In this episode, Pete and Peyton dive into one of the most explosive topics resurfacing online today: End Times theology. With Revelation videos going viral on TikTok and Instagram, people—especially younger generations—are asking fresh questions about the last days, the Antichrist, and whether current events signal something bigger. Peyton unpacks how church planters can step into that conversation with clarity instead of confusion.

Together, they explore the difference between dispensationalism, covenant theology, and historicist readings of Scripture, why many popular End Times interpretations miss the point, and how Jesus’ words in Matthew 24–25 fit into the larger storyline of redemptive history. Peyton highlights key resources that help ground leaders in sanity, not sensationalism—and explains why getting Revelation right matters for mission, evangelism, and discipleship.

Whether you love talking prophecy or avoid it at all costs, this episode will equip you to lead your people wisely, pastor skeptics compassionately, and keep the gospel at the center of the cultural conversation swirling around the End Times.

What happens when hardly anyone shows up to church, the worship leader is gone, there’s no sermon prepared, and the pastor is running on four hours of sleep? Most church planters would cancel. Peyton didn’t—and it turned into one of the most meaningful Sundays he’s ever experienced.

In this episode, Peyton tells the story of a tiny gathering that turned into a powerhouse discipleship moment. A recovering addict asked real questions. A brand-new believer learned how to pray out loud for the first time. Walls dropped, Scripture came alive, and the Spirit showed up in ways no carefully planned service could have produced.

This episode is a reminder that church planting is not about the show—it’s about people. When you let discipleship take the lead, Jesus gets the spotlight.

If you’ve ever wondered how to create a culture where people talk, ask honest questions, pray for each other, and grow on Sundays—not just listen—this one is for you.
