11/9/23 Worldwide Suicide "Fallen From Grace" part 4 As powerful as America is and may continue to be, she cannot conquer the entire world by herself. And sure enough, the Bible reveals a complex web of entities globally that will join together to accomplish the fulfilment of these prophecies. While this brings with it certain difficulties by default, like foreign slave labor making your sneakers, we believe that this global consolidation can only happen among nations that have turned their backs on God; therefore the real danger is less about dollars and more about souls. Can the world survive the rise of global apostasy? Today’s show is called “Worldwide Suicide,” and with a title like that you sure don’t want to miss it. Welcome. https://www.faithdrivenentrepreneur.org/blog/2018/10/16/the-dangers-of-globalism For our 14th episode of Season Three, Something’s Happening Here spends the week looking at social indicators that indicate that Western society has fallen from God’s grace; and what it means prophetically.

11/8/23 Babylon the Great is Fallen "Fallen From Grace" part 3 S3E14p3 Now that we’ve established that America will continue to play an outsized role in the events prophesied in the Bible, we must ask: Who else is involved? And what does it mean to be “fallen” from God? Is there anything we can do to recover from a fallen position? And how does recognizing that condition help us navigate the messy world until Jesus comes? Welcome to today’s show, “Babylon the Great is Fallen,” where we will see just how broad and all-encompassing this wicked Biblical ruler really is. https://www.biblestudytools.com/bible-study/topical-studies/what-does-it-mean-to-fall-from-grace.html For our 14th episode of Season Three, Something’s Happening Here spends the week looking at social indicators that indicate that Western society has fallen from God’s grace; and what it means prophetically.

11/7/23 The Beast From The Earth "Fallen From Grace" part 2 I’m an American. My ancestors came on the Mayflower and I’ve had family in the New World ever since. I’ve always had an America-dominant view of the world. Now, you might say that’s BECAUSE I have such long roots here. After all, the last name Hicks may not be the most attractive family name in America, but it is one of the most common! This is the home of my people for 400 years. But could it be more than that too? Today on Something’s Happening Here we will see that maybe, just maybe, there’s a deeper reason why America has such a dominant image and role, not just in my life, but across the world. Put on your prophecy hats, friends, for today’s show called “The Beast From the Earth.” https://www.quora.com/Why-does-it-feel-like-everything-happens-only-in-the-US For our 14th episode of Season Three, Something’s Happening Here spends the week looking at social indicators that indicate that Western society has fallen from God’s grace; and what it means prophetically.

11/6/23 Antisemitism in 2023 "Fallen From Grace" part 1 Despite the White House Press Secretary immediately trying to pivot to Islamophobia when asked directly about rising antisemitism in America, there actually is a documented and alarming rise in antisemitism in America, following the outbreak of war in the Middle East. But while we will look at some data behind this phenomenon today, we’re always more interested in the spiritual dimension of the problem we’re discussing. So today, and all week long, we’ll be looking at indicators of a societal fall from God’s grace, and what Bible prophecy has to tell us about it. I’m Steve Hicks, Director of Podcast Ministries for Talking Donkey International. Welcome to a new episode, called “Fallen From Grace,” starting with today’s show, “Antisemitism in 2023.” https://www.cnn.com/2023/10/31/politics/antisemitism-unstable-world-analysis/index.html https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/gaza-crisis-antisemitism-us-hamas-israel-palestine-rcna123163 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-67281042 For our 14th episode of Season Three, Something’s Happening Here spends the week looking at social indicators that indicate that Western society has fallen from God’s grace; and what it means prophetically.

11/3/23 Worldwide Conflict At Home "Nothing New Under the Sun - Unfortunately" part 5 As we finish up the week on Something’s Happening Here, we look at the consequences of unleashing onto the world, and our society in America, the spiritual battle of history that we’ve discussed since Monday. Spoiler alert: it’s not good. Rather than an A.I. Update this week, instead we will look at America’s fall from God’s grace on full display, and where it is leading prophetically. Put on your Prophecy Hats today, friends, as we look to the past to glimpse into the future with today’s show, “Worldwide Conflict At Home.” https://www.dailywire.com/news/pro-palestinian-activists-in-nyc-chant-nazi-sentiment-at-anti-semitic-march-there-is-only-one-solution https://www.theblaze.com/news/video-texas-high-schoolers-chant-infamous-slogan-viewed-as-call-to-wipe-israel-off-the-map-amid-muslim-student-association-walkout https://www.theblaze.com/news/kjp-antisemitism-question-forced-to-issue-clarification https://www.dailywire.com/news/democrat-calls-for-house-to-censure-tlaib https://www.dailywire.com/news/lawmaker-calls-for-tlaib-to-lose-clearance-over-security-concerns-her-allegiance-lies-with-hamas Our thirteenth episode focuses again on the recent outbreak of war in Israel, looking to history and Scripture to help understand its spiritual significance.

