Podcast appearances and mentions of Alan Smith

Alan Smith opens a new opinion and commentary format with Jeff Rowland, and this episode takes a hard look at Spiritual Pushback through Acts 19, Daniel 10, Ephesians 6, and the story of George Whitfield. This teaching makes one clear point, when God starts moving in your life, resistance often follows. Alan breaks down why pushback is often a sign of progress, how unseen opposition shows up in prayer, decision-making, and obedience, and why believers must learn how to stand instead of retreat. You'll also hear the connection between Whitfield's life, open-air preaching, and the spread of revival. From prison ministry to the fields of Philadelphia, the message stays the same, God's word does not need perfect conditions to work. Alan also brings Benjamin Franklin into the discussion, along with the way Whitfield's influence reached far beyond the church walls. The lesson then moves into Ephesians 6 and the armor of God. Truth, righteousness, faith, salvation, the word of God, and prayer all matter when spiritual pressure rises. If you've felt confusion, pressure, or resistance while trying to obey God, this message gives that experience a biblical frame. This episode is part teaching, part commentary, and part practical encouragement for anyone who wants to understand Pushback with clarity and faith.

Alan Smith opens Acts 19 and makes a direct case for why the Gospel causes an Uproar. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show Podcast, he connects Paul's message in Ephesus with the pressure believers still face today. The Gospel confronts culture, exposes idols, and calls people to real change. That truth unsettled the silver smiths in Acts, and it still unsettles comfortable religion now. Alan also ties this message to America's 250-year moment of reflection and the season of prayer and rededication now underway. He calls for a church that prays with courage, lives with conviction, and refuses to trade power for presentation. A faithful life, he says, should look like a place where God dwells. This teaching also reaches into the personal battles many believers know well. Alan talks about the places of failure, the work of the cross, and how God forms character in the very areas the enemy targets. He also points to the unseen spiritual battle behind everyday life, from Acts 19 to Daniel 10 and Ephesians 6:12. If you want a strong, Scripture-rooted conversation about the Gospel, spiritual warfare, and the call to live with clarity in a confused time, this episode is for you. Watch, listen, and take in the challenge to keep the message clear, keep the heart yielded, and keep moving when God opens a door. #TheSmithAndRowlandShow #Podcast #Gospel #Uproar #ChristianTeaching

Repent, what does that really mean, and what does "the kingdom of heaven is at hand" mean for believers today? On this special edition of The Smith and Rowland Show Podcast, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland take a hard look at repentance, unbelief, revival, and the literal meaning of the kingdom message preached by John the Baptist, Jesus, and the apostles. They also wrestle with a big question, if Scripture says the kingdom is at hand, how much of God's glory can a believer experience right now? This episode moves through: The meaning of repent in John 3 and the Gospels Why unbelief keeps people from entering into God's promises How literal Bible reading changes the way we understand prophecy What Revelation 21 says about the New Jerusalem coming down from God out of heaven Why revival in an apostate age still matters today The conversation is sharp, funny, and direct, with plenty of back-and-forth on biblical interpretation, end-times teaching, and the danger of turning plain Scripture into something else. If you care about the Bible, revival, the kingdom of God, and the question of what John meant by "at hand," this episode gives you a lot to think about. Watch as Alan and Jeff press into the real issue behind the message of repentance, not just sin in general, but unbelief in God's promise, God's power, and God's kingdom.

What happens when the Church starts reshaping God to fit culture, opinion, and comfort? In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland take on the hard issue of Deconstruction in the Church and the Beliefs behind it. This conversation gets straight to the point. They discuss why churches fall away, why pastors stop preaching on disputed subjects, and how rebellion against God's Word opens the door to apostasy. They also talk about the pressure points hitting the modern Church, including cultural secularization, political division, online church culture, celebrity pastors, moral compromise, and spiritual laziness in the pulpit. Alan and Jeff connect today's Deconstruction movement to biblical warnings about the great falling away in 2 Thessalonians and Jude. They challenge the idea that faith should be rebuilt around personal taste, public pressure, or a softer image of God. Instead, they call believers back to truth, sound doctrine, repentance, and courage in preaching. You'll also hear strong thoughts on: * why some churches are changing their Beliefs without saying so * how silence from the pulpit weakens the Church * why livestreams have value, but can't replace faithful gathering * how rebellion against godly authority prepares people to accept deception * why this moment calls for bold preaching, not retreat There is humor throughout, as always, but the message is serious. If you've been concerned about the state of the Church, the rise of Deconstruction, or the loss of biblical conviction in Christian spaces, this episode speaks to that head-on. Watch, share, and leave a comment with your thoughts. Is the modern Church standing firm, or is it giving ground where it should not?

