16 GLAD TIDINGS APRIL 2026 “We haven’t connected our AI to the internet,” the Logos executive said. “It’s locked down to the Bible and trusted scholarship. I call it AI with guardrails.” “We want people to know, ‘This is what God’s Word says,’ not just what an algorithm thinks they want to hear,” he added. Lindsey said he was encouraged by the conversations he had with the Seattle players when he shared the new Logos technology with them. Many of the athletes, he recalled, asked questions ranging from the Nephilim referenced in the book of Genesis to what the Bible teaches about raising children. What he saw in the Seattle locker room seems to be fairly widespread in the sports world. Several high-profile NFL stars, like Kansas City Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes, San Francisco 49ers’ Brock Purdy, Philadelphia Eagles’ Jalen Hurts, and the Patriots’ Drake Maye, are professing Christians who frequently speak out about their faith in God. “You think about how popular and well-known quarterbacks are and to see young people, you know, their idol, if you will, their sports person, talking about their love of Jesus — that is so encouraging to young people to be that bold,” said Lindsey. He later added, “Every time there’s a mic in their mouth, it’s just awesome to see them giving glory to God.” All of this comes as Bible reading is spiking across the U.S., according to data from Barna, especially among Millennials and Gen Zers. However, research also shows a shrinking number of Americans strongly affirm the authority of Scripture. Much of that discrepancy, Lindsey said, is tied to biblical literacy. While more people are reading the Bible, they aren’t truly studying its tenets — and that’s key. The “fear” Lindsey pinpointed is that people are reading Scripture, struggling to understand it, and going to poor sources — like Google and ChatGPT — for answers. “That’s a dangerous place to be asking theological questions,” he said, urging people to go to trusted people or use tools like Logos. “God is truth. He is not afraid of any question anybody has. The problem is they go somewhere else for the answer. … And then many get shipwrecked, they get led down a road of just nonsense.” He added, “I’ve been walking with Jesus for 30 years. I still have tons of questions, you know. But that’s the great thing about the Bible, right? You’re never going to outgrow Jesus.” u Permission Granted Christian Broadcasting Network SEAHAWKS - Con’t ... He makes me to walk and make [spiritual] progress upon my high places [of trouble, suffering or responsibility]. Habakkuk 3:17-19 (AMP) Rejoicing will enable us to make progress in difficult times. JOY IS A SECRET OF FAITH AND ENDURANCE. James 1:2 says, “Count it all joy…when troubles come.” This must be why Job laughed at destruction and trouble (Job 5:22). Of course, some people may think you are crazy, but you have found the secret to survival and success. Joy is connected to: God’s presence (Psalm 16:11); God’s strength (Neh. 8:10); God’s salvation (Isaiah 12:3); the Holy Ghost (Acts 13:52, Rom.14:17); the anointing– the oil of joy (Heb.1:9); God’s medicine (Prov. 17:22); God’s Word (Jeremiah 15:16, Psalm 119:162); prosperity (2 Cor. 9:6-19, Psalm 105:37-45). Look at all the blessings of God that are connected to joy. It seems that if Satan can steal our joy then he can damage a lot of other things in our lives. Joy and rejoicing are choices we make daily. It is clear that God did not create us to be miserable. He created us in Christ to enjoy life and have dominion. Joy is laughing triumphantly.

It seems far reaching. If not, how can any of us be like Christ? He was content to wait thirty years for a ministry that only lasted some three and a half years. In reality, He waited over 4000 years for that ministry. That same ended in a vicious and unjust death. Yet, He knew what the future held. He knew without such, we could never be reconciled to the Father. One more thing this kid said in the video: grumbling/discontentment mean we do not think God is doing it right. What a statement! To be discontented with what we have, is exactly that. I do not pretend to be content in whatever circumstances I am. God help us! Our godliness may be useless without Your empowering us with contentment. Cause us to see how blessed we really are. Turn our hearts into praise for Who You are. Blessed be the Name of the Lord! Teach us to exult in our Lord, even if there were no food to sustain us. Help us un-learn what our society has embedded in us, only to re-learn of Your Truth. Do not allow me to be caught by the doctrines of man, or of devils. Only by Your Pure Unadulterated Truth. I want to be content in every area of my life. After all, YOU ARE ALL THAT MATTERS!

Around the same time, Comfort also experienced a balloon coming into his backyard that had an American flag on it. “It was just strange,” he said. “This was way down and under in New Zealand. So I believe in the miraculous.” Comfort said he’s not particularly concerned, though, when God doesn’t do what we want on our timetable, noting the Lord isn’t a “divine butler” who must respond to our whims. Ultimately, he said, people must trust God, even when it doesn’t make sense. While much of the focus in life is on grand miracles, Comfort reminded Christians that Christ’s death, resurrection — and decision to save humanity is the greatest miracle of all. “[God] transformed me from someone who was drinking iniquity like water, loving darkness, hating the light, eyes full of adultery like every other red-blooded guy,” Comfort said. “He transformed me and caused me to love righteousness to a point where it consumed me for the last 50something years to do God’s will.” He continued, “Nothing else matters to me. I was born again, given a new heart and new desires. God says, ‘I’ll take your heart and I’ll cause you to walk in my statutes.’ He took me out of darkness into light, out of death into life. And so, because I’m a brand new person, that’s … how I know that Jesus is real and true. I don’t need a miracle because I’ve had my own personal miracle.” u RAY COMFORT - Con’t
