Today, on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly theme, "Good News."  The good news of the Gospel without true biblical repentance isn't really good news at all.  Moody Bible Institute Professor, Dr. Eric Redmond, helped us unpack what true repentance looks like and understand the fruit of true repentance.  He authored "Say It" and "The Complete Work of Christ in John 17:4."  We heard inspiring words on Thanksgiving from MBI Professor, Dr. Bill Thrasher.  How do we cultivate a heart of gratitude all year long?  Finally, we welcomed Kelli Worrall, Professor of Communications at MBI.  She shared details about a beautiful Christmas tradition at Moody called Candlelight Carols.  It's a fun, faithful experience for all ages on December 5th and 6th.

On this Freedom Friday, freedom rang through the air as we discussed the distinction between labeling oneself as a Christian but not living like one, and actually living as a follower of Christ and disciple. In today’s culture, the word "Christian" has been used as a title to categorize the type of religion one identifies with, rather than being defined as a lifestyle that mirrors Christ’s walk. As Christians, we are called to walk as Christ did, meaning we cannot live as the world tells us to. We turned to the phone lines to ask listeners the question, “When did you change from Christian in name only to a genuine disciple of Jesus Christ?" You can listen to the highlights of today's program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.