11/2/23 History on a Loop "Nothing New Under the Sun - Unfortunately" part 4 At its heart, the conflict in Israel is a territorial one: each side claims rightful ownership of the land in question. This clearly has its roots in British rule over the area following World War One, no one would dispute that. I dare say many would even concede that the dispute dates back further, to the Middle Ages, or perhaps even ancient times. But what happens when we trace it back to the earliest of times? Pre-civilization times? Is it possible that the picture actually gets clearer, the farther back in time you look? The entire premise of this week’s episode of Something’s Happening Here is that there is “nothing new under the sun,” which is why today’s show is called “History on a Loop.” https://www.ushistory.org/civ/4g.asp Our thirteenth episode focuses again on the recent outbreak of war in Israel, looking to history and Scripture to help understand its spiritual significance.

10/31/23 Any Other Name "Nothing New Under the Sun - Unfortunately" part 2 We are fond of etymologies on Something’s Happening Here, and we believe that names carry with them certain spiritual power. Earlier in Season Three, we had a whole show called “Roman Roll Call,” where we explored this phenomenon historically and prophetically. Today we are going to apply those same ideas to the warring parties in the Middle East: Israel and Hamas, and putting our faith where the language leads us. Welcome to today’s show, called “Any Other Name,” which may open our eyes to the power of languages and the spirits that fuel them. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/what-is-hamas-what-to-know-about-its-origins-leaders-and-funding Our thirteenth episode focuses again on the recent outbreak of war in Israel, looking to history and Scripture to help understand its spiritual significance.

10/30/23 The War in Israel "Nothing New Under the Sun - Unfortunately" part 1 The entire world is captivated by the latest war in Israel, wherein the warring sides are each aiming for the total destruction of the other. Corporate news reports that the American government is “bracing for the worst” over there, whatever that means. But while the world watches to see what’s going to happen, we will instead look to the past all week long, to learn what has already happened, and what it has meant to God as recorded in Scripture. I’m Steve Hicks, Director of Podcast Ministries for Talking Donkey International. Welcome to a challenging episode of Something’s Happening Here, beginning with today’s show, “The War in Israel.” https://www.bbc.com/news/newsbeat-44124396 Our thirteenth episode focuses again on the recent outbreak of war in Israel, looking to history and Scripture to help understand its spiritual significance.

10/27/23 World War One All Over Again "Take Heed Lest Your Heart…" part 5 At this point, everyone must realize that the next great frontier for military technology is Artificial Intelligence. But did we realize it would happen this soon? To close out the week on Something’s Happening Here, we get a hint that perhaps the days of Skynet won’t be limited to science fiction much longer. Who had “autonomous Chinese A.I. military robots” on your 2023 craziness Bingo card? But the spiritual implication of this problem runs deeper than that, which is why this week’s A.I. Update is called “World War One All Over Again.” https://www.theblaze.com/news/us-seeks-to-beat-china-in-ai-arms-race-to-develop-autonomous-robots-weapons-systems We at Something’s Happening Here don’t want to violate Christ’s warning in Luke 21:34, so this week our twelve episode of Season Three will be a week of updates, revisiting ongoing big topics from previous episodes.

10/26/23 Hail to the Thieves "Take Heed Lest Your Heart…" part 4 I remember growing up in a world where any young child could understand the potential within him- or herself by aspiring to be the President someday. Fast forward to the present day, when we are living under the specter of a Presidential election between two incumbents, both of whom are accused of large-scale financial crimes. Seems we need to re-evaluate the prestige of the office of the POTUS. On today’s show, called “Hail to the Thieves,” we look at the current status of the criminal investigations and proceedings of both Mr.’s Trump and Biden.

