3/21/24 "Rampage of the Southern King?" part 4 - Repeat Episode from November 2023 As we conclude our study of Daniel 11 today (until next time, anyway), we draw on Tuesday’s study about the way the kings do battle to identify how those kings are manifesting in our world right now. We seek to gain a perspective that will help us see the movements of the divine world in the current events around us; and in the process, learn what it all means spiritually as time draws nearer to Christ’s return. Keep those Prophecy Hats on for one more day, friends, for today’s show called “The Hegelian Dialectic of Politics Revealed in Prophecy.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reign_of_Terror#Influences For our fifteenth episode of Season Three, we again study Daniel chapter 11, with respect to the results of Election Day 2023.

3/20/24 "Rampage of the Southern King?" part 3 - Repeat Episode from November 2023 Often when studying Daniel 11, most of the emphasis is given to identifying the characters. “Who is the King of the North?” “Who is the King of the South?” But we’d do well to remember that we don’t serve either king, and we should be looking for Jesus Christ more than anything else. That’s just what we will do on today’s show, called “This is the Only Safe Option When All Politics are Evil.” By identifying Jesus and His role in the rest of the prophecy, we gain a right perspective on all the other details we encounter; and when we apply that perspective to our real lives, we see how to navigate the recent election’s results and everything else that comes before Jesus returns. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/fn4ka7t7x3w9loozlsudz/Prince-Etymology.docx?rlkey=ral2s34oa2nn10116d3riyzxd&dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ufix061t4ykb8va1xav8y/Chiastic-Structure-of-prince-Dan-8-12.pdf?rlkey=ehbmyu58exe6hn3d0rxtee8cz&dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/25wkmb82uufqw3he0mr1q/Chiasm-around-v22.pdf?rlkey=epix81bznwj9469mvyg4tg4pz&dl=0 For our fifteenth episode of Season Three, we again study Daniel chapter 11, with respect to the results of Election Day 2023.

3/19/24 "Rampage of the Southern King?" part 2 - Repeat Episode from November 2023 Today on Something’s Happening Here, we keep our Prophecy Hats on as we dive right into Daniel 11. On today’s show, called “The Nature of Warfare Always Escalates As Time Goes On,” we will look at the warfare between the characters called the King of the North and the King of the South to identify patterns about how they interact throughout time. And we’ll define the term “The Time of the End” and look at history to help us understand why it is described the way it is in Daniel 12. And all of this is to gain God’s perspective on the social movements at play in our world today, and specifically as revealed in the recent election results. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Revolution#The_Revolution_and_the_Church https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ee6q9nxep38o0y2khoekw/TIme-of-the-End.pdf?rlkey=laibng6lbn66ctzqb9l4ezixv&dl=0 For our fifteenth episode of Season Three, we again study Daniel chapter 11, with respect to the results of Election Day 2023.

3/18/24 "Rampage of the Southern King?" part 1 – Repeat Episode from November 2023 Election Day 2023! Did you get out and vote? Well, whether you did or not, many sure did, and the results were surprising in a number of ways. You may have heard the results analyzed by many talking heads by the time this show airs, so we won’t be just another one doing that. Instead, this week Something’s Happening Here will look at key takeaways from the election to launch into a deep-dive of Daniel chapter 11, which tells us what to expect going forward from here. Put on your prophecy hats all week long, friends, and keep those Bibles nearby. I’m Steve Hicks, Director of Podcast Ministries for Talking Donkey International.

