Every time violence erupts in Israel, prophecy headlines follow: This is it. The end is here! (Repent Now!) But what if prophecy was never about fear — and instead about what we do now?

In this episode of The Journalism of Everything Podcast, journalist Darisse Smith continues her conversation with Bishop William Gregg, diving into the end-times beliefs of Christianity, Islam, and Judaism — and the surprising similarities that unite them. From Ezekiel’s valley of dry bones to the modern-day war in Gaza, we explore how prophecy gets weaponized, why “God’s chosen people” isn’t a free pass, and what it really means to keep going in the face of destruction.

We also ask the unsettling question: What happens when the people once seen as victims become the aggressors? Israel was even the victim to start this most recent war, but now is such an unsettling aggressor that it is difficult to feel any sympathy for its plight.

If you’re ready for a challenging, thought-provoking look at faith, politics, and the end of days, this episode will make you think long after the headlines fade.
