Triggered by the election of Donald Trump to a 2nd term, we explore the reasons why 49% of the country is sad and angry. We consider what religious, secular and ethical commentators such as Nancy Demoss Woldemuth, Anthony Davis, Frank Schaeffer and others have to say, and quote the words of 19th century economic historian Henry George from his book, on "How Modern Civilization May Decline". We remind ourselves what Daniel told Nebuchadnezzar: "the Most High rules in the kingdom of men." And we paint a picture in broad brush strokes of how the next four years will lead to major upheavals by 2028, leading on to a full collapse of American Democracy, Christian Orthodoxy, and Russian Oligarchy by 2043, the year when death itself can be expected to end and the long awaited peace and prosperity that the world has been awaiting since Eden will begin to unfold. It is a calm and encouraging, but sober look at the many things that will be happening to unravel our current existence, unveil the good thiings to come, and teach all of us lessons along the way.

It is Near focuses on the alarming and the hopeful; the frightful and the forgotten; the blinding glare of giant problems, and the dark secrets that lurk even more menacingly in the shadows of global trends. "Amazing Grace" may have taught our hearts to fear, but for most Christians and non-Christians alike, divine grace as commonly conceptualized does not those fears relieve. It is Near will be informative, accessible, comforting, and challenging to every thinking person. It will call Christians to account and provide a breath of fresh air for secularists who, for once, would like to hear a conciliatory and intellectually honest message from a thoughtful Christian voice. Owen Kindig of Sitka, Alaska is your host, and is responsible for the content.
