Your Place

We want to thank you for taking the time to listen to our show.  The last couple of weeks Wild Bill has been in rare form and I you can tell from our sign on song tonight that this week it no different.  Last week we had a manifistation of the spririt of God live on the show.  We are excited that God would visit us while we are on the air in this manner.  I hope that it was a blessing to you as well.  If you missed last weeks show you can listen to it and all of our past shows in the archives.  These shows can be downloaded to just about any downloadable listening device.  Wild Bill was talking to me on something about old television game shows.  I seem to remember the Price is Right and Let's make a deal in that conversation.  Plus something about how most of the American people live in a game show mentality even when saying they are living for God.  I do not have a clue where he is going with this so I warn you to hang on to your seats.  As always this show never claims to be the final word and we open up the end of the show for comments and questions.  To those that listen live and want to make a comment...just push number one on your phone.  This will not place you live on the air but will display your phone number on our board.  You will be identified by the last four numbers of your phone number when we place you live on the air.

Last week we talked about how the show format is not one that makes people want to share their thoughts on the topic discussed.  The reason stated was because we cover all of the aspects of the topic.  I wish!  There was a scripture quoted last week that I am reminded of how we quote a scripture as a fix all to a situation without applying what we know of God in the scripture verse. We are going to share a couple of these scriptures and allow you to share your insights on what it means.  Plus we are looking for you to share scriptures that you also think we take out of context of what we know of God and His relationship with man.  The real test of how this is going to work is going to be based on how much interaction we get from our listeners.  If people do not take part this could be a real short show!  So have your bible and opinion ready.  For example the scripture tells us that unless we come as a little child we cannot please God.  That is not the exact words.  But the way Wild Bill acts is not what this scripture is talking about.  Child like and simple minded was not what God was saying.  So what was he saying there?  That is what we are wanting to hear from you and other scriptures like this.

I got a lot of feedback from people both pro and con on the use of some of the people we played parts of their speeches on the show.  Tonight we are going to look at how or if some of the things we learned there should be looked at when considering the modern day church.  As always we want to hear your thoughts.  As we look at rhetoric be sure and understand that this does not mean there is not substance to what is being said or considered when we are projecting our rhetoric to the world.  I would encourage all of you to download your favorite episodes of the show.  This could be our last month to be on the air.  This is not for sure but want to give you as much warning as possible.  The cost keeps going up to keep a decent time slot.  We will keep you updated as we get more information.

Wild Bill has mentioned how that his Fortune business has brought him closer to his walk with God.  Well, we are at that silly time again were people are trying to tell others which political party has the mind of God.  Tonight we are going to use the history of politics to establish our point.  I think it was Ronald Regan that said we could loose our freedoms in one generation.  So Wild Bill thought he would have some fun and entertain you while sharing actual speeches from our nations Presidents starting with William McKinley in 1896, followed by Calvin Coolidge, Theodore Roosevelt, followed by FDR, going into Bill Clinton while President, then we will follow this with George W. Bush.  This will be followed by a Clinton speech made in 2006 when asked how we went from a great economy to the current situation.  We will hear a little from our current President.  One of these speeches will include when he said we are no longer a Christian Nation several years ago while representing the state of Illinois.  This will be followed by a news cast on the current election regarding politics and religion.  One of the guest is an atheist and the other is not.  I ask that you take note to the tone of these political leaders and the content over time.  If you study history you know these things but it is just that...history.  The church has changed with the times also.  Here we are going to the source of the leaders of their time.  In faith issues we have the Bible as a direct source.  Next week we are going to take this topic to a spiritual level.  So have fun tonight and next week buckle your seat belts as we take you down memory lane and what the Bible says about this.  As always we look forward to hearing your comments at the end of the show.

I recently heard a message on the radio and then saw some of the same information on some christian DVD's.  The focal point of the message was about real friendships, self esteem, importance of healthy relationships, and how church work is not always God's work.  I was surprised when the radio show mentioned that all most people have issues with self esteem.  There are several self esteem issues which is how most people miss this in themselves.   The sad side of this is that there are always people who will take advantage instead of being a true friend.  This happens even in the church!   Even in the Bible! People are encouraged and then pressured into church work to build relationships only to find it can be a hinderance instead.   Not just with family and friends...but also with God. Wild Bill has shared information about how Fortune has helped him with his walk with God.  This preacher's topic  gave him some insight into his business.   When you think of balance this is logical that faith teachings should carry over and help your work.   I became painfully aware in this radio sermon how important it is to have positive relationships. Not fake friends but  Real Friends! The Fortune business is all about establishing relationships, growing as a person, and building wealth by connecting into income streams that are already part of most people's cash flow.  Tonight we are going to share with you a broad look at relationships and Fortune!  The balance to this is one that may surprise you. I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

How many gun slingers do we have listening tonight? If you do not know what that means then you need to listen to last weeks show.  Tonight you are going to hear another plain spoken thought on a concept of life, and living for God. Wild Bill says that he hates to hear his voice all of the time on the show and we can relate.  So tonight the show is not going to be by wild Bill but it will speak from the heart of Wild Bill wants to share with all of you.  We have a surprise speaker for you tonight.  I hope you enjoy what he has to share and we look forward to what  you have to add to the end of the show as always. For those that have made comments on how they feel like they have been being hit left and right with some of our topics...tonight we have a message to let you know that you are not different from anybody else.  As dad would say there are people who have faults and then there are liars.  Of course Dad was the exception!  We pray that you may learn a little about yourself and have a smile on your face in the process!

