    Help Persecuted Christians TODAY: https://csi-usa.org/quickstart/ Christian Solidarity International On today's Quick Start podcast: NEWS: The Supreme Court has struck down President Trump's executive order restricting birthright citizenship in a 6-3 decision. The Supreme Court has ruled that states can continue banning biological men and boys from competing on girls' and women's school sports teams. In a 6-3 decision, the justices upheld laws in Idaho and West Virginia, finding they don't violate the Constitution. A Mississippi pastor is opening up after recently preaching through the entire Bible—from Genesis to Revelation—in just 96 hours. FOCUS: Cheers broke out recently in Texas after some bizarre comments were made about going to hell. MAIN THING: The U.S. Supreme Court has upheld state laws banning transgender athletes from competing on girls' and women's school sports teams, ruling that the restrictions are constitutional and do not violate Title IX.

    Ex-Tarot Card Reader Flees Occult, Texas Puts Bibles in Schools, the Truth on Angels and Demons
    Jun 30 2026
    Help Persecuted Christians TODAY: https://csi-usa.org/quickstart/ Christian Solidarity International On today's Quick Start podcast: NEWS: Texas is moving to put the Bible back into the classroom—not as religious instruction, but as literature and history. The State Board of Education has approved a Bible-infused reading list for public schools beginning in 2030. One of America's best-known Christian seminaries has been removed from the United Methodist Church's list of approved schools. The denomination decided to delist Asbury Theological Seminary after the school reaffirmed its biblical belief that marriage is between one man and one woman. On June 29, Christians around the world marked the Day of the Christian Martyr, honoring believers who gave their lives rather than deny Jesus Christ. FOCUS: A famous TikToker is abandoning the occult for Jesus. MAIN THING: What do Americans believe about angels, demons, and the supernatural? That was a question the American Bible Society (ABS) recently asked US citizens, and it yielded some fascinating results. Dr. John Plake, editor-in-chief of the State of the Bible series and chief innovation officer at ABS, told CBN News that a majority of Americans believe in spiritual beings. He joins me for today’s main thing.

    Major Iran Development, Dangerous Heat, Religious Liberty Alarm, John 8:32
    Jun 29 2026
    Help Persecuted Christians TODAY: https://csi-usa.org/quickstart/ Christian Solidarity International On today's Quick Start podcast: NEWS: A potentially significant development in the Middle East amid the ongoing conflict between the U.S. and Iran. After a weekend of escalating violence, Washington and Tehran have reportedly agreed to halt military strikes for now. Millions of Americans are bracing for dangerous heat as we head toward the Fourth of July weekend. Forecasters say the Midwest will feel it first, before the heat and humidity push into the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast by midweek. A major report on religious liberty is now in President Trump's hands. After a yearlong investigation, the White House Religious Liberty Commission delivered its final findings, warning that threats to religious freedom are growing in America. FOCUS: In Nigeria, the mass murder of Christians by militant Muslims continues. There are new reports that Fulani militants killed as many as 22 people in the town of Mushere in the Plateau State. An Israeli survivor of Hamas's barbaric October 7 massacre shared her testimony before the UN. However, it was the reaction, or, more accurately, the disturbing lack of reaction, from the UN's special official on violence against women that has gone viral. CBN’s Raj Nair and Tré Goins-Phillips have the story.