3/15/24 "Demonic Lawfare" part 3 S4E8p3 What comes to your mind when you think of the number 666? We find that number in Revelation chapter 13 and it's tied to the infamous “mark of the beast,” which Biblically speaking is the worst thing that can ever happen to you. So you're probably not thinking good things about that number, but are you thinking lawfare about that number? Because it turns out when you understand prophecy properly, that lawfare and the mark of the beast are not separate issues at all. Today on Something's Happening Here we are concluding our discussion on lawfare that we've been having all week long, and we are doing so prophetically. So make sure to put on your Prophecy Hats and join me for an in-depth look at Revelation chapter 13. May God bless you. https://www.thenortheastgeorgian.com/opinion-editorial/sunday-worship-mark-beast For our eighth episode of Season Four, again we have an off-format week, with only three shows: Monday, Wednesday, Friday. And we’ll be looking at the deeper dimensions of what is being called “lawfare” in the United States today.

3/13/24 "Demonic Lawfare" part 2 S4E8p2 Generally, friends, when you think about going to church you don't think that you're going to die before you come home again. And yet, historically speaking, the church has not always been a place of love and joy and tolerance. If you go back in time far enough – I'm talking 17th century and before – the church could very well end your life, depending on how you lived that life and whether or not you came into conflict with the church around you. Welcome to our second installment of the week-long discussion of “lawfare.” We're going to talk about lawfare as it relates to the law of God. What is the purpose for which God gave us his law? Is it to use as a weapon against one another? What does the Bible say? What does the world say? All that and more, today on Something's Happening Here. May God bless you. Welcome to the show. https://marcalanschelske.com/bible-bash-clobber/ For our eighth episode of Season Four, again we have an off-format week, with only three shows: Monday, Wednesday, Friday.

3/11/24 "Demonic Lawfare" part 1 S4E8p1 Today on Something's Happening Here we are beginning our week-long discussion about the concept of “lawfare.” But it's not going to be what you think it's going to be, because Something's Happening Here is in the middle of a big transition, as I mentioned in previous weeks. We have a lot of format changes coming up and we're a little bit precarious about how we are going to be proceeding in the future. So this week we have a little bit of both the old format and the new format, and I want you to be aware of what's coming. We're starting out with current events: what's going on with the presidential election?; how have the courts been weaponized for political purposes? But then we are going to move on beyond that for our second show on Wednesday and our third show on Friday, so we’ll eventually be talking about the role of lawfare in the soon return of Jesus Christ. Thank you for tuning into the show. May God bless you, and welcome. https://www.leadertimes.com/opinion/trump-lawfare-update/article_7871ec36-dc0d-11ee-8836-07de0b4ec2c4.html For our eighth episode of Season Four, again we have an off-format week, with only three shows: Monday, Wednesday, Friday.

3/8/24 Progressive Christianity "Not Your Parents’ Planet Earth" part 5 What makes a person a Christian? How central is Jesus to that term? How important is the gospel? Today on Something’s Happening Here, rather than the usual A.I. Update, instead we’re exploring the concept of Progressive Christianity, and seeing how the meaning of being a Christian has morphed and changed just since the days of my youth. What has been the impact across the faith at large? Well, I suppose that would depend on your perspective; but whether you like it or hate it, today we’ll see how Progressive Christianity is just another manifestation of a phenomenon present within the church since the very beginning.

3/6/24 Erasing Women in the 21st Century "Not Your Parents’ Planet Earth" part 3 Have you noticed that women are everywhere these days? CEOs, flight captains and crews, investment bankers, engineers, Supreme Court justices, UFC for some reason. Yet at the same time, all the best women seem to be men these days! Caitlyn Jenner is Time’s woman of the year, Lia Thompson nominated for the NCAA’s. How did this happen? Such would have been totally unthinkable when Title IX was written fifty years ago, but this is “Not Your Parents’ Planet Earth” anymore. Join us today on Something’s Happening Here as we discuss “Erasing Women in the 21st Century.” And don’t forget to join our community at somethingshappeninghere.locals.com where on Thursday this week we’ll be discussing the theology of why life on earth has changed so much so fast. https://apnews.com/article/title-ix-transgender-athletes-rights-9adfe49a8e07f66f07b5e2302bb94730 https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSL1N36E1ZD/ https://www.sportskeeda.com/mma/fallon-fox-mma-how-many-skulls-under-fire-transgender-mma-fighter-accused-breaking My oh my, how things have changed!

