Verse & Vision | May 26, 2026

Jesus had just left the temple for the last time. His disciples asked him two questions about the end. His first word in response was not a timeline, or a sign. It was a warning. Before anything else – before wars, famines, or earthquakes – He said: Take heed that no man deceive you. That was not an accident. Matthew 24 is one of the most significant and most mishandled passages in all of scripture. Today we give it the full weight it deserves.

Why I Believe We Are Living in the End Times — and Why I’m Unbothered by Those Who Think I’ve Lost My Marbles

I’m aware of how this title lands. I’ve seen the eye-rolls, and honestly, I get it — the end times space has more than its share of sensationalism, date-setting, and people who seem to be enjoying the chaos a little too much. I’m not that. What I am is someone who has spent a lot of time looking carefully at Scripture, at history, and at current events — and who finds the convergence of all three genuinely difficult to dismiss. This is not a panic post. It’s a reference post. Take what’s useful, push back on what you disagree with, and at minimum, consider the possibility that the patterns are worth a serious look.
