(Ray Fava – Evangelical Darb Web) The slow-to-arrive report on Mike Bickle has finally been released, in part, over a year after Bickle was removed from the International House of Prayer.

1 Therefore if there is any encouragement in Christ, if there is any consolation of love, if there is any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and compassion, 2 fulfill my joy, that you think the same way, by maintaining the same love, being united in spirit, thinking on one purpose, 3 doing nothing from selfish ambition or vain glory, but with humility of mind regarding one another as more important than yourselves, 4 not merely looking out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others. Philippians 2:1-4 (LSB) 
(Protestia) NYT bestselling author Megan Basham, perhaps best known for her reporting at The Daily Wire and her book ‘Shepherds for Sale: How Evangelical Leaders Traded the Truth for a Leftist Agenda,’ announced on X that she has been diagnosed with “stage three, advanced colorectal cancer.”
“Enter Russell Moore, a man who abandoned his post at the ERLC, because, get this, the Southern Baptist Convention wasn’t woke enough, only to take up residence at the thoroughly apostate Christianity Today, a publication that long ago exchanged theological fidelity for 30 pieces of leftist activism.”
Andrew McCabe: The FBI is in “utter disarray right now.” “This is a moment of terror for these people.”
“Here we are. Bethel Church, the great empire of counterfeit spirituality, is casting out one of its own for being… too much of a fraud? For taking things too far? For doing the exact same thing they all do, but with a little less finesse? It’s like watching a con man get banned from a casino—not for cheating, but for being too obvious about it.”
“DOGE representatives were working at Education Department headquarters Monday and seeking access to agency records…”
Here’s] the beauty of competing in a binary marketplace: You don’t have to be perfect. You can still make lots of mistakes. All that matters is that you’re better than the alternative. It’s like the old joke about two dudes hiking in the African savannah, when they’re suddenly chased by a lion. When the first guy starts sprinting, the second guy yells, “What are you doing?! You can’t outrun a lion!” “I don’t need to outrun the lion,” he replied. “I only need to outrun you.”
(Venessa Hunt – Clear Truth Media) Once a month, I host a group of women in my home. The purpose of this gathering is to bring together moms who are in different stages of motherhood because while it’s always great to spend time with your peers, there is something really special that happens when you spend time with people in another season of life. As we’ve been going through the book ‘Mama Bear Apologetics’ and discussing the various challenges of raising children in today’s culture, a theme continues to emerge. The moms who are younger than me (which is almost all of them) lament the fact that they feel completely overwhelmed by how many ideas and ideologies are cropping up both inside and outside the Church…. 
(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) Interim D.C. U.S. Attorney Edward R. Martin, Jr. has made a bold move, dismissing about 30 federal prosecutors involved in the Capitol riot cases. This decision, announced on Friday, signals a significant housecleaning of the top prosecutor’s office in Washington, D.C., as Martin gears up to purge partisans who weaponized the Justice Department against Joe Biden’s political enemies, including Trump, pro-life activists, and others.
(Mary Dowling) NBC finally ditched activist Chuck Todd. He was the infamous left-wing blatherskite of Meet the Press. He had low ratings. Todd said he’s leaving to start his own podcast. Another far-left reporter, Kristen Welker, has gradually taken over his audience and his spot in the anchor chair.
“The order also will reinstate the 1776 Commission that Trump created during his first term to promote patriotic education and counter lessons that divide Americans on race and slavery.”
“Christ-followers are indeed called to be faithful regardless of who is president. But Christians who donate to, promote, and vote for candidates who proudly assault the kingdom of God are undoubtedly complicit in that attack.”
(Kritina Wong – Breitbart) Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has informed former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff retired Army Gen. Mark Milley that he is revoking his personal security detail and suspending his security clearance, according to senior defense officials.

“As Colombian President Gustavo Petro found out, the new Trump administration isn’t playing games. Trump has learned a lot from his first term and isn’t tolerating insubordination in his second term.” 
“…Congressmen James Comer and Jim Jordan will continue to investigate Joe Biden, and both have publicly stated that they believe he took secretive payments. But Congress cannot prosecute the case; only the Justice Department can do that.”
“The prosecutors did almost nothing to Antifa and Black Lives Matter. Those self-described communist/anarchist groups killed people, burned down buildings, and attacked the police. They cost over $2 billion in property damage. At the time, the media reported that property damage was insignificant compared to the worthiness of their cause.”
(T.A. McMahon – Berean Call) As I look back over the decades since I started The Berean Call (TBC), there are three words that come to my mind: “Thank you, Jesus!”
(Clint Archer – The Cripplegate) Steve Lawson and I became friends during the process in which he was used by the Lord to convince me to be the pastor of the church he planted in Mobile, Alabama. He preached at my installation service and was a continued support and encouragement to me in the unique ministry of being a Calvinistic SBC church in the Deep South.
