In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, the conversation gets blunt fast as the hosts compare communism, socialism, and the Bible's teaching on communal living. They trace the history of the hippie movement, Woodstock, the Jesus movement, and Acts 2, then draw a hard line between Christian generosity and political systems that try to copy it without Christ.
The discussion also tackles a bigger question facing the country right now: when does political ideology start replacing biblical thinking? From New York politics and public policy to lawlessness, redistribution, and the role of the church, this episode lays out the argument in plain language. If you want a direct conversation about socialism, communism, the antichrist, the kingdom of God, and why these ideas keep showing up in modern politics, this one is for you.
You'll hear:
How Acts 2 is used in the conversation about communal living
Why the hosts see socialism and communism as imitation systems
What happens when political ideas start to sound spiritual
Why Christian charity and kingdom principles matter more than ideology
How this debate connects to current headlines and the future of America
This is a strong, unfiltered discussion about faith, government, morality, and the pressure to replace biblical truth with a political program. Watch through and think carefully about what kind of system can actually work, and what kind of heart it takes to make it work at all.

The Smith and Rowland Show takes on a provocative question in this episode: could the push for a third temple in Israel lead to something far bigger than most people expect?
Jeff and Alan react to a recent prophecy news article about rising support in Israel for rebuilding the temple on the Temple Mount, including reports of temple preparation, priestly training, and sacred vessels already being made. They also connect that discussion to Ezekiel, 2 Thessalonians, Daniel, and the larger biblical timeline surrounding the tribulation, the Antichrist, and the return of Christ.
Along the way, they challenge some recent media claims about dispensationalism, Israel, and church history, and they make a strong case for reading Scripture literally when it speaks about the end times. The conversation also turns practical, with a look at spiritual holding patterns, worship in this generation, and why so many believers sense that something major is shifting.
If you follow Bible prophecy, Israel news, end-times teaching, or dispensational theology, this episode gives you a lot to think about.

On this July 4th episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Jeff Rowland and Alan Smith take on the state of America with humor, hard questions, and a sharp look at where the country is headed.
The conversation starts with a sponsor joke about "Coffee Bean," then moves into a serious discussion about birthright citizenship, immigration, socialism, communism, campus politics, and the cultural shift that both hosts say our founders never would have recognized. They also talk about the rise of pride events in major cities, the growing influence of progressive ideology, the pressure Christians face for speaking plainly, and why the battlefield for America's future is now sitting in front of college students.
This episode also includes discussion of Charlie Kirk, the role of college campuses in shaping public opinion, the weakening of biblical values in American life, and the need for Christians to wake up, pray, and get back to work. The hosts don't hold back, and they connect current headlines to history, faith, and the direction of the nation.
If you want candid commentary on American politics, culture, faith, and the fight over ideas shaping the next generation, this episode is for you. Watch the full conversation and hear why Jeff and Alan believe the real struggle is bigger than headlines, it's about the future of the country itself.

Asbury College's stand on biblical marriage has sparked a bigger conversation about faithfulness, revival, and the cost of obeying Scripture.
In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, the discussion moves from a sponsor joke about "Stopwatch" to a serious look at Asbury College, the United Methodist Church, and the pressure on Christians to compromise. The conversation gets into Asbury's legacy of revival, the 2023 move of God on campus, and why a school with a long history of biblical conviction was removed from fellowship after refusing to rewrite its view of marriage.
Jeff and Alan also connect this moment to a larger pattern in church life and American culture. They talk about how cultural pressure, woke ideology, socialism, and communism all push from within, while the church is often tempted to stay quiet. That leads to one central question, what does it cost to stand for truth when the approval of people, denominations, and institutions is on the line?
This episode also touches on Jordan Peterson, Charlie Kirk, the role of preaching, and why the gospel of Jesus Christ is still the only real hope for a lost nation. If you care about Asbury, revival, biblical authority, and the state of the church in America, this conversation is one you need to hear.
Watch, listen, and weigh the question for yourself, are we willing to pay the price for faithfulness?

The Smith and Rowland Show takes on a troubling headline in this episode, as Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland discuss Asbury Theological Seminary being removed from the United Methodist approval list after refusing to abandon the Bible's teaching on marriage.
This conversation goes beyond one school and one decision. The guys walk through Asbury's long history of revival, including major spiritual outpourings on campus in 1905, 1908, 1921, 1950, 1958, 1970, 1992, 2006, and the widely discussed 2023 Asbury outpouring. They also talk about what made those moments stand out, prayer, confession, repentance, worship, reconciliation, and a hunger for God's Word.
Along the way, Alan and Jeff confront the larger drift inside the United Methodist Church, the pressure to conform biblical convictions to culture, and the growing conflict between Scripture and modern ideology. Their discussion is direct, plainspoken, and rooted in the conviction that Christians should stand on the authority of God's Word, no matter the cost.
If you care about revival history, biblical conviction, church doctrine, and the future of the American church, this episode is one you'll want to hear all the way through.