Deconstruction isn't a trend to watch from a distance. It's changing churches, confusing believers, and pulling people away from biblical Christianity. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland speak plainly about Deconstruction, apostasy, spiritual drift, and the danger of toxic theology. They discuss how churches change their beliefs, why biblical inerrancy matters, and what happens when the authority of Scripture gets replaced by opinion, scandal, and cultural pressure. This Podcast also takes on hard issues that many avoid. The conversation covers the rise of apostate Christianity, the influence of Islam, the spiritual battle behind public deception, and the growing apathy inside the church. Smith and Rowland connect current events to the condition of the modern church and call believers to wake up, return to the Word of God, and preach the gospel without compromise. You'll also hear their strong warning about public scandal culture online, the effect it has on young believers, and how it can feed the Deconstruction of Christianity instead of building faith. This is a serious, direct discussion for Christians who still believe the Bible is true from cover to cover. If you've been concerned about where the church is headed, this episode puts those concerns on the table. If you've seen churches soften truth, blur doctrine, or stop speaking with clarity, this conversation will hit home. Watch, listen, and share with someone who needs a clear call back to Scripture.

Are we awake to the Time we're living in, or have we settled for a Religious Form that leaves no room for real power? In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland talk about spiritual seasons, discernment, and why so much of the modern church looks active while still asleep. Starting in Romans 13 and 2 Timothy 4, they press into a hard truth: believers must know the Time, preach the Word in season and out of season, and come out of empty Religious Form. This conversation gets straight to the point. They discuss how culture can reveal the season we're in, why many people resist end-times preaching, and how a slumbering spirit shows up in daily life. They also talk about walking in the light, not just as a moral ideal, but as divine protection from temptation and spiritual blindness. You'll also hear strong insight on:  * why preaching the gospel still works in a dark culture  * the danger of replacing substance with presentation  * how Form can overtake faith when people trust style more than truth  * why being ready for Christ's return means more than saying you're saved  * how to discern the season without falling into fear There is also a timely challenge here for the church. If the house is on fire, it makes no sense to keep trimming the yard. That picture runs through the whole episode. The call is clear: wake up, cast off darkness, and live with urgency. If you've felt frustrated by shallow church culture, confused by the times, or burdened by the state of the world, this episode will give you biblical clarity and needed conviction. Watch, listen, and take inventory. The Time matters. The Word still works. Religious Form won't carry anyone through this hour. #SmithAndRowlandShow #EndTimes #BiblicalDiscernment #ChristianPodcast #Romans13

Is there a spiritual force behind the War with Iran? In this episode, Smith and Rowland connect Bible prophecy, Jude, Daniel 10, and today's headlines. On Ep. 886 of The Smith and Rowland Show, the conversation turns straight to one of the most serious issues in the news right now: Iran, Israel, and the spiritual battle behind the conflict. As they walk through Jude and Enoch's prophecy, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland discuss the difference between the rapture and the second coming, then connect that teaching to Daniel 10 and the "prince of Persia." This episode focuses on the idea of a Principality over Iran, and what that could mean for the current War in the Middle East. They talk about anti-Semitism, the threat against Israel, the role of prayer and fasting, and why this battle can't be viewed as only political or military. Instead, they argue that what's happening in the natural world points to a much larger spiritual conflict. You'll hear discussion on:  * Jude 14 and Enoch's prophecy  * Daniel 10 and the prince of Persia  * Iran's long hostility toward Israel and the United States  * Gog and Magog, Ezekiel 38, and end-times prophecy  * Why intercession, prayer, and fasting matter right now There are also classic Smith and Rowland moments throughout the episode, including a memorable sponsor mention from the "Purple Truck," which brings a little humor into a weighty conversation. If you follow Bible prophecy, current events, spiritual warfare, or end-times teaching, this episode gives you a lot to think about. It's direct, urgent, and rooted in Scripture.

