According to the World Population Review, there are approximately 2 billion children in the world ranging in age from 0-14. That's one-quarter of the world's population. --Sadly, children today are in the cross-hairs of efforts like the trans agenda and their admitted grooming and indoctrination. They're also being affected by broadcast and streaming TV, corporate America, social media, the educational system and other efforts.--All of these things magnify the need to reach children with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Joining Crosstalk to discuss one such effort was Fred Pry, Vice President of Administration for Child Evangelism Fellowship -CEF-.--After sharing some background on CEF, Fred described how a Supreme Court ruling now allows for CEF Good News Clubs to have equal access-equal treatment and take these clubs into the public schools. --The result is that this past school year there have been over 3,000 Good News clubs that have operated with over half a million children involved. This is important because many of these children don't attend church anywhere. --Fred discussed the impact of Satan clubs, CEF summer ministry camps-clubs, how the five-day clubs operate, how you can host a five-day club in your garage or backyard, the incredible worldwide emphasis of CEF and much more.

Children today are being bombarded by the trans agenda. Some may use terms such as -indoctrination- or -grooming- to describe it and that's exactly what's taking place as an audio clip played by Jim proves. This grooming-indoctrination is happening in multiple ways and the guest on this broadcast describes these influences.--For this subject Crosstalk welcomed Rebecca Terrell. Rebecca is senior editor and regular contributor to the New American. In the current issue of The New American Rebecca is author of the cover story, -Defending Children Against the Trans Agenda.---Rebecca believes that our entire culture and nation is at stake. The upcoming generation of children and teens is being brainwashed and it's not only affecting us morally, it's also affecting the U.S. birth rate which has been in steep decline for many years. This brainwashing is happening to young people through school curriculum, media-entertainment, technology, corporate America, bans on conversion therapy and more.--Get the latest information on this topic, and hear what listeners had to say, when you review this edition of Crosstalk.

We are witnessing a world struggle for domination and control of the population, land, energy and even your health. Right now, the World Health Assembly is meeting in Geneva, Switzerland, to finalize a vote on a pandemic treaty. There's also the struggle among nations as to who will-will not support Israel and the Jewish people. Then there's the current political struggle and the struggle over border control in America. Where is this leading and what might this mean for evangelical Christians-- --Returning to Crosstalk to answer these questions was Gary Kah. Gary is founder and director of Hope for the World. He's editor of Hope for the World Update, an author and former Europe - Middle East Trade Specialist for the Indiana State Government.--Gary began by describing the timeline of the pandemic treaty being discussed by the WHO, a treaty that's been in the making for a few years. It's being backed by the Biden administration. In order to avert any resistance from Congress, they've been referring to this as an accord. That way they can say that the Senate doesn't need to ratify it since it's not really a treaty. --If this treaty passes, the WHO would be given incredible power and it could be used to force what Gary described as -draconian measures- on the population of America when the next health crisis takes place. This means Americans could see restrictions in regard to speech, privacy, travel, choice of medical care and informed consent. In other words if passed, the WHO would move from being an advisory body to a global authority as it pertains to public health.

Brad Mattes is president of Life Issues Institute which was founded in 1991 to serve the educational needs of the pro-life movement. Brad is the host of Life Issues, a daily radio commentary, the weekly Straight Talk on Life Issues and has produced numerous radio specials standing for life--What used to be called euthanasia evolved to become physician assisted suicide, mercy killing, and death with dignity. The newest attempt to soften this killing procedure is use of the phrase, medical aid in dying.--This program centered on legislation being drafted for the federal funding of assisted suicide. HR-8137 is legislation to provide exceptions to the restrictions described in the Assisted Suicide Funding Restriction Act of 1997. That legislation was designed to prohibit taxpayer funding for euthanasia, assisted suicide or anything associated with those activities. --Now there's an attempt to redefine medical aid in dying to not include assisted suicide, euthanasia or mercy killing. Brad believes this is an attempt to get control of the purse strings of Medicaid and Medicare. Once they have that control, they'll have the federal funding necessary to kill many more people.

It's the fact that biblical prophecy will be fulfilled. Gary noted that we forget that such prophecy is fulfilled incrementally over time. So what exactly are we seeing at the present time as it pertains to this -big picture--- It's the idea that a well-funded hatred is showing toward Israel as people chant things like, -From the river to the sea.- Interestingly, many of those protesting have no historical frame of reference for such activity.--Don't miss this discussion as you'll hear Dr. Frazier comment on points such as- --Are we headed toward a Russian led Islamic invasion of Israel-- What part will Iran have in this---How critical to this discussion is Isaiah 17-1 that describes the destruction of Damascus---Will every single nation, including the U.S., turn against Israel---What impact should everything that's happening have on us as believers today----These and other questions are answered, and listeners present their views as well, on this edition of Crosstalk.
