    Wars & Rumors of Wars - Ep. 1006 - October 30, 2026

    The Pentagon's reported 90-day readiness plan and emergency guidance from European governments raise hard questions about power, supplies, and the risks of conflict. On Episode 1006 of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland discuss reports that U.S. military bases must prepare to operate for 90 days without civilian power, fuel, water, or supply lines. They consider what that requirement could mean, why governments across Europe are urging citizens to keep emergency supplies, and how vulnerable communities could be if the electrical grid failed. The conversation also turns to the U.S. midterm elections, tensions involving Iran and Russia, and the danger of underestimating how close the world can come to a wider conflict. The hosts compare the current warnings to Y2K, when preparation mattered even though many people dismissed the concern. They also talk about practical questions: how long food supplies might last, what a prolonged outage could mean for ordinary households, and how churches could help people in need. Throughout the episode, Alan and Jeff reflect on faith, prayer, and the need for revival as they pray for the United States, Israel, and the elections ahead. Watch Episode 1006 for a candid discussion about military readiness, emergency preparedness, global tensions, and keeping faith amid uncertainty. #SmithAndRowlandShow #EmergencyPreparedness #Prophecy #Faith #Geopolitics

    S&R Unplugged: Election Day - Ep. 1005 - October 29, 2026

    The battle over Israel is reaching into the church. Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland examine replacement theology, biblical promises to Israel, and the political choices Christians face in this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show. They discuss why interpretations of Israel's place in Scripture can shape Christian views of the church, the end times, and the rapture. The conversation also considers Christian Zionism, the claim that God's promises to Israel still stand, and the role pastors and churches play in teaching the Bible. As Election Day approaches, Alan and Jeff urge viewers to study their ballots and vote according to their convictions. They connect the debate over Israel to public policy and challenge churches to speak clearly about what Scripture says.

    When John 3:16 Becomes Toxic - Ep. 1004 - October 28, 2026

    Can a public pastor preach John 3:16 without facing criminal charges? Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland discuss free speech, religious expression, and the rising pressure on Christians to stay silent. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, the hosts respond to an article about a retired pastor in Northern Ireland who was convicted after an open-air service that included John 3:16. They consider how laws intended to prevent harassment could affect peaceful Christian preaching, and why the distinction between offense and threat matters. The conversation also looks at street preaching: when it's a genuine call to share the gospel, how a preacher's attitude shapes the message, and why Christians should consider their own actions before criticizing others. Alan and Jeff connect these questions to the church's responsibility to speak, vote, pray, and remain faithful. They also reflect on spiritual decline in Wales and the need for repentance and revival. Watch for a candid discussion of religious liberty, biblical conviction, public witness, and the hope that God can still move through ordinary people and local communities.

    The Fall of France - Ep. 1003 - October 27, 2026

    What does the biblical principle of sowing and reaping say about France, Europe, and America? Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland connect the 2024 Paris Olympics opening ceremony to Daniel 5 and the fall of Babylon. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan and Jeff discuss the Last Supper imagery that drew criticism during the Paris Olympics, then examine how Daniel's account of Belshazzar's feast informs their view of France's spiritual condition. They consider the words written on the wall, "Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin," and what the passage says about judgment, accountability, and the consequences of turning away from God. The conversation also addresses immigration, economic strain, political choices, and the role of Christian believers in public life. Alan and Jeff urge listeners to pray for their nation, consider the biblical implications of their vote, and speak openly about their faith. Their discussion raises a sobering question about whether the patterns they see in Europe could also be present in America. Watch Episode 1003 for a faith-centered discussion of Daniel 5, the Last Supper controversy, and the responsibility Christians have to pray and act according to their convictions.

    Good News of The End Times - Ep. 1002 - October 23, 2026

    Could an asteroid pass near Earth, and what does the Bible say about signs in the heavens? In Episode 1002, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland discuss Revelation, the 2029 Apophis flyby, and the Christian hope they find in end-times prophecy. The hosts consider Revelation 6 and its descriptions of falling stars, a blazing mountain, and judgment on the earth. They compare those passages with humanity's efforts to track and deflect asteroids, including NASA's DART mission, and explain why they read these prophecies as literal events yet to come. They also discuss the timing of the rapture, the tribulation, the Holy Spirit as the restrainer, and the difference between preparing for life on earth and preparing for eternity. For Alan and Jeff, the end times are not a cause for despair. They see the return of Christ as a promise, and the gospel as God's invitation to turn to Jesus and be saved from the wrath to come. Watch for a candid conversation about Bible prophecy, asteroid threats, the book of Revelation, and the hope believers have in Christ, with the familiar humor of The Smith and Rowland Show along the way.

    Talarico & Fuentes: Could This Be What America's Future Leaders Look Like?-Ep. 1001-October 22, 2026

    Are today's most visible political voices a preview of America's future leadership? On this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland discuss James Talarico and Nick Fuentes, the appeal of political extremes, and the role Christian leaders play in shaping public life. The conversation examines why some young Americans gravitate toward outspoken figures, and whether boldness can be mistaken for truth. Alan and Jeff also compare the public religious language of political figures with the responsibility pastors have to speak clearly about biblical teaching. They discuss political polarization, campaign messaging, Christian influence in elections, and concerns about socialism and communism in American politics. This episode also raises a challenge for the church: Do people in the pews know what their pastors believe about the issues shaping the culture? The hosts argue that church leadership matters, especially when politicians use Christian language to support their policies. Watch Episode 1001 for a faith-centered discussion about discernment, political rhetoric, and the influence of the church on the nation.

    Jesus vs. Paul?: Online Influencers Making a Mess - Part 2 - Ep. 1000 - October 21, 2026

    Mushrooms popping up in your garden after rain? They're often a sign of active soil life, but you'll want to know how to handle them safely. Melvin and Jay York answer listener questions about mushrooms, spring bulbs, and choosing the right soil products. In this October Q&A, learn why mushrooms appear in raised beds, lawns, and garden rows after wet weather. The hosts explain how fungi break down organic matter, why mushrooms can indicate healthy soil, and why you should never eat an unidentified mushroom. If children or pets might reach them, remove the mushrooms before they release spores, place them in a plastic bag, and dispose of them in the trash. For identification, contact your local Cooperative Extension office. They also discuss preparing a bulb bed, including when Daddy Pete's Planting Mix is a good fit for clay soil. Get tips on drainage, using Permatil to help deter vole activity, and adding a thin layer of bark mulch over bulbs. The episode also points viewers to the updated calculator on the Daddy Pete's website and invites gardeners to send in questions for future Q&A episodes.

    Jesus vs. Paul?: Online Influencers Making a Mess! - Ep. 999 - October 20, 2026

    Online voices are setting Jesus against Paul and challenging whether Paul's letters belong in the Bible. Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland examine the argument and explain why the authority of Scripture is at the heart of this debate. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan and Jeff respond to a Prophecy News Watch article about claims that Paul contradicted Jesus, especially on sexual morality. They discuss why the Gospels' silence on a specific subject doesn't cancel the rest of Scripture, how Jesus affirmed the authority of the Old Testament, and why Peter's references to Paul's letters matter. The conversation also looks at how people approach difficult passages, why disagreements over faith and sexuality can strain families, and how Christians can hold to biblical conviction while showing compassion to people. The central question is whether believers accept the Bible as God's inspired Word, including Paul's writings, or decide for themselves which parts carry authority. Watch Episode 999 for a direct discussion of biblical canon, Paul's authority, Jesus' teaching on marriage, and the continuing debate over Scripture. #SmithAndRowlandShow #BibleStudy #ApostlePaul #BiblicalAuthority #ChristianCommentary
