Good evening, and welcome to #ourCOG Daily Brief. We begin tonight with news from the Church of God. A new marker has been unveiled at the Barney Creek site, marking a significant event in the Church’s history. Additionally, a Church Planting Conference is underway, led by the Ministry of Evangelism, aiming to expand the Church’s reach. Furthering digital engagement, the Church has launched ‘MY Faith Assistant,’ offering instant Bible-based answers, and a new book, ‘The EASY Bible Study Method,’ is empowering believers with accessible scripture study tools. Finally, the recent Caribbean Assembly convened in Trinidad and Tobago, strengthening regional connections.

Turning to video content, we have a double feature of “Rebuild IV,” followed by a powerful message from Perry Stone on “The Rapture and the Law of First Fruits,” Jentezen Franklin’s encouraging talk, “Choose Life For You And Your Children,” and a live recording from the Global Prayer Center. These videos offer spiritual encouragement and insightful perspectives on timely topics.

Beyond the Church, the White House issued a Proclamation on ‘Captive Nations Week 2025.’ In secular news, the story of an actor’s bold stand for faith resulting in Hollywood blacklisting continues to gain traction. The Space Force hymn, “Creator of the Universe,” is also featured in a recent article.

An article from Church Answers explores the concerning trend of apathy within American churches and offers “Four Ways to Shift Church Culture from Apathy to Expectation of Growth.” The article highlights the urgent need for renewed evangelism and outlines practical steps for revitalizing congregations.

Finally, Now The End Begins offers a compelling podcast, “NTEB PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: The AI Revolution,” which warns about the dangers of artificial intelligence and its potential connection to end-times prophecies.
