Welcome to another crazy week! Gas is flirting with $7 a gallon while world leaders are playing 48-hour chicken. And you’re here for the unfiltered truth and a steady reminder that even while missiles rain, our King still reigns.

Let’s go!

The Bullets

  • Trump’s deadline expires. President issues final warning after the Strait of Hormuz stays blocked with no signs of Iranian compliance, raising fears of escalated U.S. military action including strikes on Iranian power plants.

  • Oil rockets past $120. Global markets are in panic mode as Iranian retaliation hits Gulf tankers following recent U.S. strikes on Iranian vessels, driving gas prices toward $7 a gallon in many parts of the country.

  • AI breakthrough warning. Morgan Stanley predicts a transformative AI leap is coming in the first half of 2026 that could reshape entire industries faster than most governments and companies are remotely prepared for.

  • Supreme Court backs preacher. The U.S. Supreme Court unanimously revived a lawsuit from an evangelical street preacher arrested in Mississippi, delivering a major win for free speech and religious liberty rights.

  • Christians turning to AI for advice. A new Barna study reveals that nearly 1 in 3 American Christians now say spiritual advice from AI is as trustworthy as advice from their pastor.

400 dunks for Jesus!

They baptized 400 people in one weekend.
What? Where?
Bethlehem Church in Georgia
They planned for 13 baptisms
Then the Holy Spirit showed up and 387 more jumped in.
Wow… our church doesn't even have that many people.
People waited hours just to get dunked.
That’s actually beautiful
Wait, have you been baptized yet?
Not yet, been thinking about it.
What’s stopping you?
I don’t know
Just waiting for the right time I guess.
What if obedience is the right time?
You might be right.

Spiritual Perspective

Deadlines expire. Prices soar. Missiles fly.

But the God who spoke the universe into existence remains in control, and nothing that happens happens outside of His ultimate orchestration.