America loses its identity when it loses its story, and this conversation gets straight to the point.
In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Jeff Rowland and Alan Smith talk about biblical literacy, replacement theology, anti-Semitism, and why the Bible matters to the health of a nation. They connect current events, church teaching, and public policy to one central issue, whether people still understand the story that shaped America and the biblical view of Israel.
The discussion starts with a look at an article on national identity, then moves into the dangers of replacing history with a new narrative. The conversation also touches on New York politics, the rise of anti-Israel rhetoric, and the wider impact of teaching that weakens the church's view of Scripture. Jeff and Alan make the case that when the church loses clarity, the culture follows.
They also talk about why dispensational Bible teaching matters, why understanding Scripture is different from simply memorizing it, and why the parable of the sower points to more than just hearing the Word. Growth comes with understanding, and that point drives the whole episode.
If you care about biblical truth, the future of the church, and the connection between Scripture and national identity, this episode is worth your time.
Watch, listen, and judge the argument for yourself.

America's identity is slipping when its history, faith, and civic memory are no longer taught, known, or respected.
In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, the conversation turns to biblical literacy, public education, the rise of socialist ideas in American politics, and the growing hostility toward Israel. The hosts also discuss a recent article built around Samuel Huntington's warning that a nation can't stay united without a shared culture, history, and moral frame.
The discussion draws a hard line between biblical literacy and national memory. When people lose the story of Scripture, they lose the language that helped shape American law, freedom, and public life. The result shows up in classrooms, churches, elections, and the way people think about Israel and the Jewish people.
This episode also pushes back on replacement theology, confusion in the pulpit, and the way many churches read the Bible through personal bias instead of the text itself. If you care about the future of the church, the state of the nation, and the meaning of biblical truth, this is a conversation you need to hear.

Acts 19 shows that an open door is never free. When God gives access, He also gives responsibility, pressure, and a call to stay faithful.
In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith teaches from the book of Acts with Paul's letters placed right back into the Acts period. That approach brings clarity to Paul's message and helps connect the history, the teaching, and the mission in a way that's easy to follow.
Lesson 118 focuses on Acts 19, "The Cost of an Open Door." Alan walks through a line-by-line Bible study that keeps the attention on Scripture, not opinion. He shows how Paul's ministry moved forward because God kept opening doors, even when the next step was all he was given.
This teaching also looks at the riot in Ephesus, where truth collided with money, idols, and public pressure. The city's massive theater, the crowd's confusion, and the warning signs around Paul all point to a serious lesson, influence brings accountability. Even strong leaders need counsel, and even a clear calling still requires wisdom.
Alan also draws out a needed warning for believers today. Speculation is not discernment. Strong emotion is not the Holy Spirit. A crowd can shout for hours and still have no real understanding of what is true. That lesson matters in a church, in a family, and in the age of constant noise.
If you've ever prayed for an open door, this message will challenge the way you think about it. God's access comes with obedience, steadiness, and a readiness to keep moving when the path isn't fully lit.
Watch this teaching and hear why faithfulness matters more than applause.

Jesus, covenant, failure, and restoration are at the center of this conversation.
In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan and Jeff talk through Luke 22, where Jesus speaks about the new covenant in His blood, then connect it to Peter's denial, the pressure of failure, and the way the Lord restores His people. The discussion moves through Scripture with a clear focus on God's covenants with Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, and all who belong to Christ.
The heart of the message is simple. God keeps His word. His covenant is not built on human strength, and it does not depend on a perfect record. It rests on the blood of Jesus Christ. That is why the conversation about Peter matters so much. Peter failed hard, yet Jesus prayed for him, looked past the failure, and saw what was ahead.
The episode also touches on the difference between the old covenant and the new covenant, the meaning of forgiveness, and why the blood of Christ changes everything for the believer. If you have ever wrestled with guilt, doubt, or your own weakness, this discussion points back to the only answer that holds, God's mercy and Christ's finished work.
Alan and Jeff also talk about revival, the power of preaching, and why a clear view of God's covenant can stir fresh hope in the church. It is honest, grounded, and built around Scripture.

They also push back on the rising support for socialism in America, the way public leaders handle disagreements, and why some issues should never be aired out in front of the whole world.
The conversation gets blunt fast. The hosts talk about Israel's long history of surviving war, exile, and repeated attacks, then explain why they believe Israel's security cannot be tied to any one political leader.

This episode also gets into the spiritual side of the issue. Alan Smith & Jeff Rowland discuss biblical prophecy, America's relationship with Israel, and why replacement theology still matters in today's public debates. If you care about Israel, U.S. foreign policy, Bible prophecy, or the direction of American politics, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.