Well that was different! Sort of lets us know Wild Bill is going to do something different with this show! Two weeks ago the blogtalk system crashed and the show did not play.  I tried to keep the show going while trying at the same time to figure out what was going on.  I was sending out S.O.S. to God and anybody else I could get in touch with!  I found myself all alone, by myself, without aid, and was coming up with my own definition of fear and wisdom.  For those people who called to listen to the 8 minute archive of this show I am sure you could hear the fear in my voice.   I got Wild Bill to delete it from the archives.  You got the repeat of that scheduled show the next week.  Wild Bill talked about letting down the fence and letting it rip, but he admitted to me that he still felt like he walked all the way around the barn in trying to make the points of where God was dealing with him.  Tonight, you are not going to be even that lucky.  Wild Bill is going to go into the world of his mind and call it thinking outside of the box.  For those of you that are sane. I am sure you might have a different name for it!  But since he is the host of this show we are going to allow him a little rope.  Then we are going to open up the mics to ask you to be his sounding board and try to salvage this show.  I know that after hearing from his mind that you will all be praying for me and the children!    All fun aside lets try to keep our minds on God and we might find that even in the mind of Wild Bill a few nuggets!  So buckle your seat belts and hang on!

Blog talk crashed last week and we had a 8 minute show!  Thank all of you who tried to listen to the show.  For those of you that this is your first time to listen all you have to do is push one on your phone if you have something you would like to share.  Pushing one on your phone does not put you live at that time.  You will be announced by the last four numbers of your phone number and you will be placed live on the show when that happens.   On this show, we encourage you to make the word of God your main reference in molding your life.  We also want to warn you not to decide what is practical in developing your own set of right and wrongs that you  think are pleasing God.  What if you are wrong?  How serious is your salvation to you?  Since God is the creator of everything, and the author of our faith, I think his word is our best source on how to live.  But I ask you this?  Is the power in the word or the application of the word?  The battle for man is the application without our amendements.  God has blessed Wild Bill with Blog Talk Mom and me to point out his errors and try to keep him on the straight and narrow.    Sometimes it feels like it is a full time job!  But we love him and so we are faithful to keep at it.  You married ladies and mothers know what I am saying!   Wild Bill ask's all of you this question;  What is a lie?  Think about that and hear this!  2Th 2:10-12  And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11  And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12  That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.  Still laughing?  Is your eternal sould important to you!  So what is the lie?

Hello everybody and welcome to your place.  Last week we had a test of a new system for our show and I think we can all agree that the system worked very well.  We all need to say a prayer for Wild Bill in this process.  As our speakers have all learned it is harder then you would think it could be to share a thought or topic into a telephone where you cannot see the people you are speaking to.  How many times have you been talking on your cell phone only to find that somewhere in your coversation you have dropped the call?  On this show many times it feels exactly the same as you have heard our speakers stop talking in mid sentence to ask if we are all still here!  Talk about faith!  Because of Wild Bills schedule he is trying to record his part of the show at the end of his work week, after working all night long.  He has confessed that it is hard to keep up with what he has already said because there is no feedback, no start up music to listen to, and none of the group prayer cover that we can all adjust to the flow of the sprirt during a show.  Wild Bill asked that you forgive him if he repeats himself or worse is having trouble making his point clear.  This week we are going to continue this flow of talking personal wisdom, by  looking at some of the characteristics of God we should be very aware of when it comes to man.  I encourage you to read these scriptures again!.  The goal is to get you to think outside of the box.  I think we can all agree that there are times we put ourselves on the throne ahead of God.  God help us!     Everywhere we look we can see how Satan is taking the battle to a new level.  Do we have anybody to stand in the gap?  Will we run to face the giant as David did?  Or will the things of God become common to where we are no longer changing?  The bible talks about those who will not be moldable!

You all know how Wild Bill can get a something burning in his brain and cannot get it out.  Sometimes this is a good thing and other times we have considered calling the men in white coats with butterfly nets!  We had a show on Wisdom not long ago that Blog talk mom and Starla did an excellant job of bringing to the show.  Since that time Wild Bill has had another one of those nagging perceptions that has just about driven most of his friends up the wall.  Tonight we are going to get the first part of this and I am afraid there will be many future shows regarding having wisdom when it comes to how we live.  Tonight you are going to get a lot of scripture text.  So I recommend that you take notes.  The focus on these shows is to make sure that we have not taken the word of God and made it common to the point that our lifestyle is no longer pleasing to God.  As you know Bill has a different work schedule so we are trying to use some new technology that will limit some of the response from Wild Bill.  I think I just heard a large applause from all over the world without the use of my sound board.
