About this listen

Occasionally, people say, are we really in the last days? How do we know? Does it matter one way or another? We will try to answer these questions and many others in this study. But the most important question may be, how can we reach others with hope in these changing times? One part of prophecy is often emphasized over another, causing us to lose perspective and miss the blessing and beauty of prophecy in scripture. I have taken the information in this study from many authors and teachers who have their lives studying God's word. I have added some insight that the Holy Spirit taught me. With God's help, I have endeavored to keep the whole counsel of the word of God in full view to give us an accurate picture of Christ and His great love for a lost world. I pray that this will challenge you and cause you to grow in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ, as it has me preparing it. Let's begin!

  • Kingdoms at War: From Seattle Streets to Child Exploitation Battles
    May 29 2025

    A violent clash erupts at a Christian worship event in Seattle, Washington, capturing headlines around the world and pushing all the way to the White House. What started as a peaceful outreach with free haircuts and grocery giveaways transforms into a flashpoint when protesters storm the stage, throw objects including cans of soup, and perform lewd acts in front of children.

    Revival leader Ross Johnson shares his remarkable perspective, having been born through artificial insemination and raised in a lesbian household before encountering Christianity as a teenager. His story complicates the simplistic narratives often applied to culture war conflicts. When the city denied their original venue request and redirected them to Cal Anderson Park—known as an LGBTQ-friendly space—God's orchestration became evident as an unintended audience encountered the gospel message.

    The spiritual battle raging in Seattle mirrors larger conflicts throughout society. Tim Tebow's ministry fighting child exploitation reveals the darkness lurking beneath American society's surface, with over 111,000 unique IP addresses downloading child abuse material in a single month.

    These clashing kingdoms—light versus darkness—reveal how close we are to the fulfillment of biblical prophecy. The increasing frequency of events resembling birth pangs suggests we're approaching a pivotal moment in history. While revival breaks out across the nation, God seeks His faithful remnant who will stand firm despite opposition and bring light to the darkest corners of our world. Will you join this spiritual battle and be counted among those making a difference in these end times?

  • AI Awakening: The Beast in Revelation
    May 24 2025

    Technology is rapidly fulfilling ancient prophecies right before our eyes. In this riveting exploration of artificial intelligence and biblical revelation, we uncover the alarming parallels between emerging tech capabilities and the warnings found in Revelation 13 about the image of the beast and the mark required for commerce.

    The brilliant Oxford mathematician Professor John Lennox provides crucial insights into how leading scientists view our technological future. Specifically, physicist Max Tegmark's "Omega Project" scenario describes a global government using mandatory wearable devices that monitor citizens continuously and can administer lethal toxins when tampered with—eerily similar to the biblical description of the mark without which "no one can buy or sell."

    While theologians have spent centuries debating the identity of the Antichrist and the numerical significance of 666, we may have overlooked the bigger picture. AI systems are rapidly gaining attributes traditionally associated with deity: near-omniscience through vast databases, omnipresence through internet connectivity, and oracle-like abilities to provide instant answers and guidance. Some ethicists already note the emergence of quasi-religious devotion to artificial intelligence.

    The technological groundwork for global control as described in Revelation is no longer science fiction but present reality. As humans created in God's image turn to creating intelligent systems in their own image, we see a perverse inversion of divine order that could enforce the will of a centralized authority with unprecedented efficiency.

    Despite these developments, believers need not surrender to fear. Understanding prophecy in light of current events helps us stay vigilant and informed as we await Christ's return. The signs are clear: a great falling away from true faith and technology enabling biblical prophecies to be fulfilled with stunning precision. Stay rooted in God's Word, maintain spiritual discernment, and keep your eyes fixed on Jesus—the King is coming.

  • Freedom Through Christ in a World of Captivity
    May 22 2025

    Send us a text

    Freedom. The Iranian people crave it desperately, struggling against an oppressive regime while many in the West remain unaware of their true plight. In this riveting episode, we peel back the curtain on what's really happening in Iran through exclusive insights and powerful testimony.

    Most crucially, we explore how the physical captivity of Iranians parallels the spiritual bondage affecting people worldwide. Jesus himself declared, "I have come to set the captives free," commissioning followers to continue this liberation mission. Yet how often do we fixate on symptoms rather than addressing the root spiritual causes of humanity's suffering?

    This geopolitical situation carries profound prophetic significance. We examine how independent nations function as obstacles to globalism and the prophesied one-world government. While human-orchestrated unification inevitably fails, there's coming a day when Christ will establish perfect global harmony during His millennial reign. Until then, our mission remains clear—to pray not primarily for personal prosperity or escape from tribulation, but for the true freedom of all people through Jesus Christ.

    The spiritual battle intensifies daily. Behind the headlines about Iran, persecuted believers continue sharing the gospel underground. Could God be opening a window for massive spiritual revival before time runs out? Join us as we gain perspective on world events through the lens of Scripture and discover how to pray effectively in these critical times. The King is coming—stay informed, vigilant, and focused on what truly matters in these end times.
