Greetings from the Five Cities region of California.
There was political terror in the USA yesterday as Charlie Kirk, a conservative voice and media personality, was assassinated while speaking in Utah.
In the USA, many are commemorating the 9/11 terror attacks today–but few realize that worse terror is prophesied to hit the North American and British peoples (see 9/11-More terrorism will hit the United States).
That said, please understand that the Fall Holy Day season is almost upon us. Because of that, we put out the following as the recommended sermon for this Sabbath: Christians and Fall Holy Days?
The first Fall Holy Day is the Feast of Trumpets which runs from sunset 22 September through sunset 23 September in 2025.
Feast of Tabernacles 2025
Remember to be preparing for the Feast of Tabernacles.
Church services for the Feast of Tabernacles in 2025 are to begin at sunset on October 6th and run through (including the Last Great Day) sunset October 14th in 2025.
The site for North America is to be in Oklahoma City as we have a signed agreement to have the Embassy Suites by Hilton Oklahoma City Downtown Medical Center in Oklahoma. Here is its location and mailing address: 741 North Phillips Avenue Oklahoma City, OK 73104. That is where services are expected to be held in North America–note: you do NOT need to stay at that hotel in order to attend services there.
Our elder in India informed me that they are preparing a location in eastern India.
We are also looking at the possibility of a very small site in Chile this year.
That said, here is a listing of planned festival sites in Africa:

Podcast and Podcast Award?
Though the podcast host had some technical issues, I was able to do an interview with her, which is supposed to air in October. According to the host:
The show will be available on approximately 20 audio platforms, 3 national radio networks, Family Talk – SiriusXM – 131, as well as 15+ TV platforms such as Christian Television Network (Nashville, Pensacola), Sacramento Faith TV, FreedomProject Media, Frank Speech, LightSource, God’s Learning Channel, BEK TV, LiftableTV and more.
So, that looks like we will reach many that we otherwise would not. The hostess also said she wants me on again to discuss “the rapture.” We had a non-recorded discussion of the topic and she has moved from an evangelical Protestant view of when Jesus returns to one closer to ours.
On other podcast related news, on the Sabbath, I received the following email:
Hi Dr. Bob,
I emailed regarding your podcast Bible News Prophecy Radio which was selected by MillionPodcasts as one of the Top 100 Prophecy Podcasts on the web.
When I went to the link, it shows that we are number 35 on that list.
We received something like this before related to our magazine from FeedSpot. And while we are not sure what the criteria MillionPodcasts used, we are pleased when others will promote our literature, videos, and other biblical teachings.
That said, we suggest caution before any one give them their email address, etc. as we have no real relationship with this worldly organization nor did we submit anything to be considered for their “award.”
The Apostle Paul was inspired to write:
15 Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from goodwill: 16 The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains; 17 but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel. 18 What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes, and will rejoice. (Philippians 1:15-18)
So, whether MillionPodcasts is promoting us for spreading the truth or for “selfish ambition,” we can rejoice that their promotion of our magazine helps preach the gospel.
