News And Views Podcast
Hosted by News And Views
A council of elders interprets current global events and political news through the lens of biblical end-times prophecy.
This is a roundtable discussion where four co-hosts, who identify as elders, take turns delivering sermon-like analyses of news and prophecy. They interpret current events—like the decline of the US dollar, geopolitical conflicts, and the rise of AI—as signs of the imminent fulfillment of biblical end-times prophecies, particularly the fall of "Babylon." The show's purpose is to warn and guide their audience, whom they call "Mishpacha" (family), to prepare for a coming societal collapse and the establishment of a new kingdom.
“Unlike typical news commentary, this show interprets every event through a specific prophetic framework, viewing modern geopolitics as a direct continuation of biblical narratives like the struggle between Jacob and Esau. The collective format, with four elders rotating long, exegetical monologues, also stands out from typical co-hosted conversations.”
Who hosts this show
News And Views is a podcast hosted by a council of four elders (Zaqenim) who analyze world events, from geopolitics to social trends, through the framework of biblical prophecy. The hosts, identified as Zaqen Johnson, Zaqen JD Sauls, Zaqen Bateman, and Zaqen Hayslett, offer wisdom and insight on what they believe their deity is communicating to his people about the "end times." The show encourages listeners to prepare spiritually for a prophesied collapse of the current world system, which they refer to as "Babylon." One of the hosts, Zaqen Johnson, is associated with Kingdom Life Assembly in Indianapolis.
