Post Iran War: What Are the World’s Greatest Threats?
President Donald Trump announced Sunday evening that a memorandum of understanding (MOU) had been reached with Iran. It read:
The Deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran is now complete. Congratulations to all! I hereby fully authorize the toll free opening of the Strait of Hormuz, and, simultaneously herewith, authorize the immediate removal of the United States Naval blockade. Ships of the World, start your engines. Let the oil flow! President DONALD J. TRUMP.
The 14 point MOU was released today with 60 days of negotiations following. President Trump signed it on behalf of the USA on Wednesday at the Palace of Versailles in France.
With Iran War now behind us and gas prices beginning to fall, I’ve been thinking about the greatest threats that America and the world face during the summer of ’26.
Memorial Day 2026: The Bravest Boehme
Today is Memorial Day in America’s 250th year as a nation. Over one million men and women have given their lives defending the USA in thirteen major wars. Another four million died due to complications after battle.
My Uncle Dick (Boehme) gave his life for our country in flight combat–just seven months before WWII ended.
I can’t wait to meet him in heaven.
Six months ago, my brother gave me Dick’s silver star, some pictures, and his “Flight Record” book which he’d kept for many years. I created a special memorial shelf for them in my library. The meticulous “Flight Record” is the centerpiece, and contains his last entry–two days before his death.
I reprint Uncle Dick’s story each Memorial Day to honor his sacrifice.
He was the bravest Boehme.
The Permanent Victory of the Cross and Resurrection
Easter time is one of the most memorable weeks of year for me, from sun-rise services, to Easter 1974 in the Holy Land, to cross walks through my hometown for the past 33 years.
A ministry friend recently asked me if he could send my 2018 Easter blog to his list of 10,000 young pastors in America. I said I’d be honored–and decided to also share it again with you.
Easter is special, world-changing, cosmos altering.
It celebrates the permanent victory of Jesus’ death and resurrection.
