Many Are Deconstructing The Bible - Ep. 855 - February 18, 2026

Deconstructing is trending, but the Bible doesn't need edits to stay true. In Ep. 855 of The Smith and Rowland Show, Smith and Rowland respond to a viral pitch for an "Original Yeshua Testament" that dismisses everything after the Gospels.

They break down why this kind of "Jesus only" framing sounds spiritual, yet strips away the cross, the atonement, and the authority of Scripture. Along the way, they talk about how deception spreads through emotion and marketing, why "original manuscripts" claims get abused, and why rightly dividing the Word matters when people start cutting books out of the Bible.

The Old-Fashioned Way - Ep. 854 - February 16, 2026

Culture and law are colliding, and Christian schools are in the crosshairs. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland break down a fast-moving Debate over whether the progressive left is legislating Christianity out of American life, one regulation at a time.

First, they react to examples from California, New York, and Colorado, where accreditation rules and state mandates pressure faith-based schools, camps, and adoption agencies to conform. Next, they discuss Virginia House Bill 359 and the push to treat tax credits as public funds, which can bring new control over private Christian education. Along the way, they talk about separation of church and state, vouchers, and why churches and parents must take responsibility for educating Children without trading convictions for government approval.

Listen for a clear warning about "small compromises" and why the "old-fashioned way" still matters when pressure keeps rising.

The Stealing of Our Children - Ep. 853 - February 12, 2026

Are politics and faith getting blurred on live TV? In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, the guys react to a clip from The View and a growing Debate over "theological liberalism" versus biblical Christianity. They break down how Bible language gets used to defend public policy, especially around transgender medical procedures for minors, and why that matters for parents.

Next, the conversation widens to the "Save Act," voter ID, and the trust problem that follows when leaders push radical ideas while claiming moral authority. Along the way, they warn about government overreach, the pressure on families, and the long-term cost to Children caught in adult fights.

This Podcast episode is blunt, opinionated, and focused on one theme: protecting kids, telling the truth, and refusing to let culture rewrite the Bible.

Unity or Uniformity? - Ep. 852 - February 11, 2026

Unity sounds great, until it turns into Uniformity. In this Podcast episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Jeff Rowland and Alan Smith break down the difference, then apply it to a growing ecumenical push where "unity" gets treated as the highest virtue.

First, they react to a covenant between church leaders and the claim that every division is a sin. Next, they compare that claim to what Scripture actually teaches, because some divisions are commanded and some convictions can't be traded away. Along the way, they talk about where real Christian Unity starts (the blood of Christ), why signed documents don't create spiritual agreement, and how "unity" can get used as pressure to compromise on salvation and the gospel.

If you care about Bible authority, discernment, and the line between cooperation and compromise, this episode lays it out plainly.

Super Bowl LX Halftime Show - Ep. 850 - February 9, 2026

Super Bowl LX got political fast, and the Halftime shows became the headline. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, the guys break down why the NFL and other pro leagues now act like activist groups, not just sports leagues, and why that shift matters for Christians and conservatives.

They compare the Super Bowl spectacle to Rome’s games, talk through the “battlefield” inside big-time sports, and explain why expecting any political group to run a worship service sets you up for disappointment. You’ll also hear a clear take on voting, why it isn’t a sacrament, and why expectations need to match what an organization is built to do.

Is Glenn Beck's Prophecy True? - Ep. 849 - February 6, 2026

Glenn Beck’s dream about the White House, spiritual warfare, and a warning for the times. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, we play the clip, then break down what it could mean for America, the church, and anyone trying to follow Christ with a clear conscience.

You’ll hear our take on prophetic dreams, why not every dream is from God, and why some should be weighed with sobriety. We also connect Beck’s account to Ephesians 6, the reality of principalities and powers, and the pressure believers face when politics turns into a spiritual fight in public view.

If you’re looking for a faith-first analysis of Glenn Beck, Prophecy, and the wider spiritual battle behind today’s headlines, this Podcast episode lays it out in plain language.

Epidemic of Immaturity In The Church: Consequences - Ep. 848 - February 5, 2026

Immaturity in the Church doesn’t stay private, it always has Consequences. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Smith and Rowland talk straight about what feeds spiritual immaturity, what happens when preaching avoids sin, and why division often shows up as a symptom, not the root.

You’ll also hear a clear distinction between unity and uniformity, and why believers can disagree on doctrine without tearing each other apart. The conversation widens to the culture wars Christians face right now, including “natural” vs “unnatural” sin, and why the Church is fighting on more than one front.

This episode lands on leadership and character, and why failure isn’t the end. Staying down is where the damage grows. If you’ve had a spiritual wreck and feel stuck, this is your reminder to get up and keep going.

Epidemic of Immaturity in the Church - Ep. 847 - February 4, 2026

Is the Church facing an Epidemic of Immaturity? In Ep. 847 of The Smith and Rowland Show (February 4, 2026), Allan Smith and Jeff Rowland talk about what happens when pulpits stop calling sin, sin, and why that choice produces shallow faith, weak discipline, and fragile believers.

This episode connects spiritual growth to emotional maturity, then gets practical about daily obedience (Scripture, prayer, self-discipline) as the steady path forward. They also share the “fast track” to maturity, sacrifice, laying down self-interest, serving others, and even laying down personal vision when God calls for it.

Watch for a direct conversation on:

 * Why avoiding the word “sinner” waters down truth
 * How milk vs. meat shows up in real church life
 * Why daily Bible reading matters, even when you don’t “feel” results
 * How emotional instability ties back to spiritual drift
 * Why sacrifice forms Christlike character faster than comfort ever will

Theology vs. Ideology - Ep. 846 - February 3, 2026

When “sinner” becomes offensive, something deeper is going on. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Jeff and Alan talk about Theology vs. Ideology, and how people build belief systems that excuse what Scripture calls sin. They connect it to Genesis, the danger of speaking for God with “God doesn’t expect…,” and why watered-down preaching leaves people unprepared for real spiritual conflict.

This Podcast also gets practical, how culture shifted from reverence for the Lord’s Day to Sunday as “our day,” and how that change followed years of small compromises.
