Global Reset: Do Current Events Point to the Antichrist and His Worldwide Empire?
By Mark Hitchcock and Jeff Kinney (Thomas Nelson)
The 2020s rolled out a season of global anxiety. Pandemic furor receded, yet aftershocks rippled out in sociological upheaval. Bible scholars Mark Hitchcock and Jeff Kinley track winds of global change with a biblical lens: Russia invading Ukraine, technological tracking in China, American government gorging on power, swelling hyper-inflation—all creating updrafts of alarm and speculation.
The authors write prolifically on end times, with almost 70 books combined. Global Reset presents answers to the questions that may keep us up at night, including: Does COVID-19 mark the beginning of end-time events?
Information packs their slim volume of easy reading. Fifteen pages of endnotes support the book’s sometimes alarming assertions, especially: “As of 2021, the official ‘Doomsday Clock’ was set to 100 seconds to midnight.” Dramatic prose will lead some to categorize such rhetoric as “tabloid geopolitics” or “evangelizing fear.” Yet, the authors anchor their propositions in biblical exegesis and seminary credentials.
In anxious times, Global Reset provides a succinct analysis of biblical prophecy from shifting world horizons. Two storm-chasing pastors of prophetic events seek to strengthen faith in a God who controls the future as dark clouds roll in.
