On today's Quick Start podcast:
- NEWS: A growing dispute between the FBI and the Pima County Sheriff’s Office is raising questions in the Nancy Guthrie investigation. Federal sources claim key DNA evidence was kept from the FBI crime lab in Quantico, while Sheriff Chris Nanos strongly denies blocking access and says investigators agreed to keep all samples together at one lab. Meanwhile, surveillance footage of a masked suspect has been released, more than 13,000 tips have poured in, and the reward has climbed to $100,000 as the urgent search continues.
- FOCUS STORY: Does modern archaeology confirm the Bible — or contradict it? For years, some scholars cast doubt on whether King David even existed. But a major discovery in northern Israel reshaped the debate. CBN’s Raj Nair travels to the Holy Land with Israeli tour guide Yoav Rotem to explore how archaeology is challenging skeptics and strengthening confidence in Scripture.
- MAIN THING: New images from Nigeria reveal the horrific reality facing Christians targeted in ongoing attacks. Advocates say the violence is systematic and underreported. Alex Barbir of Building Zion, recently back from Nigeria, explains why the persecution crisis is worse than many realize — and why believers there say they feel forgotten by the global community.
- LAST THING: Matthew 5:10-12 — “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”
