2023 FAY Cabernet Sauvignon

Single-vineyard and estate-grown, FAY Cabernet Sauvignon embodies the rich heritage of the Stags Leap District in Napa Valley. The vineyard—its namesake—was the first planting of Cabernet Sauvignon in the AVA, establishing a legacy that continues to define the region.

This latest vintage opens with a lifted bouquet of black cherries, persimmons, dates, and violets, unfolding with graceful floral accents. The palate is bright and expressive, carrying vibrant energy and finely honed tension.ACQUIRE

Dear Peter,

Later this week, people in Israel will celebrate Yom Yerushalayim, Jerusalem Day, to remember the reunification of the Holy City in 1967. This year’s celebration will take place under a cloud of threat and imminent danger because of the certain knowledge that missiles could again start raining down at any moment. The Jewish people are suffering right now and dealing with so much, and they urgently need our help. We have received a generous matching gift challenge that will double your gift to help twice as many people—so please be as generous as you can when you send your gift today.

The situation is urgent. So many people have lost homes, family members, and even everything they owned in the missile attacks. I’m thinking about families like the Cohens. They buried six family members on the day their son was supposed to have his bar mitzvah. We helped them with the medical bills, buying clothing, and more, and they were so grateful. But there are so many others in urgent need.

The people of Israel are suffering greatly right now, and while they need our prayers, they also need our help. Together we are answering the command of God, “Comfort ye My people.” Together we are telling, and more importantly showing, the people of Israel that they are not alone. Please send your most generous gift today and share this with everyone you know. 

Make a donation here:  https://give.foz.org

Your support of the Friends of Zion today allows us to comfort the people of Israel who have survived the terrorist attacks, minister to the families of the hostages, continue to purchase and deliver food, medicine, clothing, and other necessities of life for the poor Holocaust survivors and refugees of Ukraine, continue to operate the Friends of Zion Museum, and to meet urgent humanitarian needs among the poor Jewish people living in Israel. Thank you so much for being part of this vital worldwide prayer movement. 

Your ambassador to Jerusalem,

Dr. Mike Evans

Dear Loyal Babylon Bee Follower,

You clearly know quality satire when you see it, and it’s people like you who know that the Babylon Bee is on the front lines of the battle to keep comedy free from censorship. Waging this war armed with only our two jokes, we need the help of strong, principled fans of irreverent humor like you to keep us going.

Signing up to be a paid Babylon Bee subscriber not only gives you access to exclusive content but also allows our staff to eat occasionally and, Lord willing, keep their electricity on during the cold winter months. Supporting the Bee as a subscriber also allows us to keep producing cutting-edge jokes that land me television interviews with Tucker Carlson.

Support the Bee

In short, becoming a paid subscriber to the Babylon Bee makes you a part of the fuel that keeps the engine of fake news running. Without that fuel, we’ll be out on the street, spreading our satire door-to-door. Trust me, you don’t want that.

Consider the well-being of our staff and the fate of human civilization as a whole and become a paid Babylon Bee subscriber today.

1 Peter 2:21-23

(21) For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: (22) Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: (23) Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously: 
King James Version   Change email Bible version

The world will not submit to God, which is why the world is in the state that it is! Rather than submit to God, men seek to gratify – or satisfy – their desires. The pattern began early, when Helel (commonly mistranslated as “Lucifer“) did it, resulting in war with God! Then came Adam and Eve, who also did not submit to God. God said, “You may eat of all of the trees in the Garden” – there may have been hundreds of them – “but there is that one there of which I do not want you to eat.” Instead, they followed their own desire, taking from the very tree God said not to eat. This, of course, brought them into conflict with God!

The Christian is called to suppress his lusts. It is not wrong to have desire, but it is wrong not to suppress the lust that can lead a person to exceed his own authority and therefore bring himself into a state of disobedience or non-submission to the authority that God permits in this world.

So to this we were called. We are to be among the first harvest, which will include all of those people, beginning with righteous Abel, who submitted to God rather than man. They did what they did for the same reason that we will do what we will do – we all see God ruling His creation and know that our first priority in life is to submit to Him!