What does the Bible say Apostasy looks like in real life? In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland walk through Jude 12 and 13 and talk plainly about the Marks of apostates, why they're dangerous, and how they work inside the church. This conversation gets to the heart of a hard truth. Apostasy isn't always loud or easy to spot. Sometimes it comes dressed in spiritual language, Bible talk, and promises of deeper insight. Yet Jude gives strong warning signs. He describes hidden rocks, clouds without water, fruitless trees, raging waves, and wandering stars. Smith and Rowland unpack those images and show why they still matter right now. Along the way, this episode also touches on spiritual elitism, false depth, and the danger of people who mix truth with error. That's where this message hits hard. The focus isn't on hype or religious performance. It's on Christ, the cross, and the presence of God. As Alan and Jeff explain, when people drift from the simplicity of the gospel, they become easy targets for deception. There's also plenty of the humor listeners expect from The Smith and Rowland Show, but the core message stays sharp. Apostates are predators seeking whom they may devour, and the church needs discernment. If you've ever struggled to identify false teaching, or wondered how deception spreads among sincere believers, this episode will give you a clear Bible-based framework. Watch, listen, and weigh it against Scripture. Then share it with someone who cares about truth, discernment, and the last days.

What happens when a Metaphor gets treated like an Allegory? In this Podcast, Smith and Rowland tackle why that shift can distort Scripture and feed apostasy. In Episode 884 of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland dig into Jude, dispensationalism, spiritual gifts, and the danger of reading hidden meanings into texts that should be taken plainly. They draw a sharp line between Metaphor and Allegory, and they explain why that difference matters if you want to handle the Bible with clarity and honesty. This conversation also gets into continuationism, sign gifts, the rapture, dominion, literal hermeneutics, and the kind of intellectual pride that can twist truth into something else. Along the way, they share personal stories about divine impartation, childlike faith, and the power of the Holy Spirit to open blind eyes. If you're trying to sort through Bible interpretation, apostasy in Jude, or the debate around dispensational theology, this episode gives you a lot to think about. It's direct, thoughtful, and grounded in Scripture. Topics covered include: the Book of Jude and apostasy, Metaphor vs Allegory in Bible study, dispensationalism and continuation of gifts, literal interpretation of Scripture, the rapture of the church, spiritual blindness and divine impartation, the power of the resurrection Watch, think it through, and share it with someone who cares about sound biblical teaching. #SmithAndRowlandShow #BookOfJude #Dispensationalism #BibleStudy #ChristianPodcast

Arrogance or Humility, the Choice shapes more than attitude, it reveals how we handle authority, truth, and spiritual conflict. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland continue their study through Jude and land on one of the most striking verses in the chapter, Michael the archangel refusing to bring a railing accusation against Satan and saying, "The Lord rebuke thee." From there, the conversation opens up in a serious and practical way. They connect Jude 4, 8, 9, and 10 to the marks of apostasy, the danger of pride in spiritual talk, and the difference between fleshly boldness and godly Humility. They also discuss false teachers, authority, Moses' body, spiritual warfare, and why careless accusation can say more about our own hearts than we think. This episode is for anyone trying to read Jude with clarity and apply it to church life today. If you've ever heard people speak lightly about rebuking Satan, attacking leaders, or using spiritual language with pride, this message gets right to the heart of it. Arrogance sounds strong, but Humility stands under God's authority. That's the Choice in front of all of us. Topics in this episode include: Jude Bible study Michael and Satan in Jude 1:9 apostasy in the last days spiritual authority and submission false teachers in the church Moses and the body of Moses pride vs humility what it means to say, "The Lord rebuke thee" Watch, listen, and weigh the message carefully. This one presses hard on the spirit of the age. #Jude #BibleStudy #Humility #SpiritualWarfare #TheSmithAndRowlandShow

