When it comes to end-time prophecy, there are some Christians who look at their view as absolutely essential doctrine and spend tons of time trying to map out the last days with charts and graphs. Others see that as a waste of time and prefer to focus on the here and now. So which approach is correct? Pastor J.D. answers that question today as he continues our series, “The Difficult Sayings of Jesus.”
It’s been said that if you put someone on a pedestal, they’re likely to fall. But Dr. Tony Evans says that’s not an issue for the one who created gravity. He begins a series on why Jesus deserves our honor, respect, and reverence—and how it changes us when we give it to Him.
Philip Glassborow, the voice of Malachi, joins the podcast to look back at the unforgettable “Malachi’s Message,” his decades with Focus on the Family Radio Theatre, and what it was like to return for the “Face the Future” story arc.

Remember: Pressure is a red flag. Wisdom takes a breath.

Think of your passwords as keys—each door should have its own.
Staying alert can help you catch problems early.
This is like installing an alarm system for your finances.
Convenience can sometimes come at a cost.
Not everything needs to be public.
Digital security matters—but so does what’s on paper.
When in doubt, verify before you click.
Scammers often target the most vulnerable—especially older adults and teenagers. Take time to:
Stewardship is not just personal—it’s communal.
