We want to know what verse of Scripture is your life verse. Now, we know that we’re not told in Scripture to choose one of these—and some have even shunned such a thing. But there are different times and seasons when God’s Word just jumps out at you and you say, that’s what I need. That’s what I want to live by. If you have such a verse and you’d like to share it, join us for the final program of 2009 on Chris Fabry Live! Plus we get an update on Urbana 2009, a missions conference for college students.

Wednesday we feature an important topic for all of us. Shawn Lantz has a new study out that deals with jealousy. Living with unmet desires is what she calls it—but this is a topic we could easily talk about here after Christmas—or any time of year, as we compare ourselves and our possessions and families and churches, and even faith, with others.

We welcome back world traveler Tricia McMillan from her Christmas sojourn on Tuesday. We hear what happened on that whirlwind tour. Plus, Chris wrote a blog that struck a chord with some. It’s about the questions of life and “not knowing,” and coming to an understanding about what life is really all about.

It’s Christmas Eve and do we have a program for you! We call it the hardest Christmas ever—and the best Christmas ever. We hear stories from you about things that happened in the past—lean Christmases, but memorable ones.

Host: Chris Fabry

When you were a child at Christmas, did you hear stories from your parents or grandparents about growing up in the Depression? They talked about how hard it was, and how, if they simply received an orange, they were ecstatic. With hard times upon us, Chris Fabry introduces us to a friend of his who grew up on a sharecropper’s farm. The stories we hear from her help get things in perspective.

Remember when you were a kid and you’d get with your friends at this time of year? What’s the one question you’d ask? “What are you gonna get for Christmas?” Well, we want to ask that same question to you, in a little different way. What do you REALLY want this Christmas? Don’t miss a special reairing of out Christmas List edition!

During this week of Christmas, we're bringing you some special programs. We talked with Leeland in August and we wanted you to hear from two members of the band, brothers Leeland and Jack Mooring. You may know their songs “Sound of Melodies” and “Tears of the Saints”—they have a new recording just out, Love is on the Move, and we hear some of it live in the studio.

It’s one week before Christmas and we want to turn our thoughts to music, and the words of hymns and carols. What words or what line in a Christmas song stands out to you? “Very God; begotten, not created.” “Let loving hearts enthrone him.” “His law is love and His Gospel is peace.” We have so much to talk about, and it won’t be the same without you! 

Host: Chris Fabry

We want to talk about an important subject that you may not associate with Christmas, but we think it’s an important one—having an affair. If you think you’re not at risk for infidelity, watch out. You could be a target. Pastor and author Dave Carder gives some stories from the front lines of the battle, and it may help you avoid a huge mistake.

On Wednesday, we talk with a man who has seen life from the gang perspective. Now he’s on the other side, working with those who are at high risk or who are trying to get out of gang life. We take your questions and look at what he sees as the answer to some of the inner city’s biggest problems.

We have been looking forward to our next Chris Fabry Live! for months—literally, because we get to spend an hour with the new president of Moody Bible Institute, Dr. Paul Nyquist. What is his vision for the school that D.L. Moody founded? And how will that vision affect the church at large and those who want to continue to reach the world for Christ? Answers to these questions and more.

It’s the week before Christmas week—can you believe it?? And on Chris Fabry Live! we want to help take some of the stress out of these days. We hear a story of a man who hated the commercial aspects of Christmas and what his family did in response one year. This story has inspired people to "give something different" for Christmas since 1982. You won't want to miss it! 

Host: Chris Fabry

Christianity is a love story set amid war. And the best place to see that happening is in marriage. John and Stasi Eldredge say marriage is “a living, breathing portrait laid out before the eyes of the world so that they might see the story of the ages.” And your enemy does not want your marriage to survive. Don’t miss a candid conversation, just in time for a stressful time of year.

Christmas is one of my favorite times of year—I love just about everything about it. But in order for you to have a “good Christmas,” you have to prepare, right? Dr. Bill Thrasher of Moody Bible Institute wants to help us prepare our children, ourselves, and our hearts for the real meaning of Christmas. If you can take a few minutes out of your day and join us, I think you’ll be encouraged.

In a world where Christmas means holiday sales, tinsel, lights, and presents, we want to focus on the true meaning of Christmas. We do that with Christian Research Institute President and radio voice Hank Hanegraaff. As you think about the list of things to do and things to get, the best preparation you can do is to prepare your heart.

Thursday we meet a listener named John. You may identify with his story. He was privy to the good life: chief of staff to a U.S. Congressman, successful businessman. But one day the FBI showed up at his door and said he was under investigation. The rest of the story is about what God can do with someone going down on life’s escalator.

How is Christmas going to be different for you this year? Or, do you want Christmas to be different and you’re taking some steps to make that happen? Perhaps there’s been a big loss in your life. Some of you may be deployed by Christmas. And maybe you want this Christmas to mean a little more than just the tinsel, lights, and presents. We hear from producer Tricia McMillan and you!

Chuck Colson and other evangelical leaders have signed the Manhattan Declaration. They feel it is time for Christians from many traditions to come together to help combat a decaying culture to stand for life and freedom. Last week, Dr. John MacArthur's response to the declaration was cautionary. He said it does damage to the cause evangelicals hold most dear, "the gospel." We talk about the issue with former Moody Bible Institute President Dr. Michael Easley and take your questions and comments.

It's a Happy Thanksgiving broadcast from all of us at Chris Fabry Live! A year ago we opened the phone lines and asked listeners about some trial, some difficulty, some challenge—and how God has used that to make you more Christlike and more thankful. What we heard is worthy of hearing again, and we'll do that Thursday. Join us for some encouragement on the Thanksgiving edition of Chris Fabry Live!

He lived a double life. He worked at a Christian college by day, but in his spare time he cased banks and robbed them. Wednesday, Ken Cooper tells his true story about his life of crime, what caused him to turn to it, and what caused him to turn away from it. He and his wife now minister to those formerly incarcerated. I think it will encourage you. Don’t miss Wednesday’s Chris Fabry Live!

With the holidays coming up, we want you to think about something important, something we think is on the heart of God—invisible people. No, not your invisible friend you talk to, but the widows, orphans, and people who have fallen through the social cracks in our churches. Author and speaker Miriam Neff helps us identify and reach out to those invisibles.
