We Will Not Be Silenced: Conversations with Dr. Erwin Lutzer and Dr. Jim Coakley

Today, on Karl and Crew, we kicked off our weekly theme, “We Will Not Be Silenced,” with discussions about standing firmly on our faith. We then had Dr. Erwin Lutzer join us to discuss how believers stand up for their faith in today’s counterculture world. Dr. Lutzer is Pastor Emeritus of Moody Church. He is a clear expositor of the Bible and is featured on two radio programs: Running to Win and Songs in the Night. We then had Dr. Jim Coakley join us to discuss the church’s commitment to Jesus, despite the influence of political or governmental forces. He also shared about an upcoming trip he will be leading in Turkey and Greece from March 4th to 17th, 2026. Dr. Jim Coakley is a Professor of Bible at Moody Bible Institute. He is a current elder with 180 Chicago and a former Senior Pastor. He is also a member of the Evangelical Theological Society. We then turned to the phone lines to ask our listeners the question: “What words did you hear that the Spirit of God used to save your soul?”  You can listen to the highlights of today's program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.
