To read a quick recap of some of the latest news reports and other articles from The Baptist Paper this week, see below.

1. “For Christians, this comes back to looking at the entire cosmos and recognizing God made this for His glory. Every single adamant molecule testifies of the Creator’s glory,” said Albert Mohler, president of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.

3. On April 3, an American F-15E fighter jet was reportedly hit by incoming fire and crashed inside Iran. One of the two crew members was quickly rescued. What came next was “one of the most complex search-and-rescue efforts for the US Air Force in enemy territory in decades.”