10/25/23 The Fog of War "Take Heed Lest Your Heart…" part 3 Do we really have to have a wartime update when the purpose this week is NOT to overburden our hearts? Yes, unfortunately, the war in Israel is just too big to ignore. But I’ll tell you what: I’ll try to make it mostly a media coverage update, without all the blood and guts. On today’s show called “The Fog of War,” we get to watch as the fog that envelops the corporate media lifts away in real time, at least as of the date of this recording. I’m Steve Hicks, and this is Something’s Happening Here. https://apnews.com/article/israel-palestinians-gaza-hamas-war-biden-rafah-e062825a375d9eb62e95509cab95b80c https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/gaza-hospital-blast-what-we-know-about-explosion-2023-10-18/ https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/israel-tries-to-back-up-claims-it-didnt-attack-gaza-hospital/ar-AA1iqDrW https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/oct/18/joe-biden-israel-news-gaza-al-ahli-baptist-hospital-explosion-jordan-summit-cancelled-protests We at Something’s Happening Here don’t want to violate Christ’s warning in Luke 21:34, so this week our twelve episode of Season Three will be a week of updates, revisiting ongoing big topics from previous episodes.

10/23/23 Overcharged "Take Heed Lest Your Heart…" part 1 Good grief, we’re already dealing with tumult in the US House of Representatives, a horrifying war in Israel that has brought its own war of rhetoric worldwide, another potential presidential impeachment with Trump 2.0 looming over it all, and the specter of Artificial Intelligence upending the basic rules of how we understand the world around us. Can we really handle any more? This week on the program, rather than take a production break to catch our breath, we’ll instead visit some updates about the big stories of the moment, and what God might be doing through each one. I’m Steve Hicks, Director of Podcast Ministries for Talking Donkey International, and this is Something’s Happening Here. https://www.helpguide.org/articles/stress/burnout-prevention-and-recovery.htm https://www.youtube.com/shorts/f5tiOY9ia68 We at Something’s Happening Here don’t want to violate Christ’s warning in Luke 21:34, so this week our twelve episode of Season Three will be a week of updates, revisiting ongoing big topics from previous episodes.

10/24/23 And the New Speaker Is(n’t)… "Take Heed Lest Your Heart…" part 2 Two weeks ago I suggested that the Republican rebellion against then-sitting Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy was the opening salvo of a much larger conflict to come. History is still waiting to see if that will be true or not, but at least for now the infighting among Republicans appears to have gotten worse, not better. Today on Something’s Happening Here we will look at the current state of the US House of Republicans, as of the date of this recording, and what these events may signal is coming prophetically. https://www.cnn.com/2023/10/18/politics/jim-jordan-speaker-bid/index.html We at Something’s Happening Here don’t want to violate Christ’s warning in Luke 21:34, so this week our twelve episode of Season Three will be a week of updates, revisiting ongoing big topics from previous episodes.

10/20/23: Rise of the Machines "Israel at War" part 5 With the advent of a new, very hot war in Israel; and the ongoing war in Ukraine; and the threats of war rumbling around the globe in various places; we have much reason to wonder how all this brand-new Artificial Intelligence technology will be employed to achieve victory over our enemies. And sure enough, prominent people within the A.I. world are thinking the exact same thing. On today’s A.I. Update, called “Rise of the Machines,” Something’s Happening Here will look at claims made by the so-called “godfather of A.I.” https://fortune.com/2023/10/10/rogue-artificial-intelligence-manipulate-people-british-godfather-ai-geoffrey-hinton/ This week, on our eleventh episode of Season Three, we look at the recent outbreak of War in Israel and the theological cacophony surrounding it.

10/19/23: Remnant in Israel "Israel at War" part 4 So how much of Israel does the Bible claim will be saved? Only those who believe? Some, by a different metric? All? Good grief do we get in trouble when we try to sit in the Judge’s chair and decide the salvation of other people, even entire groups! But a lot of this discussion and confusion comes from Paul’s wordy discourse on the subject in Romans chapter 11, so today on Something’s Happening Here we will study the “Remnant in Israel” as it is described in that chapter. https://free.messianicbible.com/feature/abraham-chosen-people/ This week, on our eleventh episode of Season Three, we look at the recent outbreak of War in Israel and the theological cacophony surrounding it.