Jesus Christ, Peter says, committed Himself to Him who judges righteously. Jesus knew that Pilate was wrong. He knew that Ananias was wrong and that all the Sanhedrin was wrong. But He submitted to death and to the authority that was constituted by God in those men. He knew there would be a judgment. Those men will be judged for what they did by the very God that Christ, by faith, submitted to. He let God make the decision as to whether He was doing what was right or whether Ananias and Pilate were doing what was right. He did not resist the government, but allowed them to take His life. The resurrection proves that Jesus was right. The resurrection shows God’s judgment because He vindicated His Son.

I hope we get the point: God will vindicate us by a resurrection because we submit to Him and to His way even though we may be caught in the evil of abusive people in positions of power – whether husband, employer, local police, or national government.

56 Days of Silence.
​Here is why…

Hey Family,

​

It has been 56 days.
Longer than I planned. Longer than I intended.

I could have come back with something polished, something safe, something that made it seem like I never left.

But that would not be honest.

These past 56 days have felt much less like progress and much more like a wilderness.

There have been health battles in my home that I did not see coming.
​
An unexpected uprooting that shifted everything.
​
And in the middle of it all, I have felt stretched beyond what is comfortable or controllable.
​

I keep thinking about how God moves in specific timeframes throughout Scripture.
​

Fifty-two days, and the wall was rebuilt.
Forty days in the wilderness, where everything is tested.

​

​

But we rarely talk about what those days actually feel like when you are in them.

They do not feel powerful in the moment.

They feel slow.
Uncertain.
Heavy.

And if I am honest, God has been teaching me something I thought I already understood:

Long suffering.

Not just patience.
Not simply waiting.

But a deep, Spirit-produced endurance that holds onto God even when nothing seems to be changing.

Longsuffering is remaining rooted when life feels unresolved.
​
It is trusting God without a timeline.

It is continuing to believe He is good, even when the season is not.

I am still walking through it.

Still learning how to lean on Him instead of trying to make sense of everything.

But I know this: God has not left.

Not in the silence.
Not in the stretching.
Not in these 56 days.

And if you have been in your own kind of wilderness lately, you are not alone.

Thank you for staying with me.

I do not take that lightly.

I am leaning on God now more than ever, and I am grateful that you are here walking through this with me.

URGENT: Help save a Swift nesting site 

PROTECT THE WILD

MAY 12READ IN APP

A long-established swift nesting site is at risk and we urgently need your help.

At the Pound Road (Banstead) swift colony, a newly installed flue pipe has been positioned directly in front of an active swift nesting entrance, blocking access to a site these incredible birds have reportedly used successfully for many years.

This issue was identified and raised by the brilliant local conservation group Banstead Swifts, whose dedicated volunteers have worked tirelessly to monitor, protect, and advocate for swifts in the area. Without groups like Banstead Swifts, many nesting sites – and the birds that depend on them —- would simply go unnoticed and unprotected.

Swifts are one of Britain’s fastest declining birds.

They travel thousands of miles from Africa every year to return to the exact same nesting sites – only to increasingly find them gone, blocked, or destroyed. The loss of nesting spaces is one of the main reasons their populations are collapsing across the UK.

And now it is happening again.

Banstead Swifts said on Sunday they saw a Swift collide with the pipe, fall, then return and try to access the nest between the pipe and brickwork. They’ve seen no nest entries since.

What makes this especially frustrating is that this situation appears entirely avoidable. 

The flue pipe could reportedly be repositioned relatively easily, restoring access to the nest and protecting this important breeding site.

Sign the petition

We are urging Raven Housing Trust to act immediately and demonstrate genuine commitment to wildlife protection and biodiversity by moving the flue pipe before this nesting site is lost.

Please take a moment to sign our petition to Raven Housing Trust politely and respectfully asking them to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

Every nesting site matters. Every pair matters. And if we continue allowing sites like this to disappear, we will continue watching swifts vanish from our skies.

Thank you for standing up for swifts.
