What if the biggest threat facing the Church isn’t what’s coming—but our failure to recognize what’s already here?
In this episode of The Berean Files, Zack and Jason sit down with Jamie Walden, author of Omega Dynamics: Equipping a Warrior Class of Christians for the Days Ahead, for a wide-ranging conversation about spiritual warfare, deception, UFO disclosure, the end times, preparedness, and the condition of the modern Church.
Jamie also gives his firsthand account of the controversial meeting involving pastors, military and government-connected individuals, and the UFO/UAP conversation. Was it really a secret government briefing preparing pastors for alien disclosure? Jamie was actually there—and says the viral version of the story misses what happened.
But the conversation goes much deeper.
We explore the danger of pride and division within Christian “truth” communities, the difference between knowledge and genuine faith, why Jesus calls us to become like children, artificial intelligence and humanity’s obsession with knowledge, end-times speculation, the coming great deception, and whether Christians are spiritually prepared for what may lie ahead.
Jamie also makes the case for biblical preparedness—not fear-driven survivalism, but faithful obedience that allows Christians to remain useful to the Body of Christ and advance the Gospel in difficult times.
Ultimately, this conversation comes back to a much simpler question: Are we actually following Jesus—or have fear, pride, knowledge, self-preservation, and the noise of the world distracted us from Him?
Topics include: • The truth about the alleged “secret UFO pastor meeting” • UFO/UAP disclosure and the Church • The coming great deception • Spiritual warfare and deception • Pride and division in Christian truth communities • Knowledge vs. childlike faith • AI, transhumanism, and the pursuit of knowledge • End-times prophecy and speculation • Whether the Church is prepared for what’s ahead • Biblical preparedness vs. fear-based prepping • Becoming a “warrior” for Christ • Conviction, repentance, and spiritual readiness

The headlines feel heavy, and questions about the end times are everywhere. But Jesus didn't call us to panic. He called us to be faithful: to love God with everything we have, to love our neighbor, and to make disciples, teaching others all that He commanded. In this episode, Zack and Jason ask a simple question: if we really are living in the last days, what should change about who we are and how we live today? Growing your own food, raising animals, being ready for hard times? That's great, but it's not the point. The real preparation is walking with God every single day, getting right with the people around us, and letting Him lead our lives. We also talk about the cross that recently fell on a priest and what we should (and shouldn't) read into moments like that. Guest views are their own; Scripture is our final authority.