3/4/24 Fighting Racism With Racism "Not Your Parents’ Planet Earth" part 1 I grew up in one of the most racially diverse places in America. I was taught at an early age and believe to this day that treating people differently because of their skin is wrong and ignorant. Imagine my surprise, then, when I was called a racist for repeating the dream of Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr., that people should be judged based on the content of their character rather than the color of their skin! But the world has changed since Dr. King shared his dream with us, hasn’t it? Today on Something’s Happening Here, we look at this modern phenomenon of “Fighting Racism With Racism” as we begin our week-long acknowledgment that this is “Not Your Parents’ Planet Earth” anymore.

3/1/24 He is Master Over Binary Code "Behold the Power of God" part 5 Today on Something’s Happening Here, we’re tying together our opening theme – God’s power over computers as well as people – with our typical Friday format, the AI Update. We’ll look at a recent story which, to the people involved, I’m sure seemed a LOT like our experience with Facebook, which we detailed on Monday. But in this instance, the computer was an AI chatbot, rather than a mystery team of techs at Meta, so God’s challenge was amplified by the absence of human consciousness to influence. Yet God prevailed, of course! Thanks for joining us all week as we’ve Beheld the Power of God in Scripture, history, and now AI.

2/29/24 Babylon Knows That He Means What He Says "Behold the Power of God" part 4 Happy leap day, friends! And happy birthday to those of you who only get one birthday every four years. This is your day, live it up! But don’t forget to join the rest of us on Something’s Happening Here, because today we will see how God has displayed His power and kept His ancient promises in our modern world today, in the lifetimes of (probably) everyone watching this now. Are you ready to see recent historical events in a new light today? Come with me as we “Behold the Power of God” one more time, as we see that “Babylon Knows That He Means What He Says.” I pray the rest of us will know it too, by the time we’re done.

2/28/24 He Builds Where He Sees Fit "Behold the Power of God" part 3 I’ve mentioned in the past that my family lineage in America stretches back four hundred years, all the way to the Mayflower. I love this land of my ancestors for four centuries. And many of us who love the United States believe that it is and always has been blessed by God, or some version of that idea. Why would we feel that way? Is it just American hubris? Or could there perhaps be a solid prophetic reason as well? Join us for our midweek show on Something’s Happening Here, where we will see quite plainly that “He Builds Where He Sees Fit” as we continue to Behold the Power of God.

2/27/24 He Defeats the Impenetrable "Behold the Power of God" part 2 In 2009, President Obama declared that certain large financial institutions were “too big to fail,” by which he meant too important to be allowed to fail. He said this not because they really couldn’t fail, but acknowledging that they actually might, absent of outside intervention. Well, in the ancient world Babylon itself was considered “too big to fail,” but it was believed that Babylon simply could not fail. And from a human engineering standpoint, it couldn’t! It was a city designed to be impenetrable against all foes. But nothing is impossible with God, as Babylon came to discover. The fall of Babylon altered history more than Babylon itself did, and today on Something’s Happening Here we will explore the prophecies that changed the world. Join us for “He Defeats the Impenetrable,” as we Behold the Power of God in the ancient world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babylon God is so great that even established believers get blindsided by Him sometimes.

2/26/24 God’s Humble Servant, Facebook "Behold the Power of God" part 1 Today is the day that the Lord has made, friends! And I will rejoice and be glad in it! We at Something’s Happening Here have been under the burden of some cyber-malfeasance for many months now, but God is good all the time, and nothing is too difficult for Him, according to Jeremiah 32:27.What’s the problem, and what’s the news? Join us in the main show to find out! And to honor God’s power and faithfulness toward us, all week we will be looking at ways the Lord has demonstrated His power in Scripture and history; including in our very lifetimes, which we’ll see on Thursday’s show.