Apostasy rarely starts with a loud denial of truth. It starts small, through unbelief, pride, rebellion, and a slow rejection of Authority. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, the conversation moves straight into Jude and tackles how Apostasy grows in the church, in ministry, and in the heart. Alan Smith, Jeff Rowland, and guest Joel Goddard talk through Jude's warning signs, including murmuring, complaining, false grace, defiling the flesh, and resisting God-given Authority. They also unpack how Sonship shapes the way we respond to correction, covering, and obedience. This is a serious and honest discussion about spiritual drift, prophetic influence, leadership, and what it means to stay in the place God assigned. Along the way, they cover: how grace gets twisted into permission to sin, why leaving your place of Authority brings real danger, how pride can corrupt gifting, why Sonship and submission are tied together, and how Jude speaks with striking clarity to the church right now. There's humor at the start, but the heart of this episode is weighty. If you've wrestled with rebellion, church leadership, spiritual pride, or the fear of slowly drifting from truth, this conversation will give you a lot to think about. Watch, listen, and examine your own walk through the lens of Jude. #Apostasy #Authority #Sonship #BookOfJude #ChristianPodcast

Who are the Creepers in Jude 8, and why does Jude warn the church so strongly about them? In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, the conversation gets straight to the heart of apostasy, false teachers, spiritual authority, and what the Bible says about the last days. Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland walk through Jude 8 and connect it to Sodom and Gomorrah, Lot, Abraham's intercession, the rapture of the church, and the growing danger of replacing truth with error. They also talk about how false teaching slips into the church, how grace gets twisted into permission for sin, and why rebellion against God-given authority is such a serious mark of deception. Along the way, they discuss: the warning signs of apostasy in the church, what Jude means by dreamers and Creepers, how Lot reflects compromise in an evil culture, why Abraham's prayer for Sodom still speaks to us now, how spiritual authority is ignored and attacked, and why the doctrine of the rapture matters so much in the last days. This episode is direct, sobering, and grounded in Scripture. If you've been trying to understand Jude 8, false teachers, or how the church should respond in a time of confusion, this Bible discussion will give you a lot to think about. Watch through to the end, because this sets up the next part of the series on the identifiable marks of those who creep in unaware.

Could Replacement Theology be part of the Apostasy of the Last Days? In this episode, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland walk through Jude and deal with a sobering warning the church can't afford to ignore. This conversation starts light, then turns serious fast. In Episode 878 of The Smith and Rowland Show, Jeff and Alan dig into the book of Jude and talk about unbelief, false teaching, moral compromise, and the danger of replacing what God has clearly said. Along the way, they connect Israel in the wilderness, the fallen angels, and Sodom and Gomorrah to a pattern Jude lays out for the Last Days. They also take a hard look at Replacement Theology and why it matters so much. This isn't treated like a side issue. Instead, they show how replacing Israel, replacing God's order, or replacing biblical truth can lead straight into Apostasy. This episode gets personal, too. Both men openly reflect on areas of unbelief in their own lives, especially when God's leading doesn't line up with human logic. Because of that, the discussion feels honest, weighty, and very real. Inside this episode: Jude's warning about unbelief and judgment, how Apostasy starts in the mind and ends in the flesh, why Replacement Theology is tied to a broader replacement mindset, how false teachers turn grace into permission for sin, and why discernment matters more than ever in the Last Days. If you've been studying Jude, Bible prophecy, false doctrine, or the spiritual condition of the church, this episode will give you a lot to think about. Watch, listen closely, and share this with someone who takes the Word of God seriously. #ReplacementTheology #Apostasy #LastDays #BookOfJude #BibleProphecy

