U.S. & Israel strike Iran: Dr. Jim Denison on faith, war & what comes next | Ep. 59
About this episode
Dr. Jim Denison discusses the recent U.S. and Israel strikes on Iran and the implications for faith and global affairs.
In this week's Brief: The U.S. and Israel launched simultaneous strikes on Iran in what's being called Operation Epic Fury, and the world changed overnight. We’re joined by Dr. Jim Denison, founder of Denison Ministries and author of The Daily Article to break down the latest updates on the conflict. Dr. Denison is one of the foremost Christian voices on faith and global affairs, especially when it comes to Israel, Iran, and radical Islam. He helps us unpack the history of Iran's Islamic Revolution, the Sunni-Shia divide, the apocalyptic theology fueling the regime, and the big questions Christians are wrestling with: Israel's role in prophecy and modern day geopolitics, the legality of the strikes, and how far a president can go without Congress. Plus, Dr. Denison shares how believers should be praying for our leaders, our soldiers, the innocents caught in the crossfire, and for the spiritual awakening in the Muslim world that he says has been quietly growing for decades. We believe you will find this conversation educational, engaging and uplifting in the midst of a very tense global moment.
