Are you grieving the loss of a loved one and wondering if anything will ever be safe or certain again? Pastor Jonathan Pitts, whose wife, Wynter, died unexpectedly in 2018, shares his darkest days of grief with breathtaking vulnerability. He and his four Daughters found strength and hope in the Lord, comfort in their church community, and courage in each other to carry on.
All too often, the number of "likes" received on Instagram is what determines a teen's self-worth. It's no wonder then, that 38% of young girls in the U.S. today have a diagnosable anxiety disorder. Patti Garibay, founder of American Heritage Girls (AHG), a Christian scout-type leadership development program, urges parents to prioritize their Daughters' faith formation ahead of academics or athletics. She cites research from George Barna (The Barna Group), showing that when a child participates in faith-centered activities such as AHG in addition to regularly attending church, they are 75% more likely to carry their Christian faith into adulthood.
On today's edition of Family Talk, Dr. Erwin Lutzer, author of We Will Not Be Silenced: Responding Courageously to Our Culture's Assault on Christianity, continues his discussion with Dr. Tim Clinton about how the secular left wants to advance "cultural Marxism" in America. A key component is the sexualization of children through the public schools and the media. This will lead to more premarital sex, abortions, children born out of wedlock, and ultimately more of our kids becoming susceptible to Marxist principles.
The secular left doesn't believe that America can be repaired. Instead, they say it must be destroyed and then replaced. But with what? We know that they are sympathetic to a "cultural Marxism" which would curb free speech, increase government control, destroy the nuclear family, and be hostile toward Christianity. But Dr. Erwin Lutzer, author of We Will Not Be Silenced: Responding Courageously to Our Culture's Assault on Christianity, urges Christians to advocate for truth with gentleness.
Where did we get the notion that the Christian life is a piece of cake? Where is the evidence for the "name it, claim it" theology that promises God will skip along in front of us with His great cosmi
Despite the fact that President Joe Biden has signed pro-abortion executive orders, God has been moving through the passage of "Heartbeat Bills" in 10 states (If a heartbeat is detected, the baby is protected against being aborted). On this edition of Family Talk, guest Janet Porter, author of A Heartbeat Away, says "what was once impossible is now inevitable! We are going to end abortion." She believes that God will use the Heartbeat law to eventually overturn Roe v. Wade, thanks in part to President Trump's three pro-life Supreme Court appointees.
The premise of the "Heartbeat Bill" is simple: If a heartbeat is detected, the baby is protected against being aborted. Janet Porter's work on behalf of the unborn over the past decade has resulted in 10 states passing Heartbeat Bills into law, and they're gaining in popularity. According to public opinion research from The Barna Group, 7 in 10 Americans now support these bills, including 86% of Republicans and 55% of Democrats. In Janet's latest book, A Heartbeat Away, she predicts that the Heartbeat Bill will eventually pierce the heart of Roe v. Wade.
With the election of President Joe Biden, the temptation for conservatives might be to withdraw, pull the sheets over our heads, and ask God to wake us up in four years. But Christian talk show host Janet Parshall urges us to stay rooted in the Bible, remain engaged in the culture as Christ prescribes in John 17, and fervently pray and intercede for our leaders,even if we don't especially like them or agree with their policies.
In his February newsletter entitled, "Where Do We Go from Here?," Dr. James Dobson underscores his frustration that the U.S. Supreme Court sidestepped the issue of election integrity, and that both Georgia Senate seats were won by leftist Democrats in that state's January runoff election. As a result, Americans will be burdened with a radical agenda. His advice? Like the faithful farmer who weathers the heat and rain, we who are conservative Christians must continue to "stay in the field",knowing that God gives strength to the weary.
Last year, 100,000 high school students with special needs were honored guests at a special prom called, "A Night to Shine." Today, we talk with the creative vision behind that special night: Heisman Trophy winner, former NFL Quarterback and New York Mets baseball player Tim Tebow. His new children's book, Bronco and Friends: A Party to Remember, illustrates that regardless of abilities or disabilities, all of God's children are special, wonderful, and perfectly made by our Creator.
