The Gospel of Jesus Christ was shared several times over during the first-ever Pentagon Christmas worship service on Wednesday.

U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said, "It's a true story of a king who arrived not on the throne, but in a humble manger, became man, but yet lived perfectly. And all he asked of us is to believe, is to honor Him with who we are and what we do. And so we rejoice today in this place, at this time 2,000 years ago, grateful for this incredible republic, for a Savior."

And Evangelist Franklin Graham preached, "Jesus took our shame, and he died in our place, and he rose again. And this is why we celebrate... Christmas was not -- Jesus Christ isn't a babe in a manger -- He's living, He's alive..."

A Ten Commandments monument donated to Kentucky decades ago has been restored as a permanent fixture at the state Capitol grounds, First Liberty, a faith-based non-profit legal group reports.

The return of the granite monument to the Monument Park in Frankfort, Kentucky, comes after the passage of House Joint Resolution 15 (HJR-15) earlier this year, which directed the monument's return to public display.

Its return was previously blocked by a court order based on the now-defunct "Lemon test," Liberty Counsel explained in a press statement. Courts previously used the Lemon test as a way to determine if laws or practices violated the First Amendment clause that protects religious freedom while also prohibiting the government from establishing religion.

Israel carried out airstrikes on Thursday in southern and northeastern Lebanon as the deadline for Hezbollah to disarm looms. The Israeli military said that it targeted Hezbollah infrastructure and military sites. The U.S. has increased pressure on Lebanon to disarm Hezbollah in recent weeks.

President Donald Trump announced a massive package of arms sales to Taiwan valued at more than $10 billion, including medium-range missiles, howitzers and drones. The State Department announced the sales late Wednesday, angering China. If approved by Congress, it would be the largest-ever U.S. weapons package to Taiwan.

And FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino says he’ll resign from the bureau next month. The departure, which has been expected, would be among the highest-profile resignations of the second Trump administration.

Popular author Lee Strobel is preparing to once again explore the supernatural in his new film “The Case For Miracles,” hitting theaters Dec. 15-18.

Strobel told CBN News he believes Christmas is the perfect time to release a movie about God’s supernatural power.

“A lot of people who are spiritually curious become more curious around Christmas because all of this activity in the culture [is] focused on December the 25th,” he said. “And they begin to wonder, ‘What is this really all about? What does it really mean?’ And so forth.”

During a rare, primetime White House address to the American public on Wednesday, President Trump announced the distribution of bonus checks to military members to help ease financial pressures during the Christmas season. The checks, in the amount of $1,776, to correspond to the year 1776 when the United States was founded, "are already on the way," to 1.4 million service personnel.

The announcement was one of several economic issues the president addressed during the brief, 18-minute speech which began with him saying, "Good evening, America. 11 months ago I inherited a mess and I'm fixing it."

JERUSALEM, Israel – Egypt and Israel agreed to a huge natural gas deal on Wednesday that will hopefully calm strained relations after two years of war.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu approved the largest gas deal in Israel's history, paving the way for what is hoped to be better relations with Egypt and a trilateral meeting with the U.S.

"This deal with the American company Chevron has Israeli partners, and they will supply gas to Egypt," Netanyahu stated. "I approved the deal after ensuring our security and vital interests."

In Australia, meanwhile, the first victim of Sunday's anti-Semitic Hanukkah terror attack was laid to rest.

As authorities continue to investigate the deadly shooting at Brown University that has rocked the surrounding Rhode Island community and the nation, hundreds are honoring the life and faith of a student whose life was cut short – sophomore Ella Cook.

Cook, from Alabama, and Mukhammad Aziz Umurzokov, from Uzbekistan, were the only students killed during Saturday's shooting rampage. Nine others were injured.

In Cook's obituary, family members noted that she taught Bible studies and Sunday School and regularly worked with younger children.

"The qualities of Ella's personality and 'soul' that most touched others were, foremost, her Christian faith, and especially her faith in the Death and Resurrection of Christ. She really meant it! And she wanted to share the good news of the grace that she received from the Cross. Not only did her personal faith shine out like a bright Christmas star, but she loved others as real people, not as objects. Ella loved God with her whole heart and she loved people — with her whole heart," it reads.

Vanity Fair alleges that White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles aimed strong criticism at Attorney General Pam Bondi, saying she "totally whiffed" demands to release the Epstein files. She also criticized Elon Musk's dismantling of USAID and described Vice President JD Vance as a long-held conspiracy theorist.

Wiles and the White House have rejected the article's framing of the interview WIles gave.

"This is unfortunately another example of disingenuous reporting, where you have a reporter who took the Chief of Staff's words wildly out of context, did not include the context those conversations were had within," said White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt. "I think the most egregious part of this article was the bias of omission that was clearly present."

President Trump is declaring the Maduro Regime a foreign terrorist organization, ordering a blockade of all sanctioned oil tankers.

More than a dozen sanctioned tankers full of oil are currently in Venezuelan waters. The nation is now surrounded by a U.S. armada that President Trump said, "Will only get bigger."

The latest moves come after the U.S. seized a Venezuelan tanker suspected of illicitly shipping oil to Iran last week... https://cbn.com/news/politics/trump-orders-venezuela-blockade-white-house-battles-blowback-chief-staffs-tell-all
