Hour 1: War and Peace
Join us this hour as we focus on the power of the Gospel to transform not just the human heart but the entire Middle East. How do we pray for the Iranian people, who are not happy with their government? Why are so many Iranians supporting Israel? Then, what is happening to believing Jews in Israel while that tiny but significant nation is at war? How do we pray for that intensifying war as followers of Christ? We tackle those questions and more on today’s broadcast.
Hour 2: Who Am I?
Our culture has a preoccupation with self-identity. Answering the question, "Who am I?" is part of being human. Yet, through a Biblical lens, we know something has gone terribly wrong with our human nature. Brokenness happened when sin separated us from our Creator God, and the answers we seek are only obtainable when we reconnect with him. Our guest today will tell us why the Gospel is the only answer to 'finding ourselves'. When we internalize the gospel's message of restorative love, we break a perpetual loop of introspection and come to know who we are more and more every day.
