Ken Norton opens this series by drawing a striking parallel to the prophetic warnings of Scripture. What makes people so complacent in the face of an approaching storm? And are we doing the same today? --- ### Episode 2 — Preparing for the Storm **Available:** Yes (released April 24, 2026) **Runtime:** 26:53 **Watch:** https://theapproachingstorm.com/episodes/preparing-for-the-storm Before the storm hits, there is a window to prepare. Drawing from Ellen White's writings and the parable of the ten virgins, Ken Norton explores what spiritual preparation looks like in practical terms — and why many who appear faithful today may find themselves unprepared when the time of trial comes. --- ### Episode 3 — The Sunday Law **Available:** Yes (released May 1, 2026) **Runtime:** 32:22 **Watch:** https://theapproachingstorm.com/episodes/the-sunday-law Is a national Sunday law really coming? Ken Norton examines the growing erosion of the wall between church and state — including specific policy recommendations already embedded in current U.S. government documents — and what Bible prophecy says about where this trajectory leads. --- ### Episode 4 — The Shaking, Part One **Available:** Yes (released May 8, 2026) **Runtime:** 32:22 **Watch:** https://theapproachingstorm.com/episodes/the-shaking-part-one A tornado tears through a care facility, leaving it looking fine on the surface — but instruments reveal the walls are deadly beneath. Ken Norton uses this story to introduce the Biblical concept of the Shaking: a purifying crisis coming upon the church that will separate the genuine from the counterfeit. --- ### Episode 5 — The Shaking, Part Two **Available:** Yes (released May 15, 2026) **Runtime:** 34:05 **Watch:** https://theapproachingstorm.com/episodes/the-shaking-part-two What causes the Shaking, and how will we know when it's happening? Ken Norton traces the Shaking back to its origins in heaven itself, examines the two missing tribes of Revelation 7, and brings the series' central message into sharp focus: knowing Jesus now is the only preparation that matters. --- ### Episode 6 — Latter Rain / Loud Cry **Available:** Coming May 22, 2026 **Watch:** https://theapproachingstorm.com/episodes/latter-rain-loud-cry The final outpouring of the Holy Spirit will empower God's people to carry the gospel to every nation with a power unlike anything seen before. Ken Norton unpacks Revelation 18's Loud Cry, what the Latter Rain is and how to receive it, and the role every believer is called to play in this last-days movement. --- ### Episode 7 — Earth's Final Moments **Available:** Coming May 29, 2026 **Watch:** https://theapproachingstorm.com/episodes/earths-final-moments From the close of probation to the Second Coming — Ken Norton traces the final sequence of earth's history: the seven last plagues, the death decree, the time of Jacob's trouble, and ultimately the return of Jesus. Not as a message of fear, but as the fulfillment of a promise God has been keeping since the beginning. --- ## About Voice of Prophecy Voice of Prophecy (VOP) is the broadcast ministry of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
