Is America’s experiment in liberty genuinely at risk?

Pastor Brandon Holthaus welcomes historian and bestselling author Bill Federer to examine America’s biblical foundations, the rise and fall of civilizations, and the responsibilities that come with living in a constitutional republic.

They discuss why America’s founders rejected rule by kings, how biblical principles shaped Western civilization, the consequences of Christian silence, threats to religious liberty and free speech, and why preserving freedom matters for sharing the Gospel.

Bill Federer is the author of more than 30 books and the creator of American Minute, where he connects pivotal moments in history with the challenges facing the world today.

Dr. Randall Price explains why he places the Gog and Magog invasion of Ezekiel 38 before the tribulation but after the rapture, and what has to happen in Israel first.

Pastor Brandon Holthaus sat down with archaeologist and author Dr. Randall Price at the Prophecy Watchers conference in Colorado. They cover the two messages Dr. Price brought to the conference, Titus 2 and the Magog war, and then work through the current picture in Israel: a high priest installed, the Sanhedrin reconvened, the Knesset vote on Judea and Samaria, and temple movements that describe everything as being in readiness.

From there the conversation turns to the geopolitics. Dr. Price walks through the reported 25 billion dollar Russia and Iran nuclear memorandum discussed in this interview, Turkey's position, and why Ezekiel's language about wealth and resources now has something concrete to point at with Tamar and Leviathan offshore gas. He also makes the case for why Ezekiel's "dwelling securely" fits Israel today.

The last section is Dr. Price on his own ground. He is one of the most trusted voices on the Temple Mount, and he explains where the temple actually stood, what happens to the Dome of the Rock, and what has come out of the soil removed from the Mount: roughly 7,000 coins, inscriptions, jewelry, and floor tiles that let archaeologists reconstruct the temple courts.

Along the way there is a serious word for pastors on why prophecy goes unpreached, and a line worth the whole interview: if there is a mist in the pulpit, there is a fog in the pew.

Why is the pre-tribulation rapture attacked so aggressively—even inside the church?

On location in Colorado, Pastor Brandon Holthaus sits down with Pastor Brad Reaves of CrossWay Christian Fellowship for an honest conversation about the condition of the modern church, biblical illiteracy, standing with Israel, the cost of pastoring a remnant congregation, and why the doctrine of the rapture draws such fierce opposition.

Brad explains why many churches are drifting toward a Laodicean mindset, why believers can be saturated with information yet spiritually starving, and why Revelation 3:10—not John Nelson Darby—is central to his understanding of the rapture. They also discuss Brad’s book, End Times Deceptions.

Pastor Brandon sits down on location in Colorado with Billy Crone — pastor, author, and documentary filmmaker — for a sobering walk through "Trump and the Paradox Prophecies."

Inside: Revelation 17's ten-region world and the Club of Rome map that splits the planet into exactly ten; the 1930s "Technate" map found in the Cornell University Library and how it tracks Canada, Panama, Greenland, Venezuela, Colombia and Mexico; the technocracy bloodline that runs from Joshua Haldeman to his grandson Elon Musk; the World Economic Forum's 2030 Agenda still "in high gear"; the shift from CBDC to AI-tracked stablecoin under the Genius Act and the Clarity Act; the state of a sleeping "Christendom"; and why Crone believes the manufactured alien-disclosure push is a setup to explain away the rapture of the church.

Historian Victor Davis Hanson has spent his life studying how great civilizations fall. In this interview he explains why he sees the same warning signs in America and the West today, and whether it is too late to turn back.

From the fall of Rome to the collapse of California, Dr. Hanson walks through the four markers that signal a civilization in decline: collapsing fertility, undefended borders, a debased currency, and the loss of any transcendent belief worth defending. He and Pastor [NAME] talk immigration and the death of the melting pot, the one-party capture of California, Gavin Newsom and the untouchable elite, the courage it takes to name problems honestly, and what has really happened to voices like Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly. It is a sobering conversation, but it ends with real reasons for hope.

We were never meant to keep up with everything. Yet the flood of breaking news, viral voices, and endless outrage is leaving many believers overwhelmed and, worse, deceived. In this Tip of the Spear conversation, Pastor Brandon Holthaus sits down with author and former pastor David Fiorazo to talk about the one thing the church needs most right now: discernment.

David makes the case that discernment is the word of the year — and lays out his "hours of influence" principle for staying rooted in the Word instead of rattled by the culture. From there, Brandon and David dig into the hard questions:

- Why is the church failing to be salt and light?
- How did biblical illiteracy get this bad — and what it means for the next generation
- Christians turning against Israel: replacement theology, the influencer effect, and collateral anti-Semitism
- The pull of "secret knowledge," conspiracy thinking, and modern-day Gnosticism
- Can public schools and universities be reclaimed? The case for discipleship at home
- The generational collapse of born-again faith — and where real hope remains
- Why some young men are drifting toward Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy instead of the true gospel

It's an honest, sobering, and ultimately hopeful conversation about standing firm and keeping the faith in a world of noise.

Pastor Brandon Holthaus sits down on location at the Prophecy Watchers Conference in Colorado with Dr. J.B. Hixson to talk about his new book, "Fade to Black: The Rise of Global Tyranny."

The spirit of the Antichrist is already at work in the world (1 John 4:3) — and Dr. Hixson walks through how the stage is being set like never before: full-spectrum surveillance and AI, the beast-system framework of buying and selling, the Hegelian dialectic used to trade freedom for "safety," the spirit of perversion, the rise of the paranormal and UFO "disclosure," and the sobering case that the Antichrist may be alive today.

This isn't fear — it's discernment. As Brandon says: when you see these things begin to happen, look up, for your redemption draws near (Luke 21:28).

Why are so many churches abandoning Bible prophecy? Why do younger generations often know little about God's prophetic Word? And what should Christians be watching as world events continue to unfold?

In this powerful conversation, Pastor Brandon Holthaus sits down with veteran Bible prophecy teacher Don Perkins, founder of According to Prophecy Ministries, to discuss the growing prophecy gap in the church, the importance of understanding Israel's role in God's plan, rising global antisemitism, current developments involving Iran, and why Bible prophecy remains one of the greatest sources of hope, evangelism, and spiritual growth for believers today.

Drawing from nearly 45 years of ministry experience, Don Perkins explains why prophecy should always point believers back to Jesus Christ, how understanding the end times strengthens faith, and why Christians must remain engaged rather than passive as the world moves closer to the fulfillment of biblical prophecy.

Topics discussed include:

• Why many churches no longer teach Bible prophecy
• The importance of Israel in God's prophetic plan
• The rise of antisemitism worldwide
• Iran, the Middle East, and future prophetic events
• Why younger generations need prophecy teaching
• How prophecy motivates evangelism and holy living
• The testimony of Jesus as the spirit of prophecy
• Current prophetic trends believers should be watching
• Hope, discernment, and readiness in the last days

Whether you're new to Bible prophecy or a longtime student of Scripture, this discussion will encourage you to trust God's Word, stay focused on Christ, and remain faithful as we watch the signs of the times unfold.
