The Most Trusted Name In Eschatology
Glenn Beck had the authors of the Left Behind series on his show to discuss whether or not we're living in the End Times. Not a big deal, right? I mean, it's his radio show. It usually caters to a somewhat rightward audience that often puts great focus on theology.

All I ask is that my news networks stick to telling me the news and leave the doomsaying to Jack van Impe.
