    How AI is unmaking us

    In the final part of our three-part series on AI, we turn to a strange source: the enigmatic philosopher and social critic Paul Kingsnorth. Kingsnorth is a controversial figure, known as much for his critiques of capitalism as his hatred for leftist ideology. But he's also an important voice in a world increasingly spiralling down the drainpipe of "progress". In his latest book, he uses the idea of "the Machine" to paint a picture of the dark future we're falling headlong into. Unlike AI 2027, Kingsnorth's work is far more subjective and spiritual. Yet, in many ways, it speaks to the nascent fear we're all feeling, but often struggle to articulate. Read the article |  Facebook | Instagram | TikTok | X

    AI 2027: are we cooked?

    Horrific Gen Z slang aside, in this second part of our three-part series on AI, Jesse and Zanita explore the troubling research project titled "AI 2027".

    Is Peter Thiel right about the Antichrist?

    Throughout history, the Antichrist has acted as a political and spiritual truncheon—a tool that individuals and institutions alike could use to tar and feather their opponents. It's been used by popes and reformers, kings and cardinals, revolutionaries and reactionaries alike. And yet, behind its political utility, the concept of the Antichrist has a very specific, biblical origin. In this episode, Jesse and Zanita examine tech billionaire Peter Thiel's recent obsession with the Antichrist. We look at why he's so preoccupied with this strange biblical idea, what it means for his work and what it means for us. This is also part 1 of a 3-part series on AI. Each episode will examine a different aspect of the AI conversation and links directly to an article series Jesse has written.

    Why willpower doesn’t work

    That’s the promise—and the challenge—of this conversation with psychologist Simon Matthews, author of the article “You Don’t Need More Willpower.” So many of us assume growth is about discipline: pushing harder, resisting temptation, forcing better habits. But what if that mindset is the very reason you keep getting stuck? In this episode we explore why willpower fails, what actually drives lasting change, and how faith reshapes the way we understand transformation.

    Can there truly be peace on earth?

    It's the holiday season, and for all of us who celebrate, it's often a time of reflection—on our personal lives, on the state of the world—and our place in it. It's also a time when much of the world pauses and indulges in food, family and gift-giving. Much of the secular world obsesses over these material pursuits in an ever-unsatisfying of consumption and excess. For those of us who follow Jesus, however, Christmas is more than just gifts and food. It's a time when we reflect on a tiny baby who entered the world in a time of war and strife to bring peace "on earth to all men (and women, of course)". In the December 2025 issue of Signs of the Times, two articles focus on this theme of peace: one through the lens of a Roman emperor, and the other through a miraculous moment during the carnage of World War I.
