Chris Fabry Live! - 40 Days of Prayer, Day One Hour 1

Wed, 01 Sep 2010 06:03:00 -0600

It’s the first day of our 40 Days of Prayer initiative. This was suggested originally by the National Religious Broadcasters and their emphasis is on 2 Chronicles 7:14. We add to that and take us in a slightly different direction. Our theme during the month will be “Fix Your Eyes on Jesus.” And we’ll be studying Philippians 2:1-11. Join with us and pray and meditate on God’s Word.

For daily devotionals about fixing our eyes on Jesus during these 40 Days of Prayer, visit Chris' blog.

Chris Fabry Live! - Your Secret Name // Glenn Beck and Evangelicals Hour 1

Mon, 30 Aug 2010 06:03:00 -0600

Monday, we find out about your secret name. When you think of yourself, your life, all your experiences, a lot of the baggage of sin puts a label on us. Kary says, that doesn’t have to be. Don’t think of yourself as a loser, as a failure, as a second-class Christian. Find out your secret name. Plus, an honest discussion about the rally in Washington, D.C. this past weekend. Evangelicals were featured speakers and were part of the crowd. While many resonate with restoring honor and getting back to the intent of the framers of our Constitution, some have reservations about the “Jesus” of Glenn Beck. Does this matter in today’s world? Join us for the discussion.

Chris Fabry Live! - True Religion // Hearing God's Voice Hour 1

Tue, 24 Aug 2010 06:03:00 -0600

What is true religion? Palmer Chinchen says it’s a process of pouring ourselves out for others. And that process yields radically transformed lives. And, we take a question from a listener who says, God told me I would stay single for the rest of my life. He’s relieved he won’t have to support a family, but wonders, was that really from God? These questions and more on Tuesday.

Chris Fabry Live! - Humanitarian Jesus // How to Change the World Hour 1

Mon, 23 Aug 2010 06:03:00 -0600

Was Jesus a Humanitarian? If so, what kind was He? We talk with Christian Buckley and Ryan Dobson about the insights and struggles related to meeting human needs that Christians encounter. And, how can one person change the world? We hear about some major changes in the Southern Baptist Convention made this summer. And we turn the mirror towards ourselves, to take the focus from "out there" to "in here."

Chris Fabry Live! - Dueling Banjos and Spiritual Distractions // Four Questions Hour 1

Fri, 20 Aug 2010 06:03:00 -0600

We begin with a Friday Sigh and dueling banjos as Chris Wheeler joins Chris Fabry for a musical interlude. And Chris Fabry has some things on his heart since we’ve had conversations about illegal immigration, the mosque in New York, same-sex marriage legal decisions. It’s always a tricky thing to figure out how to engage our culture on issues of social and cultural and political importance, and still keep our focus on the gospel. Chris wants to give you his philosophy of avoiding spiritual distractions.

Plus, a new idea for the program. We have four segments for the show, each about 10 minutes long. Chris throws out a different question for you to answer in each segment.
1) How has the Friday Sigh helped you in life?
2) What verse of Scripture has encouraged you recently and why are you holding onto it?
3) You can ask any person from the Old Testament a question. Whom would you choose and what’s the question? and
4) The Mystery Question. Don't miss this special Friday program!

Thu, 19 Aug 2010 06:03:00 -0600

Some of you are doing one of the hardest things you will ever do—letting go and watching that innocent bundle of joy you had 18 years ago walk into a college dorm room. We want to hear your stories of saying goodbye to your college-age children. Plus, many young people are leaving the church. But will "being cool" keep them there? We talk about the perils of pushing a Christianity that tries to be cool with Brett McCracken.

Wed, 18 Aug 2010 06:03:00 -0600

Do you feel like God has given you gifts and abilities to use for his glory, but don’t have any idea what to do about it? You don’t know how to get from where you are to where you believe God wants you to be. We want you to hear the story of Ron Rios who works with Wycliffe Associates. The story arc of his life is amazing, from the Air Force to pharmaceutical sales to seminary—to Bible translation. And then, the story of a man well known to listeners to WGN in Chicago. Wes Bleed was news director there for many years…we talk about his story on Wednesday.
