Hey Chad,

Chris here from the UK

I just wanted to say — I absolutely love what you shared. It really hit me deep, in a strange but powerful way.

The truth is, I don’t know all the ins and outs of religion. I don’t know the Bible like some people do. I don’t know all the details, the chapters, the teachings. But even with all that, I truly believe there’s something out there — something bigger than us — because honestly, none of this makes any sense without it.

And looking at the world now… man, it’s frightening. I honestly feel like everything started to shift long before COVID, but COVID was the moment it all really ramped up. It’s like they slammed the world into overdrive, and we haven’t slowed down since.

Especially now, here in the UK. They’re standing there with straight faces, admitting they're going to spray the sky to dim the sun — like it’s perfectly normal. Like they haven't already been doing it for years. It's insulting, honestly. It’s like they don’t even try to hide it anymore, like they think we're too blind or too beaten down to care.

And since COVID, the pace of it all — the fear, the control, the division — it’s only gotten worse. And it terrifies me, Chad. I’ve got three young kids. I’m 51 now. I’ve lived a good chunk of my life. But my kids… they’re still just starting theirs. They're only 10, 11, and 14 years old. They’ve got their whole futures ahead of them — and I lie awake some nights wondering, what kind of world are they stepping into?

I grew up in the '80s and '90s — and honestly, it was a golden time. Life felt freer, safer, more real. But now? Now it feels like everything’s crumbling around us. And if I'm being brutally honest… I’m scared for them. I’m scared for all of us.

Something’s coming. I can feel it deep in my bones. And it’s not good. Civil wars, unrest, chaos — I don't know exactly what form it’s going to take, but it’s brewing. You can see it if you just stop and really look. And honestly, Chad, I don’t know how anyone could look around right now and still think everything’s fine. Because it’s not. It's really, really not.

As for the Bible… maybe all of this ties in somehow. I don’t know. I wish I understood it better. I wish there was a version for people like me — something simpler, more direct. Because sometimes I struggle to take it all in. I’m better with audiobooks, or listening to someone break it down in a way that feels real.

But even without understanding every scripture or every teaching, I know in my gut that something is wrong. And if I’m completely honest with you — it scares the absolute life out of me.

It's clear God’s hand has been on your journey the whole time, even in the chaos, even in the drifting. He’s been patiently, faithfully leading you to the Truth, and now He's using you as a light for others who are still wandering. I'm honored and humbled to have played even a small part in your story. Keep chasing after Him. He’s not done with you, not even close. Proud of you, and grateful to call you a friend.

I'm so happy that God has been opening your eyes spiritually! I was in a similar boat for a long time. My brother was reading The Late Great Planet Earth and it all sounded crazy until it all started coming to pass. Please don't stop pursuing truth and asking questions. Seek and you will find.
