• The Pope and the Archbishop of Canterbury publicly prayed together this week as part of a push for unification. It’s part of a host of actions the Vatican is taking to bring Protestants back into its fold.

• Massachusetts is taking steps to enforce a new law mandating that churches call transgendered churchgoers by their preferred personal pronouns.

• Muslim Brotherhood supporters in Egypt are angry about what may have been a political assassination of one of their leaders by the al-Sisi government.

• Russia is undertaking massive training drills to train people for disasters—including nuclear war.

• We’ll also talk about the “invisible” civil war in Yemen—a recent Nobel Peace Prize recipient—the EU launching a coast guard and border force—Germany and France’s plans to share an air base—and the disappearance of men from America’s work force.
