Do You Know Elishama?

Wild Wolf

White Fang was one of Jack London's best books. It tells the story of an animal, half dog, and half wolf, who became devoted to his master and live among men. It is a wonderful story with many lessons to learn and taught along the way. White Fang loved to kill chickens, and today we look at how he learned not to kill them and the lesson we can learn from it as well. We would love to hear your comments.

If I Were The Devil. Paul Harvey

Two weeks from today the United States will hold its mid-term elections.

I Can See Clearly Now

Our eyes can deceive us. Just because we make a conclusion because of what we saw, does not mean that the conclusion is correct. We are often apt to make bold statements based on incomplete facts, which will almost always lead to problems. Today we look at a simple case of a new resident in town who condemned her neighbor's ability to do laundry. Originally broadcast April 26, 2021 We would love to hear your comments.

The Deadly Tongue

Destroying people's reputations through gossip is nothing new. Paul talks about the problem of gossip in the New Testament times. And gossip is still a problem. In fact it is and even greater problem because today people can hide behind their social media identities and say whatever they want with little accountability. Today we talk about this problem of gossip and how easy it is for even mature Christians to get caught up in it. We would love to hear your comments. Send us a Text Message Suppo...

Worthy of My Song

Today is Thanksgiving Day here in Canada so we are talking about being thankful and looking at a new song from Phil Wickham, Worthy of My Song.

Code Languages

When my brother and I were very young, our parents would sometimes speak in a code language so that we wouldn't understand what they were saying. Eventually, we deciphered it but at first, we were at a loss to get the meaning. Today we talk about a code that many of us speak, even when we shouldn't. We would love to hear your comments.

Falling Short

Many people are working themselves to exhaustion to get possessions and achieve goals that in the big picture of life, will leave us falling short.

The Queen Meets The King

On September 8, 2022, Queen Elizabeth II passed away. She was 96 years old and had reigned as Queen of England for 70 years. Longer than any other ruler in the history of England. She lived an amazing life. One of the most significant yet lesser-known events of her life occurred in 1955 when BBC television presented a live telecast from Scotland featuring a young American by the name of Billy Graham. This began a lifelong friendship that made a significant impact on Queen Elizabeth's life and pu...

A Handsome Fool

Throughout the Bible we see God's hand leading and using many people who began as unknown and seemingly insignificant. Then as they obeyed the Lord they could live lives of tremendous influence. Just think of Noah, Abraham, Moses, David and the disciples as just a few examples. But there were also many people who were in a place of great influence and power who were given opportunities to do even greater things, but instead, they messed it up and lost it all. Today we look at one of the privileg...

Service With A Smile

I recently attended a Bible Study that focused on examining our motivation for doing what we do in the church and for God. It presented some interesting perspectives on why we do what we do. Today we look at a story about two churches in a small town that were known for their competitive spirit with each other. I think you will enjoy how the Bible study and the story of the churches fit so well together. We would love to hear your comments. Send us a Text Message Support the show...

Even If...

In the book of Habakkuk we find a conversation between Habakkuk and God. Habakkuk was questioning God about God's seeming indifference to the problems that the people were facing. It seemed that God was not answering the prayers of his people at a time when they felt they needed Him the most. Listen to day as we look at the results of that conversation.
