The prevailing narrative in the West is that Shiite-Iran and Sunni-ISIS are mortal enemies. Based on this premise, many believe that America and the West ought to partner with Iran to confront the Islamic State, or at least give Tehran license to do what is necessary in the Middle East to destroy the terrorist group. But what if Iran and ISIS are not the enemies many believe? On today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show, columnist Brad Macdonald explores the horrifying reality of the situation: that Iran was largely responsible for the rise of ISIS, that Iran benefits from the Islamic State’s activities, and that, prophetically, Iran and ISIS are on the same team.

The United States Marine Corps is at its breaking point, according to a recent report that aired on Fox News, and it’s putting the nation at risk. The majority of its strike fighter aircraft isn’t airworthy, and pilots aren’t being given enough flying time. The U.S. has dramatically cut military spending over the last five years. If America can’t afford to maintain its current military, how can troops be expected to maintain high morale, let alone true combat effectiveness? What does Bible prophecy say about the decline of America’s military? Find out on today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show.

Pax Americana was meant to ensure global stability by discouraging other nations from building up armaments. The absence of arms races meant there was relative stability and a lesser chance of war breaking out. Today, however, America’s leadership is taking the opposite approach, encouraging allies to fend for themselves without American aid. This shift will prove to be catastrophic for the United States because it is based on the assumption that allies will always be allies. History proves this is a fatal mistake. To learn the outcome of this dangerous trend, listen to today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show.

What has inflicted more harm on Western culture—radical Islam or moral decay? You still hear some powerful voices speaking out against radical Islam, but when it comes to the fight against immorality, Western nations have gone silent. Herbert W. Armstrong wrote that the downward plunge of morality is “a greater threat to humanity than the hydrogen bomb.” This new immorality has come to define Western culture more than anything else—and it’s destroying our civilization. How much longer will nations like the United States and Britain be able to survive this deadly assault on morality? Listen to today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show to find out where this is leading.

A task force organized by Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel published its report this week about how to improve relations between police and residents. The report blamed racism as the key cause of the city’s problems. Chicago police have “no regard for the sanctity of life when it comes to people of color,” it said. Is racism really the core problem here? Or is this report another attempt to undermine police authority?


Russian aircraft taunted a United States Navy vessel this week, conducting attack-like maneuverers and flying within 90 feet of the ship. The U.S. strongly condemned the provocative move by carefully noting that it was “entirely inconsistent” with professional norms. However, that was all the U.S. did in response. Just what will it take to actually upset America?


A television program recently aired in the United Kingdom highlighting the dangerous attitudes many Muslims harbor against the UK. The show reveals how multiculturalism has failed in Britain and has actually led to the creation of micro-nations run by Islamic law within the country. Where is this dangerous trend leading, and why are so few willing to speak up about it?


Listen to Stephen Flurry discuss all of these issues, and more, on today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show.

Iran was in clear violation of the recently implemented nuclear deal when it decided to test-fire ballistic missiles capable of carrying nuclear warheads. The Obama administration was well aware of Iran’s breach of the agreement, but decided to use more ambiguous terms to describe Iran’s actions in order to preserve the deal. Instead of Iran violating the deal, the Obama administration advised its representatives to simply say Iran’s actions were inconsistent with the deal. Why is the president going to such lengths to cover Iran’s back and maintain the deal? The implications of this willful oversight will prove to be deadly. Find out where this is leading on today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show.

The world’s problems are getting worse. And despite humanity’s best efforts to forge peace and unity, war and destruction still abound. Mankind has proven it is utterly incapable of solving the mounting crises of this age. Psalm 82:5 accurately says of our world, “[A]ll the foundations of the earth are out of course.” How did the world come to be in such a chaotic state? Where did it all start? And what is the solution? Learn the answers on today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show.

“TV Shows Are Going Way Too Far to Attract Viewers,” reads the title of a New York Post article published this week. “For nearly two decades, we’ve been told that this is the Golden Age of Television: the smartest, deepest storytelling, the most nuanced and morally complex characters, are found here,” the article begins. But the so-called "Golden Age" in television is actually the promotion of disgusting extremes in immorality and violence. How are these types of shows affecting their audiences? How should true Christians handle television in our modern world? Find out on today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show with Stephen Flurry.

The people managing the executive branch of government in the United States may look like adults, but their judgments and decisions reflect the mentality of children. Fox News recently ran a series of interviews with President Barack Obama’s first three defense secretaries, and all three shared one criticism in particular: Young and inexperienced White House staffers are running America’s wars and international affairs! This crisis in leadership has led to some disastrous decisions. On today’s show, Stephen Flurry compares the decline of America’s dominance with the astonishing transformation now happening in Europe.

As far as human governments go, the United States started about as right as any government man has ever produced. Critics today can say what they will about why it started right, but the Founding Fathers all seemed to be in perfect agreement on one important cornerstone: The nation would survive and prosper only if it was founded upon religion and morality. Were the founders wrong in believing this? Listen to today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show for more on this subject.