When does Deception become Delusion? In this Smith and Rowland Show Podcast, the conversation turns urgent, biblical, and deeply personal. In Episode 875, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland continue their study through Jude and press into a hard question: what happens when deception goes unchecked? They draw a sharp line between Deception of the mind and Delusion of the spirit, then connect that warning to apostasy, unbelief, and the growing rejection of God's truth in the church and culture. This episode also tackles major issues head-on, including replacement theology, dominion theology, kingdom now teaching, anti-Semitism, and God's covenant purposes for Israel. As they work through Jude verse 5, they argue that last-days apostasy doesn't just come from outside the church. It creeps in quietly, then spreads through false teaching, pride, and spiritual blindness. Along the way, they discuss: how apostasy enters the church the difference between deception and delusion why unbelief matters more than most people think why Israel remains central in biblical prophecy how replacement theology distorts grace why political ideas often grow out of theological beliefs how last-days error prepares the way for deeper blindness This is a serious Bible discussion, but it's also practical. If you've watched public voices shift, truth get blurred, or biblical convictions weaken in real time, this episode will give you a framework to think clearly. If you're following this Jude study, this is an important one. Verse 5 opens up far more than most people expect. Watch, listen, and share with someone who wants a stronger biblical view of apostasy, grace, Israel, and the last days. #SmithAndRowlandShow #Deception #Delusion #BibleProphecy #Podcast

What kept Israel out of the promise, Fear or Faith? In this episode, Smith and Rowland open Jude 5 and show why that warning still matters now. This conversation gets right to the heart of unbelief. Using Israel in the wilderness as the key example, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland talk through how saved people can still miss their inheritance through unbelief, fear, pride, and compromise. That makes Jude a hard book, but also a necessary one. They connect Jude 5 with Numbers 14, Hebrews 4, 1 Corinthians 10, and the letters to the churches in Revelation. As a result, this episode builds a clear picture of last-days apostasy, the danger of fear-driven teaching, and why believers must still contend for the faith. You'll hear strong insight on: the unbelief of Israel and why it stands as a warning to the church, the difference between salvation and inheritance, how Fear can shape choices more than Faith, why apostasy often starts with a turn from God's Word, the battle over literal truth versus twisted meaning, and why the next move of God may be rising in young people with Joshua and Caleb faith. There's also a clear call here for Word and Spirit to stay together. Right doctrine matters. So does first love. When those are torn apart, people drift. When they stay joined, lives change. If you've been studying Jude, end-times prophecy, apostasy in the church, or the spiritual lesson of Israel's wilderness journey, this episode will give you a lot to think about. Watch, share, and stay with this series as The Smith and Rowland Show continues through the book of Jude. #SmithAndRowlandShow #BookOfJude #Israel #FaithOverFear #BibleStudy

What happens when sincere believers are missing part of the message? In this episode, Alan Smith walks through Acts 19 and shows how God fills the gaps, corrects false confidence, and calls people into deeper truth. "Apostasy: Actions Against God's Purpose" is a strong message about partial belief, spiritual hunger, and the danger of settling for less than what God has said. As Paul meets disciples in Ephesus, he finds people who know repentance, but don't yet understand the full gospel, the Holy Spirit, or the name of Jesus in its fullness. That moment opens up a powerful lesson for the church today. This teaching covers: how Acts 19 reveals gaps in belief and understanding, why partial truth can still leave people spiritually unprepared, what baptism, obedience, and the Holy Spirit mean in this passage, why signs and miracles mattered in Paul's ministry, how pride keeps people from admitting what they still need to learn, and why the Word of God has more lasting value than anything this world can offer. Along the way, this sermon speaks plainly about life, death, eternity, and the new birth. It also points to a hard truth many avoid, our earthly success fades fast, but what God does in the heart lasts forever. That's why this message presses past surface religion and gets to the deeper issue, whether our lives are aligned with God's purpose or drifting through actions that pull us away from it. If you've ever wrestled with questions about the Holy Spirit, spiritual gifts, Christian growth, or Apostasy in the church, this message will give you a lot to think about. It's honest, grounded in Scripture, and centered on the lasting work of God. Watch, listen closely, and let the truth of Acts 19 search your heart. #Apostasy #BookOfActs #HolySpirit #BibleTeaching #ChristianFaith

