June Hunt reminds us that forgiveness does not require the other person to apologize, change, or even understand what they’ve done. Many of us grew up hearing “forgive and forget,” but June explains that isn’t biblical — God doesn’t have holy amnesia. We remember the hurt, and then we intentionally choose to release it. Forgiveness means taking someone off our emotional hook and placing them into God’s hands, trusting Him to deal with them in His time and His way. And when Jesus tells us to pray for those who hurt us, June encourages us to pray simply that God would change their heart. Even when the other person isn’t sorry — God can begin healing ours.

June Hunt explains that forgiveness isn’t instant — there are stages we walk through. First, we have to face the offense and acknowledge that the wrong really happened. Then, we must allow ourselves to feel the hurt, remembering that “the Lord is close to the brokenhearted.” Finally, forgiveness means releasing the person from our personal hook and entrusting them to God. It may not feel fair — but Jesus showed us what it means to forgive even when it isn’t. When we follow God’s lead, He is faithful to carry us through the healing.

June Hunt shares honestly about why forgiveness can feel impossible — especially when the hurt is deep or unfair. She explains that forgiving someone doesn’t mean pretending the harm didn’t matter or letting them “off the hook.” Instead, forgiveness is moving the person from our hook to God’s hook, trusting Him to deal with justice in His timing. Forgiveness isn’t about feelings — it’s about releasing the weight we were never meant to carry and allowing God to be the One who heals and restores.

June Hunt begins the hour with prayer, asking God to help us with one of the hardest things we face: forgiving when it doesn’t feel fair or easy. She invites us to bring our hurt to the Lord, trusting that He sees every wound and provides the guidance we need. This is a prayer for softening hearts, opening ears, and letting God lead us toward the freedom found in true forgiveness.

Allie Beth Stuckey and Dave Moore talk about how the cultural confusion we’re seeing today isn’t new. Scripture shows us that humanity has always wrestled with sin, identity, and the temptation to put ourselves above God. Romans 1 reminds us that when people turn away from God, disorder follows — yet the Bible also tells us that God is still at work, drawing people back to Himself. Allie encourages us to stay faithful, to pray, and to remember that God may bring revival even in the midst of cultural rebellion. Our role is to stand firm in truth and trust Him with the rest.

Allie Beth Stuckey and Dave Moore talk about how cultural disagreements today often cut right to the core — truth, goodness, and morality. These aren’t small differences, and they can create real tension in families and friendships. Allie shares that unity isn’t always about perfect agreement. Sometimes it looks like honest conversation, patience, and remembering that our job is not to win arguments, but to plant seeds of truth. God is the One who works in the heart. Our role is obedience, compassion, and faithfulness — even when the conversation feels hard.

Allie Beth Stuckey joins Dave Moore to talk about one of the biggest challenges Christians face when navigating cultural issues: fear. Not a lack of truth, but the fear of how others will respond to it. Allie shares that the Bible is actually clear on the topics dividing our culture today — identity, marriage, and the value of life — even from the very first pages of Scripture. The real hurdle is courage. We worry about being excluded, misunderstood, or labeled. But Jesus promised that following Him would not always be popular — and our calling is to seek God’s approval above all.

In the afternoon culture hour, Allie Beth Stuckey prays for courage and clarity as believers navigate a confusing and rapidly shifting world. She asks God to empower every listener—whether parent, student, worker, or grandparent—to stand for biblical truth with boldness and compassion in their daily lives.

Pastor Jack Graham speaks to the challenges of being part of the “sandwich generation”—caring for aging parents while still parenting children of your own. He reminds us of the biblical call to honor our father and mother, encouraging families to stay present, supportive, and compassionate as parents grow older. Though caregiving can be demanding, it is a meaningful act of love that God sees and blesses—and one that prevents the deep regret that comes from neglect.

Pastor Jack Graham offers encouragement for families facing strain, conflict, or the possibility of separation. He reminds us that in Christ there is always hope—God can restore what feels broken beyond repair. Through repentance, prayer, wise counsel, and the work of the Holy Spirit, marriages and homes can be renewed, healed, and strengthened again.
