“Money Money Money Money … MONEY!” Remember Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous? In the 80s, we liked to peek into the lives of those who were far wealthier than we, for some reason. It was the culture of the time, Greed Is Good, and we institutionalized this envy into a popular television series. Twenty years later, the same spirit manifested as the Real Housewives, Paris Hilton’s Simple Life, The Kardashians, and the like. Even now, this spirit is so much a part of our culture that the word Kardashian didn’t even fail spellcheck when I wrote this show! But where has this lust taken us? And what does it tell us about God? Today on Something’s Happening Here: Put on your math hats, friends, and get ready for some numbers and finance, because that’s just about Satan’s favorite weapon to use against us in these last days.

“Not Just Dazed and Confused” When I was growing up, I recall watching a video in high school health class about the dangers of using heroin. A teenager, very straight-laced, was peer-pressured into trying heroin just one time, and it killed him. Therefore, the lesson was, avoid it at all costs, because even one use can end it all. Fast forward to today, and we are losing over 60,000 Americans to just one class of drug – opioids. This trend has been increasing for ten years now, and especially since the pandemic! Drug use and abuse has been with us for a long time, but this crisis is new, and worsening! What’s happening that so many choose to die instead of live in our modern day? Today on Something’s Happening Here, we look at the problem and the solution that the devil doesn’t want you to know. Thanks for joining us in the middle of your week!

“You Are Not Your Own” The Bible literally says “For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it,” and yet in our world today we see self-hatred all over the place! Today on Something’s Happening Here, we look at the phenomenon of body mutilation, which seems to be gripping people worldwide, and especially in the West, and especially among our youth, and especially among the girls. What has happened in the world to so radically invert the apostle Paul’s statement, where now we find virtue in neither nourishing OR cherishing our bodies, but cutting them into costumes instead? When did child mutilation become a controversial topic? I hope it all makes you long for the Kingdom of God, friends, because it does for me. Welcome to the show.

“Ground Zero” We’re back for Season Three and we’re battling the devil head-on! Today on Something’s Happening Here, we’re NOT BROADCASTING ON OUR FLAGSHIP FACEBOOK PAGE! Can you believe it? Friends, we have been victimized and that Page is currently under the control of someone else. I’ll share a little more on the main show, but as always on this show we’re more interested in the spiritual side of whatever’s happening, so we will discuss this problem as one of a spiritual battle. The eternal conflict between good and evil is being waged right now with this show right in the middle of the battlefield! So grab your Bible, buckle up, and let’s get to it, friends, on every OTHER media outlet we can.

“The Ministry of Misinformation” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 5/5/23 People can’t agree about anything anymore because we often make decisions based on wildly disparate sets of facts and ideas. How in the world can we navigate a world where we cannot even agree on basic facts, or even what constitutes a fact? In a world where nothing means nothing anymore because everything means whatever we want it to, you and I need some rock solid truth to stand on: and we know that rock is Jesus Christ.

“Worst Economy in a Generation” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 5/4/23 What if bad economics is more than just a matter of politics? Could it be a matter of prophecy as well? Today on Something’s Happening Here we take a sober look at both the state of the economy in 2023 as well as how economics will shape and influence prophetic events still to come. Knowing prophecy doesn’t make the cost of gas any cheaper, but it does remind us that God is in charge, always. Remember, we’re preparing a new show for next week, right now! So please keep praying, and thank you for your prayers all summer long.

“Is the World Becoming Skynet?” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 5/3/23 If you grew up in the 80s and 90s, you know that The Terminator once seemed like a distant dystopian sci-fi nightmare; but in the space of one generation the advance of Artificial Intelligence has made that kind of technology frighteningly real. Hopefully we’re getting ready to record Season Three’s premier episode right about now, so today on Something’s Happening Here we revisit the first time we discussed the problem of A.I. during Season Two. As you may know, this became a recurring topic throughout the next several episodes to follow. Thanks for joining us in the middle of your week! Welcome to the show.

“The Pagan Revolutions” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 5/2/23 You want to know who’s to blame for whatever’s making you mad? Turn on the news – any news – for five minutes and you’re sure to hear all about one person or group or another and why all the evil comes from them. But the Bible, of course, doesn’t say that. God’s law and prophecy alike both reveal to us the real root problem – the spiritual sickness of our hearts – that underlies every way that society seems to be spiraling out of control today. But are we ready to confront that problem? Let’s find out! Welcome to Something’s Happening Here. I’m Steve Hicks.