10/18/23: Daniel’s 70th Week "Israel at War" part 3 Yes, we DID just discuss Daniel chapter 9 on the show recently, just a couple weeks ago in fact. Who knew at the time that it would become urgently relevant so soon thereafter? Today on Something’s Happening Here, we study out Daniel’s 70th Week: the subject of the futurist theology invented by Father Francisco Ribera during the Catholic Council of Trent in the 1500s; a great example of using chiastic structure as a study tool; and the only place in the entire canon of Scripture where people think they see “the father of lies” making a covenant. Has the future finally become the present? Is Left Behind right around the corner? All that and more on today’s show. https://www.gotquestions.org/seventy-weeks.html https://www.amazingfacts.org/media-library/study-guide/e/4995/t/right-on-time--prophetic-appointments-revealed This week, on our eleventh episode of Season Three, we look at the recent outbreak of War in Israel and the theological cacophony surrounding it.

10/17/23: Who Is Israel? "Israel at War" part 2 Yesterday we looked at some of the Biblical imagery that leads some believers to see the nation of Israel and its potential third temple as the fulfilments of various prophecies. So to investigate this further, we have to ask about Israel itself, Biblically speaking. Can it be true that a little detail from the story of the birth of Christ can hold the key to unlocking some of this imagery? On Something’s Happening Here, we believe that because God Almighty is the true author of all the Scriptures, we can therefore find big truths by comparing smaller, related truths when we study “line upon line, precept upon precept, here a little, there a little” as it says in Isaiah 28:10. Join us on today’s show, “Who Is Israel?”, where we’ll study out the answer in just that manner. https://www.ligonier.org/learn/devotionals/jesus-true-israel This week, on our eleventh episode of Season Three, we look at the recent outbreak of War in Israel and the theological cacophony surrounding it.

10/16/23: Why Are Evangelicals So Excited? "Israel at War" part 1 I’m not here to make you mad this week, friends, but I probably will; because this week on Something’s Happening Here our focus is on the Middle Eastern nation of Israel, its recent declaration of war against Hamas, and the many theological ideas swirling around it, many of which come from American Evangelical Christians. On today’s opening show of the week, called “Why Are Evangelicals So Excited?”, we investigate one such dominant theology so that for the rest of the week we can evaluate those ideas against Scripture. I’m Steve Hicks, Director of Podcast Ministries for Talking Donkey International. Welcome to an exciting week. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/politics/wp/2018/05/14/half-of-evangelicals-support-israel-because-they-believe-it-is-important-for-fulfilling-end-times-prophecy/ This week, on our eleventh episode of Season Three, we look at the recent outbreak of War in Israel and the theological cacophony surrounding it.

10/13/23 “Antebellum” part 5: Prophetic Postbellum On yesterday’s show we looked at several linguistic patterns present within the text of Daniel 11, and we did that for a purpose: not just to see one of those patterns at work in our world right now, but also to ground our study in time, so we know what to focus on in order to learn what God says is coming next. Go get those Prophecy Hats from yesterday and wear them again, because on today’s show, called “Prophetic Postbellum,” we will see how the events of the moment are laying the groundwork for the conclusion of Daniel’s great prophecy to come to pass. Thanks for spending your week with us on Something’s Happening Here. I’m Steve Hicks.

10/12/23 “Antebellum” part 4: Hidden Patterns in Daniel 11 To end our week, we will spend today and tomorrow studying Daniel chapter 11, as we have many times on Something’s Happening Here. On today’s show, called “Hidden Patterns in Daniel 11,” we will establish some of the linguistic patterns at work in the chapter, which help us decode its deepest mysteries, then we will see a historical pattern that matches what we see in the text, and which is at work in our world – in our very country – today.

