Episodes

Unexpected Entertainment 03.06.2024

Be sure that entertainment in which you initiate, or you participate in is within the scope of its purpose, and be careful, and don’t create problems for other citizens.

Early Detection 31.05.2024

This should remind all of us that early detection and treatment is important in any medical situation.

Pranks 30.05.2024

It’s always best in life to “do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” That way everybody comes out a winner.

Tiptoe the Donkey 29.05.2024

If a donkey can take his blessings and use them to become a blessing, how are you using your talents to be a blessing?

Which Road to Take 28.05.2024

 Today, when you make a big decision, be sure that it is the road that God has chosen for you. It could be leading you to the promised land.

13 Hands 27.05.2024

 Memorial Day is a day when we pause to give thanks to the people who fought and died for the things we have.

Missing Guitar 24.05.2024

Paul McCartney and the Beatles did pretty good without the guitar. It is still in remarkable condition and making good music. Remember it’s never too late for you to make meaningful music.

Proper Conversations 23.05.2024

Before you make a decision, be sure you know all of the facts involved and what the implications of a decision might be and be sure that everybody is informed so they can make a good decision.

Biological Mother 22.05.2024

You don’t have to look for your Heavenly Father because He is always looking for you. Reunite with your Heavenly Father and make up for lost time for a great relationship.

Age Factor 21.05.2024

Whether you are eight or eighty years old, what is God asking you to accomplish at this point in your life? Don’t let age be an excuse.

U8 20.05.2024

What we really need is not a new vehicle but a biblical faith that can get us through any situation in life. That kind of faith is not only more important but a whole lot cheaper than the U8.

Over the Guardrail 17.05.2024

The truck driver’s life was saved because some firefighters were willing to risk their lives to save her. They saw a need and they were ready to meet it. When you see a need, are you ready to meet it?

Concession Email 16.05.2024

He hoped he would be able to send out a victory email, but his lack of confidence and attention to details evidently contributed to his coming in last in the 11-person contest. I encourage you to do something significant, but do it with confidence and with excellence.

Stolen Horse 15.05.2024

Some people think sin can be hidden or overlooked. Don’t be stupid like the Polish man. A terrible decision will have a terrible consequence.  Avoid doing dumb things.

People Pleasing 14.05.2024

Pleasing God leads to a fulfilling, abundant life on this earth, and the greatest rewards in heaven. Who are you pleasing today—people or God?

Size 23 Shoe 13.05.2024

 I have a hunch that Shaq enjoyed giving those shoes as much as Or'el enjoyed receiving them. When you see a need today, are you willing to try to meet it?

Things Change 10.05.2024

God’s rules as stated in the Ten Commandments have not changed. Obedience to them is not optional. The words still mean the same. Be sure you know what’s changeable and what is unchangeable.

Giving, Not Getting 09.05.2024

Judas sold his soul for thirty pieces of silver. He hanged himself. What are you selling your soul for today?

Dead Fish 08.05.2024

It will take you out of service for a while to undergo a good cleansing, but you can’t make it safely carrying dead fish items. God is in the clean-up business.

"Non-Consensual Act” 07.05.2024

Couldn’t we spend our time, energy, and money dealing with important things rather than trying to determine if a girl consented to the kiss of a sailor over 75 years ago? Focus today on things that really make a difference in this life and for eternity.

Deception 06.05.2024

Have a really good eagle eye by taking your prompts from the Bible. The Bible is never deceptive.

Identity Theft 03.05.2024

Don’t try to steal somebody else’s identity and pretend to be them—if you want to imitate somebody and become like them, Jesus Christ is the perfect model to copy.

“Literally Anybody Else” 02.05.2024

Try to be creative to see what you could do for that given situation. I don’t recommend running for president, but I do hope you exercise your privilege to vote.

Tetris 01.05.2024

You can do it by receiving Jesus Christ who is the answer. He is the code cracker and the leader into an abundant life. Follow Him.

Illegally Wed 30.04.2024

A marriage is not a liturgical ceremony—it’s a commitment that is sanctioned by God. I hope your marriage meets that criteria.
