Now What?
Today, on Karl and Crew, we kicked off a new weekly theme, "Who Are You?" and discussed what's next as a secure follower of Christ. Being secure in God's love and eternal security doesn't mean a life of wild abandonment. What do we do? How do we live? Our special guest was Dr. Michael Rydelnik, MBI Professor, host of Open Line, and author. He unpacked one of his blogs called "Now That I'm Secure...". Karl also shared a valuable lesson and story about his grandfather. You can hear the highlights of today's program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.

Grace and Restoration
Today, on Karl and Crew, we concluded our study of David. The scripture reference was II Samuel, chapters 11 and 12. We discussed David's fall with Bathsheba and the consequences from this sin. On this Freedom Friday, we also discussed God's redemptive Grace. Our special guest was Dr. Winfred Neely, retired Vice President and Academic Dean of Moody Theological Seminary, adjunct professor, pastor, and author.

The Complexity of David
Today, on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly focus on David by discussing the description of David and the complexity of his nature with Dr. Jim Coakley. We turned to 1 Samuel 16 and 17 to deeply analyze David’s characteristics and word choice from his younger years and how it led to his decision-making as an adult. Dr. Jim Coakley is a Bible professor at Moody Bible Institute, a current elder with 180 Chicago, and a former Senior Pastor. He has also written several books and commentaries, including “14 Fresh Ways to Enjoy the Bible.” You can hear the highlights of today’s program on Karl and Crew Showcast.

Praise Like Nobody is Watching
Today, on Karl and Crew, we dove deeper into the life of King David and discussed his unapologetic form of praise: dance. King David was known for his creative abilities in music, writing, and dance, and when others tried to make him self-conscious about it, he was unbothered. We turned to 2 Samuel 6:21-22 with Dr. Ryan Cook to see David’s persistence, intentionality, and boldness with his praise. Dr. Cook is an Old Testament and Hebrew Professor at Moody Theological Seminary (MTS). He is also a key writer for “Today in the Word”, Moody Bible Institute’s free daily devotional, and a contributor to the “Moody Handbook of Messianic Prophecy” and several academic publications. Dr. Cook was also recently appointed as Dean of Faculty at MTS. He also has a book coming out in June called “Talking with God: Daily Readings in the Psalms.” We also talked with Dr. William West about how the Bible and Science go hand in hand. Dr. West is a Harvard and Johns Hopkins-trained oncologist and researcher for advanced cancer care. He founded the West Clinic and has grown it from a single practice into a network of five locations. He has also written “Sacred Science: Understanding Divine Creation”.
