The State of the World

​None of us know the day or hour of coming events, but we can all agree that it would be better to be prepared. In the first of the seven-part GODSPEED Magazine Battle Ready film series, Christ Fellowship Church (“North Georgia Revival”) Pastor Todd Smith, retired U.S. Army Chaplain (Col.) David Giammona, and Pulitzer Prize-nominated investigative journalist Troy Anderson help you grapple with our increasingly chaotic and dangerous world, teaching you how to walk in supernatural and miraculous protection and provision in the last days. Inspired by Giammona and Anderson’s new book – The Military Guide to Armageddon: Battle-Tested Strategies to Prepare Your Life and Soul for the End Times (Chosen Books/Baker Publishing Group, January 5, 2021) as well as Smith’s new book Creating a Habitation for God’s Glory – the series will reshape your worldview, reinvigorate your faith, and prepare you to be a “Battle Ready!” warrior of God in the end times.

How to Bring Urgency to a Sleeping Church

​For decades, the American church has been asleep at the wheel,
with pastors giving the equivalent of TED Talks, essentially life-
enhancement sermons, instead of preparing their congregations
for the array of threats facing America and the body of Christ. In

the second of this seven-part GODSPEED Magazine Battle Ready
film series, Christ Fellowship Church (“North Georgia Revival”)
Pastor Todd Smith, retired U.S. Army Chaplain (Col.) David
Giammona, and Pulitzer Prize-nominated investigative journalist
Troy Anderson talk about how pastors need to get into a war-time
footing and start preparing the army of the Lord for the things
happening on this planet right now. Inspired by Giammona and
Anderson’s new book – The Military Guide to Armageddon: Battle-
Tested Strategies to Prepare Your Life and Soul for the End Times (Chosen
Books/Baker Publishing Group, January 5, 2021) as well as
Smith’s new book Creating a Habitation for God’s Glory – the series
will walk you through what’s known in the military as the “the
making of a warrior” process – preparing you for battle in the
Lord’s army of the last days.

How to Apply Army Readiness Principles to Your Walk With The Lord

​In U.S. Army Basic Training, the mission of drill sergeants is to get
soldiers ready to “fight tonight!” Likewise, as events unfold
moving the world into the Antichrist system predicted in Scripture,
churches can no longer look at their parishioners as “sweet, lowly
sheep” to lead to greener pastures in the hope that they will have a
“great life,” but rather as “Battle Ready!” soldiers ready to fight
this present darkness and help bring in the last-days harvest. In the
third of this seven-part GODSPEED Magazine Battle Ready film
series, Christ Fellowship Church (“North Georgia Revival”) Pastor
Todd Smith, retired U.S. Army Chaplain (Col.) David Giammona,

and Pulitzer Prize-nominated investigative journalist Troy
Anderson talk about how to apply military readiness principles in
your walk with the Lord. Inspired by Giammona and Anderson’s
new book – The Military Guide to Armageddon: Battle-Tested Strategies to
Prepare Your Life and Soul for the End Times (Chosen Books/Baker
Publishing Group, January 5, 2021) as well as Smith’s new book
Creating a Habitation for God’s Glory – the series will teach you how
to walk in the miraculous power, protection and provision of the
Holy Spirit in the end times.

Episode 4

​Believer’s top priority is to be constantly vigilant and ready for
spiritual warfare, global insecurity, the rise of the Antichrist, and
return of Jesus Christ. In the fourth of this seven-part
GODSPEED Magazine Battle Ready film series, Christ Fellowship
Church (“North Georgia Revival”) Pastor Todd Smith, retired U.S.
Army Chaplain (Col.) David Giammona, and Pulitzer Prize-
nominated investigative journalist Troy Anderson talk about
“sustainable readiness” for believers in the end times and how
Christians need to be in constant training to meet the demands of
a global rise in persecution and stress in the end times. Inspired by
Giammona and Anderson’s new book – The Military Guide to
Armageddon: Battle-Tested Strategies to Prepare Your Life and Soul for the
End Times (Chosen Books/Baker Publishing Group, January 5,
2021) as well as Smith’s new book Creating a Habitation for God’s
Glory – the series will teach you how to seek the Lord constantly

and be renewed by the transforming of your mind so you will not
be deceived in the end times.

