Daily Headlines on contemporary issues that run counter to a Biblical Christian worldview.

Transgender male swimmer struggling against new competition after earning All-American honors as female… Iszak Henig, a transgender male, joined Yale’s men’s swimming team after finishing last year as an All-American female swimmer. Henig has taken hormones for eight months amid his transition, but the senior’s times are “about the same as they were at the end of last season,” he wrote in an op-ed piece for the New York Times on Thursday. Henig wrote that during a meet in November among 83 swimmers, he finished in 79th place.” – Fox News

Pro-Life Americans to CVS, Walgreens: ‘Do Not Turn Your Pharmacies into Abortion Businesses!’… As retail pharmacy giants CVS and Walgreens announced they plan to carry abortion pills — and may soon be joined by Rite Aid — thousands of Christians have signed a petition pleading with them not to facilitate the fastest-growing form of abortion, which also inflicts the greatest harms on women.- Washington Stand

Birth control ruling to see fresh scrutiny at Texas Capitol… Starting Tuesday, access to reproductive health care is likely to command fresh scrutiny before the Republican-controlled Texas Capitol, where new restrictions are on the table in the first session since a stringent statewide abortion ban took effect.” – AP News

Israel Rebukes U.N., Palestinian Authority for Emergency Session on Temple Mount… Last week, the United Nations Security Council met in an emergency session following the visit of a prominent minister in Benjamin Netanyahu’s new government to Jerusalem’s Temple Mount. Israeli leaders claim the emergency meeting was another attempt launched by Palestinians to blame Israel for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.   Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir sparked the meeting when he spent 13 minutes on the Temple Mount, the first visit by an Israeli minister in almost five years. During the emergency U.N. session in New York, a parade of nations, including the United States, criticized Israel for the visit.” – CBN News

“Damar Hamlin’s recovery shows ‘we’re seeing God answer prayer in real time’…Faith and family were key to our nation’s founding and still are our way forward… But why did an increasingly secular country, where faith and prayer are routinely derided and mocked, suddenly turn its collective eyes upward to God? What’s going on?… Cynics might chalk this week up to raw emotion, but I think something much deeper and more important is going on. Even though many may not be able to articulate it, there’s a spiritual hunger in America – and it manifests in a variety of ways, but especially in times of crisis.” – Fox News
