from The Christian Worldview · host David Wheaton

Send us Fan MailGUEST: SOEREN KERN, geopolitical analystPresident Trump just returned from his first overseas trip of his second term. Where a president chooses to visit first is a signal of his priorities. That President Trump went to the Middle East and three Arab/Muslim countries—Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and United Arab Emirates (UAE)—speaks loudly about Trump’s hope to bring peace and prosperity to the Middle East. Interestingly, Trump did not visit Israel, even though he was in the region.Trillions of dollars in investments by Arab countries to American businesses were negotiated. Trump met with sketchy leaders like Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa and the Emir of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, who oddly gifted the U.S. a Boeing 747. Trump gave a major policy speech outlining his vision for the Middle East, which would have Saudi Arabia signing the Abraham Accords, a treaty normalizing relations between Arab nations and Israel. Meanwhile, Islamist Iran looms in the region, trying desperately to develop nuclear weapons.How to interpret all that took place? Christian geopolitical analyst Soeren Kern will join us this weekend on The Christian Worldview Radio Program to survey the many facets of President Trump’s trip and how it will impact America and our longtime ally Israel. Soeren will also discuss the upcoming U.N. Palestine Summit June 17-20 in New York, which aims to “Take Irreversible Action Towards Implementing a Two-State Solution.” These are some of the subjects Soeren will be addressing in more detail in the June 2025 issue of The Christian Worldview Journal monthly print publication that is sent to all Christian Worldview Partners.Is God close to enacting His end times plan of snatching away His church and allowing the antichrist to deceive the nations and persecute Israel before Christ’s return? We don’t know God’s timing but we’d better be alert and ready.
