There is today, a crisis of stress. People are more than ever almost crippled with stress. Work, family, and even relationships outside of the home. Is there a message that stress can teach us? Should not our relationship with Christ lessen our times of stress? It should, but our sinful nature often keeps us trapped in stress. Listen carefully to the discussion Pastor and Author Chris Kennedy has with host Pastor Doug Krengel regarding stress-less living and his new book "Grace Under Pressure". You will be blessed.

This week on The Liberty Alert, join Dr. Gregory Seltz and his guest, FRC’s David Closson, Director of the Center for Biblical Worldview, talking about his article, “4 Compelling Reasons for the Senate to Oppose Redefining Marriage.” In lightning speed, our culture not only is seeking to “redefine” marriage, it is intentionally destroying the notion of marriage between a man and woman for life (the man-woman-child….trinity of civility) as having any unique value to the culture. With crime and poverty in our cities due to the destruction of marriage, with brokenness, divorce, even disease as a consequence of the libertine sexuality of the 60’s, isn’t it time for the church to bless people with God’s view on these things….even in the public square? Yes, and let’s make sure our politicians do the right thing too. Listen in for the political, the cultural, the moral, and the faith perspective on the vital question of how we can be “Good, useful” citizens in God’s hands in service to the God’s preserving and saving work for all. And be challenged along with us as we continue to grow in the wisdom needed to be 2 Kingdom citizens for the country we love. Join us!

Week in review, talking about cultural engagement with a 2KG mindset to bless the culture amidst the chaos, and undergird the mission of the Church?

-How can believers NOT be discouraged when the culture is openly anti-Christian in ways that it has never been?

-Is “defending” the authority of God’s 10 commandments by definition, “discouraging?”

-How can the differentiation of God’s disciplining, calling to repentance word, and His

gracious saving word better define our ENCOURAGING VOICE?

-Why will it take both humility and courage to be that voice for others?
