Juan Jimenez... ‘War knows no religion’: Gaza’s oldest church shelters Muslims, Christians When an Israeli air raid destroyed Walaa Sobeh’s house and much of her neighbourhood, the Palestinian Muslim sought shelter in Gaza’s oldest church. At the Church of Saint Porphyrius, she found not just sanctuary, but a feeling of belonging to “one family”... Bombed Gaza hospital formerly led by Southern Baptists The Gaza City hospital that suffered a deadly blast Oct. 17 in the Israeli-Hamas war is formerly Southern Baptist, an International Mission Board spokesperson confirmed to Baptist Press.

New survey on college students’ gender, sexual orientation and religion
I know people will be surprised to hear this, but it’s rare for me to get my hands on some new data. I basically use two or three surveys for everything you see on this Substack and my social media. But last week was a very good one because I got

Indeed, he knew full well that his message was foolishness to Greeks and a stumbling block to Jews...
Putting the “home” back in homeschooling policy
On October 1st, a new, less invasive homeschooling law went into effect in my new home state of Ohio. Some, like me, breathed a sigh of relief and went on with our lives. This law is still more demanding than plenty of
other states, so it’s not like there’s suddenly a free-for-all.... Christians Cannot “Agree to Disagree” with Wolves As has been widely reported
