Are modern earthquakes, wars, and global chaos signs that Jesus is about to return?

In this episode of Richard Reacts, Richard Henry responds to popular end-times claims surrounding Matthew 24 and the tendency to interpret every earthquake, war, or disaster as evidence that the end is near.

Richard examines Jesus’ words about wars, rumors of wars, famines, earthquakes, persecution, and the “end of the age” in their original context. Were these warnings primarily about events thousands of years in the future—or about the judgment coming upon Jerusalem and the destruction of the temple in A.D. 70?

Instead of reading today’s headlines back into biblical prophecy, Richard challenges Christians to read Matthew 24 in context, abandon sensational “newspaper exegesis,” and recover a more confident view of Christ’s kingdom and its advance throughout history.

What do you think? Are modern earthquakes signs of the end—or have Christians been reading Matthew 24 incorrectly? Let us know in the comments.

Are the PCA and OPC schismatic churches, or were they right to separate from corrupt mainline denominations?

In this episode of The Magistrate, Josh Howard and James Baird discuss the theology of schism, ecclesiastical jurisdiction, Redeemed Zoomer’s argument for reconquering the PCUSA, and whether conservatives have a duty to remain inside broken institutions.

They explore what constitutes a true church, when separation is justified, the difference between unity and compromise, the Old Testament temple argument, Presbyterian history in America, and why Christians should pursue real unity in faith, hope, and love without pretending doctrinal corruption does not matter.

What happens when technology stops merely serving humanity—and starts trying to redefine what it means to be human?

Pastor George Sayour is joined by author C.R. Wiley to discuss his book Man Made: A Guide to Surviving the AI Apocalypse and the Christian response to artificial intelligence and transhumanism.

They explore the connections between AI, the transhumanist dream, Francis Bacon, human “hacking,” consciousness, golems, robots, and humanity's ancient temptation to overcome the limits God has placed upon us.

Wiley argues that Christians don't need to fear every use of artificial intelligence. But as technology becomes increasingly powerful, Christians must remain rooted in the real, embodied, analog world God created—and resist the temptation to remake humanity in man's own image.

What did Jesus mean when He declared that “the gates of hell shall not prevail” against His church?

In this episode of The Based Boomer Podcast, Mike D’Virgilio challenges the idea that Christians should expect the church to remain permanently on the defensive. Gates are defensive structures—and Christ’s promise in Matthew 16 presents a church advancing against the kingdom of darkness, not hiding from it.

Drawing from Matthew 12 and 16, Colossians 1, Ephesians 1, and Revelation 20, Mike examines Christ’s victory over Satan through His death, resurrection, and ascension. The strong man has been bound, Christ reigns, and His people have been commissioned to carry the gospel into the world.

The question isn’t whether the gates of hell will overcome Christ’s church. Jesus has already told us they won’t. The question is whether Christians actually believe His promise.

What is progressive sanctification, and why is it such good news for Christians who still struggle with sin?

In this episode of Take Heart, Cory Wing explains that when God saves His people, He does not leave them where He found them.

Through Philippians 1, Galatians 3, 2 Corinthians 3, Romans 8, John 17, Hebrews 10, and other passages, Cory shows how God progressively conforms believers into the image of Christ through His Spirit, His Word, prayer, the church, family, suffering, repentance, and daily obedience.

This episode offers encouragement for weary Christians who feel like they are growing slowly: the same God who began the good work will bring it to completion.

Why was God so angry with Tyre, and how does Tyre’s history prove the Bible is true?

In this episode of Shadows to Substance, Pastor George Sayour explores the biblical and historical significance of the Mediterranean city of Tyre.

Though Tyre was once an ally of Israel through David, Solomon, and King Hiram, Scripture repeatedly pronounces judgment against it in Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Joel, Amos, and Zechariah.

George shows how prophecies about Tyre were fulfilled through Nebuchadnezzar, Alexander the Great, and later historical judgments, while also pointing to the deeper issue beneath Tyre’s downfall: pride, wealth, self-sufficiency, and rejection of God. Yet even in judgment, Scripture holds out hope that Gentile nations like Tyre can be humbled, restored, and brought under the lordship of Christ.

Are you truly ready for the return of Christ? In this continuation of his teaching through the Olivet Discourse, Pastor Brian Gunter turns to Matthew 25 and the sobering parable of the ten virgins. What separates the wise from the foolish—and why does Jesus end the parable with such a terrifying warning?

Brian explores the ancient wedding background, the significance of the lamps and oil, and the danger of possessing an outward profession of faith without the reality behind it. Salvation cannot be borrowed from parents, churches, theological knowledge, or religious activity.

The warning is simple and urgent: when the Bridegroom comes, the door is shut.

Watch as Brian unpacks one of Christ’s most searching parables and its call to genuine faith, perseverance, and readiness.

Where did “In God We Trust” really come from, and was it merely Cold War anti-communist propaganda?

In this episode of The Magistrate, Josh Howard and James Baird trace the forgotten Civil War-era origins of the phrase on American currency.

They discuss Baptist pastor Mark Watkinson, Treasury Secretary Salmon Chase, U.S. Mint Director James Pollock, Henry Boardman of Tenth Presbyterian Church, the original National Reform Association, and the push to recognize God and the Christian character of the nation in public life.

This episode uncovers how “In God We Trust” was part of a broader pan-Protestant effort to call America to national repentance, acknowledge divine sovereignty, and confess dependence upon the God of the Bible.

In this episode of Richard Reacts, Richard Henry responds to viral claims about Israel, America, vengeance, and the role of Western nations in the Middle East.

But instead of allowing geopolitics to determine how Christians think about Israel and the Jewish people, Richard goes back to Scripture. What exactly did God promise to Abraham? Who inherits those promises? And how should Christians understand the relationship between Israel, the nations, and Jesus Christ?

Looking at passages including Genesis 12, Romans 15, Galatians 3, and Matthew 24, Richard challenges popular assumptions about Israel and biblical prophecy and argues that the ultimate hope of both Jew and Gentile is found not in ethnic superiority, national vengeance, or geopolitical power—but in Jesus Christ, the promised seed of Abraham and Savior of the nations.

Why does the destruction of Jerusalem in A.D. 70 matter for how Christians understand the Great Tribulation?

In this episode of The Based Boomer Podcast, Mike D’Virgilio examines the fall of Jerusalem, the destruction of the temple, and the horrific Roman siege that brought an end to the Old Covenant age.

Drawing from Scripture and historical accounts, Mike explores the events surrounding A.D. 70 and their connection to Jesus’ warnings in Matthew 24.

Was the Great Tribulation a worldwide event still waiting in our future—or was Jesus describing the catastrophic judgment that would fall upon Jerusalem within that generation?

Mike makes the case that understanding A.D. 70 changes the way we read biblical prophecy, the Olivet Discourse, and the advance of Christ’s kingdom in history.
