WEEKLY NEWS SUMMARY - JUNE 11, 2025

In this week's Intersect, read about:


Just As Mark And Paul Found Reconciliation, So Too Will Trump And Elon

OFFICIAL STATEMENT from Million Voices’ John Graves, shared Friday, June 6. Read more here.

THINK.

  • I’ve been in prayer all day as tensions rise in the dispute between President Trump and Elon Musk. This moment weighs heavily on me—not just because of what is happening now, but because it echoes the decades of frustration I’ve felt since the days of Ross Perot.
  • The ever-increasing national debt is not just an economic issue; it is biblical bondage, and it threatens the future of our country.
  • I clearly see both sides of this moment.
  • For years, I’ve worked to awaken the Church—to engage the culture and influence it for good. At the same time, I see how incredibly difficult it remains, even now, for President Trump to pass meaningful reform.
  • The “Big Beautiful Bill” passed the House by a 215–214 vote—a one-vote margin. That alone reveals how fiercely change is resisted, even when the need is urgent.
  • So, where do we go from here?
  • We begin with prayer, seeking God’s direction for this hour. And we move toward reconciliation, even in the face of sharp disagreement.
  • Just as Paul and Mark had their dispute, they also found reconciliation. So must we.

PRAY.

Dear Heavenly Father, though we already know You have placed your calming hand on the tensions between these great men, we know that more turmoil is to be expected in the weeks, months, and years ahead as we bring your Biblical Worldview and true freedom back to our great. As you brought our forefathers here to build the new world, we ask You guide in reshaping the cultural landscape around us in Your image. With love and in all peace, Amen.

ACT.

We must remember that the world was created in chaos, and Satan thrives in chaos, death, destruction, and deception. But God brings order. We are made in His image, and He has commissioned us to bring order into chaos. That is what we must proclaim and pray over this situation. This is not about choosing one side over another. It’s about acknowledging that both perspectives bring something important to the table. President Trump is pressing for necessary, practical reforms. Elon Musk, meanwhile, is right to sound the alarm about unsustainable debt. Both concerns are valid and urgent. Debt is bondage in the short term and national destruction in the long term.


EXCLUSIVE: ‘My Name Is … & I’m A Christian’ Trend Goes Viral On Social Media In Backlash To Pride Month

A post from Christian media influencer Jon Root went viral in early June after men realized how important it is to stand up for Biblical marriage in June. Read more at Million Voices.

THINK.

  • “My name is Jon & I’m a Christian,” Root wrote on social media, along with a photograph of him and his wife. “This month I’ll be celebrating & affirming marriage as it was designed to be by God; between one man and one woman.”
  • Root shared an image of him and his wife under the caption, prompting so many others to do the same. The post received more than 600 reposts (at the time of writing), and is continuing to trend online as more and more men follow Root’s lead.
  • “My heart behind my post to get Christians to proudly proclaim their faith in Jesus Christ, while affirming God’s design for marriage, is to combat a month filled with anti-God propaganda. Marriage was created and established and defined by God. We don’t get to redefine it. Biological sex was defined by God and he knit us in our mother’s wounds. We don’t get to decide what biological sex we are.
  • “Pride month is something that unfortunately has been accepted by those on the political right, left, and center. It’s important to give people the truth, which the Bible says, will set them free. So many people are caught up in sexual sin and finding their identity in their sexuality – that’s incredibly sad,” Root told Million Voices in an exclusive comment.

PRAY.

Dear God, we are so grateful for all You are doing to bring Your light and purpose back to our homeland. For so long we lay in darkness, wondering if our new normal would be persecution, brutality, our faith and rights gradually stripped away in a test we know we will all pass for Your Glory. Now we know that if we use our voice, there is truly nothing we cannot accomplish with you in our hearts, minds, and souls. Please continue to guide us ensuring all our actions accomplish your Glory. Amen.

ACT.

‘Separation Of Church And State Is A Lie’: Legal Precedent Collapses Bringing Religious Freedom To US

Have you heard the good news that the Ten Commandments will soon be displayed across classrooms in multiple states? Many people think these legislations fly in the face of laws written to separate church and state, but there are no laws — and never have been — that separate the church and public spaces in America. Read more at Million Voices.

THINK.

  • Lakepointe Church Pastor Josh Howerton shared a clip on social media in early May describing the fallacy that America ever separated church and state, noting that “separation of church and state is a lie,” and many people struggle to understand this concept.
  • The anti-faith lobbies within lawmaking have done an amazing job convincing at least four generations of Americans that they cannot practice their faith in the spaces their taxes fund.
  • Libraries, schools, universities, so many different public spaces are now in for a rude awakening: not only is the short-held precedent that allowed us to remove Christ from our classrooms falling apart at the federal level, but states are taking serious action to educate and implement His word in public spaces.
  • In June 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court voted 6-to-3 in favor of high school football coach Joseph Kennedy’s right to pray at the 5-yard line at the end of each game. The decision overturned a short-held legal precedent regarding the constitutionality of public religious displays. It’s believed the Ten Commandments were a prominent part of American education for almost three centuries prior to 1980, when the prior legal precedent was held against it.

PRAY.

Dear Father God, help us in guiding ourselves and everyone around us in understanding that we have been lied to. Like so many, we believed the lies, the propaganda designed to turn us away from You in our public spaces. Thank You for reclaiming these places for us, and show us how to use this newly rediscovered freedom to bring Your Word to the world. That is truly our only purpose here, Lord, and we Thank You for choosing us for this role. Amen.

ACT.

Now you know that “separation of church and state” is a lie, what are you going to do about it? We recommend starting small: tell your church, tell your congregation, tell your friends and family of this great news. We have two huge campaigns we’re working on to bring posters of the Ten Commandments to Texas and Arkansas classrooms as soon as August 1, 2025. Will you join us in this mission?


Ten Commandments Bill Signed Into Law; Do You Want Religious Education In Your State?

Arkansas Republican Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders signed a slew of bills into law in April, many of which are aimed at reshaping education to cut out potential corruption, while mandating Christ return to our children’s curricula. Read more on Poll2Action and Use Your Voice today!

THINK.

  • Students from grades six through 12 will be taught, without any limitation, the identity of our Creator, God, as viewed by the Founding Fathers.
  • Throughout these teachings, children will learn about the religious and moral beliefs our nation was founded upon. One of these bills, SB 433, mandates the display of the National Motto and the Ten Commandments in every classroom throughout the state.
  • “From the state to the federal level all throughout our history, it is a historical reference point or historical document that has basic things like you shall not kill, steal, commit adultery, those basic foundations of life that is good for everybody to keep front of mind so that we are hopefully living good lives,” Arkansas Senator Jim Dodson said of the bill, according to KATV.
  • The U.S. Supreme court has held repeatedly throughout history that not everything is an establishment of religion. Going back to a more strict scrutiny standard of the interpretation of the constitution with our current supreme court so I don’t think this is a violation.

PRAY.

Dear God, please help us in lifting the shadows in our understanding of our freedoms. For too long we have watched Your Word be stripped from our day-to-day life. Help us in ensuring every man, woman, and child in this great country knows You and knows how much You love us. In all Glory, forever, Amen.
