If you’ve been waiting for the “Battle of Armageddon”—this is it. Only instead of a single battle, Armageddon is a war, extending the length of Israel, lasting three and a half years. It’s fought against the trinity of hell: Satan, Antichrist, and the False Prophet, who together make the armies of the world march against Israel, hoping to destroy God’s purposes on the earth. It ends with the Lord Jesus Christ’s return from heaven to establish His kingdom.

Do you remember the children's book, "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day"? That title also sums up what most Americans think about Trump's new war with Iran. Kaitlyn explains why the war is immoral based on Christian theology, Phil channels Ezra Klein to define America's new "heads on pikes" foreign policy, and Skye says the war fits Donald Trump's long pattern of laziness and impatience. Then, Preston Sprinkle is back to discuss his latest book, "From Genesis to Junia," about his journey to determine what the Bible really says about women in leadership. Also this...

Matthew 11:28-30

When you worry, it’s like you’re carrying around a heavy burden. You’re weighed down with anxiety and you can’t think clearly. Wouldn’t it be so much easier to give your burdens and worries over to God? He says He’ll take it and will give you peace in return. That’s a pretty good exchange.

Garments can symbolize character, and like his garment, Jesus’ character was seamless. He was like his robe: uninterrupted perfection. A seamless fabric woven from heaven to earth…from God’s thoughts to Jesus’ actions. From God’s tears to Jesus’ compassion. From God’s word to Jesus’ response. All one piece. All a picture of the character of Jesus.

But when Christ was nailed to the cross, he took off his robe of seamless perfection and assumed a different wardrobe– the wardrobe of indignity. Shamed before his family. The indignity of nakedness. The ind...

Are you ready to turn your greatest setbacks into the fuel for exponential growth? In this week's episode, John Maxwell unpacks how the partnership between success and failure is essential to leadership—and why your perspective on failure determines your path to achievement.

2 Timothy 3:10-11 You, Timothy, certainly know what I teach, and how I live and what my purpose in life is. You know my faith, my patience, my love and my endurance. You know how much persecution and suffering I have endured. On the face of it, this sounds like bragging. Paul appears to have an enormous ego and it all feels rather awkward, but he knew how crucial personal example was. He had just informed Timothy of the challenges he was going to face and of how society was going to become more and more ungodly and destructive. If Timothy...

Doubt doesn’t knock politely; it roars in your studio, rewrites your story, and calls itself responsible planning. We shine a bright light on the daily fight every artist faces: the battle to believe what God says about your identity, your calling, and your future. Instead of chasing motivation, we show how agreement with truth becomes a reliable tool you can use when comparison spikes, perfectionism tightens, or the clock whispers that you’re too late.

We trace the enemy’s oldest tactic—did God really say?—and reveal how it hides in modern...

The Lord Jesus Christ is in full charge of the events that unfold in Revelation 15 and 16. Since He was the only one found worthy to open the seven-sealed book, He is the only one worthy to execute judgment against the followers of Antichrist who have received the mark of the beast. In this set of judgments, you’ll be reminded of the plagues of Egypt—only worse.

After years of hindrances, false accusations, shipwrecks, and chains, Paul finally arrives in Rome — not as a free man, but as a prisoner of Christ. In this message, Dr. John shows how God's purposes are never derailed by difficult circumstances, and how Paul wastes no time before beginning his mission in the heart of the empire.

Matthew 11:28

You know what causes stress? Anxiety. Do you know how to rid your life of anxiety? Rest. Resting in Christ is the quickest way to rid your life of harmful stress. “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.”

Think about the thief on the cross who repented! We know little about him, but we know this: He made some bad mistakes in his life. But is he spending eternity reaping the fruit of all the bad choices he made?  No, just the opposite. He is enjoying the fruit of the one good choice he made.

You may look back over your life and say, “If only. . .if only I could make up for those bad choices.”  You can!  One good choice for eternity offsets a thousand bad ones on earth.<...

Mark’s Sandwiches: How the Gospel of Mark Uses Interruptions to Teach Theology

In this episode of Narrative Juxtaposition: How the Bible Speaks Through Story Placement, Michael and Zach examine one of the most distinctive literary techniques in the Gospel of Mark—often called the “Markan sandwich.”

Readers frequently notice that Mark begins one story, suddenly interrupts it with another, and then returns to the original narrative. At first glance the structure can feel abrupt or even chaotic. But when read carefully, these interrup...
