I was in Jerusalem talking with Israeli Special Patrol Unit (YASAM) officers. They’d be the equivalent of our SWAT in the US. It was a great conversation. Before I left from the US, City of Mobile police officer Trey Powell asked me to try to get an Israeli police patch for him. I bought him a hat from a shop…and kept moving with a full schedule and kind of gave up on the idea that I would get a patch.

Seeing strands of antisemitism creep into parts of the Christian church. Social media posts, comments, even sermons that twist Scripture to justify hatred toward Jewish people. Friends, let me say this as plainly as I can: Antisemitism is completely incompatible with following Jesus. Period.

Pressured like no other. Equipped like no other. Targeted by ideologies via algorithms, social media, influencers, and a cultural agenda. Yet, there is a remnant within this rising generation that loves Jesus, reads the Bible, seeks His face, and is empowered by the Holy Spirit. Stir up the gift of God within you, young brothers and sisters. Step forward with boldness and in the power of the Holy Spirit. You were raised up for this moment. And, you are not alone.

If you're going through a storm right now—maybe a health crisis, financial hardship, family breakdown, or just a season where everything feels like it's falling apart—I want you to know something upfront: you can survive this shipwreck. And not only survive, but come out stronger, with a testimony that points people to Jesus.

Chances are you've faced—or are facing—a wilderness season in your life. Maybe you're heading into a storm, right in the thick of one, or finally seeing the light as you come out the other side. Whatever it is, I want you to know: there's wisdom for you here. And a lot of it comes down to one simple truth—your perspective is everything.
