🚨 OLYMPIAN RYAN LOCHTE: "We started watching these people getting baptized, and something came into me, something so pure."
"I'm going to start crying. It felt so real watching these people get baptized."
"And I asked [my girlfriend], 'What is this?'"
She said, "They're washing away their sins. They're getting a fresh start publicly."
"And I was like, 'Honey, I want that.'"
"And so, I got baptized. I washed away my sins, and trust me, I had a lot!"
"... To put your life in front of God and give it to God has changed everything for me."
"I'm finding who I am."
"I am being a better father, a better person, and I just love the person that I've become now, and I owe it to God."

Chuck Norris has gone to be with the Lord. And to say Chuck was a legend is the understatement of the century.
Chuck was a world karate champion who transitioned into acting and became one of the most recognizable faces on the planet. He sparred with Bruce Lee. He trained other actors, including the great Steve McQueen. He went on to become a full-blown cultural phenomenon — the subject of thousands of internet “Chuck Norris facts” that made an entire generation laugh.
But here’s what I loved most about Chuck: the man behind the legend was always quick to point beyond himself. He never let the fame become the point.
He said it best himself: “Real men do live for Christ. It is important to make your peace with Christ while the opportunity exists. Life is so fragile that you never know when it’s going to be over.”
On a personal note, Chuck was gracious enough to endorse the spiritual biography I wrote about his friend Steve McQueen. That meant a lot to me. I had the privilege of meeting him once years ago— and yes, I absolutely made sure we got a photo together. I mean, come on. It’s Chuck Norris.
He was a warrior in every sense of the word — and now he’s home. He will be greatly missed.
"God, if You're real... take this hate I have for myself. I can't live like this anymore."
One desperate prayer sparked a radical turnaround—from self-loathing, drug temptation, and despair to weight lifted, Holy Spirit flooding in, nightmares gone, and unspeakable joy.
He hit rock bottom: no job, mom silent, hating the mirror. Prayed hard for forgiveness and eyes opened to God's love. Then 1 Timothy 1:13 hit: "I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief."
Life transformed instantly—Bible alive, joy unspeakable.

There are only two times in the Bible where we read that Jesus was amazed. The first was at the great faith of a Roman centurion who asked Him to simply speak the word and his servant would be healed. This was a man who was not raised on Scripture—quite the opposite. Yet somehow he understood authority. He believed that if Jesus just said the word, it would be done. And Jesus was amazed at his simple, confident, powerful faith.
The second time Jesus was amazed was at the unbelief of the people in His own hometown of Nazareth when He declared Himself to be the Messiah. The contrast is striking—faith from a pagan soldier, unbelief from those who knew the Scriptures.

The Christian Super Bowl Ad They SHOULD Have Made
A group known as 'He Gets Us' released an advert during the Super Bowl which, whilst perhaps well intentioned, failed to convey anything of the gospel to the hundreds of millions who saw it.
Here's my take on what they should have done.

The only bright spot at the Grammys last night was @JellyRoll615, who gave a clear testimony of how the power of God—the Word of God—transformed his life. Thank you Jelly Roll for being brave and taking a stand in front of this audience and the world. You’re absolutely right—Jesus Christ is for everybody! https://t.co/tWOyFYiw2x
Egypt: A Coptic Christian has been sentenced to five years in prison – with hard labor – for his faith.
Dr. Augustinos Samaan, 37, holds a PhD in comparative religion and engaged in Christian apologetics.
At one point, he spoke about anti-Christian incitement - for this he was arrested under a fraudulent charge of blasphemy.
The legal proceedings appear to have been a sham.
His defense counsel and family arrived at court only to discover he had already been sentenced.
Even now, his defense attorney has never received a case file – and the case is over!
Augustinos has reportedly been assaulted in jail – he needs immediate help and must be released.
Pray for Augustinos, his family and all Coptic Christians in Egypt.

During those dark years, I consistently experienced magic working and demonic entities influencing the world in ways I couldn't dismiss.