“Why is the World so Unstable Right Now?” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 5/1/23 Today on Something’s Happening Here: The tumult of the past several years appears alive and well when we look around us. Everywhere, everything seems fragile and unstable. I sure trust all the foundations and institutions of our society a whole lot less now than I used to! Don’t you? Why could this be? The world has some nonsense explanations but the Bible’s answers make sense! We’re finalizing our new studio space this week so please pray we can begin Season Three in just seven days!

“The Only Question That Matters” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 3/17/23 All the knowledge in the world about Christ’s return won’t make a bit of difference if you’re not ready to meet Him when He comes, so in this re-broadcast of Season One’s finale show, we ask the only question that really matters, in a few different ways: have you surrendered to Jesus Christ? Have you accepted the death of your Savior as substitute for your own? Are you in a saving relationship with the Lord? That one decision is the only one that will overcome the grave, so nothing else in life is as important as that one choice. What’s your choice today, friends? Eternity with your loving Savior? Or eternal death without Him? I know the choice He wants you to make, for sure. Let’s make it together. "The Main Event" Part 5: 7/28/23 We’re in the final stretch of our Great Relocation!

“The Man In Charge” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 3/16/23 Today on Something’s Happening Here, we ask a really interesting question: what can politics teach us about God? At first it seems like nothing, right? Politics seems in many ways to be the opposite of Biblical religion. Yet prophecy has always worked itself out in the geopolitical realm, and that’s no different today. Put on your prophecy hats, because we wander into Daniel 11 today to see how politics and prophecy interact, and what we can learn for today.

“Individual Mandate” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 3/15/23 With a show title like “Individual Mandate,” you might think we’re talking healthcare or government today, but we’re not. The God of the Bible has a much more important mandate for every potential resident of His Kingdom to come, and that’s what we’re talking about today: salvation. It’s such an important topic that I’ve wished for a chance to expand on the subject ever since this show first aired, so now that the new studio is just about done perhaps it’s time to take a deeper dive with the Supporters on Locals. Are you on Locals yet, friends? Thanks for joining us in the middle of your week. Welcome to the show.

“The Not-So-Secret Secret” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 3/14/23 Today on Something’s Happening Here I make the claim that most believers alive today believe something other than what the Bible teaches about the return of Jesus Christ. I know that’s a bold claim to make, so you better watch today’s show to make me back it up! Did you know you can click to the full show right from this reel? Try it now, and pray for us! We’re aiming to have new material to broadcast in just a couple weeks! It’s a lofty goal but by God’s grace we believe it can happen. Ready for a challenging but uplifting show today, friends?

And I’m shooting these intros from our new studio space! It’s not completed yet but we’re working hard to get it up and running for Season Three to begin soon. Did you know these reels are just intros for the full 15-minute show? Now you can click directly to each show from that day’s reel!

“Prosper In All Things” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 2/10/23 If all goes well, this will be the last intro spot I record before the new studio is set up. Pray for us as we prepare for Season Three! For today, we conclude the week’s discussion on the spiritual side of good health by looking at the consequences of what happens when we have the wrong ideas about the subject. We affirm again that the body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, and a functional temple is crucial to know Christ Jesus in the most personal and powerful ways. Thanks for spending the week with us, and blessings to your good health!

“Does God Care What We Eat?” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 2/9/23 Okay, I’ll admit, I was skeptical every time I heard something like what we’re going to discuss on today’s show. Every single time. It never made any sense to me until I had to confront the reality of it in light of a bad medical diagnosis. Friends, I hope you believe me when I tell you that the topic of today’s show radically changed my life for the better; so much so that I am legit thankful that the Lord allowed me to suffer the chronic condition that I do, which prompted me to make this change in my life. Today’s show may taste bad on the way down, but by God’s grace it may just settle and strengthen your stomach in the end. Welcome, and may God bless you.

“What If…?” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 2/8/23 I was one of those people who reacted badly to the shutdowns and restrictions forced upon us during the recent global health crisis. I closed my churches reluctantly and worked to maintain worship services as best as possible in those conditions. But once I learned what we’re going to talk about today, any and all patience I had for the government’s nonsense was gone. Even today, this topic makes me angry; not because of its truth, but because of how badly the authorities worked to make sure we didn’t know it was true. I’m Steve Hicks, Director of Podcast Ministries for Talking Donkey International, and I want us all to live the lives more abundant that Jesus promised us; even if it goes against the government’s narrative in doing so.

