CURRENT PROGRAM: OCTOBER 31, 2026

GUEST: TODD STARNES, award-winning journalist at Newsmax TV

According to a public relations company, the news cycle is “a continuous process of news generation, distribution, and consumption that describes how media outlets create, report, and replace news stories throughout a given time period.”

Today, in our age 24-7 media and everyone with a phone and camera posting on social media, the news cycle doesn’t last long. A story is posted, shared, consumed, and then replaced with the next story in the blink of an eye.

It’s hard to keep up or absorb the significance of what is taking place all around us…because the next news story is there to grab our attention.

This weekend on The Christian Worldview, Todd Starnes, the Christian and conservative journalist and host at Newsmax who has lived the news cycle during his long career, will join us to discuss several current events, from the war in Iran to once-trusted conservatives turning against President Trump and Israel to the growth of Islam in Europe and the United States to the president posting an image of himself that most thought represented Jesus.

Scripture calls Christians to be alert and discerning and that’s what we aim to do as we examine some of the major events in the world today, knowing that it’s not merely a news cycle but God moving all things toward the return of His Son.
