Good morning, Weekend Plug-in readers!

Since we last convened, we had Super Tuesday (the Biden-Trump rematch is all but set) and the State of the Union speech (abortion, immigration and the Israel-Hamas war were among key topics of interest for religious voters).

In other big news, the U.S. Department of Education fined evangelical Liberty University $14 million over campus safety issues, as noted by The Associated Press’ Ben Finley, Christianity Today’s Emily Belz and the Washington Post’s Susan Svrluga.

This is our weekly roundup of the top headlines and best reads in the world of faith. We start with the federal probe — is it over or not? — into Southern Baptists’ handling of sex abuse allegations.

Read the full column.
