Episode Intro: The Forlizzi Home Bible Study on the End Times

We're living in unprecedented times. Political upheaval, technological advances, cultural shifts, and global tensions are accelerating at a pace that leaves many feeling confused and unprepared. As believers, we need more than news commentary—we need biblical wisdom to understand what's happening and what's coming."Our weekly podcast videos bridge the gap between Sunday sermons and Monday reality. While church services provide spiritual nourishment, these studies give you practical biblical tools to navigate the specific challenges you face today. They help you connect Scripture to the headlines, prophecy to current events, and ancient wisdom to modern dilemmas. Without this consistent biblical lens on world events, it's easy to become either spiritually complacent or unnecessarily anxious.How We Study1.