What does it really mean to contend for the Faith in the Last Days? In this episode, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland open Jude and confront the warning signs of apostasy head-on. This conversation gets straight to the point. Jude's message wasn't vague, and it wasn't meant only for another time. It speaks to the church right now. Alan and Jeff walk through Jude 1 through 5 and connect it to Israel in the wilderness, showing how people can witness God's power, enjoy His blessing, and still refuse obedience when it matters most. They break down why Contending for the faith takes more than talk. It takes courage, obedience, and a willingness to stand on God's Word when false teaching creeps in. They also explain the difference between salvation and inheritance, why miracles don't replace obedience, and why Joshua and Caleb still matter as examples for believers today. Along the way, this episode covers: how Jude warns about men creeping into the church unnoticed, why turning grace into license leads to judgment, what Israel's failure in the wilderness teaches the church, why obedience matters more than chasing miracles, how to recognize false teaching in the Last Days, and why believers must earnestly contend for the faith once delivered to the saints. If you care about biblical truth, apostasy in the church, end times deception, and standing firm in your walk with Christ, this episode is worth your full attention. Watch, share, and stay in the Word. #ContendingForTheFaith #LastDays #Faith #BookOfJude #ChristianPodcast

A sharp warning for the Last Days. In this episode, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland break down the Message of apostasy in Jude and 2 Peter, and why it still matters right now. Episode 871 of The Smith and Rowland Show focuses on a serious Bible theme, false teachers, spiritual infiltration, and the kind of Message that turns the grace of God into corruption. As they walk through Jude verse by verse, Alan and Jeff connect the warnings of Scripture to the church in the Last Days with urgency and clarity. This conversation looks closely at: the "certain men" who creep in unawares, the difference between truth and deception, how false teaching spreads, why mockery of Christ's return matters, and how the warnings of Jude, Daniel, and 2 Peter still speak to the church today. They also talk about spiritual warfare, unbelief, the wilderness generation, and why the Message of the Apostles was never meant to be soft or casual. Instead, it was meant to wake people up, call believers to contend for the faith, and expose what threatens the church from within. If you've been studying Jude, Bible prophecy, the Last Days, apostasy, or the return of Christ, this episode gives you a lot to think through. It's direct, Scripture-centered, and grounded in the conviction that God's Word still tells the truth about our time. Watch, listen, and weigh the Message carefully. #LastDays #Apostles #BibleProphecy #BookOfJude #TheSmithAndRowlandShow

Are we watching the Last Day Apostacy unfold in real time? In this Podcast episode, The Smith and Rowland Show open the book of Jude and lays out a direct warning for the church. This episode starts a powerful series on Jude, one of the most overlooked books in the New Testament. Jeff Rowland and Alan Smith talk through apostasy in the church, the falling away warned about in 2 Thessalonians, deceiving spirits, false teachers, and why sound doctrine still matters right now. They also connect Jude to Revelation, the seven churches, and the steady drift from truth to compromise. As a result, this conversation hits hard for anyone trying to make sense of spiritual confusion, church decline, and the growing attack on biblical truth. Inside this episode: Jude as a roadmap for the Last Day church How apostasy moves from subtle error to open denial Why deception is more than intellectual, it's spiritual The danger of replacing Scripture with opinion and trend How believers can stand firm and overcome in an apostate age There's also some classic Smith and Rowland humor at the start, including a memorable "real salt" sponsor bit, before the conversation turns serious and deeply relevant. If you care about Bible prophecy, the church, the rapture, or the warning signs of the times, this is an episode worth hearing all the way through. This is more than a headline topic. It's a sober look at what Scripture says happens before Christ's return, and how believers are called to respond. Watch, share, and stay with this series as the book of Jude unfolds episode by episode on The Smith and Rowland Show. #LastDay #Apostacy #BookOfJude #BibleProphecy #Podcast

New York, Iran, and end-times claims are colliding fast. In Ep. 860, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland lay out why theology always turns into action, and why that matters right now. This episode tracks the headlines through a biblical lens, from rising tension with Iran to growing anti-Semitism, and then to New York City's new mayor, Mamdani. Along the way, the conversation connects Islam's end-times expectations (the Madhi, also spelled Mahdi) with the kind of deception Jesus warned about in Matthew 24. The goal is simple, spot the pattern, stay grounded in Scripture, and don't get numbed by the noise. Topics covered:  * Iran, war risk, and the spiritual story behind the conflict  * Dominionism, replacement theology, and where the ideas overlap  * The "hidden imam" and 12ver Shiite end-times teaching  * False prophets, discernment, and why signs and wonders require caution  * Why Christians can't ignore Politics when leaders shape culture and public life Referenced in the discussion: an article from Prophecy Newswatch (also shared via kingdompropheticsociety.org).

