A jury of five men and seven women found a former Minneapolis officer guilty of murder and manslaughter Tuesday in the death of George Floyd. The jury, including six white people and six people of color, spent about 10 hours to reach the verdict from the three-week trial. They found Derek Chauvin, the former police officer, guilty of all three charges of second-degree murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter. Floyd, a Black man, died last May after Chauvin, a white police officer, pressed a knee on his neck for about 9 minutes 29 seconds. Floyd’s death led to nationwide protests against racism and policing in the United States. Some of the protests turned violent and led to property damage and injuries.

When it comes to natural medicines, like herbs, vitamins, and dietary supplements, you want to make sure you're getting the truth about what works, what's safe, and what's a waste of money. You need evidence-based, trustworthy, unbiased sources and studies so that you can make wise decisions for you and your family. That's where Dr. Walt Larimore comes in. He's done the heavy lifting for us! Don't miss our conversation in the 7 am ET hour. 

Plus, to any Christian who is surprised by the kind of sexual behaviors and sexual identities we're seeing emerge at the moment, here are two things to keep in mind, according to Author/Professor Dr. Carl Trueman:

• Be shocked, because this is not a trivial thing. 

• But don't be surprised, because there is a long-standing history of what's going on today and you can see how this has emerged over time. 

His latest book hit’s the bulls-eye on this. The title is The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self: Cultural Amnesia, Expressive Individualism, and the Road to Sexual Revolution. Some are calling it one of the most important Christian Books of the decade. Carl joins in the conversation in the 8 am ET hour.

Sexual exploitation comes in many forms and happens in many different settings. So what can the Church do about it? Dr. Pam MacRae heads up a program that trains students to minister to those who have been impacted by this in some way. She joins us for this very important conversation.

Every once in a while in life you find yourself in the middle of an incredible story. Sometimes those stories are epic tales of survival. Sometimes you get an opportunity to witness a great hero at work or see God's hand clearly spelling out some truth right in the middle of an otherwise ordinary day. And sometimes things happen that are so strange that you aren't sure whether to think of them as just an odd coincidence (are there really any coincidences in life?) or what some call a God Wink—a little reminder of Who is really in control. The fact is that the Lord is fully in control of the big things and the tiny things, and nothing is too small to escape His notice or care. Blogger Melissa Edgington joins us to share one of the strangest things she's ever seen in this regard.

A couple of weeks ago I (Kurt) ran across a new song that's not officially on our playlist: But God by John Waller. I had a feeling that you guys would love it. So, we made everyone who was listening an honorary member of the Kurt and Kate Music Advisory Panel. We wanted to know if you: A) Liked the song; and… B) If perhaps we played it just for you at that moment.

The response was amazing! Tons of thumbs up and some very cool “in the moment” stories. So, we thought it would be nice to “share the love” with John himself! He joined us in the 8 am ET hour.

Our good friend Trucker Mike was back with us this morning! We've all been praying for him following a battle with COVID and surgery to remove a brain tumor. Praying for his family too. Also, they're still living in a hotel until a water leak in their house can be repaired. It's been a hard 3 months for them. And yet.. the Lord is carrying them through. Truly inspiring! Check out the conversation.
