Get ready for the debut of “Headlines,” a fun and thought-provoking twist for Free-Text First Fridays. In this episode, the guest pastor faces the challenge of guessing which headline is real and which ones are the host’s creations. Each round sparks deeper conversations about pressing issues in today’s news and how the Bible offers guidance on them. This episode’s topics include environmentalism, mental health, artificial intelligence, and extraterrestrial life.

The Rev. John Shank, pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church in Edwardsville, IL, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to play the headlines quiz and discuss the news from a biblical perspective.