When a Pastor falls, who decides they're "done"? In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland talk candidly about failure, repentance, consequences, and what restoration really means in real church life. They start with a trust problem many people feel today, especially after public scandals. Then they take a hard look at how Christians treat "fallen" leaders, why some sins get spotlighted while others get ignored, and why people often confuse God's forgiveness with human approval. Along the way, they unpack a key idea, the consequences are often built into the sin itself, even after repentance. You'll also hear a practical breakdown of common warning signs that lead to moral collapse, including pride ("It'll never happen to me"), being too busy to stay close to God, and unhealthy boundaries with the opposite sex. The conversation stays grounded in Scripture while still being honest about what happens in the real world after a fall, including shame, self-disqualification, and the long road back. In addition, the guys share a new way to follow the show: full Podcast episodes are now posted as readable blog posts on kingdompropheticsociety.org, so you can revisit the core ideas in writing.

Culture and law are colliding, and Christian schools are in the crosshairs. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland break down a fast-moving Debate over whether the progressive left is legislating Christianity out of American life, one regulation at a time. First, they react to examples from California, New York, and Colorado, where accreditation rules and state mandates pressure faith-based schools, camps, and adoption agencies to conform. Next, they discuss Virginia House Bill 359 and the push to treat tax credits as public funds, which can bring new control over private Christian education. Along the way, they talk about separation of church and state, vouchers, and why churches and parents must take responsibility for educating Children without trading convictions for government approval. Listen for a clear warning about "small compromises" and why the "old-fashioned way" still matters when pressure keeps rising. #TheSmithAndRowlandShow #ChristianEducation #ReligiousFreedom #Podcast #CultureDebate

Unity sounds great, until it turns into Uniformity. In this Podcast episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Jeff Rowland and Alan Smith break down the difference, then apply it to a growing ecumenical push where "unity" gets treated as the highest virtue. First, they react to a covenant between church leaders and the claim that every division is a sin. Next, they compare that claim to what Scripture actually teaches, because some divisions are commanded and some convictions can't be traded away. Along the way, they talk about where real Christian Unity starts (the blood of Christ), why signed documents don't create spiritual agreement, and how "unity" can get used as pressure to compromise on salvation and the gospel. If you care about Bible authority, discernment, and the line between cooperation and compromise, this episode lays it out plainly. #Unity #Uniformity #Podcast #ChristianUnity #Ecumenism

Trump at Davos sparked big claims from Glenn Beck, and this episode breaks down the Conclusion. Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland react to Trump's Davos speech, the talk around Greenland, and what “peace through strength” looks like when the economy becomes the big stick. They also weigh Beck's view that Trump put global groups on notice, from the United Nations to the Davos crowd, and discuss how tough language, tariffs, and trade pressure can shift outcomes without firing a shot. The conversation turns back home to Minnesota and the hard truth that foreign policy wins don't fix broken local leadership.

Can Christianity stand without its Jewish roots?

They break down why the Old Testament matters, why dispensational Bible teaching shapes their view, and why they see this trend as a real threat to faith, culture, and the future of the country. Expect serious points, sharp humor, and a warning about the Destruction that follows when Religion gets rewritten to fit an agenda.

