For more than forty years, Iran's leaders have consistently declared hostility toward America and openly called for Israel's destruction. So why do so many in the media still believe the regime can simply be talked into changing? In this episode of Allen Jackson Now, Pastor Allen Jackson welcomes Cliff May, founder and president of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, to examine the ideology driving Iran's regime and why understanding that worldview is essential to understanding the Middle East. Pastor Allen challenges viewers to think critically about the information they consume. Whether the topic is Israel, border security, COVID-era narratives, or other major news stories, he encourages Christians to measure every narrative against truth.

They also discuss the latest on the Iran conflict, election integrity, and the status of the SAVE America Act in the Senate. Pastor Allen reminds us that lasting freedom cannot be sustained by elections alone. We must resist the temptation to remain silent in the public square. We are called to engage, speak truth, and influence the communities where God has placed us.

Why does it feel like the world has changed so dramatically in just a few short years?

Pastor Allen reminds us that followers of Jesus are never abandoned. The same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead lives within us, giving us hope, courage, and confidence for whatever lies ahead.