2/23/24 Downfall of the A.I. King "God Removes King and Raises Up Kings" part 5 No, not the “King of A.I.,” but rather, the “A.I. King.” On our final show of the week, Something’s Happening Here will look at some parallels between the downfall of pompous human leaders and the state of things in the world of artificial intelligence, and ask if the patterns we’ve discussed all week might manifest in the digital world also? Is nature subject to God’s promise to humble the exalted and exalt the humbled? Would A.I. be? We live in interesting times, friends – all the more reason to rejoice that Jesus is coming soon! Welcome to this week’s A.I. Update, and may God bless you. https://www.xponance.com/generative-ai-hope-hubris-or-harrowing/ Recently President Biden held a press conference that many have labeled as a disaster for him.

2/22/24 Peace Through Strength (Allegedly) "God Removes King and Raises Up Kings" part 4 We can’t claim to take a prophetic view of a current event and not spend some time in Daniel chapter 11! Regular viewers of this show know that I believe Daniel 11 is prophecy for right now, and accordingly we will conclude our discussions about President Biden’s recent disastrous press conference by studying it out. What do the repetitive battles between the King of the North and the King of the South have anything to do with an old man confusing Mexico with Egypt or forgetting the details of his son’s death? How does this ancient writing prepare us for what it coming next?

2/21/24 Narcissism and Worm Food "God Removes King and Raises Up Kings" part 3 God promises to humble the exalted, and exalt the humbled, and has provided many instances of doing such throughout time. Therefore it’s always shocking to see professed believers in political leadership who exalt themselves anyway, and who inevitably face their dramatic downfall in short order. Today on Something’s Happening Here, we take a look at Herod the Great – and two generations of his family that followed him – to gain insight as to how God responds when leaders use His name in support of wicked things. Is that happening right now? You be the judge, friends, as we discuss “Narcissism and Worm Food” on our midweek show.

2/20/24 The Insanity of Hubris "God Removes King and Raises Up Kings" part 2 Did you know that I am an eyewitness of the September 11, 2001 terror attacks in New York City? It’s true. I was one of those hundreds of thousands of people you saw on tv fleeing downtown on foot. On that morning, my roommate at the time said something to the effect of the attacks being against “American hubris.” I didn’t understand what he meant at the time, and I didn’t fully agree with the sentiment when I came to understand it, but he did have at least one thing right: the downfall of hubris is inevitable, because hubris itself leads to insanity, and insanity cannot survive for long. Today on Something’s Happening Here, we look to ancient Babylon to establish a pattern that may just be unfolding in front of our eyes in 2024, in the form of an old man and an angry press conference. I’m Steve Hicks, Director of Podcast Ministries for Talking Donkey International.

2/19/24 Biden’s Worst Presser "God Removes King and Raises Up Kings" part 1 This week on Something’s Happening Here, we’re back to our core mission: exploring the spiritual side of current events. And the current event of the moment ready to be explored spiritually is President Biden’s press conference on February 8, 2024, which has been labeled as a ”disaster” by reporters and pundits across the political spectrum. But as we’ll see throughout the week, there is more going on here than what appears on the surface; because while the details are different each time, the Biden presidency’s inevitable downfall is just the latest manifestation of a story as old as time. The prophet Daniel told us that “God Removes Kings and Raises Up Kings,” and whenever a leader forgets that, trouble ensues. Thanks for starting your week with us as we begin this week’s episode with today’s show, “Biden’s Worst Presser.” https://www.tennessean.com/story/opinion/columnists/2024/02/09/biden-press-conference-special-counsel-hur-report-unfit-for-office/72536882007/ https://www.foxnews.com/media/biden-blistered-mainstream-media-after-disaster-press-conference-elderly-irritable-man Recently President Biden held a press conference that many have labeled as a disaster for him.