10/11/23 “Antebellum” part 3: Bill Clinton Says They’re Doing It Wrong So far this week we’ve seen the parties calling each other names, and the Republicans form a circular firing squad. Today on Something’s Happening Here, we will look at another crack in the Democrat monolith, an indication that things aren’t as stable with the progressives as the media would like us to believe. So what does it mean when both political parties are divided against themselves, AND each other? This week’s episode “Antebellum” continues with Part 3 on today’s show, “Bill Clinton Says They’re Doing It Wrong.” Our tenth episode of Season Three looks at harbingers of conflict to come in light of apocalyptic prophecy. https://link.theepochtimes.com/mkt_app/us/bill-clinton-breaks-with-democrats-makes-concession-on-illegal-immigrant-surge-5502640?utm_campaign=app-cc&utm_source=ref_share&utm_medium=app&c=share_gift&pid=iOS_app_share https://www.theepochtimes.com/mkt_app/us/mayorkas-to-expedite-construction-of-border-wall-in-texas-amid-illegal-immigration-surge-5504330?utm_campaign=app-cc&utm_source=ref_share&utm_medium=app&c=share_gift&pid=iOS_app_share Season 3 Episode 10 Please become a Supporter on Locals for exclusive content and help us stay on the air! https://somethingshappeninghere.locals.com #antebellum #billclintonsaystheyredoingitwrong #somethingshappeninghere #PoliticalParties #PartyDivisions #RepublicanParty #DemocraticParty #PoliticalConflict #ProgressivePolitics #MediaNarrative #PoliticalAnalysis #PoliticalUnity #PartisanDivide #Antebellum #BillClinton #PodcastDiscussion #CurrentEvents #PoliticalCracks #USPolitics #PoliticalDisagreement #PoliticalDivision #PoliticalStrife #PodcastInsights

10/10/23 “Antebellum” part 2: Defeat From the Jaws of Victory After years of losing the virtue-signal battle with Democrats over their many historic firsts, like the first female vice-president, who is also the first black vice-president, the first black female Supreme Court Justice, the first black female lesbian press secretary, the first transgender admiral, the first nonbinary furry nuclear waste official, the first federal vaccine mandate that crushed businesses, families, and lives, the first presidential absence from a 9/11 memorial at one of the disaster sites, and the first son of a sitting president indicted on federal charges, Republicans wanted to win a virtue victory with their own historic first: so they threw their own leader out of the Speaker of the House position. This week’s episode, “Antebellum,” continues with today’s show, “Defeat From the Jaws of Victory.” Welcome to Something’s Happening Here.

10/9/23 “Antebellum” part 1: Shots Fired To some degree, politics has always been an ugly business; but it does seem like the poison and vitriol has increased quite a bit over the past few presidential cycles. And even in between the elections, increasingly it seems that half the country can't get along with the other half anymore, and in many ways it feels like we're racing toward a breaking point. This week on Something's Happening Here, we look at several indicators as to where we might be in God’s timeline to see if maybe we really are experiencing the start of something big. We’ll end the week with the apocalyptic vision in Daniel 11, so keep those Prophecy Hats close by. I’m Steve Hicks, Director of Podcast Ministries for Talking Donkey International; welcome to a new episode called “Antebellum,” starting with today’s show, “Shots Fired.” Our tenth episode of Season Three looks at harbingers of conflict to come in light of apocalyptic prophecy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dvcbrg5-pds Season 3 Episode 10 Please become a Supporter on Locals for exclusive content and help us stay on the air! https://somethingshappeninghere.locals.com #antebellum #shotsfired #somethingshappeninghere #Politics #PoliticalDiscourse #PresidentialElections #PartisanDivide #PoliticalPolarization #BreakingPoint #GodsTimeline #BiblicalProphecy #EndTimes #ApocalypticVision #Daniel11 #ProphecyHats #PodcastDiscussion #CurrentEvents #AntebellumAnalysis #ShotsFired #NationalCrisis #DividedNation #PoliticalAnalysis #PodcastInsights

“Can A.I. Fail Upward?” On this week’s A.I. Update, we look at the rapid advance of A.I. technology – ChatGPT, specifically – and note that so far seems to be avoiding the phenomenon of failing upward, like we’ve discussed all week. But can it escape this pitfall forever? Is it doomed to hit the same ceiling that humanity always does, since it has no thoughts or personality of its own but is just an expression of the people who programmed it? How far can it advance before it has to mimic humanity’s “failing upward” response? Thanks for concluding your week with us on Something’s Happening Here. I’m Steve Hicks, Director of Podcast Ministries for Talking Donkey International.

“The Church Can Fail Upward Too” It’s been fun to pick on our politicians and government this week, but as always on this show we’re aiming for a truth greater than our leaders’ incompetence. Understanding the inherent problem of looking for answers in the same place where you gained the problem is important because prophecy shows us that this is exactly what will happen before Christ returns. Today on Something’s Happening Here, we look at one more example of an institution failing upward, and we turn to the book of Revelation to see what happens when the church fails upward, too.
