What in the world is going on with Greenland… and why does Iran seem to always be one headline away from a global crisis?
In this episode, Brian and Lauren sit down with Dr. Glen Duerr, Chair of History and Government and Professor of International Studies at Cedarville University, to break down two major geopolitical situations that most of us hear about — but don’t fully understand.
Together they unpack:
Why Greenland matters strategically on the world stage
How global powers think about territory, influence, and security
The ongoing tensions surrounding Iran and why the region remains so volatile
How international conflicts develop — and why they’re rarely as simple as they seem
What Christians should keep in mind when thinking about global politics and conflict
If the news feels overwhelming or confusing, this conversation brings clarity, context, and thoughtful perspective to two situations shaping today’s global landscape.
