Hour 1: The Perilous Fight
Does America no longer feel like home? Widespread divorce rates, the erosion of traditional marriage, the popular rise of radical ideologies, attacks on faith, and government interference are only a few of the factors contributing to the struggles of families in our culture. And because of the importance of healthy families to every part of our national life, the breakdown of the family threatens to rob us of the country we love. But it doesn't have to be this way.
Our guest fears we are losing the country we love. He joins us today to give us the facts, inspiration, and theory-to-action answers we need to restore a key foundation of America: the family. Strong families are the cornerstone of strong communities. Strong communities build a strong nation. Only when we prioritize the family as an institution established by God will we proudly remain the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Hour 2: The Expectation Gap
Do you truly experience the promises Jesus gave to those who follow him—the benefits of peace, freedom, and love? The fact is that many of us struggle with a gap between what we believe about God and how we encounter him in our everyday lives. We don't want our faith to be merely conceptual—we want to experience it viscerally—and yet we often come up against one or more of these major gaps:
· I believe God loves me, but I don't feel it.
· I believe God is with me, but I don't see him.
· I thought I'd be further along in my spiritual progress by now.
Join us to learn some tangible tools for engaging with God in a deeper, more soul-satisfying way. Discover patterns that keep you spiritually stuck so that you can replace them with habits and practices that will lead to a more vibrant faith life.
