| | On Sunday, churches across the nation celebrated Halloween as a "harmless" holiday that can create a "fun" environment focused on costumes, candy, and celebratory festivities. Other churches, however, warned their congregants about its "pagan" ties and hosted alternate events. A 2015 survey found that 23% of Christians in the U.S. opt out of the holiday due to reasons such as its "pagan" roots. |

| | The U.S. Supreme Court has vacated a lower court ruling against multiple religious employers seeking an exemption to a New York regulation requiring employers to provide healthcare plans that include coverage of medically necessary abortions. The plaintiffs contend that New York holds too narrow of a definition on what constitutes a religious employer and unlawfully restricts who can receive an exemption. |

| | A major Christian advocacy group in the U.K. has launched a prayer campaign in response to looming government legislation aimed at banning what is derisively referred to as "conversion therapy." If such as ban goes into effect, it might also prohibit clergy from praying for people struggling with same-sex attraction. |

| | Many believers are anxious for Jesus' return and, in the natural, some feel God is postponing or delaying His return, despite knowing that scriptures, such as 2 Peter 3, teach that God is not slow, but is patient, not wanting anyone to perish, said Jeff Kinley and Todd Hampson of the "Prophecy Pros Podcast." Kinley and Hampson emphasize that Jesus hasn't yet returned because the Lord is giving "humanity a chance to repent before He returns." |

| | We have entered a new age in which we can go into the quietness of our rooms and slip into whatever identity we desire—virtually. Artificial intelligence is fast becoming a "normal" part of our lives, and in ways we often don't even notice until after it's happened.
Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, and other social platforms are all using artificial intelligence (AI) to discover more about you and your family, and even to gain control of certain aspects of your life. Did you also know that many of the products you purchase use AI to learn more about you? They can track where you are, what you're doing, even who you're with.
Best-selling author Wallace Henley's new book, Who Will Rule the Coming 'Gods'?, offers groundbreaking spiritual insight into these emerging AI technologies. This is a "must read" book, not only for church and business leaders, but for all of us who are fast becoming dependent on AI, robots, and other forms of advanced technology.
The existential crisis of our age is how technology, specifically AI and robots, is eclipsing our reverence for the transcendence of God. In the rush to create human-helping AI, technologists are making machines that may eventually become our masters. Henley's new book exposed how some people are already worshiping at the feet of the great god of AI, just as the ancient Philistines once bowed before statues of the idol Dagon.
In this compelling and groundbreaking book, Henley shares about the impending moral and ethical choices we will all soon need to make, as believers in Christ, to hold AI and it's creators accountable to the true God. Otherwise our world will secede into peril. Rave reviews are rolling in for Henley's new book, from both religious and scientific leaders.
"This book lays out a comprehensive description of the future world that our godless technological and enormously rich elites envision. But what should be the response of the God-fearing people? That is the important message of this book." -Otis Graf, PhD, Aerospace Engineering, NASA Apollo 8 Moon Project, and the Space Shuttle
"A compelling look at a dystopic future controlled by Artificial Intelligence that has transcended above mankind as an all-powerful, all-knowing, and all-present "god". Wallace Henley examines how technology has changed our culture's view of God by providing us fingertip access to all the known information in history through our phones and computers. It's not a stretch of the imagination to see how the journey outlined in this book will result in future AI advancements and technological evolution that will rival and eclipse mankind's relationship with the One True Living God." -Keith Carmichael, Associate Pastor, Second Baptist Church, Houston, Former Captain in USAF and NASA Space Station Design Team
"This book invites readers into a critical conversation surrounding the realities of artificial intelligence, humanity, and godhood. Excellent read!" -Rachel Leong, Former White House Aide, Legislative Aide, The United States Senate Henley's book is a clarion call for believers in Christ to wake up and urge our world to stop letting technology replace our one true God. It's available now on Amazon.com. |
