals, according to DHS, ICE enforcement officers are facing an 830% increase in assaults against themselves. In addition, there are mayors and governors actively opposing the actions of ICE agents, with their efforts clearly showing their priority of those here illegally versus the safety and security of U.S. citizens. This edition of Crosstalk is an important one as it will help you understand why the Trump administration is executing immigration enforcement the way they are. You'll also begin to understand why so many people are against such steps, in spite of the crimes caused by some illegal immigrants.
