If you want your child to grow up and perpetuate Godly values, sit down together every night and have a meal together, says Christian apologist and Founder and President of Truth For a New Generation, Alex McFarland. Alex has preached in more than 2,000 churches across America and is the only evangelist to have preached in 50 states in 50 days! The three things that children need most from their parents, reveals Alex, is authenticity, consistency, and accessibility. Alex shares that the youth of today are searching for the truth, and parents are the most important role model in a child’s life when it comes to illustrating what a relationship with Christ looks like. At Alex’s Truth for a New Generation camps, apologetics are taught to kids who are searching for a Biblical worldview.

Leaping from the top of a 32-foot pole and grabbing a trapeze bar is just one way that Guest Services Director of Doe River Gorge, Donna Pearce, says kids can draw closer to God. Donna coordinates the activities of this sprawling Tennessee Christian campground, which hosts campers from grade two to college. Campers can ride a train through the scenic river gorge, enjoy a paintball game, tube in the rapids, or swim in the lake. Donna points out various ways the camp provides an opportunity for youth to establish lifelong friendships and build a lasting relationship with the Lord. Children are encouraged to grow their faith by stepping out of their comfort zones and doing things they’ve never done before, like spelunking and horseback riding. The camp provides a breathtaking spot for families as well, who are seeking a Jesus-based getaway.

On August 2, 1988, at the age of eleven, host Tina Griffin along with her two younger brothers and three fearless friends saw something not of this world that changed their lives forever. While riding bikes behind her family’s barn, a UFO was spotted hovering just above a cornfield. The mysterious shiny silver disk-like object was approximately forty feet wide with multi-colored lights and when it landed, weird noises were coming from the craft along with fireworks. Another witness from a neighboring town recorded this sighting with the National UFO reporting center. Tina discusses how this several minute UFO encounter altered her thinking when it comes to aliens and UFOs and how they relate to the end times and the rapture of the church. Alleged alien abduction stories no longer seem far fetched.

He also discusses how UFOs are “demonic” and how the Bible tells us that there will be an increase in miracles, signs, and wonders in the end days. Brannon gives details on how Satan is using UFOs to build a narrative to explain the rapture of the church, and why the world is so fascinated with UFO sightings and videos.

UFOs and aliens are the new “mega” religion of the 21st century, according to UFO expert and founder of Get a Life Ministries, Pastor Billy Crone. Thanks to the theory of evolution and the power of Hollywood movies, aliens dominate the landscape of American pop culture and religion. Billy describes how aliens will be used to explain the rapture of the church, and that their appearance will be one of the greatest mass deceptions of the end times. In addition, Billy discusses how Darwin’s theory of evolution ties into the world’s fascination with aliens, why AI technology is needed to fulfill some prophecies in Revelation, and how alien narratives are being manipulated to attempt to discredit Christianity and pave the way for a one world government.

Three robotic looking alien beings kidnapped Calvin Parker and his friend Charles Hickson while fishing off a pier in Pascagoula, Mississippi back in October 1973. This strong professing Christian explained how these strange creatures with clamps for hands, took them against their will into a spacecraft hovering just above the ground. Calvin was given several shots to sedate him and then placed on a glass examination table where a foreign-looking female tried to reach up into his nasal cavity via his throat and finally stopped prodding after he started bleeding. After going to the police, Calvin’s story was leaked to the press, but he refused to talk about the terrifying ordeal for over forty-five years. Fifty witnesses saw the UFO and two people observed the men being dragged into the spacecraft.

One day while driving home from work, thirty-five-year-old Todd Shoemaker started coughing up blood. Doctors gave him the devastating news that he had a massive tumor and there was nothing they could do. Over the course of eighteen years of treatment and dealing with Parkinson’s disease and an autoimmune disorder called myasthenia gravis, doctors told Todd dozens of times that he was going to die. But God had other plans. While undergoing open heart surgery God told Todd he needed to start running marathons and sharing the gospel. After the drugs wore off, Todd put his running shoes on and ran his first mile. Throughout 2020 he ran over 1,000 miles and continues to pray and share the gospel with the people he meets while on his daily runs.

When founder of Empowered Music Benny DiChiara suddenly fainted and fell backwards in October 2015, his head hit the floor so hard it sounded like a gunshot went off. When Benny woke up, he remembered all the training he received as a Navy corpsman medic. Instead of lying down, he immediately went to the ICU where doctors discovered a double fracture on the back of his skull along with a frontal lobe crush causing the permanent loss of Benny’s sense of taste and smell. The traumatic brain injury should have ended his singing career and even his life. However, God performed a miracle and Benny astonished doctors with a rapid and nearly full recovery. During his healing process, God told Benny his testimony would be used to spread the gospel and gave him the lyrics to the song “Jeremiah 29:11” in a matter of minutes.

On April 11, 1991, Raymond “Corky” Hawthorne was heading back home to Montgomery, Alabama, along 1-65 in his Volvo, drunk. His car immediately burst into flames after slamming into the back of an 18-wheeler pulling out of a rest stop. He blacked out upon impact and was in a coma for over a month. It wasn’t until he received a letter from a stranger, Eddie Walker, who stopped at the scene of the accident, that Corky realized he had been miraculously saved! Three angels had approached the burning car one after another, bringing exactly what Eddie needed to rescue Corky from the wreck. Corky was not only physically saved, but a year later he was spiritually saved when he placed his faith in Jesus.