Episode 5

​A recent Lifeway Research poll found nine in 10 pastors see at
least some current events matching those Jesus Christ said would
occur shortly before His return to Earth, yet relatively few
ministers give sermons on biblical prophecies. Today, church and
ministry leaders need to educate, prepare and train people for
events already unfolding and events that will unfold in the end
times because “My people perish for lack of knowledge (Hosea
4:6).” In the fifth of this seven-part GODSPEED Magazine Battle
Ready film series, Christ Fellowship Church (“North Georgia
Revival”) Pastor Todd Smith, retired U.S. Army Chaplain (Col.)
David Giammona, and Pulitzer Prize-nominated investigative
journalist Troy Anderson talk about the need for a new paradigm
for church and ministry leaders to help believers prepare for
coming events. Inspired by Giammona and Anderson’s new book
– The Military Guide to Armageddon: Battle-Tested Strategies to Prepare
Your Life and Soul for the End Times (Chosen Books/Baker
Publishing Group, January 5, 2021) as well as Smith’s new book
Creating a Habitation for God’s Glory – the series teaches leaders how
to preach and teach the right information, the right words, and the
right sermons to their flocks and followers.

Episode 6

If someone put a gun to your head and told you to take the “Mark
of the Beast,” do you know where you would go if you died? If
you do not, you might take the mark and live under the Antichrist
system, not knowing Scripture warns that taking the mark will
result in your eternal separation from God. In this scenario, that
decision would become an extremely critical juncture in your lack
of knowledge that could condemn you to hell for all of eternity. In
the sixth of this seven-part GODSPEED Magazine Battle Ready
film series, Christ Fellowship Church (“North Georgia Revival”)
Pastor Todd Smith, retired U.S. Army Chaplain (Col.) David
Giammona, and Pulitzer Prize-nominated investigative journalist
Troy Anderson help you understand the importance of
“eschatology.” Inspired by Giammona and Anderson’s new book
– The Military Guide to Armageddon: Battle-Tested Strategies to Prepare
Your Life and Soul for the End Times (Chosen Books/Baker
Publishing Group, January 5, 2021) as well as Smith’s new book
Creating a Habitation for God’s Glory – the series helps you
understand why eschatology is an important tool to not only
survive the times we’re in, but walk in the supernatural power and
provision of God in the end times.

Episode 7

​As many people come to the conclusion that biblical prophecies
are unfolding in real time today, the most important thing is to
make sure you’re right with God, that you’ve asked Jesus Christ to
forgive you of your sins, and to transform your life. After that,
Christians need to be spiritually, psychologically, financially, and
physically prepared for whatever events will occur in the days

ahead. Grace will not cover unpreparedness. This is the time of
grace, giving us a season and an opportunity to prepare for the
second coming of Christ. In the final episode of this seven-part
GODSPEED Magazine Battle Ready film series, Christ Fellowship
Church (“North Georgia Revival”) Pastor Todd Smith, retired U.S.
Army Chaplain (Col.) David Giammona, and Pulitzer Prize-
nominated investigative journalist Troy Anderson talk about their
deep calling to prepare God’s people for what’s coming. Inspired
by Giammona and Anderson’s new book – The Military Guide to
Armageddon: Battle-Tested Strategies to Prepare Your Life and Soul for the
End Times (Chosen Books/Baker Publishing Group, January 5,
2021) as well as Smith’s new book Creating a Habitation for God’s
Glory – the series explores biblical prophecies, what they mean to
you, and what you need to understand about the end times.