Preterism, Replacement Theology, and why it matters right now. Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland break down full vs partial views, show why literal Bible reading matters, and explain how these ideas shape sermons, seminaries, and even public policy. In this episode of the Smith and Rowland Show, the conversation stays practical and direct. You'll hear clear definitions, common claims (AD 70, Nero, the timing of Revelation), and the key concern, once prophecy gets treated like flexible symbolism, it gets easier to downplay Israel, weaken end-times hope, and drift from plain reading. Topics covered include:  * Full Preterism vs partial Preterism (what each one claims)  * Why switching methods in Revelation creates confusion  * How Replacement Theology shifts the way people view Israel  * Revelation 1:19 and the case for a future, prophetic Revelation 4-22  * Why premillennial eschatology keeps the blessed hope in view Website: kingdompropheticsociety.org Daily Podcast: smithandrowlandshow.podbean.com Also on Amazon, Apple, and Spotify. #Preterism #ReplacementTheology #Christianity #BibleProphecy #Eschatology

What you believe about end-times prophecy shapes what you expect from Christian living today. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland tackle the Preterism Debate, from full preterism to partial preterism, and explain why it matters for doctrine, church life, and public policy. You'll hear a clear case for why full Preterism crosses a line by denying Christ's future return and the bodily resurrection. The conversation also covers how partial preterism often leads to replacement theology, why that shifts how people view Israel, and how theology can move straight into politics. Along the way, they lay out a leadership principle that still hits hard in 2026, expectations can build people up, or they can be used to pull leaders down. If you're serious about Christianity, this is a grounded, direct talk about staying faithful to Scripture, keeping hope alive, and refusing interpretations that empty key texts of their force.

Tucker Carlson's new faith talk sounds bold, but bad theology spreads fast. Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland break down why a Libertarian lens can't replace Bible doctrine, how Replacement Theology twists Israel and the church, and why the Bible doesn't support the claim that Christianity rejects all “collective punishment.” This episode covers original sin, federal headship, and what Scripture shows about corporate guilt and corporate salvation. It also puts “just war” claims to the test, where real-world conflict, civilian harm, and national consequences don't fit neat slogans. You'll also hear why this moment feels like a Convergence of politics, culture, and theology, and why that mix can mislead people who are new to the faith.

Church and state are colliding, and the results are showing up in real policy. In this Smith and Rowland Show Podcast, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland talk about Israel, Gaza, and why theology can't stay theoretical when it starts steering national decisions. They break down how Replacement Theology and parts of Reformed Theology shape views on Israel, and why that matters for America heading into a new year. They also lay out the biblical role of government versus the role of the Church, and why blurred lines create confusion fast. The conversation connects current events, Romans 13, and the long-term impact of Dispensationalism on how many Christians read prophecy and foreign policy.

A turning point is hitting the conservative movement, and it's tied to theology as much as it's tied to Politics. Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland lay out why Replacement Theology is showing up on big platforms, how it shapes foreign policy, and why it pushes an America-only mindset that weakens support for Israel. They also draw a clear line between healthy dialogue and the kind of compromise that erases biblical distinction between the church and Israel. This episode covers the influence of figures like Doug Wilson, the pull of libertarian isolationism, and the internal fight over who steers the movement next. The warning is simple, ditching Israel isn't a bold new idea, it's a Disaster with a long track record.

A different Jesus gets posted online every week, and a lot of it is pure Heresy. In this Podcast episode, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland respond to a viral Concept that says Jesus never taught the need for His blood, and that Paul changed the message. They break down why that claim collapses once you read the whole Bible, not a hand-picked slice. You'll hear a clear defense of progressive revelation, why Paul's writings matter, and how “keep the commandments” gets twisted into a works-based, bloodless gospel. They also explain how this thinking feeds replacement theology, sidelines the Holy Spirit, and turns salvation into self-help.

Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland light a fresh fire on Dispensationalism in this fast-paced podcast episode. From the K9 Congregation opener to a serious walk through progressive revelation, they argue that true Reformed theology cannot avoid dispensational thought. They trace how revelation unfolds from Genesis to Revelation, explain the “parenthesis” of the church age, and show why Israel, the rapture, and Paul's “my gospel” demand clear distinctions. They also expose the spiritual dysphoria that comes when believers mix covenant theology, replacement theology, and prophecy without rightly dividing the word of truth. If you want a clearer view of Israel, the church, and your own growth in Christ, this conversation will sharpen your thinking and deepen your confidence in Scripture. #SmithAndRowland #Dispensationalism #BibleTeaching #Podcast #ProgressiveRevelation
