    #228: France on Fire

    Last weekend, hundreds of thousands of far-left and Islamist rioters set fire to the streets of Paris, Marseille and other French cities. This is happening as France heads into an election year. Will this be a turning point in bringing Europe the strongman it demands? Meanwhile, a terrorist attack puts the West Bank on lockdown, America suffers another mass school shooting, and Russia threatens space. Host Richard Palmer and panelists Mihailo Zekic, Andrew Miiller and Jeremiah Jacques dive into these stories among others. “Why the Trumpet Watches the Rise of a German Strongman” Jerusalem in Prophecy “Who Is Raising Our Sons?” “Russia’s Unprecedented Satellite Maneuver Raises Fears of Space Warfare”

    #227: Canada Saved Its Unity, but the Devouring Moths Remain

    An overwhelming majority of Albertans recently voted to remain in Canada, dealing a major blow to the province’s independence movement. But does this mean peace and unity have returned north of the border? On today’s Trumpet World, host Richard Palmer is joined by Canada correspondent Abraham Blondeau to unpack the referendum results and the deep-seated rage against Ottawa’s economic policies. They analyze Canada’s rapid transformation under Mark Carney—from its pivot away from traditional Anglo-American ties toward Germany and the EU to radical demographic shifts and rising internal division. Finally, they examine the biblical prophecies in Hosea 5 predicting how these internal “moths” are eating away at Canada’s national fabric.

    #224: Everybody’s Going Catholic

    In a supposedly secular age, the Catholic Church is making a remarkable comeback. Pope Leo XIV held a mass of almost 800,000 people on the streets of Paris, snubbing the political leadership while French cities burn amid mass riots. Meanwhile, Latin America is seeing a conservative resurgence, demonstrated by a recent election in Brazil. Could the Catholic Church exploit this opening in one of its heartlands? Host Richard Palmer and panelists Mihailo Zekic, Andrew Miiller and Jeremiah Jacques discuss these trends and more. “He Was Right About Iraq” The Holy Roman Empire in Prophecy America Under Attack “Why We Must Warn About Vladimir Putin”

    #223: The First Military Victim of World War III

    Decades after the collapse of Yugoslavia, the Balkans remains one of Europe’s most dangerous flashpoints. Recent events—from the funeral of Ratko Mladić in Belgrade to the war crimes conviction of Hashim Thaçi—reveal that the wounds of the 1990s are far from healed. Where is this pivotal region heading, and why are Germany and Russia competing so fiercely for influence in southeastern Europe? On this episode of Trumpet World, guest host Mihailo Zekic breaks down the geopolitical history of the Yugoslav Wars, exposes double standards in European diplomacy, and explains how unrest in the Balkans could ignite a far greater global crisis.

    #222: The Holy Days Religion Forgot

    The Bible predicts a power that would “think to change times and laws,” altering the very calendar God established. Across the world, humanity keeps man-made days while ignoring the annual holy days commanded throughout Scripture. Did Jesus Christ do away with these biblical feast days, or are they binding on Christians forever? On this episode of Trumpet World, host Richard Palmer examines the biblical proof that early Christians kept God's holy days, explains why they remain in force today, and reveals the profound hope hidden within God’s calendar.

    #220: Make Germany Great Again?

    Following the AfD’s historic 43.8 percent triumph in Saxony-Anhalt, Donald Trump celebrated the victory with the slogan MGGA—“Make Germany Great Again.” But by cheering for a party rooted in far-right nationalism, is President Trump making a dangerous mistake? Where will Germany's turn right lead for the United States and the world? On today’s Trumpet World, host Richard Palmer examines why backing a resurgent, nationalistic Germany will ultimately lead to disastrous consequences for America.

    #218: Why Australia Cannot Trust in Man

    Australia is placing its trust in earthly alliances rather than Almighty God. Desperate to counter China’s aggressive shift from soft-power diplomacy to hard economic and military expansion—including buying up strategic ports, airfields and rail lines—Australia has secured pacts with Papua New Guinea, Fiji, Vanuatu, Tuvalu, Nauru and Tonga. Now a leaked $1 billion treaty with the Solomon Islands exposes the full scale of this fortress of human treaties. In this episode of Trumpet World, we examine why trusting in man over God leads to failure. The Unites States and Britain in Prophecy

    #217: Neo-Nazis Win German Election

    The neo-Nazi Alternative for Germany (AfD) won state elections in Saxony-Anhalt on September 6. This is the first time the AfD has won an election at the state level, but that doesn't mean it will be in charge just yet. Where will Germany go from here? Meanwhile, Israel is investing more in European security, the Lindsay Clancy trial continues to grip America, and Japan is constructing a super warship.

    #216: Does the Geologic Column Actually Exist?

    This episode of Trumpet World examines whether evolutionary science stands on a solid foundation. How do geologists know the age of a rock? While textbooks point to index fossils, digging deeper reveals a flaw in this reasoning that geologists have admitted for over a century. We explore how 19th-century assumptions built the geologic column, if radiometric dating actually confirms it, whether massive events like the Triassic extinction are myth or reality—and what it all means. “Does the Geologic Column Actually Exist?” Mystery of the Ages

    The State of Israel is under attack on multiple fronts. Figures as varied as Hunter Biden and Pope Leo XIV are spreading conspiracy theories to frame Israel as the source of the world’s evil. A U.S. nuclear deal with Syria meanwhile puts a terrorist state on Israel’s northern border closer to developing nuclear weapons. Why does everybody everywhere suddenly hate Israel?

    #211: America Gambles Everything

    In 2003, the NFL refused to run a Las Vegas tourism ad during the Super Bowl, claiming that merely mentioning the city crossed the line into endorsing sports betting. Fast forward to 2024, and the NFL hosted the Super Bowl in Las Vegas alongside official betting partners like FanDuel and DraftKings. State governments, major sports leagues and media giants that once held the line against gambling have completely surrendered. What sparked this massive shift, and why is America gambling away its future? The Ten Commandments
