I was just on the podcast Church and Other Drugs.
It was a very good in depth talk about the addiction to End Times speculation and my new novel Resistant.
We talked about Josephus, the Beast & The Harlot, mystery Babylon, Daniel, and exactly what DOES the bible have to say about the end of days?

I was on Parker’s Comparables, a podcast that engages differing interpretations of the Bible. Hosted by the wonderful hostess Parker J. Cole.
This one was on the book of Revelation. Are the prophecies of Revelation for our future or were they for the first century?
Then we focused on: Who is the Harlot that rides the Beast of Revelation?
Is she a symbol for modern America, as Doug Woodward believes?
Or is she a symbol for the first-century apostate Jewish priesthood as I argue for?
The discussion is mostly friendly until Doug breaks civility at one point and slanders me with a false ad hominem, an attack on the person instead of the idea or argument. But I called him out on it. I turned the tables on him, and then we got back to civility. Eschatology can get exciting! 🙂
I am telling you, this debate is an excellent example of why it is important to stick to Scripture rather than speculations when you want to understand prophecy.
I just released the third novel of my series Chronicles of the Apocalypse, that actually show you how the Harlot and the Beast play out in the first century.

Okay, I admit the headline is provocative and hyperbolic (just like Bible prophecy). I was only joking, Doug.
Actually, It was a VERY friendly discussion more than a debate. And it was more about discussing how the two viewpoints may differ rather than fighting out for who is right and who is wrong.
In fact, in light of the lack of civility today, I’d say this would be for people who want a more fair and open dialogue instead of everyone accusing everyone else of heresy.
Douglas Woodward took the more futurist position and Brian Godawa took the partial preterist position on the VERY FIRST PODCAST OF…
Parker’s Comparables! Parker is a friend and smart cookie podcaster. I think she’s onto something here.
You can watch it here.
Two hours of a theologically in-depth discussion about the Best-selling Biblical Fiction series Chronicles of the Apocalypse.
We talked about my personal testimony in apologetics and how it applies to eschatology and the End Times.
An excellent introduction to partial preterism and the prophecies of the Bible.
I was on the Conspirinormal podcast to talk about Hollywood and my new novel Remnant.
Here is what Adam Sayne of Conspirinormal writes about the interview:
We speak to Brian about his new book “Remnant” the second installment of his “Chronicles of the Apocalypse” series. Brian gets a little deeper into the Preterist view of End Times Prophecy and how it has influenced his work. We also discuss some of what is going on in Hollywood right now.
My interview starts at the 1 hour 15 minute mark.
I was a cohost on this Peeranormal episode, about Bible codes. Along with Michael Heiser, Doug Overmyer, Doug Van Dorn and Trey Stricklin.
Back in mid-nineties a peer-reviewed article was published that sought to legitimize the idea that the Hebrew text of Genesis encrypted meaningful information about modern persons and events. Their method for detecting the presumed encrypted knowledge was known as equidistant letter sequencing (ELS).This article (Witztum, Rips, and Rosenberg) became a reference point for journalist Michael Drosnin, who wrote the bestselling book, The Bible Code, shortly thereafter. Subsequent to the success of Drosnin’s book, Bible-code research expanded to the full Torah and beyond, to the rest of the Hebrew Bible. In this episode we ask whether there is such a thing as ELS Bible codes. Have other statisticians and biblical scholars agreed with Witztum, Rips, and Rosenberg, or are there serious problems with the method and its assumptions?
I was on the Clear Lens podcast with Nate Sala.
A great time talking about my journey out of Dispensationalism and Left Behindism.
And talking about my new novel, Remnant: Rescue of the Elect.
The Remnant 144,000 in Revelation are the Jewish Christians who fled Jerusalem in the first century to avoid the wrath of God that was coming upon the city.
I had a great interview with Mike Indest on his new podcast Down the Line here.
We talked about the Last Days in the New Testament, my journey out of Left Behindism, and how the book of Revelation was fulfilled in the first century.
Modern day prophecy pundits are speculative like conspiracy theories. They are always wrong, and they are always changing.
These guys like beer and theology. fascinating combination.
I start around 9 minutes in. I first talk about my screenwriting career.
Then we talk about how I gave up on “Left Behindism.”
And then I talk about the story of first century Rome vs. Jerusalem in the storyline of my series Chronicles of the Apocalypse.
Spiritual warfare stories. Supernatural worldview, and more!
Wait? How can that be? Haven’t we been told Revelation is about the judgment of the earth?
Well it’s not what they told you…
Shocking, yes, only because of a modern bias in interpreting the Bible through our worldview, instead of the ancient Jewish worldview.
A great discussion with Derek Gilbert, who does not agree with my view, but is very willing to entertain the conversation.
We talk all about my novels the Chronicles of the Apocalypse as well as the historical event of the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple in AD 70 and how it fits Matthew 24 and the book of Revelation.
You will find this fascinating.
