Joining Mark Zimmerman, morning host at WKJA - 91.9 fm Barberton, OH for a conversation about the two things we shouldn't talk about in public...religion and politics.

Our Conversation was spurred on by a post on the Gospel Coalition: Are Christians More Confident in Politics Than in Christ?

The Bible shows us many examples of Jesus’s emotions: love, compassion, righteous anger, sadness, and more.

In this series, we’ll look at how Jesus processed emotions and how following His example can help us see how our own emotions can be used to fulfill God’s purpose in our lives.

This week we wrap up the series with a look at what to do when you are sad and need joy.  Many times the feeling of sadness comes when we've drifted away from God.  We know that emotion can have an impact on our lives.  

We will unpack three simple truths that will help you experience Joy in your walk with Jesus as we look at the story of the Prodigal Son and the older brother.

Dear Lord,

I come to You today to ask for help. You are my everything. Lord, I need rest. I give You my worry. Take it, Lord. I accept Your peace, love, and understanding. Help me to turn to You and not to myself. Help me to stop doing and start trusting. Help me to wait on Your answers, because I know that they are good. Give me wisdom, hope, and peace. Thank you, Lord, for Your patience and grace. I love You, and I know You love me so much more than I could ever imagine.        Amen.

Today let's look at how we find God in our pain with a  story from the Gospel of Luke.

We would love to hear more about you...please share your story here.

It is always a great morning when you're on the air with kingdom ally - Mark Zimmerman at 91.9fm WKJA  (we were missing co-host  Gabe Collins who was on vacation).

So we're back in front of the microphone today to talk about a VERY interesting article from The Gospel Coalition this weekend.

In a day of much uncertainity we need to be confident in what the Church is all about.

We know we’re better together than apart. Yet so many of us are feeling disconnected and even some have feelings of hopeless. We just know something is missing—we need to be confident that in the uncertainty God will build his church...and nothing will prevail against. The days ahead are just that...but in this moment we can be confident.

Join us as we look at another way to see Proverbs 31...seeing the Church in a whole new light. As we look at why the church is so important and how it plays a key role in our spiritual growth and health your invited to share your story of what God has done and is doing! Share it here!

CALLING: It’s not just what we’re good at, or what we choose to do.

Calling is a sacred word that speaks to our innermost beings. We need to be reminded that calling isn’t as much about “what” as it is “who.”

In order to discover God’s true calling on our lives, we need to focus less on what we’re doing and more on what we’re becoming: fully devoted followers of Christ...and claiming it!

What do you want to do with your life? It’s a question that we are asked from the time we are kids. In this current season God is calling us to a new and deeper understanding of what are lives should be about.

This week we have a conversation with Alex Fehr who is serving in ministry with Campus Outreach on the campus of The Ohio State University.
