What if the global order that kept the seas open and the dollar strong is the same order that must weaken for prophecy to unfold? We dig into the petrodollar’s origins, why America’s role as world policeman must eventually fade, and how this correlates to an Islamic invasion built around Sharia—more than a religion, a system. From “house of war” vs “house of peace” to the logic of taqiyya and the many faces of jihad, we connect headlines to history without losing sight of people Jesus loves. ...

We dig into how shared trauma forges a gl...
