A new report from Axios says the US and Iran are getting close to a one-page Memorandum of Understanding that would bring an end to the warfare – but it may not succeed, and the fighting could resume; that comes as President Trump says the US is pausing its operations in the Strait of Hormuz, linking the move to talks with Iran, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio declares Operation Epic Fury is over; Rubio responds to a CBN News question about his hope for America at such a time as this; with antisemitism growing in the US, faith leaders and others come together on Capitol Hill this week to take a stand for Israel; the European Union was created to help Europe’s nations get richer, but instead, with its high taxes, heavy regulation and big welfare states, the EU and its citizens are falling further behind the US, as one expert tells CBN News that a return to Christianity would boost Europe’s economies; a look at the love story of one couple from Oral Roberts University that spans more than half a century; and hundreds turn out for public baptisms at the Baptize California event, at the location where the Jesus Revolution baptisms began in the early 1970s.
