How do we make sense of what we hear on the news about the discovery of life on other planets? How many of these claims are blown out of proportion or exaggerated? And how close are scientists to finding life on other planets?  Today our guest helps listeners discern the difference between science fiction and scientific fact when it comes to the search for life on other planets.  He will answer your questions about life on other planets, including the BIG ONE -  IF scientists find life on other planets, then would that disprove Christianity?

For most of us it is not the “ifs” but the “whens”: when I notice the first signs; when we mourn the role reversal; when my children need me too; or when I don’t know how to pray. Those are just a few of the fifty-two reflections on the changes, challenges, and blessings of loving your parent as they grow older. Their lives – and yours – begin to change. Knowing that you are not alone, that others have been where you are, is encouraging and uplifting. Join us as we learn how to care for those who cared for us. 

There is a new book out that pulls together a group of Christ-followers to share Oswald Chambers quotes that stirred their souls, and how those words affected their walk with God. This eclectic group--from authors and musicians to doctors and CEOs--has one thing in common: their faith was deepened by something they read in My Utmost for His Highest. Chambers' writing make people hungry for God's Word--and for God himself. Today we hear from an expert on Oswald Chambers.

The Bible is explicit: We live in a world of distinct opponents; our very lives are a battle. Yet too many Christians lose more battles than they win and endure their walk with God rather than enjoy it because they don't recognize the enemy when they see it. More importantly, they have no idea how to respond. While society tells us we can react simply, the truth is that a wish, a hope, and a prayer are not the best responses to attacks from those who stand between us and the Father. Christians must be strategic in their reactions to these clearly defined enemies, learning how to fight biblically and effectively rather than just sincerely. Join us as our guest provides a guidebook for defense that is simple, biblical, and transferable. Come with your questions on the warfare around us.