2/16/24 Digital Love in the Digital Age "The Holiday About Love" part 5 Can computers feel eros? Or philia? Or agape? Can computers feel anything at all? (I’ll tell you ChatGPT’s answer to that on today’s show.) Well, it’s increasingly clear that humans can and do feel at least some of these types of love toward Artificial Intelligence, regardless of how the AI feels in return. Is the increasing ubiquity of virtual girlfriends more than just a commentary on how men will create porn out of every available thing? What are the spiritual implications of this phenomenon, if any? After our off-format week discussing the different aspects of love in recognition of Valentine’s Day, our A.I. Update this week looks at “Digital Love in the Digital Age.” Thanks to all of you who joined our community at somethingshappeninghere.locals.com; and if you haven’t yet, it’s not too late!

2/14/24 Is Erotic Love in the Bible? "The Holiday About Love" part 3 What a show title, right? “Is Erotic Love in the Bible?” For our Valentine’s Day show, we explore the titillating topic of Eros, the physical love between lovers. Spoiler alert: Yes, this type of love is present in the Bible, though the Greek word on which it is based, eros, is not. What does the absence of the word eros in Scripture tell us about the use and abuse of erotic love in the sight of God? Today’s show will be a fun one, thanks for joining us. Also – did you see yesterday’s show? It wasn’t in the usual places. It was an off-format show available only to the members of our community at somethingshappeninghere.locals.com.

2/12/24 Love Like Unto a Brother "The Holiday About Love" part 1 Today on Something’s Happening Here, we’re talking about love! Since Valentine’s Day is this week, our focus all week long is about love, starting with Philia, brotherly love. English is a beautiful language, but in many ways also a lazy one, and in English we squish all the different facets of love into a single word: love. But the concept of love is actually multi-faceted, and better understanding its different aspects can help us also better understand God. Watch for a different format this week, friends! Details about the changes to expect, how to get the most out of it, and the reasons for it all are in today’s full show. I’m Steve Hicks, Director of Podcast Ministries for Talking Donkey International. Welcome to the show. https://www.lwf.org/keys-to-healthy-relationships/understanding-the-different-types-of-love-in-the-bible This week we’re trying a new scheduling format for our Biblical look at love in this Valentine’s Day season: 3 shows instead of 5 (M,W,F) with content Tuesday and Thursday exclusively at somethingshappeninghere.locals.com.

2/9/24 Super Dating With A.I. "Superman or Bizarro-man?" part 5 Recently I came across a report that ChatGPT has a store (didn’t know that) and that it is overrun with AI Girlfriends, despite OpenAI’s company policy against such things. I wrote to my producer and told him this is why, despite my general concern, I’m not overly worried about AI conquering the world – because the best and brightest among us use this supertechnology to … make porn! Of course. On this week’s A.I. Update on Something’s Happening Here, we see that romance and A.I. might not be such good bedfellows after all. But more importantly than that, we’ll see the prophetic reason why this all betrays a problem of the human heart that believers need to overcome before the return of Jesus Christ. https://www.wired.com/story/volar-dating-app-chatbot-screen-matches/ For our third episode of Season Four we are looking at the “supermen” of history and examining the desire of the human heart to be greater than we are.

2/8/24 When This Mortal Puts On Immortality "Superman or Bizarro-man?" part 4 The Blessed Hope that remains for the redeemed in Christ is a hope that cannot be taken from us – the promise of the return of Jesus Christ! The Lord promised us, “If I go to prepare a place for you, I will come again to receive you unto myself, that where I am, there you may be also.” So everyone who “loves His appearing,” to use another Bible phrase, can weather any storm of life knowing that eternity with Christ is coming, along with all the promises and benefits thereof. Today on Something’s Happening Here, we look at the day “When This Mortal Shall Put On Immortality” to see when our innate desire to be greater than our biology will be fulfilled forever for those who believe. https://catenabible.com/1cor/15/53 For our third episode of Season Four we are looking at the “supermen” of history and examining the desire of the human heart to be greater than we are.