“Epi(c)genetics” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 2/7/23 I’ve learned many things in my life, but few have had such a powerful, immediate, and life-changing impact than the day I learned about epigenetics. And since we’re talking about health all week long, I want to tell you all about it too! Growing up, I was taught that we’re all kind of victims of our genetic codes, and I know many people who take a fatalistic approach to their health as a result. But what if that’s not true? What if each one of us has the power, and by the grace of God also the motivation, to take control of our health at a genetic level? Would you take the chance to be healthy?

“A Matter of Health” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 2/6/23 This week on Something’s Happening Here, we are creating our new studio space and getting ready for Season Three! So for now, we’re talking about health all week long. The global health crisis of the past few years has shown us how important our health truly is, and how fragile and fleeting it can be for many of us. But the Bible reveals that God cares deeply for our physical health, and wants to advise us how to live in such a way as to maximize not just our health, but our whole life experience. Want to live and feel better, friends? You’ve come to the right place!

“The Way, the Truth, the Life” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 2/3/23 What will you do to prepare for the days of the Mark of the Beast? Buy property in the country? Stock up on food supplies, resources, or maybe even weapons? Disconnect from society? What do you think the Bible instructs us to do? Many of us want to do the things I just mentioned so much that we ignore the only thing the Bible prescribes: to know and follow the Lord Jesus Christ. The answer to the Mark of the Beast is so simple that many will miss it, but not us, right? At Something’s Happening Here our mission stands unchanged: to know Christ Jesus and follow Him all the way to God’s Kingdom. Will you be there too, friends?

“The Mark of Authority” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 2/2/23 There comes a moment in the spiritual journey of every student of prophecy when he or she must confront a hard Bible truth about something they previously held dear. For many, that comes with a study of Revelation 13 and the number “666.” Today on Something’s Happening Here, we reveal some powerful ways this number can be understood, and they may just bump up against something you’ve held dear in your life. For me, I found this truth to be liberating, empowering, and faith building; will you have the same reaction? Let’s get going, friends. Welcome to today’s show.

“Your Brother’s Keeper” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 2/1/23 Did you know that Cain’s mark in Genesis chapter 4 is the same as the mark of the beast at the end of time? This is yet another surprising example of how God laid out all the basic truths for His people at the very beginning of time! Today on Something’s Happening Here we study Genesis 4 to learn from Cain’s mistake so we can avoid deception when prophecy becomes reality in our near future.

“The Sabbath Connection” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 1/31/23 Are you surprised to hear that an important aspect of avoiding the Mark of the Beast is the seventh-day Sabbath of Scripture? It may seem odd to think that the pinnacle of evil manifest as global governmental control over individual finances has anything to do with the fourth commandment of God, but it does! Today on Something’s Happening Here, we learn about the Sabbath from the Bible, and we recognize that governments throughout time have used the people’s religious worship, more than any other social issue, as a method of control.

“One Mark to Rule Them All” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 1/30/23 Over time, and especially during and after the recent global health crisis, just about everything on earth has been labeled the “mark of the beast.” The vaccine mandates, Bitcoin, and various American presidents all share the distinction of bearing this accusation. But what it is really? Can we do no better than wild speculation and fearmongering? This week, as we’re settling in to our new lives in our new location, we are re-broadcasting our episode from Season One all about the mark of the beast. Along the way we will see a few surprises and maybe some challenges, but it’s all worth it if we know what we need to avoid this devilish mark when the time comes.

“Back to the Future” ORIGINALLY BROADCAST 1/9/2023 We spent two days learning Middle Ages history? Why, Steve? How is any of that relevant to right now? Excellent question, friend. Because the devil never changes, and can’t come up with anything original, he is certain to try to mimic and counterfeit every beautiful thing about Christ Jesus. Today as we conclude this week’s re-broadcast of “God’s Rottweiler” from Season One, and as I and my family roll into our new location in real time, we turn to Revelation 13 to see how the past informs the future, and how Christ stands ready to guard us against the great evil the Bible says is still yet to come.
