It's Freedom Friday on Karl and Crew Mornings! Today, we wrapped up our "Back to Basics" week with a discussion on the word salvation. To get a complete picture of salvation, we need to know the true impact that sin has in our lives. Our Scripture reference was Ephesians 2:1-8. This passage does a good job of showing just how much we need salvation. We also talked about salvation with our guest, Dr. David Finkbeiner, Professor of Theology at Moody Bible Institute and co-author of the book, 50 Most Important Theological Terms. Listen to the highlights of today's program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.

Today on Karl and Crew Mornings, we continued with our theme, "Angels and Demons." We discussed praying in the Spirit versus praying in the flesh.

We featured a great article by John Piper called, "How do we Pray in the Spirit?" Our Guest this morning was David Finkbeiner, Professor of Theology at Moody Bible Institute and co-author of the book, 50 Most Important Theological Terms.

Today on Karl and Crew Mornings, we kicked off our theme for the week: "Angels and Demons." What role do demons play in our lives today? And what authority do we have as Christ followers over demonic forces? Our Scripture reference was Ephesians 6:10-12. Paul calls us to put on the armor of God so that we can withstand the enemy's attacks. Our guest was Dr. Erwin Lutzer, Pastor Emeritus of Moody Church, author, and teaching host of Running to Win. One way to ward off demonic attacks is to "Deal swiftly and strongly with sin." We read a passage from 2 Chronicles that illustrates this perfectly. Listen for that passage along with all the highlights of today's program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.
