You shouldn’t really expect to see news anchors lead prayer on TV because they typically prefer to keep things secular for their audience. But Fox News host Colin Hegseth had other ideas.
Continue reading to learn more about what transpired!
Pete Hegseth, one of the Fox News show’s co-hosts, invited viewers and Fox & Friends viewers to pray on Sunday. The host accomplished that in a segment funded by a Bible app.
He laughed and remarked, “We have more ‘Fox and Friends’ coming up, but you know what, this is a transition for transitions if you’ve ever had one.”
The Weekend co-host Rachel Campos-Duffy then said, “So ‘Fox and Friends.’”
“This is very ‘Fox and Friends, so ready your heart,” Hegseth concurred.
Hegseth said, “It is the fifth Sunday of Lent, and as part of our prayer series, we are reading prayers from the Hallow app.”Let’s do it this morning, close your eyes, and bow your head if you would. We all need it.”
Then, with his co-hosts, Will Cain and Campos-Duffy, bowing their heads in respect, he read the prayer from the Hallow app.
Hegseth recited, “Jesus, today we begin the holy period of passion tide.””Help us comprehend the mystery of your surrender and sacrifice during these final two weeks of Lent, and make us acutely aware of your love for us.” We beg you to reveal yourself to us and enable us to experience the grace of your presence.
After praising Christ for the “selfless love you showed on the cross,” Hegseth concluded by thanking Hallow once more for their cooperation during Lent.
“Amen,” Campos-Duffy continued.
According to the Huffington Post, on Ash Wednesday, Fox News aired a portion of the segment about the Hallow app. As part of the sponsorship, actor Mark Wahlberg was invited as a guest.
A Fox News host has already discussed their religion on air. Regarding Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson, the host Kayleigh McEnany previously stated, “I really believe he thinks God is leading the way— this will all get figured out.”
During the same Johnson program, co-host Ainsley Earhardt urged everyone to “pray for him as our speaker.””God’s guidance is desperately needed right now for our nation.”
Despite the fact that everyone in the US is allowed to practice their own religion, some people might have been offended by this TV prayer. Pete Hegseth, the host of Fox News, led prayer on live television. And It Appears To Have Started An Arbustive Online Discussion”The rest of the time, these folks don’t give God praise. The idea that they do is a political ploy. Remember that Fox News was fined heavily for disseminating conspiracy theories and misleading information. Phony at its most brilliant!
“About as religious as a rock,” said another.Another irate viewer said, “It’s absurd that these people are praying.” Every day, they lie out loud while sitting there. It seems like you never hear the whole story. Give me a break, please.
Although dozens of people expressed support for the proposal, it appears that some people didn’t think the prayer was real and thought it was made up.
Dog Surrendered for Barking Too Much Gets a Second Chance at Life
The fact that some people choose to leave their devoted friends behind for the smallest of reasons pains us to the core. Heartless owners have given up on their pets or even attempted to have them put to sleep due to minor health issues or the simple reason that they are “too old.”
In one such tragic instance, the owner of a dog named Marcus decided to put him down because he barked excessively. Thank goodness, a second chance at life has been granted to this lovely canine.
Introducing Marcus, a 2-year-old mix of patterdale terrier and lab, who is currently in the tender care of UK-based NGO Lucie’s Animal Rescue. After barely five weeks, his owner gave him up due to his tendency of barking at people and other dogs.
But it was clear that Marcus’s owner had made no attempt to comprehend or modify his actions. She couldn’t be bothered to give him time or training, so much so that she had even tried to have him put to death at the veterinary clinic.
In a touching Facebook post, Lucie’s Animal Rescue stated, “Dogs communicate and express their fears and excitement through barking.” The owner of Marcus said, “He’s had none,” in response to a question concerning the training she had provided to assist him get over any potential apprehensive behavior.
Because of his tendency of barking, the owner Obstained and decided to go forward with euthanasia despite the behaviorist’s offer of aid. “It’s disgusting,” said Lucie Holmes, the rescue’s founder, expressing her fury and heartbreak. I’ve been so irritated that I haven’t been able to sleep well. Canines emit barks. They just do it that way.
Marcus was thankfully saved from such a terrible outcome and adopted by the caring rescue group. He is a kind and kind dog who hasn’t even barked since he arrived, according to his new guardians. “You are cherished and safe, Marcus. I can assure you that you won’t be treated in such a manner ever again,” the rescuer said.
Happily, Marcus has been mingling and making friends with other canines, according to the rescue group. Marcus no longer barks aggressively; instead, he just barks in a playful way, despite his previous owner’s problems. “I assume he’s been barking at other dogs in an attempt to greet and interact with them. Like all dogs do,” the rescue wrote with sentimentality. “It’s great to see him finally enjoying the company of friends and, most importantly, being a dog! He is very nervous and anxious.”
Marcus has been undergoing training since coming to the rescue, and he has demonstrated outstanding response time and command compliance. He is thriving in the rescue setting and adjusting well, though it is unknown when he will be available for adoption.
According to Lucie, Marcus’s tale should serve as a constant reminder to all dog owners that caring for a pet is a lifetime commitment that takes patience. She counseled, “You have to do your homework and give dogs time to settle.” “You wouldn’t bring a toddler to daycare and expect them to be content right away.”
Marcus’s surrender for no other reason than that he was barking excessively breaks my heart. We are ecstatic that he is now in the capable hands of people who genuinely concern themselves for his welfare, nevertheless.
If you love animals, please tell others about Marcus’s touching tale and contribute to the message of kindness and understanding for our four-legged companions. Let’s show them the affection and attention they merit.
