Humanity and the planet are experiencing many profound changes, and even more profound changes are coming. Many prophecies point to our current time as one of major change-from 534 B.C., when the angel Gabriel first told the prophet Daniel there is a time set for the end of this age, to the Edgar Cayce statement that now is the time of which the Archangel Gabriel spoke. Our planet will change. Our bodies will change. The people of the earth will be changed. A new world is going to begin, transforming us for the long awaited new age.

John Van Auken, author and researcher of such prophecies, will present an in-depth look at what has been predicted for our times and why change must occur. His presentation will include the prophecies of the Bible, the Archangel Gabriel, Jesus, the Book of Revelation, Nostradamus, the Bishop of Malachy, the monk of Padua, Mary, the mother of Jesus, and the modern seer, Edgar Cayce. John will also use starmaps, indicating the movement of the sun through the ages and where they are now. He will present metaphysical changes of the planet and our bodies, social and political changes in many nations, and religious changes that will yield a new worldview of life's purpose and God's role for us. He will also address the latest issues among Jews, Christians, and Muslims, as well as the future of the major religions.

Despite the magnitude of some of the changes John will be discussing, he presents a very positive approach, following the spirit of Jesus' analogy that the changes are simply the "birth pains" of a new age of enlightenment, global community, closer harmony with nature, and a more cosmic consciousness of Universal Forces.
